FROM rHEsBLAcK HILLs.-Jack Gill

mer, of the firm of Gilmer & Sails
bury, arrived in town on Sunday
nights train, from the Black Hills
country. Since he left here he has es-
tablished a stage-line from Cheyenne
to Custar City. Jack says he went up
as far as Rawhide Springs, thirty
miles above Laramie, where he found
the moccasin tracks so thick that he
concluded he could do better in the
lower country, so he took. the back
track. He heard many conflicting
stories concerning the gold mines, but
as four dollars and a half was the total
amount of dust which he saw during
his travels in that section, he is in
clined to the opinion hat the country
isn't a second California. He says,
however, that it is a fine farming and
grazing country, and is impressed with
the belief that it will be speedily set
tied ur whether there is any mineral
there or not.
THE WHITE HoUsE.-This is the
name given by the Cohn Bros. to their
new and magnificent establishment.
into which they have just moved, on
the west side of Main street, just above

success, as they always keep the best
quality Of goods, which they sell at the
most reasonable prices. Jake Cohn

On THE RAMPAGE. The woman
known as "Bull-dog Kate" whose
police experience in Eureka is consid.
erably extensive. last night walked
into a saloon on Buel street and as
saulted a man with a bottle. The
assaulted party retaliated with a blow,
when Catherine went off. procured a
pistol and returned, vowing vengeance.
She was in the act OF cooking her little
instrument when officer Mckee came
up behind her, disarmed and walked
her off to the calaboose.
WHY II OMIssIoN?-We notice
among the postal routes recently e~-
tabiished that n has been designated
batween Belmont and ReveiIle via
Tybo, but nothing is said concerning
the Eureka and Belmont route, which
some time ago was considered as good
as established. Probably nowhere in the
Stale are postal facilities more badly
needed than between this place and
tho county seat of Nye. and we can-
not understand the omission. VIII our
Congressional delegation explain?
