In Time of Peace Prepare for War.

Ranchers in Mason Valley as soon
as the snow left, began looking for
grasshopper eggs, earnestly hoping
not to find them. Many of them
have adopted the plan, in vogue in
Sierra Valley, of feeding stock on
places where they think the eggs are
most numerous. Their idea is that
the hard crust formed on the ground
which has been we'll tramped may
prevent the young grasshoppers get
ting out after they are Matched.

Sn1w.
COMO HOTEL, 1st day Of Spring: =
That is what the almanacs say, but
| do not believe the almanac sharps
ever wintered in Como. l came up
from the ranch this afternoon, and
the "beautlful snow" is everywhere
from two to twenty feet deep, just as
you select your places. Please be-
lieve me dear ZINES, for you know l
never exagerate or set down augh:
in ''mal prepens," as the bible says.
l came through on foot. What2 (you
don't believs it) Please remember
that we had lots of "little hatchets"
where l was raised, yes, and cherry
trees, too. l will acknowledge that
l tried to ride, and did until | could
see nothing Of the horse but his ears
and had to own up that horse in
twenty feet of snow is miserable
failure, so tired him out, sent him
back and swan through, (another
solidified trath). 1t commenced
showing on Tuesday last and did not
let up until Saturday, when, not
having seen piece of calico or even
har-pin for ten days, your humble
servant dit out" for Como.
There is but little doing in the
mines this Winter. The Lorraine
tunnel which is now in 140 feet, Is
in soft rock with stringers of fine
quartz, and is being advanced two
feet per day with one shift, and will
doubtless cut the ledge in another 20
feet, when, if it is no better even
than it was one hundred feet above,
it will be worked and made to pay.
l can write no more at present as
there is fair young lass singing
something about the "beautiful SHOWS
and l cannot resist the temptation to
take her out and roll her in it beauti-
fully and esthetically, so here goes.
Full particulars next time. Pony.

and was the only road in the State
which did not miss a day. The c..

it is a pleasant reflection to those

it grows up into broad gauge.

ACCIDENT on THE C. & C.
Seven Cars Ditched-The Fireman
Slightly Injured.

Yesterday morning as the sonth-
ward bound train on the c. & c. was
passing the Woodwork mill, one of
the hind wheels on the truck of the
car next to the engine broke. The
train was under rapid Roadway at
the time, and general plling up of
cars was the result. The engineer
saw the car leave the track and
whistled for brakes, but the brakes
could not be applied in time to pre-
vent the ditching of several other
cars. The tender was torn loose
from the engine and thrown in the
ditch, and lot OF timber which was
on the flat cars IN front piled on top
of it. The fireman, Colt Thumb,
had stepped on the tank just before
the accident, and was thrown off
when the tender upset. He fell in
to the ditch under the pile of heavy
LlhDCl5 "hlCh WOlO "" AAohA thO
cars, and only escaped being crushed
to death by the fortunate circum-
stance that Two heavy timbers were
thrown out ahead and fell unoer the
tender and other timbers forming
bridge for them to rest on, and CIV
ing him about foot of space in
which to lie. He was severely bruis-
ed and received some scratches about
the head, but none of his injuries
are dangerous. There were four
fiat cars loaded with timber in front,
and they with the tender and three
box cars which followed them were
piled in heap. Jimmy Morris,
brakeman, who was on one of the
box cars, was thrown into narrow
space fortunately left for bin be-
tween the cars, and made an almost
miraculous escape without injury.
There were some Indians on the tim
bers, and the car on which they were
was turned completely over, and the
noble red men were shot into the air
and lost the greater part of their dig
nifty before they landed in the sage
brush. One of them it is said re-
ceived a broken arm, but no ofher
casualties are reported from that
quarter. One of them said. "plenty
fun huria injun, no hurta engineer"
None of the passengers were either
hurt or scared as they did not know
there had been an accident until
they got out and saw the wreck.
Another engine arrived from Haw-
thorne in the afternoon, and as soon
as the track was cleared the unin-
jured portion of tn train was taken
through.

Slight Fire.

On Wednesday fire was discover.
ed in one of the bed rooms of Aaron
Swart's house. Mrs. Swart gave the
alarm, and the prompt application of
a few bucketsful of water prevented
the destruction of the building. A
little child had been playing in the
room, and it is supposed caused the
fire by lighting some matches which
were on the beaureau.

Watch Stolen.

County Commissioner Burrier had
a gold watch taken from his house
one day last week. His suspicion
rested on a vaquero who had been
working on his ranch for short
time, and he had him arrested. The
hearing on Thursday failed to devel-
ope any evidence tending to establish
the guilt of the prisoner and he was
discharged.

There is so much snow vet on the

Sutro is losing its miners and

The Brunswick and Other Unex.
plOred LOdes.

Superintendent g. G. Thomas, in
his annual report to the Sutro Tun
mel Company, speaking of the Bruins.
wick lode, says:
"In my last annual report, l gave
my views on the subject of prospect.
ing this lode, but as I consider it one
of the best and most attractive min
ing projects in this section of Neva-
da, | cannot refrain from referring
to it again.
The lode is traceable on the sur
face over two and half miles, and
suffici explorations have been
made to prove it to be a mineral
bearing vein of magnitude.
Over 100000 have been extracted
from near the surface, and until the
difficulty of hosting water presented
itself, portions Of the lode were
worked probably, even when the
price of reducing ores was high.
During the last two years the
Monte Christie mine, which is in the
northern portion Of this lode, has
been worked by contractors, and the
ore yielded handsome profit over
the cost of extracting, transporting
and reducing 1t at the mills in Six
Mile Canyon.
Two small drifts were run several
years ago into the Brunswick lode
from the Main Tunnel, and assays
obtained from the ore ranging from
$40 to $50 per ton. These assays
should give encouragement for fur
Their explorations. II would cost but
little to determine the extent and
value of this lode. and considering
| the fine order of the Main Tunnel,
and the facilities for prospecting and
working this lode so far below the
surface at minimum cost, and the
great benefit that the discovery of
ere there would oe to this Company,
l hope this work may soon be under
taken.
l am satisfied that, with the natu-
raj advantages at our command, ores
can be reduced at the mouth of the
tunnel, or at the Carson river, for
less than So per ton"
Mr.. Thomas also urges continuing
the tunnel through Mt. Davidson,
as he says: "Explorations made du-
ring the past few years prove conclu-
sively that metallifferous veins exist
| in both the eastern and western
slopes of Mt Davidson. The Nc
Kibber tunnel, which is some dist
| auce west of the Comstock lode,
shows vein of quartz sixty feet in
width. Ore was also discovered in
the Cole Tunnel, which is still iurth.
er west.
Recently ore of excellent character
assaying as high as $500 per ton,
has been found west of the summit
This ore was taken from tunnel rs
feet below the surface, driven north
east about 800 feet into the south
western slope of the mountain. This
drift also shows porphyry, which
proves that the rock of Mt. David
son is not, as has heretofore been sup
posed, solid mass of svenite.
The Sutro Tunnel Company, under
its grant, is entitled to large por
ton of this ground, aud as all these
developments show the presence of
ore in Mt. Davidson, l think that by
extending our Main Tunnel 1000 or
1000 feet further west, there would
be strong probability of discovering
ore bodies of value"
