The Gold Hill Miners Donation
Not Wanted.

Some time ago the Gold Hill Miners
Union sent 5 $1,000 to the Tombstone
strikers, who have wilted on their own
proposition, according to the following
extract from the Epitaph of Aug. Z: Indi-
cations seem to point to the fact that the
strike is at an end. A committee from
the Miners Union yesterday notified Mr..
Ellsworth, Agent for Wells, Fargo & Co.,
that they didn't want the 81 900 donated
by the Gold Hill Union, and that he might
return the money; and the further fact ia
that a number Of Union men have accepted
work at So q day. OF course, il is not
pleasant to be defeated, nor to be tainted
with Il told you so," and the Epitaph
does not intend to make any remark Of
that kind. On the contrary, it desires to
bear testimony to the almost universal
law-abiding spirit shown by the Union
men during the three months lockout.
The course pursued by the Union in the
main has been temperate and manly, and
the harsh words, if any have been spoken,
should be forgotten. There is perhaps
not a business man in Tombstone who
does not regret that a 81 rate Of wages
could not be maintained, yet such are the
fortunes of war.

GEORGE W. MARTIN,
JOEL HUNTER,
Sensible Talk.

The San Francisco Bulletin Of Saturday
says: There is one cry that never ceases,
and that is the cry for more money to de-
velop the mines on the Coast. Requests
of this kind have been coming down the
years for at least a quarter of a century
with unvarying monotony, and they will
continue just 30 long as people can be
found to respond, and this will be the case
until all chances of striking a fortune in
those holes in the ground have been aban.
doned. just when that time will come il
is not very easy to predict. 1t is hoped il
may never come. for whatever evils there
may be connected with stock gambling
and the most hardened operator will admit
that they are many and ~grievous-no one
wishes to see the mining industry absn-
doped. 1t is calculated that the mines OF
California alone have added 81, 200, 900 900
to the gold supply OF the world since they
were first opened in 1848. The value Of
such an addition to the wealth of the
world can never be fully measured. The
benefits are being constantly reproduced
in other forms.

The use Of choral is said to be in
creasing rapidly at the East, one New
York drug clerk estimating that there
we're not less than 5000 confirmed chic
raj iends in that city, with a much larger
number who are in the early stages of the
dangerous habit. 1t is now about 10 years
since choral was introduced to the public
as q patent medicine, with seductive prom
ises OF what it would do to calm disor-
dered nerves, soothe the irritable, and
drive insomnia from restless pillows.
The nostrum succeeded for a time and
made an army Of slaves to the choral
habit, but they soon gave mp taking the
drug in its expensive form and returned
to the simple choral in grains. The med
ical fraternity have come to look on
"chloralism" as a habit second only to
opium eating and smoking in its democrat
izing effects on the system and in its diff
Guilty OF cure.

Prohibition q Failure.

The General Committee OF the Kansas
Prohibitionists in their call for Q State
Convention says:
We believe the time has come when the
people of Kansas who are in favor Of real
temperance and good order, should adopt
some means to put a stop to increasing the
sale of liquors in the State, and to that
lawless and unrestrsined traffic failed to
check. That there should be a stringent
and practical law enacted, laying q firm
hand on the liquor business--a law compe.
tent to regulate, restrain and control it in
the interest Of sobriety and good govern
ment. By order of the general committee,

The Interstate Match.

The San Francisco Call says: 1t seems
doubtful whether q team competent &c
compete with the Nevada men can be put
together. as il is said the members Of tht
First Regiment will refuse to compete 70,
places on the team. unless the association
rescind the order passed at the last meet
ing. barring the Hepburn rife. The In
ter-Stste match was originally made sub
ject to the National Rife Associations
rules, which allowed any Government
rife. Since then the Hepburn has been
admitted and is allowed to be used in al
matches under the above rules; so it seems
strange how the California Association
can bar it. without Kuhnle, Kellogg,
Hovey and Brown, ii appears that nc
team can be got together capable Of de-
feating the Nevada men.

Practical Talk to Those who Praise
In s.Ruddy BUMPER"

u Bumper"
DR.. N. B. Richards, of London, the noted
physician, says he was recently able to con-
vey q considerable amount Of conviction to
an intelligent scholar by q simple expert
ment. The scholar was singing the praises
Of the rudy bumper" and saying be

when DR.. Richardson said to him.
"Will you be good enough 10 feel my
pulse as l stand here ?"
He did 80. Isaid, "count it carefully;
what does it say 2"
"Your pulse says IA"
l then sat down in q chair and asked
him to count it again. He did so, and said,
"Your pulse has zone down to TO-"
l then lay down ON the lounge and said
"Will you take it again ?"
He replied: "Why, it is only GA; what
an extraordinary thingl"
l then said: when you lie down at
night that is the way nature gives your
heart rest. You know nothing about
1t, but that beating organ is resting
to that extent; and il you reckon il
up it is Q great deal OF rest, be-
cause, in lying down, the heart Is doing 10
strokes less a minute. Multiply that by
60 and it is 600; multiply it by eight hours
and within q fraction it is 5000 strokes
different, and as the heart is throwing six
ounces Of blood at every stroke, it makes
q difference Of 10000 ounces Of lifting
during the night.
when I lie down at night without any
alcohol that 10 the rest my heart gets. But
when you take your wine or grog you do
not allow that rest, for the influence OF
alcohol is to increase the number OF
strokes, and instead of getting this rest you
put On something like IL, 900 extra strokes,
and the result is you rise up very seedy
and unfit for the next days work till you
nave taken q little more of the rudy

After that he went TO Utah Territory. and
from there to California with Judge
Crsdlebaugh as escort. He was finally
seen as Sergeant in the Nevada Cavalry

WHITE PLAINS WELL.
SAT- Water, Hot Water and Wood
Found In Sinking IL.


About two years ago the Central Pacific
Railroad Company deter mined upon sink
ing an artesian we'll at White Plains, near
the Desert Crystal Salt Works. This sta
ton is oil what was known to emigrants
who crossed the plains as, 1.-The Forty
Mile Desert" between the sink OF the
Humboldt and the Truckee river. The
surface Of the country is covered with salt
and alkali, which, in dry weather, makes
it appear as IL it was sprinkled with snow.
There is no fresh water in the vicinity.
though a short distance from the railroad
there are springs from the water OF which
salt OF the purest quality is manufac-
tured. The railroad company employed
W. @. Chaplin, who had had much expert
ence in boring wells in the oil regions in
Pennsylvania, to superintend the sinking
Of the we'll at White Plains. The Enter
prise says that after nearly II months Of
continuous work the drill has reached a
depth Of 2,100 feet, and is passing through
a stratum of rock, below which, it is be-
lieved, the desired fresh water will be
found. II not, the work will probably be
abandoned. The bore, which was at first
eight inches, has been considerably les
sened as the depth increased. Boiling
water has been struck and salt water
has been passed through, and still the
Q ,500-pound drill goes down in search
Of the much-wanted fresh stream. At the
depth Of l 700 feet, something very remark
able happened. The drill struck and passed
through nine feet Of solid wood. The sim
| gular point about 1t was that, although the
wood had turned entirely black, owing to
its long burial, it had not ~carbonized in
| the slightest, but could be whitfield and
broken like wood above ground. 1t hav-
ing turned black prevented Mr.. Chaplin
from determining its kind, but he sent
quite a number of pieces away to friends
and has a few left. Much Of the wood
came up in pieces, but little of it pulver-
izing under the action of the drill.
