This is the name that has been
given to drift claim that lies just
at the edge of town in Gold Canyon.
1t is leased by Vincent, Brooks,
Shirley, Lothrop and Eglin, and
they are getting some very good
prospects out of the ground. The
claim has been worked before, but
in the wet weather the water has
prevented work on it to a depth
where the best ground is found.
The shaft is down about 40 feet
and several drifts have been run
which are from 10 to 80 feet in
length. The lessees have rugged
up water wheel to pump the
water from the mine and it does
the business nicely. When the
ground is easy about 200 buckets a
day are hoisted by horse power.
One forenoon this week the boys
hoisted, sluiced and cleaned up
SO buckets, and the result was a
little over two ounces of gold. A
pan of dirt frequently shows up
from Soc. to $1.OO. The mine can
only be worked in dry weather and
when water can be obtained from
the Douglass ditch, therefore work
on the claim will have to be sus-
pended in the Winter time. With
the dirt the boys are now working
in they can knock out "a day
easily.

Senator Hamden and his Colored
Troubadours gave performance in
Silver City Thursday night, and
one at the Odd Fellows Hall in
this place last night. They had
good audiences in both places, and
kept them in roars of laughter.
The company is composed of SEN
ator Hamden and wife, John
Bailey, M. Leona, J. Primer, M.
Morrison, Grant Massmedyu and
Frank Downing, and is strictly a
colored company. The show con-
sists of negro melodies, plantation
eccentricities, song and dance bust
ness, jigs, clogs, etc, and those who
did not attend missed real treat
in the way of a hearty laugh.
Daytonites have paid twice the
price to see shows in Virginia City
and Carson that were not half as
meritorious as the show given by
the Trou badours. From here the
Company go to Wadsworth, travel
ing overland, and will play there
tonight and Monday night.

Johnston, the Carson photogra-
pher, met with quite lively ex-
perience last Sunday morning. He
had started from Carson to go to
Mason Valley, late Saturday night,
so as to make the drive in the cool
of the day. He got to New Jerusalem
about 2 O'Clock Sunday morning,
and as it was dark he took the
wrong road and soon came to a
washout. The team stopped and
Johnston got out to see what was
the matter. He hardly landed on
the ground before the team jumped
the ditch and struck off through
the sagebrush and rocks. Where
the horses went nobody knows, but
they finally struck the Eldorado
road and came back over the bridge,
through town and continued on to
Mound House, where they jumped
over a fence into corral, and were
caught. Strange to say the horses
were not hurt a particle, nor was
the buggy badly damaged. A mum,
Der of plates, two cameras, a lot OF
photographs ready for delivery, etc.
were spilled out of the buggy on
the trip over the rocks and ruined,
the loss in this line being consider
able to Mr.. Johnston.

Several men have been employed
this week in repairing the wagon
bridge across the river at this place.
The approach on the east side OF
the river has been torn away and
in its place gravel has been filled
in to make an approach. This will
make the bridge shorter by about
40 feet, and unless very high water
comes the rock and gravel approach
will stand all right. While the re-
pairs were being made teams had
to ford the river, which was easily
done between the bridge and the
dam. The bridge is now open to
travel and is absolutely safe.

MEETING OF SILVER CITY MINE
OWNERS.

1t May Lead to Developing the Mines
OF That District TO Lower Depth.
Last Sunday there was a meeting
of the mine owners of Silver City
in Miners Union Hall, which was
largely attended. J. E. Gignoux
called the meeting to order and
after stating the objects of the
meeting called for the nomination
of a Chairman. F. A. Bierke was
chosen and Sam Boston as secretary.
After some consideration resolu-
ton was passed authorizing the
Chairman to appoint a committee
Of five, whose duty it should be to
interview the various mine owners
of the district and ascertain what,
if any, arrangements could be made
with either the American Flat Dew
Co. or the Comstock Tunnel Co. in
the way of inducing either of them
to prosecute the work of draining
and exploiting the mines of that
district to a greater depth than the
present owners could afford to do.
The committee consists of Jolese
Lawson, Alb. Wilson, Col. Pat
Quinn, F. S. Lacrouts and A. A.
Smith, and was instructed to re.
port the results of its investigations
at meeting called for Sunday,
August 9Th. Upon motion the
name of Chairman Bierke was ad-
ded to the committee.
Col E. D. Boyle appeared before
the meeting, representing the direct
ors of the A. F. d. Co., and stated
that his company had had under
consideration the proposition of
operating pumping plant at the
old Dayton works and running a
tunnel to drain the mines of both
Silver City and the American Flat.
1t had been found that two tun-
nels would be necessary for this
project after a main tunnel had
been run for some distance, one to
drain the western country, and one
which would run almost directly
under Silver City. Mr.. Boyle
thought that a depth of 500 feet
could be reached under the present
lowest workings Of any of the mines
in Silver City He had estimated
that it would cost about 5000, 900 to
carry out the plan, and thought
that if the Silver City mine owners
would donate literally in the way
of portions of their possessions that
there would be no trouble in raising
the money. In other words, if the
mine owners would deed to the A.
F. d. Co. a one half interest in
their claims, the company would
put up the money. The question
of royalty was also discussed, after
being presented by Mr.. Gignoux.
Mr.. Boyle thought this question
would meet with approval also, an
agreement to be signed to the effect
that the company should have a
certain royalty from all ore taken
out of the Silver City mines below
the present lowest workings of the
mines. 1t was also stated that the
mine owners of American Flat had
agreed to deed to the company
two-thirds interest in their proper
ties in consideration of the COM
pany RUNNING the tunnel and
draining the ground. Some other
minor matters were discussed, and
the meeting adjourned to the date
set for the next meeting, tomorrow.

NEW SPANISH TREATY.
Convention Relative to NaturaIiza
tiOn Before the State Department.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-A conven-
ton relative to the naturalization of
citizens Of the United States and Spain
is under consideration by Secretary of
State Sherman. 1t was prepared by
the government of Spain and was sub
mitted through the Spanish legation
ley administration came into office
keep the matter secret and it was
hoped that nothing in regard to 1t
would become public until after the
adjournment of congress. Secretary
Sherman has expressed his approval
of the project and the treaty has re-
ceived favorable consideration from
the president
The question of a new naturalization
treaty was discussed by Secretary Oh
ney and the Spanish minister in con-
nection with a treaty of commerce.
Secretary Olney fully approved the
plan, but for motives of expediency de-
sired to postpone the subject. There
was no disagreement between Mr.. Oh
ney and the Spanish minister as to the
merits of the question, but the former
thought it best to defer the policy and
wait while. No naturalization
treaty was actually submitted Only
the general points of one were dis
cussed. The treaty is intended to do
away with the perplexing points that
arise between the two governments
over the question of citizenship. Con-
sui General Williams, Gen. Lees pre-
deceSsor at Havana, strongly advised
such a convention
