this Winter is having noticeable eff

Get RId OF the DeIInquents.

Now that the year is coming to
close and many Of our miners have
done the annual assessment work for
themselves and others, the following
from The Scientific and Mining Press
is PERTINENT:
1t is a Use provision of our mining
laws which simplifies the method of
getting rid OF partners in mining
claims who do not contribute their
share Of the assessment work in either
money or labor. In the old days 1t
was hard TO define abandonment of a
claim, and difficult to get rid of part
ners who neglected 10 do their work.
They could at any time throw a cloud
over the title and prevent sale. Now,
however, delinquent co owners can
be given legal notice in newspaper
without personal service OF any pa
pers. IL is true, the notice must be
published three months before other
action can be taken, but proof of the
publication will prevent any compli-
cations of title in case the delinquent
tries To make any fuss.
Miners who do their assessment
work for the year In the various dis
triets, and who are associated with
co-owners who neglect or refuse to
contribute their proportion, should
give legal notice in the nearest paper,
and do 1t Immediately, so that delin-
quents can be got rid of at once, and
not be liable to interfere IN case of
strike in the mine or prospective.

THE JOANNA BONANZA.
One OF the Biggest Mines Ever Seen
On the Pacific Coast


We took drive up the canyon a
few days ago to take another look al
the Joanna mine. We found three
men quarying out the hillside on a
breast 100 feet or more, and keeping
two teams steadily at work hauling to
the mill. The only waste on this
breas. of ore is about foot of sage
brush and loose gravel that is strip

Already numerous offers are COM

purchase of the property; but Mr..
Watson, knowing he has good thing,
is not at all anxious to part with it.
We are reliably informed that bond
for 30 days and 100000. with for

nadlans, now charm the visitor and warm

other anniversary eXcites equal cnthu-
siasm among the French, that of Sept.
Ia, 1873, when Jacques Cartier arrived
with three armed vessels; and the story
goes that as they turned the point below,
and the wonderful rock came in view,
the pilot of the leading vessel exclaimed
IN BretaGne French. Que beck!" (Quelle
beck-"What a peak!'O IL is venerable
chestnut, but, as no one can give any
better reason for the origin of the name,
we shall have To accept it.
At that time there was barely room
for pathway between the river and the
foot of the Clitr where the recent de-
structive land slide occurred, and PA
years later, when Wolfe made his cele-
brated flank movement, there was little
more than good wagon Wal. . lut soon
after the English began TO remove the
debris at the foot of the cliff and build
out into the shallow river front, and
hon M,n g.. a L..
hill, on the last day of 1875, there was
room for two narrow streets and average
blocks on each side of them. TO an
American just from Broadway, or any
Western street, it looks as if the people
might shake hands from the upper win
dows across the street where the
slide was, and the stairs at the east
end, 10y which one goes up from the
street 10 the old city, are certainly not
wider than those in many a private resi-
dcnCc.
Early in this century the engineers
concluded that the cliff was one mass,
not broken or separated by natural crew
icce and so all the loose rock and earth
remaining was removed and lower town
was built so far out into the river that it
is now a very considerable part of the
city. AS land became valuable the
people cncroaChed more and more upon
the clih until at two points the houses
actually extended under a concavc RIB"
of rock. In lsil came loud warning
an enormous boulder fell and many
smaller ones followed it, cruslsng eight
houses and killing thirty-two people. 1t
does not appear from any attainahlc rec
ord that the warning was greatly re-
garded; they explained it in some way
and went on building up to and under
the CliH.
