WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
Personal and Social Items Gleaned
Here and There.
Mr. and Mrs, G. G, Gaylord take
their departure the latter part of
this week for a visit to their former
home in Illinois, 2 :
M. Rosenberg of the Palace Dry
Goods Store left Sunday for Berlin.
He will retura next autumn, Mr.
Rosenberg will pay his respects to
Minister Sergent while “Unter den
Linden.”
Tidings: Mr. Louis Chalmers of
Silver Mountain, Alpine county, is
‘ooking at the mines of . Nevada
county. Mr: Chalmers is one of the
oldest and best miners in the State.
He is-in gcod hands, Captain. James
——~-Benalleckbeing the entertainer of
the visitor from Alpine county,
“Frank A. Wise came down on
snow-shoes Snnday from.the Centennial mine in Washington township. He reports the mine to be in
& very encourage‘ng condition, and
will probably return there to-day.
Mr. Bishop is still in the City and
will not go up till thé snow ig off
sufficiently so he can ride on a stage,
Mrs, John Spaulding and family
have removed from Dutch Flat to
Siegler Springs, Lake county. The
Seigler Springs property belongs to
Mr. Spaulding and as it became nec.
essary to have some one to look
after it, he.concluded to remove his
family there to permanently, reside.
Mr. Spaulding himself will retain
his position as Superintendent of the
Hayward claims at You Bet and
the Yuba Ditch property.
A Pioneer “‘Across the River.”
Charles Woolsen Smith, or as he
was familiarly called, ‘Charlie’
Smith, one of Grass Valley’s oldest
residents, died at that place on
Sunday evening. Mr. Smith had
been ill for about a year, sometimes
at death’s door and then improving.
A few weeks ago he got much better
and hopes were entertained that he
would recover, but notwithstanding
he had the best medical attendance,
and everything was done to build up
his shattered constitution, a reaction
took place which terminated in his
death. Charlie was a whole-souled
man, generous to a fault, and leaves
not only a loving family to. mourn
his loss, but a long Jist of acquaintances who were firmly attached to
him. The funeral wil! take place on
Wednesday, (to-morrow) under the
auspices of the Masonic fraternity: to
which he belonged. ‘Nevada Commandery, No. 6, Knights Templar,
will act as escort,
The Feast of Passover.
The Hebrew festival of Pesach or
passover-is-in--progress~this week,
end will continue for seven days
This holiday commemorates the 0ccasion of the preservation of the first
born children of the Isrealites from
the plague at the time they were held
in bondage in Egypt. The tradition,
as narrated in the Talmud—that volume of Rabbinical lore—is that. the
Angel of the Lord sprinkeled the
doors of the Hebrews with the blood of
a sacred lamb, That the inmates of 3
the houses thus marked were saved
from the blight’'which attacked the
Egyptians. The anniversary is also
observed by the eating of unleavened
bread in the shape of huge diske called matzos. These are substituted
for bread during the entire holidays.
The two first days are observed with
greater respect by the Jews then any
of the others, and it is presumed
that the feast will be observed by
them for all time, ‘

Meck anics’ Lien Law.
In Omsby vs. the Alpha Gold Mining Co., the Superior Court on yesterday was occupied in heavy argument on demurrers to the’ complaints. The plaintiff and iutervenors pérformed labor and ‘furnished materials to be used in the mine,
between two dates set forth in their
pleadings, ‘at various times, but all
under) one general contract. The
defendent. claims that—each day’s
labor and installment of materials
was a distinct contract. and performance that required alien to be
filed for each. he issue involved
is very important to miners and
laborers whose wages are estimated
atso much per day, because if the
ground taken by the defendant is
correct, it. will practically nullify
the] lawfas tothem, Counselor Burrous for the plaintiff, m his argument drew an {analogy between the
poor wretches who were executed in
old times by being built up in the
walls of buildings, and the laborers
and miners of to-day who ‘*builtup in
the edifices’ and mines on. which
they labored the richest portions of
their own brawa}end ‘blood and
bran and nerve.”
* Death of Mrs. Kelly.
Mrs. Catherine Kelly died on
Saturday last at: the family residence, at the Pennsylvania mine
in this city. Deceased was bori in
Ireland in 1840, and when 16 years
of age immigrated to the United
States. She lived in New York
City until 1861, when she came to
California and ‘settled in Benecia,
“where she married Mr Kelly in 1862.
During that year they removed to
Virginia City, and resided there until 1865, when they came to Nevada
City where they have since resided.
Mrs. Kelly was sick about five weeks,
and though her sufferings were severe,
she bore them with fortitude, until
released by death. She was an exemplary woman in all her ways, and
commanded the! esteem and respect
of all who knew her. She leaves a
large family—seven boys and one
girl—for a sorrowing husband and
place from the Catholic Church
yesterday.
