Thee Coming Champion. : _—_ The Grasg Valley Tidings of Saturday says: The mine which is to aucesed the Idaho as the champior mine of this district, is ® matter of earnest and frequent. conjecture on the part of everybody having interests here and bearing in remembrance that several mines preceded the Idaho as such champion. Of course the Idaho is a great producer, and is likely. to be, from present appearances, for many years, but, as has been in the past so all believe it will be . in the fature—a mine to fill ‘the Idaho’s place is lopked for as sure to. turn up ere long. Among those ‘spoken of and best regarded by. practical miners is the Maryland, an adjoining location east on the same ledge as the fdaho. Ever since the finding of the rich-chute in the Eureka, the Idaho's predecessor,. the Idaho’showing a more favorable outlook for some of the upper levels in. that direction, together with the appearance of the ledge and the Wall rock in the Maryland ground itself, have caused a feeling among miners that this is the coming champion mine. In fact we heard a practical miner say yesterday—ione. who has from the Eureka on east since its discovery, that if there were any} shares of Mary and to be\ had here he would invest. therein half his monthly earnings, feeling assured of a grand outcome. Those who fear that Grass Valley ison the wane should remember this hopeful outjlook by practical miners, Fitzhugh, the Superintendent afore. _ A Reckless Thing to do. After considerable deliberation and strapping on four revolvers, a slung-shot and a dozen daggers more or leas, the Carson Appeal hurls itself into the breach after this fashion: The Nevada TRANscrrPT gives what is probably a truthful notice of an amateur performance. It says: *‘Those who failed to see the pertering unction to themselves that: they did not ‘miss a treat.’ The amateurs were at their worst, and that is saying a good dea.” ‘This is a terrib:e exhibition of nerve on the part of the TrRanscripr. No other paper on the coast ever before dared to do such a reckless thing. The Appeal, which never hesitated to walk where angels fear to tread, never had the gall to do such a thing. It sometimes declines to notice a poor performance but beyond that piece of enterprise it never thinks of going. «+ > City Trustees. The City Trustees held a special meeting Monday evening, the full Board being present. The following persons were granted permitsto erect frame buildings, lathed and plastered, within the fire limits : Mrs, King, W. S. Richards, J. H. Harrison.

There is a fairlooking ledge, vut of which some tolerable quartz has been. mined,and an incline to the depth of about forty feet has been sunk‘on the ledge. The Marysville Ledger says: During the progress of this work, one of the partners died, and ever since his death his spirit has been whidpering into the ears of the present owner the word ‘‘deeper.” In his dreams the spirits poipted ont a spot tohim, and-this spot was selected to sink a shaft. An-upright shaft was begun, . and at a depth of about thirty feet they went through their ledge.

Thee Coming Champion. : _—_ The Grasg Valley Tidings of Saturday says: The mine which is to aucesed the Idaho as the champior mine of this district, is ® matter of earnest and frequent. conjecture on the part of everybody having interests here and bearing in remembrance that several mines preceded the Idaho as such champion. Of course the Idaho is a great producer, and is likely. to be, from present appearances, for many years, but, as has been in the past so all believe it will be . in the fature—a mine to fill ‘the Idaho’s place is lopked for as sure to. turn up ere long. Among those ‘spoken of and best regarded by. practical miners is the Maryland, an adjoining location east on the same ledge as the fdaho. Ever since the finding of the rich-chute in the Eureka, the Idaho's predecessor,. the Idaho’showing a more favorable outlook for some of the upper levels in. that direction, together with the appearance of the ledge and the Wall rock in the Maryland ground itself, have caused a feeling among miners that this is the coming champion mine. In fact we heard a practical miner say yesterday—ione. who has from the Eureka on east since its discovery, that if there were any} shares of Mary and to be\ had here he would invest. therein half his monthly earnings, feeling assured of a grand outcome. Those who fear that Grass Valley ison the wane should remember this hopeful outjlook by practical miners, Fitzhugh, the Superintendent afore. _ A Reckless Thing to do. After considerable deliberation and strapping on four revolvers, a slung-shot and a dozen daggers more or leas, the Carson Appeal hurls itself into the breach after this fashion: The Nevada TRANscrrPT gives what is probably a truthful notice of an amateur performance. It says: *‘Those who failed to see the pertering unction to themselves that: they did not ‘miss a treat.’ The amateurs were at their worst, and that is saying a good dea.” ‘This is a terrib:e exhibition of nerve on the part of the TrRanscripr. No other paper on the coast ever before dared to do such a reckless thing. The Appeal, which never hesitated to walk where angels fear to tread, never had the gall to do such a thing. It sometimes declines to notice a poor performance but beyond that piece of enterprise it never thinks of going. «+ > City Trustees.

There is a fairlooking ledge, vut of which some tolerable quartz has been. mined,and an incline to the depth of about forty feet has been sunk‘on the ledge. The Marysville Ledger says: During the progress of this work, one of the partners died, and ever since his death his spirit has been whidpering into the ears of the present owner the word ‘‘deeper.” In his dreams the spirits poipted ont a spot tohim, and-this spot was selected to sink a shaft. An-upright shaft was begun, . and at a depth of about thirty feet they went through their ledge..
