folding her bands and looking up to
him with a bewitching pleading
glance. “] know they. inust be just

Mr. Davis got home from San
Francisco lastevening. He says that
President Bolles talked in a courteous manner in relation to the suit,
and immediately after the papers
were served wrote a telegram to the
C mpany’s Superintendent at
‘Snareuville directing him to close
down the mines and to sell no water
for hydraulic mining purposes. The
injunction prohibited the sale of water for hydraulic mining purposes,
as well as prohibited the Company
from sk debris from eer
-mines into the Yuba river or its
tributsries. This is an entirely new
festure in the injunction suits, and
a very im t one. President
Bolles told Davis thathe regarded J Temple's decision as just
and wise. He also said that his
company do aot wish to carry on
their business. unlgwfully. If they
could not mine without violating the
law they would he satisfied to stop.
Word was received from Smartsville last night that the Excelsior
Company had discharged no men,
but that there had been no water
running in the mines yeste: day. The
pooner a that the injunction will
trictly obeyed. . There is no reason to doubt the good faith of the
President of the Company, and he of
course controls the Superintendent,
and would be punishable for contempt in case the injunction were
violated. James O'Brien was. fora
long time Superintendent, but there
was a change of management last
Spring and he retired: from that position, Mr. O’Brien is supposed to
still retain a large interest in the
property
We do not understand ony Mr.

not be possible that ‘the has thrown
up the sponge.” The anti-miners
seem to be in high glee over the fact
that the prospect is good for robbing
the Excelsior Company of its property, ruining the beautiful “town of
Smarteville, and throwing out of employment a large number of men who
have large families to support. At
bringing about such a state of affairs
none bat thearch-fiends wholine their
pockets with gold would rejoice.

Davie that he regarded Judge Temple’s decision as just and wise,” but
Bes we do not believe anything . of) the

misrepresented, there is no doubt ip

“Well, I should gobble distinctly!”. returned the Montana man,
with a quiet smile. ‘‘Just before I

man. ‘There we was, right under

“Oh, you can’t hold us fellows
down long.’ We're wild, wooly and
hard to curry, miss, Then we've
got the best soil in the world. We
just planted a grain crop under that

the girl. ~

so black nobody coull see what was

known in them parts.”
““What was it?” asked the bew ildered girl.
Amine! a bonanza! And them
fellows worked it. Assayed $200 to
the ounce and no limit to the game.
But they lost it.”
“*How?” ;
‘*3ome preachers from Minneso‘a
came over and claimed that it had
blowed from their State, and the
Montana men had to give it up.
The Minvesota men packed it on a
wagon and touk it home.” __
“I didn’t know they could carry
amine that way. What kind of a
thing was it?”
Minnesota fellows had been living
off it fur yeare, and hadn’t had to
sink a shaft. The placer was as
soft as your check, and they hadn’t
touched the main vein. It was s
bonanza, and Smallpox Run has
never been the same place since.” +
“I never heard a. church debt
called amine before,” sighed the
girl. oe
Then the Maiiteak man rose up
and looked at her with mingled pity
and contempt; for there are degrees
of innocence that even a Montana
man can’t tolerate.
