Telegram from the mine at Eureka,
Nevada: Weeks run, 800, 900, from
100 tons of ore; weeks produce OF
refinery, $4,000.
r. Richard, March 81: During the
past week operations, both in mine
and furnaces, have been carried on
with the usual regularity, and with
very good results. The 200 drift is be-
ing driven on the quarlzite. The
ground is very favorable for drifting,
but at present there is no ore. The 400
main drift has been driven since my
last 10 feet, with ore all the distance.
The Wine below this level has been
sunk 25 feet in ore. The first II feet
was in high grade ore, and the other
ID feet in low grade ore. The bottom
is looking better, and is now turning
out average grade ore. No. 4 chamber
is turning out we'll and improving
daily. No. 5 chamber is opening out
we'll. The same can be said of No. Z.
These two chambers have been CON
nected by a rise and drift 100 feet in
length, with good ore all the distance.
All the drifts in the mine are without
any material alteration since my last.
The furnaces are doing we'll and smelt-
ing large quantities of ore, and are still
in very good working order after near
ly seven months run.

Bull.

An air of peace and blissful quiet
broods over and around the venerable
Court house. No lawyers vex the air
with noisy arguments; 40 jury listens
YEARLY to hair-splitting discussions,
and no judge pronounces sage decis-
ions. Through the remainder of the
month, Providence permitting, this
order of things will thus continue.
The only signs of life is when some
idler drops into the Clerks office, and
starts a discussion on evolution with
Judge Harmon; and this only contin-
ues for a few brief minutes, as Rufus
soon overwhelms the intruder with
gorgeous rhetoric, beautiful figures of
speech and solid arguments, and the
man retires in confusion. Then the
place is dizziness personitied. If liti-
giants do not come to the rescue pretty
soon, those officials depending upon
the fees of office for a living, will either
have to resign or organize a commune.

The Richmoud rteporf.

The English shareholders are getting
FESTIVE over the non-appearance of that
long delayed report, and the columns
OF the London Mining Journal TEEN
with long. winded etfusions on the sub
ject. We are informed from what we
consider a reliable source, that il will
be submitted directly to the sharehold-
ers, about the middle of June. 1t is
claimed that its appearance will kick
NJ n wonderful sensation, and that the
names OF many of Eureka's prominent
citizens figure in 1t. There is consid
cradle Impotence manifested here TO
learn the drift of its contents. but we
imagine that to those nos interested il
is no secret. and its expected effects
have been discounted and provided for
some time since.

Superintendent Bliss, of the Water
Company, informs us that we were
slightly in error in our remarks in
regard to street sprinkling. He states
that, instead Of there being a scarcity
OF water, there is a plenty and to spare;
IN fact, it is running to waste. The
difficulty is, that Mr.. Harris desires to
sprinkle the streets from the fire
plugs, and the tanke are not of suffi
Client capacity to allow of this method.
The drain would be such that in case
OF fire we would be left without water
TO battle with a conflagration. Mr..
Bliss further says that Mr.. Harris, or
any II else desiring it, can procure
all the water needed for laying the
dust, provided they will take it from
the point designated by the Water
Company. This explanation is perfectly
satisfactory as far as it goes, but does
not remedy existing nuisances. The
drifting, whirling clouds of dirt that
choke and blind us every time a gentle
zephyr sweeps down the canyon. is
getting to be an intolerable evil, and
we cry Justify for relief. Accommo-
date matters in some shape, and wet
the streets. If this is not done,
there will be a volume of prayers go
up to high heaven that will have the
effect of opening the flood gates, and
visiting the Town with a deluge. The
of the good avileth much,
and that class largely predominant in
Eureka.

There is one point connected with the
workings of the Gerrish smelter that
appeals directly to a large class of mine
owners. The fact that it required no
water to cool the walls, as in the cass
OF the water jacket, or keep the tuy-
eres from melting, as with the old style
OF furnaces, is a powerful argument in
its favor, and in the event of its prov
ing a success, will lead to its general
adoption. A ease in point, where this
feature would especially commend it,
is that of the Jennie y property, White
Pine county. That company intend to
build a smelling furnace this summer,
and desire, for economical reasons to
construct it in the immediate vicinity
of the mine. They have plenty of
water to run an engine and supply the
boilers, but not enough tor the wants
of an old fashioned smelling furnace.
If the Gerrish is a success, 1t will re
move this obstacle, and fill the bill to a
dot. If not, then it will be necessary
for the company to bring in the water
from a distant locality, lay four or five
miles of pipe and expend eight or ten
thousand dollars in this operation. The
same thing obtains with may more base
ore mines thai we could name, and the
practical application OF this improve
ment will eventually be of great value
to Eastern Nevada. We hope to be
able to state in a months time that the
new furnace does all that is claimed for
it, and in the event that it ceases to be
an experiment, and chronicles a tri-
umpb, we are satisfied that it will drive
other systems from the field.

Cur Fire Department.

We will back our Fire Department
against any similar organization in the
country for promptness and general
efficiency. The first tap of the bell is
hardly sounded before the machines
are on the street and speeding to the
locality of the conhagration. But a
few moments elapses before the con
nections are made, a stream of water
turned on, and the fire laddies hard ct
work battling with the flames. Our
citizens should be proud of the COM
panies, and remember the boys self
sacrificing eXertions in behalf of their
property. They have already pre-
served us from half a dozen different
fires that threatened the destruction OF
the entire town, and their reputation
aud ability in their line lowers insur-
ance rates, and gives us a feeling of Sc
curity that ought to be substantially
appreciated.

Cruelty TO Amin ais,

"Talk about cruelty to animals"
said an excited citizen in front of the
Jackson House yesterday, "why a boy
tells me that some brute has left a horse
standing in the rear of Dimock's car
penter shop two days without food or
water" The man Immediately start
ed to the locality, with the intention Of
taking charge of the poor horse, and
.arresting its heartless owner. just as
they reached the spot, the youth fell
back a little, pointed to the horse, and
saying, "That's it, pard !" took to his
heels and ran like a 4ck-rabbit, while
a score of juvenile imps up on the Stag
pile burst into a roa of laughter, which
so exaggerated the man that newell,
he did not sing a hymn.
1t was a saw horse.

The Grand Jury now in session at
Hamilton, has indicted Frank Clifford
for grand larceny, and his wife, famil-
iarly known as "Shoo Fly as Access
sorry to the crime. The latter indict-
ment was unexpected and created
quite a sensation. 1t will be remem
bered that Clifford was arrested by
Messenger Brown, at Ward, as the
party who stole a bar of bullion from
the blackboard running between Phoebe
and Ward. After he was i%ncarcerated
in the Hamilton jail, he was married
TO the woman mentioned above, and
since that time she has been taking
very active measures for his defense.
Their trial will probably be set for some
day next week.

Fire Alarm.

The bells peeled out IN alarm of fire
about six o'clock last evening, and the
town turned u en- maSse to assist in
subduing the confiagration. The fire
men had a merry race down Main
street, just enough exercise to excite a
vigorous circulation, and give the boys
a little fun. There vas no fire after all,
only "a huge volume of smoke from a
stove pipe. Everybody felt easier
when that fact was ascertained, for it
was a breezy night, and a fire we'll un.
der way would have played sad havoc
with the town.

Officer Causey last evening received
a telegram from Sheriff Huyck, re-
questing him to arrest two late arrivals
from Typo. He found his men in Joe
Mendes' saloon, and lodged them in
Jail, much TO their surprise and aston
ishment. They gave their names as
Owen Wilson and Thomas Jones, and
claimed that they were entirely inno-
cent Of any crime or misdemeanor. As
this IL an invsriable feature of every
arrest ever made, but little attention
was given to their prorestations. Fur
Their developments in the matter are
expected to-day.

A Remarkable Result,

1t makes no difference how many physi-
clans. or how much medicine you have tried,
it is now an established fact that German
Syrup is the only remedy which has given
complete satisfaction in severe cases of lung
diseases. 1t is true that there are yet thou
sands Of persons who are predisposed to
throat and lung affections, consumption,
hemorrhages, asthma, severe colds settled on
the breast, pneumonia, whooping cough, ETC.,
who nave no personal knowledge OF Boschee's
German Syrup. TO such, we would say that
80 1900 dozen were sold last year without one
complaint. Consumptives, try just one bot
tie. Regular size, 70 cents. Sold by all
druggists in America.

Potts, Chamber Ore.

There is some slight difference in the
estimation of the value of the ore
taken from the Potts chamber by the
Richmond Company. The Eureka
Consolidated Company brings suit for
81, SOC, 900 damages, and Secretary Nor
rison, of the Richmond Company
writes to the London Directors that
the company is in a position to prove
that the market value of the ore re
moved was under $4,000. Just a
slight difference Of opinion.

The Practical Application.

The utility of the telephone as a
means of conveying signals and mes
ages, and its importance as an
economical factor in conducting rail
road operations, can be understood by
its intended practical application to the
wants of the Eureka and Palisade
Railroad Company. Ever since that
road went into operation. there has
been no means of communicating
with trains or learning their where
abouts after they had left terminal
points. The com any owned its pri-
vale telegraph line, and employed OPP
orators both at Eureka and Palisade.
They also had an Office at Mineral Sta
ton, but as there was no business at
that point could not afford to employ
a man to run it, and in consequ ence it
was not available. Hence, if an y ac-
cident or delay occurred on the road,
there was no means of determining the
locality or ause. AS any one, except
a deaf and dumb man, can operate a tel
ephone. all that is necessary is to pro-
vide the cup and connection with the
wires at any desired pointalong the rail
road, and the officials have a system in
working order by which they can con-
troll every foot of the iron high way.
These connections will be made with
all of the section bosses houses at in
tervals of from eight to twelve miles,
and by this means orders can be is.
