ply is adequate.

the 10th of December.
Delinquent taxpayers should read

menced.
NJ. Koch, an employee of the Sutro
Tunnel Company, has purchased the
Cooney ranch, which is situated on

The Cosm opolitan Social Club, of
this city, re-organized for the season
last Wednesday, with a membership
Of about thirty. 1t Is the intention
TO limit the membership to that num-
Der. There will be . meeting this

Last Tuesday, two boys aged 9 and
10 years respectively, stole ball Of
amaIgam belonging to the owners Of
the Young g. Sirlott mill, and threw

The Wclter mill is to blow its

manently ST srted up on Monday or
Tuesday. A large number Of citi-

Johnny Corbett has bought out
the Ryan & Reardon saloon, at Sutro,
and expects share of public patron
age. He will get very liberal share
of il, because he is one IF the most
popular of the Sutro boys. His
liquors and cigars are of the finest
brands.
The alluviai soil Of the Carson
Valley is pronounced the richest In
the United States. All kinds of veg.
etables grow to an enormous size
there; by the second or third year
from six TO eight tons Of alfalfa per
acre can be cut, which sells for $50
per ton. The cost Of production be-
ing only % per ton, a profit Of $40
TO 500 per acre 10 thus realized.
The profit on vegetables is quito as
great.
Remember that the Literary enter
tainment and ball will take place
next Wednesday evening, and not on
Thursday evening. Thursday will
be Thanksgiving, aud many will eat
too heartily to admit Of any great
saltatorial enjoyment afterward.
Hence it was thought best to have
the affair come off on Wednesday.
Tickets are for sale at the Postoffice.
In this city.
A Mr.. Wilson, Of Cherry Creek,
White Pine, brought a oue-pound
specimen Of ore to the Appeal office,
and expected IL handsome puff in re-
turn; but Sam Davis, whose Com
stock experience has familiarized
him with the class of fellows who
want to get an unlimited amount Of
advertising for four-bit piece of
rock, demurs, aud notifies Mr.. Wilson
that, if he considers himself swindled,
he can get his rock back.
