t. had heen runored for a couple OF days

the report is not credited. Inns morning

were taken from the mine in an exhausted
condition. The news spread rapidly, and the
indignation against the Richmond managers
was intense. At o'clock the miners gath-
cred at their hall and in a body marched 10
the two mines and forced suspension OF op-
erations. Afterward they proceeoeo 70
Eureka 500 strong, and first went TO tne
Richmond office. They submitted PROPOSE
ton that both mines should suspend opera,
tons. unless the two Superintendents sh ouia
agree upon some feasible plan. Mr. tSick-
ards proposition to the COMMITTEE WlOhous
showing them maps, was to locate me ana
that the Albion should go back west % lee'
from the wings in the north en- OF the ne cave,
and the Richmond would go back 81 ieet
east this ground to remain neutral neither
party to cross the same. When that was
suggested to MIR. Robinson he broushg out
his maps and illustrated at once the l9ily ol
such q suggestion, for such lines would en-
compass the entire cave and rich ore BODY

Richmond go back 20 feet from the VINE
bounds of the ST. George line. and the Albion
would 90 in the opposite direction: ms VIII
cut him off from the north END Of the cave
but would allow them access to the ore cave
as he had it heretofore The committee, see
ing what a one-sided proposition had been
made. returned to Mr. Ricksrd with Mr.;
Rohiuson's proposition. Mr.. Richard a9resq
to accept it until the matter was adludlcated
by the Courts, and the trouble between the
two companies is, therefore, for the time
ended.

EUREKA. February 19th.-Early yesterday
morning rumors were rife on the streets that
an attempt to fire the Richmond mine had
been made the previous night. Mr.. Richard
was interviewed and corroborated the report,
but furnished few particulars, being APP
narentIy too mad to talk. From other
Quarters we learn that the south Is chamber
was discovered TO be burning, and that the
fire was finally extinguished by inserting
blast and blowing down the timbers and dirt,
thus smothering the fire. The impression is

BERNHARDT.-It is now asserted that
Sarah Bernhardt is married, that her chill
dren were born in wedlock, and that she
has husband to whom she is true. This
story is evidently by some jealous rival,
who is determined to destroy Bernhardts
popularity and break her up in business.
The Sarah Bernhardt hose is the latest
style of stockings, and they possess the
easy utility of being excellent umbrella
covers as well as stockings. We are no
longer surprised at the popularity Miss
Bernhardt attained in Boston. She has
