Cicero Grimes was under arrest hero. All

The YiclOrina Mine.

From a gentleman who has lately re-
turned from Kingston, says the Austin
Democrat, we learn that a fine body OF
paying ore twelve feet in size, was struck
last week, and the prospect is considered
as excellent. The course of the water
pipes is being changed in order that the
mill may have a better supply of water.
In about a weeks time the mill will be
running 80 stamps. We also learn that
Sweeney is again hauling ore from the
mine at the rate of 20 tons daily, but it
is expected that as soon as more facilities
for hauling can be had. it will be in
creased to 10 tons a day. There are
about 40 men working for the company
at present, but as soon as the mill starts
up the number will be considerably in
creased. Kingston is yet destined to be
one of the best camps in the State.

A COMMON sCOED.
A Terma.ant Convicted and Sent to
Jail In Storey County.

Jail in Storey County.
One Mrs. Holland, who has been the
terror Of Gold Hill for years, has been
convicted as a common scold in the JUS
tees Court at that place, under the COM
mon law. The Virginia Chronicle de-
scribes the %termagant as a woman of So
years of age, of middle height, buxom and
intelligent in appearance. She is fair
complexioned, has a good forehead, rather
large blue eyes and a not unpleasing ex-
preston. The mouth, however, is a mere
straight line across the countenance, and
the wrinkles about the thin lips indicate
hard service. She had on a neat dress, q
clean linen collar, and a pink knit shawl
was drawn tidily around her shoulders.
Altogether Mrs. Holland, as she sat in
Court with a prim and injured aspect, was
rather a g~ood-looking woman. 1t vas not
until being called to the witness stand
to testify in her own behalf that she had
an opportunity to show her real nature.
Then the finished backyard orator stood
revealed.
The old English punishment for the
offenso consisted of sousing the culprit
repeatedly in cold water on a ducking
stool, but as cold water is a scarce article
at Gold Hill, and the statutes of Nevada
does not prescribe that mode of punish
ment, Mrs. Holland was sentenced to pay
a fine of $500, or go to Jail for $50 days.
She went to Jail, and Gold Hill celebrated
the event in q becoming manner.

California Girls Dyins for Fun.

Another one of those annowing sleeping
car mistakes occurred on the Union Pa
citic the other night. In the car were two
young California grirls, two Kindred old
maids and a Montana miner. When the
berths were made up at night the two old
maids had a double berth next the Mon
tana miner, and On the opposite side of the
aisle were the two California girls, dying
to have some fun. One of the old maids
retired moderately early, but the other
one kept fitting back and forth between
her berth and the ~dressing-room until
everybody got mad. Finally she went to
the dressing-room with her toothbrush,
and after s%crubbing her teeth pretty thor
oughly she came back to retire. In order
to avoid any error she had pinned a piece
of paper on the curtain Of her berth, which
piece Of paper oGe Of the California girls
had changed to the o~urtain'whieh con-
cealed the Montana miner.
When the old maid returned she had her
teeth in one hand and her brush in the
other. She put the brush inside the cur
tain and laid the teeth down near the old
miners head and began to slowly climb in,
softly humming the fragment OF an old
ong as well as any one could who hasn't
any voice and who has taken out her teeth
for the night.
The harmony awoke the miner, who
looked reproachfully at the venerable maid
and said "You must so right away from
here now, or I shall scream right out and
betray you. Please go away, or I shall tell
your sister. I will hand your teeth back
to you and you can steal back to your own
bed without being detected"
EVENT. you have no respect for your
self, consider my prospects and do not
come any nearer than you are. Consider
your age, too. A woman at your age
should be making her calling and election
sure. She should be circumspect and con-
siderate. Go back quick, before the con-
ductor comes and my life is clouded for
ever. l am unarmed and defenseless. I
have only the memory of an upright life
and a ticket to Omaha. I will give you
the ticket if you want it, but I do not want
to blast that blessed memory"
Then he damned her on the nose with a
pillow and threw her teeth out on the floor
with a crash. As she rode in the Car during
the following day with her mouth caved
in, people pointed her out to each other
and shook their heads sadly and said they
would not think it to look at her. and a
commercial traveller from Dubuque went
and slept the following night in the second
class car, where he felt that he would be
safe,

Returns to the west.

Governor Kinkead returns to the West
this morning. He received q cordial well
come from all parties In Eureka. He has
a stronger following in the Great East
than any other Gubernatorial aspirant in
the Republican party. The Eureka County
delegation is said to be solid for him.
White Pine, Lincoln, Nye, Elko and Lam
der are equally partial to him. 1t seems
entirely certain that he will be nominated
on the first ballot. His Excellency has a
happy faculty of making friends wherever
he goes. The Democrats may as well
make up their minds that he is the man
that they will have to go against. Four
years e he made a remarkable race.
Whether he can repeat is the question to
be determined in the coming election.

villa Horace On SNAKE River,

The HALEY Times sets afloat the follow
ing: at is stated by cowboys engaged on
Snake River that a band Of over 500 wild
horses, mostly Indian ponies, are running
in the Snake River bottoms without any
claimants. The Indian ponies have been
running loose in that section since the
removal of the Baunock Indians from
the Fort Hall reservation, having escaped
at that time, and since then many horses
owned by prospectors and others have
been missed, and are, no doubt with the
wild ponies. Some of the Wood River
boys propose organizing a party and strik-
ing out to capture the entire bond, which
can only be done by running it down.
This would prove a paying operation.
The law allows a liberal charge for secur-
ing lost horses while the Indian herd will
be clear profit.

The Primary Election To-day.

The Democratic primary elections
throughout the county take place to-day.
For delegates to the State Convention there
will be a determined struggle between the
Caravan and Adams men. During the
day, yesterday, negotiations were under
taken leading to a compromise and q divi-
sion of the delegation. Eureka county has
10 delegates to the State Convention.
Seven of these are allotted to the town of
Eureka, four in the upper Ward and three
in the lower, the rest being assigned to
Ruby Hill and other portions of the
ty. The Adams men proposed to compro-
mise on three delegates to each of the Cub
ernatorial candidates in the two Wards of
Eureka, leaving the seventh or odd man to
be contested for. Neither side claimed any
right to speak for the outside districts and
these were to be left to come in as they
might. The supporters of Mr.. Caravan
insisted on an equal division of the whole
delegation from the county, giving to each
candidate five delegates. Thus the nego-
~tiations failed, and the contest will go on.
The struggle promises to be a lively one,
though not necessarily bitter. The polls
will open at l o'clock and remain open
until Z. AS the delegates to the County
Convention will be chosen at the same
time, a great number and variety Of tickets
have been printed and will be in the field.
May the best men win.
