A VALUABLE IMPROVEMENT. - The
battery at the Humboldt Reduction
Works is u dry crusher. The fact that
che ore is roasted after bang crushed
makes this a necessity. Heretofore
the crushed ore from the battery was
discharged into an apartment from
which it had to be wheeled to the fur
mace. Recently PHI has been laid
from this room to the furnace,
through which the ore is forced by
means of a windmill, obviating the
necessity of handling it. BY means of
this cohtrivance the labor of one man
is saved, and there is much less dust in
the mill.

BRIDGING THE OwYHTE.

Some ten or twelve miles this side
Cornucopia the Winnemucca road
crosses branch of the Owyhee river,
which for two or three months in the
spring, when swollen by the melting
SHOWS, causes some inconvenience 10
teamsters. The bridging of this stres m
is all that is necessary to make the
route from the railroad at this point to
Cornucopia and Bull Run the most
available aud the best at all seasons of
the year, and it devolves upon the
citizens of Winnemucca and Cornuco-
pia aud the station keepers along the
route to see that it is accomplished.
From present indications Cornncopia
is destined 10 be one of the livelisst
mining camps in Eastern Nevada next
spring. Travel and freighting from
the railroad will be lively during tie
early mouths of summer, at the time
wher the river is highest. and to SECURE
the lions share of both over this route
the stream should be bridged at once.
Our Cornacopia correspondent says that
the business men of that camp will
contribute a portion of the expense,
and that the bridge will shorten Il .
ronte at least four miles. We have the
assurance Of reliable man that if the
bridge ID built he will stock the route
Immediately and run a semi weekly, or
daily if necessary. line of stages from
Winnemucca to Cornucopia. A pets
ton. numerously signed by citizens of
Cornucopia, for the extension. of the
Paradise mail route from WiuDemucca,
has been forwarded to Washington.
Let our business men take hold of this
matter at once. and see that the bridge
is butt, for as preachers say at revivals,
NOW Is the accepted time"
