Tuesday on Dis way TO San frAnci5co,
in search of new constitution" hav-
ing been sick for several months. that
things are looking decidedly bright and
an era of great prosperity will dawn
upon TEN Pahuse at no distant day.
The mines OF the Wyandotte Company
are greatly improving as work progresses
on them and that company is now the
possessor of several large and rich bodies
of ore. Lately there have been several
valuable strikes made in the district, and
all looking and promising we'll. The
Wyandotte Company have purchased
from P. NJ. Gossett the La Quintte
Springs, which are situated on La Quintte
Mountain, some sixteen miles distant
from Tenn Pahute, and was formerly the
property OF the Groom Mining Company.
These springs are on the opposite side
of the mountain from Tenn Pahute, and
il is the intention of the company to run
o tunnel through the mountain and tap
the springs. which is thought can be
done by tunneling inside of HOO feet.
A company of Boston capitalists are ex-
pected to arrive there shortly for the
purpose OF inspecting and purchasing
mines, and the prospectOrs are all busy
putting their claims 10 shape. intending
making big showing on their arrival at
Tenn Pahute. The starting up of the
mill ct Hike will be an immense benefit
to the prospectors, who will now be able
to have their ore hauled from TEN
Pahute to Hike at 1926 per ton. This is
quite an improvement on paying $50 per
ton to have it hauled to Reveille. As
soon as il ia demonstrated that water
can be gotten into Tenn Pshute the Wy
andotte Company will at once commence
the erection of a mill. The Chicago
Company is doing nothing at present.
They appear to be waiting for the Wyan-
dotte Company to solve the water prob.
lem. Several buildings have recently
been erected OF Tenn Pahute and the
place now makes q very favorable ap.
pearance. Girls are scarce article
there.
BRISTOL. Different visitors to and
from Bristol give accounts OF it as being
n very lively place in more ways than
one. For instance, they mention that on
Tuesday from fourteen to sixteen fights
occurred there. and OF an individual from
Typo who proclaimed himself "Chief,"
and who walked up to q poker game,
grabbed q handful OF money, then
walked of. telling the players to g.
and make the best Of it." That kind OF
chief business was played out on this
coast number of years ago, and it is
wonder to US that any man, or men,
would stand such highway robbery. The
Brlstilisns must be apethetic indeed to
allow such things without checking him
not engaged IN fighting Tuesday were
either playing base or foot ball. One
gent of the base ball persuasion had y
finger badly mashed. whilst foot-ballist
had bis shin badly barked. Bristol is
pretty lively, Notwithstanding these little
matters.
PAHBANAGAT VALLEY.-Johnny Davis
informed US that the crops in this valley
are thrifty and everything indicates that
that it will be bountiful one. The
grain never looked better at this time of
the year than 1t did when he left there.
They have not been troubled in the val
ley with frost this year. as has been the
case to the east and south Of Us, and the
fruit crop will be A No. /. The april
cots are now ripe. The almond trees on
Mr.. Davis place will bear fruit this year
for the FIRST time. This will be nice for
the bucks and squaws of Pahranagat
Valley. who can 60 sit under the almond
trees and eat philopenas, feeling thank.
full to the Great Spirit for sending the
''whita man" there to grow nuts for the
Indians.
