Row in Chinatown.

Chinatown was thrown into a con
fused state of affairs on last NJ onday
evening by the failure of two pig
tailed celestials to agree as to who
should keep certain Acknowledged
female company that evening, 1t
seems that heather by the name OF
"Quong' had made arrangements to
spend the evening with this frail te-
male of the monaghan race, and had
started in by getting pretty full OF
China "blandy." He had also induced
her ladyship to imbibe rather freely,
and they were both in hilarious
state of intoxicBtion when a third
party, by the name of "Too soun,"
appeared and claimed the woman
as his wife, and tried TO induce her
to go with him. This so enraged

The Hamilton Process.

The Silver State says it has leaked
out that the Hamilton process, about
which 50 much has been said, and
which was expected to revolutionize
the amalgamauon of gold and silver
ores, has been tried in New York
and did not accomplish what was
expected OF it. 1t was claimed that
ores could be reduced oy it at one
dollar per ton, but the experiment is
said to prove that 1t could not reduce
ores at any price. Improvements
have been suggested by the trial,
which, when made, may result in the
successful treatment of ores.

Farewell.

1t has passed, we have said our last farewell;
My anguish is nothing to thee now
OF changeless love need net tell,
For where is thy faith and thy once pledged
vow?
But thine was q mans love, thy vow vast for
gotten
While the parting kiss on our lips was still
warm,
But q woman's love, not SO easily broken,
Will still live on, through sunshine and
storm.
Now when time and care shall dim those eyes
Hove,
! And one by one the sweet ties be broken,
Then let tn ESQ poor lines to thee prove,
That love can live when q heart is broken
For they speak of changeless love for thee;
OF love too deep for words to tell;
But happiness and thy love were not for me,
And must say farewell, farewell.

Cause and Effect.

The main cause of nervousness is
indigestion, and that is caused by
weakness of the stomach. No one
can have sound nerves and good
health without using Hop Bitters to
strengthen the stomach, purity the
blood and keep the liver and kidneys
active, to carry off all the poisonous
and waste matter of the system. See

Santa Fe District.

A correspondent writing from the
Santa Fe District says that Esmer-
aida county has been brought into
prominence by the advance of the q.
& c. r. R., which is now within five
miles of the mines, Soda Springs
being the distributing point. The
miners of this district are all glad to
see the new road into the country,
as heretofore the expense of shipping
ore has been so great that the district
has laid dormant. The railroad now
charges but So per ton for bringing
ore to Dayton, whereas it used to cost
$50 by the old, slow and tedious
method, thus making saving of $50
per ton.
The Sunrise Mine has been devel-
oped to a depth of so feet, with
drift of forty feet on the ledge, which
is Az feet in width. The ore assays
$3.50 per ton, choice samples going
into the thousands.
The Plumb Bridge, a continuation
of the Sunrise, is also promising
mine.
The Tip-Top, located and owned
by Thomas Bradley, is developed to
a depth of $50 feet, more solid work
having been done in this mine than
any other in the district. The ledge
is well defined, having al average
width of 6 feet, al! pay ore, that has
milled $119 per ton.
Ia the Esmeralda mine, adjoining
the Tip.Fop on the south, they are AZ,
work 1Slking an incline on the ledge,
which is three to four feet wide. As-
says 60 from s240 to 5000.
In the Farington mine drift has
been run on the ledge 25 feet. The
ore body is six feet wide, all in good
milling ore, working as high as $50
in silver and 35 per cent in copper.
1t is owned by Messrs. Bradley and
Smith.
Nine tons of ore from the Com
stock niue were shipped to the l..
NJ. & NJ. Co. in Dayton, from which
assays were obtained that went from
1853 to $192 per ton. The ledge
will average feet in width, With s.
pay streak from IS to "a inches. The
present depth of the shaft Is but so
feet. An open cut has been run
along ne ledge distance of 200 it..
on the surface, and contract has
been let to sink the shaft 80 feet
further, making depth of 100 feet.
Henry Williams, of Sweetwater, and
j. T. Bradley are the owners.
The Rumford mine has a shaft
sunk so feet, and tunnel run 275
feet. The ledge is % feet with pay
streak of IA feet of silver ore assay
ing $45, and a 4 foot ledge of copper
ore assaying 40 per cent.
The Belleville mine is quite well
developed. Some samples of ore
worked at the Lyon Mill showed
some good ore; one lot assaylng $104
and another $151.62.

Begged thee with q fond affection
To remain while with me-
Babe thee to forget thy strivings,
In a love that should be ours.
Wilt thou ever cease thy toiling,
And try to cheer the lonesome hours!

Kiss me, darling, oh, come nearer
Save me from this living death;
Come back to me be my loved one,

Fame may wreathe thy aching temples,
Please thee with its hollow breath,
But tbs love al one can soothe thee
In the chillsxihours of death. r.

The sun crossed the line at o'clock yes
 terday morning, and the astronomical spring
 began. The days and nights are now every
 where equal and while the north pole is just
 coming into light the south pole is sinking
 into the long antarctic night At the equator
 the sun is exactly overhead at noon. Some persons find it difficult to understand the as tronomical division of the seasons, which IS nevertheless more accurate than the ordinary division. Astronomically the seasons be- gin when the sun crosses the equator in the spring and fall, and when he reaches the two points of greatest divergence from the equator in summer and winter. These points fall some twenty days later in each case than | the dates fixed in the almanacs for the begin ming of the seasons In reality the year has | only two primary divisions, which are deter l mined by the position of the sun north or ! south of the equator. Spring and autumn are merely transitional periods marking the gradual change from cold to warm and from warm to cold.
 The equinoctial storms, which occur twice l a year, about the time when the sun crosses the equator, have immemorially occupied ar | important place in popular weather lore | The farmers look for them regularly, anc | farm work is sometimes seriously disarrangeo | by tardy ''equinoctial.'' This time the SUI makes stormy crossing, and under such cir | cumstances it is said that period of goot weather is generally in prospect.

Bramford.

Fanny Bradley, wife of Chas. F. Bradley, died early Saturday morning of diphtheria. Her husband is now sick and seriously. Tho only son died three weeks ago Sunday, and as the body was about to be removed for in- terment, the mother bent over the corpse and said: Darling, I'll be with you soon, " and now her prophecy is fulfilled. She was highly esteemed, is universally regretted and will long be remembered by the entire con- munity.
 There are great number of persons sick in town at present. Mrs. Charles is danger ously i'll at her house on South Main street. Miss Julia Leahy, young girl of Ivy street, is confined with diphtheria.
 With feeling of sadness do we record the death of Mrs. Martin Burke, who died at her home on Main street, Friday morning, after giving birth to child the preceding night. The death was entirely unexpected. The husband left home to attend to his regular duties, when he was called, and coming home found his wife dead. The two were married about year ago and lived peacefully. The deceased was about 23 years of age. She was lady of rare merit, highly respected, and the relatives have the sympathy of the com munity in their bereavement March IS.

None of these men averaged more than nine hours work per day had they worked long CT their earnings would have been more. Men not accustomed to the use of the saw and axe will come and work six or seven hours, and earn from B to 40 cents. The Board wish emphatically to set forth that all that is obtained from the sale of the cut wood, after cost of production is paid, is giv- en to the workman, the amount so paid dur ing the past year being 1885, the society making no profits.
 Homeless Men-A lodging room to fur nish shelter and food to these persons is in full operation, with work always on hand, so that no hesitation need be felt in refusing them aid, either at the door or in the street. All cases that are sent to the office receive prompt attention and are at once investiga- ted.
 Many persons present themselves with cards from citizens asking to have the case investigated, when it is discovered by our agent that there is no such person and fre- quently no house in the locality designated Children go around with pitiful stories, which upon investigation prove to be abso- lute falsehoods. Instructions are now given to the agent, after warning such persons, to publish their cases, in the hope of, to some extent at least, breaking up this kind of va grancy. It is for reasons such as these that we ask our citizens to withhold giving at the door and send all cases to our office for in quiry. and if deserving have their names placed upon our record. The funds to carry on this work of charity are obtained exclu- siye1y from voluntary contributions, many of our patrons contributing at the rate of one dollar per month. It is very desirable to have the list of this class of contributors increased.

Board of AssocIated Charities.

For the purpose of giving the general pub lie better understanding of the object con- templated by the Board of Associated Chari- ties, resolution was adopted at the last meeting instructing the secretary to prepar e a statement setting forth said object, togeth- CT with some account of what has already been accomplished. The association has been in existence about two and half years, is composed of members of the various char ity organizations of the city, nearly all of which are represented. Its object is the pro- motion of whatever tends to permanent improvement in the condition of the poor ; it iendeavors to reduce vagrancy and pauperism and ascertain their true causes; to prevent indiscriminate and duplicate giving; to se- cure the community from imposture to see that ali deserving cases of destitution are properly relieved; to make employment the basis of relief so far possible; to elevate the people in their home life; endeavoring to bring about cooperation among all char itable agencies to prevent imposture by a system of registration of dependent ia miles | or persons. Thorough investigation of all | cases is made, and the precise help needed l obtained from existing charities; the society | giving relief only when immediate aid is needed, or all other sources fall. reg1stra- ton book for the purpose of tabulating re- lief cases is kept, and it is very desirable that
 all who are engaged in dispensing charity will
 unite with us in perfecting this registration.
 If the charity lists of the Town Agents of
 flee could be included in this registration
 much good well as pecuniary advan
 tage might result to this community
 mend it to all, as any persor
 solicited for relief can call or send to the
 Central office, AZ Court street, and at once get all the information known respecting the
 applicant The society gives employment tC all able-bodied men whose cases are after in
 vestigation deemed worthy of help, and upo1
 assurance that no work can be obtained else | where Many false statements having beer
