/ neal AND GENERAL NEWS.

was passed.
More location notices have been re-
ceived from Osceola this year at the
Recorders office than from the rest of
the county combined.
Rills have been introduced in both
branches of the Legislature providing
for the repeal of the State Board of
Assessors and Equalization Act.
Lew Carpenter and W. J. Peters,
who left for Ferguson district two
months ago returned Sunday last.
They report everything down that way
dull in the extreme.
One of Ely's characters was heard
to say while looking at the flags at
half mast: "The great men are 60
ing. Blaine, Butler and Hayes have
gone and [ don't feel well myself"
Geo. Merger having got through
putting up ice for others is now en-
gagged in putting up like fine lot for
B. M. Pearlman. Most of the blocks
crowd 800 pounds.
Earnest Baker essayed to skate on
Main Street a few days ago, but scored
failure. He took violent tumble
receiving a cut over the right eye that
took three stitches to close up. His
right eye is closed from repairs.
We see by the Journal of the 28th
ult. that Assemblyman Sol. Hip had
arrived at Reno on his way to San
Francisco. It is reported that he
has been joined by I'll. I'll. Brown and
that they go below on business con-
nected with the sale of the Joana
mine.
Some one needing it in his business
got away with five sack of coal one
night last week that was piled up
against Julius Rangers residence. He
only asks that the party taking it call
around some black and dark night
and return the sacks.
1t is MT just exactly right to say
anything about it, but the somewhat
remarkable fact was brought out in a
FIVE cornered conversation the other
evening that White Pine county
school marms can't sing. They were
passed in panoramic review for de-
cade and a half back and not to ex-
ceed three could be recalled who could
cross the first bar, while it was con-
coded that there are others that sing
like the mavis nor envy the night
ingale's song.
A party consisting of John Berry,
John Isaacson and G. G. Miller pulled
out Tuesday for Arizona. They first
60 to Osceola for the purpose of tax
ing on dry washer. The party will
be piloted to some point near Mineral
Park, Mohaye county, by Mr.. Miller,
who claims to know where there is
gold galore Mineral Park will be
their postofice address for two weeks,
but further than this they refuse to
talk. But few things are more tan
talizing than mystery.
John Thompson, brother of Mrs.
w. L. Davis, and compositor in the
NEWS office before it's removal to Ely,
sends from New Orleans copy of the
Times-Democrat giving Illustrations
of the Linotype Qine-o-type) machine,
the remarkable invention of Otto Mer-
ganthaler, which is revolutionizing
the art of type setting. The machine
does the work of six compositors who
set type at the rate 1000 ems an hour,
provided, of course, that the operator
is lively one. Young Thompson is
running linotype in the Crescent
City.
Reports have been received here
from number of sources to the eff
feet that the first payment has been
made on the Joana mine, but at this
writing it would seem that one and
all are premature. G.. A. Corenke,
writing from Eureka to Mcdonald 81
Harris of Ely, under date of January
28th, says: "I was just informed
that the first payment had been made
on the Watson mine, etc." He wrote
two letters to the same effect, which
is next to no information at all. Two
other letters have been received from
different points which contain just
about as much nutriment.
