TIE Aurora Mines.

Private letters from John Niedy
of Aurora to a citizen in Hawthorne
convey the cheerful news that $500,
600 has been raised in London for
the purpose Of resuming work in the
Con. Esmeralda mines of Aurora.
We are informed that is the purpose
of the Company to run tunnel from
the lime kiln, distance of a mile
and half, and thereby drain the
mines distance of several hundred
feet below their present deepest
works.
That this work will prove the ex-
istence of large and paying ore bodies
is almost certain. Mr.. Ann, the
director of the company, will arrive
about May LIST, and he will personally
superintend the work. In case the
developments should warrent it, a
mill will be erected on tie ground to
be run by electricity transmitted
from the Walker river, survey for
which mas already been made. Speed

AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
Major Gardner Locates q Vein of
Magnetic Iron.

Within the past few days Major
Gardner has discovered an immense
/, deposite of magnetic iron in The VI
entity of Pre- Nut.
He says that he regards the dep6s>
tie as practically inexhaustible, and
that it runs about 80 per cent. metal.
The ore, some of which he has
brought to this city. is highly mag
netlc, and needles and small pieces
of steel placed near it fly to it at
once.
Yesterday he went out with his
sou and completed locations. Large
quantities Of the ore are in sight.
and the find Is likely to prove Of
great value, as there is nothing like
it of any size on this coast.
If he can lay down pig iron at the
V. & T. shops cheaper than it can be
landed from the East, it will be of
immense benefit to this section.

as great an error as to call Carson
He'll, although in each instance only
some ten miles intervene.

but bear to the east past Smiths
ranch at the head of Buckeye Canyon
and two miles above you will soon
find 100 men at work or I am greatly
mistaken. The trouble existing be-
tween the hostile factions has been
settled, each party signing an iron
clad agreement, wherein a compel.
ent man is to be employed to carry
on systematic operations this season.
This in itself is of impo lance as a
number of men will be employed as
soon as the Stow is off the ground.
1t is to early yet for miners to 90
in, as the canyons are packed with |
snow, but the red shirts and over
shirts will swarm over there this
Summer.
Hereafter, in speaking of the new
camp, call it Lynn, because that's its
name, and don't you forget it, for
records saylso, also.

lightweight loaves were enacted in
England very scvereupon the bakers:
and to avoid the penalties the Gus.

GATH AND HIS PEN NAME.
The Funny Meaning of the Curious
Nom de PLUMB.


About everybody in the newspa-
per reading world knows Gath, .
but It is doubtful II moro than a few
people know the significance Of the
nom de plume. Prof. Roth, having
IN charge the Catholic educational
exhibit Of Philadelphia at the Co
lumbian exposition, has let the cat
ont Of the bag.
The feline escape was made few
days ago during the time the con.
gress Of librarians were holding SEES
sions. George Alfred Townsend has
adaughter who is much interested
in educational matters, and she was
here in attendance ut the meetings,
and was, Of course, taking in the
fair. Among o lot OF other people
she was one day introduced to Prof.
Roth.
ssGlad to know you" said the
genial old Irishman, heartily. II
am particularly glad to know you,
as ] know your father SO we'll. /
have known him for a long time. /
am delighted to make the acquaint-
ance Of his daughter.
In the general talk the question
of how Mr.. Townsend came to choose
the titleof Gatharose. The daughter
being appealed TO declared she had
no idea how herfather decided upon
such a nom de plume.
why, it is simple enough, " ex.
claimed Prof. Roth, looking at the
journalists daughter with q quiet
chuckle. There is a C. you see;
that stands for George. Then
there is "a for Alfred, and the sT'
is for Townsend, Of course.
But the n z said the group in a
chorus, as the professor hesitated;
what is the 'H' for2''
why that represents where he is
going for the lies he has told, . said
the professor Chicago Mail.
