fixtures taken out and the tallow cam

The Power Plant

Following is brief summary of the
progress made during last month in
the construction of the power plant at
Floriston:
During the last month We had large
force of men at work on the pole line,
also on our fume, and have within the
last few days put on large force OF
men on the pole line construction.
There will be three separate lines
running north from the sub-station,
one extending to the G. & G. shaft, one
to the Union shaft and one to the ST.
ezra Nevada shaft. The main distri-
button line will run south from the sub
station, with branches to the new
Gould & Curry mill, to the Yellow
Jacket shaft and to the Belcher shaft.
The line will run close to all the mines
on the Comstock lode. so that connec-
tions can be readily made to all points
where power may be required.
We hope to be able in our next re-
port to state definitely when We will be
ready to turn on the current and com
mence the new era in mining on the
ComstOck de.-Enterprise.

Preachers and prizefights

Recently in San jose at a convention
OF the Pastors Union. an attempt was
made to regulate prizetghtiny. Rev.
McLaren got the floor and advocated
limited round contests with fights
scheduled to but two rounds and to be
pulled of on the top of Mt. Hamilton.
The Reverend gentleman evidently
knows very little of the ring. The
principals only get warmed up in two
rounds and 10 one would go to see
such short bouts. Such high license
would be inconsistent with the ethics
of sport and the public would be
swindled.
Had the Pastors Union called in the
Hon. Chas. Sh0rtridge of the Herald
he would have given the convention a
talk relative to the prize ring that
would have given them a clearer ligh hit
on the subject
The Pastors Union should leave ring
matters to members of their congrega-
tiOns, and others who know something
regarding the vexed question.

the sort of welcome they would get in
Nevada. The dispatch appeared in the
World of June Sd:
Carson, New, June 2-Nevada will
heartily welcome all Beers who may
desire to come. l think they would
make most desirable citizens of the
United States.
They are evidently thoroughly i'm
bued with the spirit of liberty and self
government which actuated our Revo-
lutioaary fathers in establishing our
Republic. They know the inalienable
rights of man and defend them with
their blood. Let them come.
