Visiting Card Etiquette.

From the Boston Courier" The ques.
tion of the propriety OF turning down the
corners of visiting cards is debated now
and then; and most persons. whatever
they think of the custom, at least regard
the trick a comparatively recent one. In
a book OF etiquette published In this
country about a hall century ago the
author remarks:
Ladies' have fashion OF pinching down
one corner OF card to denote that the
visit is to only one OF two parties IN
house. and two corners, or one side OF the
card, when the visit is to both. But this is
a transient mode and OF dubious respecta-
bility." ;.
The significance OF turning the corners is
different to-day. except that the end Is
doubled to denote that call is for all the
members OF family; but who had sup
posed the custom to be "of dubious res
pectability."

NEYADA MINING NOTES.

Experts at the Comstock-Rich Strike In
the Onondaga Mine-Coarse Placer Gold
The Yellow Jacket Mining Company is
now daily shipping 100 tons OF ore to the
Santiago mill.
All the San Francisco experts who have
lately visited the Comstock. have on their
return expressed themselves as being highly
pleased with the situation in the lower
levels.
A good deal OF prospecting is being done
below Silver City, in the vicinity OF Spring
Valley. 1t is a very promising region. Inere
are in that vicinity scores OF veins that
show gold on the very surface oil theground.
The Central Nevadian" says: From
reliable source we learn that rich strike
has been made in the Onondaga mine. we
were shown samples OF an assay value OF
from 5000 to $40O per ton, taken from a
three-foot ledge which was struck a few
days ago. George O'Briter, the superin-
tendendent, has twelve men employed tax.
ing out ore, and is shipping at t rate OF
one carload per day to Salt Lake Tor re-
duction. The property is owned by San
Francisco parties, and this discovery ls q
most welcome one to them and will result
in q great revival of interest in tue mines
OF that district.
At Phoebe, recently, as John Bingham,
Thomas Mcmahon and GeromiO Papina
| were coming up in bucket in the shaft OF
| the Yuba mine, the bucket began to turn
| in the guides and the miners candles Went
out. Papina, who steered, struck ms head
against the timbers under the guides and
was thrown from the bucket to the bottom
| OF the shaft, distance OF 400 feet, and was
/ mashed into pulp. The engineer, noticing
the vibration of the rope, brought the
bucket to a stop. Both the --other men were
injured, Bingham having two ribs broken.
Virginia "Chronicle:" A very good and
promising development has been made IN
the Hale & Norcross mine on the 5OO Level
That which adds to the interest and value
of the find is the fact that it is some ooo

than ore has heretofore been found. Ihus

that averages over $40 ton. How mucn

General Garfield himself was exceedingly

he frequently said yes to each OF two or
