STOCKS.

The outlook of the market, in respect to
prices, is anything butencouraging. No sooner
does one of the listed securities make amove of
few dollars upwards, than there is.a precon-
certed action taken by the Bears to squelch it.
The small buyers are sickening uuder this
treatment, ana their growing poverty, or dis
gust will soon be the m cans of inducing them
to withdraw from the market altogether The
inside Bears and Bulls will then have an OPP
portunity to fight it out on the Kilkenny cat
basis. Authentic reports from the Alta mine
say that it looks better now than when the
stock was selling at $29. Yesterday the stock
was quoted at $3.50. Now, if any one will
explain to us, for the benefit of our constantly
increasing number of readers, upon what prin-
ciple these stocks rise and fall, we will con-
slider that person public benefactor.

account of the constant use of this machine ii
became necessary to have the blade of the

has a mechanical turn and is of course inter
ested in all pertaining to the office, as soon as
it was put in place started in to experiment
upon it. He wished to know how well it
would cut He tried it. He found out.
While placing the thickness of paper in Pc
sition, and before he could get his lilly white
hand out, the knife came down and guillotine

he is now able to resume his duty at the end

Editors who are neophytes, or neophytes who
want to be foremen, or little boys who are

hell, or do we getfull punishment for our sins

warned and point not The father and baby

CASE OF DROWNING AT THE LAKE
CORONER DECLINES TO HOLD AN
INQUEST.

Quite an excitement occurred at GlenbrOok
the other day over a most extraordinary
event. 1t is well known that when any one
is drowned in the placid waters of that
emerald sea the body never rises to the sur
face 1t will be remembered that when
accidents of this kind have occurred in deep
water, there have been no exceptions. Even
where persons have been drowned in shallow
water the remains did not rise to the surface.
1t was therefore a matter of greatest surprise
and wonder to the citizens of the city on the
shore when it was reported that
BODY HAD FLOATEp ASHORE.
For time the greatest excitement prevailed.
Every one wished to see it, and women and
children rushed down to the point designated,
which was below Capt. Pray S mill. In a few
moments large crowd had gathered around
the body, which had actually washed ashore
and bore evidence of having been in the water
for a considerable time. The Coroner was
Immediately sent for but could not be found
for some time While the messengers were
hunting him a discussion arose as to whether
oSANA 'A
was held. Some strong arguments were used,
but it was finally decided to take it out of the
water, but not to move it out of the line of
the spot where it foated in. In few moments
THE CORONER
Who had been engaged on the outskirts of
the town, hurried to the spot As he ap
preached he selected his jury, by picking out
prominent citizens on the purlieus OF the
gathering. By the time he reached the body
the jury was empaneled, but they smiled, the
crowd smiled, everybody smiled except the
Coroner, who thought it an infringement
upon his dignity if not an insult to his office
to be called to hold an inquest on the body Of
a dog, even if it did float ashore. He declined
without thanks and the poor canine was left |
without the honor of an inquest, and to-day |
the escutcheon of the proud Office of Coroner
of Glenbroo is stained by the fact that the |
first body which foated ashore on the banks |
Of Lake Bigler was left unhonored and uu-
recorded save by this desulUory item. But |
Hank Monk informs Us that the Coroner |
only returned from Stockton last week.

A MUD BATH.

Yesterday morning, an individual carrying
an extra heavy load of tangle-foot, while at
tempting to cross the street near Sheyer's dry
goods store, stumbled and fell into a mud
puddle. He got upon his knees and hands,
but he couldn't make the rifle and fell again
on his face. This time he took in a mouthful
of the slush in the puddle Several other at
tempts were made to extricate himself from
his unpleasant position, but they were futile.
At length coed Samaritan, in the person of
4 newspaper reporter, came along and assisted
t unfortunate wretch to the edge of the
: ewalk, where he was left to crust.

FROM HON. THOMAS WREN.

FROM HON. THOMAS WREN.
Hon. James Crawford Superintendent of
the Mint, yesterday received a letter from
Congressman Wren, under date of Washing
ton, D. c., the 10Th instant, from which the
following is an extract:

SOFT PLACES WHICH NEED ATTENTION.-ln
view of the coming storms, (Which we wish
they would come on), our attention has been
called by one of our oldest and most careful
citizens to some soft places within the City
limits, upon which his argus eye has rested
with solicitude for many month and year
Here it is to be noted, that this is not mute
appeal to the Street Inspector, though it hap
pens to be a case which comes under his direct
and immediate supervision. Of course he
will supervise, but the citizen above named
wonders why he don't, aud why his predeces-
sor did not, and why no one attends to 1t.
On Second St. at the corner of Ormsby, run
ming down from some subteranean or surface
deposit in the regions beneath Maish's saw
mill, is a stream or pool or slough or slew or
water drain or something which makes a very
soft. disagreeable mud hole at all times, and

NEVADAS WHITE FISH SPAWN

Commissioner, to whom had been consigned

reached San Leandro, Call, they were found
to be literally cooked. Upon receipt of this
information, Commissioner Parker made an

ATWATER.


A large and interesting meeting of
the Puritans was held at Atwater
Center last week. The conference
continued three days and was particle
pated in by large concourse OF people
from all parts of this and adjoining
counties. The exercises consisted of
some very instructive lectures, and
fine singing and . sumptuous dinner.
Altogether it was joyous affair, and
all seemed to confirm the text Behold
how good and how pleasant it is for
brethren to dwell together in unity
The confirmation meeting at the
Catholic. Church at Randolph called
together an immense crowd. From
early morn till long after service COM
menced the teams and carriages came
swarming in from all directions, until
nearly two Thousand people were
present to witness the confirmation of
sixty.four young members, who. tor
the first time. partook of the Lords
Supper, and we're received into full
fello of the Church.
Last week there was an effort to
establish an Independent passenger
line between Atwater and Deerfield,
in opposition to the regular mail
route. Seven persons, ranging from
the tender age of seventeen to the
weather beaten of sixty, came to the
score, but as one came in about a
length ahead, he was entitled to the
first heat.
We were the happy recipients of a
visit from our Ravenna friends, Messrs
Dipley and Shields. Although their
stay was brief, we enjoyed it very
much, and their newly formed &C.
