ALPS S. N. Yerington stope or
9th level has improved perceptably dur
Ing the week. the vein of rich chloride
having widened out at both east and
west ends OF stope. The vein of chic
ride ere holds strong in west from Wine
to eleventh. The ore extracted in run
ming this drift is SO rich that it requires
sackipg; ten tons of this ore has been
sacked during past three days. The
main winze, 800 feet west OF shaft, 10 be-
ing continued on the vein below the
eleventh; it ia now ten feet below the
station and shows vein of rich chloride
ore at the bottom, two and half feet in
width. drift will be started on Mon
day from bottom of main shaft, to run
west under present development. Work
will be commenced also during the COM
ing week on the main shaft; it is the in
tention to sink it to further depth of
200 feet, The prospect at the Alps mine
is encouraging; quartz is coming into
the face of the south drift and work is
being pushed night and day. The COM
pany have taken possession OF the new
Condor mill and steam was gotten up
yesterday. The side track and trestls
work will be completed to-day and the
first train of ore will be sent to mill on
Sunday; a large amount of first-class ore
being on hand ready for shipment. The
Superintendent says our people will see
at an early day the flag unturled at
the hoisting-works on the mountain,
which will indicate that Old Alps is again
on cash basis.
MARRIAGE.-A very fashionable we'd
ding took place last Thursday evening at
the residence of Mr.. Goodspeed, on La.
cour street. The groom was no less a
person than "Cbarley Beene," one of
Pioche's most prominent Chinese mer-
chants, who was united in the holy bonds
of matrmony to Miss Sen Choy, Mon
golian belle who recently arrived from
the Flowery Kingdom, by Justice U. E.
Allen. Mr.. Goodspesd was the first to
secure taste of the honey on the cherry
lips OF the charming young bride, whose
example was followed by the honorable
Juftice, your humble servant, and the
rest of the boys. Champagne flowed
freely and the health of the newly
welded couple and their future prosper.
ity was drank many times, the company
departing for their homes at a late hour
Mr.. Goodspeed gave the blushing bride
away, and to which gentleman the guests
desire to express their sincere thanks fol
the princely manner in which he enter
tanned them.
PROBABLY NOT TRUE.-On the It'll
instant we published an item saying
that we heard the Meadow Valley Com

then, on the 2Sth of November, Jas. r
Duff, Superintendent of the mine, hal
received q report from the Trustee
showing that on the 18th of last month
they had paid to the iron works $1,000
on account of the machinery. Th
