PLUNIAS COUNTY.

B. B. Smith arrived in Reno Tues
day evening from Plumas county
where, with his brother, r. T. Smith
he is now engaged in developing $50
acres of placer land. The property is
located twenty miles east of Quincy
and is believed to be one of the rich
est placer propositions in northern
California. Mr.. Smith will spend
several days here securing supplies
and material for carrying on work
during the coming winter months.
A force of men is now engaged
erecting retaining dams, running cuts
and placing the land in shape for ex-
tensive operations with the opening
up of the spring season.
Smith is a graduate of the Univer-
sity of Nevada, at one time one of
the crack football players of the vars
ity team. For several years he was
employed as an engineer in the Unit
ed States reclamation service in Ne
vada, resigning about three years ago
to engage in mining. He was one of
the first locators in Fairview and
Eastgate.

RAILS ARE DOWN
TO P|OCHE DEPOT
FREIGHT AND PASSENGER SER
VICE TO COMMENCE AT ONCE
ON THE LINE.

Phoebe is now in a position to
boast of railroad, says the Phoebe
Record. This week the rails were
laid to the smelter site and there only
remains such work as the laying of
sidetracks and other details. Of
course, it will require no little work
to put the roadbed in position for
traffic, but this is being completed
as fast as possible. Only temporary
cribbing was put in at the different
bridge sites, but the pile driver is
now at work replacing these with
permanent structures. When this is
finished it will allow the use of a
large locomitive, which is absolutely
necessary before any amount of
transporting can be done.
One must needs take a trip to the
smelter to realize the immense
amount of work that is being done
by the railroad, which would indi-
cate that they anticipate large
amount of business in these parts.
The ore from the Nevada-Utah
properties will be hauled on the mar
row gauge and dumped in the bins
and then transferred to the standard
gauge and to that end the Nevada
Utah Company is having sidetracks
and ore bins constructed which is

RICH ROCK ON EXHIBITION.
Farrell Ore is Attracting Attention
in Salt Lake.

Farrell Ore is Attracting Attention
i'm Salt Lake.
On West Second South street is a
large chunk of ore, which was
brought to Salt Lake last week by
Capt. o. A. Tibbets, says the Tribune.
The ore came from the property at
Farrell, New, of the Salt Lake and
Nevada Exploration company, the
group that was acquired not long ago
by the Salt Lakers composing this
organization. Assays show the rock
to average $59S.70 in gold to the
ton, and is from the streaks that
hover round both walls of the nine
foot ledge.
Word from the property yester-
day was in effect that during the
first two days of sinking shaft upon
this ledge the management extracted
and sacked $4,000 worth of the ore
The ore is a splendid quartz. and the
ledge has every appearance of going
down to fine depths. 1t is under
stood that the owners have COM
pleted arrangements for financing an
organization to take over and operate
the group. and that this new COM
pany will be perfected in the near
future. Captain Tibbets deems the
proposition one of the most promis-
ing prospects that could be desired.

The New York Market.

Market opened steady and devel-
oped good deal of strength. Union
Pacific was the feature and made
good gains. Short covering was quite
heavy and the general feeling was
much better In the afternoon prices
eased off little, but on the whole
the market acted very well. Money
was a little easier and the talk all
around was more hopeful. Buying
was mostly by shorts. as conserva-
tive houses are doing little on mar
gins.

Dispensers of wet goods are getting wise since a certain ordinance was passed at the regular meeting of city council April l. There are provisions in said ordinance against selling liquors to persons under the. influence of li- quor, to habitual drunkards and those who are restricted from drinking by reason of notice having been served on saloons by next of kin. Failure to comply with the provisions of the or dinance in any single instance means a heavy fine, etc., hence the caution ex- ercised by miXologists. In each bar room is large card issued by the city to said places. This card bears cap- tion at its head, other information at the foot and the blank space between is left for the insertion of names of those who have been named in letters sent to the saloons by either mother, father, wife, brother, sister or guar dian of said persons to whom liquors shall not be sold. The list, as yet small, is not confined to the poor ele- ment. There are others higher up in the standard of social life, who cannot exercise the drinking habit, often for getting to stop in time.-Tucson Star.
