AT LAsT.-After six weeks of continu-
GUS freezing weather, the atmosphere soft
ened and on Wednesday we had regu-
lar old fashioned snow storm. On Thurs
day morning the Basin was covered with
The Beautiful" to the depth of Is inch
es. The storm turned to rain and the
miners were happy in the thought that
water would be plenty within few hours.
But this proved only delusion, as the
wind switched round to the North and
Thursday night proved to be the coolest
of the season, completely drying up all
water. The thermometer stood at 100
above zero on Friday morning. Altho'
there is no water yet, miners have the
satisfaction of knowing that there is some
snow on the mountains at last. On the
morning of January 18th, old Baly was
perfectly bare, something heretofore un-
known at that time in the year. A little
warmth is all that is now required to start
the water and make everybody happy.
An average mining season, however, is
now only within the range of possibilities.
The snow OF the past week was l6 inches
making total for the season of 2O1
the rain measured rs irches, making a
total thus far Of 1897 inches.

EFFICACY OF PRAYER.-On Monday
last we received an envelope directed to
US from junction City. Opening it, we
found a piece OF poetry published in the
JOURNAL some years ago, entitled "a
Prayer for Trinity" in which the author,
knowing the necessities OF the miners,
appealed to the fountains of heaven to
open and send rain to work the mines.
on the back was written in pencil =
Bro. Jones, please lead in prayer"
We obeyed the injunction-withw what eff
iect let the storm of Wednesday answer.
NOW for the sequel A day or two after
sending us this request, our friend, evil
IDENTIFY thinking that " the prayers of the
wicked availeth nothing" or else that we
had put off praying to more promising
Time, hitched up his team and drove to a
brother rancher's about dozen miles off
TO get some seed potatoes. While there
the storm came and when he started
homeward with his wagon, he found the
snow SO deep that he had to unhitch, and
leaving the wagon standing in the road, +,
made his way home as best he could. If
there is any other chap wants us to ''lead
In prayer" we are perfectly willing to do
1t, but after the experience of our juno
ton City friend, we advise them to have
little more faith in us than he had and
not allow themselves to be caught in the
storm we bring.

Reliable Testimony.

1t cannot be reasonably supposed that
when person testies to the efficacy of a
remedy whose benefits he has experienced, ,
without solicitation, that he does so for
the purpose of misleading the public, or
from any other motive than that of graft
tude. 1t is still more unreasonable to
suppose that eminent physicians would
corroborate the evidence thus given unless
they were persuaded of its ruth. The
proprietors of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
are constantly in the receipt of voluntary
testimonials acknowledging the curative
and preventive potency of this benetcent
tonic and corrective, emanating not only
from those who have felt its influence,
but also from well known members OF
the medical profession, both here and
abroad, who have witnessed its effects,
and prescribed it in their private practice.
In the face of such evidence as this, to
which the widest publicity has repeatedly
been given, it would be absurd to question
the medicinal virtues Of the Bitters.-
Skepticlsm upon this point was long ago
dlsarmed, and they are to-day as much
respected and far more widely known
than many of the oflicna remedies which
figure conspicuously in the pharmacopeia.
They are universally recognized to be the
supreme remedy for intermittent and re-
mittent fevers, dyspepsia, liver complaint,
general debility, disorders of the bowels
and nervousness, as well as means of
terrifying the system against maarious
influences and those which operate inju-
riously upon the sensitive organs. Wheth-
er used as II remedy for actual disease, as
a means of building up the broken down
physique, or of Fastening convalescence,
they are never resorted to in vain, and
they often restore complete health when
prescribed remedies cannot even initiate
its recovery. 1jan.

us and cut of two of the old residents
On Sunday last, JAMES O'CoNNoR. a ma
tive OF Ireland, aged 63 years, passed
away, and the following day his remains
were inferred in the Catholic burying-
ground. His only living relative as far
as we know, is daughter, Mrs. Chas.
Sloan, formerly of this place, but of late
residing in Humboldt county. On FRI
day morning RiTcHIE NJ. MEIssEN-
HEIMER, a native of Illinois, aged 4S yrs.
breathed his last. An old resident of the
county, his kind and genial disposition
won him many friends who regret sin
cerely his demise. The funeral will take
place on Sunday next, at p. m. under
the auspices of Trinity Lodge, No. 81, F.
u A. NJ, of which Lodge he was an hon
ored member. He has brother and sis
ter living in jackson county, Illinois.

TOWN AND COUNTY.

w. y. & III. NJ. Co.-On Tuesday last,
in company with Superintendent Geo. H.
Atkins, we visited the claims of the Wea-
verville Ditch and Hydraulic Mining
Company. The Ward Mine, on Oregon
Gulch Mountain, has been refitted to
some extent and everything connected
with its prospective working is in the
best possible shape. With fair supply
of water, there can be no doubt but that
this mine alone will yield the Company
large revenue. From this claim we
Travelled along the ditch and were sur
prised to find that it had withstood the
early rains so well their effect upon it
being no more than could have been
looked for in an old ditch. No slides and
only few caves have occurred on the
line, and these were mostly of loose top
stuff, easily run cat when the water is
turned In, and will prove beneficial in
h!ling up the low places and tightening
the ditch. After hearty dinner with
Jimmy Lands who has charge of the
ditch, we wended our way down the new
trail to Sydney Hill. Here an entirely
new opening has been made. An open
cut s it on top. Oft bottom, 30 feet deep
and over 400 feet in length has been run
from the gulch TO the formerly beautiful
orchard Of DR.. Ware, which the Compa-
ny will sluice off. A new reservoir has
haan hnilt nd I - = al
ppe is used in conveying the water to the
mine. Judging from work heretofore
done in the vicinity, the Ware claim will
yield handsomely under the new method
of mining.
One thing we noticed was entirely new
to us, and probably is to most old Trinity
miners, that is II flume with flaring sid
All The fumes built by Capt. Atkins are
of this pattern, and he claims that any
miner who gives one of them fair tlial
will never build any other kind. The
advantages claimed are that blocks can
be taken out and replaced much quicker,
1t is less liable to clog, the water has mole
current on the bottom, and in case of a
Jam the sides of this kind of hume are
less liable to come in on top than in one
with straight sides.
In the management of the Company's
affairs Capt. Atkins has the advantage of
large practical experience in hydraulic
mining, and has concentrated all his ener-
gi1s to the work in hand. Everything is
now in excellent working order, and when
water comes active operations will com
mence. The Company further intends to
begin work on the Rush Creek Ditch in
the Spring and have that water in the
Basin sometime in June.

ALL persons who aspire to beauty or personal
appearance should not neglect that natural ac-
cessory, the hair. By many it has been neg
iected until the hair has become thin, gray or
entirely ial len OIL. Messe Hall 4 Co., Nash
ua, N: H., have produced an elfcctual remedy
called Siclllal Hair henewer, which cures all
diseases OF the scalp. This wonderful prepa-
ration acts upon the glands which support and
nourlsh the halr, restores gray hair to its orig
mai color, makes the scalp VIII to and cl can
removes and prevents the formation of dand-
run ana all cutaneous eruptions and, by its
tonic and nutritiye qualities, restores the scalp

To CINNABAR AND RETURN.-Sheriff
Philbrook, Clerk Trotter, Judge Lovejoy
and Expert Smiley made trip to CHINA
bar and returned this week. They report
everything favorable in that section and
prospects constantly improving. Lytle
Il Hawket have been offered and refused
500, 900 for their interests in that District.
They have three large retorts in position
at the foot of the mountain, with which
they expect to produce 1000 pounds Of
quicksilver daily, which will net 81 per
pound. DR.. E. II. Pardee, Of Oakland,
has offered j. f. Dolliffe $4,000 for his
mine, and negotiations are now pending.
The Trinity Company are in S5 feet with
their tunnel and have favorable indca-
tions. Eleven men are Wintering at

NEVADA SENAToR.-Sharon was elect

last, He will be successor of VIM. NJ.
Stewart, whose term expires on the 4th
of March next. His opponents raised
the point that he is not an inhabitan. of
the State, as required by the Federal
Constitution, and therefore not qualified
to act as Senator. The Senate is the sole
judge of the qualifications of its mem
bers.

the low rates at which it is sold nsures
