The Fire Above Washington.
The forest fire which started about
two weeks ago in the vicinity of the
Lindsey mine above the town of
Washington damaged that company
to-the extent of some $5,000, the
boarding house andthe old and new
mills being wiped out of existence. . It
has swept clean the south side of the
ridge between Canyon creek and the
South Yuba and is now at the Anderson mine on Canyon creék as well as
burning up Fall creek. The towns of
Washington and Ormonde were saved
from destruction by the builiing of
backfires, and White -brothers’ ranch
at the mouth of Canyon creek had a
close call. Large nnmbers of cattle
from the lower country were being
pastured on the ridge,-and*they have
been scattered in all directions by the
flames. Many.men have been out for
a week fighting the fire and now have
it fairly under control. If it get=
across Canycn creek there is a likelihood of the Baltic and Erie mining
works being burned.

The forest fire which has been
burningin Little York township for
three weeks on Friday last reached

THE CENT! ENNIAL.
Werk About te be Resumed on
That Claim.
Saturday morning’s Virginia City
Enterprise says: :
A special called meeting of the
Board of Trustees of the Centennial
Gravel Gold Mining Gompany was
held yesterday afternoon at the office
of the company in Gold Hill. It was
resolved to resume work in the development of the mine (situated in
Washington township, Nevada county)
which was suspended some months
ago. A new tunnel is to ‘be slarted
at a point which prospecting work
done heretofore, as well as work
in neighboring mines, has demonstrated to be the most eligible and
advantageous, and sure to intersect
the main. gravel channel which runs
through the Centennial ground.
This tunnel will be not far from the
first tunnel run by the company, in
which good pay gravel, carrying
coarse gold, was developed. It was
found to be toohigh, however, anda
heavy stream of water flowing in and
from the gravel channel prevented
sinking or-working-dewn to the bedrock. The new tunnel will be lower
down, and run in the bedrock beneath
the gravel bed or channel. The
knowledge and experience gained at a
heavy cost by the company in its
long-comtinued and ‘expensive work,
cannot but prove effectual in this resumption of operations,
Henry Richards, who has so effectively.superintended and conducted
the work during the last two or three
years, arrived from Nevada City yesYerday. He was present at the meeting, and will conduct the resumption
of work as soon as practicable. Secretary James, the well-known Gold Hill
assayer,-will go over to the mine
next week in order to attend to the
work resumption and the geiieral
affairs of the company.
An assessment of three cents per
share was levied, to square up liabilities and defray future expenses.

Nevada County Grapes.
Felix Gillet, the Nevada City nurseryman, sent a box of three varieties of
grapes to the State Board of Horticulture meeting which was held in San
Francisco Friday. Accompanying the
grapes was the following letter:
Barren Hitt ‘oie
Nevapa Cry, Sept. 25, 1889.
Edward J. Wickeson, Secretary State
Horticultural Society—Dear Sin: Today I send by express a box containing samples of grapes, not precisely
to show you what can be done in that
line right in the mountains at an elevation of 2,500 feet, but rather to show
yon wat beautiful and valuable varieties are some of those grapes that I
have introduced from abroad. * * *
The red is the Flame of Tokay, which,
you will notice, colors well in the
mountains. The white is the Blanc
de Calabre, a very fine and good table
variety, with a tough stem and thick
skin, making it a very nice shipping
grape. Inthe same.compartment you
will find duly labeled four brariches of
Muscat Sarbelle, a large and delicious
Muscat. The blue is the Ramonis of
Transylvania, a very large dark-blue
grape and a good eating grape. My
collection of grapes number 241 varieties, which I have divided into five
classes, viz; Extra Early, Early, Medium, Medium Late and Very Late.
The feur varieties contained in the box
belong to the fourth epoch of maturity
or medium late and at this altitude
(2,500 feet) ripen about the middle of
September. * * * The Ramonia
always matures in this altitude, while
the Cornichon and Emperor do not.
