Eureka weekly sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1887-1902, 1889-12-21

Albert Gallatin OF Sacramento has a
communication in the Lassen Mail OH
bulls running at large out of season
that should be read by every stock
a He says; "My loss on COWS,
caused by calves dropping out of sea
son during late and early Winter
months has been in excess of all the
other losses combined"
The subject has at various times
been discussed by the Nevada Live
Stock Association, but nothing has
ever been done to abate the nuisance.
Many Of the ranchers are not fixed to
shut up their bulls. and as a conse.
quence they run with the cows the
year round, which makes the percent.
age OF calves dropped during the late
Fall and Winter months very large,
and it is almost sure death to an old
COW or two year-old heifers to suckle g
calf when she has all she can do tc
rustic food for herself. 1t is a subject
that should be thoroughly discussed
by cattlemen and some conclusion ar
rived at.

Diamond Splitting.

The diamond has a grain OIL cleav-
age plane, the same as most mineral
or crystalline substances and hence it
is possible to split Or divide one into
two or more parts. Sometimes a
large piece is removed at once from a
gem by splitting, but it is a process
attended with much risk. To ac-
complish this matter. the stone is
carefully studied and its line of cleav-
age ascertained.
1t is placed in hardened cement, in
the proper position, and the sharp
edge OF a steel chisel resembling a ra-
zor is carefully adjusted so that the
division will be at the point desired
and a small rap with a hammer is
given it. Perhaps m more costly
blow can be struck in any mechanical
work than this. for in manipulating a
large diamond, ii it is unskilfully
given, a gem OF several thousand dol
lars value may be spoiled.

sheen IA EASTERN Nevada.

A correspondent of the Reno Ga
zette, writing from Wells, gives this
information regarding the sheep in
terest in Eastern Nevada: There is
one thing that is patent to the most
casual observer, and that is that stock
cattle and horses are gradually being
susperceded by the sheep interest OF
Eastern Nevada. 1t will not be long
until the large bands of horses and
cattle that have roamed over all East
ern Nevada as free commoners for the
past thirty years or more, will only be
known as a matter of history, and that
cattle raising will be chiefly confined
to the home ranches, and hereafter
Eastern Nevada will be noted for its
immense focks of sheep, as it has
been in the past for its immense
bands OF cattle and horses.

There is a well authenticated rumor
in mining circles to the effect that the
Watson gold mine at Robinson Dis
triet has been sold to an English com
pany. Captain Plummer OF Montana
is said to have negotiated the purchase.
The figure we hear most frequently
mentioned is $4,000. As the story
runs Mr.. Watson refused to bond the
property but gave Captain Plummer
the refusal OF it, provided he came with
SO much money in a certain number
Of days. Ii is believed the Captain
will " get there" on time. The claim
set up by Mrs. Walcott Of San Fran
cisco TO n half interest in the property
may exert a discouraging influence
and defeat the sale. There is talk
that the lady has secured the services
Of Col. A. G.. Ellis TO fight her legal
battle in the courts. The Colonel is a
finished lawyer and hard fighter. 1t
is the old story. Every rich mine on
this Coast must be litigated.

The S. f. Report in speaking of the
resignation OF w. c. Price, says: Mr..
Price has been prominently identified
with Tuscarora District, both as super
intendent, shareholder and mine
owner, since 1881. When he assumed
charge, all the mines except the
Navajo were closed down. Under his
superintendency new bodies OF ore
we're found in that mine, in the
North Belle Isle and many others, and
it is largely through his direction that
the camp has become N OF the most
productive on the Coast, and is now in
a condition to prosper. He has re-
signed at this stage because he needs
rest and a vacation, but says he will
retain large interests in several OF the
| mines.

new find is supposed to be a continual
ton Of the old Gila ledge which proved
so rich in early days. There we're at
least three good fortunes made out OF
the ella. Mr.. Clark, Harry Barnes
and John Il. Magee realized each
about $3.50, 900 from the working Of the
high grade ores. Ex-Governor Adams

Last Saturday evening United States
Marshal Moore arrested William
Whalen, general manager Of the st,
Peters Gold and Silver Mining Co., at
Alpha, this county, on an order OF ar
rest issued out Of the U. s.. Court at
Carson. The arrest was the outcome
Of a suit instituted against Whalen bv
Charles Lacey Plumb Of Chicago, nj.
In his affidavit Plumb accuses Whalen
OF fraud, inasmuch as Whalen caused
Plumb to give up a lucrative position
in Chicago upon promises and repre-
sensations that Whalen was the owner
and holder OF a majority Of the stock
in the st. Peters Mining Company ;
that it was a valuable property, and
that he would give Plumb 500 per
month as a salary for the first wear
and $3.50 per month as salary for the
second year, besides allowing him so
per cent commission on sales. Plumb
AYERS that before accepting the posi-
ton he visited and inspected the
property, took samples, etc, from the
mine and mill, and had the same as
sayed, and that the result obtained
was $1,000 per ton; that thereupon
he gave up his position in Chicago and
accepted the position rendered him by
Whalen; that he placed some $1,000
OF stock on the market; that since
visiting the mine he had learned that
the samples of ore, were manipulated
nnaa ~ mazda Tor bic o,A.s.1 Ix-uCa.
that he was deceived thereby, and
through the representations and
manipulated samples he deceived his
friends into buying the stock. He
now claims damages for the sum OF
$25, 900. On Wednesday last Whalen
was admitted 10 bail by giving a bond
for 5000, with X. Sadler and A.
Jackson as sureties.
Mr.. Whalen asserts hal the whole
affair is a blackmailing job.
