and was no doubt true. But we learn
that one of these hopeful youngsters'
mammas threaten us with vengeance,
libel and other dire calamities. We
do not wish to do injustice to any one,
but as Il business is to give all le.
Ultimate news, no threats will deter
us from SO doing. Sometimes we are
called upon TO say unpleasant things
OF people for whom We bear the kind
lest feelings. But 1t is their own and
not our fault. A newspaper that will
not give the news, because it may
hurt somebody's feelings, is unworthy
the support OF an intelligent commu-
nifty. With us nothing is put down
in malice, but the news given as it
comes to us. This is not an apology
to any one, but a plain statement of
our position on all matters that come
within the province of legitimate
journalism.

The Miners Friend.

While in Taylor last week, we were
told that some time previous there
was some talk Of reducing wages by
n of the companies there, and it Is
but just to say that it was not the
Monitor. The miners ex expressed q
determination to resist the movement,
when one Of Wards enterprising
merchants came forward and offered
to put up $1,000 worth of grub for the
men to defeat the measure contem-
plated. Such a generous and noble
offer places the man high in the esti-
nation, not only of the miners, but of
all who believe that an honest days
work is worth $4, and those who are
not of that belief are people who never
work themselves. 1t is not often we
have to record such a manly act, and
while we are sure the gentleman who
offered this timely aid to the Taylor
miners, does not desire to have IL
made public, still We know it can do
no harm. 1t was NJ. b. Garaghan, OF
the firm of Garaghan Il Poujade.

in fine repair-in fact as good as new
and everything about it works to
perfection. There are more water
and steam pipes circulating through
it than ropes in a full rugged ship, but
each has its use, as Sam explained 10
us. About 200 tons of ore are on the
platform and together with this they
are working the old failing pile.
Though the ore is low grade, it is

They have still a force on the Rescue

the amount of business they are do

There are three restaurants and four

Robinson.

Robinson.
The second oldest District in the
county, is peacefully sleeping in Its
deep mountain gorge. Its gold and
copper mines, which are extensive
and give much promise of buried
wealth, lie dormant, waiting the
magic touch of the miner to reveal
their hidden treasures. From Mr.. A.
X. Watson we learned that Il San
Francisco company was about to take
hold OF some Of the properties in the
district, and that operations would
most likely be commenced this fall.
The Canton Company, of Ohio, own
some of the best mines in the District.
Hamilton,
The elder daughter of the county,
whose dawn was so bright as to at
tract the homage and admiration of
the world, but whose subsequent re-
verses and misfortunes were so dark
aud gloomy as to call forth the SYM
pathy of all who knew her i'm the
Gays of her renown, is now looking
better than we have seen her for
years-at least since 1877, though the
people there say times were much
livelier a month ago, before the
Sweetwater Company ceased work on
their Treasure Hill mines.

the deep drifts in Treasure Hill with
the aid of the burleighs Capt. Drake

generally supposed. Some small
bodies of rich ore have from lime 10
time been encountered, which IL is
believed will guide the way to a large
deposit. If money, pluck and perse-
veranee can reveal wealth in the
depths OF Treasure Hill the Eberhardt
people will surely find it.

county officials all at their posts, at
tending to their several duties, eour-
teous and obliging to all having bust
ness with them.

A Mexican MOnstrOsity,

At Guadalajara, says a veracious
Mexican paper, there lives man hay
ing scaly skin exactly like that of a
viper, even to the green color. He has,
besides, the viper habit of changing or
shedding his skin every year. The skin
comes off in a single piece, and not as
might be supposed, in parts. On the
mans head there is not a single hair.
A sister of this man, who died some
time ago, manifested the same phenom-
enon, and toward the close of her life
began slowly to grow blind, owing to
the viper's skin encroaching on the
eyes to such an extent that she could
only see through narrow aperture at
each eye. The same thing is now hap
pening to the brother. He can scarcely
see any object and the head presents
the repulsive aspect of viper. In Gu
autia these unhappy beings have been
known as the wiper man and woman, :"
and the phenomenon is attributed to
the fact that their mother ate an excess
of viper's meat to cure disease of the
blood. In Cuba it is common prac-
tice for people to eat viper's flesh as a
remedy for blood diseases.
