INTELLIGENT woRKMEN NEEDED.

Nouce was taken IN a recent issue OF this
paper of the experience of a large shoe
manufactures of this state, who advertised
IN Boston and New York for TWENTY-FIVE
shoe filters to work IN his factory, offering
full current rates and steady work. The
advertisement brought one application.
About the same time a Boston firm adyer-
Used tor a book-kceper, and the next DAYS
mail brought three hundred and forty-seyen
nswers
During the same month an advertisement
for a clerk, in a Detroit paper. brought one
hundred and thirty applications the first
DAY, and a greater number OF letters and
personal applications the next day,
An advertisement for a week in the same
city, calling for a good carpenter, brought
only four replies.
It is altogether probable that in any con-
siderable city in the land, an advertisement
1or a oook-keeper or retail clerk will bring
nlty times as many replies as an advertise
mentor a fair workman in any trade.
le IS also probable that in any and every
CITY the average earnings of clerks are no.
where near so large as the earnings of work
men OF average skill in the various trades.
Further, it is fairly certain that, with
equal capacity, industry, and thrift, the
young man who learns any trade will
achieve a reasonable competence sooner
than the young man who sticks to clerking:
while the chances for materially improving
ones condition are more numerous in the
trades than behind the counter or AZ tho
desk.
Why is it, then, that the boys all want to
be clerks? Why is it that intellieent narents
encourage them in looking for a chance to
" get into business" and in looking down
mechanical employments-as though
there could be any calling more wretchedly
than average c~lerking? WHY is
It that teachers almost invariably train their
pupils to look above' mechanical pursuits I?
what the country wants now is workmen
Intelligent, industrious. thrifty workmen (:
men who can do skillfully the work that
waits for the aoing-who can invent new
means and better processes for deyelonino
the crude, resources of the land, and for
converting brute matter into life sustaining
md llfe-enriching wealth. Mere clerks and
'ecord keepers are at a discount. There are
90 many OF them. And the professions. so
'alled, are almost equally crowded with
men who have nothing to do. There never
vas a time when ability to do something
and practical was worth so much as
low. Yet our young men swarm after
'lerkships. Why is it?-Scientiifc american.

Incidents fn His Life Before He
Came to Eureka.

The Norfolk (va.l Public Ledger" says:
From a private letter received by Captain
II. b Nichols, Postmaster Of this city, we
obtain the sad intelligence of the death Of
Mr.. William A.. Edwards, a native Of this
city, who died in Eureka, Nevada, on the
goth Of July, in the AID year of his age.
Mr.. Edwards was the son OF o. w. Ed
wards, a former well-known citizen Of Nor
folk, and now o resident OF Dalton, Mis-
sonri, and spent the earlier part of his life
here, being well remembered by many of
II people. He held several positions Of
profit and trust here, and when still quite
a young man removed to the West, and at
the breaking out of the war was in the
Indian Agency at Salt Lake City, Utah.
Resigning his position, he came across the
plains to Missouri, where he joined Gen.
Prices army. When Gen. Price crossed
the Mississippi young Edwards came on to
Richmond, and received the appointment
Of Lieutenant in the engineer arm OF the
service, which position he filled with dis
tinction until the close OF the war, when he
returned to Nevada. The deceased leaves
a father, two sisters and three brothers,
now living in Missouri, and a number OF
relatives in this city and State.

EUREKA'S planning MILL.
An Industry Concerning Which
But Lille Is KnOWn.

We were forcibly struck yesterday by the
handsome wainscoating in Charles Lauten-
sohlager's new saloon and by the unique
filigree work on his counter, and were not
a little surprised to learn that it had been
manufactured in Eureka. To see ma
chinery capable Of doing such work was
more than we anticipated finding here, and
so visited the mandatory, which is the
planning mill of J. c.. Harmon, located on
the corner of Buel and Bullion streets.
An hour could be profitably spent there by
any visitor in examining the different ma
chimes and in watching their operation. A
molding machine, capable Of doing the best
Of work, is one Of the chief attractions. 1t
is a four-header, and as high as six knives
can be used at one time, or, in other words,
six different grooves or forms can be cut
on Il piece Of lumber at one operation. A
scroll saw that performs the finest of work,
a mortising machine, and amateur saw
mill and a planer are also among the ma
chimes that are worthy the inspection Of
mechanics. sSome beautiful wainscoating
and other work to be used in the Interna-
tional was shown us, and proves that Mr..
Hall purposes to finish that hotel in the
best manner. All Of the machinery was
purchased in New England by Mr.. Har-
mon and brought here at a heavy expense.

The Lead Market,

The mining Record" Of the 10th says:
Under the influence Of large purchases by
consumers, the market for common do
nestle is firmer, and holders have advanced
their price to Al cents, at which the bulk
Of the available stock is now held. Trans
actions which were concluded during the
early part Of the week aggregate 2, 200 tons,
during the current months, September and
October, at the uniform price of 4 cents.
OF this quantity 800 tons was of Oakland,
afloat and due partly in September, and
partly in October, and the remainder was
about all spot stock. With the limited re-
ceipts Of the past three months, the avail
able supply thus becomes materially re-
duced, and as the outside parcels hereto
fore offering are about all absorbed, the
position of the market is materially
strengthened, and the immediate future
presents a more encouraging outlook.
There must, however, be some accumula-
ton Of stock in the West which high prices
would soon make available. The market
closed yesterday very strong at ~ cents
for common, and An for refined.

solving the ch.rcoa, Problem.

Truckee offers to solve our charcoal prob
lem, as follows, according to the "Republi-
cam: The Eureka coal burners demand
80 cents per bushel for their charcoal, and
the mills will only allow 26ia cents. While
matters are at a deadlock, and becoming
more and more serious every day, ii might
be well to remind the Eureka strikers that
they are likely to lose the charcoal trade
entirely. Truckee can and ought TO sup
ply Eureka with charcoal. At local rates
coal can be laid down in Eureka for less
than 80 cents. By a reasonable special
freight Truckee could supply Eureka with
tirst-c]ass tamarack and limb-wood coal,
equal to the best nut-pine, at rs cents per
bushel. The furnaces have tried this coal,
and are satisfied with it. Sisson, Wallace
x Co. have several fine charcoal furnaces
between Truckee and Prosser Creek, and
with a few days notice will be able to sup
ply all the coal that could be consumed.
Employment would be given to from /, 0
Z, 1000 men and Truekee would be greatly
benefited by the enterprise.

A MODEL FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Quick Time Made by q Virginia
Hose Company.

The Chronicle" says that on Thursday
morning J. A. Brumsey, the insurance
agent, arrived from San Francisco, accom-
panied by J. F. Houghton, President OF
the Mutual Fire Insurance Company. Mr..
Houghton visits Nevada at the request OF
Mr.. Brumsey to examine the condition of
affairs here relative to fire risks. Just to
show him what an excellent fire depart
ment Virginia has it was arranged that an
alarm Of fire should be sounded from the
Ophir, and that No. l hose should get a
stream on the works as quickly as possible
after getting the signal. In exactly two
minute from the time the alarm was given
a stream was sent over the works which
would quench any fire having only two
minutes Roadway. The hose carriage
reached the hydrant in a minute and a
half. In another half minute $50 feet of
hose were unreeled, the nozzle attached
and the water turned on. The distance
from No. hose-house to the Ophir works
is 1 300 feet. Mr.. Houghton said he never
saw anything to equal this exhibition for
quickness and general efficiency. There
was nothing like it ever shown in San
Francisco, where the best fire department
on the coast is supposed to exist. 1t was
the best time ever made by Chief Brown.
He feels so proud about it hat he won't
speak to anyone on the street to-day ex-
cept a member of Congress or an editor.

The trial Of the burners charged with
riot and conspiracy occupied the attention
Of Judge Cromer all day yesterday, and
an evening session was also held. The
Italians manifest a lively interest in the
fate Of their c~ountrymen, and patiently
stand the entire day in listening to the evil
dence. The examination was simply a re-
hash OF events that nave already been no.
ticed, and bore more heavily on Strozzi
than any other individual. 1t was proven
that he was the chief instigator Of the
Alpha troubles, and aided personally in
dumping coal from wagons after they had
been loaded.
Nothing important was developed at the
session OF the Court held last evening.
But one witness was examined, when an
adjournment was had until / o'clock this
afternoon.
1t was currently reported on the streets
last night that the officers Of the Coal
Burners Association had sent positive in
structions to the different localities to
withdraw all further objections to the load
ing Of coal.

LATER.
Meeting at the Sand Lot.

In accordance with notices posted on
the streets, the Workingmen assembled in
immense numbers at the Sand Lot, and by
2 o'clock, Notwithstanding crowds gath
cred on the streets Of the city, over 10, 900
excited men were gathered around the
rude rostrum, shouting, cursing, and call
ing for the blood of Kalloch's assassin.
Clitus Barbour took the stand and ad-
dressed the meeting, earnestly urging the
Workingmen TO await the arrival of Kear-
ney before taking any further steps. The
crowd, however, eager for action, listened
with bad grace to all arguments tending
to delay their vengeance. Barbour con-
tinued, dwelling upon the fact that they
were ~unorganized and in no condition to
cope with the police and military. In re-
ply, the crowd demanded to be led at once
down town, to hang De Young and demol-
ish the s'Chronicie" Office. Barbour in
formed them that the Presidents Of the
Ward Clubs were in session, and had de-
cided to await the arrival Of Kearney,
but that if Kalloch died, they were fully
determined to hang De Young without de-
lay. Tremendous cheering greeted this
announcement.
Mr.. Wright, Vice President Of the party,
addressed the crowd in the same strain.
A dispatch from Kearney was read, stat
ing that he would be down from Vallejo by
the 3 O'Clock p. NJ. boat, m asking that
kilograms be sent to Vallejo to give him q
full statement Of the condition Of affairs
on the way down, and that action be de-
layed until his arrival.
Mr.. Flynn. Secretary Of the party, read
o message from Kalloch counseling the
meeting to be moderate and wait for Kesr-
ney's arrival.
VIM. Wellock and Cross, Of Nevada City,
candidate Of the party for Attorney Cen
counseled moderate measures.
Stephen Maybell. who has been promi-
nent at the sand lot heretofore, attempted
to excite the too ready crowd to deeds Of
violence, but was suppressed by those on
the stand, although the crowd was with
Maybell and clamored wildly that he should
be heard. Other speakers sought to quiet
the people assuring them that in case Kali
loch's wounds proved fatal summary ven-
geance should be taken Of his murderer.
This was the only expression that called
out the unqualified appreciation Of the
crowd, which finally &c ,eed to remain quiet
until Kearney's arrival.
There is no doubt that in the event Of
Kalloch's death q determined effort will be
made to storm the Jail and lynch both Of
the De Youngs. The military companies
and clubs Of the Workingmen are meeting
and organizing, and the excitement con.
tinues at the highest pitch. Kslloch still
remains in his study at the Metropolitan
Temple, and cannot be moved. Throngs
Of men, women and children gathered in
the vicinity, but ropes are stretched across
the streets and quiet is preserved as far .:
possible in the immediate neighborhood OF
the building. His condition remains prac-
tically unchanged and extremely critical.
