that the president had concluded to
 veto the Chinese bill, and that the matter would be finally settled at a cabinet meeting this morning. Gen.
 Butler, who is a warm advocate of the bill, had long interview with the president last night, and is quoted as saying to-day that he was satisfied from the presidents remarks that the bill would be vetoed to-day or tomorrow. Members of the Pa cihc coast delegation did not think it true. The president, it is added, does not object to restricting immi. grafton, but will state to congress that the time IS excessive, and that if congress will reduce it to ten years he will sign the bill. The facts regarding the consideration of the Chinese bill at to-day's cabinet ses- slon are substantially as follows: Ow- ing to amount of time consumed in the Mason case and routine matters, there was very little opportunity for discussing the Chinese bill. The president therefore adjourned the further discussion of this subject un- til next cabinet session on Friday.

A Sierra Avalanche.

John 1. Ginn, editor of the Homer, Mono county, California, Index des. cribes the following of the Sierra avalanche on the 10th instant, the first of which is as follows:
 Turned loose from an S00-foot precipice near the top of Mount Scowden, which rises to a height of 2,5OO feet between and at the con- fuence of Lake and Mill Creek can yons, overlooking the southern sec tions of the town of Lundy. This body ot loose, dry snow, dropped about 800 feet, where it struck upon a bench of the moyntain, bounded out upon the air compressed be- meath it, sailed over the tops of the tallest pines, and came down verti- cally, l,5O0 feet from it's last point of contact with the earth. This de- molished the residences of and buried MT. and Mrs. Winters, on the north side of Chicago avenue, Mir. and Mrs. Mayes and their three little girls, and man named Antone Silver, and four Frenchmen on the south side of the avenue. The last named party consisted of Joseph Baron, Geo. Chagnon, August Dor. van and August Duval. Caron and one of the Mays girls each saw the great mass of snow descending. Caron called to his companions that snow cloud had burst above them, and the little girl rushed into the house and told her mother a cloud was falling. Stove-pipes and chim- neys were filled, without being broken, showing that the hard, packed snow descended vertically Mir. Winters was severely but not seriously injured, one of the little eills received severe cut on the cheek, and all the others escaped with slight scratches or bruises. Caron made his way out and gave the alarm, and by 5:l5 all had been rescued. The demolition of this portion of the town, considered the safest spot in the whole canyon, ere, ated the utmost consternation among the inhabitants.

From the s F. Daily Exchange.
 Postmasters and their deputies are soon to be uniformed in suits, with brass buttons and silk augillettes. Some citizens of this simple repub- lie think this new regulation will be carrying things little too far. The editor of the Tuscarora New Times Review, who is himself postmaster, says that from what he can learn the uniform "wiIl be neat but not gaudy, as the monkey remarked upon cer- tain occasion"
 From the Prescott (Arizcns) Miner, March 25.
 For many years the larger towns in the southern part of the territory have been selected for the holding of political conventions. It now strikes us as eminently fair that the conven- ton of the republican party, which will convene some time in June, should be held at the capital of the territory. We do not wish to be considered greedy in this matter, but as other sections of Arizona have been honored with political councils we ask the sane for Prescott. Let the republican press of the territory take this matter up. A convention must be held, and for the purpose ot accommodating Apache and Mohavt delegations, we think our city the most central, hence the most conven tent.

Grand Lodge Banquet [.

From the citizen,
 At the conclusion of the Masonic Grand Lodge organization, on Satur- day evening, grand banquet was rendered the visiting brethern by Tucson lodge. The affair took place in the banquet room of the new hall, and the supper was furnished by the Palace hotel, which may be taken as a guarantee for its being very fine. About sixty of the brethern were present, including the officers of the Grand Lodge. Toasts were given and responses made by many, and a most enjoyable time was experienced. Mir. M. P. Freeman, as master of cer- emonies, proposed the sentiment, "The Grand Master of Arizona," which was responded to by Grand Master A. M. Bragg.
 "Our visiting brethren" was the theme of Deputy Grand Master J. T. Alsap's remarks. To other senti- ments responses were made by Messrs. F. A. Shaw, of Phenix; Chas. A. Fisk, of Globe; J. A. Zabriskie, of Tucson; c. M. Strauss, of Tucson; ; L. c. Hughes and J. A. Whitmore, of the Tucson press; Prof. Cook, B. F. Blvins, R. NJ. Leatherwo,d, Wm. Isaac, of Phenix, and Thos. Sorin, of Tombstone. The banquet adjourned at midnight, the most harmonious feeling prevailing.

Not a Quarrel. only . ~Kiek.-

From the New York Daily stockholder
 Russell Sage walked up Broadway yesterday with "that ass," as he had styled the man the previous day wbo was advancing the market too rapid ly for his "calls." We suppose this exhibition of MT. Ssge's was to prove that the man by his side was not an ass yesterday! Y hile they walked and talked and smiled, how. ever, prices were going down! Why shouldn't Mir. Sage walk with him? His brokers were buying stocks to protect his privileges, and the little Napoleon by his side N as permitting a handsome decline that this econom- real companion might get in Cat the bottom" They say that the affair of the previous day, described in this paper and the Times, was not a "quarrel." We are inclined to be. lieve it, and accept instead the ver- sion that it was merely "kick" on MT. Sage's part. Had not prices gone down during four out of the five hours of business yesterday, however, perhaps there would have been less of public walking and . good deal more private kicking.

Native Silver in the NapdOlph

Yesterday the workmen struck native silver at a depth of 120 feet in the Ran. dolph mine adjoining the Junetta. The silver occurs in large sheets adhering to the quartz. A considerable amount was taken out during the day. This is the richest strike ever made in the district, but of it's extent it is impossible to speak at this time In the Junetta about one year ago, deposit of about 5000 pounds of exceedingly rich metallic ore was taken out some of which assayed $27,00O per ton. Samples with the grass roots adher- ing, taken from Ghe Randolph, have as saved over $1 400 It is quite possible that

TIE Virginia City Chronicle of the 25th instant takes hopeful view of the mining outlook on the Comstock. It says "the indications are favorable to the theory that the ore body found on the Union 2500 level makes to the north, and that it will be found in the Sierra Nevada. Prospecting drifts to demonstrate the truth or falsity of this theory are to be run as soon as possible"

A Tale of Love and Woe.

"Do not go, darlins"-and as she spoke the words, spoke them in low, tender tones that thrilled him from main. tuck to keelson, Gwendolen Mahafy laid her soft, white cheek on Plutarch Riordan's shoulder and gave him look with her lustrous, dove. like eyes that would make your head swim.
 "I cannot stay," he replied, kissing the peach red lips as he spoke, and feeling wisttul!y in his overcoat pocket for a plug of tobacco, "l must go row, right away"
 But the girl placed her arms around his neck-arms whose soft, rounded curves and pink-tinted skin would have made an anchorite throw up his job, and pleaded with him to stay a little longer.
 "I cannot" he again said, looking at her tenderly.
 "Cannot ?" repeated the girl, q shade of anger tinging the tone 1T which the word was uttered. "Anc pray, sir, what is that so imperatively calls you hence ?"
 Bending over her with a careless grace that artfully concealed the slight bagginess at the knees of hi pants, Plutarch said in low, bitte tones that were terrible Tn their in tensity: "I have broken my suspen l der !"--Chicsgo Tribune.
