IrEN AND SCIsSORS.

Says the Carson Tribune: The fl.
neral of Mrs. MighelS, mother of Mr..
Fl. K. Mighels, took place from his
residence to-day. and was largely at
tended. The Rev. s. p. Kelly ofIicia-
ted. n the beautiful services of the
Episcopal Church were never more
feelingly or better read. We condole
with MIR. Mighels OF bis severe loss,
and at the same time rejoice with
him that his dear mother was enabled
10 pass her last days under his roof
and receive all the loving attentions
he and his estimable family could
lavish on her. Mrs. Migbels bad
lived over the allotted time Of human
life, and went down to her grave
happy in the assurance OF a blissful
Immortality.
The Rereile, speaking of the Jeffer-
son mine, says: A Superintendent's
letter. of date December Ii. to the San

ing the Same character OF ore as last
reported. The ore vein in the Wine is
from 9 inches to two feet thick, end
has been running so for the last Is feet.
What ore is taken from the Wine is of
very high grade.
We learn from the Gold Hill Nems
that the charge Of mayhem will not be
pressed against Alexander Nixon, the
man who made it so lively for the Vir-
ginia police on Sunday night and who
bit one of officer Marks'.fugers u the
bone. As the policeman's hand is not
permanently injured, the offense does
not quite reach mayhem. A good
club is po%licenan's best protection
against fellows Of Nixon kind.
The Reno Journal SAYS: The Vir-
ginia and Trucl;ee Railroad has or
dered a reduction OF employees wages,

1t includes all but tram men. The re-
duction is so cents from each mans
daily wages. Thus the carpenters in
tho shops at Carson are cut down
from 81 30 10 81, mechanics from 81 TO
80 80, and so on down the scale.
The E!ko Independent says: Senator
Sharon passed east last evening in his
Virginia and Truckee palace car IN his
way to Washington. Our information
respecting the matter Vas received
from Charles McWilliams, who boldly
entered the hotel on wheels and had a
long and interesting interview with
the gentleman In relation u State mat
ters; at least that's what Mac says.
