A Convenient Place

The War Department intends to take
the soldiers away from Fort McDer.
mitt because the place is seventy eight
miles from the railroad. This excites
much, and it must be admitted, reason.
able disgust among the residents of
that section. Nevertheless if the
troops must be kept uear the railroad
they should also be kept within easy
striking distance of any locality which
may ever by any possibility need their
protection. Without defending the
apparently stingy ideas of the Depart.
ment relative to Fort McDermitt.
Hawthorne offers location for post
which fills all the requirements as a
military base and meets the economic
views of the authorities at Washing.
ton.
In fairness the post at Fort McDer
mitt should be retained and one estab.
lished here also, but if it is decided to
move the troops to the railroad and
abandon that point entirely then Haw.
therne should be selected as the per.
manent post. We hgve servants in
Washington now who can do some
thing tor the State and while sympa-
thizing with the loss to be sustained
by the residents of North Eastern Ne.
vada, there is no reason why we should
not offer our place as an eligible loca-
ton in lieu of the one which is to be
vacated.

On Monday afternoon a wik;up sit
uated south of town was burned with
all its contents, The place belonged
to lame old fellow who chops wood
and makes himself generally industri
Gus. 1t contained his store of worldly
goods, consisting of rabbit skins, a gun
blankets and quite a stock of pine
nuts, which were all DESTROYED The
old man claims that it was wantonly
burned by white boys who were in
search of pine nuts, which statement
if true would not reflect any credit on
the character Of the boys. Although
we all realize the selfish ingratitude
and generally disaereeable traits of the
Piute there Is no warrant in their bad
disposition for brutality on he part Of
white people. II must be remembered
though, that the statements of an any
ry Piute peed some allowance as be
will doubtless make matters as bad as
possible. In the meantime it is safe
to assume that he was perfectly truth
full when he said there was no insur
ance on his property.

1t is believed that there is a case of
varioloid in Candelaria, and two other
possible cases are reported. 1t is not
wise to be unduly alarmed at the pros
pect of a visitation of this unpleasant
disease, as it is really not nearly so
dangerous as either typhoid fever,
scarlet fever or diphtheria, and most
of the dread and horror arises from
the unpleasant features of the progress
of the disease. In the meantime, as
precautions taken in time do not nee.
essalrly imply panic, it would do no
harm for the people to prepare for
prevention which is better than cure.
Keep the houses clean and well VENT
lated, use plenty disinfectants, and
deodorizers in out-houses and drains,
and take frequent baths-warm if
possible-and III this locality with our
pure air and clean ground you may
enjoy reasonable assurance that the
ugly visitor will pass you and lodge
with some one who has not made his
quarters so uninviting. The strong
wind here will keep the air fresh and
the danger of an epidemic is very
slight. In fact. the only source of
uneasiEess lies in the presence of SO
many Indians, who, owing to their
habits of life, ignorance of the proper
methods of care and unwillingness as
nurses, suffer terribly when the dis.
ease breaks out among them. Should
it appear that there is any danger of
the pest appearing, a demand can be
sent to the Indian Agent, that he order
the tribe to remain on the Reservation.
In the meantime il should be distinct
~ remembered that without proper
precautions the danger is mitch less
than in any one of the three other
diseases above mentioned, and with
the precautions above suggested cou-
pied with vaccination the danger is
reduced to minimum.

A brilliant star, said to be the Star
of Bethlehem that guided the wise men
of the East to the place where Jesus of
Nazareth was born, appears over the
eastern horizon at about 3 o'clock each
morning, and. like the stellar portion
of a comet, suddenly disappears.
Many rise at that honr to catch a
glimpse Of the wonder.
A rich strike has recently been made
in the Eureka Con. The Sentinel
says: Twelve dollars per share have
been freely offered but no one cares to
SELL 1t is believed that the stock will
reach $50. And as the new strike is
situated in part Of the mine where
there is room for very large chamber
of ore, its extent cannot be ascertained
without further exploration.

Satisfied Her CurSOsity

The Folsom Telegraph says that a
band of gypsies is camped near that
town and that the helles and beaux

The Star Mine.

The new shaft of the Star Mine in
ellis Mountain District IS now down
ninety feet, and enough good ore has
been taken out to pay for the sinking
Last week a small lot was shipped
which worked over $500 at ton. When
the shaft has been sunk fifty feet
deeper drift will be started and the
mine will doubtless pay large dividends
to its owners who are now working it
themselves.

Gre stolen.

Last week il was discovered that
some of the rich ore from the Pamlico
had been stolen. A sack containing IA
lot Of rock that was valued at about
$1,000 had been empsied and thea half
filled with waste, and covered with
enough of the good ROCK to make it up
10 its former size. The method was
ingenious but it is the general opinion
that whoever did the stealing would
have taken the whole sack had he been
wise, as that style of clubbing at a
game of that kind will allow the per
centage to run against him until he is

County Commissioners.

The Board of County Commissioners
met last Monday, present a full board.
A petition was received from the
citizens of Aurora, asking that the
Williams and Mcleod road be held as
a County road, and that the lease of j.
S. Mooney be revoked.
A communication from J. $. Mooney
was received, asking that he be given
further time until March Est. to COM
plete his contract.
1t was ordered that the order made
leasing the Williams and Mcleod road
from Aurora to Sunshine, to j. s.

petition of citizens of Road District
No. 8. and School District No. 10 the
Road District funds to the amount of
1856 be transferred to the School Dis

Ing school-house.
The Board having learned that it
could not change, the boundaries

road from Aurora to Sunshine was
rescinded, it is now a County road, not
belonging to any district.
This road matter can be fixed if the
citizens of Aurora send in a petition
for the extension of their district to
Sunshine on the State Line.
A petition of citizens of Columbus
received last month in relation to the
condition of the road from that place
to Candlaria was ordered filed. No

Inyo independents Panamint is
rapidly coming up as busy and pros
porous mining camp. At least forty
men are now at work for the Surprise
Mill aud Mining Company. Most of
these are getting out ore. Already a
large amount of ore is on the dumps
OF the Company's mines; this will be
delivered at the mill as rapidly as the
pack trains can move it. According
to the Hast report from the camp the
new mill would now be started up, as
everything was in readiness for a
start when the reporter left there.
There is more ore in sight at Panamint

the knowledge of any one IN this part
Of the country.
