Serious Iliness of Fred Brown.
Fred. E. Brown, a compositor in
this office and son of the senior pro_prietor, went-to-North San—Juan—Friday and while on the road was taken
suddenly and severely ill. Sunday
morning his father received a telegram
concerning the young gentleman’s condition, and at once went over accompanied by Dr. R. M. Hunt. The latter
returned here the same evening, and
yesterday Mr. Brown brought Fred to
his home in this city. He is very ill,
the ailment being of a rheumatic nature. He has before suffered from
the same disease, and on one occasion
there were serious doubts as to whether he could recover. It-is to be sincerely hopedthat the present attack
will not be so lasting or severe, but
that hisrecovery will be speedy and
effectual. He is a young man who
gives every promise of a useful and
successful career if his life and health
are spared. :

Changed Its Mind.
Xot many weeks ago the correspond“ent of the San Francisco Chronicle
wrote to his paper that the debris dam
bill would surely be defeated, and no
power could save it. The Transcript
said then that the correspondent’s
judgment was not worth the paper it
was written on, as he has been wide
of the mark in every prognostication
of the kind. To prove that this paper
was right, itis only necessary to republish the following extract from the
Sacramento items in Sunday’s Chronicle: ‘‘The Anti-Debris Dam bill will
probably become a law.”

} A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
—
Lost in the Sierras—Three Days and Three
Nights of Suffering—A Miraculous Estape.
Last Wednesday morning at daylight
F. A. Elster, aged twenty-three years,
left his home in Penn Valley, this
county, to walk to You Bet. He got
along well enough till. he struck the
snow-belt, and then the dazzling white
surface began to -affect his eyesight.
Not only this, but the depth of the
snow, reaching sometimes to above
the waist, through which he had to
break his way, rendere i progress slow
and exhausting.
He struggled manfully on, béing a
brave, stalwart, young Californian,
who knew no such word as. fail. He
had made up his mind to reach You
Bet that day, and the thoughts of turn
ing back OF stopping at some hospitable wayside settler’s cabin did not en
ter his head.
He passed Greenhorn bridge, within
four or five miles of You Bet, finding
traveling more difficult and painful at
each step he took, and the attack of
snow-bliridness becoming momentarily more acute.
Then he became bewildered and
wandered aimlessly till night-overtook
him. He next came to the bank of
Greenhorn, and while groping along
fell into the stream. The.water was
deep and ice-cold, but by a mighty effort he’ saved himself froma‘ watery
grave. :
He knew that to pause meant death;
and so hekept going as best he could.
Next morning he almost involuntarily triéd to return by the circuitous
route he had come ; but another snowstorm began covering his tracks, and
cutting off even this means of escape.
All of that day and night and the
next day he struggled forward, crawling on hands and knees up the sides
of'steep canyons, and at times fighting
his way through snow up to his armpits. Friday night, having had neither food nor sleep for three days and
two nights, with hands and feet numb
from cold, and his powers of vision almost gone, the brave young fellow fell
and could not rise again. He made
up his mind that death had called
him, and was too exhausted to longer
endeavor to evade its clutches.
He remembers nothing that’ occurred till the next morning when he
awokean.i could.dimly discern some
familiar features in the landscape.
“ome trees that he had passed and
repassed hundreds of times told him
where he was.-__—— 2
He crawled a mile further and
reached a house--where-the—inmates
took him and cared for him kindly.
On Sunday he was taken to Grass
Valley and is‘having careful medical
treatment, His hands and feet-are in
a very badcondition, but it was at last
accounts hoped that amputation will
not be necessary.
A gentleman who went Sunday over
a portion of the route that Elster took
says that not one man in ten thousand
could have survived such long-continued hardship. Several times he went
near the houses of acquaintances,
just missing them. Many times he
doubled upon his ow tracks, but hé
traveled without method because his
perceptives were dulled by the long
exposure. One night-heé got quite near
a dwelling and caHéd piteously for re-.
lief. But the‘man who belonged there
was away and the woman either did
notear his appeals or was too much
alarmed by the unusual sound -to respond.

Mr. Elster is a Native Son of the
Golden West, and'a member of Hydraulic Parior at this city.

THE DEAD PRIEST.
The Lamented Rector's Family History—
How His Death Was Hastened—An
Affecting Scene—The Funeral Today.
Rey. Father Nulty was of an ancient,
respected and religious family. He
was a brother to the Rev. Christopher
Nulty, Superior of the Jesuit College,
Australia, also to Rev. James Nulty,
Administrator, Mullingar, County
W-~st Meath, Ireland.
His death was like-histlife, peaceful
and gentle. _ A few days before his demise he was visited by Rt. Rey. Bishop Manogue of Sacramento and Father
Dalton of Grass Valley. It was a
touching scene-tosee the Bishop take
a last farewell of him he knew so: long
and loved go much. :
In his last hours he was attended by
Rey. Fathers Tanham and McDonnell,
also by two Sisters of Mercy from
Grass Valley, who never left his bedside from the first signs of approaciing dissolution.
His death was hastened by circumstances that were proofs of his devotion to his people.“ Mindful of — his
mission and his~dearest interest, the
salvation of souls, he undertook a visit to Washington Township, which
resulted in his contracting .a severe
cold that first settled in his bones but
afterwards found its way to the
weaker parts of his delicate frame and
finally produced a fatal result:
Thé Virginia City Chronicle of Friday evening pays him this -tribute:
“Father Nulty was deeply beloved by
the people of the Comstock, irrespective of créed orclass. He was a& most
eloquent orator, and often moved his
hearers to tears. His loss will be sadly deplored by all familiar with his
kind, gentle and winning manner, and
who fervently hope that he may be
blessed in the land of the great beyond,”
There will be office and pentifical
high Mass this morning at 10 o’clock,
after which tis remains will be interred in the church.

An Old-Time Case Revived.
There is before the Legislature for
passage a general bill entitled, ‘‘An
Act to provide for restoration to citizenship of a certain class of persons
residing under civil disabilities.” It
is introduced in behalf-of W. T. Wheeler of San Jose, who is a veteran of the
Mexican war but is not entitled-to draw
a pension under the law recently passed by Congress unless he is relieved of
certain disabilities referred to in the
following extract from the San Jose
Mercury :
Mr. Wheeler is a pioneer Californian
and a veteran of the Mexican war.
There are men in San Jose who have
known him since boyhood. In 1855 he
went to Nevada City and set up in the
business of carriagé making. While
there he had a quarrel with a gambler
and had his arm broken. In defénse
of his life he shot his aszailant? There
being no case against hipy there was
no ee: Shortly afterwards .a
gold watch and cbain and some other
trinkets belonging to a resident of that
city were_found in Wheeler’s room.
He was“arrested for grand larceny,
tried, convicted and sentenced to five
Years in San Quentin. Regarding this
affair Mr. Wheeler says: “‘T served me 4
time for an offense I was innocent of.
[ was prosecuted by the friends.of the
gambler I shot, men as case-hardened
and conscienceless as himself. I was
at that time worth between $50,000 and
$60,000, so is it likely, then, that I
would steal a watch and chain? It was
a put-up job from first to last. I was
discharged and came to San Jose, wheré
I have lived ever since.” It may be
said that Mr. Wheeler has borne a good
character during his Iong residence in
San Jose, and that the petition to the
Legislature asking for the passage of
the first bill was signed by the leading
citizens of San Jose, including Judges
Belden and Spencer.

Useful and Hurtfal Medicines,
There is a certain class of remedies
for constipation absolutely useless.
These are boluses and potions made
in great part of podophyllin, aloes,
rhubarb, gamboge, and other worthless ingredients. The damage they do
to the stomachs of those who use them
is incalculable. They evacuate the
bowels, it is true, but do so violently
and profusely, and besides gripe the
bowels. Their effect is to weaken both
them and the stomach. Better far to
use the agreeable and salutary aperient, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, the
laxative effect of which is never preceded by pain, or_accompanied by a
convulsive; violent action of the bowels. Onthe contrary, it invigorates
those organs, the stomach and the entire system. > ameans of curing
and preventingmalarial fevers, no
medicine can compare with it, and it
remedies nervous debility, rheumatism, kidney and bladder inactivity,
and other inorganic ailments.

HOW IT INJURES.
The Wide-Reaching Effects of Sawyer's
Anti-Mining Decision—A Veritable
Octopus of Disaster.
SACRAMENTO, Feb. 27, 1878.
Epiror Transcripr:—In a belt of
country extending from Josephine and
Jackson counties in Oregon on the
north, southerly through Del Norte,
Siskiyou, Humboldt, Trinity, Shasta
and Lassen counties, California, on
the south, and from east to west in the
counties named, is-one-of the greatest
gold mining regions in the United
States. These mines are in the form
of quartz, drift and placer, and the
great mineral belt is traceable throughout the section named. The annual
product in gold is from $2,500,000 to
$3,000,000, The region is free from
all the objections urged against placer
mining in the section tributary-in—its
watershéd to the Sacramento. river,
but;as all laws must begeneral in
their application, what is to hinder
any evil-disposed person or any emissary of the Anti-Debris Association
from invoking the Sawyer’ decision
against this region and thus shutting
down the mines operating therein,
with all the disastrous results~in~ Toss
of treasure, hindering of honest labor
and crippling, of trade and. resources
thathave characterized ‘the «unholy
crusade against’mining in the other
portions of the State? Mr. R. H.
Campbell, representing the districts of
Del Norte and Siskiyou in the present
Assembly, and one of the most ardent
advocates of the miners’ cause, owng
two placer mines in this section—one
called the Quartz Valley placer mine
in Scott valley and the other the Summerville on the south of Salmon river,
and he informs me that notwithstanding that his property is not hounded
by the Anti-Debris Association, and
he is not hindered in the working of
the same, the war of mining lessens
the value of his property by the distrust it creates in capital towards mining enterprises, and that he lives in
constant fear lest some anti-mining fanatic should raise the Sawye¢r decision
on him on the ground that his tailings
were impeding the navigation of the
noble stream known as LeftHand
Gulch and shoaling the Pacific Ocean.
The Summerville company has expended a large sum of money in perfecting its works, and is now running
ata handsome profit under the superintendency of George C. Spooner, one
of the oldest and most experienced
miners on-the Coast. This product of
years of toil, energy, faith, enterprise;
hope and capital is as liable to eonfiscation as any of your placer mines in
Nevada county, whichybrought to productiveness under<#imilar conditions,
are practically’ confiscated under the
existing order of things. Mr. Campbellthinks the interests of the-miners
fdentical all over the State, no matter
what class of mining they are engaged
in, and hence his enthusiam on the
debris dam measures. _ SLicKENs.

dust Like an Old Nevada Countyan.
The following, which recently appeared in the New York Tribune, is
said to relate to aman who once mined
inthis county and now occupies a
prominent public position of trust:
In the old mining days of California;
when provisions were short in the Frazer river camp, it was the custom of
some of the case-hardened old fellows
to tell stories at meal time calculated
to destroy the appetite of the more
sensitive. A miner who had successfully played this game many a time,
paid a visit to San Francisco and during his stay was invited to dinner by
aclergyman. As soonas hé was seated at the table, the miner began to éat
up everything within range in his
usual vigorous style. His host, who
would sooner have omitted dinner than
grace before meat, endeavored to check
his ill-timed voracity -by_ remarking:
‘Please wait a moment, sir;we usually say something before we begin.”
His guest, with the memory of the,
Frazer river ante-prandial anecdotes
fresh in his mind, answered: ‘Oh,
you can say what you durn please,
you can’t turn my stomach.” The
preacher nearly fainted, and, although
his guest afterwards rose to a high
office in the State, could never be convinced that he was not an irreclaimable savage.
