city today. Mr. Hill informs us that
they have their tunnel in 250 feet, and
have fltruck fine free milling ore. He
has numerous specimens of the ore, and
the gold can be plainly seen on the sur
face with the naked eye. When a mag

surface ot the ore fairly glitters with the
shining metal. As far aa can be judged,
there is a large quantity of this ore, and
that Messrs. Hill and Cradlebaugh have

Vebber Varney, or as ho was better

14 years, 0 months and 15. days old. He
woe an exceptionally bright boy, woe
obedient and good naturtd, and on ac
count of his industrious disposition was
a great help to ills parents at home and
at tho place of business in which Mr.
Varney wob until recently engaged.
Ho was feeling slightly indisposed for
eovorol days before he was taken sick,
but until Wednesday his malady was
not considered serious. On that day he
becamo bo ill that a physician was
called, but when ho arrived the little
fellow was unconscious and there could
be no doubt that he was suffering from
nn attack of cerebro spinal meningitis.
HopeB of his recovery were entertained
until an hour before his death, when a
blood vessel in his head bursted and the
attending physician saw that he waa
past all medical aid.
The funeral will be held at 2 p, in. to
morrow from the Episcopal church.
Friends of the family are cordially in
