A CowARpLY TRIcK.-On Thurs

A CowARpLY Trick. On Thurs
day evening last DR.. Zabriskie took
q drink OF w.ter from the public
tumbler at Munckton's saloon, and
hal scarcely w.llowe,l the draught
when he detected something I'M
usual and irritating about the taste
Of it. Examining the glass that he
drank from. several drops OF oil
we're discovered in it which had
chung to the sides. The doctor at
once repaired to the drug store and
took such antidotes as were at
hand and then went to his room,
where he now lies in dangerous
condition. 1t was croton oil that
had by some cowardly person been
placed in the glass with view to
sport, perhaps. but nevertheless
with gross criminality. We can
not suppose that any one could
have prepared the poison for the
doctor, as he has no enemies IN this
community. 1t was done most
likely to catch whoever might
chance to drink it. There are some
men so vulgar and uncultivated,
not to say criminal. "a TO regard
tricks of this kind as legitimately
within the sphere of practical
jokes. The contents OF a swift aud
safe whistler. administered at the
hands Of the injured party. should
be the reward of all such evidences
Of originality. In extreme eases
extreme remedies are not only Jus
tifiable but the only ones that are
effective.

ATTEMPTED SUIcIDE.--A man by
the name of G. p. Shreves on Satur-
day evening swallowed a fatal dose
of laudanum, and would have died
from the effects of it but for the
timely aid of Il physician. His friends
discovered him in n stupor soon after
the drug was taken, and Immediately
sent for DR.. Blackwood, who admin

and moving as long as possible. By
II vigorous walking and rubbing the

that the laudanum WAS drunk with

CoMroRrABLE SEATS. - Miners
Union Hall has been provided with
benches and chairs enough to accom-
modate large audience. The
benches are comfortable, and the
chairs are the most easy to sit in of
any that are manufactured. The hall
is now in excellent condition for dra-
matte performances, balls, exhibit
tons and so on. The wings of the
stage would bc materially improved
by coat of paint and some embel-
fishing to complete the original de-
sign. This done, and a drop cur
tain provided, the stage would pre-
sent quite tidy appearance. These
things. together with carpet, etc,
will of course be forthcoming. The
Miners Union cannot do all things

HONE AaArN.-Mr. Jos. Munckton
has returned from the Centennial,
Cincinnati, Washington, st. Louis,
Ohio and all around among the Mid.
die States. We say that he returned
from all these places because We do
not know which one Of them he
visited last, and he was at all of them
during his stay. Mr.. Muncktan
comes home very much improved in
appearance. He looks as though
where he had been they killed the
yellow legged chickens for him and
we're altogether very good to him.
His remarks upon the Centennial
correspond with those which other
gentlemen have made who have been
there-he says it is simply beyond
any ordinary mans power of descrip.
ton. Mr.. Munckton says that dur
ing his travels through the principal
cities be found liquid refreshments
at respectable places just a shade
desrer than they are out here. In
Washington. for instance, he found
plain jbrandy going at forty cents a
glass, and plain whisky at thirty.
Five cents extra is charged for max
ing . teddy. Drinks range from ten
cents up to forty cents, and when a
fellow treats a party IF friends he
has to figure up the bill with pencil
or leave it tn the barkeeper. 1t is
needless to say that Joe always left
it To the mathematical aptitude of
the latter to determine the expense.
We mention these facts for the bene-
I'll %! those who MY contemplate u

Muncktnu hss gathered good deal
of information during his absence,
and wc select the foregoing from
much of interest that he has told us
because we regard j, of Importance

THE OLYMPIC MrNsrRELs. - The
Olympic Minstrel Company, COM
posed OF some excellent talent, APP
peared at Miners Union Hall on
Saturday evening. But small audi
cnce was in attendance. The bills
announced dance at the close of the
performance, which rs general
thing is loadstone sufficient to attract
in community like this proftably
large gathering. Our people seem
not only to want taste for min
strelsy and variety presentations, but
also to lack in ardent enthusiasm for
the dance. The hall is now as pleas
ant al one tor the latter purpose as
there is in this portion OF the State,
and when with dancing is coupled
the. attraction of fine musical per-
formances, humorous, character act
ing and copious flow of general
fun, it is a wonder that people do not
seize the occasion and enjoy
themselves - all for dollar -
uadedollar. Frank Leonard
the Irish comedian, would
elicit applause in presence of any
audience. Mr.. Dudley's cornet play
ing has been frequently spoken of
by the press as most excellent and
charming, is one of the finest manipu-
lators of that delightful instrument
we have ever heard. The troupe as
whole are deserving of good pat
ronage wherever they go.

CIVIL ENG1NEER.-We CHANGED in
at the Office of James Judge, the sur
veyor and civil engineer, yesterday
afternoon, and found that gentleman
passing away the Sabbath amid a
multitude of maps, charts. scientific
drawings, etc. Let it not be unIer-
stood that he was engaged upon any
of ,ese professional performances,
for he was not so. A map of Silver
City. several feet square, spread upon
the drawing board and unfinished
caught our reportorial eye. 1t re-
fleets credit upon the skill OF Mr..
Judge, being executed with evident
accuracy aud finished with excellent
taste. Persons in need of an engi-
neer and surveyor will find this gen
tleman equal 10 a correct perform
ance of any work in that line they
may have TO perform.

all the debts now hanging over it will

the production OF Mr.. Stewart on
the same occasion:
SHOCKING MARTIAL CONDUCT.
The nerves of people who passed
along the road between this and
Gold Hill yesterday afternoon
must have received sudden
aud quite unwholesome shock
by the appearance at the door
Of house in the vicinity of
the Pappoose Mill of n woman whose
person from the diaphragm upward
was almest wholly exposed to view.
In point of absolute fact, the whole
thorax. ~ Il werf. Was exposed to the
direct action of the atmosphere.
Qaite apart from any consideration
~ public deeeney, there would seem
Ia tie physiological reasons why q
delicate female should not tnus
expose her pores to u possibly ma
lign atmosphere, A feeling of deli
caey prevents us fr IN recounting all
the ills that might flow from such an
indiscretinn. 1t must be sufficient to
gay that woman thus guilty should
be forced to read alike a copy of"Lord
Chesterfield ON Etiquette" and "Dr.
Gum ON Female Diseases"
We skip, however, further consld-
eratlons Of this sort to reach at oace
the Cause Of so strange piece of be-
havior. We find that the woman has
imbibed mere stimulants than the
nervous system requires, and has
brought upon herself that condition
OF semi-unoonsciousne which we in
medicine call nsrcosis, M slight
paralysis of the csSsbellum. The

THE IMPRovIDENT PIUTE.

The mercury is half way between
freezing and zero; the stiff north
wind is piercing cold, the snow
flakes fall thick and fast, and the
dreary sagebrush plain has fearfully
desolats appearance. Out into this
shelterless waste trudges the Piute
with his squaw and papooses at the
close of day. He retires from the habi-
tations of white men at that hour, for
night ends his prospects of getting
"cold grub +" from the pale faces for
odd little jobs, which the LATEST of his
tribe are ready to perform, when
hungry, You follow him through the
binding storm to his wickiup. This
shelter, which he calls his home, is in
many instances winrow of sagebrush
or, at the best, few poles covered
with THU canvass and old gunny sacks
In the center his squaw, who is pro-
vident enough to have few matches,
begged from tho whites, builds small
sagebrush fire. The family huddle
together in the shelter of the winrow,
on the windward side, with their feet
encased in moccasins soaking wet, to-
wards the fire. In this comfortless,
dreary abode the noble rec man passes
night after night, in climate where
the mercury not infrequently sinks to
zero, ard which for weeks is rarely
above twenty at night, No thought of
making his home more comfortable
enters his mind. His fathers lived III
that manner for ages, and he does not
believe in progres sion. He is, to all
appearances, contented with his lot
one remove above the brute. Should
civilization step in aud attempt to
make lin otherwise?
