Union Hill Company.

Slavery Bradley, of Philadelphia, who
has been appointed receiver of the
Edgemont and Union Hill Smelling
company, and the company's New York
attorney, j. A Steiner, are in the city.
They are investigating the c~ompany's
affairs for the purpose Of making a de.
tailed report to the directors. Mr..
Sterner informs us that the c%ompsny's
indebtedness is less than S250,000 and
49,. ,,.i.as ~@~i... "a
here is abou: $4,000. The stockholders
are satisfied they have a good property
and propose to satisfy all legitimate
claims and 'ontinue their development
of the property, in a business like man.
ner. Parties stand ready to take the
issue Of $500,O0 worth of bonds and pay
the money which will enable the com
pany to pay Its debts and leave it a large
fund for working purposes. Mr.. Sterner
believes the receivership matter will be
of short duration, probably six weeks at
the outside, by which time all Difficult
ties will have been satisfactorily adj
justed. The receivership was not for
the purpose Of closing up the business
and disposing ofthe property, but AS We
have said, simply To put the company
on its feet by purging it Of superHuitiss.
When operations are resumed, practical
mining men, of untnrnished reputation
and unquestioned ability will be put in
charge and work will be pursued upon
scientific mining principles. The stock
holders feel that a large amount of
money has been wasted in doing useless
work and in other ways. and hereafter
the developments will be concentrated
and upon an extensive scale, calculated
to open the property as it should be.
The Indebtedness includes a large sum
to Frazer & Chalmers for machinery for
the proposed 20O-stamp mill, which has
not been taken from the factory. The
Union Hill people feel confident they
have a good proposition, If iudiciously
handled, and are willing TO put IN
money to mature their plans.-Pioneer.

The Masauerade.

Captain Denny and the members Of
his company have ample reasons for
feeling proud over the marked success
Of the masked ball given under the
auspices Of Company /, at Garloch's
opera house on Tuesday night, which
may be justly conceded to have been
one of the most enjoyable social enter
tainments OF the season. The large hall
was flied to its utmost capacity, even
the gallery afIording only standing
room. The number Of masks, which is
moi definitely known to the writer. was
exceptionally large for this place, and
represented. practically, every char.
acter usually seen upon occasions Of
this kind. The management was nota-
bly, perfect the music was faultles,,
and nothing that could in the least
degree contribute to the pleasure and
comfort of the participants was over
looked.
The costumes were as varied as they
were numerous, some Of which were of
surprising elegance and attractiyeness,
while others were so loudly ludicrous
that a glim pse of them would excite the
o sanity saint to violent laughter.
The pleasing revelry continued un-
broken, save for an hour devoted to
feasting. until the wee sma hours. when
the happy throng retired. greatly pleas
ed with the nights experiences.

head infiicting a painful wound, and
rendering him insens;ble for some time.
Had the ball hit him squarely on the
head, there is no question but what the
blow would have been fatal. The
wound was sewed up and properly
dressed, after which he was resting easy,
and will doubtless be fully recovered IN
a few days.

A Game.

1t transpires that Tom Wagner. who
stirred up so much excitement in the
Hills last fall over an alleged discovery
of free gold ore in Carbon county,
Wyoming. and who induced a number
Of Deadwood men to put up sums of
money ranging all the way from 500 TO
$1,000, was working a confidence game
of the first magnitude, and his rich vein
Of free gold bearing rock was purely an
invention. Wagner has disappeared
completely. 1t will be remembered
that q number of samples or ore were
sent by him to NJ. r. Rossiter & Co. IN
this city, and to an assay Office in Cen
trail, last fall, 10 be assayed, each sample
giving splendid results. On the strength
of some half hundred assays Wagner
was able to interest Ii. II. Keimer of
this city to the extent Of $4,000, the
money being advanced from time to
time to pay for help and TO buy tools
and powder. A number Of Beadwood
men visited the place in Wyoming and
were shown the Groupings OF a vertical
vein, coming up between granite walls
and iraceablc for several thousand feet.
Wagner claimed 10 be taking his ore
from this vein, but it is known that he
was either stealing the ore or loading"
it, rs no one else has been aDle 10 get
anything more than q trace from it. II
has also been discovered that the money
advanced to him 10y Keimsr and others
was not used in paying the men at work
on the ground. or to buy provisions, but
was to all intents appropriated by
Wagner. The men who were at work
are still unpaid, and a number Of Casper
business men are wiser by several hun
dred collars that Wagner got into them
for in buying provisions.
No one knows whittier Wagner has
gone. but he evidently deramped by
himself He must have been several
thousand dollars ahead rs a result OF
