FOOT RACING.

Pioehs is bound to keep up some ex-
element. Since the failure Temporary

and the consequent emigration of a
large portion OF her floating population,
her usual amusements, rs lights, rob
berries, murders, dead mon for break

now on the peaceful basis Of muscular
rivalry. and anxious to ''show her agil-
ity." In proof Of which witness the
following which we clip from the Record
Of August 9th:
Racing is now the rage. Phoebe

but among her citizens, has some folks

an example. we are authorized 10 an

ruE<AssYRIAN CANDIDATr.

The Carson Tribune Of Saturday, pays
its respects to Mr.. Satro in a scpthing
editorial. which, did space permit, should
be reproduced in our columns. Its ed
itor evidently appreciates the status OF
the lobbying tunnel bore. Following is
a portion of the article referred to:
We have always supposed that Mr..
Sutro's candidacy for the United States
Senate was 4 mere burlesque, but yes
tsrday we ascertsined that he (Sutro) is
a bona ide candidate for Senatorial hon
ors. OF all the ~impudence we ever
heard OF this il the very sublimity Of
cheek. and how sensible men dare
stand before the people Of free America
and advocate the claims OF such a man,
we are at q loss 10 conceive. We met
yesterday, an honorable gentleman who
1. connected with the management OF
the Virginia Independent, and in a ~jocular
way inquired IL he was really in earnest
in advocating the claims OF Mr.. Sutro.
To our establishment and chagrin he an
swsred in the Affirmative. And this
Sutro is the mar who dares to come be-
fore American people and talk Of oppo-
sition to monopolies! We say, without
any fear Of successful contradiction, that
admitting Mr.. Sharon TO be the mon
opolist and extortionist his enemies
claim him to be-admitting the Bank
Ring" to be the cause OF all the misery
that the working class OF Storey county
is subject to-this man Sutro with his
tunnel scheme is ten thousand times q
worse monopolist than ever the United
States produced.

Belmont Items.
tFrom the Courier, Aug. 81


From NJ. San Pedro, Superintendent
Of the Barcelona Mining Company, the
claims Of which are located in the Span
ish Belt range. we learn the following:
In Barcelona No. l an incline shaft is
down a depth Of IS feet, work ON which
is progressing night and day. Tho
character Of the ore resembles that now
extracted from the lower levels OF the
jefferson mines. black sulphuret in
white quartz. 1t also steadily improves
in richness as depth is made. An assay
was made by Geo. Nicholl. a day or two
since, which gave 1854 SO per ton. For
the last 80 or 40 feet run in the shaft
the hanging wall has been lost sight OF,
the vein having increased beyond the
width Of a G-foot shaft. At u depth OF
So feet a cross-cut will be run when the
width Of ledge will be asccrtained. For
somo timo past the ledge has been hard,
but it is now much softer and more rap
id progress is being made. Altogether,
tho prospects arc fiattering for the own
ers Of the mine.

II is reported that heavy frosts have
prevailed in Washoe Valley every might

melons, pumpkins, tomatoes and like
vegetables outright. Tho potatoe croT

be. The corn has not been injured
much. The loss will be keenly felt by
the ranchsrs.
There are over n hundred China
men at work in the woods about Verdi

in cutting wood. They generally buy
stumpage and cut for themselves. They

A TRIVIAL MISTAKE.

As an illustration Of the trivial mis-
takes which high-minded and honorable
men will occasionally make, the Chicago
Posi- and Nail gives particulars Of an in
cident which recently happened in Kan
sas, and to which the people Of that
State make casual allusion. A man liv-
ing in the neighborhood OF Parsons vas
suspected OF horss-stsaling, tho most
fragrant offense known to a Kansas
community. Filled with righteous in
dignation at this afIront to the sacred
Of justice, a select company Of cit
liens sought his residence, called out
the supposed thief. and. in the course
OF conversation. gently lifted him up
toward the limb Of a convenient tree, by
means Of rope, gave him an ample
supply Of ammunition by the judieious
distribution OF two dozen bullets in diff
ferent parts OF his clothing, and retired
10 their yirtuous couehes. This would
not have been worthy Of mention but
for a discovery which was accidentally
made the next day. The jury which
completed this job so elegantly are
slightly vezed at the thought that their
nights labor was in vain, for the horse
thief is still alive. But the man who
lived next door to him will never DO hon.
est or steal horses again.

A Wonderful Oil Well.

The Titusville (Pa.) Herald thus de-
scribos a wonderful oil well that has just
been opened:
The road leading to the Parker well
from Petrolia is in moderately good con.
dition. and soon after leaving Central
Point the traveller observes the words
mo smoking permitted here in con-
spicuous places. After about two and q
half miles ride the top OF q hill is
reached, where q loud, roaring noise IL
distinctly heard. and eighty rods further
on brings us in sight OF the we'll. A
dense fog or mist envelopes the derrick,
engine-house and tanks, while fully n
thousand persons are there gazing on
tho wonder OF Armstrong county. The
derrick has conspicuously placed under
ii, in large letters Boss Well and
'Creswell City, There arc two $50
barrel tanks full OF oil; also two, 1900
barrel tanks. one OF which is full. Three
dams, one below tho other, catch the
drippings; and the rivulet beyond. we
are told, for ten miles Of q circuitous
route TO the Allegheny river. is covered
with oil. There are two 2-inch pipes
connected with the well. one Of which is
shut completely of, and out OF the other
| flows q steady stream OF oil with i'm
menss force. There is no ~perceptibls
intermission in the flow, and as 1t gush-
es into one Of the 1900 barrel tanks the
foam and spray envelop the whole sur
rounding atmosphere in q dense mist.
"a trustworthy gsuger informed us
that he had gagged the well three times
since the stream was turned into the
1000 barrel tank, and he found 1t doing
l,750 barrels, and he estimSted the leak
age to be at least fifty barrels a day. He
further stated that, in his opinion, the
well started of out OF the 2-inch pipes
at the rate OF $500 barrels perday. Hc
also claimed that, although this was al
most incredible, he believed that II the
full stream was turned on now II would
II would do at least 1000 barrels. The
well is claimed to be the largest ever
struck in the lower region. A farmer
walked up TO us and offered TO sell his
adjoining farm OF 100 acres for $780,
900, which ten days ago. for farming
purposes, would not have brought 81
900. The surveyors are at work laying
out Creswell City.
The Parker well stands * miles
due east OF the most eastern we'll on the
fourth sand development, and about g.
miles east Of Petrolia. The number Of
wells drilling on the belt east Of the
most easterly well on the McGarvey
farm arc six-namely: two ON the Snow
farm, one ON the Steel farm, the Gush-
ford well, 1000 feet deep; the Crawford
we'll, 800 feet deep, and the Prentice
we'll, l,i50 feet deep. The latter is half
n mile due west OF the Parker we'll"

How a Kldnapper was Detected.

About forty years ago, q kidnapping
case occurred in England which was
very like the present Philadelphia affair.
A child was abducted and its father no.
tilted that il could be ransomed for Co.
900. The afflicted parent returned word
that he did not possess e5,000, and the
robbers answered him by saying that he
had rich friends. and must raise the
money demanded. OF the child would be
disigured for life. So great was the ex-
element that q fund was started 10 aid
the man. One gentleman. however. en-
tertained n suspicion that II wa not all
right. II is a woll known fact that the
Bank OF England never reissues its
notes. The gentleman, going To the
bank, procured some new notes, and de-
sired the officials to take their number
and TO notify him when tho notes were
returned, and, IL possible, to ascertain
from whom they were received. A short
time after these notes had been given to
the father OF the child. tho gentleman
had notice from the bank that the notes
had come in. He found that the notes
had been sent in by a bank in the North
Of England, and he Immediately started
for that locality. There he learned that
the money was deposited by a person
who had opened an account. The gen.
tleman and the bank clerk returned to
London, and word was sent to the father
that a clue to the ~kidnappers had been
found, and requesting him to meet them
at a specified place. Immediately upon
his coming into the room the clerk ex-
claimed, why, that is the man who
opened the account" The man wal
arrested and tried. During the trial II
t~ranspired that he had concealed his own
child for the purpose Of raising money.
A sentence to penal servitude was his
reward.

had a vulgar parvenu down on a visit,
an odious little snob, with the purse Of
n Crusus and the manner Of a billiard
marker. and he took him over his choice
selections OF pictures, pointing out the
special beauties and dwelling with gusto
on the number OF g%uineas they had cost
him, and the little parvenu nodded and
grinned, and said "Ah" and Eyes"
now and then, MS II he understood ii all.
AT last they came TO the sculpture gal
lery. Stopping opposite n fine copy Of
the Greek Slave, Dovetail said, There,
that's an old friend. OF course You
know that" Our little snob put up his
cys-glass, looked puzzled for a moment
or two, as he gazed with the critical eye
Of n connoisseur at the undraped figure;
then II flood Of light suddenly burst up
on him, and with n curious smile ho
turned TO Dovetail and said, "Oh, oh,
