A Ladder for Hines

Grass Valley Telegraph: Melville
Atwood, the well-known mining en-
gineer and an ex-resident Of Grass
Valley, but now Of San Francisco, has
invented a chain ladder for use in
mining shafts to take the place of
wooden ladders in ordinary use. The
sides Of the new ladders are iron
chains Of three-eights iron, and the
rounds are half-inch gas pipe fourteen
inches long and fastened firmly in
place. The ladder is fastened at inter-
walls to the sides Of the shaft, 80 that
it is quite firm. In blasting the lower
end can be removed so that there is
no destruction from flying rock. The
ladders come in lengths OF so feet, and
the price is 40 cents per foot.

Hint to the Wise.

We are all talking about free an un-
limited coinage and a new line of rail-
road through the State to the Pacific
shore as the objects We most desire for
the advancement OF our mining inter-
ests. The first We may acquire by
using in connection with II sister
silver producing States every effort to
promote, but the second We will prob
ably not live TO see unless We bestir
ourselves to prove that we are alive to
its Importance and can furnish q fair
quota Of mineral that will help to
build 1t. In this matter it is import
ant to understand that we must be
suitably represented at the Chicago
worlds Columbian Exposition.

Sheriff Ben Paine, OF White Pine
county, arrived in Carson last week in
quest of requisition papers for the ar
rest of w. b. Campbell, under indict-
ment in White Pine county for cattle
stealing, and now in California. Camp
bell was for many years a prominent
citizen and leading society man of
White Pine county. He was first de-
tected stealing calves from his mother
in-law. This might have been over
looked, but ne grew holder and pro.
ceeded to rob brother Masons and
Odd Fellows, hence the indictments.
Sheriff Paine thinks he has his mans
present whereabouts located.-Carson

An Arfzona Iaeadsns.

Tombstone Epitaph: A Mexican
caravan came in to-day. The leader
was a senorita and her youngest Off
spring. The saddle blanket was red,
the horse grey, the parasol black and
the dress a crimson. Next came q
cart drawn by three burros. Behind
this came a struggling lot OF young
sters on burros. When opposite the
Postofice they saluted Tim Griffith,
who was hauling a dead horse down
the street by means OF a rope tied to
its neck, the other end of which was
tied to the wagon. The Mexican ag-
gregation supposed it was q funeral.
One Of the party told another Mexican
who resides n Tombstone that in
Mexico it is believed that the animals
are buried in the United States with
much ceremony.

Here is q peculiar advertisement Of
160 years ago, which indicates adifer-
ent social condition Of things from
what We have now:
Just arrived from Great Britain, and
are to be sold on board the ship Alice
and Elizabeth, Capt. Pain commander,
several likely WEIGH and English
servant men, most Of them tradesmen.
Whoever inclines to purchase any of
them may agree with said commander
or Thomas Noble, merchant at Mr..
Hazards in New York, where also is
to be sold several negro girls and a
negro boy, and likewise good Cheshire
cheese.-New York Gazette, Septem-
Der 4 to IL, 1872.
We do not suppose that those SER
wants who where sold" were slaves
in the same sense in which the
several negro girls and a negro boy"
were held as slaves. Probably they
we're sold to pay their passage across,
having made some engagement Of that
sort with the ship that carried them
over. They were probably not chat
tells on quite the level OF Cheshire
cheese.-N. Y. Independent.

VAUDEVILLE Mont Telegraph:
Mayor Hall of VAUDEVILLE, manager
Of the Alice mine, who has just re-
turned from Salt Lake City, informs
the Telegraph that unless the down

just like any other industry and must
be made to pay no man will operate
at a loss. II silver had remained at
the price Of a year ago, the Alice
would have paid stockholders a divi-
dend. but as it has been they have not
received any return. There are some
mines that can still work to a profit

ores, but We who are working seventeen

suit will be disastrous to our enter

Marbles an exchange: "Here's to

some good for his town to do. No use

worth Her weight I'm Gold.

At American Flag, in southern
California, lives an old woman Of So
years who In her early youth had a
high valuation placed upon her by her
church. Her fathers brother, Jesus
Castro, fell in love with her, and she
reciprocated his affection. None of
the priests would perform the cere-
mony. Castro offered one priest to
give as much as 5000 to the church
il the marriage knot could be tied.
This, however, was considered too lit
tie. Finally it was agreed that II
Castro would give the girls weight il
gold they should be made man and
wife. He did so and level regretted
the price he paid for his wife.

He walked into the store and found
Mr.. Wyatt sitting back Ia his chair haI =

Trump asked him II he had been build
ing Ere in the furnace. Receiving an
answer In the negative he Informed him
Of the smoke. Box No. 3 was struck
Immediately and the companies promptly
responded. The fire was confined to the
cellar. AS 1t was feeding on boxes OF
paper and light wood. and the cellar en-
frances we're small IL wac very hard to
hght. Smoke poured out In volumes and
the store room was soon full Of Il

Before Q o'clock the ere was extlr-
guished without putting water into the

The Gre Is supposed to have been
caused by lighted candle which

an hour before the alarm was given. It

timated until Jan examination Is

slightly damaged Both losses are fully
covered By insurance.
