An ther Rich Strike Rcpdrtcl

Genoa Courier William Xirn is ex.
hibiting specimens of decomposed quartz,
lousy with gold, taken from his claim
northeast OF Peter Anderson's ranch in
Pine Nut Otto Schultz Of Carson has
been prospecting with great persever-
ance for several years and we hope has
struck ledge that will reward him for
his labor 1t is stated that some OF the
assays so as high as S63, geo a ton. A
few tons of this ore would satisfy an
ordinary newspaper man. Urn was in
town yesterday and said, Il have the
California bank in my pocket" The
specimens he showed here and in Carson
were knocked oil the surface groupings
of what he claims is an immense ledge.
He claims that he scraped up two pans
Of dirt from around the ledge and turned
out about one dollar in gold. Zirn had
formerly taken out large quantity of
what he claims is rich ore at point
seven hqndred feet from where he Sc
cured the rich specimens.
For years rich gold rock has been
found in Red Canyon and Pine Nut, and
one of these days the mother ledge will
be brought to light The wonder is that
capitalists have not taken hold and
fastened the development.

Work at the new smelter is progress
ing fairly well. Stone masons are busy
putting in substantial dust chambers and
ilue, and the work of throwing up the
grade to the ore bins continues. Foun-
dations for two ore bins are ready and
forty-6ve feet of the main building is up
and covered in. When finished this build.
ing will be forty feet wide by 100 feet
long. The south half of the building
will not be raised until the boilers and
stacks are placed which will be done as
quickly as possible. A small boarding
house is finished ready for occupancy
and an office and scale room is in course
of construction. The course of the pro.
jected tramway line from the works to
west point and the Day mine is altered
so as to run almost straight from the
works to the point instead of running up
and skirting the foot hills Just west of
town. This it is found will shorten the
line somewhat and make the grade
better.

The town ordinances have now been
in force week, but the appearance of
Main street is not particularly affected
thereby, owing probably to the late
storm and mud resulting therefrom
Chief of Police Turner is making ar
rangements to have the streets all put in
good shape and when it is done this time
they should be kept so. The easiest
way to get along under the new ordl-
nances is to see that all observe them,
without exception, then there will be no
excuse for man ignoring them, simply
because his neighbor does.

adroitly using the sahec. The Major
addressed his remarks particularly to
his old friend Coward, who seemed
quite disinclined to learn in military
precision; in fact, the master lectured
the fellow quite severely and urgent

Tho Blue and GRAY.

A circular letter Of invitation has
been issued by the managers Of the
Blue and Gray reunion Io De held in
Chicago in '93. The following is an
extract:
Comrades, the guns Of the late
war fred their last blasts twenty-six
years ago. The bitterness engendered
by the strife has had more than a
quarter Of century to be sweetened,
the swords have rusted, the bayonets
are pruning hooks, the cannons are
hung in our church steeples, to call
US to worship that Being who arbi-
trated for us, and the bomb-shells roll
across the sward. the playthings of a
child.
peace is declared, and the words
Of our great commander should be
needed, Let US have peace Let Us
show to our children and to the world
that we old soldiers who wore the
blue or the gray know the war is
over.
"Let us meet in one grand en-
campment at Chicago in 1898, under
one flag, the grand and glorious ban
ner OF our country-yes, our coun-
try, our union, cemented by the most
precious blood that ever flowed in the
veins Of cavalier or roundhead-and
talk over the scenes and incidents Of
the days Of 1861 to 1865, inclusive.
Upon the shores Of Lake Michigan
beside the great city Of the North
west We ask YOU, comrades of the
blue, we ask you, comrades of the
gray, to meet us there, to talk over
the mighty events of those days.
''We know that God has arbitrated
for us, we know that He has made US
one. Let US hold out both hands to
each other, and show to the world
that to-day every one Of us would fol-

Decay of Catholic Nations.

I admit that Catholic nations are de-
caying. The sixteenth century was an
age of protest. The seventeenth cen
tury was one of doubt. The eighteenth
century was one of denial; and in the
nineteenth century God is ostracised.
Yes, those nations are decayiug; and
they deserve to decay. I am Catholic.
I would die this moment for my re-
ligion, for religion that is not worth
dying for is not worth living up to.
But still say these nations deserve to
decay. I have travelled through Europe,
and saw more true religion in Queens
town in six weeks than saw on the
continent in as many months. When
Catholic nations fall, they fall far.
