1t W as Too Big q Risk.

NEBRASKA CITY, NeD,, Oct. 27.-[Special to
The BEE. "A local paper copied a special to
an Omaha paper from Marshalltown, Ia, in
which it was stated that a banker named
Clahin was willing to bet $4,000 on Cleve-
lands election, and that he would carry the
states of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Connecticut, New Jersey and New
York The item met the eyes of Erastus
Moore, a former resident of Iowa, at present
in this city, on his way west with his family.
He to-day returned TO Marshalltown for the
purpose of drawing out Of Clafin's bank a
large sum of money deposited there by him.
He declares that a banker making such bets
can not be expected to be trusted, and he for
one could not afford to risk his money on
Cleveland.

A Herald Assertion "Caned."

CREIGHTON, Neb,, Oct. 25.-To the Editor
of THE BEE: The Herald Of October 25
makes the assertion that John II. Hayes
spoke to small crowd and that bets were Of
fered two to one on McShane. John II.
Hayes spoke to a larger audience than any
democrat in Knox county this fall, and / will
give $50 to the party who wrote the article il
he will furnish a man who will bet two to
one on McShane, provided he will bet 500
that McShane will be elected governor of
Nebraska November q, 1855, money to be de-
posted in Knox county bank. If this is the
chaff used by the Herald to convince people
that Nebraska is democratic they are as
liable to get into power as a hog is to go to
heaven. CHARLES KAMASsKI.

An Indian Row.

Yesterday Constable James Colgan
brought Indian Joe IN from Candearia
to serve n thirty day sentence for n
drunken row. Joe and some. other
braves had filled up with illegal wills
XIV last Thursday and Joe feeling war
like attacked his companions. An
earnest and lively defense was made
and all parties were considerably
bruised before the fight ended. Joe,
the agressor, received the most punish
ment, and was afterwards arrested
| and sentenced as above. 1t is evident
that there are people lin Candelaria
! who are able to evade the consequences
of breaking the law IN the matter OF
selling liquor to Indians. 1t is diff
| cult to detect those who are at all
shrewd, for the Indians themselves up.
on whose testimony they must be con.
yicted, give their evidence with great
| reluctance, as they who are addicted to
drink are unwilling to give up their
source of supply. If a punishment
could be inflicted which wonld have
sufficient terror to make the drinkers
careful, much annoyance might be
saved and the whisky trade with the
Government wards would he sensibly
reduced. Confinement is disagreeable
to the savage, but it is losing it's terrors
as he knows that he will be well fed,
and any work which he may have to
do, Ia &gk. If, however, when a
drunken Indian is arrested. he should
be dressed in skirts and set to work on
the streets, he would suffer so much
from the ridicule of his tribe that it is
probable the dread of repetition of
the punishment would make him hest
tate long time before getting drunk
again.

Married.

Last Thursday night George Cara,
we're and Miss Ida Osborne were mar.
ried at the residence of A. Aaroe. The
house was full of guests all wishing
the handsome couple the best of luck
and all enjoying the good things
which the happy bridegroom had pro
vided for the occasion. 1t was ex
pected that demonstration would be
made by the boys and the expectations
were fully realized. Just after the
ceremony while the wedding guests
were making merry over the cake and
wine, there suddenly came sound as
though Russia had struck the tocsin of
war in concert with the alarm for an
other Chicago fire. The air was vic.
lent with bells, gongs, pans and explo
ding bombs and it was evident to the
slowest minds that there was somebody
outside. After allowing the Anarug.
ians to show what they could do in
illustrating the effect in Pandemonium
George went out and found that the
boys had gathered from all directions
to celebrate the forging of the matri
monial cham. The house was thro wn
open and everybody was invited to
enter and ehare the banquet. The
effigies typical Of conjugal felicity
were admired and after each and all had
| made merry to their hearts content,
gene al congratulations were extended
and the company dispersed.

Lockout Mines.

Inyo Independent: Fitzgerald and
Gum have leased the Minietta mine
to Clinton and McGovern for term of
six months The lessees have already
opened fine body of ore in what is
known as the "Coburn cut" in the
mine. They will soon be included in
the list of shippers. They have five
men employed.
That portion of the Hearst mine
known rs the three hundred foot ore
body, in the main tunnel, has been
been leased by Fitzgerald TO John Cur
ran.
Fitzgerald has leased the Lava Beds
mine to Frank Cox for five months
Cox is working three men besides
himself in the mine.
On the first Monday of the present
month Fitzgerald began sinking on
one of his claims called the Kentuck.
Eight days afterwards the men were
taking out two tons of ore each day
Three eight hour shifts are now work.
ing and with but two men on each
shift the yield is three and half tons
daily The average value of the ore
is SO ounces SILVER per ton and So per
cent lead. A patent hosting wind
lass is being put up and a track laid
for the ore cars; when these improve
ments are completed the ore shipments
will average about twenty tons each
weel. The Kentuck is in very
rough country; it cost Mr.. Fitzgerald
$40 to make trail 800 feet long to
the mouth of the shaft. All the indi-
cations are favorable for finding big
ore body IN the Kentuck mine.

up from the ground with little more
than the labor of STOPPING.
Few such places were found but,
though the Lapanta showed that there
was gold deep in the ground. the pros.
pectors reluctantly gave up their search
for treasure that did not need mining.
However, by degrees miners began to
sink on lodges and, although there
were the usual number of disappoint-
ments, there were enough develop
ments to indicate the chances of wealth
for those who went to work in earnest.
For time the Lapanta was closed, all
the ore of high grade having been ex.
tracted, but at that time the Pamlico
in a distant section of the district,
began to yield the rich rock which
has made it famous and which yield
making the allowances to which gold
miners are accustomed, of the time
required for passing through occasional
bodies OF barren or lower grade rock,
has been continuous ever since.
While the Pamllco was showing
what might be expected from deeper
workings the lessees OF the Lapanta
opened body of ore better than any
previous deposit. This ore body in
the deepest workings of the mine is
still yielding and were it now even
completely exhausted the mine would
be regarded by mining men as more
valuable in speculative sense than
ever.
Encouraged by the results in these
two mines other men have been doing
systematic work and more are pre-
pairing to begin. The discoveries in
the Narrow Gauge and Green Isle are
but types of what may be expected in
any of the claims where real work is
done or reasonably promising sur.
| face indication 1t is now understood
that where one deposit of gold. bearin g
quartz has been found the probability
of others of the same kind existing in
the same ledge is almost a certainty
and the total exhaustion of all pay ore
in sight will no longer be an induce
meht to miners to relinqulsh thell
exertions. Work will hereafter be
steadfastly prosecuted and the variety
Of formation and character of develop
ments in the several sections of the
district will be unusually interesting
to mining men of study and research
while the pecuniary results will be
beneficial to those who stake their
time and money against the rocky
walls of the chambers where the gold
| lies hidden.

Will wait till times get better and
McGlnnis gets job before they open
again.
There is no water in the water pipes
yet. The ground was probably frozen

School began in the new Distrlct
(No. 13) in Mason Valley on the 10Th
of this Month. The school has 90
scholars and is taught by Miss May
Donahue, of Gold Hill.
Jack Connerty opened a faro game
in the Union Hotel last Saturday
night. The game has managed to run
ever since. but we do not believe there
is money enough in the camp to make
it lasting thing.
| The young ladies of Silver City are
to give leap year party at Miners
Union Hall on the 10th of next month
and 1t is supposed that all the marriage
able young men of that place will re-
ceive proposals.
Mr.. Rulison has got the water into
the Douglass ditch, but the town is still
short of soft water on account of the
frozen condition of the logs. It would
be good scheme to sink the main
logs deep enough in the ground this
Summer to insure supply of water
in case the town should get on fire
after the first frost next fall.
All the mines in Silver City are shut
down yet, except the Oest. Some
lite work is beng done on this mine.
The Haywood started up the first of
| week, but the rain storm made the
! roads impossible and work ceased.
All the mines are looking well, and in
the Spring lively times may be looked
for, as the Haywood, Oest, Brown and
Lacrouts mines will all be turning out
good rock.

How to Saw Trees.

A reliable farmer, writing to an
agricultural journal, says if you bore a
quarter-of-an inch hole into the heart
of a tree that is infested and inject as
much dry sulphur as possible, then
insert small plug to keep the sulphur
In place, 1t will cure blight, make the
tree strong and in no way 'injure it,.
this is very valuable boon to fruit
growers, as the sulphur goes through
all parts of the tree, being absorbed
from the heart, and makes it good
healthy collar. The writer of the
article saw trees that were nearly dead
from some kind Of insect, that were
living and had beautiful, thrifty
green appearance after being treated
rs above. This is one of the most val
liable discoveries of the age to fruit
growers, and we present 1t for the ben.
eft OF our readers.

Delugfng q Desert.

Fl. M. Yerington, President of the
Carson and Colorado Railroad, and
his associates, D. o. Mills and Nicho.
Jas Luning and other capitalists, have
just concluded an arrangement with
Professor Thomas Chatard of the Uni
ted States Geological Survey, to take
charge f'their soda works at Owens
Lake, Mono County.
Mr. Chatard was sent last Summer
by the Government to examine soda
deposits throughout the West, as he
was considered leading Authority on
this and similar questions. He has
been induced by this syndicate To re.
sign his position under the Govern
ment, and will leave for the West on
the 1st OF March.
The scheme of the capitalists is one
of the most stupendous ever undertaken
in the Wesl. They propose diverting
the waters of Owens river, allowing
the lake to dry out, and carrying the
waters beyond the lake into Death
Valley, thus making garden of the
most desolate wilderness of the West.
and opening thousands of acres for
settlement.
They then propose to extend the
Carson and Colorado Narraw Guage
Railroad to connection with the
Atlantic and Pacific, in this manner
making a very profitable railroad out
of the G & C-Appea1.

Lost In the Mountains.

bishop Creek Register: About two
weeks ago, H. P. Noyes left Sherwin's
place at the upper end of Round Val
ley, to go on long snow shoes to Mono
Mills, thence to Bodie. He took am.
pie provisions to last four days, the
time he intended to put in by easy
stages to the Mills, although on dry
roads he might make the distance in
one day. He was accompanied by his
dog only; being something of an ex.
pert on snow shoes, and we'll acquaint.
ed with the route, no apprehension
was entertained as to his safety until
last Monday, when the dog came back
TO Sherwin's reduced to skeleton.
Mr.. Sherwln fearing the wors, came to
this place and telegranhed an inquiry
to Bodie. After some hours delay an
answer came to the effect that nothing
had been heard there or at Mono Mills
of the missing man Mr.. Slerwln
returned home intending with his son
and others to start early the following
morning in search, but with scarce the
slightest hope of finding him alive.
Mr. Moves and partner Dickinson, had
been hauling building material to this
place from Bodie during the fall, and
on the return trip to Bodie had got as
far as Sherwin's at the beginning of
the big storm. After the weather had
cleared up, Mr.. Noyes decided to go
| on as related, Mr.. Dickinson remaining
at Sherwin's with the teams. The day
on which he started was bright but
very cold. but ALL the better in this last
regard for snow shceing, though en-
HANGING the risks for snow-blindaess.
1t seems that he was also subject to
| severe attacks of rheumatism, and in
view of all che facts. it is almost GER
tain the unfortunate man has per-
isbed.
Later-Mr. |. F. Smith informs us
today that yesterday morning Mr..
Sherwin and his son Birkett, Prince
Smith, Dickinson, and we believe, one
other whose name we do not recall,
went in search of the missing man and
had proceeded only about seven miles
when they found him lying face down
wards, his lighter coat bound about
his head, his overcoat, snow shows and
untouched provisions bat a few feet
away. 1t did rot appear that he had
moved limb after falling. A notable
fact is that the faithful dog watched
over his dead master thirteen days at
least, eating nothing whatever in all
that time, although there was an abun-
dance in the bundle on which he prob.
ably laid. The party attempted to
bring in the BODY, but after proceeding
| with 1t mile or so, were forced to
leave it and come IN for sled. The
funeral took at Bishop Creek last Fri
| day afternoon. The scene of the sad
occurrence was Mono county.
