Carson & Colorado.

The San Francisco Chronicle, OF
Wednesday, has this:
From what can be learned re-
garding a meeting of the Carson 4
Colorado Railroad directors held
here yesterday, it is believed that
the line isabout to branch out with a
new enterprise, by which it will be
given a direct outlet to the seashore.
They were gathered in this city
yesterday II. M Yerington, Presi-
dent of the line. D. A. Bender,
Secretary, and Directors NJ. B.
Langhorns, 3. P. Smith, w. s.
Wood and James H. Dickinson. 1t
was learned from an outside source
that these gentlemen met to consult
upon the project of the extension OF
their line South from Owens Lake
to Los Angeles. d. y. Mills, who
owns 8 controlling interest in the
road, is 3aid to have become dis
satisfied with the volume OF the
business by it, and is anxious to
better tbs condition of the property.
The only way that can be done, he
thinks, is to push it on to Los
Angeles, and this will no doubt be
soon accomplished.
The Carson ard Colorado people
are experimenting in the prolonga-
ton Of the line OF railroad ties. It
is known that wood immersed in the
waters OF Owens Lake for . certain
time is not subject to decay for .
great number of years. 1t IS be-
lieved that by giving all its ties a
bath in the lake the railroad COM
pany will affect q great saving. The
water contains chemicals which,
when we'll drawn into the pores of
the wood, cause it to resist the ac-
ton of the elements.

Now that Blaine has drawn out
of the Presidential race. . great
many newspapers and small politi-
clans are aiming their little sneers
at him. Such people and such
journals should keep in mind that
the same tactics were resorted to to-
ward Henry Clay after his final de-
feat for the Presidency, but Henry
Clay is still remembered, and will
be while the world lasts. But who
can call up the names of those who

DINMlG,s AOC0mPLlCE.

On Friday some very important
testimony was presented against
DINING being tried for the murder
Of Benhayon.
DINING claimed that he hired q
certain room for an designation with
a women whose name he refused to
disclose On tho ground that it would
injure her character.
During all ths public excitement
over this mysterious and senHsticn-
al murder the police have constant
~ run against CLOVIS which showed
the indefatigable exertions of Mrs.
.Neiaiag On behalf Of BeWer5.
Her cunning has always been .
triAe too much for the detectives
and she was always ready with an
swers. She has crawled and
souirmed and evaded ever since the
trial began, and was always bob
hing up to lend . hand for Bowers.
Tho police believed her capable
Of anything. but could never trip
her.
Now comes witness whopositive-
" identifies her As the woman who
at IL 80 Of the fatal night was
helping DINING to get Benhayon up
to the room where he was poisoned.
The witness also overheard her say
in an undertone to DINING.

old beldame who has SO long been
the female Friday Tor Bowers is
now in position from which her
cunning will not be apt to extricate
her. Bowers did the planning
Zeising acted as the means Of
communication between Bowers and
DINING and now turns up as Dim
MICS assistant in dragging the I'M
fortunate Benhayon to his doom.
The coils are tightening about the
depraved trio and they will doubt
" swing together from the same
gallows.

Information has been received here In re-
gard to gigantic Anglo. American com.
mercial scheme in which several American
millionares, including Jay Gould, the
Rothcbilds, the Duke Of Devonshire, the
Duke Of Westminster, and others are said
TO he concerned. IL has been ascertaincd
that the promoters propose TO erect gran
aries, warehouses, pork caring establish
ments, and cheese and butter factories on
sites convenient TO the several great lines
OF railroads leading into Chicago.
All kinds OF American produce, such as
-four, bacon, cheese, butter, and fruits OF
every description, as well as live stock are
TO be carried to Chicago, and thence by the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad to New York.
A bridge will be built connecting the
mainland with Staten island, where large
docks will be constructed by the syndicate
Of capitalists. From New York the prod
ucts OF the United States will be carried by
steamers specially built for the company
and landed at Barrow in-Furness, OF which
the Duke Of Devonshire is the principal
proprietor, besides being president OF the
Furnees railway. At Barrow the company
propose building alongside the docks abat.
toirs for slaughtering the cattle immedi'
stely after landing, also tanneries for pre-
pairing the hides and factories for making
margarine out Of the tallow.
Large warehouses are also to be erected
at Barrow, and thence the food products
will be distributed throughout Great Britain

supply consumers direct without incurring
any middlemen's charges.

NUMBER SEVEN.
Some Facts About Lucky and UnluoEy
Figures.

Even from very ancient times, when
superstition relgGei supreme, the luckiness
and unlucklnets Of numbers has been
a matter of considerable interest. The
numtCr : has always been considered
lucky number and 10 especially unlucky.
Take, for example, the seven judges who
are now sitting on appeal In the Jake Sharp
cste. II they decide against him It will be
lucky for Nicoll; II they decide In his favor
u will bo very lucky for Sharp. Take the
seven dmale hair growers. IL may be that
their luck depends az much upon the figure
Z as upon the remedy they use, or, like the
man who said that "any man that makes
two blades OF grass grow where one grew
before IL a public benefsctor, 50 II any
hair tonic can make seven hairs grow where
but one grew before Il s very lucky for the
potsessOr Of the bald head In question.
The luckiest application OF the figure z,
however, IL shown In the following letter,
recently received from a member OF the
state judiciary In Tennessee

\ large number Of people witnessed the
eclipse OF the moon on saturday evening,
and were extremely gratiied at the prompt
and satisfactory manner with which the

The sight was an extremely pretty one
and an unclouded sky allowed a full view Of
the entire proceeding. Several gentlemen
excused themselves for their tardiDess In
getting home that night on the ground
that they were engaged in seeing Through
