The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1880-06-05

PERSONAL. Con. Gibfried, one Of the |
proprietors OF the San Francisco Restaur-
ant, was up from the Reef during the
past week, viewing the outlook in Phoebe
He will return here to stay some time in
July. Pat Harrington, for several years
cage.man at the Raymond & Ely mine,
left Thursday for Eureka and Bodie. We
can recommend Harrington as safe and
reliable man for the same kind Of position
as he filed in Phoebe, and he can always
be depended upon. Chas. F. Raymond,
for several years acting as tonsorial arti to
in Phoebe, departed Thursday for the
Eastean States. Charley having made a
fortune here thinks it is about time to
take his ease and comfort.
FRESH M1LK.--We received Wednes.
day can of delicious rich milk from
Mrs. Page, which is the incest article of
the kind that we have drank in Phoebe
We have always been passionately found
of rich milk, and as strange as it may ap-
pear, even during our infancy, but we
must acknowledge that we have never
drank more delicious milk than that Of
Mrs. Pages. The hills are now covered
with bunch grass and her cows get none
but the very best of feed, so all wishing to
procure fresh and unsophistocated milk
will find it to their interest to patronize
the above mentioned lady
BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS. individual
who was out Mt Highland last Sunday
says that things are perfectly lovely out
there. When he arrived he was greatly
surprise to find the ground nearly hidden
from sight with various kinds of wild
flowers-aowers Of such glorious dyes, as
the Rain God paints on the bend Of his
bow in his wigwam in the skies. When
he left there, the ground was totally hid
den from view by flowers, and the brew
cry looked, to him, like mammoth rose
bud, Just about to bloom.
MAIL ROUTE. "A petition is being cir.
culated around Phoebe for the purpose Of
, having Uncle Sam establish a United
; States mail route from Frisco, Utah, tc
Phoebe, distance of only 100 miles stag.
, ing. 1t is claimed that the Eastern mai
ought to come that way, as it would
then be brought here day sooner from
; the railroad than it could by the present
e route. The petition is receiving large
Il number of signatures.
THE grasshoppers down in the valley
:. are getting very numerous and going TO
the green stuff. A number of the ranch
. ers, fearing that the 'hoppers would 60
u up their stock, have driven them int
: Utah. Low-minded persons insinuat
" that they were driven into Zion becaus
: the taxes were 80 much lower there tina
n in Lincoln county. which, of course ",
. not the case.
d LEAv1No.-Quite number of the boy
m are skinnging out, seeking new pasture
o. lures and fresh field, wherein to WOO th'
. GOV goddess, Fortune. A number left fs
Tombstone, Arizona, Frisco and Silv.
Up Reef, Utah, while others have gone
he the new excitements in Colorado. The
=. all would gladly return to Phoebe woul
~ the mining affairs Of this district take
~ lively turn.
NO ASSESSING. work of assessing Il
"a, personal property and real estate
en- Phoebe has now commenced in earne
as and the Assessor and Deputy is hard
re- work at the business. It is not expect'
that the assessment roll Of Lincoln coun
er for the year 1880 will amount to mo
n than that Of 1879.
ose ATTACHMENT BooM.-There is now
'ut Phoebe what might be called an ''attac
we ment boom," the Sheriff having late
4es had to visit officially quite number
an an establishments, and also to garni.hee q

A,r THERE will probably be race g0t'

"downward" boom.
