a LeadvIIIe Incident.
Leadville tcoi.) Chronicle, July 30.


An incident strongly Illustrative
of the restless and reckless dispOsi-
ton of the miner finds exemplifica-
ton i'm a late transaction in this
camp by one of this class. He had
labored in the mountains long and
hard, sometimes borrowing an ex-
istence from his generous friends,
and while the prospect before him
seemed bright, yet came not the
coveted carbOnateS. He had about
a month ago became quite discour-
aged, and at one time thought to
abandon the hole he had been sink
ing, but a friend came to his assist
ance with a little grub, and week
later he was in mineral. He now
flattered himself that in a short time
he should be able to compensate
friends who had assisted him in
adversely, and then, he would have
a good old spree. The mine opened
to about six feet of mineral, the
happy owner could not wait for
further developments,-he would
come to town and sell it at once.
He made application to a we'll
known broker, fixing the price at
I
that day disposed of, as he and a
few companions We're that very
night to wind up their long months
of labor by good spree. The bro
ker made an effort to dispose Of the
property, and was TO return an
answer in an hour. When that
time elapsed disappointment came
to both the broker could not sell
the property at that figure at an
hours notice. Now the owner
would take $4,000 for it rather
than disappoint his friends or be
without a pOcketful of ready cash at
the coming banquet. Again the
broker went upon his GRAND, re-
turning with the same stOry-that
time must needs be offered his GUS
toners to inspect the property before
making so great at outlay. But the
miner could not wait, and from the
last named figure the price was
| lowered to 5000, and at this sum
it was offered by the broker and
rejected by his customers. 1t was
! growing late in the afternoon, the
banks would soon close, and all
means for obtaining money cut off.
| He would take three, two, and at
last declared that he must have
money, and if 81 geo in cash were
shelIed down then and there he
would give over all his right, title
and interest to that which the bro
/ kef knew was a valuable property.
At the earnest solicitation of the
] owner the broker drew his check
for that amount, deed to the prop
erty was duly made out, signed and
delivered, and the now happy miner
pulled out for his friends. Here
closes the chapter for that day.
Three weeks later the purchaser
sold the mine for $4,000, and to-
day the last purchaser could not be
bought out for double that amount.

1t is probable. that the change of time
on the Central Pacific Railroad, which
was announced to take place some time
this month, will be postponed indef>
nitely, Tie California papers say that
considerable trouble is still experienced
on the new line of the railroad between
Benicia and Suisun, and it is feared
that this will delay for a. longer time
than was anticipated the putting into
effect of the new time table and the
change OF the main lins between Sacra-
mento and San Francisco. Only day
or two since the track between the
places named sunk out Of line faT some
depth for distance of 200 feet, and
when the rains commence it is thought
the trouble will be greatly increased.
