Contrary to the anticipations Of many.
the ball given by the Rescues proved to be
equal in every sense to those given in
former years, and in several respects ex-
celled them. A more agreeable party
never assembled in Eureka, and not a
single incident occurred to mar the even
ine's enjoyment. The hall proved to be
better adapted to dancing than was first
anticipated, and was comfortably filled.
The music was furnished by Pastors band,
and dancing was kept up until an early
hour yesterday morning. The ball was a
complete success, and the Company are to
10 congratulated upon the manner in
which II was conducted.

A singular Accident.

But one accident occurred on the Fourth,
and that was Of a singular character. Jim
Dean, oar we'll known a~uctioneer, has
been suffering from a sore leg for some
weeks. On the afternoon of the Fourth,
while sitting on the porch Of his house, a
fire-cracker exploded at his feet, and in an
instant his limb, which was dressed with
chloride of potash, a most infammable
material, was enveloped in flames. In his
endeavors to ~extinguish the fire his hands
were severely burned. His limb suffered
most, and presents a sickening appearance.
We had hoped to chronicle Jim's conva-
lescence in a day or two, and regret thai
he has met with such an accident.

FIlc Your Documents.

The Phoebe "Record" calls attention to
the fact that many of our mining incor-
porations are neglectipg to comply with
the law SO far as placing on record, in the
county in which they are doing business, a
certified copy of the officers Of such com
pany, from President down. A failure to
comply with this law is a fine Of 5000, SO
we would advise the companies to attend
to this matter at once. or some one may
wish to earn a portion of that fine.

4 MAN HUNG IN TYPO!

Mr.. A. and Mr.. B. started from Typo on the
10th Of last month. Mr.. A.. being an old 4eer,
called ct the woRKINaMAN's CLOTHING
STORE, and purchased . neat and nobby sutnt.
Mr.. B., being . stranger. went to some other
store. and for twice the amount paid by Mr.. A.,
purchased an old shelf-worn suit. On their
return to Typo. the contrast was so ridiculous
that the citizens called an indignation meet
ing, and hung Mr. b. to the nearest telegraph
pole, with the following plscard on his breast
and back:
-"This man did not buy these clothes he has
on from the 'workingman's Clothing Store"
After hanging for three hours, he was pro-
nounced dead. and the people telegrsphed to
the "workingman's Clothing Store" to have
that house send on q suit to bury him in. The
Coroner held an inquest. and returned the fol-
lowing verdict:
w find that Mr.. D. came to his death at the
end Of = rope. the other end being in the hands
Of many citizens; that we hold no one to blame
for his death, as 1t was we'll deserved. Fur
thermore, we would warn any person or per-
sons Who may be coming this way, not to come
unless they buy their clothes at the best and
cheapest place in Eureka. This il

Some very fine specimens Of blue
ore resembling that found in the

bottom of an incline recently begun
from the old tunnel on the Estelle

Disappearance Of the Deputy Con.
stable.

Bart Derham, Deputy Constable
of Silver precinct has not been seen
since Saturday last, and is believed
to have left the Comstock for parts
unknown. The causes which led to
his disappearance are as follows;
A couple Of weeks ago Claus Becker,
of this city, put claim for $40
against Ed. Rule, Ia brother of
Jim" Rule, ex-Superintendent Of
the North Bonanza) IN the hands of
Constable Metcalf in Virginia, for
collection. Mr.. Metcalf collected
the money, and, knowing Derham,
handed it 10 him to remit. Instead
of doing so, Bart gambled it off.
This was last Monday and Tuesday.
In the meantime Mr.. Becker had
given Thomas Taylor & Co., of Vir-
ginia, an order for the money when
paid. This order was presented
last Saturday, when the constable
said he had already turned the
money over to Derham. The latter
being found, he admitted the facts,
and agreed to refund before night.
That was the last seen of him. Con.
stable Hill has been looking for him
since Saturday, but has failed to OBJ

GOLDEN OPINIONS.
Won by the Refusal Of Our Clti-
zens to Accept a State ApprO-
priatiOn in Full.

Silver City is modest and a
model town. Nothing greedy or
grasping about the Silverites. The
town of Silver City is by no means
the richest on the Pacific Coast, but
in downright honesty and good solid
independence it stands first in the
list--may now go up to the head
Enterprise.
The town of Silver City, Nevada,
was partially destroyed by fire two
weeks ago. The Legislature appro-
priated $4,000 for the relief of the
sufferers. Now the good people Of
that town have resolved to receive
only $1,000 of the appropriation.
This act is without a precedent in
the history of Nevada. Winnemucca
Silver State.
Without parallel Silver City de-
clines to receive but 81 600 cut Of
the $4,000 appropriated to her relief
by the last Legislature. She ought to
have leather medal Eureka Leader.
The modesty and self-denial ex-
hibited by the citizens OF Silver
City are certainly unparalleled in
modern history, and should be pic
torially illustrated upon adamantine
tablets. The perpetuation of the
record of an honorable deed just at
this particular juncture in the his
tory of the State might prove the
one grain of salt that shall save it
from the fostering rottenness Of hope
less corruption.-Elko Independent.

the fact, and headed it Eighth
