Commissioners of White Pine county
asking the Court to compel them to
redeem certain warrants, issued by the
City of Hamilton several years ago, to
him, for the sum of about So 900. The
petition recites that the Board issued
a notice setting forth that they would
redeem the city warrants to the lowest

to surrender bis warrants on the pay

Needs HaDging.

On Tuesday afternoon last, a little
girl. whose parents reside in the north
western portion Of the town, came in
from the street crying and very much
agitated, and upon being questioned
told a story that left no doubt that
some lustful brute had been tampering
with her. She had been tenn pied into
a stable by the promise OF some candy.
but becoming frightened at the Villains
actions, the poor child commenced to
scream and cry, which alarmed him to
such \ degree that he desisted and left.
Unfortunately the girl could not give u
very accurate description of the man.
and there Is but slight hope for his
identification. The father, who &C.
quainted us with the facts, and who
desires that we shall not mention
mares, assured us that there would
have been nc necessity for the inter.
ference of the law If he had been able
to detect the scoundrel. In view of
the above, we would suggest the adj
visibility of parents keeping a watch.

We are indebted to Captain Foley
for the following notes descriptive of
the Industry mine.
The work done on the Industry mine
by the present l~essees, aggregates In
tunneling over 400 feet In length.
About 20 feet from the mouth OF the
upper tunnel, there IL a cross cut 20
feet in length out of which 20 tons of ore
were extracted that yielded Sis per
ton.
Ninety feet west from this cross cut
there is a drift As feet in length, con.
Meeting with the upper workings, drove
In order to ventilate the mine, and
from this drift l6 IONS OF ore were taken
on that averaged $3.50 per ton, gold
and silver. There is a large body of
ore still remaining In this drift, which
has. by exploration, been proved to
have an extent of so feet in length, and
a thickness of four feet. with an indefi
mite width. At the end o! this crit,
o u No. 2 Is being driven. and AT
the present writing. Is in 8 or ~ feet.
AT this point a connection has been
made between the north and south
raise for the purpose of dispelling the
gasss that have accumulated. From
this point a cut runs east about 20 feet
in length, following q l4-inch streak of
ore.
About I70 feet from the mouth of the
lower tunnel, or the old workings, an
upraise is run. having ore all the way
that averages $l60 per ton. At inter-
walls of Is pr 20 feet. slopes are found,
nut of which considerable ore has been
taken. AT the end of this upraise,
shale is encountered everything the ore
body. This upraise connects with the
lower workings.
In other paris of the mine, ore of the
same character and quality is being ex-
tracted. The Of work done by
Maurice Hartnett, the lessee OF the
mine, aggregates 1000 feet in tunnels,
Slopes and drifts. The vein averages
in thickness from a few inches to four
feet. The lode is encased in clay shale,
and a hard, dense, blue limestone.

The sad news of the death of Louis
Loschenkohl, the victim of the recent
accident at the X X Coo. mine, was re-
ceived in town yesterday afternoon.
His decease was not unlocked for. in
fact. was anticipated hourly since the
occurrence. His injuries were of so
frightful a nature. and his system re-
ceived such a severe shock, that but
little hope was entertained of his re
covery. All that medical skill or care
full nursing could do, has been lavished
on him, the doctors having been in
almost constant attendance, and his
devoted wife has remained at his bed
side. denying herself rest and sleep, in
her anxiety to relieve his sufferings,
and soften the pangs that racked and
tortured his frail body. 1t was per-
haps a mercy that death came to his
relief. Ill fortune, that has pursued
him like an attendant sprite, has done
its worst. and is barred by the grave
from INJECTING further trials and troub-
les. To the widow and orphan this IL
but poor consolation, and IL must seem
a bitter sffiiction t lose their protector
and support; to miss the strong arm
and manly guide who has fought the
battle Of life undismayed, and returned
to the conflict when other less hopeful
one would have been crushed under
the burden. The sympathy Of the
community will go out to them in this,
their hour Of tribulation, and Heabove,
Who chasteneth whom He loveth, and
Who "'tempers the wind 10 the sborn
lamb" will not forget them in their
hour Of sorrow.
MIR. Loschenkohl was a good citizen,
and had a large circle of friends. who
esteemed him tor his manly and ON
panionable qualities. He came 10
Eureka from Elko county, some five
years ago, and was employed by Cap
tain Platter as chief engineer at the
Atlas works. BY his untiring industry,
be accumulated some property, but
was a heavy sufferer by both fire and
flood, which swept away the fruits OF
his toll. Deceased was 80 years of age,
and leaves a wife and one child. The
funeral will take place from the resi-
dence, on South Main street, at 2 O'Clock
tomorrow afternoon, and will be con-
Quoted under the auspices of the Ma.
sonic Fraternity, Of which Order he
was member.
