A Laying Rooster.

There has occurred q phenomenon in
the chicken yard Of q gentleman In Eu-
reka who wants his name kept out OF type
for fear people won't believe the story,
that is inexplicable-a veritable rooster
laying eggs. This sounds very queer. but
he says it is o fact, or else there ia some
unforeseen jugglery that he cannot IN
derstand. The rooster goes on the nest
every day, and after the functions of the
hen have been performed, he comes off.
utters a derisive csckle to the rest of the
fowls and goes on about his business
a. though nothing had happened. This
peculiar fowl has been watched closely,
and he has been seen 20 go on the mes
daily, come off cackling and there
the egg. No hen was ever seen
about the nest, and the @ rooster
was monarch of that bsiliwick-or
nest. This fowl has aroused the ad-
miration OF our soul, and is an exemplar
worthy OF the emulation OF the husband
man. He has seen the tolls and struggles
of the overworked and greatly oppressed
hens and has come to their rescue and is
helping them to supply the demand now
seriously felt in commercial circles-and
at the clearinghouse. he cares nothing
for a protection tariff, a tariff for revenue
only, or free trade; his only desire is to
meet the demands for home consumption
and 10 see that the Christmas nog is not
wanting. What the country needs most is
a few more laying ROSTERS.

OUR MINING INDUSTRY.
Facts That Indicate n Renewal OF
Prosperity.

For several years past the population OF
our State has been steadily decreasing, Q
loss that is mainly attributed to the grad
ual decline Of our mining industry. The
decline along the Comstock has its reiec-
ton, and every mining district in the State,
no matter how promising its prospects was
affected in q corresponding degree. The
effect then produced has never been over
come, q fact which has given birth to the
idea that Nevada mining properties are
worked out, and that another season OF
prosperity will never come through the
medium Of the mines. The Developments
that is constantly going on, and the dis
coyeries that have followed, have demon
strated most conclusively that this impress
sion is groundless, and that proper en-
couragement, and the removal OF certain
contingencies under which the mining ira
ternity labor, will build up our wi lag.
ging industry, and activity and consequent
prosperity will come again.
Numerous instances can be cited corroo-
orstive Of the fact that practically absn-
doned mining camps have been brought
back to life by energy and perseverance,
and are to-day heavy bullion producers.
Tusoarors is q fair representative OF this
class OF mining camps. A few years ago It
was generally considered worked out"
but subsequent development has estab-
lished the fact that its future may be even
more prosperous than its past. 1t is un-
necessary, however, to cite instances so
far from home. Those who are familiar
with the history Of this county can recall
parallel instances that have taken place In
this immediate neighborhood. Two
years ago the Paradise mine
was practically ~abandoned-in fact
was considered worthless by former
operators-but energy and mining ability
have had their effects. and to-day II is one
Of the most promising mines ip the State.
Other properties in the same neighborhood
only require the same determined energy
and requisite capital TO bring them out.
Willow Greek District has had its struggle,
but capital has at last become interested in
its development, and the result that has
followed has been of the most encouraging
character. This district certainly offers as
fine inducements as o mining camp can
desire.-Silver State.
Pretty much the same can be said OF q
hundred other mining districts and OF Eu-
reks especially.

Gold coins are in local circulation, which
although not counterfeit, are equally to be
repudiated by all to whom presented.
Their spurious nature consists in the fact
that they have been deprecated by zorro.
sive acids, and although gold. with q clear
genuine ring, each and every one of such
coins has lost from 20 to 80 per cent Of
their value, and cannot be Dashed at the
banks for their face. AS far as is known,
this depreoia ted currency is in five dollar
pieces. They can easily be detected upon
close observation, being lighter than the
standard and more smooth over the sur
face, the action of the acids having cut
down the sharply defined enclosing Of both
stamp and milling. One Of these coins
was tested by q Eureka merchant yester-
day on delicate scales, and it was found to
have lost just one-ffth ($1) Of its original
value.
