Some ~C0rrecfIons.

In u article headed ''Taylor District"
in yesterdays SENTINEL, some errors crept
into the figures, which became badly
mixed. The gross receipts from the Mon
itor mine from Sept. 20, 1881, to Dec. 20,
1882, during which the mill was shut
down four months on account of the
water freezing up, were S2o1 $50 26, the
net yield from which was 8 10000, instead
OF $50, 900, 81 reported. The first ex-
pense was $40, 600 for q mill, which ex-
pense will not have to be incurred again
for an indefinite period; the second i'm
portant item of expenditure was for shops,
clearinghouse, offices, ETC., S10,OOO,
which, also, will not have to be incurred
again; building the necessary roads and
dumps, which are fixed improvements,
cost 81, 900; additional final expenses in
Cured were for procuring patents and in
litigation, amounting to $4,000. This
will show about 800, 900 as the net
receipts from S150,000 gross proceeds,
exclusive OF the extraordinary expenses
named.

GAMES FOR THE SALONS,

The Uncertain Wheel Revolving for
Them III Every Hole Ia the Wall.
Although the present session Of the
State Legislature has been 80 far rather
poor pickings for the s'chance taking
fraternity Of sports, yet there is no lack Of
ingenuity displayed by them to make the
most of what there is. The Carson cor
| respondent OF the Reno Gazette tells the
story as follows:
When the Legislature draws near there
is general commotion, and such a busting,
and rubbing, and whitewashing begins as
could only occur in the magic castle after
the charm is broken. Although the present
session has been rather poorer picking
than most previous ones, yet there was
no less preparation made for its thorough
feathering. Faro games are spread wher-
ever there is a chance, and some energetic
proprietors have the tiger, wheels Of for
tune and a keno game running. The ever
youthful Stewart has his hand on the
| tigers name at the Ormsby House; Tanna-
hill and Frantzkee are at the Magnolia,
where q band of music throws out sweet
strains to charm the legislative ear and
tempt the lettering footsteps; Smart and
lS9 uoiuo 1 ShtCt tdiuihS u v Capts AfCiS D
Hole in the Wall, and Brom & Co. at
S%weeney's. In all there are half a dozen
tigers waiting for their prey. Some of
them are said to have met more than their
match already during the session. Two
meek-looking Senators vent into the Hole
in the Wall on Saturday last and walked
out with 50, 800. Another bank on the
street was broken by honorable members
of the lower house. In a more retired
way. but still quite extensively, the great
American game is carried on. In fact
every corner Of the town is full Of 1t, and
the sittirgs are p%atronized by almost every
class of citizens, The Appeal said yestor-
day: "Tt is stated that a certain State
official dropped $4,000 in a little poker
game an evening or two since" There
have been some really remarkable games
and extraordinary hands held. At one
table it has been reported that there were
four aces on one corner, four kings next
to it, four queens opposite and q flush
right by. When the hands were laid down
there was about 5000 on the table. My
informant was unable to give the names
of the players, but he suspected that the
hands were dootored by some smart dealer

AN UNFAITIIFUL SECRETARY.

ID. e. Chisholm, secretary OF the
AIbIau AbscGnds with $500.
The SENTINEL received the following
dispatch from San Francisco last night:
D. B. Chisholm, Secretary Of the Albion
Company, and a number of other mining
companies, has absconded. The Directors
to-day received a letter from him, stating
that he was a defaulter to the amount OF
$780,, and stated how he covered his
crime. An examination of the books con-
firmed his statement. False footings OF
the labor account and cash book having
been made. He had been operating in the
stock Of the company, which dropped, and
he took the money to cover margins. 1t
is supposed that he took yesterdays
Australian steamer. Chisholm bore
all excellent business and private repu-
tation. He had no bad habits, and
his version of the matter is probably cor
rect. The money seems to have been
taken last December. The report got out
that an over-issue of stock had been made,
but an examination disproves the rumor.
AT the recent annual meeting of the COM
psny a committee was appointed to exam
inc the books as a matter of routine, which
probably precipitated Chisholm's action.
Previous to his entering tho Office of the
Albion he had been the teller of the Saw
ings Union and Secretary of the California
Savings Bank. His wife and daughter
trouble, saying that they had just heard
of his disappearance. Mrs. Chisholm
holds in her own name q homestead in
Berkeley. The family residence is worth
about SO, 900, which she announces her
readiness to turn over to the company to
make good the defalcation.

The writer attempts to show the
effect of speculation upon domestic
life in New York, and we soon learn
that there is "no friendship IN
poker" The story is Of man COM
mon in this country. Uneducated,
but having amassed a large fortune
in a western town, he goes to New
York to reside. His wife, ambitious
to shine in society, lets nothing pass
that will help her to reach that posi-
ton. Still, it is not till her daughter
Is grown, who by her talent and
beauty gains for her mother en-
trance Into that coveted sphere.
The father, egotistic and conceited,
speculates on Wall street, and finally
with the help of his son speculates
to his own destruction. How this
is done we leave the readers to learn
for themselves.
