The drift, was started from “both shafts under the sttpposition that the ledge in both were the same, but it was demonstrated that they were separate ledges, and when the drifts were extended far enough ‘toward each other a cross-cut was rurt to connect them, and upon its cormpletion it was shownthat the two ledges are sixty feet apart, both being of good size and producing good pay ore. With this connection made an important charge in the workitg of the mine is contemplated, and.instead ‘of two sets‘of machinery being used to do the hoisting, one will be stopped and all the rock hoisted through the Chavanne. This will prove quite an item of saving in the monthly expense of the mine. / ‘I'he drain drift from the bottom of the Chavanne shaft through to the New York Hill mine, has yet about 80 feet to run, which will take from three to four weeks, when a perfect drainage will be secured for the mine to its present depth of working.

There is but little water to be pumped now, and with the drain drift there will be none at all, There are between 6) and 70 men engaged abeve and below ground and this number will be increased during the Winter.

Mr. Stafford, traveling agent of the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company, and. who has been . stopping in this section for some time, id again the hero of a good item. He started from this city to Sacramento ‘the other day with a pair of $80 gold bracelets—a present for his wife— inhis pocket. By some means the box contaitiing them slipped from ithe pocket on to the cushion, Shortly after this occurred he ‘got up and passed into another car, and a Chinaman took the seat vacated. The. latter eyed the package for some. time, but did not disturb it, probably thinking that the owner was close at hand, The train had stopped at Colfax, the passengers had all alighted, and it was just pulling out for the return trip-when one of men ain accidentally discovered the treasure. The train was stopped by using the bell cord, the finder rushed out on the platform and discovering Mr, Stafford returned the jewelry tohim. He declares that the attaches of the Narrow Guage railroad are the most honest set of men in the world—excepting that blarge and growing class known as life insurance agents. A ee -Saventle Wood Sawers. If the Chinese in and aroun . this city had to depend for their daily bread upon what they could earn by sawing wood, they would be starved out of the country ingide of a month. Until three years ago the Mongolians had a monopoly of such labor, Then white men and boys. crowded them aside, and now the. latter have the whole business, A large number of youngsters, aged from twelve to seventeen years, find steady employment for several weeks every Fall, and-earm an average of two dollars per day each. put the money thus earned to foolish uses, others utilize it to good purpose. A good example of the latter class, is one little bey of eleven years who contributes largely to his widowed mother's support by giving her all of his earnings, Sieatiedinat Found his Pants. Charles Hanson missed a pair of pants from his room yesterday morning under what he considered very suspicious circumstances. He went before Judge Garthe to obtain a warrant for searching the effects of a Chinaman who worked about the premises. While.the warrant was being made out Hanson had occasion to go to the room again, and the first thing that greeted his eyes on opening the door was his trousers hanging there in thgir accustomed place. The reader can imagine the surpnse ‘depicted in his eyes at the discovery, The case of Mulloy vs. Mulloy is 4 Very reasonable. While some of them . wa es. ok An Officer Completely Sold. Among the young meg for whom warrants of arrest were issued in connection with a disturbance that oecurred at. Hamilton Hall, Grass Valley, while Pinafore was being played there last Saturday night, was Geo Kendall. The various parties chiefly interested in'the trouble disappeared before the exa:nination, and Kendall among them. Tuesday afternoon he got. to Colfax. His description had reached there before him. The officer who had it struck up a conversa” tion with him and asked him if he had seen anything of ‘‘Kendall.” Of course he said no, when the officer went on to minute'y describe the very person who stood: before him. Kendall very naturally feigned ignorance as to his own whereabouts: When the-train came along he bade the officer who was looking for him a hearty farewell, and started for Oregon. The knight of thestar is meantime closely watching every stranger who arrives in Co:fax, but has about made up his mind that Kendall didn’t take that route. Recovered Stolen Goods. About a month ago a kit of woodchopper’s tools and some blankets were Stolenfrom Henry Puttemeyer, woodchopper on the Red Dog road. Yesterday morning the loser wanted to take a smoke while at work, and being out of matches went over to -an Italian who-was working near-the V Flume to borrow some. He discovered acrow-bar that had been taken from him with therest of thearticles, and came iato town aftér a warrant for the suspected pacty’s arrest. The latter claims that he bought the implement from a Chinaman, and Bays he can prove it. Ifitis not returned forthwith Mr, Vuttemeyer proposes to have him arrested. BPancing School.

A ee -Saventle Wood Sawers. If the Chinese in and aroun . this city had to depend for their daily bread upon what they could earn by sawing wood, they would be starved out of the country ingide of a month. Until three years ago the Mongolians had a monopoly of such labor, Then white men and boys. crowded them aside, and now the. latter have the whole business, A large number of youngsters, aged from twelve to seventeen years, find steady employment for several weeks every Fall, and-earm an average of two dollars per day each. put the money thus earned to foolish uses, others utilize it to good purpose.. A good example of the latter class, is one little bey of eleven years who contributes largely to his widowed mother's support by giving her all of his earnings, Sieatiedinat Found his Pants.

The officer who had it struck up a conversa” tion with him and asked him if he had seen anything of ‘‘Kendall.” Of course he said no, when the officer went on to minute'y describe the very person who stood: before him. Kendall very naturally feigned ignorance as to his own whereabouts: When the-train came along he bade the officer who was looking for him a hearty farewell, and started for Oregon. The knight of thestar is meantime closely watching every stranger who arrives in Co:fax, but has about made up his mind that Kendall didn’t take that route. Recovered Stolen Goods.
