FROM INDIAN DIsrKICT.-Captain S. D.
Prescott, the superintendent of the Sultan
| Hill Mining Company's affairs, in Indian
District, at present in this city, says that the
future greatness and prosperity of that sec
ton is assured by the developments that
have so far been made at depth of only a
few feet The Gar and Viceroy, of the
Sultan Hill Company, are looking very
promising indeed. The shaft of the former
is down 115 feet, sinking into a very rich
body of ore, which assays S171 per ton; the
latters shaft is down 1873 feet and has vein
Is feet wide, the ore of which goes S74 to the
ton. The Caliope, owned by Captain Pres
colt and others, has a shaft 90 feet deep, and
ore that assays 1929 per ton. The Illinois
mine, owned in this city, is also very prom
ising piece of property, with an eight-toot
ledge of silver copper glance ore. The
Tower mine, owned by William NJ. Lent,
John F. Boyd and others, is down 200 feet
in rich black sulphurate ore The owners
have already taken out 100000 from that
mine.
POT HUNTERS, BEWARE The APPEAL is |
upon the most Hnquestionable au
thority, that certain Dayton pot hunter have
been shooting grouse and sage hens, in the |
vicinity of the Roach ranch, or what is known
As the ploughed ground. Some fifty or sixty
IF these birds have been killed in direct vio-
alton of the game law providing against such
procedure. Sportsmen in this vicinity are
naturally greatly incensed at this unlawful
conduct on the part of their neighbors, and
nope that the offenders may be arrested and
to pay the penalty. The game
avs have been published in every paper in
he State, and no pot hunter can plead ignor-
nee in extenuation of his violation of them.
he fact is well known to every person pos
essing shot gun in Nevada, that the game
aw does not expire until the first day of Sep
ember.
ANOTHER NUIsANCE.-T latest intlctlon t
'hich is growing to be a nuisance, is the side
ak velocipede, propelled by youths all the
ay from 10 to Is years of age. The young I
5ers are no respecters of pedestrians feet t
,gs or corns, and it seems to be understood p
nong them that everybody NEST get out of y
leir way. Now, there are plenty Of places b
Inside of the Carson street sidewalks where il
lie boys can exercise their velocipedes, and N
here they will be in no ones way. We trust al
lat they will take this kindly hint and dis at
ntinue making nuisance of themselves
