School Districts Tor tho County.

The County Board of Examiners have
decided to lay off tho county into school
districts SO as to make each district in.
cludo but one white and one colorcd
school. The purpose is to make "dis-
tricp' and "schoop identical rs far as
possible, and thus tho trustees of each
district would como from among the pa
irons of the respective schools through
out the county. 1t is proposed to cstab-
lsh the districts so as to make them con-
form as nearly as possible to the present
school centres, laying them of by natural
boundaries, such as water courses, public
roads, farm lines, &c. And this is to be
done without any additional expense to
the county The School Commissioner
is assigned the task of gathering informa-
tion as lic visits the schools and designate
the boundaries of each district, with ref
crcnce to the convenience of the patrons
of the respective schools and the aceessi-
hility of tho various school centres. For
such service he will be compensated only
| out of tho salary which he is now allowed
by law, which shall not he enlarged for
amy services rendered on this account.
After he gathers all tho information rcla-
tive to the school centres and designatcs
the different districts according to the
best of his Judgment, he is to report his
action to the Board of Examiners whose
decision in the matter will be final
Three trustees will then be appointed for
each district, who, coming from the pa
irons of the respective schools, will have
the immediate oversight of their own
school. School Commissioner S. p.
Stribling started out Tuesday of this
week to visit the schools Of the county
and to establish such districts as i'm his
Judgment are required, after careful ex-
animation of the various locations and
school centres.

This company, known as the Consolidated
Carson River Dredging Company, was incor-
porated the 18th day of March, 1888, under
the laws of the state of Nevada, owning seven
teen virgin claims of 1880 feet each of the
Carson river; claims and titles located under
the laws of the United States.
This property is known to contain rich de-

concentrator attached to the amalgamator,
which will save all the sulphurets of gold and
silver These two machines are guaranteed to
do the work claimed for them, and the cost of
running the plant for twenty-four hours will be
under 800. 1t is claimed that four hundred
cubic yards Tor about six hundred tons) of
material can be raised every ten hours AS the
assays run anywhere from So to S120 per ton,
it is believed that the earnings of the company
will be something enormous, and that it will
enable the company to pay from twenty-five
cents to one dollar per share monthly, in
dividends.
Recently, 27 tons were raised and milled, and
s666 90 was taken from it, only 60 per cent. OF
the material being worked. The balance of 40
per cent. would have been more than $780,
making altogether over 81 200 from 81 tons, or
over $40 per ton. OF course, if 600 tons in
ten hours were raised with this average it
would be something enormous, more than
ought to be expected. But to put it at the
lowest, say So per ton, the income of the COM
pany would be 5000 per day, only working 10
hours. OF course, if work was continued for "a
hours, the income would be doubled and would
reach the enormous amount of $4,000 per
day, with a yearly income of 81 800, 900 upon
a capital of s1,O0O,O00. Thus the reader can

The above is what the officers of the company
think they will be able to pay but III this should
be divided by four, it would still make an in

worth while to take Il reasonable amount of

time no private stock is for sale that which is
now being sold is treasury stock, and is for the
purpose of completing the present dredge and

10000 shares of this stock were recently placed
in my hands to dispose of for this purpose, and
a considerable amount of it has already been
taken.
The directors of the company are all good men,
and are interested in their work. All the stock
is registered by the FARMERS LOAN AND TRUST
Co., of New York. Parties wishing to invest in
this enterprise should do so Immediately as in
all probability, the small amount of stock which
we have for sale will remain upon the market
but for a few days only, after the above facts
is no use of asking the question, ,Why if it is so
good thing, do not the people in New y ork take
IT." The answer to this question is that it has
been taken in New York City very largely and
several people here have as high as from 3 900
to 1000 shares. But the people largely inter

stock they feel able to- and it has therefore been
determined to sell the number OF shares above
mentioned in small lots.
The present price of So rs per share will be
continued until June Goth. No less than ten
shares will be issued. Orders may be sent at
