IeSnmOn Mill.

The machinery at the Lennon mill
was in full operation yesterday, al
though, as yet, no dust has been run
through the pans. 1t was the inten-
ton to have commenced in the early
part of the week, but it was found on
trial, hat the elevator leading from
the bin to the roasting furnace was out
of order, and had to be replaced by a
new one before anything could be
done. One battery was engaged yes
terday crushing a lot of sulphuret ore
for use in the mill. The pans, agita-
tors and concentrators were running
in good shape, and it is the intention
to start the hue dust through today.
Quite a lot of that article has been
hauled to the hillside at the rear of
the mill, a iour-horse team being con-
stantly employed delivering it.

A message was received yesterday
by DR.. Bishop, announcing the sud
den illness of Mrs. Thos. Moore, of
Palisade, who had been attacked with
a congestive chill, and asking that
IA prescription be sem for her relief.
The Doctor put himself in communi-
cation with tie operator at that point,
and kept that individual busy for
awhile answering questions as to
symptoms, etc. On the return
of The proper information the
prescription was sent, and we are
pleased to learn that its application
averted all danger. The Doctor has a
number of patients along the Eureka
and Palisade railroad, whom he at
tends to through the medium of the
telegraph, and our young friend Mars
den, who uns the lighting at this end
of the line, is receiving a liberal medi-

DR.. l.. Terry yesterday sold the en-
tire stock of drugs, medicines, ETC., in
his City Drug Store TO DIR. j. Fl. Reece,
who will continue the business at the
old stand. They will begin to-day to
tax an account of stock on hand. DR..
Terry will remain in Eureka long
enough to wind up his unsettled bust
ness, which he hopes TO close out in a
very short time. He goes then to San
San Francisco, where his family is 30
%Journing; after which he proposes
making Il trip to Europe. He eX poets
to sail within thirty days, and contem-
plates spending some months beyond
the Atlantic, possibly taking in the
great Eastern war during his absence.
The Doctor has been in business in
Eureka for three years, during which
time, by his genial disposition and fair
dealing, professional and otherwise, he
has made hosts of friends, all OF whom
will regret his departure from IL
midst. Doctor Terry is a first class Cit
izen and business man, and during his
residence in this place he has always
enjoyed, and still retains, the good
opinion and confidence of the commu-
nifty. We are sorry that he has deter
mined to leave us, but may congratu-
late ourselves on the fact that his alb
sence will be but Temporary, as he is
thoroughly welded to the sagebrush,
and intends to again locate in the
mountains of Nevada after he shall
ave taken a little run over to his
friends in France and other European
countries.

a Legal

The Elko independent says that the
judicial minds in Humboldt county are
considerably yexed over the solution
of a knotty legal problem which has
grown out of the acqnittal OF one Peter
Devoe, OIL the charge of housebreak-
ing, for which he was held. While
awaiting trial on the charge of which
he has just been declared innocent, the
prisoner broke jail, was recaptured,
and is now held for the latter o~flense.
The puzzling question now is, does the
breaking of Jail to regain liberty by a
party inc4rcerated for a crime of which
he is not guilty, constitute a criminal
otfenSe?

The citizens of Tybo are agitated
over the water question. The daily
supply of the town amounts to 40, 000
gallons. The mill uses a portion OF
this amount. and the demands Of the
town calls for at least &c $1,000 gallons,
which does not leave a sufficient sup
ply for the mill. A suit has been in
>tituted by ar outside party, who
claims the spring, and the Typo Con-
solidated folks, in view of the litiga-
ton, threaten to shut down the works,
a proceeding which would materially
interfere with the prosperity of the
burg. AS a consequence of the scare.
ity Of the supply, and the interests in
volved, the water question is the all
absorbing topic at present.

Mr.. Jackson has fully concluded to

Main and Bateman streets, instead of
the wooden structure hat was at first
contemplated. 7. r. p. Dimmock,
who will have charge of the work,
visited Schellburn, and examined the
Molinelli Hotel at that place, with a
view of bringing the structure to
this point, but an examination con.
WINGED him that it was unfit for the
purpose intended, and the idea of NOV
ing it was abandoned. AS soon as
arrangements are made, by which the
amount Of brick necessary can be pro-
cured, work will be commenced. A
brick building on that particular
corner will add much to the appear
ance of the locality, and will also be a
protection, in the case of fire, to all OF
the neighboring buildings.

the ants and decentralization mo
the late hostiles are very great, and
that their destination is the buffalo
country east of the Bitter Root mount

in vigorous pursuit. This war is
practically ended. Leaving two COM

dictated in his dispatch of the 18th, to
Immediately collect all his remaining

out, and not a heather in the neigh

a Mind

The gentle zephyrs that wait them
selves down the canyon at this season
were in full play last evening, and
had IN accelerated motion that
ripped and tore things promiscously.
The gale commenced at 4 o'clock and
ragged flriously for the balance of the
evening. The air for the time being
was loaded with dust, gravel, stones,
rags, tin cans, empty packing cases,
old cooking stoves, Stag, old wagons,
whisky barrels and a miscellaneous
assortment of rubbish. The clerks in
the dry goods stores displayed an IN
usual amount of energy in gathering
in the goods so literally displayed in
front of their stores, and notwithstand-
ing the sultry weather, closed doors
was the rule. The sprinkling cart has
done much to render life endurable,
but even it is powerless to allay the
clouds of dust that is borne on the
breeze out of the mouth of main
canyon.s The zephyr that prevailed
last evening would make Eureka,
Rome,S OF any other place, howl.

Promised Sensation.

There. was a promise of a first-class
sensation at the depot Thursday even
ing. A slandered woman, with a
fancied grievance and a cowhide con-
cealed in her dress, accompanied by a
legal male champion, who seemed to
be deeply Interested in her wrongs, lay
in wait in the shadows of the building
awaiting the arrival OF the evening
train, and the appearance of one of the
officials of the road. The time wore
away very slowly, and it was evident
that it took considerable effort on the
part of the Amazonian fury to keep
her wrath up to the sticking point, and
her companion-as the woman's mis-
sion became known to the idlerS on
the platfOrln-looked as if he would
give considerable to be able to retire
gracefully from the field. The train
finally rolled up to the terminus, and
the aforesaid official was called to the
rear end of the train. 1t was a case of
mistaken identity, as the suspected
slanderer declared that up till that
moment he was unaware of the exist
ence of such a woman, but he declared
himself willing to take up the cause
and stand the punishment, if any was
to be inflicted, declaring that the fact
OF the woman's selecting such a re-
dresser of her lancied grievances as
her present companion, was a sufficient
cause and justification of any damag-
ing rumors set aflOat in regard to her
character. The party evidently con-
cluded that they had found the wrong
man, and quietly footed it back into
town, much to the disappointment of
those who were expecting the occur.
renee of a racy sensation.
