The skating Rink.

Lumber was yesterday delivered for the
new skating rink IN Spring street. The
rink 10 to be oOfset by OF feet in the clear.
It takes 1000 feet OF lumber to inclcse ID
and 10000 yards Of canvas to cover IT..
Alec Mckay 4 Co. are the prsprietors.
They have sent to New York for 200 pairs
of Jockey Club skates. No doubt the rink
will become q f~avorite resort during the
Winter months. The only question is as
to whether we are to have a cold Winter.
Alec Mckay devotes considerable time to
pumping the Oldest looking Indians in the
n%eighborhood regarding the probabilities
OF a.seyere Winter. They all tell him that
il is to be a blizzard for four months.
This encourages him to go right along in
YES ting in lumber and canvas.

:. THE LITTLE BONANZA
A Case which Occupied Judge
Harm0n's Court Yesterday.

- C&Eo WAhACn VCCtRAg0 SMuk<
Harmon's Court Yesterday.
"Little Bonanza " is not q mine. W.
have no little bonanzas in the mines OIL
Eureka District. They are all ~whoppers
when they rise to the dignity of bonanzas
ct all. The Little Bonanza" in question
is q very smoothly-turned and comely
young lady Of the soiled dove persuasion.
Sh 10 called Little Bonanza" because she
has a sister who is known as the " Big
Bonanza" Both are bonanzas what are
bonanzas. All of the bald-headed men in
town worship at the bonanza shrine, big
or little. Mr.. VIM. Berry, a gay gam
boiler and a high roller in the profession,
was also a w%orshiper, though not Of the
bald heads. He woed the smaller deposit
Of the metailiferous sisters, ardently if
not wisely. His attentions were enthusi-
astic if not frequent. The diminutive
bonanza was supposed to be dead gone on
him. He had her heart and confidence.
1t is not certain that the gay William
reciped. Rumor says that his affections
we're lavished on another. William is
lately from Salt Lake and ia believed BY
some to have contracted Mormon habits.
Be this as it may, the small bonanza
soured on him and yesterday had him
arrested on q charge OF petty larceny. The
case was tried in Judge Harmon's Court
and attracted . good crowd. The lady
alleged that she had lost $35, all in five
dollar pieces, the product OF industrious
toll. Whether through jealousy or other
wise. she charged that her sweet William
had bagged the coin. William had been
visiting her at about the time the money
disappeared. By q singular coincidence
William was found possessed Of just seven
five-dollar pieces, which he swore he had
safely tied up in the hem Of his shirt-tail.
The boys in the crowd smiled and said that
was cautious work for asport. William con-
veyed the impression that he had resorted
to this ~precaution in self-defense. He
was afraid Of being robbed himself. The
fair prosecuting witness was in Court, re-
~splendant in sealskin cloak and jaunty hat
and feathers. Her baldheaded admirers
were also there in strong force to steal an
occasional glance or a fugitive smile. She
was graceful and winsome and sunshiny.
Judge Harmon never appeared SO capti-
waiting or bland. Anybody looking cross
at the witness would have received 80 days
in the cooler from His Honor. Constable
Wallace was all attention and zeal for the
comfort Of the injured witness. He
showed in every way that he wanted to
make things agreeable for her. The
twelve jurors, good and true, were not so
sympathetic. Not . man among them had
been able to bask in the smiles of the fair
one. They were under no obligations, and
could not afford to show bias, even if in
clined that way, which they were not.
After wrestling with the question put in
issue for a time they promptly gave Mr..
Berry an honorable acquittal. Then they
all went over to Bony Ayres' and took .
drink.

The Richmond superintendency.

So far as known no person has yet been
selected to take the place Of Mr.. Richard
as Superintendent Of the Richmond. The
general impression seems TO be that some
one will be sent out from England. In
this connection ii may be stated that John
B. MCGEE ia reported to have made appli-
cation through Manager Probert for the
position. Mr.. McGee was the old Super
intendent Of the Richmond. and handled
the immense property with great ability
and success. He is one Of the best smell
tors in America, and is altogether q first
class business and mining This
community would Welcome Mr.. MCGEE to
his old place. We doubt II the company
could do better than to reinstate him.

Rowing Against the Tide.

1t 10 oasy to guide with tho ripples
Adown the stream Of time,
10 tow with the course Of tho rvor,
Like music to some old rhyme;
But ahl 1t takes courage aud patiouoe
Against it's current to ride;
And we must have strength from heaven
When rowing against the tide.
Wo may float on tie rivers surface
While our oars scarce touch the stream,
Aud visions of early glory
On our dazzling sight may CLEAN;
We forget that on before lie
The dashing torrents roar,
And, while we are idly dreaming,
Its waters carry us Ger.
But a few-ah! would thero were many
Row up the "stream of Iife;'
They struggle against its surges,
And mind neither toll nor strife,
Though weary and faint with labor,
!. Singing triumph, they ride;
For Christ is the hero's Captai
When rowing against the tide.
Far on through the hazy distance,
Like mist Oh distant shore,
They see tho wall of city,
With it banner floating DER.
Seen through glass SO darkly
They almost mistake their way;
But faith throws light on their labor,
When darkness shuts out their day.
And shall we be one Of that number
Who mind no toll nor pain?
Shall we mourn the loss Of earthly joys
When we have Drown to gain?
Or shall wo glide on with the river,
With death at tho end of our ride,
While our brother, with heaven before him,
ls rowing against tho tide?
