a3mEa PARTIES.
A crowd of miners known gener-
ally az '.the Holman crowd, are
now haIding possession Of the
North Carson mine, and propose
this tins to stay with it.
Last year, after tho strike at the
bottom OF the Langtry we'll was
made, Ees, Holman, of Virginia
City, seat crowd down to jump
the claim. They nailed a reloca-
ton notice on the door Of the up
oar tunael aad held possession OF
the wo-ka With shotsuzs for several
days.
Tnev finally got al idea that tie
oil management did not propose TO
got b2ck the property, and after
whils they did not watch very
close, and nike Duffy, the foreman
ot tho cid management, slipped up
tkare ono day and got possession.
He baracaded the door and held
, the WORKS.
A fsw weeks ago the Holman
| crowd again jumped the clalna, and
now held it. Yester lay, hearing
that Duffy was marshalling crowd
to ro;ake it, men we're sent up With
rifles and instructions to hold the
tunnel.
The Holman people claim that
no assessment work has been done
fer over a year, and that the Woik
which the North Carson people
claim Was done, was performed
outside the limits of the claim in
the lower tunnel.
The case will probably be de-
ciied in thu courts at an early
date.
The cause of the activity about
the place is claimed to be the dis
coyery OF a rich ledge in the upper
tunnel, which carries good milling
ore. This stoy is that Dahl, who
has been working on the mine for
some wears as owner. found ledge
which had been covered up by
parties who had previously worked
there. Dahl saw that it had been
| opened and covered, and surmised
that something queer was up. lie
had purchased the mine on the
showing Of ledge further to the
North.
Ii appears that 3 miner who had
found and covered the second ledge
told Holman, Of Virginia, hence
the jumping. SAN Francisco CAPT
tai Is behind the Holman crowd,
and they say that they will 1evel-
ope the mine.

see the naw management win, as

The young officers who had accom-

do in a hand to-hand struggle with two
robust Americans. But the struggle
was of short duration, for the young
Mexicans soon surrendered.
The ranchero gave feeble call for
help, which some of the men-servants
quickly answered.
A sort of melee commenced, that was

It did not require much time to reach
the grove pointed out by lula Velas-
quez, and where they found their
horses ready for them, as Zela, the
maid, had said They soon mounted
and rode away, with the shouts of
Mexican soldiers, trying to find their
route of escape, ringing in their ears.
When at last their trail was discov-
cred the Mexicans gave them hot
chase for short distance; but as they
got near Juarez's camp they abandoned
the pursuit. Leo and his comrades
dashed into camp, where the lovely
Tula was surrendered to her lover,
Ezualdo, and the prisoners to Juarez
himself, who found in Colonel Fer
nandez a foe he had long desired to

however, he saw lula Velasqnez and

And love the Golden-rod too-for it's gold,
And because through autumn it fingers,
And offers more wealth than his hands can

To the grasp of the poor mans fingers.

The darlingest daughter of summer,
Whose heart with the suns yellow gold over

And whose bushes SO well become her.

The Mayflowers know that l mean them;
And the Golden-rod surely my choice will be,
With the sweet Brier-rose between them.
You see I'm impartial. I've no way but this

For the Mayfower, the Wild Rose and the

The loss Of life would have been greater
than it was, but the steamer st. Louis
was just approaching the Corona and
aided in picking up those who were not
killed. The boilers blew downward and
knocked the whole bottom out of the boat,
which was in midstream.
The Corona was built at Cincinnati and
was worth $4,000, having recently had
$4,000 in repairs put on her. She was

Mrs. Robertson says when the Corona
arrived opposite False River Landing,
about sixteen miles below Bayou Sara,
one of her boilers exploded. tearing the

She sank twice, but luckily she was
picked up and escaped with only few
bruises on her limbs.
