The Tya,<, Mail.

Last Saturdays Typo Sun has the follow
ing: Yesterday we heard that Messrs. Bell
4 Co. have refused to carry the mail under
the present contract. II it is true it leaves
Tybo and Belmont in a bad predicament,
without mail facilities. We were afraid of
this when WI learned that u stranger had
taken the contract Mt such a low figure.
The contract was taken for less than the
work could be performed for; consequent
~. the contract is thrown up, and we are
left without mail communication. OF
course the bondsmen are responsible, but
the chances are the bonds are not worth
the paper they are written on. That's the
way they generally are in cases like this.

PIOCIIE ITEMS.

From the "Recorl /" Of the 10th.


A lady Of Phoebe. who had been SLAM
dered, traced the affair to its author, and
on Thursday evening, with the aid Of a
six-shooter, compelled the individual who
had uttered the SANDER to walk to her
abode, where he was made to deny to the
man to whom he had related it, that ne
had made such statements. Til result
was that the lady was satisfied, and the
man to whom the slanderer made the state
ment put a good-sized head on him. Served
him right.
Yesterday morning. as the Nevada Cen
tral train was coming to Phoebe with q
load of wood. one Of the cars jumped tie
track and upset, throwing off three men
that we're IN it, two Of them escaping I'M
hurt, aud the third, Mace Dixon. had the
entire load Of wood thrown on him. injur-
ing his side and breaking some bones. He
was brought down to Mrs. Hanby's, where
the doctor attended to him.
On Sunday last another cave occurred
in the Meadow Valley mine, whereby q
mirser named Collins was confined under q
pile of dirt for two hours before he was
finally rescued. When the cave occurred,
Collins saved his life by pressing a board
above his head, and thus keeping the dirt
from coming down on him. When Col
Inns was released he rescmbled q ghost
more than a live man.
Andy Fife has nearly completed his
quartz mill at Long Valley. and calculates
to start up about the LIST Of December.
Tom. Andrews las started in as foreman
Of the Raymond 4 Ely mine for the under
ground work below the 18th level.
]. b. MCGEE has returned to Bristol. and
the probabilities are that the Hillside furn-
ace will start up about the Goth.
1t is a very easy thing to tell a successful
candidate; they all wear new clothes.

Ii n Of the main. drifts Of the Phenix
they are running through a quartz forma-
ton which, in other mines along the ore
belt, resembles the foot wall. 1t is not at
all improbable that when this is pierced
through an ore vein will show itself that
is worthy Of notice. A great many along
the Base Range are particularly interested
in this property. and to see the Phenix
shine forth as a tirst-class bullion producer
is the heartfelt wish Of tho people Of this
immediate section.

As we were coming up past the Eureka
furnaces, last evening, the men we're roll
ing down the contents Of the Stag pots at
the usual rapid rate. One Of the pot ulls
retained its form until ii struck the ditch
Of water, and then there was q report like
that Of a heavy blast, and the fragments
flew in every direction. We are told that
during heavy snow-storms, in the trans
portation vt these pots from the furnaces to
the dump, explosions sometimes occur, and
such are not unattended with danger. On
this particular occasion We laid as thin as
possible behind a 4 rail.

The town of New Richmond,
in St. Croix county, issued bonds
to the amount of $l2,500 to the
North Wisconsin railroad, bearing
7 per cent interest. The towns of
Star Prairie and Stanton, for the
same purpose, issued 362,50o each.
The railroad pays five per cent on
its gross earnings, which is issued
to liquidate the interest on these
bonds. For 1877 it amounts to
enough TO pay the entire interest on
these bonds, and leave surplus in
each town. AS our informant says:
cit is a good investment for the
town."-PoM Go. Press.
There are a couple of tall old
buildings up town that will sud
denly fall one of these days and
hurt some one. They now lean at
greater angle than the towers of
Pisa. We refer to the Isaacs build
ing on End street, and the Caldwell
& Weiseger building directly op-
posite. The owners ought to pull
them down at once, and not wait
till they have bill to pay for
damages from their fall. The town
would not look half as bad as it
does if good many of its old
rookeries were razed.
