No Mountain Trout NORTH, of Nevada
From the Times Review

From the Times-Review.l
We heard the other evening a local ich-
thyoIogist make the assertion that such a
thing as a mountain trout was never known
to exist in the streams, the waters Of which
flow into the Columbia river. He said the
small fish which were caught in the Owyhce
and its tributaries were nothing more or
less than young salmon trout. The asser-
ton at first struck us as absurd, but the
facts which he adduced in support of his
theory, almost, If not quite, convinced US
of its truth. 1t is certain that no spawn
has been found at any season Of the year
in any Of the so-called mountain trout
caught in Jack, Taylor, DeFrees or other
creeks flowing into Independence Val
ley. This, Of itself, is con-
elusive proof that they do not
breed in their native waters, or at least
during the stage of existence when they i'll
appearance resemble the fish Of the Hum
boldt and its tributaries. at the proper
season plenty Of spawn is found in the fish
caught in Maggie creek, which flows into
the Humboldt, but which heads within "a
few miles of the source of the Owyhee. AL
though imperceptible to the casual OBJ
server, close examination indicates a differ
ence in the form of the heads of the fishes
Of the two streams, and there are other
similarities which, when carefully noted,
tend to confirm the theory that the small
fish Of the Columbia slope is the juvenile
portion OF the family of Sea or Salmon
trout.

The Doings Of = week.

AAe a1O1AAkS VI ~ w ecks
We collate from the Record of last Sat-
urday the following items of interest:
On Saturday last the grand event, which
has been looked for 70 anxiously by the
citizens of Phoebe and the Raymond & Ely
stockholders, viz the starting of the com
pressor machinery to clear the winze below
the 18th level Of water, took place. On
arriving at the hoisting-works Of this com
pany, we found the compressor working
away pumping air into the large receiver
alongside of it. The machinery worked
smoothly and evenly, giving entire salts
faction.
The Meadow Valley mine has pumped
the water out Of the winze and are now
placing . tank in the drift on the
twelve hundred-foot level for the purpose
of catching the water, SO that there will be
no occasion for pumping lower than that.
When that is completed, which will be in
two or three days, the work Of sinking will
be renewed.
The largest lawsuit that has ever been
brought in this court, with the exception Of
mining suits, was brought on Monday last
by H. l. Thornton against j. w. Wright,
and was for the sum Of SAG, 700. 1t was
about the affairs Of the State Bank Of
Nevada.
The work Of taking down the machinery
from the Phoebe West Extension mine for
the purpose Of shipping it to Long Valley,
to be used by Andy Fife in building his
mill, is going on rapidly and will be CON-
pl ted next week.
A restraining order was issued on Mon
day evening against Pat Long and others,
to restrain them from working through
the Mazeppa shaft Of the ''Only Salvation"
mine.
Mr.. E. D. Turner is announced as o
Democratic candidate for Sheriff Of Lin
coin county.
The Democratic primaries will be held
September 7th, and the County Convention
September 14th.
Mr.. o. X. Wescoatt is announced as q
Democratic candidate for Assessor.

JANEs-sTROUSE.


from the Silver Stated
A week or two ago Mark Strouse, OF Vlr-
GINA City, who had for some time previous
suspected that his wife was not true to her
marital vows, informed the lady that ne
was going to San Francisco on important
business. He left home with the apparent
intention of going to California but
instead of doing SO he engaged an ex,
perienced detective to watch MS VIE, u
remained in the city. She, not dreaming
that a detective was on her track, procured
d carriage and drove to Bowers Mansion
in Washoe Valley. There "she me- by
chance, the usual way" a Professor james,
who had previously been her teacher.
What transpired between them at the Man
sion has not been made pubic, Dut
when she returned to Virginia City
she found her husband at home.
He ordered her to leave the house.
and q scene ensucd in which the
wife Ii represented, first on her knees
i~mploring forgiveness, and afterwards de-
molishing the windows OF her residence
with flower pots. That day the husband
made application for a divorce, which was
granted by the Court within twenty-fonr
hours. A day or two Afterwards she De-
caine the wife Of Professor James, and the
couple are spending the Honeymoon at
Lake Tai o., which at this seison IS the
fashionable resort OF the wealthy Com
stockers. Among the gay throng, there
are none gayer or better received than the
Professor and his bride, who, two weeks
ago was another mans wife. They are, in
fact, said to be the biggest toads in the
puddle, and the papers in tho western part
of the State are %ungenerous enough to at
tribute their reception in fashionable So
ciety to the fact that James has made Il big
raise in Bodie stocks.

cenaral Conner, one Of the Republican
~.ndidafes for Governor, is accused OF be-
inc ! Roman Catholic. The Generals
friends, we understand. deny this atrocious
CHARGE. declaring that, although born in
shst church. he has not affiliated with 1t
for many wears. This excuse, however, is
REGARDED as being too thin, as there are
said 10 DO abundant evidence proving that
Connor's mothers first cousin is or was q
Roman Catholic, and that alonc is, OF
course, sufficient ito damn him with the
party Of progress and liberal idcas.-Vu-
ginia Chronicle.
This ostracism Of . man for his religious
convictions is a sad commentary on the
drift Of the times. The war OF the Revolu-
tion was fought and the independence OF
America achieved that man under the
liberal rule Of the Western World, breath
ing the free atmosphere Of heaven, might
here worship God according 10 the die
tates Of his own conscience. According to
the original idea Of u form Of Govern
nent, there was to be no prescribed re-
iigiou, and the attempt to inaugurate a
different system now is totally at war with
the great fundamental principle for which
the patriot sires risked their lives and for
tunes. We arc not making this point on
General Connor's account, but in q gen.
eral sense. Churches and sectarian in
stitutions Of every kind and character
should DO forbidden to interfere in the
administration Of the Government, but no
man should be ostracised ON account of
his religious views, be he Catholic or
Protestant, Jew or Gentle, Infdel or
Mormon.

WARD ITEMS.
The Trnnspirings of "a Week.

The Transpirinys of u Week.
From Saturdays Reflex" we collate the
following items of interest:
A. B. Harvey, after an absence of two
months, returned to Ward Tuesday. He
has taken in Salt Lake and other places,
greatly against his will, in pursuit Of per-
sons who "played the ten-spot" on a lot of
ore at the Silver Reef mine, at Ruby Hill.
and took it to Salt Lake. He succeeded
in ovcrhauling the parties who got away
with the ore.
From VIM. Erskine, who came in from
Osceola Tuesday, we learn that q man
named HARRISON washed u $500 in dust
and nuggets the day previous. The claim
in which this extraordinary rich auriferous
earth was found is located in Main Gulch,
and once the property of John vizan, who,
thinking the claim worked out, sold it to
Harrison for 500.
Robert Frazer, who killed Michael Don-
ohue at Phoebe on the Doth of July, we
learn from the Phoebe Record, was re-
leased August 18th, upon giving bonds i'll
the sum of $1,000. Contrary to expecta-
ton, the Grand jury ignored the bill
against him, but Judge Rives held the
prisoner nevertheless, making it a similar
case to that Of Bigelow, of Eureka.
Judge Cole has for two days past been
kept moderately busy making citizens.
The applicants, not wishing to go to Ham
ilton for their second papers, have taken
advantage of his presence here, and. to
the number of eight or ten, renowned
their allegiance to potentates, kings, ETC.,
and become citizens Of the United States.
James McKenna, engaged in running a
car at the mill site Of the Martin White
| Company, last Tuesday ran the car il to
the chute and was taken along with it to
the bottom. His upper lip was cut nearly
through, otherwise he was not seriously
injured.
We understand that the work OF putting
up copper smelling furnaces at Robinson
will be commenced Immediately. and that
a contract has beeh let for $50, 900 bushels
of coal.
The bill Of exceptions in the Clifford
case, says the White Pine Neus, has been
allowed by Judge Cole, and the case will
probably soon be appealed to the Supreme
Court.
F. W. Jackson, our postmaster, is at this
time seriously Ill, but hopes are entertained
for his speedy recovery.

MUsr WHITE MEN co

The subjoined timely remarks are from
the Virginia Chronicle:
A Reno paper declared a few days ago
that the Chinese constituted two-thirds Of
the laboring population Of Washoo county.
This, we think. is the most powerful argu-
ment that could possibly be adduced in
favor Of abrogating the Burlingame treaty
that precious heritage left MS by a Repub-
iican administration. Two Cinnamon en-
ployed for every white mani 1t is not to be
wondered at that the white workingmen
Of Washoe county should unite for self
preservation against an evil that threatens
them and their families with starvation.
.'The Chinese must go r. is the slogan Of
kearney. ssThe White man must 20 70
appears to be the sentiment OF the wealthy
employers OF Washoe county. These men
should be wise in time. There is a storm
that has been gathering for the past ten
years all over the Pacific coast. It will
burst n Of these days, II this baleful
offspring Of the lust Of wealth be not set

Tho San Francisco Stock Report is q

bias. Its opinions on matters political are
therefore to be accepted as disinterested.
In the latest issue that journal had we
ind the following
Tho Eureka SENTINEL is making q lively
light against Congressman Wren of Ne
vada, who aspires to q second term, on the
ground that the law firm Of Wren & Thorn
ton are recognized as the attorneys Of the
Central Pacific Railroad. Mr.. Wren de-
mics that be personally has ever had any
thing to do with the legal business Of the
company, and stoutly maintains that that
portion Of the business Of the firm be-
longs exclusively to Mr.. Thornton. We
are rather inclined to believe that while
Mr.. Wren may be technically correct, the
6ENTINEL's charge is substantially true. 1t
IL not customary for Law partners to main
tain q sharp individual line in their deal
ings. Everybody knows that Mr.. Wren is
the head Of the firm, and aside perhaps
from family considerations, Mr.. Thornton
alone would never be the attorney in Ne
vada for that great corporation. 1t is Mr..
Wren's reputation as . lawyer in Eastern
Nevada, that secured the firm that BUSH
ness, and it is in Mr.. Wren's law Office that
the business is conducted. Mr.. Thornton
may attend to the minutia and the little
details, but in Q important case we
imagine II Mr.. Wren's advice was asked by
his young partner he wouldn't refuse 1t.
Nor do We believe he refuses to pocket his
share Of the firms fees.

is the chance of the Workingmen
to have daily paper. First, they
have the Sta, offering to come out
in the interest of the Working
mems party for the use of $500 for
one year, without interest, ard
giving the party the privilege of
the whole stock of the Office for
50, 600 at the end of the year, if they
wish it. Considerate Star! Your
offer is liberal. Next they have
Col. Redst0ne coming to the sur
face, who offers them daily organ
free of any charge. The Star, not
willing to he outbid by Col. Red
stone, comes a second time to the
scratch and offers to come down to
the same price. Where these bids
will step, time can only prove.
There is still another party who is
in favor of continuing the circula-
ton of the Voice of the People un-
der new management, with DR..
Lupo, the Chief of the animal po-
lice, in the local editors chair.
Surely, from all these offers the
Workingmen may make a good
choice, but 1 would advise them to
hold out for a premium.

A Jolly Duel.

The jolliest duel ever recorded
took place in Lyons, France, the
other day. Two journeymeu tai
lors had aquarrel about the cut of
a pair of trousers, and it could only
be settled by a meeting on the field
of honor. Seconds were chosen and
meeting took place at six in tn e
morning in the Tete dor Park.
The principals hal their eyes BAN
daged and were placed back to
back, each with pistol, loaded,
however, only with blank car
fridge, though each supposed it to
be charged with ball. At the sig
nal given they turned and fired.
One of the seconds cried out: ~
am hitW and each combatant
pulled off the bandago from his
eyes, expecting to see bis adver-
sary fallen. The seconds and wit
nesses were roaring with laughter,
and the duelists, seeing the joke,
rushed into Que anothei's arms and
kissed in French fashion. The re-
suit was a grand festival for all
parties at II neighboring res
taurant.
