EGAN.CANYON
An Old Mining Camp Coming TO
the Front.

Wednesday afternoon we pail a
visit to Egan Cation, the first in four
or five months, and were agreeably
surprised to find a great change for
the better. In our neighboring camp
all as now life and activity. About
so men are employed in the camp
over 40 in the tunnel workings, 30 in
the Jenny Lend mine and the bal
ance about the mill. They have al
ready over 900 tons of good ore on
the dumps, and r constantly in
creasing the quantity, SO that it is
pretty safe to estimate that they will
have $500 tons by the time the mill is
ready to start. At the mill a force of
men is employed taking out the tanks
and old timber. A great deal of work
is required to put the mill in running
order. A large roasting furnace will
be erected, and the tanks, formerly
used, done away with altogether.
Mr.. L. n. Huick, q competent work.
man in his line, has charge of this
part of the business. An additional
wing will be added to the mill.
Water is being brought in through a
ditch run a quarter Of a mile through
flats to the west. About s inches is
already flowing. In these flats Mr..
John a Darnell has laid ont a brick
yard for the company and is now
building a kiln which viii contain
80 900. These will be used in the
construction of the furnace and other
necessary work.
The Egan Company have done an
immense amount of dead work
enough in fact to discourage almost
any other company in the State-and
it must give their superintendent,
Judge o'Connor, great pleasure to feel
that the time is fast approaching when
his company will reap the reward of
their vast outlay and patient labor.
The mill will not probably be ready
to crush before the middle of Novem-
Der or the LIST Of December.

In the London Mining World of .ugust Ist
we lind tho following report OF Capt. Drake,
relative to the working OF the Fberhardt min:
Total distance run in tho west dlift up to
July ID, 40i feet During ths past week we
have met with Il change Of rock. Fully one
half OF the face OF the drist is spar, and tho
other part is limo rock. VERY hard and sill
cious, and of "a good character to carry ore.
l think the ground is growing more fayora
bic as We advance westward. and from tne
general Appearance Of tho rock feel eneonr-
aged. Eberhardt Drift: | have discontin-
ued the crescent south, and have placed the
men ut work on the north side of the main
drlit, directly opposite the south crosscut.
and intend to follow %northward in this break.
which l ind crosses the main drift, and which
We have followed 80 feet souths aru. Ne
have a very strong assure filled with spar,
ana pitching about s. west. The rock west of
or lying upon the spar seam is blnck lime,
hard and brittle. and formed in a0ors with a
slight Ihclinati0n to the west. The rock lying
UNDER, or east Of the spar. is of a very differ
ent character, not so hard, and not so much
stratileu. IL consists mainly OF red lime,
mixed with spar, carrying considerable iron.
Ihls seems 20 be a well-defined break rum
ming through this section of ground between
the two formations. But whether it will
prove 10 anywhere contain ore can only be
determined by further development.

FIRE MATTERS.
What Was Done at the meeting sat
urdaY Night.

- ehhC hAOCtAnK W.T.
urday Night.
An adjourned fire meeting was held at the
New Hall Saturday evening to hear the re-
port of the Committee appointed to solicit
subscriptions and inquire into the expediency
of procuring the necessary apparatus.
Though the meeting was not largely attended,
it made up in enthusiasm what it lacked in
numbers.
Nh. Foulke, Chairman Of the Committe,
reported having presented to the citizens
two schemes for the protection Of the town
from fire. One was the construction of a
2D,O00-gallon tank near tho Star mill, to be
connected with 1000 feet of 4-inch pipe lead
ing TO n fre-plug in the center Of town, and
procuring 1000 feet of hose with a A-inch
nozzle. to attach thereto. The other PROPOSE
ton was to procure a nook and ladder outfit.
To these two schemes combined Mr.. Foulke
stated that he had already secured subscriD-
tons of $1,000; for the hooks and ladders
alone s225. lie stated that his canvass of the
town was incomplete, and asked for further
time to finish the work.
Mr.. George IL. Taylor took the floor, and in
a terse and foreible manner doubted the prac-
ticabllity of nsing a thousand feet of hose
on a like number Of feet Of 4-inch pipe, with
only a l00-foot fall. lie was positive it would
not work; the friction would be so great that
the water could not be thrown any consider
able distance.
Mr.. D.. h. Collins defended the feasibility of
the plan and was confident it would work
satisfactorily.
Hon. q. IL. Grey took the opposite view.
He was not sure. however, and frankly ad-
mitted he knew nothing about the matter,
and moved the appointment Of a Committee
to ascertain, through scientific investigation,
tho probable loss Of force by friction under
these conditions.
Mr.. Taylor thought the appointment Of
such a Committee absurd. Every business
man in town Knew it would not work.
Mr.. Carey. of the Citizens Water Works.
was called upon to give his views on the sub
subject lie stated that the loss of force By
friction would be considerable, though he
was not prepared just then to give an exact
estimate, but would look into the matter and
report at a future meeting.
Mr.. Collins. as the Special Committee to
whom was referred the subject of ascertain
ing the best method Of procuring a hook and
ladder outfit, stated that he had written to
parties having such apparatus and expected
to hear from them IN a lev days. Ill asked
for further time.
Mr.. Taylor was in favor Of immediate ac-
lion. lie was afraid that while we were dis
cussing these matters onr town might burn
down and then We would have no Use for fire
apparatus. lilo moved that the hooks and
ladders be procured Immediately.
Mr.. foalkc spoke in defence Of the Com
mittee. and said they had done all they could
In tho limited time at their command. lie
had no personal ends to subserve, but was
working for the common welfare.
After desultory remarks by several speak
ers, it was agreed to give the Committee UNI
til the following Saturday evening to make
a final report, TO which time the meeting
adjourned.

We are informed that, through
some of the mysteries which en-
shroud the carrying of Uncle Sans
mails in these parts, the mails which
leave Silver Canon in the morning
and could reach here the same even
lug are laid off at S%chelbourn and do
not reach here till next day-making
their delivery II hours later than
there is any need of. This is a source
OF great annoyance TO business
men, as they frequently have orders
from Silver Caion which they could
I'LL by the outgoing stage if the mail
came through as it should. The
only remedy we see for this
state of affairs IS for our people to
use Wells Fargo and Co.'S franchise
between here and Silver Canon. II
they desire TO do this our local agent
will place a sack at their disposal free
of charge. Parties in Silver Canon
can purchase the Express Co.'S envel-
opes at the Cherry Creek office. This
is not the first time or place where
the people of Nevada have had TO
avail themselves of the express com
pany's improved facilities over Uncle
SANS mails.

The Madre.

The Reflex says: Robert Briggs,
superintendent of the Madre, informs
us that the Company has paid off all
indebtedness in Ward and that work
will be resumed in the tunnel imme-
diately, and a determined effort mace
to develop the Jew Peter and Ready
Cash mines. AL work will in future
be lone by contract. Sufficient
means have been secured to prosecute
the work for the next twelve months.
The tunnel mas already penetrated in
teresting ground.

We were shown some rich speci-
mems of silver ore from the Blue Belle
mine at Silver Canon this week.
They were rich in native silver and
would assay up in the thousands.
The mine is pronounced by experts
to be one of the best in the State, bnt
for some un~accountable reason the
bullion shipments from that district
do not justify the good reputation the
mines bear.

Lively times are upon US. Jimmy
James opened the hurdy-house, next
door to the News office. Wednesday
evening. He has imported a whole
deck OF fairy dancers, with feminine
procllvities, from Paris, and they
made their debut in our Temple of
Music Wednesday evening. From
the way the racket was kept till early
morning they must be immense.
The NEWS is most f~avorably located
to enjoy free music from that quarter.
As Col. Grandelmyer would say, our
''orthographical" position is most
centrally located.

Moving Their County seat.

The people of Esmeralda county
are agitating the moving of their

Improvement, 1t is STAYED oil for sew

right insult to our people, a commit

way has not forged the petition. Ii is
an old maxim that people who have

Perhaps, some day, our people. like

The NEWS Is not in the habit of dnnning its
patrons. But we have a great many names
on our subscription list. scattered all over the
county, to whom the paper has been sent
since il was started in May, 1850, and we think
Il about time for all such to pay at least the
first years subscription. To all such persons
we will send bills the coming week. and hope
they will promptly respond. As the paper
nay lave been sent to some who did not or
der it. and think they have not received the
full value Of the yearly subscription, if they
will please notify us of that fact by postal
card, wo will stop their papers and consider
the debt cancelled.

Another Good Man Gone.

We see by the Eureka papers that
Ernest Mau, an old-tine Hamiltonian,
but for the past two years doing bus
mess at Ruby Hill, 9 Eureka. was
married at that place last week to Miss
Matte Rundell. Ernest was a game
bird and hard to ensnare, but it seems
the fair archeress got a bead OF him
at last and raked him in. Ernest, old
chum, you have u sympathy, as
also our best wishes for as much hap
piness as ever falls to the lot married
folks. Adieu.

FAMOUS COBBLERs.

No one but shoemaker could have
thought Coleridge serious in his strange
saying that the shoemaker's bench had
produced more eminent men than any
other handicraft. The Shoe and Leather
Reporter has, however, compiled "bill
Of particulars in the shape Of list Of
famous cobblers which seem to act as an
eifectual estoppel on all jealous crafts
men. Hans Christian Andersen, who
needs no introduction, may head the list,
and Hans Sachs, of Nuremburg, who,
though he made shoes all his life, yet
made 6.00o poems, plays, farces and
rhyming fables, may be put next. Sir
Cloudesley Shovel, was a shoemaker until
he listed in the navy, and SO was Sir
Christopher Minis, another English ad-
miral. John Hewson, one Of Cromwell's
colonies, and signer eff Charles rs
death warrant; Samuel Bradburn, the
Demosthenss of Methodism," as well as
bishop; James Lackington, whose cat
alogue of publications reached the total
enormous for that time-of $1,000 vol
umes in l7S7-all these were cobblers at
first, if not at last. Continuing the En-
glish list William Clifford, whose men,
ory is preserved by complimentary
allusion in Byron's English Bards and
Scotch Reviewers" and whose body is
buried in Westminster Abbey; George
Fox, the arch Quaker; William Carey, a
missionary, famous century ago, and
who read the proofs gof the bible in
twenty. seven different Languages; Samuel
Drew. "the Locke of the nineteenth
century" whose experience as an author
led him to formulate the sad truth that
tho man who makes shoes is sure Of his
wages, but the man who makes books is
never sure of anything;" Thomas Hol-
croft, whose name is not nearly SO well
known as that of single one of his plays,
"The Road to RUM" the Bloomfield
brothers, whom Byron thus apostro-
phized:
"Ye tuneful cobb!ers still your notes prolong,
Compose OF once slipper and song;''
John Pounds, whom school children
cried at being turned away from--all
these, and lesser lights too numerous to
mention, were English shoemaksrs.
Coming to our own country, Roger Sher.
man, one Of the "signers, leads the list,
in time, but Vice President Henry Will
son in rank. Besides these were Con.
gressmen Shelley and Noah Worcester,
not the photographer, but the founder of
the Massachusetts, Peace Society. And
ex-Governors H. P. Baldwin, of Michi-
gan, and William Claain, of Massachu-
sets, if they never made shoes, at least
dealt in them largely enough to be named
here. Altogether, the list is sufficiently
imposing and convincing to justify YER
dict in favor of Coleridge's saving.
