A Pecaltar Explosion. Monday forenoon. the large pipe that conveys water from the Snow Mountain ditch to the Merrifield mine burst with aloud report at a point near the mill. “The force of the explosion threw » piece of scantling clear over the building, knocked « window sash through on that side Of the mill, and twisted out of shape the section of pipe that gave away. A strip of wood that held the window-in place struck a workman in the mill across the héad, making him think for a moment that his time had come, but fortunately not injuring him. The pipe was repaired yesterday. The explosion was probably caused by the pipe becoming plug. ged with snow where it tapers before entering the mill, and water being let in from the head rushed down andeémpressed the air behind the the plug to an extent that the ‘iron could not stand the pressure. Nothing in It. An item appeared in this paper yesterday saying that a pedlar named J. H. Jones ‘haa ‘been arrested at Grass Valley for cruelly beating his horse. Yesterday Mr. Jones called at this office, ‘bringing his horse along. The animal ‘certainly did not show any ‘signs of having been misused, Mr. Jones’ statement is that he was driving. past the place of A. Burrows when his animal fell against the fence. He says~he had some words with Burrows about the damage done to the fence, and after he had gone Barrows. went and swore out a complaint charging him Tha Genteal Pacific Reilrced Can: pany has begun suit in the Superior Court st Frank Hues, admin__iatratot of the estate of Wm, Jenktaken at once disch ing spirit in these demonstrations, is y@. and is well made in respect to his _ THE) REVEVAL, A Ripple that May Become a Wave.

His impassioned prayers . tence from his fellow Christians. Not long ago while Tonkin was delving for golddown in the depths of.the Merrifield mine, a great mass of earth.and rock fell upon and_pinned him to the earth in a cruel fashion. As his co-laborers on that level heard the crash of the cave and Tonkin, believing his earthly career had ended, raised his eyes to-heaven and with a smile that gave no token of the tortures his crushed body\ was undergoing, cried in ringing tones, ‘My soul is happy!

The view thet is so grand ie toward.the north and northeast, where magnifiéent peaks and ranges can be seen. The view makes a man feel that he is very smaH as compared to even « small part of the earth ‘on which Le treads, and yet makes him great because he is allowed to contemplate and has the power to comprehend such magnificence, : _ Two Charges. Frank Bice, who has been working at Wellington’s livery stable, was loeked up yesterday to await trial on two charges of petit larceny. Tom McAllister, foreman of the stables, charges that Bice stole from the till $5 belonging to Mr. Wellington, and a silver ring owned by complainant.

As a sample of the weather we are now having I will simply say that at Moore’s Flat it has been six degrees above zero, at Graniteville two degrees above zero, and at Milton Dam an average of . eight degrees below zero. Mr, Brigham, the practical mining Superintendent and ditch manager, arrived here yesterday direct from the East.

F, M. of some of the connections in the “holder” of the gas works, on Saturday night, the supply of gas was shut off a little before 9 o’clock, ‘and in consequence there was a sudden demand for candles in many establishments.
