We hope, for the sake of the children, that rumor lies, Mrs,. Mills has purchased the small lot adjoining the residence of Geo. 8. Hupp,on Main street, where she will erect a millinery store. The Wyoming Mining Company have closed down their mill for the purpose of putting ina new hurdygurdy wheel and new water pipes. The free reading room on Broad street willbe regularly opened this week. A handsome new Brussels carpet was laid yesterday, aud the furniture is being put in place. The Odd Fellows have ordered new regalias, It is thought this order will have a grand celebration in this city on the 26th of April, which is the anniversary of the order. A carrot that tipped the scales at 4} pounds adorned this writer’s desk yesterday. It was raised on the ranch of Conrad Grissell at Washington, and was found very tender. and aweet when prepared for the table. Offi.er Field arrested Bill Pearson Saturday night for vagrancy. The old man was sothoroughly used up that it was deemed advisable by the authorities to send him to the County Hospital where he will probably remain for an eeetnine period to come. There is talk of organizing a firstclass base ball club, at this city. The boys have got their mad up, and swear they will beat the True Blues‘and Athletics before next sumterial all the way from New York State. A Good Drill, A gentleman of this city has invented a drill which is said, by men who are good judges, to excel anything ever before invented in that line. It has been thoroughly tested in the very hardest kind of rock to be found in the county, and is doing its work to perfection. The cost is about two-thirds less than the Burleigh, Ingersoll or any other of the high toned drills in use. It will do as much work as any of them at. a great deal less expense. The gentleman invented the drill for his-own use in running a long tunnel, and weare not. informed whether he will get out a patent for it, or whether he will attempt to introduce it into the market. ; Ivy Social Club Party. The Ivy Social Club will give a party at Hont’s Hall on the evening of the 26th instant. This old and &. popular organization will spare no pains in making the coming event oushine all of ir former ~gatherings. The advertisement of Es party appears to-day. IS Aunual Election A. L. of H.

Enquire George Cook, the gold ba? swindler, who was found guilty last August of obtaining money under fal-e pretenses, and was sentenced to serve one year in the County Jail and pay a fine of $100, or in default of the latter to serve an additional 100 days’ imprisonment, escaped from custody Saturday, although this is the first information . most ol our readers will have of the fact. Cook has been ‘allowed, while the repairs have been going on in the cells and corridors, to occupy apartments over the jail proper,’ as it was feared he might execute some plan of escape in conjunction with Patterson and Dursey. Saturday noon the key to this apartment, which is not secure to say the least, was left iv the lock on the outside and all hands around the Court House went to dinner, While they were gone Cook dressed himself in his finest clothes, took his overcoat, reached through the grating with a bent wire and unlocked the door, and cooly sauntered away for parts unknown. The officials did not discover his absence till dinner was brought to the prisoners at 4 o’clock in the afternoon. This is the second ‘time Cook has escaped from the Jail. The first time was when, just previous to his trial, McCarthy, Smothers and ho dug their way-through the rear stone wall. Cook and McCarthy were reeaptured after a long and expensive chase, but Smothers is still at large. Couk was found in Lake county, and this county had to pay out nearly $150 te get him back, The Supervisors will probably not relish spending any more money on him after this last experience. Superior Court. The following business was transacted in the Superior Court yesterday, Judge John Caldwell presiding: Uttin vs. Lord, Demurrer sustained as to first ground aud overruled us to second. Ladenburg et al vs. Wilson et. al. Demurrer overruled, Champion M, Co. vs. N. Merritield M. C», Demurrer overruled in both cases. 20 days given to amend, Stover vs. Murchie. Demurrer to complaint set for hearing Wednesday. Wentworth vs. Chappell. . Motion to retax costs set for hearing Wednesday. The People vs, Wah Lee, — Plaintiff pleads guilty tocharge of receiving stolen goods. ~ Sentenced to one day’s imprisonment in the County Jail and to pay a fine of $100. The Blue Tent Suit. The Appeal says that W. A. Skidmore has filed in the Superior Court. of Yuba county affidavits setting forth that Prof. Thos, Price is not the agent of the Blue Tent Company, and that he was not the agent of said company at the time of the service of the injunction papers in the case wherein Yuba county is plaintiff. Accompanying these aflidavits is an order from Judge Blanchard for the plaintiff to: appear in Court on the sixteeuth instant and show cause why the return of service should not be vacated. This is the same order that was made in the EKureka Lake suit, and hence the question of service in these two cases willcome up in the Superior Court on Saturday, the 16th instant. Long Drawn Out, The case of Woodruff vs. Sailor Flat and Manzanita has been postponed about a half dozen times, It was set for hearing in the U. 8S. Circuit Court at San Franzisco yesterday, and we have not learned whether there was another postponerment. The suits against the hydraulic miners will probably come to ‘a head after the claims are worked out, and the farmers have spent their last dollar in making the unwarrantable fight. > oe The Alaska Mine. ’ George Pratt informs the Tidings that the Alaska mine at Pike City. is working 85 men, 65 under ground and 20 in the mill. The ledge is two feet thick, and among the good things recently brought to the surface were $3,000 worth of specimens of free gold ore. Capt. Shawhan is the capable Superintendent of the property. Badly Beaten. Alta Hill Sunday afternoon resulted in the True Blues of Grass Valley making 31 runs and the Silver Stars of this city only 6.

Proprietors, A ‘correspondent or gry the Trackve Republican pays a beadtiful tribute to the late Mrs. Wood, and relates these interesting incidents of her life and death: Kate Edwards Wood died at-her home -in — Visalia, on the evening of Thankagiving day, November 30, 1882. She was born jn Nevada City, Cal,, March 9, 1854, There she was raised, and there she received her education, ana taught in the school in which she had ‘been a pupil. Aftersix years of teaching in that county she remove . with hermother to Visalia, as her hvalth had become impaired, and she taught in Visalia to the time of herdeath. At the be.inning of the last term she was promoted to the Vice-Principal” ship of the Visalia public schoo’, the responsible duties of which position she discharged ably and faithfully. Two years ago last February,she was summoned tothe death-bed of Mr. E. P, Wood, whom she had engaged to marry, and at his earnest solicitation she was married to him. He died a few days afterward. Although she had a delicate ‘vonstitution, her health, after she removed to Visalia, was good, but last summer she sufat the coast proved beneficial, Shortly after the opening of the school she had an attack of fever, but recovered and continued her school duties until two weeks before her death, when the fever again overcame her. It was on Monday preceding her death that she knew she must die, and then the heroism of her nature and her true womanlihess and her solicitude for others before herself, came into atrong relief. For those who needed her she would have livéd, for she felt that her life was less her own than that of others, and it pained her noble heart to leave them and to cause them grief, but as the end approached she accepted death. She was buried Sunday and the funeral was very large, It was a day of general mourning in Visalia. She belonged to the people, and the people mourned her sorely, She belonged to her pupils, and they followed he, weeping, and there was great wealth of floral offerings, tender evidences of love.

This is the same order that was made in the EKureka Lake suit, and hence the question of service in these two cases willcome up in the Superior Court on Saturday, the 16th instant.

Proprietors, A ‘correspondent or gry the Trackve Republican pays a beadtiful tribute to the late Mrs. Wood, and relates these interesting incidents of her life and death: Kate Edwards Wood died at-her home -in — Visalia, on the evening of Thankagiving day, November 30, 1882. She was born jn Nevada City, Cal,, March 9, 1854, There she was raised, and there she received her education, ana taught in the school in which she had ‘been a pupil. Aftersix years of teaching in that county she remove . with hermother to Visalia, as her hvalth had become impaired, and she taught in Visalia to the time of herdeath. At the be.inning of the last term she was promoted to the Vice-Principal” ship of the Visalia public schoo’, the responsible duties of which position she discharged ably and faithfully. Two years ago last February,she was summoned tothe death-bed of Mr. E. P, Wood, whom she had engaged to marry, and at his earnest solicitation she was married to him. He died a few days afterward. Although she had a delicate ‘vonstitution, her health, after she removed to Visalia, was good, but last summer she sufat the coast proved beneficial, Shortly after the opening of the school she had an attack of fever, but recovered and continued her school duties until two weeks before her death, when the fever again overcame her. It was on Monday preceding her death that she knew she must die, and then the heroism of her nature and her true womanlihess and her solicitude for others before herself, came into atrong relief. For those who needed her she would have livéd, for she felt that her life was less her own than that of others, and it pained her noble heart to leave them and to cause them grief, but as the end approached she accepted death. She was buried Sunday and the funeral was very large, It was a day of general mourning in Visalia. She belonged to the people, and the people mourned her sorely, She belonged to her pupils, and they followed he, weeping, and there was great wealth of floral offerings, tender evidences of love.
