K, Weare. Most California miners who left even third-rate gold placer diggings in 1860 for Washoe or “Silverland” were doomed to disappointment and had abundant cause to regret.the act, 0s pecially-if they depended on prospecting. It was different with those who were assured workin the few 'sd#fe-mines. Wildcats were plentiful. The simon-pure mines were decidedly searce. Thé whole excitement was based-6n-speculation.”-A® silver glam‘our seemed to blind even the naturally astute. The main streets were scarcely passable for the excited crowds, rushing they_knew not where, seeking they knew not what, for perhaps fifty people owned tbe few paying mines. Stock? Yes, all had stock,if worthless paper cculd be called by that name, Like Mark Twain when he was investigating the pre-Adamite foot-prints in the stone quarry at the Carson prison,.I can say: ‘I was there, and I know.”’ ; The average miner did not understand the difference between gold and silver ore, nor did he know that there was no such thing possible asasilver placer formed by the satnecauses as made gold placers. He did not know that however rich his discovery might be, he was powerlessin the hands sf the assayer and thestock-jobber. Too late he learned the difference between ametal like gold which is indestructible. and a natural legal tender transferred directly from the band of nature tothe hand of man, and a metal like silver which is affected in a thousand ways and existing in a thousand forms, and that he could starve on a silver mine existing in its general form because he was:urable to utilize it. In the commencement of our. silver age (the discovery of the Comstock), . with the crude machinery then in use we could scarcely approximate the real value of the find. The first mills gave satisfaction if they returned 65 percent. of the assay test. Now, after 30 years of experimenting, 95 per cent. is obtainable when the ore is not base; The writer was here at the golden dawn but though every miner carried in his pocket a tenderin the shape of gold dust there was no such a boom or boomerang (for it came back on a good many) a8 was experienced in Virginia City. But it wasa stock boom, and though handreds of thousands of dallars changed hands monthly, and even weekly, the money did not come out of the stock, but went into it and generally stayed there. -I was not lured to Washoe by the boom, but had gone there about sixteen months previously. Some shafts had been sunk and some tunnels driven. The ore or rock could not be told by its appearance froni that of the Comstock, which fact gave an opportunity for the highest order of deception. At the commencement of the boom most people thought. it would equal if not excel Virginia City’s, and that the future American. City would eclipse that camp. The ledge was the game, continuous and unbroken, bat the facts that though it wason the same ledge there was no guarantee of pay, and that there never wasa ledge which did not pay in chutes, were ‘ig nored, We held a meeting. Speculators from Gold Hill and Virginia City were coyering the territory. It} was resolved to segregate ourselves from Gold Hill and form a district of ourown. Nature had made it feasible, as there was a divide on the. north between us and Gold Hill, also one on thesouth between us and Lyon county. I was made chairman of the committee -to run the boundary survey-and place th the corner stakes, .After this was done and accepted the time to elect a Recorder was appointed, When it arrived there gathered trom Gold Hill and Virginia City crowd who did not belong ‘in the district and were not eligible to serve or vote. That morning I met a Virginia City man who asked me, *‘Are you running?” “I have not intended to,’’ I replied. . \f°You better not,’’ he said, ‘you will get beat. I am a candidate.” He showed me printed tiukets. It was plain our little colony was going to be over-run. Under the circumstances I concluded to stand in, The Nevada City contingent was the strongest in Virginia City. George I. Lammon and Pat Mulcahey (afterwards Sheriff) were doing business. together. But the man I mainly depended on was George H. Gerrend, a noted desperado who I assisted to escape when he killed a man at Camptonville, He was dealing 4aro for Tom Bnekner. Long Brown, who used tobe at. Mrs. Sweemp’s near the Half-Mile Honse of Nevada City, kept a livery. stable on the Divide, Nevada City was solid and true. J secureda fine horse from Brown, with a reserve ifI should ride him down. Ferrend agreed to get a . horse and arm himeelf, to get a friend to dothe same, and to be at the polls on guard. ‘I know every tough in Virginia and Gold Hill,” said he “and they all know me.” ‘He had killed three men, besides, being with Lopez in Cuba aud Walker in. Nicaragua. . I knew he would come and that it}: would cost me two or three hundred A Pee hated tee reer mont and two in ihe hola and ro ee oo aa dollars whether I was elected or not. mn = meseyen eeeraer “shots nae the door and Wilson with a similar armament on the other side. The minute an outsider came up to vote he was to “‘git —— quick.” I was elected. It was afairand a proper election. I had ridden to every mine and cabin and explained that my tickets could not be duplicated, being on tinted paper the like of which could not be found nearer than Virginia City. I opened an office in the building with a popular saloon. A justice of the peace kept the saloon. Business flourished. Everything was recorded, ledge or no ledge. One morning I recorded ten claims for a party. The fee was 75 cents a claim. About noon another party called on me to survey and record some ground. I went to the lo-. cation and upon seeing it said: “It won’t do, boys, I recorded this once teday.”” ‘The —— you did,” was the was told, “‘you are the Recorder and your business is to record. You ain’t other was a fraud. You record and we’ll have the stock out before the other fellows wake up. What. did they call the claim?” ‘The May= flewer,”’? I responded. ‘‘Well,’’ said they, ‘‘this is the Native American. We’ll go them one better.” Both companies incorporated and issued stock. The bestof it is, there was no “more sign of a ledge than there is in the-palm of my band. No tewn ever went up more suddenly than did American City. The months of January.and February were able, the grade a turnpike, The excitement was intense. As in_the building of Solomon’s Temple, there was no stop to the seund of the hammer and the saw. Night and day they could be heard. Still there was nothing to warrantit. In one year it was dead. On every. side were signs— some even gildod—on which were the names of mines which had no real existence. The whole vista was silvery. The whole vocabulary of the English Janguage was exhausted to find names which would qualify with Silver asthe adjective. Silver Breeze, silver Glance, Silver Torrent, were among them. Silver Reef and Silver Vale, two large companies claiming the same ground, sank near each other. They worked day and night to reach the ledge first. One beat the other sufficiently to get low enough to run a drift which they filled with logs and thus blockaded the further descent of their opponents. And still there wasno ledge, though to the unitiated it was a ‘sure thing,” and the stock sold well. I was inthe swim and located the Esperanza, The company afterward changed the name to the Mother Lumpkin in honor ofthe county in in Missouri that they came from. They did not want any high-flown names. Another claim I named the Silurian was so incorporated. They said it would draw attention, nobody knowing whatit meant. I at one time held 1,000 shares in this claim and was offered $6. share for it. I let 100 shares go at that price and three days after I could nothave got $100 for it all. The whole thing -eollapsed, the bottom falling entirely out. Like a mushroom, it-grew in a night and died in a day. The real reason. was that some owners who had been deceived wished tounload. They took samples of ore from some of the most notable mines and sent them to San Francisco saying they came. from an entirely different region on the Truckeé. The returna were definite and conclusive: Gold, none; silver, atrace; fee, $5. They of course were for sale and that. soon commenced to bear the stock. The truth soon leaked out. There were drifts in some of the mines where Comatock ore hadbeen colonized, and the eclipse being off people began to Bee, Some houses were abandoned, some taken to Virginia City and Gold Hill. Shafthouses and shops were left with the tools in them because they were not paid for and noone cared to represent them. My occupation was gone, but anksto my surface mining experiénce around Nevada CityI had while surveying claims for silver lodes noted strong indications of gold in the surface. E proceeded to prospect the same and was successful, to the’ astonishment of the one-idea people, I built a reservoir to catch the water of tunnels. By three hours work a day I made good wages, but that was too good to last. The water was mine when. out of the tunnels, but the Gold Hill Water Company purchased the main tunnel (the Globe) and toek the water from within. Sol fell-a victim to a bloated corporation. 1 was not beaten altogether, however. I went into the tunnel’and found the stratum from whence flowed the water. Getting the grade of the tunnel, which was in 1,600 feet; I-went around the spur to the next ravine and foundI could tap the supply 66 feet deeper. The Water Compuny saw what I was up to and gave me $800 not to do it, Sol got back to Nevada City. — Scrorua is tranemitted from pargnt to child, and thus becomes a family inheritance for generations.

Itis a prime necessity ef health that the action of the bowels should be kept regular. But the way to overcome a temporary fit of constipation, or to remedy chronic costiveness, is not to deluge the stomach and drench the bowels with purgatives of violent and painful action. The happy medium between an inoperative and violent cathartic is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which acts just sufficiently upon the bowels to relax them, without pain,and while being a wholesome tonic, as well as aperient, has the effect of «strengthening both them and the stomach, and promoting the well being of the whole internal economy.

K, Weare. Most California miners who left even third-rate gold placer diggings in 1860 for Washoe or “Silverland” were doomed to disappointment and had abundant cause to regret.the act, 0s pecially-if they depended on prospecting. It was different with those who were assured workin the few 'sd#fe-mines. Wildcats were plentiful. The simon-pure mines were decidedly searce. Thé whole excitement was based-6n-speculation.”-A® silver glam‘our seemed to blind even the naturally astute. The main streets were scarcely passable for the excited crowds, rushing they_knew not where, seeking they knew not what, for perhaps fifty people owned tbe few paying mines. Stock? Yes, all had stock,if worthless paper cculd be called by that name, Like Mark Twain when he was investigating the pre-Adamite foot-prints in the stone quarry at the Carson prison,.I can say: ‘I was there, and I know.”’ ; The average miner did not understand the difference between gold and silver ore, nor did he know that there was no such thing possible asasilver placer formed by the satnecauses as made gold placers. He did not know that however rich his discovery might be, he was powerlessin the hands sf the assayer and thestock-jobber. Too late he learned the difference between ametal like gold which is indestructible. and a natural legal tender transferred directly from the band of nature tothe hand of man, and a metal like silver which is affected in a thousand ways and existing in a thousand forms, and that he could starve on a silver mine existing in its general form because he was:urable to utilize it. In the commencement of our. silver age (the discovery of the Comstock), . with the crude machinery then in use we could scarcely approximate the real value of the find. The first mills gave satisfaction if they returned 65 percent. of the assay test. Now, after 30 years of experimenting, 95 per cent. is obtainable when the ore is not base; The writer was here at the golden dawn but though every miner carried in his pocket a tenderin the shape of gold dust there was no such a boom or boomerang (for it came back on a good many) a8 was experienced in Virginia City. But it wasa stock boom, and though handreds of thousands of dallars changed hands monthly, and even weekly, the money did not come out of the stock, but went into it and generally stayed there. -I was not lured to Washoe by the boom, but had gone there about sixteen months previously. Some shafts had been sunk and some tunnels driven. The ore or rock could not be told by its appearance froni that of the Comstock, which fact gave an opportunity for the highest order of deception. At the commencement of the boom most people thought. it would equal if not excel Virginia City’s, and that the future American. City would eclipse that camp. The ledge was the game, continuous and unbroken, bat the facts that though it wason the same ledge there was no guarantee of pay, and that there never wasa ledge which did not pay in chutes, were ‘ig nored, We held a meeting. Speculators from Gold Hill and Virginia City were coyering the territory. It} was resolved to segregate ourselves from Gold Hill and form a district of ourown. Nature had made it feasible, as there was a divide on the. north between us and Gold Hill, also one on thesouth between us and Lyon county. I was made chairman of the committee -to run the boundary survey-and place th the corner stakes, .After this was done and accepted the time to elect a Recorder was appointed, When it arrived there gathered trom Gold Hill and Virginia City crowd who did not belong ‘in the district and were not eligible to serve or vote. That morning I met a Virginia City man who asked me, *‘Are you running?” “I have not intended to,’’ I replied. . \f°You better not,’’ he said, ‘you will get beat. I am a candidate.” He showed me printed tiukets. It was plain our little colony was going to be over-run. Under the circumstances I concluded to stand in, The Nevada City contingent was the strongest in Virginia City. George I. Lammon and Pat Mulcahey (afterwards Sheriff) were doing business. together. But the man I mainly depended on was George H. Gerrend, a noted desperado who I assisted to escape when he killed a man at Camptonville, He was dealing 4aro for Tom Bnekner. Long Brown, who used tobe at. Mrs. Sweemp’s near the Half-Mile Honse of Nevada City, kept a livery. stable on the Divide, Nevada City was solid and true. J secureda fine horse from Brown, with a reserve ifI should ride him down. Ferrend agreed to get a . horse and arm himeelf, to get a friend to dothe same, and to be at the polls on guard. ‘I know every tough in Virginia and Gold Hill,” said he “and they all know me.” ‘He had killed three men, besides, being with Lopez in Cuba aud Walker in. Nicaragua. . I knew he would come and that it}: would cost me two or three hundred A Pee hated tee reer mont and two in ihe hola and ro ee oo aa dollars whether I was elected or not. mn = meseyen eeeraer “shots nae the door and Wilson with a similar armament on the other side. The minute an outsider came up to vote he was to “‘git —— quick.” I was elected. It was afairand a proper election. I had ridden to every mine and cabin and explained that my tickets could not be duplicated, being on tinted paper the like of which could not be found nearer than Virginia City. I opened an office in the building with a popular saloon. A justice of the peace kept the saloon. Business flourished. Everything was recorded, ledge or no ledge. One morning I recorded ten claims for a party. The fee was 75 cents a claim. About noon another party called on me to survey and record some ground. I went to the lo-. cation and upon seeing it said: “It won’t do, boys, I recorded this once teday.”” ‘The —— you did,” was the was told, “‘you are the Recorder and your business is to record. You ain’t other was a fraud. You record and we’ll have the stock out before the other fellows wake up. What. did they call the claim?” ‘The May= flewer,”’? I responded. ‘‘Well,’’ said they, ‘‘this is the Native American. We’ll go them one better.” Both companies incorporated and issued stock. The bestof it is, there was no “more sign of a ledge than there is in the-palm of my band. No tewn ever went up more suddenly than did American City. The months of January.and February were able, the grade a turnpike, The excitement was intense. As in_the building of Solomon’s Temple, there was no stop to the seund of the hammer and the saw. Night and day they could be heard. Still there was nothing to warrantit. In one year it was dead. On every. side were signs— some even gildod—on which were the names of mines which had no real existence. The whole vista was silvery. The whole vocabulary of the English Janguage was exhausted to find names which would qualify with Silver asthe adjective. Silver Breeze, silver Glance, Silver Torrent, were among them. Silver Reef and Silver Vale, two large companies claiming the same ground, sank near each other. They worked day and night to reach the ledge first. One beat the other sufficiently to get low enough to run a drift which they filled with logs and thus blockaded the further descent of their opponents. And still there wasno ledge, though to the unitiated it was a ‘sure thing,” and the stock sold well. I was inthe swim and located the Esperanza, The company afterward changed the name to the Mother Lumpkin in honor ofthe county in in Missouri that they came from. They did not want any high-flown names. Another claim I named the Silurian was so incorporated. They said it would draw attention, nobody knowing whatit meant. I at one time held 1,000 shares in this claim and was offered $6. share for it. I let 100 shares go at that price and three days after I could nothave got $100 for it all. The whole thing -eollapsed, the bottom falling entirely out. Like a mushroom, it-grew in a night and died in a day. The real reason. was that some owners who had been deceived wished tounload. They took samples of ore from some of the most notable mines and sent them to San Francisco saying they came. from an entirely different region on the Truckeé. The returna were definite and conclusive: Gold, none; silver, atrace; fee, $5. They of course were for sale and that. soon commenced to bear the stock. The truth soon leaked out. There were drifts in some of the mines where Comatock ore hadbeen colonized, and the eclipse being off people began to Bee, Some houses were abandoned, some taken to Virginia City and Gold Hill. Shafthouses and shops were left with the tools in them because they were not paid for and noone cared to represent them. My occupation was gone, but anksto my surface mining experiénce around Nevada CityI had while surveying claims for silver lodes noted strong indications of gold in the surface. E proceeded to prospect the same and was successful, to the’ astonishment of the one-idea people, I built a reservoir to catch the water of tunnels. By three hours work a day I made good wages, but that was too good to last. The water was mine when. out of the tunnels, but the Gold Hill Water Company purchased the main tunnel (the Globe) and toek the water from within. Sol fell-a victim to a bloated corporation. 1 was not beaten altogether, however. I went into the tunnel’and found the stratum from whence flowed the water. Getting the grade of the tunnel, which was in 1,600 feet; I-went around the spur to the next ravine and foundI could tap the supply 66 feet deeper. The Water Compuny saw what I was up to and gave me $800 not to do it, Sol got back to Nevada City. — Scrorua is tranemitted from pargnt to child, and thus becomes a family inheritance for generations.

Itis a prime necessity ef health that the action of the bowels should be kept regular. But the way to overcome a temporary fit of constipation, or to remedy chronic costiveness, is not to deluge the stomach and drench the bowels with purgatives of violent and painful action. The happy medium between an inoperative and violent cathartic is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which acts just sufficiently upon the bowels to relax them, without pain,and while being a wholesome tonic, as well as aperient, has the effect of «strengthening both them and the stomach, and promoting the well being of the whole internal economy.
