BURIED BULLION.

The Lucky Discovery Of . Poor but HOnest
Miner.
From the Virginia CNsv ,Chro1icie.
r'For many years past a belief has been
prevalent on the Comstock that in early
days large quantity of bullion bars were
buried by stage robbers In this vicinity,
and that the robbers were killed before
they had an opportunitr of e1huming the
plant. This rumor was secuted by the
general public as being on par with the
story OF Captain Kids buried treasure,
but few old-timers have placed more
confidence In the report than they cared
TO have known, and kept their eyes open
for surface indications. The report was
confirmed few weeks ago in a very sing
ular manner by a laporer In the Sutro tun-
mel named Daniel Connors. He met John
Blewett, the foreman, one afternoon in
the tunnel and, having FIRST exscted a
promise OF secrecy from him, exhibited q
small bar Of bullion about six inches
long, remarking at the same time, That
lookspretty solid, dont't it," to which
Mr.. Blewett responded that if the court
knew herself, and be believed she did,, il

Connors had no objection. and the mutual
health Of both parties was drowned in
eight fiugers Irish metrel Of Sutro whisky,
of the same quality as that contained In
the quart that killed man there a few
weeks ago.
Mr.. Blewett expressed his appreciation
of Mr.. Connors as a workman. He had
always found him to be faithful, indus
trious and competent man. II it was ever
In his power-and it would not be long
before it would be in his power-(and here
he threw out some dark hints concerning

The much talked of go-as-you-please contest
between s. K. Hunt of Minneapolis, and Owen
Sullivan, of st. Paul, is over at last. and Hunt
is declared the winner and champion of the
Northwest.
When the race commenced Hunt took the
lead and kept gaining on Sullivan apparently
without an effort. OF course Sullivan worked
under some disadvantage by his hackers being
absent but it soon became quite evident thai
Hunts long easy strides would soon leave Sui
Ivan way behind, and SO it proved. Il
was much like race between sand hill

track, with occasional short rests, until 2:lO.
when Sullivan retired with a score of IS miles
and IL laps to his credit. He did not return
to the track. After sleeping till morning he
came in the hall and made the announcement
that his hackers had sent him word not to run
any longer. Hunt had retired at2:35 A. M,
