MUCH SMELLING DONE HERE.

Smelling and refining Is business
OF some proportion In Detroit. The
local plants turn out vast amount OF
product, year in and year out, with
the result that Detroit has become an
important center for this line OF trade.
While ore, direct from the mines, is
used extensively in the manufacture
OF basic metals, large quantity OF
metal refuse finds its way into the To-
cal melting pots Nothing goes TO

plants, the operators OF these works
being as resourceful as the boarding
house mistress and the thrifty house

And In this connection II might not
be amiss To suggest that some article

door knob, may once have been a
brass kettle or something OF the sort

brass Junk is brought TO the smelling

CONVICT DEAL
GLUDEs OFFICERS

Warden Ray Baker of the state
prison. Captain j. P. Donnelley of
the state police and Sergeant Stone
came down from Carson yesterday
afternoon and continue on to
Sparks, where they conducted the
hunt for Deal, the escaped cow let
who was last seen near Virginia
City.
Sergeant Stone who spent two
days searching the district around
Virginia City with Inspector
Cahlan, stated that no trace of the
convict could be found. The
tracks of person were discovered
at some distance from the place
that Deal made his appearance,
and with the belief that the
escaped prisoner was heading in
this direction. the hunt will be
made accordingly. All the shafts
and tunnels near Virginia City were
explored but it was impossible to
find the hiding place. Deal stated
at the time he held up Miss Annie
Sullivan and forced her to secure
food for him that he did not fear
being captured, as he had hiding
place that the officers could not
find.
1t is now believed that he i'm
mediately left that section and
made for the main railroad line in
an endeavor to get out of the
country. All the stations are
being closely watched and should
the convict make his appearance
he stands an excellent chance of
being captured.-Reno Journal.

AN EARLY DAY STAGE ROBBERY

In the last issue of the Eureka

account of the robbery Of stage
between Palisade and Eureka,
between May 5th and a12th. 1872.
Eureka was then a prosperous
mining camp: -........
The last job of the road agents
occurred on Friday evening, and
was remarkable for the cool and
deliberate manner in which the
robbers did their work. As re-
lated to US by an eye witness ii
appears that at about7 o'cock p.

a point about two miles this side
of Stonehill station, near Mineral
Hill the driver discovered some
suspicious; looking objects ahead,
and fearing stage robber s,
endeavored to turn his team but
was unable to do 80 on account of
the deep ruts in the road. Four
masked men appeared. and in COM

the driver handed down the
treasure box to one Of the party.

of the passengers six, in number

they were induced from the close
proximity of several small cannon,
to obey.
Among the passengers was a
minister Of the Gospel, who, upon
being searched, plead manfully for
his money and watch, stating that
he WAS but a preacher, and per
consequence mad only a very trif.
ling sum with him. But the relent-
less bandit didn't care straw
only allowing him to retain his
watch until finding poor pickings
among the rest of the passenger s,
he returned and mildly but firmly
dem anded the aforesaid timepiece.
The leader, however, seemed m . re
tender. hearted and after extorting
a promise from the Christian
gentleman that he would pray for
him and his friends to the full
value of the watch returned 1t.
