The Fire at Tombstone - Extent
Losses, Insurance and Incidents.
TOMBSTONE, June 23.-Owing to the pre-
cautions taken by the Chief of Police, Fire
Department and county officials, no dis
turbance occurred during the night. The
saloons all remained closed, and there was
no drunkenness. Rebuilding has already
commenced on some lots where the build
ings were of wood. The first estimates
were not too ~large-some say $500, 900 in
stead Of $250, 900. The total insurance SO
far as known is about $50, 600. The casual
ties were very few. No loss of life. The
following are the particulars: William A.
Cuddy, clerk Of the Cosmopolitan Hotel,
was in the Tribolet building when it
caught fire. While giving assistance he in
hailed much Of the smoke and flames,
causing severe Inflammation Of the throat
and much suffering. Charles D. Reppy, OF
the Epitaph, received a scalp wound from
falling timbers. William Nash was severe
ly burned by the explosion Of some giant
powder in McKeon & Knights store. Ed
ward Shipman was burned on the face and
neck by a burst Of flames from the Palace
Saloon. Officer Magee received a cut on
the right knee, about two inches long,
while pulling down an awning. The most
serious accident Of the day occurred to
George Parsons. While doing good SER
vice as a fireman he was struck down and
buried by a mass OF burning timbers, and
but for the timely assistance of the by
ISLANDERS must have persisted. As it is, his
life is safe, though his injuries are severe.
He is much bruised generally, and so badly
wounded in the throat as to render sewing
necessary without and within.

A Q Tricycle..

The Pilot says: There passed through
Ogden on the way from California to New
York city a tricycle., which appears to be
an important invention. The entire frame
work is Of metal, and firmly constructed.
Several springs make the seats of the oc-
cupants Of this novel vehicle easy to sit
upon. The front wheel is operated SINH
lar to the large wheel Of a bicycle. and is
used for guiding the apparatus. Back of
this is an axle upon which two wheels
operate, being placed about 30 inches
apart. A seat is provided for q person d.
rectly over the axle, and treadles below
furnish means Of aiding in propelling the
vehicle. These treadles operate ratchets
and pawls, which communicate motion to
the wheels, and thus two persons are en-
bled to ride very rapidly. The front wheel
is about four feet in diameter, while the
other two are about five feet. One impor-
tant feature about this apparatus is that 1t
is not constantly in danger OF topping
over and bringing the riders to grief, and
another recommendation to its use is the
fact that persons employing this class OF
locomotion can enjoy the company OF a
friend while rushing along the highways.
The vehicle attracted much attention IN
the express car.

inhabitants. There are two 15-stamp mills
in operation at present, and n 40-stamp

which are we'll kept, and the tables are
supplied with the best the market affords.
The principal mines In the district are the
Star 4 Grove. Betty 0'Neil and the Nor

Two faro games are running, and doing Q
good business, but the boys have been
making II pretty lively for them the past

which will be completed in about q week.
There is considerable lot jumping going
on. Lots sell from $500 to 81 800 each.

An H.hau Assay,

The New York Stock Report says: A
crude assay of carbonate Of silver and
lead will often prove satisfactory to the
prospector and miner, when absolute ac-
curacy is not really desired, but merely a
rough estimate as to the value Of the min
eral, may be accomplished by pulverizing
the carbonate and putting it in a crucible
or a common clay pipe, with an equal guam
tity of the ordinary salt of commerce,
then placing it over a properly arranged
fire. After it appears to boil and bubble,
emove it 80 the mass will cool. The lead
and silver will be precipitated, the latter
beneath the former. To cause the sspara-
ton of those two metals, place the nugget
in a bone dust cup and melt it, whereupon
the lead will be absorbed, leaving the
more precions metal in the form of q but
ton. If gold should be mingled with the
silver, boiling the button in chemically
pure nitric acid will dissolve the silver,
and the same may be secured through the
evaporation of the liquid, which will cause
the precipitation Of the argentiferous sub
stance held in solution. The gold, as q
matter Of course, should be recovered be-
fore seeking for silver. As . rule, how
ever, it is better to submit ores to well
skilled professional assayers, II accurate
estimates be desired.

SAN Francisco, June ga new comet
is reported to have been discovered in two
places in the Eastern States last night. It
was seen here early this morning by Prof.
Hanks. 1t was seen at Bodie, Cal, at 4:30
this morning, when the nucleus was we'll
defined and a brilliant tail observed. At
tombstone, A. T., it was discovered at 4 A.
M, with the nucleus half the size of a full
moon. The tail was f~an-shaped and very
brilliant. All the dispatches state that the
comet was northwest by north 80 degrees,
heading northeast and just above the hori-
Zon.
inquiry among the insurance companies
and agencies shows that the loss to them
by the Tombstone fire will aggregate not
far from SlO0, 600, and possibly rather over
than under that figure.
San Diego dispatch says Of the new
Tlchborne claimant that he is well known
in that vicinity and is a pure delusion.

ably aggregate a quarter of a million dol
lars. About 800 people are homeless. The
buildings were mostly Of a cheap, tempo
rary character. The fire originated in a
saloon from the opening Of a barrel of
whisky, the fumes of which communicated
with a cigar lighter. Water was scarce,
and there were no fire engines, and but lit
tie could be lone to check the flames, ex-
cept to tear down the buildings, etc. Few
accidents occurred and hone of them very
serious. The Turn Verein Hall and thea
ter were thrown open for the accommoda-
ton OF those burned nut. The insurance
agency of Hutchinson, Mann h Smith. Of
San francisco, representing q number Of
companies, reports the loss of two hundred
thousand dollars. Other companies lose
about forty-ive thousand dollars in various
small anouts.

The Richmond Mine,

The recent annual statement OF the
Richmond Company is a most gratifying
showing to the stockholders. Compared
with the figures Of last year, there has
been III increase Of 11,1S4 tons in the
quantity OF ore smelted, of 3,4S6 tons in the
quantity OF bullion refined, Of 1851 ozs.
in the quantity Of gold produced, 173, 40l
ozs. OF silver, and 3,160 tons Of lead; and
that on the other hand the working ex-
penses Of running have been reduced
from $11 OF to 50 So per ton. and the
smelling expenses from S13 16 to S11 81
per ton, the result Of the years workings
being that the mining profit shows an in-
crease Of clos, 655 les, and the net profit
an increase OF f101, $50 los 10d. The
bullion has realized about 75A per cent
OF the Eureka standard assay value. as
against 79k per cent last year. This de-
crease is attributable to the slightly lower
price OF lead. The average assay of the
Richmond ore has been higher this year
than last-$6S II per ton, as against
500 IL last year; the average assay Of the
purchased ore has been lower-S56 20
against $50 80. The yield per ton Of ore
(Richmond and purchased together) has
been $50 % against S55 33.

The Kerosene Lamp.

The kerosene lamp has been SO promi-
nently engaged in bursting and in blowing
human beings into hospitals and eternity
that many people are under the impress
sion that it has no time in which to attend
to anything else. This is a great mistake,
and a convincing proof of its abilities in
another direction is found in a recent dis
patch announcing the death by suffocation
Of a priest who had slept in a room in
which a lamp was burning imperfectly.
How many thousand headaches are discov-
cred every morning in bed chambers that
have been brought on through the night by
kerosene lamps turned down low" will
never be known, but the aggregate is enor-
nous, and cannot be otherwise, for q small
fame in e lamp chimney does not cause
draught enough to insure perfect combus-
ton, and this being the case the slumberer
breathes carbon and carbonic acid gas as
literally as if they stood over the chimney
of a petroleum refinery. If q little light
is necessary in a bed chamber it may be
supplied by a specially prepared taper, by
candle, or by a wick floating and supported
in animal and vegetable oil but the
turned down kerosene lamp is always q
menace to health and life.

Geodetic OBSERVATIONS.

J. Davis, heliotroper Of the Government
Coast and Geodetic Corps, will depart this
morning for the north point Of the Dia-
mond Range, located northeast of Eureka
and some fifteen miles distant. Mr.. Davis
has selected the highest peak Of the Bange
upon which to locate his heliotrope, an in
strument for making signals to an OBJ
server at a distance by means Of the suns
rays thrown off from a mirror. He will
signal from there to Mount Callahan, near
Austin, for geodetic purposes. Mr.. Davis
has also kindly consented to signal to the
magnetic station, near the water tank, ON
the hill west of Eureka, promptly at 8 P.
NJ. next Monday, and every Sunday there
after for two months at the same hour.
Therefore those Of our community who
are in the dark as to the methods employed
in heliotroping can be enlightened by
climbing to the spot designated at the time
named. Mr.. Davis will be confined to the
mountains top for eight weeks, and dur
ing that time expects to make the most
thorough observations. a report Of which
he will in due time transmit to Wash
ipgton.

san Juan District.

Austin Reveille: A very considerable
amount OF work is quietly going on in
this and surrounding mining districts.
Toiyabe range Of mountains, especially. is
being looked after by the knowing ones;
those who are familiar with the country.
We learn that . very fine prospect has been
encountered in the Tiger mine, located in
San Juan Canyon, somewhere about 40
miles up Reese River from Austin, and in
the Toiyabe range. The character Of the
ore is said to be carbonate or galena.
Those who have seen the mine speak
enthusiastically Of the prospect in sight.
There is doubtless a good mineral belt in
the region Of the canyon referred to. and
we should not be at all surprised to learn
of another Lander Hill up that way before
a great while.

Carson Tribune: The G. P. R. R. and
other railroad companies, appear to be ar
irving at the conclusion that there is some
thing in this State to induce tourists to
visit, or in other words that Nevada and
its mines are not altogether OF the past.
An excursion has been arranged to leave
San Francisco ON the LIST Of July and re-
turn on or before the 18th, the tick
cts for the round trip TO be $50. The
excursion extends from San Francisco
to Reno, Carson. Virginia City, all around
Lake Tahoe, up and down the narrow
gauge road and a visit to all important
points on the route. Already. over 2oo
tickets have been sold and the chances are
that at least !. 200 will avail themselves OF
visiting scenes they have heretofore but
read or heard Of. A fine opportunity
il offered for C~alifornians to visit their
Nevada friends and acquaintance.
