X TX ConsoIidated.

The cessation of the work of hosting
water at the X X Consolidated was caused
by the loss of one of the baling tanks in the
shaft and the fraying of the rope on the
reel. The company are building a new
tank, which will probably be ready to-day.
Ii is thought that if everything works
smoothly that the water will be sufficiently
lowered to M work on the bulk
head in about a week from date, at which
time u large force of miners will COM
mence Stopping ore from between the sixth
and seventh levels.

We have known for a month pas that at
project was on foot to build a narrow
gauge railroad between Eureka and Beo-
wave, but the interested parties desired no
mention of the enterprise to be made un
til such time as negotiations were con-
cluded and the plans completed. 1t was
supposed a week ago that all connected
with it, in the way Of preliminary arrange
mente, ives an accomplished fact, but since
then, owing to a hitch, caused by n OF
the heaviest capitalists, who had subscribed
the sum of 100000, Withdrawing his sub
~scription, the elimination of the scheme
has been delayed. With the backing it has
received and the different contracts enter
ed into with the mining companies and the
Central Pacific railroad, it looms up as a
most formidable opposition to the e. d
p. r.. r., and would start OIL with the bulk
Of the traffic. 1t is revealing no secret to
state that Leland Stanford is interested,
and that the Richmond and Consolidated
Companies were liberal subscribers, and
would have shipped their crude bullion
and lead by this route. 1t has not fallen
UIOukn Yti Wy Aul IoAh @At ~N~
concerned are positive that it will be built
this season. 1t is claimed that the route
selected is an easy one, that the grades
will be less than between Eureka and Pal
isade, and that but $50 feet OF tunneling
will be required between the two points.
OF the amount Of business to be obtained,
careful calculations have shown that it
would be a paying one from the com
mencement. The Z. x p. r. r.. Company
earned a net surplus Of 8 10000 during
the month of April, and possibly as much
il not more last month. This is a fair in
terest on an investment of 81 ,000, 900, and
il they have no opposition their outlook
for the future ensures them the best pay
ing railroad property in the United States.
The cost of building the new road is esti-
mateg at $500, 900. and that amount was
secured over a week ago. There will be
further developments in a few days, and an
ultimate decision viii. soon be arrived at by
the projectors.

Some unprincipled thieves are making
nightly raids upon Mrs. Beene's woodpile,
and the good lady is somewhat annoyed
thereby, she not having taken a contract to
furnish any one with fuel. The parties
are known, having been watched from the
yard TO their cabins, and now we are wait
ing patiently for an item. There will be a
grand explosion, and q cook stove, and
possibly a shanty, will suffer thereby.
Those who draw their supplies of wood
from that ource will take warning, and
avoid accidents.

A Rtci. Discovery.

The boys made a rich strike yesterday
out on the Secret Canyon road, four miles
from town. Mr.. Atkinson is the lucky
finder, and II the rock brought to town by
him is any indication, the l~ocators lave a
veritable bonanza. An assay made last
night gave a return in silver OF 81 900 per
ton. Specimens Of the ore can be seen at
the Postofice. The new location wss re-
corded Yesterday by the name of the Atch-
inson Union.

How tho Sen was Driven Out.

Surveys made In 1873 Of tho desert lying
west of the Colorado River, and extending into
Mexico, demonstrated fully that 1t was cut oA'
from the Gulf of California by tho sediment
deposited by the Colorado River. The old
shore lines Of tho gulf arc distinctly rocogniz-
ablc away up into San Bsrnariino C1unty, and
great beds of oyster and other marine shells
attest the presence, at no very remote day, of
sea water at places from which 1t Is now one
hundred and fifty miles distant. The Southern
Z aciic Railroad crosses this dricd.up part of
tho gulf, running for over sixty miles At levels
from ono " two hundred and forty feet below
that of the sea. The Colorado River has depos-
ited sand and mud along its course until Its
bod Is, in places fully four hundred feet higher
than it was in the old days, when 1t empted
into tho gulf at least one hundred miles nearer
than it does EoY. 1t continued to pile up
sediments until y dam was formed, reaching
across the gulf to the Lower California shore.
The head Of tho gulf thus became u lake OF
salt water, and, being fed by no streams
gradually dried up. This dam now averages
only hight of twenty-scven feet above mean
high tides. Tho Colorado now hows to the
south of it, but sons triing change of Its cur
rents may yet cause 1t to cut away tho dam to
the north, and TO ro1onvert the desert into
lake. This does not seem as impossible as that
the river should abandon its old bod north of
Fort Yuma and force its way through a rocky
hill; yet We all can see that the latter has ac-
tul lily occurred.-iu,aa Sentinel.

The Excursion of the Season.

Oxford. Md, has history that has stood for
years, and is added to by tho progress of time.
As summer resort it presents attractions
that are rarely surpassed by any OF the coast
cities, although not one-half the effort IS used
that they put forth to proclaim its merits.
Some sixty miles or more from Annapolis in
the midst of the Chesapeake bay, it becomes
inviting for the ploasure-seekcr and searchcrs
for marine sports. For an excursion spot no
more attractive place could be chosen, and
knowing such to be the fact. a party of rcpu-
table gentlemen have gotten one up for
Thursday, August -. The train will
leave here at eight a. m. on that
morning. via the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, and at Annapolis tho party will be
transferred to Tho CommOdiOus steamer
samuel J. Pcntz, al living at Oxford at noon
day. The excursion lists will enjoy four.
hours ride on the bay, and, returning be al
lowed one hour in Annapolis to visit the State
House and other places OF interest Tho OK
cursion will return to the city at nine p. m
For such trip, combining so much travel,
amusement, scenery, aud healthy enjoyment
the price OF tickets have been placed at S2.2i
each. 1t Is properly called the excursion o
