The wear and Tear Of City Life.

The wear and Tear Of City Life.
The wear and tear of city life are a Sc
we're tax upon the strongest constitutions:
The hurry and hustle and anXietieS OF
business keep the nervous system III a
state of unnatural tension during busl-
ness hours, and in the end impair the
elasticity and vigOr Of the vital organlza-
ton. The penalty of all undue excite
ment is subsequent exhaustion. Inc Dest
remedy for it, whatever the cause, is HOS
letters Stomach Bitters, the tonic ana
alternative properties of which rapidly
difli,se themselves through tho entire sys-
fem. riyiye and reinforce every dor Iii.I,t
faculty. and restore natural cohuilIoii
of body and mind. Some moral reiorn-
ers insist upon the disuse of all stilnu-
lants. This, to say the least OF IT, Is lii i.
tional. All competent physicians adnic
that pure medicated stimulant Is one Vi
the most useful remedies known. AS u
tonic and invigorant for the aged anu
lanruid, IIostetter's Bitters has no equal;
II i the sheet-anchor of the feeble and
debilitated. In all climates and III every
snecies of disorder which breaks down the
bodily strength, it is an absolute speclhc.
1t is also an invaluable remedy for sea-
sickness. The nausea and retching caused
by the pitching and rolling of vessel at
sea paralyzes the bodily and mental ener-
gies, and those who suffer from it would
do well to resort to the Bitters as means
of secure and permanent relief. No stea-
mer should sail without supply of the
article. Among the botanic ingredients
of which it is composed are some Of the
most powerful blood depurents which
the vegetable kingdom affords. Conse-
quently, it not only tones and invigorates,
but also purifies the system through the
natural sluices which nature has provi-

CIVIL RIGHTS IN VIRGINIA.-On Mon
day last about fifty colored people IN
Winchester, Va, assembled in Court
house square, under the lead OF Kandiil
Martin, somewhat notorious politician
for the purpose celebrating the pas
sage of the civil rights and defining
their position" on that question. Inc
larger and better class of colored people
refused to take part in the proceedings.
Martin commenced the delivery OF az
address, in which he abused those who
lad refused to participate, when he was
interrupted by a party OF colored fan
TASTES, who suddenly brought the meet
ing to a close. Later in the day two
respectable colored BARRIERS, Chas. Wells
and Butcher Mann, enforced the doc
trine of "civil rights" by beating in a
severe manner Martin and an associate.
The Times says the affray was very
lively one, and for time created quite
a commotion on Main street.

THE RESULT Messrs. Oglesby and
Mace, who brought four tons of ore from
the Henrietta mine to the Humboldt
Reduction Works, where it has been
worked, showed us to-day the certifi-
cate of the result, which is "a follows :
First class, z sacks, 1896 "a per ton f.;
second class, 90 sacks, 1922 % per ton;
third class, a small quantity, 1874 rs
per ton. The assayer says there is a
trace of gold in the ore. The third
class was supposed to be worthless, and
q considerable quantity of it has been
thrown over the dump at the mine.
This working test proves the richness
of the new mines at Wagontown be-
yond all further doubt.

A FIRE broke out in the Imperial
mine, near Gold Hill, yesterday, and
created considerable excitement. A
large number of miners were at work
in the lower levels, 1000 feet from the
surface. They were notified that the
mine was on fire, and made their way
to the 1700-foot level, from which a
few of them We're hoisted to the sur
face, and the others escaped through
the Yellow Jacket works. The fire
was held under control by hose attach
ed to hydrants on the premises until
the steamers arrived and extinguished
it. The damage was trifiing, though
the excitemen for while was intense,
and does not exceed $4,000. None of
the miners We're injured.

A FATAL ACCIDENT.
Run Over by the Cars-Leg Mashed.

Run Over by the Cars-Leg Mashed.
Last evening, after the departure of
the west-bound emigrant train, the rail
road boys heard cries for assistance in
the direction of the west switch. Two
or three of them with lanterns started
in that direction, and about one hun
dred yards from the depot found a
young man who had been run over by
the cars which had just left. He was
carried to the depot and made AS COM
Portable as circumstances would permit
uutil the arrival of DIR. Bogman, who
was called to attend him. He said his
name was Frank Z. Weisenberger, and
that his father resided in Virginia City.
He had been to Cornucopia, and not
finding employment at that place was
endeavoring to get back to Virginia
City. He was put off the train at Col
conda yesterday, and arrived here last
evening, and had climbed on one of the
cars with the intention of stealing q
ride west. Shortly after the train
started he changed his mind and con-
Guided to remain here over night, and
in getting off the train near the lower
switch he jumped from between the
cars. and in alighting, his left foot
caught between the guard rail Of the
switch and the main track, and before
he could extricate himself one Of the
cars passed over his right thigh, cut
ting n deep cash in the muscles and
breaking the LIMB. after which he
rolled over, and, as the train was NOV
ing slowly, succeeded in saving himself
from being crushed to death instantly.
After the accident he dragged himself
along the track thirty or forty feet
toward the depot, where his groans and
cries for help were heard by the rail
road boys who went to his assistance.
DIR. Bogman examined his wounds, and
found that he had sustained a COM
pound fracture of the right thigh. with
extensive injuries to the muscles, and
decided to await developments during
the night before amputating the limb.
His left foot, from which the boot had
been torn in his efforts to extricate
himself from between the rails, was
also lacerated. He was taken to the
Central Hotel, where stimulants were
administered to him at intervals during
the night. He complained of pains in
the bowels, from which it IS Inferred
that he was injured internally; but did
not appear to suffer any intense agony,
and at 30 this morning he expired.
One dollar and fifty cents was found in
his pocket. He informed the nurse
who attended him that his father was
a physician, and that he had been sick
in Virginia City for the last year. He
spoke German finently, and conversed
with persons in that language last
evening.
