Some Tall Smenrinx.

The trial Of the opium-snokers was held
in the District Court yesterday. The de-
PENDANTS were represented by Tom Ford
and Mr.. Fitzgerald, aud first entered the
plea that the place in which they we're ar
rested, was not a resort for opium-smokers.
A request for their acquittal was made on
this ground and denied by the Court, after
which three Of the four defendants took
the stand and swore point blank, that they
were not engaged in the vice when arrested
by Fr,d German, The latter had testified
that he had arrested them while the pipes
were in their mouths. 1t was evident the
prisoners saw that their only chance was to
swear themselves out Of a bad box. and
they did it with the best possible grace.
Judge Biyes failed ~ appreciate the point,
however, aud after the jury had convicted
them. with recommendation TO mercy,
he Immediately ordered their arrest
on a charge Of perjury, and they still re-
main in durance vie.

How Ennis Managed TO Escapc.

The Carson Tribune says that Chas.
Ennis, the convicted grand larcenist. who
escaped from Sheriff Kyle, of Eureka,
while en- route for Carson, by jumping
from the Central Pacific train, was for
merly agent for those heavy Eastern pa
tented sbackles, and being short of cash.
: soaked q case filled WITH shackles for
$50 TO a man ia Reno. Not redeeming the
shackies at the appointed time, the man
who loaned the money requested that the
keys to said shackIes be forwarded. This
Ennis declined TO do. This probably nc.
counts for Ennis escape. He doubtle-s
had one Of the keys on his person. and
Watching his opportunity. unlocked his
sliaekles aud made his jump for freedom.
1t is also very likely that Ennis has dis
tributed keys among his thieyinG pals, to
be used in case OF emergency. In view of
this 1t would be well for officers having
prisoners in charge TO doubly secure and
keep watchful eyes on their birds.

The silver Discoveries.

The "Alta California" says there is likely
to be at once a grand rush toward the new
dorado, the just-discovered silver beds
lying some Is miles from the town Of
Laramie, Wyoming Territory. Very rich
ore is reported, aud plenty of it. The
ASSAYS, if reliable. indicate a v%oluptuous
richness OF metal almost beyond belief /;
aud, in fact, we do not believe that tn
assays give a fair idea Of the richness Il
he iodes. The ore is reported a, reaching
from $500 TO 5000 a ton. A ton which was
tested-or, perhaps, only specimens from
a ton-carried 1873 ounces of silver. The
location is such that any person almost
who lives a'oug the line Of the Central Pa
cific Railroad between the Sierras and
Salt Lake. may reach the place without
much tronble. But unless men who are
not capitalists propose TO go there to do
hard work as laborers, they might as well,
and perhaps q little better, not go at all.
1t is only by the use of capital that such
mines can be developed, and the puor man
has but a very small chance of securing a
valuable location.

An Vnemviabie Position.

We have several times called attention
10 the necessity of closing the sinks and
other pitfalls throughout the burnt dis
trict, but as every one who know anything
concerning them, feel confident they would
not be victims, bnt little attention has
been paid to our warnings. Early yester-
day morning one of the girls connected
with a hurdy house, endeavored to enter n
Main street saloon from Buel street, and
as a result found herself wallowiug in a
mire of filth, and she was only saved from
sntfocation by the efforts of a few persons
who happened to hear her cries.

Accident In The pnenix.

An accident occurred in the Phenix mine
yesterday, by which it is probable that
John Cereno will lose his life. 1t appears
the men at the top Of the shaft were en-
gagged in emptying a bucket Of dirt, and
one Of them struck the bucket with a heavy
BANNER in order to loosen the contents.
The BANNER became detached from the
handle, and falling into the shaft struck
Cereno. who was in the shaft at the fifth
level. The only wonder is that the man
was not killed outright.
