 afinn Da V R ami n dacanca

''M," a correspondent in Trumbull, says: Among the recent Evacuation day reminis- cences was the toppling down of two tall old fashioned chimneys, which had stood ex- posed since the tearing to pieces of the old Town Hall in Trumbull This structure was dwelling house, mansion in it's day, and in which the father of Prof Silliman of Yale was born. Thus goes the last sight of this Revolutionary relic. General Silliman was a near friend of Washington; and in this dwelling now gone, the Silliman family took refuge in their flight from Fairfield when in danger by the British.

Mining Items.

A mica boom is one Of the things We
can bet on for next summer.
The owners Of the Golden Summit
mine have purchased the old Brady
10 stamp mill and with 10 stamps adde |
from the Elliott mill near Central, will
be set up on the mine.
Messrs. Foran & McShecr will this
winter take from their mines at camp
Washington one hundred tons Of ore
for milling which they are confident
will average $50 per ton. One peculiar
ity about this camp is that there is tons
of rock to be found on the surface that
will average s. to the ton. A custom
mill located neal the mouth Of Rub,
would prove 4 bonanza for al, concern
ell.
The Harvey hydraulic company is
preparing to cnt 100000 feet of lullber
for the repair and extension Of its bed.
rock hume which was badly damaged
by high water. Everything will be in
readiness for the resumption of mining
ut an early day in the spring, and every
indication points to a large clean up at
the close OF the season. SO says the
Pioneer.
Although little only was heard the
past summer concerningthe Battle creek
hydraulic company, we have every as
surance that it, operations. althougA.
conducted Oh Il moderate sblle-its force
never exceeding four men-were in the
highest degree successful, the seasons
run yielding $4,000. The property be-
longs to the Riggs estate, and is very
extensive. Great preparations are I'M
der way for work on AN enlarged system
next year.
A visit to the Grand Junction on last
Monday found the genial superintendent
and bookkecpcr, Messrs Mcdonald and
Speed, at home awaiting orders from
headquarters. When asked what he
thought of the mine, Mr.. DcDonald said:
1T is without doubt one of the best
mines in the Hills and will eventually
prove The bonanza of the Southern
Hills, and while the last cleanup was
far ahead of any other made none but
the poorest ore in the mine has yet been
milled." These remarks from an ex
perienccd superintendent who is wei
belt is certainly encouraging. And W,
predict that if the company will back
! his Judgment and give him full authority
TO do the work necessary the propert,
would be put on a dividend paying basi:
inside of six month.

The CHRONICLE does a great injustice
to X. O. Adams, both in stating that he
has defaulted in Idaho, and that he
served "a short apprenticeship in the
chair factory at Detroit" Fair play is
a iewel.--Pioneer l0th.-In the article
referred to by the Pioneer, we started
off by stating as the Pioneer charges,
but after it was placed in type we found
that we had been wrongly informed, by
the Times, and appended a retraction,
and thus laid ourselves liable to be
likened to our critical Deadwood con
temp rary in election time. We're
sorry.
