rules, which must be observed:
First-Loud conversation is strictly
prohibited; it interferes with readers.
Second-Tables were made for books

of manners, and not conducive TO
morals.
Fourth-Pipe smokers are restricted
TO Lone jack" and cigar smokers
are prohibited from using either cab
bage leaf or Heiianthus cigars.
Fiith-Tobacco chewers must fur
ni>h their own ''expectorants."
Sixth-Scribbling on the margin Of
magazines and papers, and blank
leaves of books, is only valuable to
photographic collectors, and not orna-
mental to a library; and tearing off
covers and OF papers for cigar
lighters, looks too mitch like wanton
humiliation. Matches can always be
had on application.
These rules are only applicable to
paying members. or course mere Wis
itors are lot expected to observe them,
as being neither members % con-
tributors the rules can not apply to

The official letter from tine above
mine gives q very succinct and cont
prehensive count Of operations at
the mine, aud is a model document.
1t will be seen that everything pertain
ing to the workings show the most
gratifying developments. The deposit
on the tenth level is wonderful in its
extent and richness, and there is now
in sight at hat point the largest body
Of ore ever found in the district. The
following is the report in its entirety:
EUREKA, October 20, 1877.
Mining operations have continued
during the week without interruption,
showing good progress in the work of
extending drifts, Raises and wines, aud
the enlarging of slopes, etc.
The third level drift is still going
ahead. with no developments to re
port.
Stopping in the fifth level continues
to develop strength In the ore body,
while the amOuut extracted does not
materially lessen its extent or detract
from its resources, but it apparently
gains new vigor the greater the amount
Of work done in il, and continues good
in character and yield. with encour-
aging prospects for the future.
Ths sixth. seventh, eighth and ninth
levels are all looking we'll and i'm

there developed. and yielding largely
of good ore.
The tenth level ore body IL the best
that has vet been discovered in the
mine, and bids fair to give a practical
illustration of its merits by the devel
opment OF resources beyond the limits
| of present calculations. The develop
msnls reached at this time are simply
grand in the strength and character of
the ore body explored. showing no
break or discrimination of the de
posits. The DRIFT has now been ex-
tended q distance OF 2l5 feet in the ore;
