Sacramento Daily Record-Union Thursday, July 1, 1880 MINING NOTES Chinamen have found placer mines along Lundy creek, Mono county. The Big Flat mines, Del Norte county, are using 1.400 inches of water. The Butte (Montana) Miner reports the collapse of the Yago mining excitement. The rich copper mines of Railroad District, eastern Nevada, are being prospected The hoisting works of the New York mines, near Nevada City, were burned on the 27th. The Ontario Mining Company of Utah consumes fifty tons of coal every twenty-four hours. The new town of Mule Pass, near Tombstone, Arizona, is called Bisbee. The mines there are copper. The new 80-stamp mill at the Vulture mine, Maricopa county,. Arizona, when completed will be 170 feet long and about 46 wide. Since the 9th of March last the Constitution mill, says the Tombstone (A.T.) Nugget, has produced half a million dollars in bullion. Almy, Wyoming, is an important coalmining district. Several hundred men are employed. The Central and Union Pacific Railroad Companies own most of the mines in this region. The gold dry-washing machine was recently tried at Oroville. Out of 500 pounds of tailings about a pound of black sand was extracted, in which could be plainly seen about 25 cents worth of gold. The whole operation was performed in less than five minutes. A mine which has recently been purchased in Denver, Col., for $65,000, was discovered by two children aged 9 and 10 years. The were ìplaying mineî at the time, and had dug down four feet on the Little Chief, near Ruby Hill, drilling and blasting five feet more until a valuable body of ore was brought to light. A mining expert who has recently returned from Arizona informs the Truckee Republican that it is the richest country in mineral he ever saw. The veins are large and the ore exceedingly rich. He says new strikes are made almost daily, and no matter in what direction one goes in the mountain districts, gold-bearing veins are found. It is well worth any personís time to travel many a mile to see the working of the great hydraulic mine near this city, says the Nevada City Transcript, owned by the Blue Tent Consolidated Company. A force of 130 men are employed in the various departments and a head of 2,500 inches of water is used in washing. The average daily clean-ups are $1,000. The banks are high and the dirt hard, requiring much blasting. This season the Narrow Gauge Railroad Company have delivered to the Blue Tent Company 60,000 pounds of black powder and upwards of 4,000 pounds of giant. Two blasts, aggregating 2,000 kegs of powder, are now being arranged for, and will be fired this week. The Bald Mountain Mining Company of Forest City, Sierra county, have adopted a new mode of working their mine. They let out all their work by contract, fixing their own price. They pay so much for each carload of gravel delivered at the dumps, and the car must contain a certain quantity of gravel. They furnish all the material for tunneling purposes, and let out the work required under agreement. At first they found great difficulty in procuring laborers under the new system, but eventually men took hold of the work and found, after experimenting for a number of days, that by putting in a faithful dayís work, they found make more money per day than they formally did under the old system. The mines is paying as well if not better than it ever did, and gives promise of doing so for years yet to come.

DUTCH FLAT, June 3oth - A shooting and stabbing affray occurred here at 4:30 this afternoon between two miners - An Austrian and a Swede. The trouble originated in the mine, about a sledge. The Austrian then threatened to kill the Swede. The Swede came to town to procure the otherís arrest, taking his gun along for defense, but not finding a Constable, went into a saloon to wait. The Austrian rushed in on him, when he fired one shot and ran across the street into a dry goods store, followed by the Austrian, who stabbed him in the back of the neck.

Murder and Suicide VISALIA, June 30th - Last night about 11:30 oíclock a man by the name of Charles CELLER, in a dance-house, shot Miss Nelly BRADY and then killed himself in the same manner. According to the girlís story, as told to her companions, she had accompanied him, her seducer, from her home in San Francisco to Tulare county, where they had lived for about a month, he forcing her to follow a life of shame to support him. She wished to go back to her parents, but he would not let her. At last her condition became unbearable, and she left him, and notwithstanding his appeals she refused to return. Last night he approached the dance- house where they had been stopping, and fired through the open window at her, the ball taking effect in her left ear. She fell to the floor and died in a few moments. He then placed the pistol to his right temple and fired, falling dead.

SAN FRANCISCO ITEMS [From San Francisco exchanges of June 30th.] The steamer City of Tokio will leave for China and Japan on Saturday next. Thirteen ìstreet walkersî arrested last evening were fined $5 each in the Police Court to-day. There are now 1,373 names on the roll of the Garfield Invincibles, and it is the largest political club in the city. George H. LUPTON, convicted in Judge FERRALís Court with assault with intent to murder officer CLARK, was to-day sentenced to San Quentin for fourteen years. The editor of the Examiner recently met a man who had not voted for eight years, but this time intends to vote for Hancock. The poor fellow has been in San Quentin. Postmaster COEY has received a letter from Washington, notifying him that on and after July 1st next, under an agreement with the British office executed on the 18th instant, packets of samples of merchandise may be exchanged in the international mails between the two countries up to 12 inches in length, 7 inches in width, 4 inches in depth, and 12 ounces in weight. A counterfeit $100 bank note was found in the Sub-Treasury office in this city. It was sent to Washington, and then a description of it was forwarded here to United States Detective DINNEGARR, who took the matter in hand and traced it to the Bank of Sonoma, from there to the Postmaster of Petaluma, who reported that he had received it from the San Francisco post office in a package of $800. The note has been stamped as counterfeit, and the postoffice will have to make it good. The Census Supervisor for this district, Henry G. LANGLEY, reports that 214 of the 229 enumerators of this district have deposited their lists with him, leaving fifteen lists to come in. To-day is the last day for making returns. The schedules are being thoroughly examined to ascertain if any deficiencies exist. The approximate population of the city will be ready for the press the latter part of this week. The Chinese population will probably fall short of 20,000, and it is understood from a trustworthy source that the white population of the city is considerably below 240,000. The safe return of the United States steamer Pensacola to this port after becoming disabled on her late cruise to the North, is doubtless due to the ingenuity of her Past Assistant Engineer, G.W. STIVERS. At the time of the accident, near the mouth of the Columbia river, and when the ship was in imminent danger of being lost, that officer suggested wrapping the broken crank with wire-cable that would stand a strain of sixty tons. This was done under his supervision, and the vessel steamed in that condition for forty-eight hours, and on her arrival to port everything was found to be perfectly solid. Had this not been done, the ship would in all probability have drifted on the rocks and been lose, as she was completely disabled, and as there was a perfect calm, the sails could not have been used.
