The Eureka Sentinel has the follow
ing important items from tho mines OF
that district:
superintendent Read says the late
improvement in Albion is still main
tanned and gradually getting better.
One OF the tributers has n pitch that
will yield ten tons per day, while there
nro three other pitches hat will yield
each from two to three tons. II these
improvements continue yet a little
longer, It will not be dificult to ind
parties willing to pay the debts hang
ipg over the property. Former bears
on the nino are oil turning bulls.
From all accounts, the prospects in
