Station that the mines in that vicinity are
looking well, especially the Sierra Nevada,
Cumberland, Farrigate aud Congress. The

vest with profit in the vicinity, and thai
the mines are sufficiently developed to JUS
tify the expenditure Of . considerable sun
in searching for their hidden treasures.

The COlvtIles.

The descriptive advertisement Of the
Colville troupe appears in our columns
this morning. Their reputation on this
coast is SO well known that it is almost I'M
necessary to speak Of their merits. Their
success here is unquestionable, and the
management deserves encouragement for
their pluck in bringing such an immense
organization to Eureka. A nightly change
of programme will be given, with the full
company in each piece.

An article appeared in Sundays sENrI-
MEL, copied from the Engineering and Min
ing Journal, stating that Superintendent
Read, OF the Eureka Con-, had made a
favorable report on the Z" Kite" mine, and
had spoken in fattering terms OF the strike
in the Eureka Tunnel. Mr.. Read says he
knows Of no kite" mine, and has never
been in the Eureka Tunnel, so the report
ia consequently incorrect.

averted on the railroad crossing on Carl
boo Hill. A team, containing two gentle
men and a lady, was crossing the track
leisurely. the gentleman being engaged in
conversation, when the lady suddenly ex-
claimed, There's the %train." An applica-
ton Of the whip carried the wagon over
just in time to prevent a collision. The
engineer should blow his whistle when
approaching this spot.

A correspondent Of the Ward Reflex,
writing from Osceola, says: They have
been at work on the mill, and have got the
old battery torn down and started 70 place
in the new one. 1t has been SO cold for
the last two days hat but little could be
done. Most of the timbers are ready to
be hauled, and some are already at the
mill. Hendrie is in town and says he will
have lumber by the time it is needed at the
mill, so they will go right at it and repair
the mill a. soon as possible. There is but
little doing outside of a few men working
their claims.

DO you recollect what your feelings
were Immediately after you had spoken
the first unkind word to your hus-
band ? Did you not feel ashamed and
erieved, and yet too proud to admit ?
That was, is, and ever will be your
evil geniusl 1t is the temper which
labors incessantly to destroy your
peace, which cheats you with evil
delusion that your husband deserved
your anger, when he really most re-
quired your love. II is the cancer
which feeds on those unspeakable emo
tons you feel on the first pressure of
his hand and lip. Never forget the
manner in which the duties of that
calling can be fulfilled. If your hus-
band is hasty, your example Of pa
thence will chide as well as teach him.
Your violence may ALLEVIATE his heart,
and your neglect impel him to desper-
alton. Your soothing will redeem
him-your soitness subdue him; and
the good .natured twinkle of those eyes
now filling beautifully with priceless
tears, will make him your own.

A Columbus young man until quite
recently was counting fat girl at the
East End, and had progressed very
avorably with his suit. One evening
recently he dressed up in his best
clothes, carefully combed his hair, and
started out to make his tri weekly
visit to his fair one, who was waiting
in the parlor-- fond expectation in her
heart and cold in her head, super
induced by the Auctuating weather.
This was, as you might say, the pro.
logue to the tragedy. II appears.
moreover, that the fat girls lather,
who is worth many thousand dollars
in good, sensible bonds, and as a con-
sequence is an object Of the young
mans tender regard, had for several
nights previous been the victim Of
some unknown miscreant who had
raided on his hen pen with disastrous
effect. Sick of such ioolishness, he
had prepared a CHASTITY retribution for
the fowl villains, and to this end had
filed a big garden syringe with about
a gallon of ancient beef brine, sea-
soned with garlic aud favored with
assafuiida, and Was lying in ambush
behind a box, where he could sweep
every approach to the heunery. The
young man, who is pretty well &C
quainted with the whole family,
thought that he would surprise his
girl by entering the house unexpect-
eddy by the back way. This is the

George Wheeler was in love with
his wife's sister, in San Francisco, but
could discover no pretext for getting
rid of his wife. Della Tilson, the sis
ter, was made very unhappy by the
complication, for she returned his pas

his wife. At length she was found
dead in the house. She had been
choked to death by George. His cool
account of the murder was as follows
"She asked me to cut her throat.

FEMALE PURITY.-All the infu'

their right to the exercise of that ma

most indelible species OF educationi
the wholesome restraint which they
possess over the passions of mankind
their power Of protecting us when
young and cheering us when old
depend so entirely upon their person
al purity and the charm which it cast
around them, that TO insinuate a doubI

an automatic Fire g.rfingHisher
An engineer in the Brooklyn Fire
Department has invented an automat-
ic fire extinguisher, which was recent
ly tested as follows: An experiment
al shed was half filled with barrels of
shavings aud chips. Near the ROOF
was an iron pipe for the conveyance
Of water, to the end Of which was at.
tached bulb perforated with numer.
Gus holes. In the center Of the bulb
was a cartridge, held in position inside
a plug, to prevent the water from flow.
ing and on the outer side was tele-
graphic attachment. The inflamable
material being lighted, in thirty.five
seconds the fuse of the cartridge be-
came ignited, resulting in the explos-
ion of the cartridge. This released the
plug in the bulb, allowing the water
a free course, and at the same time
released the telegraphic attachment
and sounded an alarm on an instusu-
ment at a distance. The experiment
was in every way satisfactory, as the
fire was extinguished without damage

Some Galve.ton boys were impres.

Some Galveston boys were impress
ed by reading of the martyrdom Of
saints by death at the stake, and they
decided to burn a pet dog in the same
manner. The leader in the movement
had a theory that the poor brute's suf-
ferings would result in immortal joys,
and so be a good thing for it. A post
was driven into the ground, the dog
chained fast, and a roaring fire built.
The boys sang Hymns while their vic
tim was roasting to death.

ed pen. With bated breath he waits
the onslaught. The syringe sounds its
dreadful "whssp" and its deadly con-
tents fly through the air like a wild
and mad avenger. A yell that tore
the azure robe of night, fairly shocked
the fat girl of the piano stool and
curdled the old mans blood, followed
the discharge, and when the neigh
bors rushed in, under the impression
that the Garfield boom had burst right
in the neighborhood, they found the I'M
fortunate young man paving madly
around on the ground, and screaming
out awful Mexican words terrible to
hear, while the old man lowered over
the scene with a syringe in his hands,
looking like an animated figure es-
capped from an allegory. Sympathiz'
ing arms bore the young man into the
house, after their owners had stopped
their nostrils with cotton, and it re-
quired the combined efforts Of the fat
girl and eight friends to bring him to,
aud it was some hours before he was
able to inquire if the meteor hit any
body else when it struck. That night,
beneath the darksome shade of a cy,
press tree, whose thick branches the
struggling moor.beams vainly strove
to pierce, an old mans tottering form
rested upon a spade, and silently
viewed a new made grave. He had
just buried the syringe.
