when the Record gave forth the news
Of tho nomination by the Democratic
National Convention at st. Louis of
Samuel J. Tilden for President Of the
United States, that they forthwith COM
menced to make preparations for regu-
lar jubilee by building bonfires and the
firing of anvils. which took place at the
corner of Main and Meadow Valley
Streets. The anvil-fring, music and
bon-fres. all at the Same time, created
considerable excitement, enthusiasm and
political discussion pro and con, as to
the relative merits of both OF the respec-
tive candidates. We rather expect that
Phoebe was about the irst town in the
field in Nevada, in firing salutes in honor
Of the nomination Of the Dem cratic
candidate for President.
PREPAnAr1oNs.-Very little business is
now stirring in Phoebe, except that
brought about by the various prepara-
tions being made for the celebration of
the Fourth Of July. These preparations
are progressing in lively style, both in
the hands of ladies and gentlemen. We
observed q whole flock of ladies around
the house of Phoebe Hose Company yes
terday, taking q view of the wooden
canopy to be placed on the hose cart.
They were examiningi it with view to
see the best style in which to decorate it.
SHoEMAKEB's WAX MINr.-The Eureka
Sentinel mentioned short time since
the discovery OF soap mine near that
place, and the uses to which that article
could be placed. There has not been
a soap mine discovered near Phoebe, but
some Of our Utah brethren have discov-
cred q shoemaker's wax mine not great
distance from Phoebe, Q specimen10f
which was shown US yesterday by G. r.
Alexander. Every one knows that the
use OF that kind OF wax is for the good of
the "sole." 80 it is likely to be benefi-
cial discovery.
WATER PIPEs.-A project is now be-
ing agitased to lay water pipes ON Nc
Cannon street and to have a couple Of
fire plugs on that street. The residents
OF that street claim that il would not
only be beneficial to them but also to the
business men of Main street, as the
water on that street would help to pro-
tect the rear of the Main street buildings,
In which portion OF building q fire is
generally apt to break out.
By the following extract from the vir-
ginia Enterprise of the 23d it will be
seen that H. Horst. formerly OF this
place. has gone into business at Virginia
City: b. Horst has leased the Milwaukee
Beer Depot. No. 8 South @ street. of j.
d. Plate, and will give q grand opening
tonight. Mr.. Horst is an old Comstock
q and knows how to run place OF the
kind. He invites all his friends and the
public generally to call and help him
launch his new business,
