feet west of the Forman shaft l.

South Lateral Repairs-The repair

ThankSgiYings Day.

Although the majority of the people
feel as though there is not much to
be thankful for except perhaps that
times are no worse. Thanksgiving
Day was duly aud properly observed.
The regulation turkey and cranberry
sauce was the prominent feature on
all dinner tables and good sppetites
owing partly to the bracing weather
and partly to relief from the cares of
business. All except absolutely ne
cessary business was suspended and
a day of quiet enjoyment was passed.

Waiting at the Grave.

The Carson Tribune says waiting
for dead mems shoes is mean bust
ness at any time, still it is reported
that a certain half and half attorney
is looking with anxious eyes to the
appointment of U. S. District Judge,
vice Hillyer. If so, and reported
rightly, no surprise need be felt as
to the action of the fellow, but as to
his efforts in stepping into the shoes
of other and better men his success
has been proven a failure so far. 1t
is doubtful that fattery will prevail
with an astute and observing U. s.
Judge in securing assistance, But
Judge Hillyer is not dead yet.
If the Tribune man is not careful
he will make enemies for himself
among the lawyers, several, if not q
great many.

4 Small Runaway.

On Wednesday, while j. D. Swart
was breaking a horse to work IN
shafts, the animal became frightened
and ran over the tailings pile north
of the Acid Chamber. Swart was
thrown from the sulky, but received
no injuries, and the rest of the pro-
cession kept on until the lower tall
ings reservoir was reached, where it
was stopped by some workmen. The
sulkey was pretty badly broken, but
not beyond repair.

An Expected Celestial Visitor.

The San Frsnciso Bulletin says
that one of the clergymen of that
city-Rev. Robert McKeuzle-refer-
red to discourse on "Science and
Religion" to the expected appear
anee of a notable celestial visitor.
This is star which is sometimes
called the Star of Bethlehem, and
which, according to some astrinomi-
cal calculations, is now due, and may
at any time blaze forth in all its bril-
liancy and celestial glory This
star was last seen in 1879. 1t shone
out suddenly where no star was visi-
BILE before, aud was so bright that it
could be seen at MONDAY. 1t grad
ually faded, assuming various hues
as it did so, until it disappeared.
This wonderful star is believed to
have been seen in the years 1864 and
942. Its apparent period if extend
ed backward indicates an appear
ance of this star about the time of
the birth of Christ; hence its name,
Star of Bethlehem. If you wish
to know where to watch for it, look
some forty degrees to the southwest
of Jupiter, and you will see a group
of stars arranged thus:

A New Version,

A little girl, scholar in the Day
ton Sunday School, tells her mother
every Sunday what she has learned.
This is her version OF a we'll known
scriptural anecdote:
"There was two little shepherd
boys; one was named Cain and one
was named Abel. SO Cain went and
struck Abel so he got killed. Then
God asked Cain, where is his broth
err and he said, Il don't know
Then God made a mark on his face,

Insane Necrosis.

DR.. Hamilton says that Insane
Neurosis may manifest itself in va
rous ways. One person afflicted
may have tendency to commit muir
der, another TO steal. Suicides are
common results Of the disease. Hal
fluctuations aud habits of all kinds
may be traced back to Insane Neu-
rosis as the primal cause. Guiteau
belongs to the legion of Neuroses
who think they have vocation for
preaching. Some think theT calling
is 20 predict the end of tfn, World;
Others are addicted to intoxication,
and still others to teaching school.
This curious phase Of human imper-
lection which has comparatively
new place among the recognized aid
investigated ills of mankind, does
not always display itself in disa-
greeable manner, From the close con-
nection between the bodily and men.
ia, functions, it frequently gives di-
recton to the desires and beliefs,
antipathies and disbelIefs, but very
often the direction given leads to
pleasant pursuits. There is no high
medical authority for even the sup
position but it is possible that the
mania for skating which has prevail
ed here during the past week, and
which prevails similarly in all civil
lied communities where the ice is
thick, wide and smooth, may be at
tributed in part to the doctors great

cold, matter of fact reason tells them
that they have sore ankles, wet knees
or painful occipital contusionsf This
is one of the pleasant directions CIV
en- to the mind by an affected stom-
ach, provided the supposition is cor
rect; and to still further show that
there are grounds for the hypothesis,
do not nine-tenths of the skaters
labor under the happy delusion that
their skates are dull, when it is really
their weak ankles and want of prao-
tice which cause the frequent morti
flying disagreements between their
feet as to the proper course to pur'

Nature, Away intent upon strictly
carrying out the law of comPensa-
ton, provides cheerful hallucination
as counterbalance to ma
terial ills. Observe, for instance,
a girl, who while skating suddenly
sits down, not to rest herself, but
owing to circumstances beyond her
control; instead of angry expressions
of discomfort, she almost invariably
and with great complacency lays
claim to whole planetary system.
Her expression, 80, my stars" is ev-
idence of an hallucination that she

is owner, in fee simple, of innumera-
BILE brilliant consultations, which
she at that precise moment sees with
her mental vision, and the happy
contemplation of which withdraws
her mind from the limited circle OF
physical suffering. This is an inho-
cent and laudable alteration, and as
such it is highly probable that it is
owing 10 the gratifying trend OF
thought which sometimes receives
impulse from Insane Neurosis.

Home Productions.

Mr.. Jno. p. Meder, the Carson, or
more properly the Nevada musical
composer, has just completed beau
tiful new waltz which will be pub
lished in San Francisco next month.
Mr.. Meder is an artist of more than
ordinary merit, and although the
little town of Carson claims him, he
rightfully belongs 10 the whole State.
Some of his productions have been
received more than favorably in the
highest musical circles. Nevada has
a Just pride in an artist Of his merit
for while our strong point is the
production of filthy lucre for the
rest of the world, We can show,
through him and few other artists,
that our highways and by-ways are
not all commercial, but that some of
the paths through the sagebrush lead
to the higher walks of art.

Mountain Chief Mine.

The Bishop Creek Times of Nov.
10Th contains the following in regard
to the Mountain Chief Mine: "This
mine is situate on the boundary line
dividing Inyo from Mono county,
in what Ii known us Piute District,
about 12 miles distant from Bishop
Creek, and is owned by Pete Rous
sell, Jacob Davenport, and A. Brooks.
They have sunk perpendicular shaft
to depth of 80 feet, but owing to
foul air it has been abandoned for
the present. The ledge in the bot
tom is between three and fodr feet
wide. They are at present sinking
an incline, which has attained
depth of 60 feet, and the ledge at
that point is nearly . feet wide, as
saying from $50 to 500 dollars in
gold. About nile from the mine
on Coldwater creek, they have an
arrastra which is continually running
and milling 800 pounds of ore per
day, Ii is the intention of the own
ers to put up two-stamp mill short
ly, when they will be able to crush
about three tons evey twenty four
hours. This is very promising
mine, and bids fair to reap large
harvest for the owners.

An Office Established.

Wells, Fargo & Co. have establish
ed an office at Sweetwater, twenty
five miles from Aurora on the Carson

made such a step necessary, and it is
probable the new Office will do a
business to fully recompense the
company.

Como.

Nearly all work in Como has been
suspended for the winter. The snow
is not more than six inches deep, and
the roads are still open. Ii. w. Ely
is vigorously pushing work on the
Tunnel claim, and expects TO have
the tunnel into the ledge before
spring. The last work done on the
North Rapidan Mine was the sinking
Of Wine from the 210 foot level.
This winze was discontinued at the
depht of 90 feet, but it showed a
widening of the ledge. The ledge
at this depth is porous quartz car
ryiug black sulphurets. Assays
taken from it go from $11.3 to $13,
this being the general average of the
ledge, and as it is growing wider
with depth and improving in value,
the owners feel confident that they
have one of the best mines in the
country. The company is making
arrangements to 60 to work system
atically in the spring, and make a
showing which will attract capital.
With but little improvement it would
pay to mill, and even as it is, with a
concentrator the rock could be
