1t is not presumable that every man in
this country bothers his head much about
water drinking or its effects. As a steady
beverage there are many people who prefer
something stronger. But here is an item
from a scientific source which may be of
benefit in these blazing days of sunstroke
and prostyation:
Improper drinking has killed thousands.
There have been instances where thirsty
armies, after long marches, have come to
some river, when the men would lie down
on their faces n quaff an inordinaie
quantity of water, with these results: some
died almost instantly, Others became crazy
and staggered like drunken men. Avoid
drinking water as much as possible while
walking. When you feel thirsty rinse the
mouth wi h water, but do not swallow it.
Drink only when resting. Men, when
heated, should not drink anything cold.
Drink slowly; half a tumbler Of water will
suffice the thirstiest man in the world, if
he drinks it by sips. In fact, it is almost
impossible to get down a full glass of water
in this way.

We are indebted to Mr.. Brophy, Of the
Hot Springs, near Mineral Hill, for a sam
pie of what his ranch is capable Of doing in
the berry line. A sprig, perhaps IS inches
in length, must have carried all Of a quart
OF berries, as large and perfect as any ever
grown in California. Mr.. Brophy also has
in his garden apples and peaches as large
as an English walnut. His springs ON
stitute the finest resort in this part of the
State, affording every home comfort. 1t
is now just the season of the year to visit
this pleasant watering place, that is to say,
1t Is the time to get green peas, new po-
tatoes and other garden sass" A month
later, fruit will be plentiful. We wonder
that more of Eureka's people do not pull
themselves out of the fumes ands.dust and
take a trip to Brophy's.

An Impressive cen mt the County
Jail.

<Aa4
Jail.
{" know not, I ask not. If guilt is In thy heart.
know that | love thee. whatever thou art"
Whatever may be asserted Of the frailty
and frivolity of woman, one thing is con-
coded, that in the history Of criminal juris-
prudence there is nothing more beautiful
in life than the love and d. sotion exhib-
tied by woman to the object Of her affec-
ton. 1t matters not whether it Is husband,
father, brother, or lover, she is ever the
same-constant faithful aud loving. The
world may condemn, friends desert, courts
render Judgment, and the officers Of the
law execute, but the wife and the mother
will ever be found faithful to the end,
even to that dark hour when the grave
opens to receive the loved one. She does
not believe in the guilt Of her life and
blood, whom the law may claim as a victim
to tho violation Of the rules Of society.
The doubt Is ever present in her mind,
and the loved one ever receives its benefit.
II the laws governing society demand that
the loved one shall be punished, she looks
upon the law as destructive Of her life and
tONCs anu Coul tos JahOto anu "AthSooCo 10
her enemies. Faithful to the end-oft
times meeting with rebuff and insult, she
is the very embodiment Of faith and love.
These are elements Of her nature which
no rule can disturb, no law destroy. What
suggested these reflections: We were sit
ting in front Of the County Jail. Sabbath
bells were ringing, calling the ~votaries Of
the Prince OF Peace to duty and devotion.
Several ladies', accompanied with little
children, sought for and obtained admis-
sion. We know not the object Of their
visit, Eor the crime with which he is
charged; we only know that when these
same Sabbath bells were throwing their
deep tones to Heaven there entered the
County Jail good, loving, Christian women,
and innocent, prattling children; and We
know that their presence must have brought
temporary happiness, sunlight and joy to
the incarcerated unfortunate. In the
broad light Of day, when all eyes were
turned upon them, conceiving it to be
their duty to administer consolation to the
loved one, they showed to the world that
the mission of woman is the same as it was
nearly two thousand years ago-first at the
Cross and last at the Sepulchre.

Here is an item from the Virginia Chyon-
icle Of absorbing interest to the stock gam
bling portion OF mankind Several of
the mines on the Comstock have been
doing dead work for some time past, and
are now in a position to do thorough pros
pecting. Among these are the Belcher,
Crown Point. Gould 4 Curry, Best and
Delcher. Savage, Hale 4 Norcross, Mexi-
ran, Bullion and Yellow Jacket. Some Of
these mines are ready TO commence cross
cutting, with a fair promise Of making
some good Developments. Entirely new
sections will be opened up, and ~sanguine

The following is the official letter Of SUI
perintendent Powell. forwarded to the
co~mpany's Office in San Francisco on the
21st instant
d. A. JENNINGS, Secretary-Dear Sir i:
During the past week developments
throughout the mine have been of the
most favorable character. Upraise above
250-foot level shows considerable improve
ment, the vein being more concentrated
and the ore Of extra good quality, carrying
a heavy percentage of lead. Wine below
250-foot level was sunk q feet, making a
total of 101 feet below the 250-foot level.
The material sunk through was ore and
iron, the full size of the wiEza. The $50
foot level, main south drift, was extended
81 feet. making a total Of 500 feet from
turn-table. In the early part of the week
we cut a strong vein of ore, which is IL
feet in width at this point, carrying a large
proportion Of good ore. Tomorrow we
start on east crosscut from south drift, to
connect with the Wine being sunk from
the 250-foot level. The distance to be run
will be about 60 feet. The prospecting
drift on the vein 43i feet south Of turn
table shows a large body Of iron mixed
with ore. The 600-foot main diff was ex-
tended 10 feet, the face in favorable vein
matter. Total length Of drift, 325 feet.

Tomorrow will be the fourth anniver-

row and distress upon the people of our
town. Fourteen lives were lost in the
space of ten minutes, and half million in
property destroyed. 1t was the darkest
day ever seen i'll Eureka The weather is
always threatening at this season Of the

WATER.
Squirting Down n Dust by Jn.
dicinl Order.


Water is a good thing in its way. Prop
erly used, no one can object to it. Some
times the citizens of Eureka have had a
s~urfeit, but no one can guard against ex-
t%raordinary human conduct, much less the
power (" who holds the winds in the hol-
low OF His hand" But why should not
Eureka have more water properly dis
tributed? Why should not some proper
provision be made for their comfort and
safety? These remarks are suggested upon
having seen yesterday morning the street
in front Of the Courthouse sprinkled by
the hose from the Court house, Sweeny's
stables and the ensine-house, and upon
hearing the remark that if - sees this
thing being done he will give you the devil.
Judge Cole is entitled to the thanks Of
jurors, witnesses and lawyers, in accepting
whatever responsibility may attach to the
grave offense Of having the locality men
toned sprinkled for their comfort and in
case a charge should be made therefor, we
assure him that al! parties present, and a
great many outsiders, would make a com
mon cause" with him.

Messrs. Farmer & Lesser, Of the New

New To-Day" that they are determined
to place their mammoth stock on sale for
sixty days at lower figures than were ever
heard of before in this latitude and thus
far from Underwater. There is no hum
bu9gery or advertising dodge in this.
They mean business, as the ladies and all
others of Eureka and the surrounding
country win ascertain by giving them a
call and pricing their goods. The idea is to
make room within the next two months for
an immense stock for the fall and winter
trade. Try the cheap figures at the New

Liver is King.

The liver is the imperial organ of the whole
human system, as it controls the life, health
and happiness of man. When it is disturbed
in its proper action, all kinds Of ailments are
the natural result. The digestion of food. the
movements OF tae heart anu blood, the action
OF the brain and nervous system, are all ilnme-
diately connected with the workings of the
liver. 1t has been successfully proved that

complaint, and all the numerous symptoms
that result FROM an unhealthy condition of the
