Sutro Independent 18th: Owing to
the extremely bad ground encountered
in the header of the Sutro Tunnel dur
ing the month of September, it was
found necessary to 60 over the entire
months work and repair the damage
by the swelling of the ground which is
decomposed porhyry mixed with clay.
Consequently no progress was made in
the header during the week ending the
9Th inst. All repairs for the present
have been made, and work is again pro-
crossing with vigor in the furthering of
the tunnel.

ROYAL CITY ITEMS

As qaietness seizss upon Phoebe i'm.
mediately after the departure of the
various stages for Royal City. and ss in
consequence what little stir that is TAX
ing place occurs OF that town, we can
not do botter than give the progress of
work and affaira there. On Tuesday last
twenty three houses had been completed,
four more were in the course of erection
and the material for three other houses
was on the road from Phoebe there.
Fred Gilmer is picking out route to
run direct from Royal City to Pony
Springs, which, by the new route, will
be- little over twelve miles. 1t is his in
tention to run u siyhorse coach from
Pony Springs into Royal City. and from
ROYAL City run a four-horse coach to
Phoebe. taking passengers either to or
from Royal City at Is cents head.
This line of coaches will be- necessary as
before long rush OF people will be
made to Royal City that will take extra
conveyancss to accommodate. Another
boarding house has been started by a
plac. ia new and we'll kept. and the fol-
lowing bill OF fare, which was presented
to the guests on Tuesday shows that
our Royal City friends are up to the
times: Menu of Jackrabbit Hotel:
Soup-Tails de Boeuf; Eutrees-Fricas-
zee de Jackrabbit, corn, cabbage, roast
beef. mutton and pork; Game-Jack-
rabbit and Cotton.tails; Desert-Jsck.
rabbit pot-pie, apple sauce; tea, coffee,
etc." The lumber for John Roeiers
store is now on the ground. p. II.
Wand has purchased the lot on the cor
nsr above Roeder's location, intending
to open saloon. Numerous other
parties have purchased lots TOR the pur.
pose OF putting up stores for various
kinds OF business, and before Christmas.
If things do not take @ change, there will
be over a hundred houses erected in
the town. A large number of men are
in and around the town and, as usual,
the requisite number OF ne'er do-wells
and loungers; but most of those who
have not work to do are out prospecting
for claims which they hope will prove
similar to the Day niue. At the Day
mine work on the tunnel is progressing,
the whole side of the hill near the lower
cut being leveled down 80 as to afford a
good starter for it; ladders have been
placed in the upper incline. The ore
sacked has been shipped to the Ray
moud X Ely mill tor reduction, in
charge OF Nat. Miller, and from the
number Of assays taken from it there is
no doubt of it yielding pretty heavily in
bullion. Charley GoedicSe il making
arrangements to put up boarding

The Cults Brothers have put up their
house, at which is displayed the map of
the townsite, and the chance to see the
number and position OF the most eligi-
Die lots left for sale.

The Carson Tribune says, Bojie must
be an immensely prosperous mining
camp, for to-day 81 900 pounds OF liquor
was sent from the depot to Bodie. What
other freight the wagon contained we
know not. In every wagon that leaves
here at least two-thirds it contains is
spirituous liquor. Hence we arrive at
the conclusion that Bodie must be q
lively camp, for we never lived in town
on the Pacific coast that was worth a
cent that could not support a dozen
saloons and several gambling houses.
