From Recorder Rapp.
Eprror Transcrier: My attentiou-has-been called--to-—-an—article
in the Tidings, several days since,
in which reference was made to an
alleged error in the Kitts index.The error did not involve 290 pages
_asalleged, ‘The page ofthe record
,of one dogument was wrong, but
when my attention was called to it
I instantly took down Kitts’ grantee
iudex and discovered the true page.
Since the time referred to and before it was offered for sale, the index
has been compared and corrected,
and I believe no errors can now be
found in it. Justice to Mr. Kitts
demands that the wrong impression
conveyed by the article be corrected.
Fa:thermore, I am. conversant with
the work done on the index; 1ts
value and:the condition of the -old.
I velieve it is cheap at the price asked; ant that the county and all in-)
terested in examining the records
would save*money by purchasing it.

The Renewed ‘Transcript ”
The-publishers of the Transcript.
At is the general verdict of those}
who were present that the entertainment given in Hunt’s Hall, Friday
evening, by the members of Mil
Lodge, No. 48, Knights of Pythias,
was the most brilliant spcial event
of the kind ever witnessed in Nevada county. As early as half~past
seven o'clock the people begin to
assemble, and by eight o’clock the
Galleries were crowded to overflowing. and the spacious floor was
thronged. The degorations of the
hall were more beautiful than ever
before devised here. At the head
of the room and just in front of the
with the embroidered banner of the
lodge drooping from tho summit.
From either side of the arch to the
wall were stretched curtains of national “bunting surmounted—by—engravings emblematical of the order.
On the wall back of the musicians
was in large letters, “Milo Lodge,
No. 48, K. of P.,” while along one
side of thie hall-were arranged in the
same style of lettering the motto of
the ledge, ‘Friendship, Charity,
Benevolence.” On two sides of the
ground glass _globes_of all the gas
chandeliers were in bright red the
letters ‘‘K. of P.” In the center. of
the ceiling was a large wreath from
which diverged in every direction
red, blue and yellow (emblematical
colors) streamers that reached to.the
extreme walls: . Underneath— this
wreath hung a triangle formed of
three mammoth mirrors, Ten large
evergreen triangles hung from the
roof at proper intervals, and -inside
of each of these was a cage of canary.
birds. Over all the windows were
triangles made of ferns, and numerous other beautiful decorations were
apparent on every side,
The evening’s entertainment began
with an overture by the orchestra
which _consisted of Messrs. Hunt,
Hand; Greene, Goyne, Elser and Carter,after which there were some very, .
appropriate opening remarks by H.
V. Reardan, wherein the speaker
gave a brief history of the . Pythian
order and its origin. J.T. Robbins
sang a solo, Prof. Muller furnishing
the accompaniment, “Then came a
recitation by Miss Ida Maltnfan. C.
W. Cross delivered an address on the
objects _of the order. This _programme concluded with a solo by
Prof. Hand. The above exercises
were niost admirably rendered, elicting hearty applause. , The next feature introduced was the drill by
twenty-four members of the Lodge
in full uniform under command of
Past Chancellor _ Hartwell. The
Knights presented a magnificent
appearance and displayed a proficiency in the various manceuvers that
is seldom equalled by regular milita-ry_companies. _Among the evolutions introduced in, the drillwere the
star and triangle movements, a tieatly executed sword exercise accompanying the latter. The grand march,
in which about ninety couples participated, succeeded the uniform drill.
This was also conducted so as to demonstrate the triangle idea;which per'vades all the order’s © transactions
as the square and compass do that
of Masonry. The programmme embraced sixteen dances which were
well selected.

Special Features. ° .
Among the special features of the
remodeted Traxscrier will be found
‘on the first page a complete City

_ ery importent. On the fourth page

There is no respect in which the
entertainment was not a success and
a great credit to the chivalric order
under whose name it was given. The
members of Milo Lodge. have good
reason to feel proud of the impression they created.

New Advertisements.

B. H. Miller, the enterprising and.
long established clothier, announces
a grand: reduction sale to continue
for forty days. He means just what
The says, and is not merely indulging .
in-an advertising dodge. He has put
priees away down, as any citizen cay
learn by calling and ‘inspecting the
magnificent stock On display.
L. M. Sukeforth of the old reliable Pioneer Furniture store gives our
readers an excellent idea of the class
of goods he carries and thé very low
rates he offers them at. He challenges competition from any dealer
.in this part of the State. To show
‘that the stock at the Pioneer _is of
modern kind, the owner offers to sell
for $100every article he-has had i in
the store over a year.
The Beehive comes to the front
with some interesting statements,
calling attention to the quality of the
goods to be found there and the astonishing cheapness of the same.

Partly through curiosity and partly with an eye to business ‘he answered it, asking for further particulars. Being a very proper man in
all his dealings, the reader can imagine-his horror at-receiving the following reply:
New York, Jan. 10, 1882.
Duar Sir:—Your favor to hand
and in reply will say, Tam now put=;
ting into the market the tinestimitation goods ever offered, so much’ so
that even the most expert judges
cannot detect it. I have both Canadiiu and United States goods, so
that Iam able to supply you with
whatsoever you want. The yoous
are so perfectly executed, that they
will take care of themselves in any
part of the country, and the most
important thing required of Au agent
is to keep hisown secrets, and «you
can in a short time make all the money you want. We have had a good
deal of trouble by sending the goods
and samples by the mails, and to
avoid thisand make it an inducement tohave parties come on and
examine the goods, and pick out just
what tney want, we allow them $1,000 in the goods which together with
what-they bay,—gives-them -a—good
start, Our prices are:
$ 1,000 in the goods $ 100.
3, 000 ay +e ry
10, v00 ** 600.
With the above we give you the
general agency of all the territory
you think you can handle, and in a
short time you can make all the.
money you desive. This gives you
the power to appoint your own agents
and ina month you can be making
more money than with all the other
ageucies combined, and no trouble.
In coming on always let me know a
day or two hefore you start or else
telegraph me after you get started
and at what hotel you will stop that
E may be on the look out for you.
When you arrive at the hotel register your name and take a room and
wait in it until 1 come, which will
not be long, and when I come I will
show you your own letterso you will
know that I am the right man. Do
not have anything to do with anyone
who cannot to this. If you do_no&]
know of any hotel yourself the enclosed card is a good one .and convenient to the aepot where you arrive. You need not stay in . New
York more thanan hour unless ‘you
wish to. Think this matter over
well and come and see mé [and take
as large stock of the goods as you
can and commence making money at
once,

Barton's New Blacksmith Shop.
The new building recently erected
on the Plaza by Wm. Barton is evidence that lie believes in thestability of Nevada City. Having purchased the lot of L. Keith he has
erected a blacksmith and carriage
shop equal in appearance and finish
to any on this coast. The building
The-part occupied by
Mr. Barton is 45 feet long and the
remainder is-used by Samuel Clutter as a carriage and wagon sliop.
The building is finished with rustic
and lined on the inside with dressed
lumber. In a few weeks a covered
platform 14 feet wide will be eréctedthe entire length inthe rear of the
building, which will be used for vehicles while being repaired. The
blacksmithing department is under
ithe immediate supervision of Mr.
Barton, and he is prepared to do all
kinds of blacksmithing, and making
tools of all kinds, His rapidly increasing business is impelling him.to
erect another forge, which will shortly be commenced. The carriage and
wagon department adjoins the blacksmith shop, and is connected —by
large sliding doors. All kinds of
wood work in the carriage or wagon
line is here done. by Mr. Clutter
equal to the best imported. In fact
both of these gentlemen, who have
been engaged in business in this city,
one for 26-years and .the other for
of beas ‘Commodore Williams,” and who
has for 25 years lived ina cabin on
the Consolidated mining ground near
aro, Hill, was found ‘murdered
lay close to and in front of his cabin
door, with the head badly battered
as though he had been clubbed to

at alate hour Friday. His body
aged about 70 years.
There are some ugly intimatiéns
‘afloat as to who might have committed the crime. Sheriff Tompkins
went over yesterday to investigate
the matter.
Our Connty Supervisors.
A correspondent asks the TranfcRIPT to name . some of the’ acdomplishments of the various Supervisors of Nevada county:
Mr Huckinsis the best sa iaaditass
He thinks nothing of walking from
his home to the county seat and
back in half a day, but that “is beeause he never tried it.
Mr, Day is at’ home on skates,
and frequently during the. winter
months indulges in the healthful
pastime. He is one of the best
skaters in Meadow Lake township
—when:-Charles Mulloy of this city
isn’t there,
Mr, Byrne is tlie best horseman
among the members, . He knows a
good equine as far as he can see it,
and never comes out second-best in
“swapping.”
Mr. Mills is the best posted in
military tactics, He knows “hayfoot” from straw-foot” every time,
and handles a sword as giacefully
as a ball-room belle manipulates her
fan.
Mr. Battis is the champion mower
on the Board. He won the belt’ in
the Supervisoral contest that took
place at 5 o’clock one morning last
Fall out on Getchell’s slickens ranch.
While he was cutting down the hay
his‘wicked fellow members eat up
the’ black-berries that -Getchell offered as a prize to the successful
contestant. All that our friend
Battis got for his labor was the
glory.

A Card,
Sprror fuanscript:—I have today made diligent search for the
men who iiave offered to make an
index like mine for less than I ask.
I have called on every man mentioned and they each said they had made
no such offer, that they could not and
would not do the work for less than
I ask, and that my price’ was cheap
and the index worth it. :
Those who had made any exieession on the matter had merely said
they would re-cory the old, the
county providing all the material, at
from $1200 to $1500.
Let any man who doubts this enquire for himself.

from 25 cents to $1 a car has been
found in the east drift from the new

A sure Cure for Blind, Bleeding,
Itching and Ulcerated Piles has been
discoverd by Dr. William, (an Indian
Remedy,) called Dr, William’s Indian Ointment, A single box has
cured the worst chronic cases of 25

wonderful soothing medicine. Lotions, instruments and electuaries do
more harm than good. William’s
Ointment absorbs the tumors, allays

and is prepared only for Piles, itching of the private parts, and for
nothing else,
