Cabinet makers are fully occupied.
Piano manufacture and jewelry is

going on rapidly. The contractors

DIED.,

OF pneumonia, in Sutro, Decem-
Der 0, Thomas Wostell, aged about
As years.
Mr.. Wostell was one of the Oldest
residents of this county, having come
to Dayton in 1868. When the mines
of Como, in Palmyra District, were
discovered, he at once moved his
family there, and prospered for a
time, but, with the decline of that
camp, he lost his accumulations and
returned to Dayton poorer than when
he left it. When ground was broken
tor the Sutro tunnel, Mr.. Wostell
purchased lot of the tunnel COM
pany and moved his family to Sutro.
Since that time he has lived there
continuously. He leaves wife and
four children, two girls and two boys,
the former being aged respectively
10 and IA years, and the latter 8 and
10 years. The wife 10 supposed to
be absent in the Eastern States,
whittier she went short time ago, on
the receipt of the news of the death
of her mother. Three Of the chill
dren are at Sutro, Mrs. Wostell hav-
ing taken the youngest boy with her.
The house and lot at Sutro is still
owned by the family, and is believed
to be unincumbered. 1t will there
fore suffice, with proper management,
TO keep the wolf from the door.

BRIEF MENTION.

A couple of men have been put to
work on the Vulcan claim, in Amer
ican ravine.
William Illness .soiree, in the
Miners Union Hall last Friday even
ing. was wei; attended.
John Briggs returned yesterday
from q weeks stay in San Francisco
He says the feeling down there is
improving. 81
The Cosmopolitan Social Club, Of
this city, will give one Of their high
ly enjoyable bi-monthly parties in
the Miners Union Hall, this evening.
That part of the Water Company's
flume which crosses American Ravine
on trestlework, was demolished by
the wind which prevailed in this vi
entity last Sunday and Monday.
The wind poured through the
Devils Gate, last Monday, like water
through funnel--in a continuous
stream, and strong men could hardly
keep their feet when walking past
the Gate.
Some of the miners employed In
the Julia branch drift from the Sutro
tunnel complain of toothache. The
disease is probably due to the sudden
change of temperature experienced
in passing from the hot drift to the
cool air-currents in the tunnel.
The miners at work in the lower
levels of the Justice mine are be-
ginning to complain of prickly heat
and the other disorders incidental to
work in the deep mines of the Com
stock. On the 1100-level, and
above, the Justice is so we'll ventilated
by connections with the Lady Wash
ington, Alta and Silver Hill, that men
working there are sometimes com
PEELED to wear heavy wooden shirts.

Mr.. Torp was one of the Commits
sloners OF Storey county. Scrupu-
lously honest and exceedingly lib
eral in all his dealings, scattering
his private wealth wherever it could
be OF use in succoring the needy or
helping friend, he was one of the
few men in Storey county whose
death should be considered public
calamity. This county joins with
Storey in mourning for him, as he
was equally we'll known here as
there. He was native of the
duchy of Holstein, and about As
years old.

YOUNG & SIRLOTTS ENTER.
PRISE.
The Mill Started Up On Ore From
the Emigrant,

Young G. Sirlott's new mill was
started up last Friday evening, since
which time it has been at work unin.
terruptedly. Only four stamps are
working, the other four not being
quite ready. The latter will be
ready in short time, but the pro-
prietors have met with so many de-
lays since they commenced building
that they finally concluded to start
up as soon as set of stamps was
got ready. Besides, the mill is, only
an experiment, anyway, as it is not
yet known whether our low grade ores
will pay when worked for the gold
alone. If Messrs. Young & Sirlott's
venture proves paying one there is
no doubt but that in less than wear
every available mill-site in Gold
Canyon and American, Niger, and
Long Ravines will be occupied BY
mills crushing gold rock, as there are
almost inexhsustible quantities in
sight, and there is hardly a claim in
this district but what can show ore.
The ore worked by the Young &
Sirlott mill is extracted from the
Emigrant through a tunnel, the
mouth of which is not more than 200
feet distant from the mill. In this
tunnel there is ledge which has
been penetrated about thirty feet, the
ore improving as cut into. The face
of the tunnel is still in ore assaying
from SIS to $50 a ton, which is all
taken out and milled. What the
yield will be, however, will not be
ascertained until cleanup is made,
but it is expected to be sufficient to
pay for mining and milling, and
leave a good margin besides. The
cost of mining and milling is not
expected to exceed SO per ton. When
completed, the mill will cost in the
neighborhood of $4,000.

A PUBLIC CALAMITY.
Commissioner TOrp, Of Storey,
Fatally lnjured-His Wife Dan

T0nAiy AJWVu HIS VAo A
gerOusly Wounded.
Last Sunday afternoon Mr.. and
Mrs. l.. II. Torp were thrown from
their buggy, at the corner of c street
and Sutton avenue, in Virginia, and
so severely injured that Mr.. Torp
died within thirty minutes, and Mrs.
Torp's life was despaired of for some
time after. They were driving down
Sutton avenue, when the ring on the
end of the neck.yoke through which
the breast. strap passes pulled out.
This caused the tongue of the buggy
to swing against the fore.legs of the
off-horse. This frightened the team,
who plunged down the avenue. At
the corner of c street Mr.. Torp at
tempted to turn the animals, when
he and his wife were thrown, with
the result above stated. Mrs. Torp
sustained q fracture of both bones OF
the left leg above the ankle, her LETT
wrist was dislocated, her nose brok'
