The Moon AND THE TIDEs.-As the
moon revolves around the earth from
west to east, says Prof. Randolph,
she advances eastwardly in her orbit
about thirteen degrees in every twen-
ty-four hours. Hence, when any part
Of the earth in its revolution comes
under part Of the heavens where the
moon was the evening before, the
moon is not there, but has gone east
ward thirteen degrees, and, therefore,
the earth must turn on its axis as
much longer as is necessary to bring
that part again under the moon, which
requires generally, not always, about
fifteen minutes. The same thing oc-
ours the next evening and the evening
after, and thus the moon rises most of
the year about fifteen minutes later
each day. Now, as the tides are pro-
duced mainly by the moon, it will at
once be seen from this eastward move
ment and the later rising each day
why they must occur about fifty min
utes later each succeeding day.
While the lunar tide is thus daily lag
gjng, the solar tide occurs at the same
time. Hence these two tides always
begin to separate after new moon, be-
ing further apart each day, until they
again coincide at full moon, when
there is, as already stated, a higher
tide than usual, called spring tide.
Then again they separate, until new
moon occurs, when they once more
unite, producing another spring tide.
1t must not be supposed that the
whole body of the ocean to it's pro-
foundest depths is equally moved by
the tides. The tides are mainly su-
perfcial, and. except where the water
is of moderate depth, the lowest parts
are only lightly disturbed, but to what
depth the tidal current extends can
never, perhaps, be satisfactorily deter
mined. = Washington Star.

The Ascending Butcher.

We noted some W. weeks ago the
disappearance of one George Bailey,
who had been carrying on a meat mar
ket in Eureka. He faded away from
the opportunities of numerous credi-
tors, leaving no remembrance of his
business career in Eureka except a lot
Of spoiled meat and a large amount of
Indebtedness. We have learned the
following facts in regard to his move
ments since that time, and we doubt
not that it will prove interesting to
those who have an interest in his well
fare. He left in a ~two-horse rig and
drove to the Pancake mine the first
day, stopping there over night. Anoth-
er days drive took him to Steptoe VAL
ley, where he sold one Lorse and the
wagon, and rode the other horse to
Kelton, a station on the Central Pacific
Railroad. There he disposed of the
other horse, and finding himself in
funds, made the acquaintance of sever
al gentlemen of leisure who make that
town their headquarters. They were a
nice, liberal set of fellows, always
ready to set up the drinks, and George
was charmed with their free and easy
manners. 1t is the old story /: the
drunken teamster who came along
with his greasy cards, his pockets lined
with twenty-dollar pieces, which he
was ready to venture on the PROPOSE
ton that II one could guess the joker
with the woman onto it," BY the adj
vice of his new-found friends, George
wagered 500 that it could be done,
and, as usual, found that the drunkard
had taken him in and done for him.
Bailey squealed over the loss of his
money, but it was no use, and he final
ly bought a ticket for the East and
shook the dust of the town from his
feet. Those whom he swindled in Eu-
reka are not sorry to hear of his mis-
fortune, and seeing that they could not
recover any of the coin, much prefer
that the monte sharps should get away
with it. Among his principal credit
ors here are Mr.. Jones, to whom he
owes $500; Mr.. Hathaway, $500, for
cattle; Mr.. Rollins, Sl6O, for sheep;
and numerous small bills aggregating
a total of 81 800.

The ~BnmMhacker Mine.

In the early days the Bullwhacker
was one of the celebrated properties OF
this district. 1t has a shaft to the depth
of 800 feet besides other improvements.
Large quantities of valuable ore were
extracted near the surface, but for the
last two years it has not yielded much.
Lately Geo. w. Farrell, a thoroughly
practical miner, took a lease of the
mine for nine months. Going down
the shaft about 100 feet he discovered
what he supposed to be indications OF
ore and at this point began operations.
He had only proceeded a few feet when
he came on what promises to be a regu-
lar bonanza. Assays obtained from
the ore yesterday gave SIS in silver
and 65 per cent. in lead. This il cer-
tainly very encouraging, and if the
prospect holds out it will not be long
until the Bullwhacker again takes
rank as among the big things of the
Great East.

The Committee on County Officers
Messrs. Bartlett, Fisk and Shoemaker
report as follows:
We find, upon examination, that the
books of the several county officers
are correctly and neatly kept, and have
counted the money in the hands of the
County Treasurer and find it to be cor
rect.
We would earnestly recommend
that the County Commissioners pro-
vide a good safe for the protection of
valuable papers and records ON file in
the Justices office.
The Committee On Public Buildings
Smith, Kellogg and Turner-report
as follows:
We find all the county buildings are
in good condition; but would recon-
mend that the roof of the Hospital be
repaired, as it leaks in several places.
The Committee on Streets-Carpen-
ter, Johnson and Taylor-report as fol-
lows:
We find that the streets are in a very
bad condition generally, people using
the streets as places of deposit for filth
and garbage in many instances. We
find, also, that many use the streets
for business purposes, to the serious
detriment of travel and the rights of
the public TO the same. We also find
streams of water running into the
streets in the lower part Of town from
broken water pipes, and would recon-
mend that the Commissioners see that
the water is turned off in such a man
Der that no injury will result to the
streets.
Respectfully submitted.
