ARVADA DAILY TRANSORL Tur stores of Nevada City carry larger and finer stocks than those of any other town of the same size in the State,and our business men are alive. with enterprise.

The law provides that legislative, county and township officers shall file at the County Clerk’s office within ten days after receiving their certificates of election good and sufficient bonds for the faithful performance of their duties as preseribed'by the statutes.

The following is a list of those who have failed to _ comply with the law: Supervisor—Wm, J. Hill. Justices of the Peace—J. M. Ballard and H. McNulty, Eureka; John Ely and J. G.

Those wishing good insurance at reasonable rates ‘will do well to see Mr. Sturges at the Union Hotel or at Brand & McCutchan’s store. . Now You Can See for Yourself Where the Truth Comes Out. Mr. High Price has given you an advertisement of claims. : Why don’t he claim he has charged yeu 40 cents a yard for sheeting that he is now selling for 20 cents a yard, and which we sell for 164 cents a yard ? : Why don’t he claim he charged you 12 and 14 cents a yard fer calico that he now offers to sell you at the vate of 25 yards for a dollar, while we sell you 30 yards of the same ar. P°° ticle for a dollar ? -He claims he froze out 18 atores in Nevada City, but he never will freeze out the One Price Sao FranHe claims he is making his home in Nevada City. Where did he make his money by selling sheeting at 20 cents a yard? As he offers now to sell you 25 of calico for a dellar, bt 3 jidn’t he offer you such goodsat suc’ i before the One Price San cisco Store started in Nevada a ‘ 2 ch a store is not worthy of being ‘patronized.

Plunder Found on Him, 8. E. Fiske, owner of the Glenbrook property midway between this city and Grass Valley, léft home early yesterday morning with a load of wood to be delivered at the Empire mine, Grass Valley. A short distance this sidé of that town there passed him-coming in this direction ® swarthy, medium sized tramp carrying abundle of blankets. Mr. Fiske had delivered the Wood-and returned home when he was informed by his wife that during his absence some one had crawled through a window into the family bedroom, just across the hall from the sitting room, and after ransacking things had stolen Mr, Fiske’s' watch, a “gold ting, a $3 gold piece, a two-bit silver piece and a diamond, the whole valued at about $250. Shortly after she missed the articles officer Hank Snow of Grass Valley came along en route to the county seat. She told him what had happened and he immediately started on the trail. He discovered the same tramp seen coming out of Grass Valley by Mr. Fiske had passed up the road in this direction coming through the railroad tunnel, crossing Gold Flat near J. H. Wentworth’s place, and evidently making as good time as he could for -this city. Mr. Fiske hurried into tewn with news ef the burglary and a warrant for the tramp’s arrest was given to officer Scott who went out towards Gold Flat té look for the suspect. He had not-been gone long when Justice Blakey saw a man pass up Bread street that to his miud answered the description of the tramp, although he had no blankets. The fellow went into Luetje & Brand’s store and bought a key for an American watch, but was careful not to show the timepiece he wanted it for. Judge Blakey followed him into the store,and when he went out followed him as he crossed the street and sat down in a chair in front ofa saloon, After sittin there a awhile he arose and walke down York street to Commercial, then turned down Commercial. The Judge hastened around the block in the opposite direction to interpept him at Pine street, and was gradually drawing down on his game when suddenly officer Snow hove in sight close to the would-be dodgér’s heels, ‘‘He’s your man,” said Mr. Blakey to the officer as they came close together. ‘So I had just concluded” observed® Hank, at the same time swooping = upon and seizing the party. The man was taken into the courtroom, searched, and the wateh, ring and gold coin found onhim. He was then taken to where he had left his blankets and they were recovered but found to contain nothing contraband. The diamond, the most valuable part of the missing property, was noh est. F The prisoner confessed the burglary, but protested by all that was holy that he did not steal the gem. By one o'clock P. M., which was only crime, he was locked up in the county jail to await'a prelinimary hearing. He says his name is Charles Romain, and that he is a Frenchman, jAfter arriving in town and previous to his arrest he had been to both foundries seeking work and saying he was a good machinist. When asked where he was last employed, he said he had not worked at his trade since leaving Mexico. Raking in Election Bets. The Sacramento Record Union of Thursday says: Judge A. B. Dibble left for his home at Grass Valley yesterday. During his stay here, after attending to business of the Fish Commission, he amused himself collecting his election bets, getting in an $85 suit of clothes in/One place, a silk hat in another, feham, pagne in another, and so on till his baggage became troublesome. _ VAR Rosenberg Brothers’ Palace Dry Goods Store New Advertisement. People should not fail to read Rosenberg Brothers’ new advertisement, They have purchased a very large steek of goods. Owing to the scarcity of money they have bought their goods at a very Jow price for cash, and intend to sell them so. They want it to be strictly understood that they will still stiek to their motto, ‘‘For ene dollar spent io their store you get one dollar’s worth of goods in return and no more.” They don’t propose to give people twenty dollar pieces for ten dollars, as that they certainly could not do and succeed in business.

If they could afford to sell them with a living profit (like any honest merchant shoula make) they would in the_first_place cheerfully give to the blic as mach as they could poseily. They don’t pretend to sell avything below the cost price, because they know that honest, people don’t expect them to. When they jadvertise an article for 25 eents on the dollar it means that ‘article is worth fully one hundred cents; not that they desire the peopl€to believe that they sell for 25 cents what cost them one dollar, which would be preposterous, They don’t do that kind of business. We would advise people who wish anything in their line not to fail to consult them first, as they sell everything as they advertise,and will keep that class of goods constantly on hand.

Boston Herald, “How are Americans liked in England ?” And Mr, B. F, Larrabe,of 42 Chester Square, ex-director of the New York & Boston Despatch Express Company, who has reeently returned frota‘a considerab!e residence in London, answered: ‘lf they have good recommendations and behave themselves they are well treated, biit they will like the English people, anyway, when acquaintance ripens inte confidence.” ‘‘How do the English compare with Americans.” “The finest looking’ men in the world can be seen on pleasant days of the London season, promenading Piccadilly. The English ladies however, are neither so neat in appearapce nor so graceful of form and movements as the Americans, but they seem te enjoy more robust a ; “Are English le longer lived than our jobads pee . “I don’t know. Ihave not fully oe But I remember once earing read a news r paragraph entitled ‘Why do aglletinen’ Line Longer than Americans ? ‘That paragraph, by the way, cnce solved a great mystery for me.” “Ab, indeea, another ‘tribute to the power of the press ?’” suggested the reporter, "Yes, if you so please te call it. In 1879, when I was residing at the Commonwealth Hotel in this city, I had occasion to do ‘same business in Washington street. When 1 got to the cornef of Franklin, I seemed to feel a blow im the breast and fell to the pavement like a dead man, When [ recovered consciousness I was taken to my hotel. I first thought some enemy had struck me, but my physicians assured me that such could not be the case and advised strictest quiet. For six len weeks I was unable to lie dewn. i was violently ill, and my physicians said I would probably never walk the streetsof Boston again. I did not want to die, but who can expect to live when all doctors say he cannot?” And Mr, Larrabee smiled sarcastically, and expressed himeel! very freely concerning the number of common disorders which are controlled by remedies which physiciens will not employ. “But how about the paragraph ?” “Yes, yes. When I was ob. iged to sit up in bed day and night for fear of suffication, aud hourly expected death, my nurse begged the privilege of reading that paragraph to me. I refused him at first but he persisted. It described my condition so exactly, that for the firat time I began to realize what prostrated me. I was filled with strange hope. I at once dismissed my hysicians and immediately began War ner’s safe cure, In a few months I was restored to perfect liealth, notwithstanding mine was one of the worst possible cases of Bright’s disease of the kidneys, which all my pbysicians,—and I had the best specialists in Boston, —said was incurable. I tell you, when a man gets into the desperate condition I was in, _ he doesn’t forget what rescues him.” ‘But were the effects permanent?” “That was five years ago,” said Mr. Larrabee, “‘and for thirty years I have not been so well as during the past five years, If I had known what I do now, I would have checked the matter long ago, for it was in my system for years, revealing itself in my blood, by frequent attacks of chills, jaundice, vertigo, typhoid fever, nervousness, wakeful nighte, ete., ete. I took over forty bottles before I got up and over one hundred and fifty before I was well. I have commended that treatment in thousands of casesof general debility, kidney and liver disorder, etc., and have never heard iil concerning it. I bank on it.” “Speaking of paragraphs, how do English papers compare with American, in this particular ?” ‘Well, they have fewer witty paragraphs, but the smaller papers, like the Pall Mall Gazette, St. James Gazette, and Truth,abound in sharp, incisive paragraphs without wit. In general, American papers make the most of news, the London papers make the most of opinion,” Train Delayed. . $ The passenger train due here at 11:13 a. M. yesterday did not arrive till 12:30.
