-Adyiccs from Hickman yesterday were
conflicting. A dispatch to Mr.. Matt. Full
ton dated about o'clock am. put the
deaths at five and the new cases at three
during the preceding "a hours. A dis
patch at the Office Of the Iron Mountain
road early yesterday morning, put the
deaths at three and the new cases at two
during the preceding "a hours. We heard
that DR.. Dunning had received dispatch
putting the cases at go and the deaths at 12.
1t was also stated in the telegram, so we are
informed, that the disease was yellow fever,
with black vomt. The GO cases, we infer,
covers the whole number since the out
break of the disease, ten or twelve days
ago, and the deaths cover the same period.
If the number of new cases occurring on
Wednesday is reported correctly in the two
first dispatches, the disease at Hickman diff
fers from that which has been raging in
the south, for even in the smallest commu-
mites the spread has been at the average
rate of 90 new cases each day from the
time it gets fair start, up to as high rs 80
and 60. Another feature of the lick
man disease unlike the southern fever is
the small per centage of mortality. But
wp are reminded that il makes no differ
ence what we may call tit kills all the
same. 1t makes great deal Of difference
as to what it is called, if it is called prop
erly 1t makes the difference between a
plague that spreads and is fatal and a dis
ease that may be fatal, but is confined to
the community in which it originates. Doc
tors are not inMllible and the Hickman
members of the profession constitute no
exception to this remark.

Eureka as n Gold Producer.

There is a prevailing impression
abroad, and among those not informed
On the subject, that Eureka is an ex-
clusively silver-producing region so
far as the precious metals are con.
cerned. This is a mistake. The ore
from the Eureka Consolidated carries
AZ per cent gold, that from the Rich.
mond about the same, and the X X
Con. 25 per cent. In the latter mine it
has fallen to this ratio lately, formerly
running from 35 to 40. MIR. Porter. a
gentleman we'll posted in the matter,
has collected a great many statistics on
the subject. and the result of his OBJ
servations is that the general average
OF ores snielted in the district will yield
a proportion of one-third gold to two
thirds silver. Another interesting fac:
i, that as depth is attained the proper
ton of gold increases, as does also the
amount of precious metals contained
in a ton of ore. From the above 1t
will be no'iced that our district cuts no
Insignificant figure as a gold producer.

The Day Mine.

In an interview with E. B. Dorsey, a
gentleman who has had charge of the
Day mine, Bristol district, for some
time past. we learn that the prospects
Of the property are very favorable.
The ore body is widening out, and
giving every evidence of permanency.
The assays run very high, but there is
trouble That the M did not
anticipate. The ore is changing in
character, and low carries a very large
percentage of lead, which is constantly
increasing. II this continues the mill
ing process will have to be dispensed
with and smelling works erected.
Captain Day. who IL about to start the
Raymond IL Ely 30-stamp mill on ore
from the mine, is of the opinion that
it can be reduced by the former process,
and will try the experiment until the
point is demonstrated for or against.
Mr.. Dorsey is quite enthusiastic over
the future of Bristol district, and pre-
diets that it will eventually rank
among the first of the silver-producing
regions of Nevada.

Some time since Assemblyman
Smith lost a valuable mare, the animal
having strayed from Bailey's ranch.
He notified a fellow who was berding
stock in the valley of the fact. and
about a week z the man came into
own and told him that he had found
the horse in a band, and that IL would
be necessary To an order before the
owner OF the herd would allow him to
take her away. Smith furnished The
order, and also a saddle for him to ride
the mare back to town, but instead OF
pursuing that course he, as soon as he
got possession, started for Oregon.
Fortunately, Smith heard of his fight,
and by taking active measures suc-
ceeded in stopping him at Beowawe
aud con pelling him to give up the
stolen property, after which act of res
tilution he was allowed to proceed on
his hegirA to the Webfoot county.

Richmond Consolidated.

The London Mining Journal, Of the
I'D ult., has the following In regard to
the above property
Telegram from the mine at Eureka,
Nevada: Weeks run, 10000, from L.
100 tons Of ore; weeks produce of re-
finery, $40, 900.
During the past week mining opera
tons have been carried on without in
terruption. The 200 drift is without
change; the present end is in hard
limestone, with seams OF decomposed
stained lime. The stope above this
level is turning out its usual quantity
OF good ore, and shows no signs of di
minution. The 400 main drift il in
limestone without any ore. The stope
above this level is looking about the
same. The new stope above this level
started from the rise connecting the
400. The 400 Is opening out we'll, and
the height OF ore now seen Is Fl feet,
with ore still in the back. The 500
cross-cut is still in hard Limestone with
occasional seams of stained lime and
irony matter. The 600 on the quartz
ite will be suspended for a time, so as
to make communication from the shaft
direct to this drift for ventilation and
facility of working. The 800 on assure
is without change. The winze below
the 900 Is still being sunk with fair
progress, and the water has not in
creased since last week. We have
started a DRIFT in the 900 on the quartz.
lite drifting towards the line to explore
the ground in that direction. Every
thing in the smelling department isgo-
ing On smoothly.

books Of like character, but if so We
would not like to guarantee their wear

The Calico q

The calico hop last evening was a
very enjoyable party. The hall was
just sufficiently thronged to make it
comfortable for the dancers, and those
present were unanimous in the verdict
that it was one of the most pleasant
affairs of the season. The ladies'
toilets were very handsome, and some
of them were marvels of taste and
skill. considering the fabric out of
which they were constructed. The
music was excellent, the floor in
splendid order, and the revelry was
kept up until a late hour. We under
stand that it VAS a financial as we'll as
a social success, the receipts being
sufficient to cover all expenses and
leave a handsome surplus for the
purpose for which it was gotten up.
