| Coop News From UNION. - Yesterday
there were good reports from Union Con.
which sent the stock up until it sold for $50
on the street. A very healthy advance in SO
dull season. The Chronicle of last night
gives the followin. regarding it: From
Superintendents Patton and James it has
been ascertained that for nearly three days
the northeast drift from the Union shaft to
the Sierra Nevada incline, on the $500 level,
has been cutting through stringers of ore,
leading into the triangular section Of unex
plored ground south of the Sierra Nevada in
cline and bounded by the northeast and
northwest drifts and the east drift from the
Union shaft to Wine NJ. l. Several weeks
ago the northwest drift passed through
streaks of very rich ore on the opposite side
of the triangle, some distance south and east
Of the point where the ore has now appeared.
None of these streaks were wide enough to
pay for working, but finding them on oppo
site sides of large section of ground indi-
Gates that there is an ore body within the
limits of the triangle. How large the ore
body may be no body can say, as no cross
cuts or drill holes have been run from either
side. The gum and substance of it is that
they have good prospects in this part of
Union, and that it will require considerable
preliminary work to put this portion OF the
mine in condition for further explorations.
The northeast drift is being pushed from both
sides. and the connection will be made to-
morrow. The heat in the northwest drift,
from winze No. l retards works, aud some
days will elapse before it is cleaned up and
he grade changed to drain water from the
winze. The south drift will not reach Wine
No. 2 for nearly a month, and until that work
shall have been completed and good circu-
laton of air secured on the $500 level no
need be expected.

KILLED BY BEAR.-The Chronicle of last
evening contains an account of the death Of
Luigi Barnett, an Italian sheep herder, who
was killed by bear near McKinney's sta
ton on the sheres of Lake Bigler, on Monday
last. The body Of the man was found in a
ravine, horribly mutiated. and in fact very
little of it was left. The indications were
that the man had climbed tree, from which
he had been shaken down by the bear and
dsvoured. The lower limbs of the tree were
ripped from the trunk, and the empty revolv-
er of the Italian was found not far away. The
tracks of the bear showed two toes missing,
which accords with the description of Old
Brin, sent to the APPEAL yesterday by John
Hemway, from SmalPs station.

TICKLE GRASS. - The most pestife rou.
plant which grows in Nevada in the infamous
| tickle grass. We know nothing of the botan
ical name of this cursed weed, and care less.
The story goes that about twelve years ago it
was brought to Carson and planted az an Or
namental grass, and when it is fresh and
green it has a most attractive appearance.
When it dries a marked change comes over 1t.
A seed floats away from the top with long
shoots radia'ing from it and when blown by
the wind looks like grampa longlegs turning
somersaults. These seeds with their outrid
ers have a rem ,rkable aft atty for clothing
and a touch of their sharp points causes all
unpleasant itching. 1t is rare fun to see a
crowd of women who have walked through
lot of this grass sit down in room and try
to talk gossip with feeling that thousand
needles are slow y penetrating their stock
ings. Wherever seed falls big bunch Of
tickle grass manifests itself and it has gained
such footing in Carson that it will never be
rooted out. People may devote four hours a
day to the cultivation of blue grass and a
little bunch of the other sort will get into the
yard and overrun it. The preachers take the
pains to tell us that the works of Providence
cannot be improved upon, but according to
our notion if the maker of the universe had
made tickle grass hard to cultivate and blue
grass hard to eradicate the arrangement
would be highly satisfactory to Carson City
