shut Down.

The Douglass mill, at this place,
which has been running nearly two
months, working the tailings from
the Rock point reservoir, shut down
Wednesday night on account of the
low stage of the water in the river.
The mill has put through nearly
200 tons a day from the time it
started, and in week or ten days
more would have finished up the
Rock Point tailings. 1t will not
start again until there is larger
head of water, which there will not
likely be until the middle of next
September.

Dredge TailIngs.

The Davis teaching plant at this
place, which has been running on
river material of the Carson River
Dredge Co, has so far worked about
900 tons, and it has proved that
there is fair margin in the work
ing of the tailings. About 60 tons
per day are handled by the plant,
but some delay has been caused by
the dampness of the material, and
it is now being hauled out onto
higher ground to dry. This will
somewhat increase the cost of hand
ling, but this loss will be more than
made up by the more rapid working
of the material in dry state and a
higher percentage Of extraction.
The material is low grade, but there
is an endless quantity of it, and a
small margin is all that is necessary
to have the enterprise prove pay
ing one, which it is now doing

EBOstoD- Nevada Copper DO.

Work is progressing quite rapidly
on the Boston Nevada Copper Co.'S
smelter and mines in Mason Val
ley The plant will be completed
inside of month. They have sunk
100 feet on the Dobbin's claim and
struck water, and have stopped sink
ing until hosting works and
pumping plant can be put up, but
are now drifting for the ledge, which
is supposed TO he from 80 to so feet
distant. This week more men were
put on the Mcconnell claim. and
three shifts are now being worked,
with four men on shift. A well
has been sunk just below the smelt-
err, and from this we'll water will
be pumped into tank 100 feet
above the surface of the ground.
This water is to be used for general
purposes and for the jacket Of the
smelter This we'll is about so feet
deep at the present time but will be
sunk deeper, and drifts will be run
so as to make kind of an under
ground reservoir, which will furnish
sufficient quantity of water at all
times as the depth attained will be
considerably below the river bed.

DEATH OF AN OLD RESIDENT.
,. a.. MtBds PASSES Away @f his
REome KD Snatth Valley.

j. C. Kinds, of Smith Valley,
died at his home, the Hot Springs
in Smith Valley, last Sunday the
18th of this month, from a stroke
of paralysis. Mr.. Kinds was ma
tive of Pennsylvania, aged II years,
and leaves wife, two sons and a
daughter, and host of friends to
mourn his loss. His burial took
place Monday, from his residence,
and the funeral was largely attend
ed by residents of the valley and
elsewhere.
Mr.. Kinds was formerly a resi-
dent of Virginia City, where he
conducted grocery store for about
three years. This was in '61, '62
and '63. In '63 he pulled up stakes
in Virginia City, and moved to
Dayton, where for four years he
conducted a lumber and hay yard
and did thriving business. In
1867 he purchased the Hot Springs
ranch, in Smith Valley, moved to
that point, and there resided up to
the time of his death.
Mr.. Kinds was a prosperous and
thrifty farmer, and he leaves his
family we'll provided for. His death
was probably fastened by an acct
dent that happened to him some
months ago. While driving from
his home to Mason Valley he was
thrown out of wagon and quite
seriously injured At that time he
had a slight stroke of paralysis,
but recovered SO as to be about on
crutches. A week ago last Mon
day, however, he had another
stroke, and it proved too severe a
shock for him to stand On Mon
day of this week, Mr.. J. L. Camp
bell, of this place, who was an old
and intimate friend of Mr.. Kinds,
received letter, which was written
on the oath, by Mr.. Kinds son, re-
questing that he come to Hot
Springs, rs the doctor had given up
all hopes of pulling him through.
Mr.. Campbell left Immediately, and
arrived AT Hot Springs Tuesday
morning, only to find that all that
remained of his old friend had been
placed beneath the sod the day be
fore.
Deceased was member of Val
ley Lodge No. 9, F. Il A. M, of this
place.

Americas Fiat Development Go.

On Friday Of last week a meet
ing of the American Flat Dew. Co.,
was held in Virginia City, at which
an invitation was extended to the
Silver City mine owners to be pres
ent. A proposition was submitted
to utilize the Dayton shaft as a
stump, and pumping plant, from
which drifts would be run through
Silver City to open up the mines at
depth of about 500 feet. The
question of how the company was
to be compensated for this work was
taken under consideration. Two
plans were proposed. One that the
mine owners should deed a portion
of their claim to the company, and
another that royalty similar to
that paid to the Comstock Tunnel
Co. by the Virginia City mines,
should be paid. After considerable
discussion it was finally agreed that
a meeting Of the Silver City mine
owners should be held in Silver
City on the 1st day of August, a
committee from the Development
Co. to be present, when the matter
il to be further considered and, if
possible, some definite arrange
ments made to carry out the deal

Van TIuxer Nuggets.

+. 4. Curtis, mining man Of
Denver, and w. B. Duvall arrived
in camp Tuesday from a trip to the
Van Duzer placers. Mr.. Duvall
had with him ten nuggets that
were found over there in the
August-Hayward property. The
least of them was worth three or
four dollars and several of them
had a value of about twenty dollars
each. Mr.. Duvall believes that Van
Duzer will rival the richest Dig
gings of California. He says the
boys make their cleanup in tin
cup, picking mp the gold with their
fingers, and are taking ont from
ten to forty dollars a day to the
man.-GoLd Greek News.

The National Police Gazette says:
A pugilistic fiesta in Carson City
would hardly be the real thing
without Dan Stuart figuring in it
somewhere, and | was rather sur
prised when | learned few weeks
ago that another big affair was be-
ing planned to take place in the
Sage Brush State, and the irrepres-
sible Dan had not been figured on
as factor. Since then have been
apprised more fully of what is hap
pening, and instead of not being
''in the play" Stuart figures as the
"whole thing" and nothing will be
done without his cognizance and
support. 1t also transpires that
Stuart's right-hand man, Wheelock,
he of the soft, gentle and persuasive
way, has already gone to Frisco to
perfect the arrangements for the
carnival, which will in all proba-
bility be held sometime in Novem-
Der. 1t is at Carson where Sharkey
and Maher will fight, unlees some
thing of an unforeseen character
happens to "bust up" their present
intentions. If Mccoy and Creedon
ever get down to a fighting basis
they, too, may be expected to settle
their fistic differences on the same
occasion, and one other match, pos
slbly between Kid Lavinge and Joe
Wolcott, would provide the third Of
a trio of most desirable attractions.
1t is not too much to expect that
Stuart will offer $4,000 each for
the first two matches referred to
and $4,000 for the latter.

4 Corporation Judge.
Vancouver (Wash.) Register. !

The prospective appointment of At
torney General Mckenna to q position
on the Supreme bench to succeed As
sOciate Justice Field, who is expected
to retire soon, has brought on q stOr IN
of protests from every section of the
Pacific coast. The leading attorneys
in all the principal cities Of the three
states have attached their names to Pc
titiOns to the President urging that
Mckenna be not given a seat in the
Supreme Court. Portland attorneys
have joined with a will in the popular
uprising and are determined to make
their influence felt. McKenna is re-
garded As man of small calibre, a
tool of railroad corporations and total
~ unfit for position of such great i'm
portance as Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court. Oakland fCal.) Mail
says:
Attorney General McKenna went
into the Cabinet with the uuderstan nd.
ing that he was to succeed Associate
Justice Field. Mckenna lie not fit for
the high office. When Mckenna was
on the Federal Circuit bench in this
State he was usually spoken of as Hunt
lngton's judge, and it was openly
charged that he was never known to
render decision in favor of an indi-
vldual against corporation. In short,
ne was known as q Corporation Judge. I"
Such fellow is not fit for the Supreme
Court of the United States, and il
would be a disgrace to President Nc

been carried to the courts, is one of the
most interesting of the kind ever on

times been sentenced to hang, yet each
time some technical point has been
made whereby the sentence has been
postponed. Durant is now under SEN
tence to hang next month, yet bis at

he will shortly produce some sensa-
tional evidence which will place the
crime upon the proper party.
