RICH FINDS REPORTED.
CONTINUED IMPROVEMENT Of THE
MINES NORTH OF MOJAVE.
New Ledges Being Found and Activity
Shown at Various Points-A New
Find Near the Old Cerro
Gordo Mines.

The gold mines north OF Mojave con-
tinue to improve. Last Wednesday four
men took out fifteen ounces with dry
washer. The gold is worth $1S per
ounce. 1t is all coarse, little being
found finer than wheat grains. Many
pieces are found worth from So to $6 or
So each piece. One piece of quartz and
gold was found as big as hens egg /;
half the mass is gold. There is but a
thin layer OF earth and sand covering
the bed rock on which the gold is
found.
On Thursday prospector found a
fine looking quartz ledge short dis
tance above the placer ground. This
may prove to be the mother ledge from
which all the placer gold comes. The
man brought sack OF the ore to the
stage station in Redrock canon on
Thursday evening, and @. Mulholland,
who makes this report, brought Gam
pie with him to the city yesterday
afternoon.
A large number of miners are now
working at the new camp, and more
sre Fastening there every day. 1t is
the old experience over agein--where
miners find money easily they spend
it lavishly-and the camps at Redrock
begin to show some features of extrav-
agance that wore very familiar in old
times. At Goler the placer claims are
turning out good deal of gold also.
Redrock is about 25 miles north from
Mojave, on the road to OWENS valley
Goler is few miles farther distant,
and about 10 miles east. Near the old
Cerro Gordo mines, east from OWENS
lake, an extraordinary rich ledge was
struck, q few weeks ago. The ore carries
about 40 per cent lead, go or 70 ounces
silver,s and a great deal OF gold. Many
assays chow over $1,000 gold per ton.
Solid pieces of' gold, with from $5 up
ward too$l0, SIS, $40, or even more, are
found. One hundred dollars was offered,
and refused, for one of the pieces found
few DAYS, ago. The lucky prospectors
are opening up the ledge, and appear
ances justify the belief that they have a
fortune before them.
A few months ago two men from Los
Angeles. one named Lane, the other
Armstrong, bought a silver mine at
Darwin. Inyo dounty. The price of the
mine was $4,000. Already there is ore
enough out to pay the purchase price of
the mine. Last Tuesday alone four car
loads of ore were sent to San Francisco
that would net nearly half what was
paid for the mine. There is ore enough
in sight in the mine to realize snug
fortune for the owners, and the vein
gives all evidence of being extensive.
1t was certainly lucky purchase.

this thing to be done? True 1T is that
tie saloonist, or the man who
pours out for so much money

his victim, is the one who gives his

or neighbors, gives his neighbors drink.

bottle to his own lips with one hand,
but by his example, his Influence, by
his life, helps with the other hand lift
the bottle to his nelghbor's lips also,
and he gives his neighbor drink.

GIVING THE NEIoHBoR DRINK

Those for Whom Divine Wrath Is Being
stored Up.
WOE unto him that givcth his neightor
drink - Hab. ii. Is
Woe is pronounced against the per-
son who gives his neighbo drink of
the cup of INVESTIGATION. Not against
the one who gives his neighbor to
drink of the cup of cola water-the
cup that will satisfy his thirst-but
against him who gives drink of that
cup which, instead of satisfying the
thirst only aggravates (which in
stead of qucnching only sets on fire
the demon OF passion.
Who is this mans neighbor? Every
man who stands before the bar of the
saloon and receives over that bar of
Intoxicating cup, is his neighbour every
fair maiden who sips her glass of
wine, is this mans neighbor: every
man who lifts his hand against his fell
bowman and strikes him to the ground
as the outcome of his INVESTIGATION, is
this mans neighbor; every young man
who takes his first glass of liquor is
this mans neighbor. No matter where
any of these are, whether within the
bounds of this land of liberty or in the
uttermost parts of the earth. The dark
nations of Africa, into whose midst
these United States are consta ntly
pouring stream of intoXicants, these
nations are this mans neighbors: ma
tions whose kings and chiefs and peo-
pies are pleading with us to send no
more of the cursed stuff. My neighbor,
your neighbor! Oh, what a sweeping
term,
Against the man who commits the
sin of placing the intoxicating cup to
the lips of his ueighbor, the woe of
God is pronounced. He has been put
ting the cup If ruin to mis- neighbor $
lips. and now the cup of Gods woe. the
cup of Gods wrath, the cup of Gods
fury. will be poured out upon his soul.
This mans hand has been turned
against his fellow-men. now the hand
OF God the almighty right hand of
God. is to he turned against him. All
TIE woes of an eternal misery are pro-
nOunced against the soel that rebels
against God, that DESTROYS its~fellow-
beings. that aids the great enemy Of
TIE soul.
We read that no drunlIard is to enter
the kingdom of Heaven. The gates Of
that city are eternally shut against the
tjrunkard. Are we 20 suppose then
that these gates are open TO the drunk
ard-maltcr? Is the drunkard to be shut
out and the drunkard-makcr to be let
in?
Woe unto him that giveth his neigh
bor drink" But who is the man that
gives his neighbor drink? We are all
quick TO say that the saloon-keeper is
the man; but let us not forget that
there are multitudes of souls who have
never touched drop of liquor, those
who never held a glass of it nor bot
tie of it in their hands, who are just as
certainly giving their neighbors to
drink as any saloon-keeper that stands
behind the bar-only they do it in a
different way. Who are the drunkard-

ANTI-sEMITlsM IN SWITZERLAND
A Law FOrbidding the slaughter of Cattle
by the jewish Method.

The new law just adopted in Swift.
zerland which forbids the slaughter OF
cattle by the Jewish method has nat
urally caused the greatest indignation
and CONSERVATION among the 5000 or
o. 600 inhabitants of the Hebrew faith
The law is to this effect: THE killing
of animals without their being stunned
before blood is drawn is forbidden,
without exception, whatever be tho
me thod employed" Not a word in this
enactment alludes directly to the Jews,
but its object was avowedly anti-Sem.
itic. Promoted by societies which os
tensibly have no other purpose than to
prevent cruelty to animals, it is de-
ciared to be really the outcome of an
anti-Semitic agitation imported from
Germany. The victory was chiefly
gained in the German cantons, where
Jewish trade competition is most Sc
verely felt-Zurich, Berne. Aargau and
Thuryau Those OF Latin kinship-

burg-sided with the cause of popular
liberty. Only about half the popula-
tion-300, 600 out of 500, 00O-went to
the poll. Even OF this number it is
supposed that but "a small percentage
realized what they were voting for.
For twenty years an agitation has ex-
listed on the continent for the prohibit
ton of the Jewish method OF slaugh-
tering animals. on the ground of its
alleged cruelty. The movement met
with cold reception in the Berlin par
lament. In SaXony it hal better sue
cess. There the Jewish "shechita"
has been declared illegal by an order
OF the minister of the interior. The
agitation next spread to Switzerland.
ne German societies for the protection
of animals induced the municipal gov
ernments OF AargIu and Berne TO issue
a similar order, Uut the national coun-
ell revoked it. The cantonal fathers
tn N carried their case before the fed
eral assembly which confirmed the
action OF the council Thereupon the
agitators awaited themselves of the ref
erendum. 1t is worthy Of note that
the anti-SeInites found their warmest
support among the Lutheran part OF
the population, but were opposed by
the Roman Catholics ". Y. Post.

THE POISONOUS CUP.

Death-poisons lie;
But drink you must:
Then drink and surely die,

Upon the gohlet's brink:
Strong youth, fair maiden,
Stop one moment, think
Before you drain
The foaming contents up.
All pause and look,
There's venom in the cup.
You may not see,
But oh it's lurking there;
All blushing, bids you taste.
The young and fair
Are victims first 'twould lure,
Then turn aside.
Oh. touch mott taste not;
From this goblet widel
You may not hear, but demons dark
Hang on the goblet's brink,
Howling and hideous;
Nor do they shriM aghast
II first their victims do not bend;
But wait and watch
They know the bitter end.
As the restless moth
Around the candle bright.
II fingers still and fiutters near.
Till soon the treacherous light

Too plain is seen its sad. sad lot
