GRAND DUKE ALExIs.-Passing along
Meadow Valley street our friends,
Messrs. Morton & Schweiger, called us
in TO look at some elegant custom-made
work Of their own manufacture that they
were lust finishing. We found some
very fine boots and CATERS of the most
fashionable design aud of the very best
workmanship. We noticed novelty
called the Grand Duke Alexis gaiter. 1t
is marvel of convenience, comfort and
elegance. As the hot weather is closely
approaching, those who wish to pass the
heated term with ease had better procure
pair of these new style CATERS and then
they can walk around in comfort.
RrTuRsEp.-J. N. Williams and lady
returned to Phoebe on Sunday last. Mr..
Williams is at the head of the Highland
Consolidated Mining Company, an I'M
dertaking which, if properly managed,
has all the elements of prosperity, and
will be most profitable to its sharehold-
ers and of benefit to this section. A. B..
Hunt, the well-known lawyer, also re-
turned on the same stage. He has been
enjoying the delightful climate and
pleasant scenery of California, but, like
the rest of them, will come back to the
land of silver, sand and sagebrush.
ASSESSMENT WoRK.-The time for this
work under the law of Congress as it
now stands, is rapidly drawing to close.
As will be seen in our editorial column,
bill has been introduced into Congress
by a Mr.. WILDER, of New York. to extend
the time for another year. Whether this
passes or not will depend greatly on the
expressed opinion of those interested on
this coast, SO those who desire to say or
do anything about it, had better not
stand upon the order Of doing it, but go
right at it.
LIFTING Quite crowd was drawn
together on Meadow Valley street yester-
day to witness the efforts OF stout
young man to raise filled cask holding
about twenty-five gallons to his shoulder
After some prolonged efforts he managed
to get and hold it for short time in the
wished for position. We looked on for
a few minutes, and thought it was a
waste of time and muscle, while the ath-
lete was needlessly running the risk OF
injuring himself.
LAcoUE STREET.-Every one seems to
have a spite against the roadway of this
street, and take pains by dumping piles
Of dirt and rock in the most inconveni.
ent places and forms to render it nigh
impossible. After long seige of mud
and snow this street was getting into
half decent order. and now another fel
low is commencing to dump dirt apt
rock on it near the Court house. THAI
man is evidently afraid that the roaC
will become smooth and pleasant t,
walk on.

Alpin received a very large aud varied
assortment of wines and liquors. Thos
