Irons, fora long time past , editor of the Truckee Republican, {and who was succeeded in that position by Charles Olney, has made ar~ Fangements for starting a new paper at Truckee. The types and presses’ have already arrived there. It is to be issued tri-weekly, and the first number will appear the latter part of this week.

Im POOR MABLEGRAY, — “Once She Was Fair as the Snow, “but She Fell.” The Truckee Republican tells the. following about a character who is known in about every camp in this part of the State: ——“‘A forlorn, desolate woman, who lives in Truckee, is known as pour Mabel Gray. Her countenance and actions prove her demented, but she is harmless to everyone but herself. Her pitiful, woebegone face might haunt one. Poorly clad, poorl, fed, friendless and homeless, she wanders the streets day and night, Yes, day and night, for during all these bitter November «ighte she hae refused shelter and remained outdoors in the cutting wind and biting frost. How she has endured the cold and exposure, the privatiens and suffering, is past all comprehension. She is still a young woman, ani if properly clothed and cared for would be considered good looking. Before her present mode of life began she must have been beautiful. There are those in town who knew of her when she was happy, beloved and attractive, a lovely girl, a charming, devoted bride. Now she is dear to her friendsand to herself, a poor, half. insane wreck. A subscription was raised yesterday to send her to the county hospital, but she refused to go, and became fairly wild when the subject was mentioned in her presence. There was no. course left but to refund the money to those who gave it, and let poor Mabel Gray pursue her unhappy. way. The law affords no relief. The istoo harmtess to be arrested; she has remnants of reason which prevents her being declared insane. ‘The case is one of the most pitiful, sorrowful, that can be imagined. Our citizens must devise some means to place her where she can receive proper food and shelter and medical treatment, or she will die.” Yesterday the unfortunate woman was brought tothe County Jail to serve twenty days on a charge of vagrancy, She isa battered remnant of a once proud, intelligentand handsomelady. She has steeped herself in crime and whisky and opium till she knows no shame and says she would not forsake her present degradation if she could. She scorns pity and glories in her badness. —— ee Hydraulic Mine Started. The Hennessy hydraulic mine on Bread street, opposite the National Exchange Block, was started up yesterday morning, and at a late hour yesterday afternoon a large body of earth had been washedaway. The warer was obtained from the hydrant iv front of Wells, Fargo & Co.’s express office, and conducted across the street to.the claim by means of a big fire-hose. The slickens after passing through the sluice is dumped into the Main sewer in that part of town and flows thence into Deer creek, Asthe mine is located directly under a livery stable, the gtangers in the valley will have hard work proving that the ‘‘tailings” from it are aninjury to their unfertile ranches. TE An Incipient Conflagration. Saturday evening some children playing around the barn in the rear of the residences of W. G. Richards and John Tyrell, on Broad street just below the Engine House, accidentally set fire to the building Mrs. Tyrell discovered the flames before they had made much headway, and extinguished them. Had they got a few minutes’ more start the consequences . would probably have proven quite disastrous. —__---° <be Verdict for Plaintiff. The case of Theodore Trucks vs. A. L, Bagley went to the jury shortly after 8 o’clock Saturday evening, and about half an hour later a verdict for plaintiff was rendered It was ordered that the counsel for respective parties prepare and: present findings to the Court within ten days.

Feb. 2. The announcement of the death of Funeral Mary’s donkey was premature. The noble animal still lives, if weare to believe a series of affidavite tothat effect that have been regula:ly filed at this office. The report of its decease is stigmatized by sundry witnesses as a campaign slander invented by the Republicans for mercenary political purposes. The donkey will attend totheir case if they are unfortunate enough to wander in range .of its heels. is ——_____] Cloaks! Cloaks! Cloaks! Having purchased three quarters of the stock of a well known cloak manufacturing company at 25 cents on a dollar, we will give the ladies of this vicinity the benefit of the bargain. We will sell the cloaks which we have on hand now at 25 cents on the dollar, Our new stock will arrive in a very few days. —Ladies should be very cautious where they buy their goods. Toey should always consult us before purchasing elsewhere as we keep none but genuine goods, ‘We handle no second hand auction trash or cheap Joho ‘goods. For every dollar spent in our store you receive a dollar in return, More wher our Mr. Roeenberg returns, RosENBERG Bros. Cheap John Trash Takes theLead,
Mr. Low Price wants to know why he brought Mr. High Price, in the latter’s old age, down to such reductionsincloaks. Mr. High Price says he 1s going tosell at 25 cents what cost him a dollar, He cleims he has no cheap John trash in his store. You can see for yurself that John trash and second hand goods, cents on the dolar. The One Price San Francisco Store dosen’t pay $1 for goods and sell them for 25 cents. We like to live and let live.” A year ago, when this store started in Nevyou 25 cents for a card of buttons. Mr. Low Price sells you the same article fer 5 cents. A comb that Mr. High Price used tocharge you 25 cents for, we sell you for 5 cents. And still we make a good living on that lay-out. Mr. High Price can afford to sell his goods at ‘25 cents on the dollar,” and still make 100 per cent. profit. Remember, always patronize oppositions. You have paid old °49 prices long enough in this town. ow things are coming down to a business basis, because Mr. Low Prices is bringing Mr. Dry Goods and Mr. Clothing down in their prices. Why doesn’t Mr. High Price offer you calico, sheetings, ginghams, and other staple articles? He claims that he is going to sell at 25 cents on the dollar, but he only offers you shoftworn goods that he has had in his store for 20 years.

Rancuer.” The Little York isa hydraulic mine on Bear river. Tt was one of those against which suit was brought in the Keyes anit; the first anti-debris action. The Lit. tle Yo k, we believe, is one of the defendants in an anti-d. bris suit now before the United States Circuit Court. We print theabove communication for what it may be worth. The Bee knew the ‘‘message” had no foundation before putting it in type. That is one of the little dodges our contemperary resorts to in order to keep the valley people “riled up” and embittered towards the miners, The moment the people down there get over their mad, that moment will the greedy cormorants comprising the anti-mining ring have to skirmish around for some other means of earning a livelihood. It devolves upon the Bee, as ‘the organ of the ring, to keep alive the sentiments of hatred between upper and lower countries, and it takes kindly te the task. el Badly Hurt. The Tidings of Saturday ; saye: This merning Richard Gummoe, while attempting to cut the lampass out of the mouth of a young colt, in his blacksmith shop at. Boston Ra vine, met with a very painful accident by the colt rearing and striking Mr. Gummoe ov the forehead with the fore foot. An ugly wound was made, RC ROE TEESE EA Lessons in Painting.
