Magnetism. the New Source of
Health.

DR.. Edwin Robbins, the celebrated
Australian Electric and Magnetic Healer,
respectfully informs the public that he
has opened an office in the city of Los
Angeles. DIR. Robbins discards the use
of surgery, drugs minerals and all other
medicines in his treatment and relies
solely on the powers of magnetism. An
experience of several years in the Aus
tralian colonies, San Francisco, Salt
Lake City and Denver, in which places
he has treated successfully thousands of
persons, enables him to assert with con-
fidence that he can cure diseases which
have detied the application of medical
science. Magnetism is the life principle
within us. The air we breath ischarged
with it. Its the vital force emanating
from all persons and that which con-
meets the soul with the body. In sup
port of this theory he cures acute pains
instantly, local pains in few days, and
builds up the most shattered constitu-
tions in short time. DR.. Robbins, who
has a worldwide reputation for his ex-
traordinary cures of difficult and com
plicated diseases, possesses a power to
relieve and cure allklnds of disease. DR..
Robbins diagnoses diseases free of charge
without explanation from the patient.

The site Of the late Opera House and
the remains OF the buildings at the corner
of B and Union streets, says the Enter
prise, present q very dreary appearance.
The site Of the theater is covered with q
mass of charred and blackened timbers
tumbled about in all directions, among
which are to be seen bent and twisted iron
rods, gas and water pipes, with other iron
work. Crowds we're about the ruins all
day yesterday. Many parties OF ladies Wis
tied the scene. and all seemed greatly to
regret the destruction OF q place in which
they had passed many pleasant evenings.
The walls of the brick buildings on the
corner Of B and Union streets are all right,
and the wood work Of their fronts is still
intact. Piper's saloon N the corner can
be repaired, though the rear is pretty badly
used up, and the story above was nearly
all burned off.

Albion.

No news from San Francisco yet and
everybody on tip-toe. The belief prevails
that there will be a settlement. Why
Because it seems that there is nothing left
for Prescott, Scott & Go. and Selby & Co.
to do but settle. Their debt is S14O, 900.
The only way for them to get back any
thing is to unite the property. They had
better take off the strings and carry $780,
900 with a prospect than sink $14O, 900
hopelessly. We believe they will pay off
u Eureka creditors in order to make
elbow room for themselves. The entire
debt Of the Albion Company in round
numbers is $500, 900. They have personal
property worth probably $50, 900, and an
assessment of $75, 900 coming in, making
hosting works, two brand-new furnaces,
and all the buildings about the place
also, new and complete. Place the came,
at a low estimate, at $65, 900. This will
make a total available property Of $780,
900; that is, available for SO much if the
mine is worth the working. Deduct this
5000, 900 from the debt, $500, 900. and the
mine ought to stand in excellent pros
pect for the balance, 500 900. We're
the mine free of incumbrance, could
it be sold, with its present prospect,
for this amount? There is hardly any
body that doubts it. Everybody believes
the Albion to be a good mine, a mine of
first-rate prospects and of splendid posi-
bilities. The kernel of the proposition
for the San Francisco creditors to get at.
it seems to US, is simply this, whether
they will assume the necessary risk and
u~nfetter the mine, and in the speculation
whether it will not in a reasonable time
pay off its net indebtedness of about say
$10O, 1000? We believe that they will
answe this business question in the az
irmative, and act accordingly.

Shooting in Truckee.

A Reno Gazette reporter was infor med
Wednesday morning that a fatal shooting
ARRAY occurred at Truckee night before
last about IL O'Clock between two gamblers
named George Hurst and Charles White.
They were playing cards in Hurd's saloon
and got into a dispute over the money in
the pot. The alteration waxed hot, until
they drew their pistols and beat each other
over the head across the table. firing Of
this, White At last shot his opponent
through the right arm. The latter re-
turned the fire and White fell dead. There
ia said to be considerable excitement over
the occurrence. which Is related according
to the statement made to the reporter by q
person who claimed to have been an eye
witness Of the affair.

AERIAL

Possible Revolution OF Prevailing
Theories.
Professor LOOMS, who, 1t is said, has
been furnished money for the purpose by
Senator Fair Of this State, has been ex-
perimenting for several years in the M
tains Of Virginia on aerial telegraphy.
His theory is that there are electrical cur
rents in the air, which can be reached
from the top Of high mountains. and that,
when reached. communication can be had
from one point to another without the aid
of connecting wires. The results of the
experiments are said to be surprisingly
successful, and calculated to revolutionize
the whole Geographic system of commu-
nication. 1t is claimed by Prof. Loomis
that water can also be used as q medium
of telegraphio communication, aud that
he will shortly make the experiment Of
telegraphing from one side Of the Atlantic
to The other. using the ocean itself as .
means Of communication. 1t is possible
that instead of having subterranean cables
and lines Of wires from one place to an
other, the electrical currents which are
supposed to pervsde the atmosphere above
the earth. and the waters Of lakes, seas
aud oceans, will be used for transmitting
new all over the earth.
