Twenty-Five men were drafted at the
Belcher mine Saturday. and as many
more will be drafted in a day or two.
Since the sinking of the air shaft, and
consequent cooling of the mine, one
man can do as much work as could
formerly be done by two. This is
such a forcible argument on the value
of air shafts as ventilators, that any
remarks about it would be %superilu-
ous.

The loss by fire, says the Virginia
Chronicle, which OH Saturday evening
destroyed the upper part of Mrs.
Bartlett's residence, corner of Stewart
street and Sutton avenue, was abont
$1,000, on which there was no insur-
ance. The new Babcock fire engine
was first on the ground, aud would
have speedily extinguished the fire
had not some miscreant interiered
with the hose. The gas in the first
tank was used with great effect, and
the flames were almost smOthered
when the other tank was put into OPP
Grafton. The man at the nozzle was
surprised to find that no gas was is
suing from it, the cause of which
could not be explained. The hose also
seemed to fly around in every direc-
ton in the darkness, and at length IN
investigation was made, when it was
discovered that some one had un-
coupled the hose which passed through
the front yard. One of the officers OF
the company had a few minutes pre-
vious screwed it together carefully and
tied a piece of canvas round it to pre-
vent the escape of gas. This had been
cut off and the joint deliberately I'M
screwed. Upon such a rascally piece
of business no comment is necessary,
In the meantime, the fire Vas again
gaining Roadway, and the entire up.
per story OF the house vas in flames,
A stream of water from the hose oil
steamer No. s was mex applied and
the fire put out. The lower part OF
the house and the furniture was badly
injured by water. The flames were
first noticed issuing rom a closet in
the dining-room, but sthere had been
no candles, matches or inflammable
material about it during the day, the
origin of the fire is a mystery.

TrrE INFL.UN.

There is no longer any doubt about
the increase in Eureka's population the
present season. People are pouring in
from all directions, and numberleSs
new faces are to be encountered on the
streets daily. And this is but the van
guard Of the advancing army. Thou
sands will be added to our population
within the next few months, and the
distant when Eureka will be the most
populous town in the State. All we
fear is that people will come in o fast.
So far, Eureka has pursued the even
tenor of its way without much assist
ance from any outside source, and in a
little more than four years has attained
it's present fair proportions. 1t would
be better for the town if a grand rush
could be avoided. A disastrous reac-
ton almost invariably succeeds undue
excitement. There is much to induce
strangers to ON among us. We have
here one of the most extensive and
productive mineral belts in the known
world. Our location, with the prospects
of the early completion of the Eureka
and Palisade Railroad, entities us to
the claim of being the great CONNER
cial, mining and business center of
Eastern Nevada. There are hundreds
OF mining claims in the district that
only await the magic touch of capital,
aided by well directed industry, to
make them yield profitable returns.
Poor men car do but little toward their
development. What we want here is
enterprising men of means. There are
already enough laboring men in this
section to meet every demand of the
companies now in successful operation.
To accommodate more laborers, more
mines must be placed in an advanced
state of development; therefore we
conclude that, unless the present rush
brings with it a fair per cent. of cap
iitalists, it would he better that we have
no further accessions to u population
for another year to come. Butthe tide
Is already setting this way, and it is
hardly to be presumed hat anything
we may say will operate to check it. A
greater population than we have is de-
sirable, but it can be of no possible
benefit to us without more capital to
open up new for profitable
employment.

DER.-Our dispatches to-day report the
arrival at San Antonio, from the Rio
Grande, of Generals Hatch and Davis,
of the United States army, who give a
worse account of the condition of af-
fairs on the border than has yet been
received from any source. The raids
of bands CT marauding Mexicans are
becoming more frequent and bold;
murders are constantly occurring, and
these officers express the opinion that
unless summary measures are taken
that the country between the Rio
Grande and Nueces will soon be in the
hands of the Mexicans. In the mean
time the Secretary of State is doubtless
drawing up that "note of protest. tc
the Mexican Government, which is to
be followed by a 'formal note" Lei
us have peace.
