Atase of

A Buel-street husband, whose wife
has talked him to the verge of the
grave, bought a large invoice of chew
ing gum the other day in hopes that
by keeping her jaws at work on that,
it would so weary them that she would
be unable to bestow on him the usual
amount of seedlings. 1t made no diff
ference. however. Her tongue flew at
the rate of 700 strokes a minute, and
she would chew the gum with one side
OF her mouth and talk with the other.
He spent all of his leisure time in
deep meditation. and finally studied
put a new strategem. He went to a
shoemaker's shop and procured a big
chunk of shoemaker's wax and mixed
il with the gum. The next morning
she came down cheerful rs ever, took
up her "chaw" of gum, and started out
to blow mp her liege lord. But she
didn't do IT,. The first time she set her
teeth in the gum she was seizsd with
a combination lockjaw, aud now si-
lencs and quiet reians supreme in that
household. All the noise that can be
heard is the clink Of the locksmith's
tools in the darkened room where sits
the wife, with her Jaws in a sling. and
a crowbar with a 200-pound weigh b on
the end of it, and the point inserted
between her teeth. The doctor fears
that the only remedy LEFT is to blast
her jaws apart with a charge of giant
powder. The husband has gained
thirteen pounds in weight since the
catastrophe, and objects to any cure
that will restore her speech.

The Eberharat ana Aurora.

We are in receipt of reliable inform
alton confirming the development in
the Eberhardt and Aurora tunnel, in
White Pine. The strike was made at
a distance of 2, 100 feet from the mouth
of til e tunnel. AT latest accounts the
whole face of the tunnel. which is OKLA
feet. was in good ore, assaying 500
per ton. Great Importance attaches TO
this discovery, as it establishes the
depth and p~ermanency of the mines of
Treasure Hill beyond any reasonable
doubt. We may now hope to see
White Pine take on something of her
former prosperity. The ores of that
section are the richest and freest in
the State, and the only question hith-
erto has been one of depth. The strike
in the Eberhardt and Aurora tunnel
settles that matter, and it is not i'm
probable that hundreds of old White
Piners will now hasten back to look
after mines that have long remained
idle. Our neighbors are greatly re-
joiced at so important a development.
The SENTINEL extends congratulations
and expresses the hope that the old
camp may again become what it was
in 1865 8.

Bonded Miuos.

d. w. Mckenzie started for San
Francisco on this mornings train, and
will be absent a month or six weeks.
He has bonded the Hodoo. California,
and a series of mines lying south oil
the Connolly and directly ON the great
mineral belt, aud during his absence
will incorporate the property and or.
ganize a company with Q sufficient
working capital to develop the claims.
The properties. which viii be handled

des and others, and are among the
most desirable and valuable on the
lodss, situated as they are on the belt
that traverses the country from the
Richmond To the Hamburg. That ur-
der the impetus Of capital and ex-
ploitation these mines will develop into
the front rank, there is no doubt, and
Mr.. Mckenzie has been very fortunate
to procure control of them. He is al
old pioneer of Eureka, a thorough
aud experienced miner, and his Judg-
ment can be relied on in all matters
pertaining to the mineral resources o.
the district. We are satisfied that bis
