We have been handed the following for publication, the article being. copied from the Arizona Enterprise of January 23rd: Epiror EnrErrrisk—Do the people of Tucson know what great prophets,are among them in the persons of the two ladies who are condneting the salvation army meetings? Don’t be alraid to go and see. Some people are ashamed to be seen at such meetings, Iwas once. I have changed my mind about these people and their methods. I have been in many evangelistic meetings, but I have never seen any better conducted than those held nightly in the barracks, The singing is soft, gentle and moving. The prayers are earnest and take. hold of the heart. The addresses are scriptural, direct and testing, To my mind they speak as moved by_ the Holy Ghost; It,is to me, touching to see ladies of such +efinement, education and intelligence, engage in a work se unselfish, so laborious and_so_self-denying night after night, with so little remuneration, It is only because the love of God is in their salvation of the lost, Truly an open door is presented to them. There is no such other opportunity in Tucson for doing good, The large number of young: men gathered theré on Sabbath night. makes such an audience as any minister would be proud to address, As the meetings are held at an hour when the church services are over, let the church people go. They are sure to get good and give encouragement to those most worthy ser4 vants of the Lord, It pained me to hear men talking and making sport while the bible was being read and the address delivered. It indicates the depth of depravity—a downright meainess, that renders such characters alWAIT AWHILE. Do Not Be in a Hurry to Visit the Midwinter Fair. San Francisco, February 5, 1894. Eprror Transcript: To one who has not had the opportunity of visiting the California Midwinter International Expositidn in San Francisco, the dailies of that city convey some impressions which are quite erroneous, Not that they state anything which is not true; but at times they seem, in a slight degree, to éxaggerate the truth. By this exaggeration of factsand enlargement of descriptions they lead the people of the interior to believe that a visit to San’ Francisco would in every respect fulfill_all their expectations. reader have any intention of coming to San Francisco for the sole purpose of ** doing the Fair,” I should say to hin—wait. To be candid, I really think that he would return to Nevada City disappointed; if not disgusted, with his trip. My reasons for the above statements are as follows: Very few of the exhibitsin the main buildings (Mechanical Arts, Liberal Arts aud Fine Arts) are as yet set and com factures Building have not-yet even arrived, ' and these which have now stand in cases, obstructing passage ways and giving a disorderly appearance to the building. The reader should not for one moment be misled by the illustrations in the dailies of the metropolis. The majority of them represent exhibits as they are to appear when cem plete, not as they now are. . In Machinery Hall comparatively fe pieces of machinery are in motion, most of them not being connected with the main . steam supply pipes as yet. The mineral displays-are not *yet--setandthe mining machinery (of most interest to a Nevada Cityan).is silent, : If none of the main-exhibits are yet placed, what is that’ which attracts the crowds of San Francisco peopledaily to the Sunset City ? Nothing more nor Jess than the Midway Plaisance. This most important adjunct to the exposition is already in full blast and cannot be praised too highly for lessons it teaches in customs of lands heard from in books only. From time to time I shall endeavor to point out to the native of Nevada City the nature of the various shows in the Midway, and se give . @ rope which opens a stopcock and filla the plete. Many-of the displays for the Maun~,Are capable of holding the cage and contents "stationary ‘at any point either in going up NEW ELEVATOR. The Invention. of Emil Schutz of Sierra City. The Downieville Messenger gives the following description of a new elevator in use at the Gold Bluff mine: The new elevator at the Gold Bluff mill is the invention of Emil Schutz of Sierra City. It. is on the principle of a ‘“‘teeter-totter”—one side exactly balancing the other. On one side is a large cage bn which a loaded car is run to be hoisted to the top of the mill. On the other is a large iron water tank capable of holding sufficient water to raise the car, load and carman te the top. The carman from his station at the bottem pulls tank with water, The tank then descends and the cage containing car, carman and all rises to the top of the bin where the car is dumped. —The-carman then pulls another rope which opens a valve at the bottom of the tank and lets the water. out. the cage and car now being the heaviest descends, but its movement is always under the control of the operator or carmay. The cage is previded with strong brakes which or coming down, The whole is hung en an eight-foot wheel by an inch and a -half wire rope which is capable.of holding more than five times the weight usually put upon it. It is ene’of the best inventions for a mill we:have ever seen and will befere long, we imagine, be in use in other mines throughout the State. Rough Times. ‘aac } An Idaho exchange says that the intensity of the financial stringency was illustrated in Moscow, Idaho, last week, when a livery stable outfit was sold at Sheriff's sale. Buggies sold at from $8 to $10. each, two-seated wagons, nearly new, at $13 each, and fifteen horses sold at 75 cents each. eis Sree NEVADA CITY HOTEL ARRIVALS.
