NARROW ESCAPE. Tuesday afternoon,
January Doth, MILFORD Bushard, of La
fayette, had narrow escape from a
watery grave. He was coming to town
with load of wood and when crossing
the Minnesota river above the free
ferry, the ice suddenly gave way ire
cipitating all into the river at q place
where the water was seven feet deep.
Through the promt action and perse-
yerance Of MI. Bushard, who promptly
cut the horses loose from the sleigh,
the horses were got out without any
serious injury. Farmers. and others,
driving on the river can not be too
careful, as the ice is but one foot thick
at any place.

ACCIDENT ON HOLINESS ROAD
DR.. Geiger Thrown from his Buggy
and Severely Injured.

DR.. Geiger, of Virginia, met with
quite a serious accident last Tuesday
evening, on Holiness toll-road, few
miles beyond Dayton. He was on
his way to Bodie in a buggy drawn
by his sorrel stallion, when the horse
ran away, throwing the doctor out.
He struck ON his head as he fell, and
sustained several severe bruises and
cuts about the face and forehead.
The stallion was stopped at the toll
house. John Ludwig, who was on
his way home to Mason Valley, over
took the doctor, who was walking
leisurely with two splinters of the
broken shafts in his hands, and evil
IDENTIFY suffering from alteration Of
mind. Mr.. Ludwig took the doctor
to the dollhouse, and left him in
charge of the keeper, who bathed his
head and put him to bed. The next
morning DR.. Geiger continued on his
way, his two sons, who were follow
ing with a six-horse team, having
come up in the night.

THE SAVAGE STILL sSEALED."
How q Prominent Mining Super.
intendent Found This Out.

Contrary to the general expecta-
ton, the Savage mine has remained
closed to outside barbarians not en-
ployed there Notwithstanding the
connection with the Sutro Tunnel.
Superintendent Osbiston, of the
Gould & Curry and Best & Belcher,
thought that an exception would be
made in his favor as he supervised
the adjoining mines, and last We'd
nesdsy morning he asked Pasha
Gillette to let him down. The Pasha
consented, and sent Mr.. Osbiston
down with miner bearing a mes
sage to Brad. Williams, the foreman.
When the 1640-level was reached
Mr.. Osbiston was taken to the end of
the drift close to the station. The
air was very foul, but he said he
would 60 on.
"No you shan't," said Mr.. Will
liams. "a.
"But SHALL" insisted Mr.. Osbiston,
who thought Mr.. Williams was So
licitous tor his life. 81 have stood q
great deal worse than this. Besides,
there are miners in the drift, and
what they can stand / can"
Finally, Mr.. Williams having told
him that he positively could not 60,
he returned to the incline, and picked
up the "dispatch' which was written
on chip of wood, as is the case
with all written messages sent down
the shafts. 1t read as follows:
"Take this snooZer to the mouth Of
the drift, where he can get sniff of
the sinking air, but don't let him
in. g."
His disgust can better be imagined
than described. He swears to get
even on the Pasha.

NEWS FROM MASON VALLEY.
Kimber Cleaver's Report OF the
Crop acknowledgements to
Settlers in that Locality.

Kimber Cleaver, of Mason Valley,
was in town last Thursday, on his
way to the Mound House, to get
some agricultural machinery for sale
in the valley. He has got tired of
punching mud" as it gave him the
rheumatism, and has dissolved part
uership with his brother, who now
runs the ranch on his own account.
Mr.. Cleavcr says that the crop out
look in the valley is very favorable.
Over 5000 tons of alfalfa will be
cut this year, besides a large guam
tity of blue joint and other wild
grasses, and probably 10000 bushels
of grain. Mr.. Cleaver says that there
is still large amount of unimproved
land in the valley which can be got
at government rates, with plenty of
water handy for irrigating purposes.
Parties in search of place to settle
in might find just the kind OF a
country they have been looking for by
going into Mason Valley. The eli
mate there is considered the best of
any locality in the State. Very lit tie
snow falls and it seldom lays on the
ground over twenty-four hours at a
time, and there is good grazing for all
kinds Of stock the year round. The
ranch produce is in good demand, at
fair prices; and with the development
of the mines in Esmeralda county bet
ter prices than heretofore will doubt
less be realized.
