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. Joun A. Rapp, Retorder. roe -WAAT THEY ARE DOING.

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. . are much gratified to lay before their . patrous and the public Jenerally, to\ day, an improved and enlarged paper, The office is at odds-enids to some extent, owiny to ths nnmerows changes _ that have been going on Mere during the present mouth, and the paper, will for a few days display some typographical inverfections.

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. — o = New Advertisements. ag 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.

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.

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.
