along shall fare badly. There was q Turk

minutes before the gallery and parquette

LATEST News from the Property.
The recent decline in the price of Mar
tin White shares led many people to believe
that the new mill had proven q failure.
This appears not to have been the case.
All things are not yet working smoothly,
and there have been some Icaksges. but no
doubt is entertained that the rich ores OF
the mine may be treated in time success.

Of last Saturday has the following
The Martin White Company's mill is
now running up to its full capacity. Some
difficulty has been experienced with the
furnaces from the start, but since step pull
leys have been substituted for cone pulleys
a marked change has taken place md no
further trouble is anticipated. During onr
visit Thursday we were informed by Mr..
Sweetapple that several days previous il
was noticed that the quicksilver was dis
appearing in some mysterious way. Fail
ing to find whore it had gone, it was finally
decided to make q cleanup. Four tons OF
amalgam was the result, and the quicksilver
found in the right place and doing duty.
Among other things, Mr.. Sweetapple
stated that he looked upon the workings so
far only in the light of an experiment, and
that the result 30 far could not be consid-
cred n fair test Of what the mill Is capable
of. We were also informed that the mine
never looked better,

The following is the official letter Of tho
Hamburg Mining Company for the week
ending December 22d /:
D. A. JENNINGS, Secretary-Dear Sir
Tho north drift. 40 feet below the 250-foot
level, continues in good ore. In the north
drift, 80 feet below the 250-foot level. we
have cut the same body Of ore, extending
from the upper Slopes. The connection
between the 450-foot level and the 60O-foot
level was completed to-day, which furnishes
an ample supply Of good air throughout
this portion Of the mine. We will now
continue tho west crosscut on the 600-foot
level, the face of which is in vein matter,
Of the most favorable kind and character,
with some good ore mixed throughout.
We have commenced stopping and hoist
ing ore, which is being. daily shipped to
the furnaces for reduction. The machinery
at the mine is in good condition, working
very we'll.
The weather continues very fine. the
nights being cool, but the days sunny and
mild. resulting in the roads being as dusty
as during midsummer.

stances and conditions, and had been will

Of the humble place Of his beginning. But
let us speak with all decent kindness Of the
dead. The deceased was a bright young
man and was not without a considerable
talent as a speaker. He had been sick, aud,
we believe, destitute for some weeks before
his death, although the serious turn in his
disorder did not occur until within a few

A Pfoche Man Lost ON h Desert.
The Phoebe "Recora" Of the 21st instant
has the following: "On the 18th Of last
November Morris Kane and Matt Mokler
started from FL Dorado canyon for Ivan
pah, and became lost. Mokler desired to
take an old trail, which he was acquainted
with, but Kane insisted upon taking q trail
they had been told about, which was said
to have been shorter. During the second
day out, while in search Of water, they be-
came separated and we're unable TO find
each other. Mokler wandered about for
three days and three nights without water,
at night going on top Of the mountains
and building q large fire Us q signal, SO
Name, If he was in the neigborhood, could
see 1t. After wandering around for several
days he finally reached Ivanpah, but was
unable to learn anything of his partner,
as he had not been seen in that section.
Mokler then secured the services Of an In
dian and went in search Of Kane, and after
a days hunt was unable to find any tracks
of him. He desired the Indian to make
search in several directions, but the Indian
refused, saying there was no water. Mr..
Mokler thinks Kane must have persisted,
as he was on foot and had not o morsel OF
provisions with him, and had then been
without water for two days. When these
two men separated Kane had in his pocket
q check for 500. and a silver watch belong
ing to Mokler, which Mokler had given him
TO carry, as his own pockets were all worn
out. Moklsr had on his pack animal o
silver brick valued at $50, discount off,
which Kane had got at Ia Dorado canyon
in exchange for his horse. Morris Kane
is well knoyn in Phoebe. having worked

"Shall we not rejoice" say all the little
ones who have been attending st. James
Sunday School during the past year. We
have heard how kind and good all our
teachers have been to busy themselves
about us and get nice things to give us on
Christmas Eve. We only wish tonight
would hasten its coming, 80 that we might
have . glance at our beautiful Christmas
Tree. Eut Santa Claus has much to do,
we know, and many little boys and girls
elsewhere to provide for before he comes
to us, SO we must content ourselves by
awaiting until the hour Of seven o'clock,
when he wishes us to be all seated in the
church and look for his coming. We
would not forget. also. the birthday Of Him
whom w come to commemorate at Christ
mas time, and 80 we will sing to His
praises many beautiful hymns this even
ing, such as, "Hark /! What Mean Those
Holy Voices y Hank ! the Herald An
gels Sing y GLORY to God in the High
est" We expect also a short address by
Santa Claus, and the exercises, we are told,
are to conclude with a grand Scriptnral
