THE NORTH END.
Sierra Nevada Encouragement---
Prospecting and Development
Work Being Resumed in
the Various Mines.

With the increasing good prospects for val
liable ore development IN the Sierra Nevada
and other principal mines at the north end of
the Comstock, a fresh degree of stimulus is
being infused into all the mining interests
Immediately adjoining. In the Golden Gate,
formerly the old Vermont Consolidated, work
is about being resumed, The company having
made arrangements for working through the
Sutro Tunnel. Their ground lies Immediately
east OF the Ophir and Mexican aud adjoins
the Sierra Nevada. 1t is covered by United
States patent, and being directly in the midst
OF the bonanza group, good expectations are
very reasonably indulged in. The north
branch of the Sutro Tunnel runs directly
through The Golden Gate ground, 1,GO0 feet
below the surface, allowing a fine chance for
developing the mine deep and cheap. Ar
rangements are also being made to work again
in The Solid Silver. which adjoins the Sierra
Nevada mine on the west. The Sierra Nevada
Company tried hard to survey the ground into
their claim, and brought suit for possession of
1t, but failed, and their patent, just received,
does not take in any of the Solid Silver loca-
ton. If the present good prospects continue
and improve, other mining companies than
those mentioned in that section will also be
encouraged to resume work.-Gold Hill Neys,

worth as much as a rich silver mine, as the
supply is inexhaustiblc. Old prospectors
have known of the existence of this marble
mountain for years, but as they are looking
for silver mines they did not consider it Of
sufficient value to bother with it.-4Silver

Saturday evening about s o'clock there was
a sudden commotion on upper Main street,
and the alarm of fire sounded. Before the
bells were rung the firemen ind engine were
on the scene. and in less than ten minutes
succeeded in ~extinguishing the flames. The
fire occurred in Luce & Ma-cum's saloon. II
seems some twenty-four oil lamps were on a
table and in lighting them one exploded, ig-
hitting the entire group. The injury done was
slight, the billiard tables and furniture re-
ceiving damage from fire and water. Fhe
quickness of the firemen to reach the scene
was remarkable, and they certainly deserve
praise from the community.-Herald.

The Female lJihilists.

The heroines of Nililisn, according to the
Ftgar0, are mostly daughters of poor army
officers, or petty civil officers, or even of
shopkeepeis, who, feeling the Influence of
modern times, are anxious to rise above the
level OF their parents-coarse, ignorant PEG
pie i'll the main. Either by their own talents
or by the aid of influential patrons, the girls
gain scholarships and enter some high school,
where their brains are crammed with a hete-
rogenons mass of knowledge. At 10 they
leave, and in their turn become teachers.
Finding their parents un~companionable, they
abandon home for some wretched lodging,
where they exc out a miserable existence by
giving poorly paid lessons. Food is scarce !;
the feminine pleasure of dress is impossible !;
the restraining power of family affection IS
absent they grow hopeless and discontent-
ed, wren some day they form Socialist ac-
quaintances, rapidly adopt their ideas, and
having found an object for their life, with
feminine rashness devote themselves to the
cause, even to the very death.

Strength Of Character.

Strength of character consists of two things
power of will aud power of self-restraint.
1t requires two things, therefore, to its exist
ence-strong feelings and strong command
over them. Now it is here we make a great
mistake-we mistake strong feelings for
strong character. A man who bears all be-
fore him, before whose frown domestics trem-
Bile and whose bursts of fury make the chill
dren Of the household quake because he has
his will obeyed and his OWL way in all things
we call him a strong man it is his pas
sions that are strong; he, mastered by them,
is weak. You must measure the strength of
a man by the power of those which subdue
him. And hence composure is very often
the highest result of strength. Did we ever
see a man receive a fragrant insult and only
grow a little pale and quietly reply? That
is a man spiritually strong. Or did we ever
see a man in anguish stand as if carved out of
solid rock, mastering himself? Or one bear
ing a hopeless daily trial remain silent, and
never tell the world what cankered his home
peace? That is strength. He who with
strong passions remains chaste he who.
keenly sensitive, and manly powers of indig-
nation in him, can be provoked and yet re-
strain himself and forgive-these are the
strong men, the spiritual heroes.
