Fighting the Elements.

We have had occasion to refer several
times to the condition Of the stage roads
south from Eureka. They are probably in
q worse plight now than at any previous
time since the beginning Of Winter; and,
as is conceded by everybody, such a season
Of severe and frequent storms has never
been known in Eastern Nevada before.
We have suffered some inconvenience from
the detention OF the mails between Eureka
and the mining camps south. The annoy
ance TO the people in such towns as Phoebe,
Ward and Hamilton on account of irrsgu-
larity in transportation OF the mail and
freight must. of course, be excessive. For
this state OF things nobody is to blame, and
there is nothing TO do but to grin and bear
up until Providence interposes and gives
the roads q chance to improve. Mean
while, the stage company, through their
active and indefatigable agent, W. j.
Townshend. are doing everything possible
to relieve the people along their route.
Their stage drivers are on the road day
and night working their way ahead
through mountains of snow and rivers of
slush inch by inch. The c%ompany's horses
are the best stage stock on the Coast, we'll
groomed and fed all they can eat, but they
cannot accomplish physical impossibilities.
II is cheering to know that this spell of
weather we have now osn hardly last until
the Fourth of July.

The business people Of Grass Valley,
CAL, show c~ommendable energy in the
organization of local companies that are
continually being formed for the develop.
ment Of mines in that district. They are
formed on the assessment plan, and their
business is conducted in a most economi-
cal manner in the direct interests Of the
stockholders. Assessments are levied OF
one-quarter to one cent per share. The
merchants, lawyers and miners all take
shares according to their ability to keep
up their assessments As a natural result,
the camp is in a prosperous condition, and
at no time in its history have the future
prospects for it been as bright as at the
present. The people of Eureka would do
we'll to emulate the thrifty inhabitants Of

ported that Miss Nellie Bracket, compan-
ion Of Miss Hill, plaintiff in the celebrated

garding her whereabouts. Judge Sullivan

tention.
SAN Francisco, March 31.-The topic OF
conversation in the Sharon divorce case
this morning is the disappearance Of
Nellie Bracket from the scene. Various
surmises are advanced, but nothing def
mite is stated. On the opening Gen.
Barnes said: GAS an officer Of this court,
and as conducting this case, I want to say
on behalf of myself and client that he has
had nothing to do with Nellie's absence.
l desire TO disavow, on behalf Of Mr..
Sharon and myself, any movement TO
cause her absence" To this Tyler replied:
'If Mr.. Barnes goes into this matter
/ shall deem it necessary to go into fur
Their matters, and refer to statements that
have been made by attorneys at law, who
have been waiting on Sharon in reference to
this case. When the proper time m
shall produce afidavits if the witness does
not come forward, that may throw

THE CATTLE THIEVES.
Vigorous Steps 90 Corral and Jail
Them.

nGHHa
The action of the Nevada Live Stock
Association in hunting down horse and
cattle thieves, and vigorously prosecuting
them. will, it is believed, effectually stop
the business of stealing stock in Northern
Nevada. The newspapers without excep-
ton approve the stand taken by thes stock
owners, and believe that, although expen-
sive at the outset, it will eventually prove
to be the cheapest method that could be
devised for the protection of theiI property
and Kidding the country of those who
have preyed upon their herds. The con-
viction Of Bowden and Lee at Winnemucca
revealed the existence of a band OF
thieves, which had its headquarters in
the Juniper ranges, an almost inaccessible
portion of country, on the line of Hum.
boldt county and Oregon. The band has
now been completely broken up and its
supposed leader captured. The loss sus-
tanned by the s~tock-owners of this State
through the d~epredations Of such scoun-
drels is enormous, and as their apprehen-
sion was difficult, cattle-owners show their
good sense by offering liberal rewards for
the capture and conviction of all horse or
cattle thieves, instead of following the ex-
ample, too frequent set in some OF the ad-
joining States and Territories, of resorting
to Judge Lynch"

DALLAS, Tex, March 31.-At noon to-

rested on the spot for the crime. He is a
resident of Dallas, and is employed as a
drummer by Derby & Day of st. Louis,
and is a brother of Samuel J. Adams, the
Dallas banker. The accused for years has
been in intimate relationship with Polly
Parker, the most notorious of the Dallas
demi monde, who two years ago estab-
lished a house Of the worst repute at LOG
Commerce street, within two feet of
Burns residence. The family is said to
have been subjected to outrageous insults
and persecution by Adams, Madame Par

quented the den. Mrs. Burns was an
invalid, unable to leave her house, other
wise she and her husband would have
moved long ago. They recently attempted
to sell the property, but were prevented
by the surroundings and could get no pur-
chasers, nor could they aver rent it.
Hacks had been caused to stand in front
OF the residence, to make people think the
Burns were of bad reputation. The killing
has raised public indignation to a high
pitch. The streets were filled with ex-
cited men Of all classes this afternoon and
evening. Everybody condemns Adams.
Hundreds are heard to openly declare in
favor Of going to the Jail tonight and
lynch Adams, and also to tear Madame
Parker's house down. The news from
Cincinnati has influenced the public
mind, and on every hand remarks are
heard: "We need a little of Cincin-
natl here" The Sheriff has doubled his
force, and is riding about the city
warning men not to attempt lynching, as
it will result in the loss of many lives. A
jury has been obtained, but the inquiry
will be continued till tomorrow. Adams
has secured several of the ablest lawyers in
the city, and this is eagerly commented on
in connection with his wealthy relation
ship. The population, particularly the
laboring element, are greatly aroused.
