Silver Star Camp.

The Enterprise publishes the follow
| ing relative to the Silver Star camp
There are at present 1870 men in the
camp, who support two saloons, and
some Of these men are idle The most
of the claims are being worked by
lease holders, and while some of these
are making money. they are the eX-
ception rather thar the rule Rollan
Cults, a former Comstocker. is one of
the lease-holders. The men who
are prospecting are Ranch. who has
the Mary Owens. on the New Party,
which adjoins the Brown; and the
Nelson brothers on the SNOWFALL. The
reasons that lease holders are not as a
rule prospering at Silver Star is that
the ore is of comparatively low grade.
and they having limited capital have
much TO contend with.
Prices at Silver Star are exhorhi-
tant 1t costs So 80 per ton TO mill
ore in lots less than 50 tons, md s. in
lots of 90 tons or more, and few Of the
lease holders can wait until they have
accumulated iris amount 1t cost
from 81 80 to 81 per ton TO transport
this ore from the mines to the mills
There being no roads, it all has to be
packed on mules.
Lumber costs $40 per thousand
There is plenty of water on the east
side of the mountain 10 run the
Douglass Compauys mill, but the
Douglass Company controls it all.
Thus it will be seen that leasers, after
paying ten per cent. for their mines
have much 70 contend with.

A Reception Awaiting Him.

A married man of Carson who was
in San Francisco not long ago, wrote
two letters, one to Il woman in the city
of San Francisco and one to his wife
in the city Of Carson. Then he got
them mixed in the wrong envelopes.
He isn't back from below yet, but the
chances are that when he gets home
he will find his spouse ready to go off
in some quiet spot and talk the mat
ter over. The lady has already
shown the letter to several of her
neighbors and that she has also re-
hersed the opening overture shows
she is getting ready for him.
Some Of his friends have wired him

ECONOMIC SUGGESTIONS.
Appeals" Plan for Benafitting
the Capitol Square.

Now that the baimy weather Incl
dental to Spring has set in, the appeal
offers few suggestions for beautify
ing the Capitol Square.
Every morning one sees State off
GERS prowling about the flower beds
picking violets for their button holes
and from all we know sending few
| bunc es now and then to their lady
friends. We offer as suggestion
that each State officer select few
hundred feet of flower bed to take
| care of, and wind up the season with
a flower show with suitable prizes foi
the best kept bed, etc.
It would give the State officers much
needed exercise and give look of ag-
ricultural activity to the Capitol
square not seen there for years. The
Governor could NOW the lawn, the
Secretary Of State could rake the
grass, the Treasurer could run the
flower beds on the sunny side and the
rest conld run the sprinklers and
wheelbarrows. and strangers could go
away with the impression that We
were an active enterprising people.
Voters like to see the dust fly when a
new administration gets on deck and
this is the way to do it.
While the State officers are working
about the Square the Deputies could
sit on the steps and urge them on to
renewed industry by INDUCING in
cheering and complimentary remarks
about their work, such as:
Your moving is ont OF sight Gov
ernor."
That's the way to pitch hay Mr..
Howell"

Our Grand Climate.

Rev. Dr. Case of San Francisco in
a sermon recently said the average
life of woman Of easy virtue was
four years. This is probably correct
in California, but in Nevada many of
the fallen sisterhood who came to this
State prior to the Bonanza discovery,
are still in the ring and bid fair to
continue in evidence for SOME years
to core. The wonderful climate Of Ne
vada is what enables everybody to
defy the whips and scorns OF time.

ROBBERY AT PEouAMlno.
Chas. Hebard's stora Visited bys Burgiar
Monday Sigat

Monday night, or about . O'Clock
Tuesday morning, ChGs. Hebard's store
at Pequamng was entered by burglar
who secured about $50 10 money and
about $50 wsrth of stamps from
.he postoiilce department. in the same
room.
1t appears that the thief entered
by rear window. and at once pro-
ceeded to business. william Hebard,
who occupied rooms over the store,
heard footsteps below, but thinking
that one of the clerks was there,
paid no further attention. The next
morning the theft was discovered, and
the cash register was found IN the
cellar. where the rObber had carried
il and broken it open, thus securing
the money. Three registered letters
were ia the postoflice at the time, hut
were evidently overlooked, and the
stamps were the only loss in that de-
partment.
1t was daring piece of work, and
we understand that)no clue has as yet
been obtained. 1t is safe TO say how
ever, that II the guilty party is ar-
pretended he will be given a taste
OF what he richly deserves.
