OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
A Nevada Storm. J
SPRING Cry, NV, JAN. 1886

DPklnG OlTI, NEW, JAh' looo'
Dear father y = x All |
can write you at this time is about the
storm and our escape to the mine for
safety. 1t has been storming here for
several days. Last night about eight
o'clock it began to blow fearfully.
We saw we we're in danger by staying
in the house and consulted whether
we could reach the mine. We con-
cluded if we staid in the house we
would be killed, and if we tried to get
to the mine we could but die on the
way. So we tied a rope around Frank
and Morrison took the end. l got a
pair of blankets and John Switzerland
some bedclothes. We crawled to the
mine on our hands and knees, leaving
Bill and Charlie in the house. When
we reached the mine John Launder
was there in his night clothes. He
was living in saone cabin, but the
wind tore it to pieces. II carried the
roof about two miles. After we were
in the mine between one and two
hours Billie and Charlie came in and
said the house was gone-that the
wind broke in one side and took part
of the roof, and when the rest began
to 60 both left it to the fury of the
storm and crawled to the mine. We
saved what moneJ we had. Frank,
Charlie and myself got our horns out,
but Billie said his might go. After
we were in the mine three hours the
storm moderated little, but we staid
in all night. This morning we came
out and found the house pretty well
wrecked and everythin 3 inside buried
under snow. Some of the men went
to work and repaired tho house, so we
are ready for another storm to-day.
Charlie went with Launder to hunt
the latter's clothes. They found a
few about mile on the other side of
the mountain. The wind carried one
of James Harveys out-houses two
miles away to the valley below us.
We have been out of work for few
days. | went to work this morning
Charlie starts in the morning and Bill
next week, so all will be busy in few
days. * Is This leaves us in
good health. * * s. I forgot to
mention that the distance from our
house to the mine is eighty yards.

VALUE OF Products AND PROP
ERTY.-A table from the agricultural
department shows that the staple
crops of the past year have been
worth nearly 100000 more than
the year before. The statistician of
the department is gathering material
for similar tables as to other values.
He estimates that the increase in val
ue of real estate and mining
property will not fall below $l,000,-
100000.

BITuMINoUs CoAL.-There has been
but little inquiry for Georges Creek
coal, Notwithstanding the favorable
freight rates prevailing at shipping
points. 1t may be recorded, as a
matter of interest, that some few car
goes have been forwarded to tide
water via the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal this month, no shipments ever
having been made before, with one
exception, as late as January. There
are signs of another strike among the
miners of the Georges Creek region,
and consumers of this class of coal
must expect to pay higher figures the
coming season. Prices still rule at

LIBRARY OF UNIVERSAL KNowL-
EDGE.--Volume ~. of this great work,
published by the AMERICAN Book
EXCHANGE, New York, was ready
January 18th, and Volume V. will be
issued about ten days later. They
have been delayed somewhat by the
printing of the large editions of the
previous three volumes and the other
publications Of the house, their facili-
ties for manufacture having been
taxed far beyond their capacity.
Removing January LIST the 7'i-
6une Building, and to the Barge
building, No. 26 Beekman and No.
l8 Spruce street, where their fa-
cilities will enable them to manufac-
ture from 5000 to 5000 volumes a
day, the publishers expect to complete
the entire work within the year, as
announced. The volumes thus far
issued being only the reprint of the
last edition of the well known Cham
bers' Encyclopedia, nothing more
need be said of them than that they
are well printed and bound; their
form is vastly more convenient than
heusually unwieldy quarto or octave
and their price is cheap beyond all
precedent in book-making, so that to
the uninitiated it is mystery how so
much can be given for little money,
but to the practical printer and book
maker, who knows how the greatest
element in modifying the cost of
books is the number of buyers among
whom the investment cost is to be dis
tiibuted, the wonder would be not
that the books can be made for the
price, but that the number of buyers
should be counted except by millions.
Those who take pleasure in the dis
semination of useful knowledge and
choice literature will be glad to aid
with their influence an enterprise SO
altogether worthy. The publishers
will send any quantity of descriptive
catalogues to those who may apply,
for distribution among acquaintance.
