1t is reported that the marriage Of two
Dayton couple took place in Virginia this

they had done anything of this kind, we
guess there is nothing in it.
The TIMES extends thanks to E. P. Love-
joy, of Wabuska, for a fine Thanksgiving
turkey. We remembered E. P. in our pray
ers that night, and also prayed he would
send US another turkey for Christmas.
Smith and Barton, the popular saloon

great business and make things quite lively
at the Switch every once in while, and
sometimes twice in a while.
A test run ofthe Nevada 60 stamp quar-
mill was made at Virginia City Saturday with

ed by Pelton water wheels, on the Sutro
Tunnel level of the Chollar incline, 1900
feet below the surface, and transmitted by a
copper wire to motors on the surface. 1t
was satisfactory in every respect and makes
it possible to proitably handle millions of
tons Of low.grade ore of the Comstock.
1t is the opinion of J. B. Hume, the
special detective Of Wells, Fargo & Co.,
that Charles E. Boles, better known as "Black
Bart" is the robber who of late has been
stopping so many stages in the upper part Of
California. So confident are Wells, Fargo
& Co., that "Black Bart" is the guilty man
that they are making every effort to locate
him, and will pay handsomely for informa-
ton that will lead to the discovery of his
whereabouts. The standing rewards for the
conviction Of the party or Parties guilty Of
these robberies aggregate $500.
