Epirer Transcrret—I have examined the commanication/of Henry French of Bronco, which you handed me, in which he seeks information as to when-and where work is to be performed for restraining mining debris.

Faborers desiring employment will in my judgment do well to await the 'etting of contracts before proceeding to the designated points a8 some delay may oecur while contragtors are preparing. for Operations: ‘The Directors of the Drainage District are not authorized to employ men and can only let contracts for.contemplated improvements after thirty day’s notice.— When, the contracts are let the newspapers will doubtless give such publicity to the matter as. to impart ample notice to all -persoms in quest of emplaymengg, . <4 ,_ Nives Searus, a ~ Change of C, P.

The report is current upon our streets that Adrian Smith has married Alie Dorsey, formerly of Nevada City, Eee : One of Truckee’s little boys went fishing to Donner Lake last Sunday without asking leave of his parénts. Next morning a neighbor’s boy "met him_and asked:,. ‘Did you catch anything yesterday?” “Not till I got home,” was the rather sad aod ‘melancholy response. Sunday afternoon a beautiful sand. spout shot up from the road leading to E. Ellen’s saw mill, a half a mile from town. Up, up, and still upward it sped, until it reached, apparently thousands of feet, when coming in contact-with a strong current of air, it was soon dissipated. At the time there was not a breath of air_stirring. : Last Sanday night at Bronco, Jake Gulling, brakeman on the C. P. Railroad, ordered a tramp off irom the top of one of the coaches where-he was secluded, When the train was brought toa atandstill he ‘whipped out a knife and e-ruck a well-intended b ow for Jake’s breast, . but luckily for him. the knife was . dull, or else he would have received a terrible wound. Asit was, he got off with but his coat and vest cut The rascal made good his escape. Edith Brickell, daughter of Mr. upper Main street, came near being drowned in water tank No. 3 last Friday, It appears that the tank was uncovered and while), running past she made a misstep and plunged head-foremost into the .water, and had it not been for the assistance’ of accident by one of her children, she would certainly have perish d. ‘The water was quite deep and Mrs. Nash deserves commendable ‘praise in jumping into the tank and rescuing the little one ffom a watery grave. ae OOo St. ack Pay at Last. The Virginia Enterprise says: At the Washoe Lake they appear to have for so long been iu search—pay gravel. It will be remembered that in our last mention of the diggings we stated that a hughegranite bowlder had been encountered in the bottom of the shaft. Theyhave now passed through that bowkler and found immediately below it. another but softer one. -In this last bowlder was.a crack-three or four inches in width cofttaining gravel, gravel is found tobe rich in gold. The gold—a sample of which we have seen—is quite coarse and _ heavy. There are some pieces worth from 75 cents to $1. From the dirt taken out of the crevice in the bowlder « as obtained from $3 to $5 in gold dust. It is smooth, washed gold, such as is found.in the big gravel leads of California. ie * The sha't ig now 122 feet deep, and is supposed to be within a few feet of the bedrock. As there was no gold in the gravel ‘above, except. that a fine color-or two could once and a while be obtained, the pay will probably be found in a stratum of gravel from ‘three to five feet abdve the bedrock, constituting what are known as drift diggings. This het weather the air is very, bad at the bottom of the shaft, and one of the workmen came to the. city Jast Sanday for a bellows to be used in pumping air down to the men. They have a bedrock tunnel under the gravel channel which they can soon connect with the bottom of the shaft and thus not only secure good ventilation, but also fagilities for sending their pay dirt down by chute to the tunnei level.

Next morning a neighbor’s boy "met him_and asked:,. ‘Did you catch anything yesterday?” “Not till I got home,” was the rather sad aod ‘melancholy response. Sunday afternoon a beautiful sand. spout shot up from the road leading to E. Ellen’s saw mill, a half a mile from town. Up, up, and still upward it sped, until it reached, apparently thousands of feet, when coming in contact-with a strong current of air, it was soon dissipated. At the time there was not a breath of air_stirring. : Last Sanday night at Bronco, Jake Gulling, brakeman on the C.

The Virginia Enterprise says: At the Washoe Lake they appear to have for so long been iu search—pay gravel. It will be remembered that in our last mention of the diggings we stated that a hughegranite bowlder had been encountered in the bottom of the shaft. Theyhave now passed through that bowkler and found immediately below it. another but softer one. -In this last bowlder was.a crack-three or four inches in width cofttaining gravel, gravel is found tobe rich in gold. The gold—a sample of which we have seen—is quite coarse and _ heavy. There are some pieces worth from 75 cents to $1. From the dirt taken out of the crevice in the bowlder « as obtained from $3 to $5 in gold dust. It is smooth, washed gold, such as is found.in the big gravel leads of California. ie * The sha't ig now 122 feet deep, and is supposed to be within a few feet of the bedrock. As there was no gold in the gravel ‘above, except. that a fine color-or two could once and a while be obtained, the pay will probably be found in a stratum of gravel from ‘three to five feet abdve the bedrock, constituting what are known as drift diggings. This het weather the air is very, bad at the bottom of the shaft, and one of the workmen came to the. city Jast Sanday for a bellows to be used in pumping air down to the men. They have a bedrock tunnel under the gravel channel which they can soon connect with the bottom of the shaft and thus not only secure good ventilation, but also fagilities for sending their pay dirt down by chute to the tunnei level.
