Hypodermic Injections.

"a recent painful death caused by q
hypodermic injection Of morphia." says
the London Lancet "directs attention
afresh to the dangers OF resorting to this
most p~erilous mode Of administering
drugs designed to relieve pain. The pub
lilo should be warned against the prao-
tice Of employing remedies hypodermi.
cally. So formidable a remedy should
on no account be used except under med
ical advice, and when deemed necessary
1t ought to be given by practitioners.
We have repeatedly urged the profession
to discountenance the recourse to injec-
lions under the skin. which is becoming
general. 1t is a practice of extreme haz-
ard, and we are Of opinion that surgical
instrument makers should refuse to sell
the requisite apparatus to lay persons,
and that medical men should forbid their
use."

The Elko Independent learns that the
outlook at tho various leading mines Is
more satisfactory than could reasonably
have been anticipated, recent unexpected
developments giving positive assurance Of
lively times this season, at least. The new
discovery in the Central has been prospect
cd westward 100 feet and to the east 100
feet, disclosing at depth of 10 feet a T.
foot ledge, an average OF the ore across its
entire face giving an assay Of $3.50 to the
ton. Samples Of the high grade ore from
the lead, shown us, would assay nearer
81, 900.
The Defrees mine, which for a long time
has lain idle, has been worked to a limited
extent lately, resulting in the discovery OF
a body of very good ore, 40 tons OF which
have been extracted and is soon to be re-
duced at the mill. In the Argenta explo-
rations are reported as being very satisfac-
tory, and in the Navajo the ore develop
ments are said to exceed anything hereto
fore uncovered in that mine. The Belle
Isle and its North extension have been
making fair shipments Of bullion again
lately, and a number of other mines Of less
prominence, upon which prospecting is
going forward. will probably be heard from
favorably in due time.

Next came a glassball match for A hand
some silver cup, five shots each, as follows.

1t will be seen by the above that James
Tickle of the Union Guard was the winner
of the silver cup in the first target shoot
ing, also the cup for the glassball shoot
ing, while A. Stinson Jr. Of the Centennial
Guard carried off the prize-a silver cup
for the second target shooting. Mr.. Stin-
son is to be complimented for his good
craftsmanship, as he is yet a mere boy.
If he continues to improve he will IN a
short time be a match for any OF the crack
shots of the coast. But the boss Of the
ground on Sunday was James Tickle. Mr..
Tickle is only a novice as a marksman, but
as is seen by his scores, both at the target
and at glassballs, he has gained an envia-
Bile position. There was never a happier
man anywhere than Tickle was on sunday
walking off with a handsome silver cup IN
each hand. He was tickled to death. II

STAFFORD.
Latest Report from the Mines-En-
cOuraging News.
GERALD New, May IA, 1882.


GERALD New, May IA, 1882.
EDITOR SENTINEL: Since last Fall great
improvements have been made here and
at Cayuga, around which place the mines
Of Stafford District are located. Five SUBJ
stantial buildings have been erected, and
a ferry has been established across the
Humboldt by Mr.. Edward Clay, formerly
Of the E. & P. R. R. A substantial foot
bridge had been constructed across the
river, but the high water this Spring car
ried it away. The river continues very
high and past fording.
AT the mines Jonathan Walker and Mr..
Pratt have substantial business houses,
and in one of them a restaurant is being
run. Col. Tyson is located there, running
an assay Office and examining mines here
and in the surrounding districts. He has
one mine in bond. He thinks we'll of the
mines.
Ben. Stafford has removed his tent from
the river and is now domiciled at the
mines.
During the Winter very little work was
lone in mining or prospecting. The
mount Of work done on the various claims
stands in favor of the Zanoli. Three men
have been working all the Winter ON it
and have made a big showing. A shaft so
feet deep was sunk with ore all the way
down. On the dump they have some rs
tons of good ore. The ledge pitches strong
to the northeast. The shaft was aban-
doned and work was resumed in the tun-
mel about $50 feet from its mouth by sink
ing a Wine to tap the ledge. When this
IL done the extraction Of ore will be re-
sumed.
On the Onondaga work ia temporarily
suspended. Important developments nave
been made in this mine since last Fall.
There is plenty of ore in it and orders are
expected every day to resume work.
The Comet has a shaft down % feet, at
which depth ore assaying S16s was struck
and work stopped. 1t will start up again
soon.
On the Contention they have a shaft
down rs feet with a ledge Of good ore.
They are also running a tunnel in the
mountain some 200 feet below their pres
ent workings. When they tap the ledge
they will commence stopping out the ore
and ship it, the sacks for it being already
on the ground.
There is not a claim upon which work
has been lone that has not given the pros
pector encouragement. Everybody is
hopeful and all that is needed now to
bring Stafford District out and make its
mines productive is capital. 1t offers very
great inducements to capital, possibly
greater inducements than any other dis
trict in the State.

a property holder. His estate consisted OF
a house and lot left to him by his deceased
master. There was a trustee. OF course,

in paying for the animals food, lodging
and attendance. He was a handsome span

but associated freely with common dogs.
At his death. a few days ago, the trustee
had him buried in a costly coffin, a hearse
