ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES

MINING ACCIDENTS sudden deati
of Mr.. Peterson, caused by the injurie.
received in pursuing his business as {
miner. should arouse to renewed vigil
ance those who control mining opera
lions. 1t is sad, fearful thing to con
slider that the slightest carelessness oil
lack of attention may cause the death of a
fellow creature, We believe that as rule
our mines are conducted by humane and
and thoughtful men; but freedom from
accident for any heightened period begets
carelessness, not only on the part OF the
officers, but in the men themselves.
This is to be deprecated and prevented
if possibles. No precaution should be
neglected and imperative rules be laid
down that none should be permitted to
dsobey. The business of underground,
in fact, mining at all. is always danger
Gus. Powder has to be used, and what
from its use the liability of sudden
causes, and the danger attending passing
up or down shafts or inclines, at the
very best, there is always much risk
under any circumstances, and it is the
bounden duty of all concerned, to keep
that risk at its minimum.
LEAvING.-We regret to learn that o.
r. Ford, who for some time has been
actively engaged as engineer on the Bull
lionville Railroad, is about to leave
Phoebe. Mr.. Ford came here with Mr..
Nesbitt, the Superintendent, and con-
trlbuted largely by his mechanical skill
in getting the road into working order.
Added to his skill as q mechanic and
his business habits, Mr. Ford commend.
ed himself to all by his pleasant and
obliging manners. He goes to San Fran
cisco to enter into business, and carries
with him the good wishes of host of
friends, as well as our own. We are
sorry to lose SO good citizen, but trust
he will be benefited by the change, and
accomplish all his most sanguine wishes
may desire.
A LIVELY DEBATE was Yesterday car.
ried on between two women of whose
fairness there might be a doubt, but of
their frailty not the least. Words flew
thick and fast, until some more convincing
arguments were used in the shane of
Droomsticks and wash bowls, and then
the iur began to fly, and chignons and
other feminine head gear strewed the
ground. The war getting too warm, one
OF the combatants executed q mastery
!strategetic movement, and changed her
base, leaving her opponent mistress of
the field and some broken furniture.
Inc damage was, however trifling, and
all parties retired for repairs.
COOP FRIDAY.-To-day is one of the
most solemn anniversaries OF the church.
being celebrated in commemoration of
the death of our Saviour. In the Cath |
ole Church the services OF the day are
very peculiar and grave. indicative of
the grief, suffering and death of our
Lord. In the Episcopal Church special
services are held. In Europe it is gen.
orally kept as close holy day. All bus
mess is suspended, banks and mercan-
tile establishments are closed. In Eng.
land they have curious practice OF |
making and eating small cake, marked
with cross, which are called hot cross
buns.
FULL OF FArTH.--Great numbers of
our citizens are complaining of hard
tines but while emitting a growl,
