Started Up.

The Geddes & Bertrand teaching mill
started up again yesterday, the spring
being cleaned out so as to increase the
supply Of water sufficiently for present
purposes. The pipes are too small, and
will be replaced by larger ones in a
short time-when a new engine arrives
to be substituted for the little engine
which runs the roasting furnaces. This
engine does the work required, but 10
too small and strains under the pressure
to which 1t has to be subjected. When
the new engine comes, this one will be
taken out, to give place to IL, and, at
the same time, the pipes will be changed,
and whatever other changes or adjust
ments OF the machinery made that may
be deemed best to facilitate operations.
In the meantime the works will be op-
Grated under the disadvantages named.
The engine now in use could do the
work required, but II 10 thought that 1t
will be cheaper to get . new engine that
will work easily and not, as the other. be
liable every now and then to get out OF
repair. As to the teaching process, we
are able to state, that there is no ap-
prehension whatever of its failure. Some
tailings from the mill, assayed yesterday,
showed only Fifty cents; so that the per
cent of gold and silver saved must be
very high. Until the new engine arrives
the mill will run along as at present.

got his fore feet over the tongue, causing
both horses to fall. They were immedi-

their efforts to gain a footing they only en-
tangled themselves the more, resulting i n
the drowning OF both horses. The occu-

Pistol Practice.

Martin Mccormick and VIM. D. Peters
got into a row Wednesday morning last,
says the Ward Reflex, over a disputed
spot in a game Of poker, which resulted
in Mccormick being shot through the left
hand and slightly wounded across the
right breast. Who was right or wrong in
the matter it is difficult to tell-pumping
the witnesses was like pumping q dry
we'll. Peters was arrested by Deputy Sher-
N Hamilton and brought before Louis A.
hauok, j. p, who proposed to hold him
in the sum of 81, 900 to appear before the
next Grand Jury. A bond was in course
OF preparation, and, the Justice thinking
there was no danger of the prisoner walking
Off, informed the Deputy Sheriff that he
would be responsible for his appearance,
Whereupon the officer permitted him to go
wheresoever he listeth. When the bond
was ready the prisoner was not to b.
found. AS a matter of course it was not
signed, and the whereabouts Of the fugi-
tive are not known even unto this day.

report recently published. have $50, 0O0,-
900 in sight in each property, or a grand
aggregate of S144, 900, 600.
It is a remarkable coincidence that each
property should be equally valuable to
commence with, but no more than just,
considering the equal capitalization and
the fact that the working capital stock OF
