The son is now. a confirmed opium smigker. When he came up to us and put out his hand we failed to recognize him. Once fair complexioned, mi skin is now sallow, and in his\ eyes could be seen evidence of the id approach of death; once erect, his form now looks as though ib] was withered by time; once a . bright and promising young man, his intellect is now nearly gone, and there heis in a great city without friends or money, his only desire or, thonght being . the damnable drug which has brought him to such shame. When asked why he did not free himself from this deadly habit, he said: ‘I try~ to, I try to—but I will succeed. My God!.I have no ambition—no hope. SometimesIdo not care whether I. quit or not,. and long only for death. I cannot work—I can do nothing to. earn a living, and what am I todo?’ His quivering hands and weak-looking and bent up form fully canvinced us that he could muster up only strength enough to wobble to some filthy, and dingy hole and there suck the life-sapping pipe. Then the poor wretch added: ‘‘My mother is going to send me some money so that Ican goto a doctor and try to be cured of the appetite. The medicine will cost me but twenty dollars.’”? Vain hope! . All the powers of earth could not free him from that curse. His life is fast ebbing away, and the . prayers and tears of a mother— nay, noluman effort can reclaim the lost son.

The-prospects of making ‘a good mine out of the Texas are now more favorablethan at any time since it became the property of the present owners. The company has had many difficulties to contend with, but nevertheless they. have pushed the work along until they have now become satisfied that they have a valuable property. About a year ago they commenced running a tunnel from Deer Creek, andit is in’a distance of about two-hundred and fifty feet, a good ‘. portion of it being in hard: rock, About ten days ago they struck a fine looking ledge, and stopped k ,on the tunnel and commenced running an east” and west drift on the ledge. They run in on the west drift about eighty feet and now have a ledge of a little over five feet, and’ running tieoash. it is a streak of solid ochre ¢ghowing free gold, which will undoubtedly pay $100 or more per ton, and the rest of the ledge looks well, yield $15 or $20 perton. In the east drift.the ledge is a little over a foot and looks’ well. About seventy tons of rock has been taken out, and will be crushed at the Deadwood mill as soon as the roads are passable. o—_———Miner Killed. A man named.
