Como.

More than twenty years have
elapsed since the organization Of the
Palmyra Mining District, and dur
ing that time not a solitary mine
has been prospected to depth of
three hundred feet. Itseems strange
that with the facilities for reducing
the ores Of Palmyra District, no
more has been done to develop the
hundreds of lodges discovered there.
Attempts have been made at differ
ent times to work the ores Of three
or four mines, but owing to
bad management and the want of
necessary capital these attempts have
not been successful.
There is plenty of good ore at Co.
m o, and it should be worked. Cap
ital is necessary, however, to devel-
the mines, and unless it can be OBJ
tanned the working of the ore will
be limited.
An effort should be made by those
interested to induce capital to invest
there, develop one mine and our pros
perity is assured. We believe that
in the rear ruture Como will be one
of the liveliest mining towns in the
State.

A Mason Valley IdyI.

the abiding place of the high flyers.
Last week a game of draw was
progressing quietly, only interrupted
by an occasional story, told by one
of the players, the moral of which
was pointed by some incident of the
game.
At one time the story teller held
a good pair, and the player on his
right made an apparent bluff. "Raise
him, Jim, raise him; he won't call
you, said friend sitting behind
him. The raise was made; dis :
appointed call was the result, and
the fact developed that the opposing
hand held three skies.
Numerous remarks to the import
of "the hi he won't" were made
and the loser was reminded Of an
occurrence of long ago on the Maui
NEE River, which he related to this
effect:
"A colored revival meeting was
being held in a log school house.
The weather was cold and the stove
was kept red hot. The religious en-
tLusiasm had reached the point of
turbulence when some over-wrought
convert in his wrestis with original
sin kicked one of the stove legs loose,
and the stove falling over, there was
imminent danger of disastrous fire
OF course the CONSERVATION was
great, and the excited and frighten nc d
darkies crowded toward the door
without offering an effort to save
the building. The leader of the
meeting saw that something must be
done, and shouted to young broth
er near the stove: Lift it up, broth :
er Jones, lift it up; take hold Of it;
have faith; the Lord won't let it burn
you The preacher was magnetic
man, like Bob Iugersoll, and the
darkey had faith. Selling the stove,
he hoisted it to an upright position,
and then letting go began splitting
and blowing on his fingers, at The
same time remarking che HI he
won't"
"And fellows" continued the mar
rator, that's the way | was with my
hand just now. | had too much
faith and burnt my fingers"
The game went on for short
time quietly as before, until noted
local sport standing near the table
reached his hand over the pot and
was accused by one of the players of
having taken twenty. This raised
a row, during which the player was
beaten over the head by pistol in
the hands Of the accused party, and
several others received sundfy
scratches, bruises and cuts in return
for chipping in. The story.tcIler,
ia the meantime, having secured his
money in his pocket. went in to que!l
the disturbance, aud said let me
hold him, you wouldn't strike me,
would your"
The hi l WON'T" said the angry
sport, and, planting blow on the
bridge OF his nose, gave him pair
of eyes that resemble two patches OF
burnt sagebrush on sand plat.
The man of "reminiscences fell back
and plaintively observed: II wish l
hadn't told my Niger story till
now"
