for the Sick Room.

Ii preparing meal lor any ono whose sppe.
lite is delicate. it should be made to look as
tempting as possible. The tray should bo
covered with tho whitest napkin. and the silver,
glass and china should sbuc WITH cleanliness.
There should not bs too great variety Of
Viauds. and but very small portion of each

With tho doctors permission; otherwise, pre-
psre someihug he Is known TO like and offer it
without previous comment. Ooo Of tho chief
otlc}s OF good NUS, is 10 think for her
patient. His slightest want should be aatic.
pated and gratifad before he be has had time
10 express it. Quick observation will enable
her 10 detect the first symptom Of VERY or ex.
cltement to remove the cause. An invalid
never should be ttased with the exsrtion Of
making decision Whsther the room is too
hot or TOO cold; whether chicken broth, bsef
teu, or cruel is best FIR his lutcaeou, AID ali
similar matters, are questions which should b,
decided without appcsing to him.
Household troubles should be kept as far as
pOsslOls from tne SICK room. SquaDbie5 OF

LAST NIGHTS FIRE.
Is consumss Three Heusss ON Psss-
INN. Hsrses-Loss Not Heavy.

An alarm Of FIRE at 7:l5 last evening
brought out the entire Fire Department
ON short notice. The alarm was first
given from Lower Gold Hill, and the
boys made a rapid run Of it. The FIRE
proved to Re on the south side Of Peta-
luna street. north Of the Masonic oeme-
terry, and hence afforded them plenty OF
exercise.
When the fremen from the upper
part OF town reached the burning build.
inps they found that Lincoln No! 8 Hose
had laid their pipe from Main street mp
as far as 1t would reach. No. ! volun.
tser Hose then coupled on and reached
the Are, which was 800 feet up from
Main street. Yellow Jacket No. 2 took
the upper street, and near the Gale.
douia House attached their hose and
were soon playing on the flames from
the other side.
The FIRE was speedily overcome and
prevented from spreading any further
than when 1t was reached. 1t took In q
small cabin belonging to Thos. Mitchell
and extended Immediately to the two ad-
joining houses, both OF which were
owned by Mitchell. These houses were
too far gone to be saved when the fire.
men got there. The wssternmost oil The
houses burned was occupied by Mitchell
himself. Some OF the furniture in this
house and in that below the cabin was
saved.
The cabin In which the firs originated
was occupied by two men. One OF these
came home o little before aud started o
fire. To hurry 1t up hs put some grease
into the stove. He then went out to
wash himself. When he returned the
whole Of the inside Of the cabin was on
ERE. The wind was sweeping down the
street quite furiously at the time and
helped spread the flames. In the house
adjoining the cabin on the east was q
sick man Just removed from the County
Hospital. He had o narrow escape
from the burning building.
The loss by this fire is not great. The
three buildings were insured for $1,000.
which will rebuild them. The furniture
burned can be replaced for $500. The
building west OF Mitchell's house. and
belonging to Louis Deck, was somewhat
scorched.
Chief Kennedy and his department
arc deserving Of all praise for their sxpe-
ditious squelching Of the fire and for not
allowing It to make an inch on them
after they got there. The boys had o
long run, but made quick time.

Correspondence Ner York Nail.
RICO. Colorado, August 20.
This town Is located between the East
and West Dolores range, about twelve
miles from the head Of the Dolores river.
Many new buildings are going up in
this new and picturesque valley. and
twelve rich carbonate mines are ready to
supply smslters with ore. Miners are
hard at work ct four dollars O day. and
more labor is needed here for putting up
buildings, etc. Poor men who can get
here aud are willing to work will find
this q poor mans Mecca. This town Is
respectable and orderly. The city IL
blocked and subdivided into streets and
lots. though there Is no town organiza.
ton yet effected. There Is not o foot OF
lumber to be had here at any price,
though the mountains afford the finest
and largest pine timber, and the Rio Do
lores has q water power to move ma.
chinery OF any kind for at least eight
months in the year.
Senator Jones Of Nevada, who has
been here from Gold Hill with q party,
expressed himself as greatly surprised at
the wonderful extent and richness OF the
mineral deposits Of San Juan. He bad
no conception Of q wonderful re.
sources, and had NO hesitation in pro.
nouncing San Juan the most wonderful
mineral country on the face Of the earth.
The Senator says that all We need is
roads and railroads; tho capitalists We
can make here ourselves. As the Sen.
ator is regarded as one Of the greatest
mining experts In the world, having
visited every mine OF importance, his
opinion will have great weight with
mining people. Mr.. j. W. Bailey Of
Denver formed one Of the Senator's
party and Is also . great expert. The
Senator and party have bought the
Grand View lode, and also the Phoenix
and Yellow Jacket. They will proceed
to erect smelling works Immediately at
Rico. These mines are on Telescope
Mountain and Niger Baby Hill. The
Phenix lode run from ll5 to 6S2
unces OF silver, the Grand View from
1876 TO l65 ounces OF silver to the ton,
and the Yellow Jacket from 20 to 40
ounces to the ton.
The Senator and party have obtained
for o few hundred thousand dollars
mines that will realize them millions OF
dollars In time.
Niger Baby Hill and Telescope Noun.
tain will soon be as famous as Fryer Hill
in Leadvills. More anon. MINER.
