—— .To Work. Gravel Mines,‘A well-posted hiniek: man suggests that
many gravel claims in Nevada county that
in yeare past were worked by the hydraulic:
process, could be ‘made to pay well by
drifting and having a mill to crush the
gravel, At the Harmony drift mine, near
this city, a {en-stamp mill is kept in opera
tion steadily and crushes 120 tons of gravel
per day, at a total cost of less than $3,000
persmonth, which includes wear and tear of
mill, water: power, screens, quicksilver ahd
é ‘labor. Tt actually costs oily thirteen cents’
per'ton to work the gravel, a No, 12 screen
ie used in the battery. With a twenty
mill it would cost, to work 240 tons,
tee an'nine cents a ton, ‘This is cheaper
and better, it is claimed, than hydraulic
mining, and would suggest the opening up
and working in this manner of more gravel
niines throughout the county, which are ‘so
situated that the building of impounding
dams for hydraulicking would be hardly
pravticable. 5

The. Shamplon’: s New Mill.
Tie balance -of the. machinery for the
‘Champion® Mining Company’s new fortystamp mill has arrived. here and is now
being hauled to the site of the mill, As
yet the framework of the mill building is
only partly up, but the timbers are all
framed and the millwrights are hurrying
the work of getting them up in place. The
work of placing the machinery. will begin
aoon, When the mill,is-completed it will
be one of the best in the State and with the
thirty stamps that are now dropping will
give a large crushing capacity.

Yesterday. afternoon a strike of temarkably rich ore: was made, and in a little while
specimens valued at. over $700. were. taken
out.. The specimyns weighed about seventy
nds, and were brought to town and deposited at the Citizens Bank; The quartz
is white-and is literally filled _w with bright,
‘yellow. gold. 1t is the opinion of some-who
have viewed the specimens’ that they will
yield considerably over $700.
The ledge from which, the apecimens were
taken is about fifteen inches wide and the
strike was made in the shaft at a depth of
forty feet. “It is believed that more of this
rich quartz will -be found, although ‘the
find yesterday may have been only a pocket.

Was.unoonstitutional by reason of inequality
ions an adult could be imprisoned in the . ’
county jail for six months only, while a minor could be sent fora long period to the.

Farland says: ‘It is trae the term of de-.

greater by the judgment of the court than
‘the term of the imprisonment in the County
Jail, or in the States Prison, for the same
offense would be, but it cannot be said that
the punishment inflicted ‘is greater than
could be put upon an adult for the same of-.
fense, The object of the act is not punishment, bat reformation, discipline and education, There is no doubt of the power of
the State to make and enforce provisions tor’
gold-laden-sand into-a-screen-bopper, where:
it is shaken and forced along a spout which
feeds the amalgamators.
The scene of the operations. is. the mouth
of the American river, where for yearsthe
sands have been washed from the placer
mines which were stopped several years ago,
These tailings are said to be rich in gold,
bat the trouble has been to provide apparatus
for removing it. The river at the point
noted is said to be filled with sand, from
which the mining craft will. take hundreds
of dollars’ worth of gold every month.
General Tolinan, the originator of the

is no donbt of its success. He came to California in 1848,

the school provided the boys under 18 years,
who were serving ont a sentence in the
State Prison, could,:if deemed fit subjects
for a training school, be transferred there.
The Supreme Court does not agree that the
provision had the effect of turning the reform school into a penitentiary, ‘‘When a

‘she receives a commutation of sentence, and
