ing the limits within which d%isreputa-
BILE houses must be confined, in Vir-
ginia City, went into effect on last Sat
urday, May 1st, and as a result IA gem
eral change of location took place
among those of the demi-monde whose
domiciles were within the boundaries.
Such houses are to be confined north
of a line running through Union street,
and east of a line running north and
south through the blocks of buildings
between e. and ID streets. One avora-
BILE effect of the new law is already
seen i'm the ~vacating Of houses Oppo-

hither and thither through the valley
between Winnemucca and Rose Greek,
and late in the evening brought up at

| has been said about it. It appears,
however, that a few of the discoveries
have been at work i'm the district. as
two tons of ore from there arrived al
Winnemucca Tor the purl ose of testing
it at Humboldt Reduction Works. The
ore is from the Centennial mine, owIel
by Captain McCasey and others, and l.

iments assaying over 500 per tOn.
