1'uE choice Of lubricant is frequently

The choice Of II lubricant is frequently
ill-madc. Common kerosene oil is too
often iniudiciously used in place of a
thicker or more bland OIL because the
heat produced by the friction rapidly
raporilcs the oil, and leaves the Journal
dry. Crude petroleum, for the same
reason, is fitted only for very slow re-
yOlying journals, such MS water-whccls.
For very heavy machinery or for gearing,
tallow and black lead rubbed up together
is the best lubricant, and is also the best
for wHGon and carriage axlcs during hot
weather. For tight running machinery
sperm oil Is the best; good olive oil that
has not become rancid and acid is, per-
haps, the second best, and for winter Use
lard oil is excellent, but is rather too dry
to he II tirst-class lubricant Castor oil
is better for axlcs in the winter time. and
black lead with it is help at any time.

The Bottom Dropped Out.

The expression, "The bottom has
dropped out, is frequently used in Ne
vada, in describing mines which prove
to be worthless, but the bottom dropped
out of the Day mine, at Phoebe, few
days ago, and in doing 50 exposed a fine
body of ore. The Record says
"a miner working in the bottom of
the Wine, known as the AGO foot level,
while engaged in picking ore early
Tuesday morning. suddenly disappeared
through the bottom of the Wine, and
dropped distance of about thirty feet
into large cave of ore, ON the top of
which lie had unkLowingly been work.
ing. The miner swears that he fell a
distance of 5000 feet, and that it took
him an hour and half to reach the
bottom, and that he smelt birthstone ON
the route. The cave is very large and
contains vast quantities of ore. During
the week the men have been engaged
timbering this portion of the mine and
making it safe for them to work in, and
they will to-day start in exploring the
new discovery. Two assays were made
of the ore, one going $50 and the other

Stubborn LNiga gts.

The White Pine News says the beau

illustrated by case tried in the Dis
trict Court, in Hamilton, before Judge
Riyes last week. The subject matter
in dispute was a measley calf worth
81 so. The case was first tried in a
Justice Court, from which it was APP
pealed to the District Court, where
Judgment was ordered entered against
the defendant for the sum OF 81 so and
costs amounting to 1915 10. Some ons

Death of o Pioneer.

Chayles Lewis, an old resident of
Humboldt county, died, yesterday
afternoon, at Humboldt House. DR..
johnson was advised of his illness, by
telegraph, but when he arrived at Hum
boldt House, on the express train, Mr..
Lewis was dying. Charles Lewis carae
to this coanty in early days, and kept
store at HUMBOLDT City. He after
wards removed to Etna, Oh the Hum
boldt river, and since the completion of
the railroad lived with his friend and
benefactor, G. w. Meacham, at Hum
boldt House. He was man of strong
prejudices, but strict integrity, and,
like Henry Clay, would rather be right
than be President. Peace to his ashes.
