rxo Mines Thai Have Paid More
Dfyidends than all the Mines of

The Ruby Hill Mining News Of Feb. 5
published an exhaustive article on Eureka
District, from which we extract the fol-
lowing:
Although the record Of Eureka District
As a bullion producer is unequaled by any
on the Pacific Coast, excepting the Com
stock, Notwithstanding the fact that it pos
sesses two mines that alone have paid more
in dividends than all the dividend paying
mines combined, it is comparatively un-
known to the investment public, outside OF
a few capitalists, who have reaped rich
returns from their ventures
THE BALANcE SHEET.
OF the amount invested in the district
by foreign capitalists, about $500, 900 has
come from England and about $500, 900
from the Pacific Coast and other points in
the United States, making in all 81, 200,-
900. Since the opening of the district
ten years ago-S1, 744,50 in assessments
has been levied on mines listed on the San
Francisco Stock Boards, and 1871 900
paid in dividends, showing an excess Of
dividends over assessments OF S5,626, 800.
AS COMPARED WITH
Two mines OF Eureka District have
during their short existence paid more IN
dividends than all the mines OF Colorado

This shows that the Eureka Consolida-
ted and Richmond have paid S919 900 more
In dividends than all the mines Of Utah,
Arizona and Dakota combined.
As COMPARED WITH LEADvuLE.
The product Of the Leadville Mining
District from 1850, when placer mining
was discovered, to the close Of last year
aggregates S35. 1886, 129, the placers having
yielded over So, 000. 900.
The yield Of Ruby Hill alone, since the
discovery Of ore ten years ago, is over
$50, 600, 900. This has been taken from
ground 5000 feet long by 200 feet wide,
and at no greater depth than 1900 feet.
oMETHrS TO CONSIDER.
In 1871 the stock Of the Eureka Consoli-
dated Mining Company sold for 81 25 per
share, and a great deal changed hands at
less figures. Every man, however, who
invested ct that price has had a return of
S81 profit on every share Of stock held.
and yet the mine is scarcely more thar In
its infancy and has since the period named
been burdened with costly litigation.
In 1871 the Richmond mine was sold in
London for 81, 100, 900, and has already
returned 50, $50, 900 in profits. depth Of
only 900 feet has been attained, and from
the second to the seventh level 10 now

A Picture OF the Assassination.

VIM. II. Matthews, n well-known New
York artist, has been in this city since July
busily engaged on an accurate picture OF
the assassination. The picture is twelve by
twenty four inches in dimensions, and rep
resents the instant Immediately following
the second shot and before Guiteau's arm
had fallen after the firing. The drawing is
the result of weeks of careful study and
represents, with perfect accuracy, the in
terror of the depot and the shooting as ii
occurred. The figures portrayed are the
President, Secretary Blaine, Guitcau, Parke,
the ticket agent, Mrs. White and three
women who are reported to have witnessed
the tragedy. The picture Is nearly com
plcted, and will be taken to New York this
week whore il will be engraved.

SERGEANT MASON,
what His Counsel and Others Say of
His Case.

Gen. Bigelow, Sergeant Mason's counsel,
was met this morning by n CRITIC reporter,
who proceeded to intcrrogatc him rs fol-
lows
General, said the scribe, tell me what
you think will be the outcome of the Mason
caso?"
." / think Mason will como out all right"
said the General. Everybody acknowledges
that he Is % monomaniac on the subject of
the attempted assassination of the Prcsi-
dent, and is not morally responsible for the
shooting, and therefore not legally re.
sponsible."
what will be your line of dcfense?"
Fl" shall first await the action of the pros
coution before deciding what course to pur-
sue. IL is not believed that the Govern
ment can make out n case against Mason
without summoning Guitcau rs n witness,
and that, you know, would be highly inn
practicable Mt this time"
"What was your object in requesting
Gen. Hancock TO appoint officers on the
court-martial not now stationed at the
Washington Barracks2"
1.-THE charges, y said Gen. Bigclow, "arc
of such serious character that 1t would be
manifcstly improper for the commanding
general to appoint officers stationed at the
Washington Barracks, as many of them will
Dt NliItNStH tut HibSttullDl vi
defense. "
Is there any likelihood that the present
court-martal will try Mason's case? ?"
do not think that at all probable, for
the reason that the president of the court,
Capt. McCiilvray, is the one who prefers the
charges against Mason, and therefore can
not sit as Judge in the case"
From prominent army officer THE
CRITIC learned that the public sentiment of
sympathy with Sergeant Mason in his at
tempt to kill tho assassin Guiteau does not
extend to the officers of the army, who re-
gard his act with disgust and universal con-
domination. The officer said that he would
be tried on charges of conduct dcletcrious to
discipline, and in all probability second
charge of attempt to kill would be preferred
against him.
The punishment for the first would be
slight, n fine, perhaps, of ten dollars and q
brief imprisonment. The other will be
attendant with scvercr penalty, reduction
to the ranks and five years imprisonment.
The army officers, while they regard
Mason's former record very highly as q
soldier, are very indignant at his recent
conduct.
