How TO SELECT FLouR.-In select
ing -four, first look at its color. If it
is white, with yellow, straw colored
tint buy it. If it is white, with a
bIueish cast, or white specks in it, re-
fuse it. Second, examine its adhesive
ness-wet and knead little of it be-
tween your fingers; if it works soft
and sticky, it is poor. Throw little
lump of dry flour against a smooth
surface if it falls like powder, it is
bad. Fourth squeeze some of the flour
tightly in your hand If it retains the
shape given by the pressure, that too
is good sign. 1t is safe to buy flour
that will stand all these tests. These
modes are given by all old flour deal
ers, and they pertain to matter that
concerns everybody.

SUrRo. New, August 26.
This morning ground was broken for the
south lateral branch Of the Sutro tunnel,
at a point 49, / feet from the tunnel en-
trance. This branch will DO OF the same
dimensions as the main tunnel, eight feet
in height by ten fcct in width, and will be
extended first to the Julia mine, and from
thence southerly to Gold Hill and Gold
Canyon, while another branch will diverge
in the neighborhood of the Belcher mine,
towards the American Flat with a lateral
branch. 1t will be commenced as soon as
a full understanding is arrived at with the
bonanza and other mines. The distance
to the Julia mine is precisely 1,400 feet,
and since work will also be commenced
from its shaft, it is expected that the con-
ncction can DO made by the LIST Of Deem
Der next.
The British ship Cape B cton arrived
from Rio Janeiro this morning, and was
Immediately ordered to quarantine below

An enterprise Of great importance to
Southeastern Nevada is about to be under
taken by the Virginia and Truckce Rail-
road Company. Tho Enterprise makes
this reference to it: "At last the long
talked-of railroad south into Esmeralda
il 10 DO constructed. Mr.. Yerington, Super
intendcnt Of the Virginia and Truckee
road, informed us yesterday that the work
would DO commenced Immediately, and
pushed forward with all possible dispatch.
Tho intention is to men at the Mound
House and run thence to Dayton, thence
via Sutro to Fort Churchill, where it will
cross the Carson, and thence by natural
valleys and passes to Walker Lake.
Steamers will be placed on the lake for tho
transportation Of passengers and freight.
and from some point this side Of the lake
Tor more probably for the foot Of the lake,
! branch road will run to the Nine Mile
House, which Is at the foot Of the grade
going up to Aurora. To prevent trans
shipments, and because there is not on the
route any grade greater than twelve feet
to the mile, the road will be broad gauge,
which will enable it to connect directly
with the Virginia and Truckee and Central
Pacific Railroads."
