A Binding Tie.

A we'll known citizen formed a
rather sudden attachment to a lady
pedestrian yesterday afternoon in
front Of the Jackson House. She was
wearing a knit work sha WI, and as
she attempted to pass by, the fringe
became entangled in his watch chain.
OF course they ceased walking, and
then followed IN awk ward effort to
sever the binding tie. His fingers
we're all thumbs, and his endeavors
TO get loose only seemed % entan
gle the two articles the more. The
bystanders smiled, the lady blushe l..
and finally. in pure vexation, tore
the shawl Loose and hurried on. Our
friend preserves several stands of
wool as a memento of the encounter,
and promises to keep at n proper
distance from all female promenaders
in future.

level, was advanced ii feet, making
a total of ALB feet from winzs; no ma
terial change to note in the vein mat
ter passed through. Wine near end
of north DRIFT was sunk ~ feet in ore,
all the ore OF extra good quality. The
ore body south and west of the winze
is opening up finely, and is proving
to be OF much greater proportion than
we first supposed IL TO be.
Four hundred and fifty foot level
Main south driit a advanced 50 feet,
making a Ola from turn table of 3l4
feet; lace In very favorable vein mat
Ter; about 20 feet back of the lace a
seam OF ore and vein two feet wide
was cut. Winze is down within II feet
of 800 foot level.
Six hundred level-South drift was
advanced rs feet, making a total of lob
feet, which leaves but 81 feet TO be run
before connecting with the incline
winze from the 450- foot level. As soon
as tins connection is completed we will
be ready tn Slope out the ore bodies be
tween the two levels Ore bodies in
Wade's incline and south drift are look
ing well. Machinery all in good order
and working we'll.

Heavy Rainfall.

A gentleman just in from Antelope
valley informs us that there was an
immense rainfall on the mountain
range west of that locality Friday
last. The wafer came down in per
feet torrents for over an hour. Dur
ing its fall the hills and mount
ain sides were described as being one
sheet OF running water, and it spread
out at the month of the CANYONS to u
considerable depth. The fury and
force OF the rush of water could be
estimated by the fact of great powders,
weighing tons, being driven OUT in
the valley, and the debris of stone and
brush were piled up several feet thick
At the mouth of the water courses.
The section upon which the storm
ragged with such violence was unset
tied, and no particular damage en-
sued,

A Mean Trick.

1t was a very mean trick for a rival to
play on a devoted lover, and the per-
petrator ought to be ashamed of him
self. A youth and maiden had strolled
to the banks of the reservoir, and as
the dusky shades of night settled down
on the face of the earth, climbed its
sides, and there, with the ripping
waters at their feet, the stars
shining down from above, and the
bright flame of the molten Stag rum
ming from the furnaces near by, light
ing up the surrounding gloom, inter-
changed sweet vows of love. He was
just saying, dear Maria, l would de-
fy the elements TO gain your love-"
when a miScreant stole up from the
rear, and with a bound and vigorous
push, landed the lover in the center
of the pond. His diabolical deed G
compiished, he fled into the darkness,
escaping without recognition. The
victim FLASHED and struggled in his
bath for a short time, but o o re
gained terra firma, and the couple
slowly returned to town. He lett a
trail behind him equal to a sprinkling
cart, and is of the opinion that his
sunday suit is ruined beyond renova.
ton. The depths of depravity to
which hat fellow has arrived at who
gave him that push, is beyond COM
putation. Woe be unto him If he is
discovered.
