BONANZA DIVIDENDS. "A promi-
nent New York paper states that
John W. Mackay, when he passed
through that city few weeks since
en- route for Paris, advised his friends
there to buy California and CONSOLE
dated Virginia stock, saying that in
consequence of Colonel Fairs illness
it had been his business to superin-
tend the mines for the last two
months. He stated that there was
enough ore in sight in the California
to pay the 81 per share dividend for
five month to come. He also alleged
that as soon as the retimberipg of
the main shaft in the Consolidated
Virginia was completed, the payment
of the dividend of So a share per
month would be resumed.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.-Mrs. Rob't
Morrison, better known as "Gentle
Annie," who with her husband re-
sides on the Dayton road about half
a mile below town, swallowed three
fourths of an ounce of laudanum yes
terday with suicidal intent. DR..
Bergi was called, and went prepared
with stomach-pump and nauseous
drugs. At first she refused to take
an emetic, but after the Doctor as
sured her that she would 60 straight
to hell if she did not take it, she
took it down. The emetic operated
as desired and the patient was soon
out of danger. There is no cause
assigned for the rash act, so far as
we learned. Shortly before the &C.
currence Mrs. Morrison went to Stew
arts drug store and asked for lauda-
mum to cure her husbands tooth
ache. Morley Stewart told her she
had better take tooth-ache drops, but
she said laudanum was best, and so
he gave her an ounce, labeled
"poison."
LATER.-On going 20 press it was
reported around town that Mrs. Nor
rison had died, but nothing definite
could be learned.

The Indian War.

The hostiles are now in the south
west part of Idaho and southeast por-
ton of Oregon. That section of
country affords the savages excellent
facilities for prolonging the cam
paign. The mountains are rugged
and tolerably well timbered, and the
plains arc covered with herds of cat
tie. 1t is the most extensive stock
range on the coast, and thousands of
beeves have been shipped from there
annually for the last three or four
years to the San Francisco market.
1t is srarsely settled, the white in
habitants being cattle owners and
vaqueros. There, the Indians, who
have been raiding and numbering in
Central Idaho since the beginning Of
the outbreak, appear to be concen-
trating, and there they will undoubt-
eddy, when pushed by troops, attempt
to make stand. The Indians who
burned the stage near the Owyhee'
estimated to be about 300, have gone
in that direction, and late reports
from Malheur indicate that they will
be joined by the agency Indians,
who are now on the warpath under
Chief Egan, who is said to be half
Piute and half Bannock.
Sarah Winnemucca, who was sent
out by General Howard to treat with
the hostiles, says the Indian camp is
very large, and that Eagle of Light
with about forty Nez Perces and
renegades from other tribes had
Joined them and that the Bannocks
under Buffalo Horn were determined
to fight. Reports from various
sources confirm the belief that the
hostiles are concentrating all their
forces in the Stein Mountain and
Juniper Lake country, and that Gen
eral Howard has changed his plans
and will get all the troops under his
command and march in that direction.
1t is feared that the sparse settle
ments in the region now occupied by
the Indians will all be massacred be-
fore military assistance can reach
them.

shire. Several holes of various depths
were drilled in the bottom and lodges
of the quarry, at rates varying from
two to three inches per minute. The
rapidity with which two men can
put down holes in tho hardest rock
created much surprise. The drills

shaped like the letter S, though a
chisel or cross-shaped point has been
found to give equally good results in

MINING MATTERS.

It is estimated by mining experts who keep posted on the yield of bullion being produced monthly in Arizona, that the amount will az gregate S3OO,OOO, which amount is liable to be doubled within the next six months. Arizona in two years from this time, will lead Colorado in the production of precious mctlls. -TPrescOtt Miner.
 We quote from the Cit.scn of the 22d: Yesterday J. Co!lingwoad 6 Co. received from Townsend x Go, proprietors of the Miami NH. 1868 ounces of silver bullion. This Is the first run of the mil. It is cheering to know that this mill which has re- quired so long time 10 construct Is at last working with great success. Regular shipments are expcc; led from this mill and the good effects will soon be felt not only by the company but by that entire section.
 MT. J. E. Clark who has the con tract for sinking the shaft on the '76 mine tells us that there is too much water in the shaft to permit advan- tage-us working by hand powe r The flow is about 100 gallons per hour and work has been suspended on the mine until proper hoisting werks can be obtained. The ore body is fully as good at the bottom of the shaft as where they first struck ii.
 We learn from Mr. Wm. O'Boyle that the little mill at Hewitt's station has stopped un;il the completion of the furnaces for roasting the ores There is some talk of putting up stamps in place of the pulverizing cylinder-the objection to the cylin- der being that it revolves SO rapidly  that it wears the shoulders and they become heated. in which case much time is lost in cooling. The pro- prietOr also contemplates putting up a Frue conc nirator and after passing the pulp over this to work the tailings hv amalgamation, this would be everything.
