THE BALD EAGLE MINE.

The known and proved value of the
Bald Eagle mine, its situation on the
great lode, and the certainty of its
future wealth, as proved by present
developments, has caused many to ask
why the proprietors can be induced to
part with their property. We put that
question, yesterday, to Mr.. Mcdonald.
n of the owners, and he gave us a
very good reason. In the first place,
none of the company have eve sought
a purchaser for their mine. and it was
consented to bond it to outside parties.
The gentlemen interested-there are
only four of them-are all men OF
moderate possessions, and the mine
has been opened by them through the
exercise of an abiding faith in its pros
pectiee value, and a liberal contribu-
ton of their labor aud limited means.
They have succeeded, not beyond their
hopes, but to the end that they were SO
sanguine Of reaching from the begin
ming, in opening ont a large body of
ore. that is worth $50 900. This is cal.
Ctlhlcu HUM WndG IS Ill Sigllb. anu IS
proportions are not definitely settled
yet. In fact, the continuation OF the
ledge is looked for at a further depth of
100 feet, on a level now being opened.
Should it be met with at this point
and there is no good reason for doubt
ing 1.-THE mine will morethan thrible
in value. But-and here the point
comes in, as Mac. s~ays-they are also
the owners of a series of mines that
adjoin the Bald Eagle property, in the
richness of which they have the same
faith as they did in the latter properly.
In order 10 demonstrate the correct
pess of their belief, they are DESTROYS
of putting up large steam hosting
works, and improvements that will
enable them TO explore and develop
their locations. To do this capital is
required, and it is for this cause and
no other. that they have consented to
allow negotiations TO be carried on
looking to the disposal of the Bald
Eagle property. For this saine reason
the sale would be a benefit to Eureka
District, as it would add largely to oar
resources, and prove the value of that
portion of the lode that has lain idle
up to the present time. 1t takes capt.
tai as we'll as labor to work the richest
of silver mines. as the preliminary
operations are always expensive; but
we believe, with Mac. and his co
workers. that a rich return will reward
the indomitable spirits who have shown
their faith by their long struggle with
the obstacles that have confronted them
in the past, but who now see their
efforts crowned with success.

At every blast now fired in the head
err of the Sutro Tunnel, small pieces OF
rock and dirt are Jared down from the
roof and sides of the 1000 level drift of
the Savage mine. The sound of the
percussion drills at work can also be
heard at that level. The Sutro Tunnel
is now about 800 feet east of the 1000
level of the Savage, and, probably, on
a linz with the Senator works. 1t will
strike the Savage at a height of about
$50 feet above the 1000 level. and with
In 90 feet of the incline. If the tunnel
Is pushed to the west wall of the Com
stock, it must be driven west about
! 200 feet mere before it can be said to
be completed to the Comstock. But il
the design should be simply to connect
with the advanced workings en- the
lode, then the tunnel need only be
driven west about 500 feet more. The
Virginia Chronicle, from which the
above Is clipped, predicts that the tun
mel will be completed by June next.

LAST EVENINGS LECTURE.

The Rev. John Laird's series of lee
Church, are growing in popularity, as
evidenced by the attendance and the
close attention bestowed upon the dis
course by those who congregate at the
building. The suhjsc matter last
evening was the "Origin of Man." and
the gentleman predicated his premises
on the anne foundation that distin-
guished his former lectures. Granting
the truth of the biblical account of the
creation, a fact assumed by the lecturer,
and the chain of deductive reasoning
brought forward by him, is iucontro.
vertible. Darwin, Spencer and Huxley
stand COMPOUNDED, and Evolution is but
the fanciful theory of science run mad.
To those who pin their faith to the the
illogical side of the question, Mr..
Laird's argument will be most con-
vincing. He rejects the false and ac-
cepts the true, from his standpoint.
HIS opponents, and those who honestly
differ with him. will not be converted,
as his presentation of his proofs shows
no advance nor throws any more light
than has already been shed. A
speculation that is occupying the life
time, and commanding the talent of
the master minds of the world, is not
to be disposed of in a short hours talk.
II will do good just so far as it leads his
hearers to investigate for themselves,
and while it will broaden their knowl-
edge it will. in many instances, unsettle
their faith, and leave them at sea on
the vast ocean of speculative thought,
to dritt rudderless until death shall
either reveal the mystery or roll obli-
vion's tide i've the vexed soul. Many
have questioned the propriety of agi-
tating the subject, preferring TO leave
The field to the scientists; but the latter
have made such lnroads, and have so
disturbed the simple faith that charac.
terized our fathers, that the divines are
forced into the field, and must do battle
with the weapons handed down to
them by the theologians. Mr.. Laird's
entree into the lists does credit TO his
courage, and as he has no more for
midable antagonist than the few books
pertaining to the subject in circulation
among the cultured classes of Eureka,
his tilt is a successful one in his and
his followers estimation. He han
dies the subject e~loquently, as
mt his facts, discredits the theories
of the Evolutionists, and clothes his
arguments in language that entertains,
eve ii does not convince, all OF his
hearers.

MIR Pat. Arnold, late foreman Of the
Alps mine at Phoebe. arrived by last
nights stage en- route for California.
Mr.. Arnold makes the trip in search
of health. He reports mining affairs
looking up in Phoebe. Late develop
ments in Alps are especially promis'
ing. On the loo foot level of the
Mazeppa shaft they have a four-foot
ledge which will mill $3.50 per ton. In
the old Alps also a large chimney is in
sight. The company have a fifteen
stamp mill in operation, and a steady
flow OF bullion will now be in order.
About 80 men are employed by the
company. the force having been in.
creased since the recent discoveries.
Mr.. Arnold thinks the Alps will be-
come a dividend disburser within the
next 90 DAYS.

\ REVERSIBLE BLAST TwEER.

Henry Allen, the well known fur
mace contractor, is a gentleman pos
sessed of active inventive genius. and
a fertile brain in devising improve
ments in connection with smelling
furnaces. He has already received a
number of valuable patents, and his
last, although p very simple device,
is one hat promises to figure largely
in the economical working of ores.
One of the main items of expense is
the constant wear of the fierce blast
and intense heat on the fire-proof
rock of which the furnaces are con
structed, and anything which tends to
preserve or protract their durability is
a most valuable invention. This end
Mr.. Allen proposes to accomplish by
a very slight modification of the shape
of the inner sleeve of the tweers. In
those now in use the blast is always
directed against particular spot,
and as there is no means of changing
its current, the point at which it
stikes wears out quicker than any
other portion of the interior, necessi-
tating constant and costly interrupt
tons to the reduction operations.
Again, the old style of tweers are set at
a pitch of three inches, requiring the
cutting of the rock to conform to the
angle, and leaving sharp faces in the
interior, which are attacked by the
heat, and, soon wearing away. the
tweers drop, throwing the blast on the
iron instead of the ore, interfering with
the combustion, and causing much
annoyance. In the tweer invented Ivy
Mr.. Allen the inner sleeve projecting
into the furnaces, is detected from a
straight line half an inch in the first
three inches, which, carried the length
of the tweer, gives the required three
inch pitch, and allows it to be set in
straight. The stone can thus be cut
square, leaving no exposed angles. BY
reversing or turning the tweer. the
blast is directed to any point, and the
furnace thus protected. wears equally
at all places. 1t is a very simple mod
i~fieation, but one that, if it does what
is claimed for it, will figure very prom
inently in the economy of smelling,
An application has been made for
patent, and a number OF the new style oI
tweers will be manufactured at Pitts
burg, Pa, and put into practical opera
ton shortly.
