reminded us very strongly of the divide
between Gold Hill and Virginia, and the
old Ophir grade. The last named prome-
made. at the point where it overlooks
American Fiat, we regard as being the
peculiar stamping ground OF old Boreas,
for YOU can get more wind in less time
and smaller compass than in any other
place on earth. However, for Phoebe
we did well yesterday; shauties and avn
ines, and signs and hats, flew in every
direction. If one put his head out Of
doors, he had, like the young man with
bis cravat, to give his whole mind and
time to his hat, either to keep it on or
run after it when it was off. We say
an old gentleman, whose occiput
was sleek and shining as near
" as bare as billiard bali,
make some savage tugs at his hat until
he pulled it down over his eyes, and
made him look as fierce and forbidding
as De Young when he went after Nap,

caution. Just as fellow was making a
frantic grab at his hat, bang would come
an old can against his shins, and as he

piece and re6t generally. Altogether it
was gay time. About o'clock the
wooden awning in front of Donohue &
Quillens store came down with a crash,
some portion of it striking an express
wagon that was standing near by. The
horse, not relishing the aspect of affairs,
started of, but only went few yards be-
fore it was stopped On McCannon
street we saw small shanty gracefully
reposlng on its side, and was still as the
wind permitted. About o'clock the
gale lulled considerably, but later began
to put in its best llcks. The damage
was not much, but it was very dis
agreeable time.
BALL AT ROUND vALLEY.-As it is an
icipated that goodly number of the
citizens of Phoebe will attend the ball at
Round Valley, on the Goth inst, spe-
cal train will run from Phoebe, leaving
at g p. M, and returning in the morn
ing. As we remarked the other day, the
Mr.. Delmue, is making great
for the reception and en-
tertainment Of his guests, and we expect
that his party will in every respect be
success.
INDooRs.-Most of the folks stayed in
doors yesterday. The high wind and the
dust caused outdoor amusements to be
sold short and at discount. What with
Mere being SO few people on the streets,
and the doors OF the stores and saloons
being mostly closed to keep the dust out,
the streets wore dull look all day.
YESTERDAY was the day fixed for hear
ing the order to show cause why an in
junction should not issue in the case of
the Magnet Mining Company vs.. Page &
Panaca Mining Company, but in conse-
quence of the absence Of the District
Judge, no proceedings were had.
For VIRGINIA. Yesterday Ed. French
left for his old stamping ground, vir-
ginia City, Of which place he is an old
timer A party of Mr.. French's friends
escorted him in fine style to the Eight
Mile Hose, where he took the stage.
STRUCK Tive see by the Pueblo
(Col) Chief.ain that Mr.. O'Bannon, a
former resident of Piuche, has struck a
fine ledge in district called Rosita. A
number of assays were made that showed
the ore to be Of very high grade.
THIS morning V. w. Brooks, a typo
who has for some time worked in this
once, leaves for California. We recon-
memo him to our brethren of the craft as
reliable man and a good workman.
