The BuRIEIaH Rock DRIIL.-In re.
gard to the aforementioned highly
popular and successful style Of drill,
together with the compressor in con.
nection with It, we will state for pub
lie information, as showing their su-
perior efficiency, that In the famous
| Hoosac Tunnel, where they are used
exclusively In preference to any 9TH
err, that the following Is their
record for the month OF May :
Headings advanced from from east and
westward los feet; from west and
eastward 100 feet. Advance during
NAV, 275 feet. Total lengths opened
to June LIST, 9 1897 feet. Rock remain.
ing to BIO penetrated, 1864 feet, being
9G feet less than one-third of n mile.
The Burleigh drill Is making a very
good record In the mines of the Com.
Stock, and bids fair to supercede all
other inventions IN that line. Mr.. j..
c. Parke, agent. at Virginia City, will
be pleased to give all desired lnforma-
ton on the subjec. and most OF our
principal mining Superintendents,
testify willingly to the superior merits
and efficiency of tho Burleigh Drill.
A MALICIOUS LIE.-The story that
Reinstein & Co., the famous Gold
Hill clothiers, whose store is In May
nard's Block, Main street, have a
whole shipload of choice clothing from
Euronc. nv way of Carson River, In
order to keep their stock good. Is a
dirty, malicious lie, the offspring of an
envious, m%alevolent heart. 1t 10 well
known that a ship cannot, and never
has arrived here by that route, hence
the absurdity Of the story. Reinstcin
& Co. do not import clothing from
Europe. but direct from their own
manufacturers In San Francisco and
the East, made to order, Of the very
best materials and In the latest styles.
They believe In home manufactures
and home trade. Drop In and exam
Inc their new stock Of goods.
PERsoNAL.-We had the pleasure
this morning Of meeting with Mr.. NJ.
Isaacs, of the firm of Isaacs & Gross,
wholesale clothiers, San Francisco.
who arrived this morning on n short
visit OF inspection to the land
of sagebrush and silver. He has never
been here before, therefore sees much
in the way of novelty to attract
his attention to say nothing Of the Vir-
ginia and Truckee Railroad, which he
thinks Is about as crooked as the road
to wealth.

Why Endure What is CUrable!

"What can't be cured must be endured,
says the proverb; but Indigestion can be cured,
and therefore it is the meres stupidity to endure
it. Dyspeptics have certainly right to continue
dyspeptics to the end of their daysif they choose
but as it is not supposed that any rational being
probability is that if all sufferers from ind iges-
ton were convinced that an absolute, infallible
remedy for their complaint existed, they would
with one accord resort TO it. We most emphat
cally declare that such II remedy does exist, and
that its name is Hostetters Stomach Bitters.
The record of its success extends over q period
Of more than twenty years, and it is fearlesslN
alleged that during the whole of that time it has
failed to afford permanent relief in any dis
order or arrangement of the stomach that was
not organic, malignant, and incurabe. The
testimonials that 60 to establish this important
fact can be counted by the thousand Stomach
complaints that had been aggravated by a total
disregared of all dietary rules, and intensified
and rendered chrome by medicinal treatment OF

use of this celebrated stomachc and Alternative.
1t should be remembered that weakness of the
digestive organs involves many other ailments.

PARTING.

Good bye, for here our paths di..ae
And take separate way;
Yours through fertile plain, while
Seek more barren way.
Forget you? Deep down in my heart
Some thoughts are strangely set,
Be they with pain or pleasure fraught,
ask not to forget.
Why leave you? l had foolish fancies
OF love both pure and true;
The sun that rose, the stars that set
Were centered all in you.
And you were false; those beautiful eyes
Hid something away from me.
A falt ring doubt in your low replies
could not, would not see
You came to me with kisses warm
On your tender, smiling lips;
And your hands had hardly lost the form
OF clinging finger tips.
Averted face? Oh does a tear shine
Soft in that glorious eye?
Your letters and ring, that once called mine
Here, take them. Goodbye.

CHINESE New YEAR.-The Chinese portion of
Auburn was very loud and foggy during the week
The new emperor of the fowery empire has been
fattening of the little footed princesses prepar-
atory to celebrating his marriage nuptuals and
crownlng her Empress on Tuesday last; and, of
course, all the Chinese in all lands bound
to celebrate the day and week, and the ''men and
brothers" in Auburn did ample justice to the oc-
cason. The Chinese servants made liberal pres
ents of sweetmeats, flowers and frecrackers to
the families they were employed in, and were
generally given as much leisure time during the
week as could be well spared. The Chinese
quarter of town was very lively and noisy dur
ing the week, and it's denizens seemed to enjoy
themselves hugely but innooently so far as out
side barbarians were concerned, unless reports
of stolen chickens follows their New Years hoi-

Rich hrRIKE.-Two men (whose names for
the present we suppress as well as the exact To-
cality where the treasure lies) have struck fab
ulously rich quartz lead, less than three miles
from here, within the last few days We have
seen fifteen ounce lump of the rock and should
say that fully six ounces Of the weight is pure
gold. On Thursday last they had ont some two
or three hundred pounds of this rich rock, which
if equally rich with that we saw, must contain
about 800 dollars to the pound. Don't be
alarmed, reader, for we are not going to say that
their three hundred pounds of rock will pan out
$50 900 until we see it all. The quartz is dirty
white color, and literally seweditogether with
pure, bright, thread gold. They have shaft
down some nine feet, and had traced the ledge
by it rich groupings to this point and there
started the shaft on what seemed to be the rich
est locality. The discoverers desire to make
and secure their locations complete before max
ing all the particulars public.

The boys down to Auburn. They promptly ap-

before Judge Poland on Thursday last, when the

AVERAGE VALUE OF Property IN Placer
CoUNrY.-The Sacramento Union published {,
table showing the average value of the yarious
classes Of personal property in all the counties
OF the State, as shown by the Assessors. Placer
stands in this list as follows: Mules, $50; Amer
icau cows, $39; Spanish cows, $2S; oxen, $50:
calves, $40; American horses, $75; thoroughbred
horses $25S; Spanish horses $685. common sheep,
s2.'5; lambs. 81; hogs, 81; poultry, so cts; but
Ter, per pound, 30 cts; bee hives, $136. 1t
seems from the report that we have no thorough
bred cows, graded cattle, stock cattle, fine sheep
WOOL hay. grain, wood or lumber; this we know is
not true, the statisticsn tho State Board of Equal
lzation to the contrary notwithstanding. But the
oddities of these statistics are most amusing and
We cannot forbear referring to some of them For
instance. mules are worth $40 in Alameda and
500 in Amador, and in Tuolumne, right beside
Amador, they drop down again to only $50 In
Tulare they are Sal, and in Merced they are S92
When we read this we feel like dropping our pen
and going straight to Tuolumne and buying all
the mules there at $50 apiece and driving them
up to Amador in day and then selling them the
same evening for 800 apiece. But on reading
little further we found that oxen in Sacramento
are only $2l per head, and in Placer, right but
ting up against her, they are worth $50, and we
have about concluded to go down to Sacramento
and buy all the oxen there at $21 II head and
drive them over the line and sell them for $50
head, and all we waiting for is to learn how
many oxen they have in Sacramento county, so
as to know just how much we can make by clear
ing $39 on each OK in Sacramento. There are
only three counties in the State that have any
wood, and in one of these it is worth So per cord
and in another 80 cents. The whole table is
most ridiculous and is only interesting as a show
ing the vagarise of Assessors minds and Judgment.
Placer has no lumber or wood and neither has
Nevada, and yet great trains of both pass down the
raj road here every day. We suppose it must all
come from the sage deserts of the State of Neva-
da. Bah No editor can do justice to this sub
ject, and we pass
