The semi-annual installation of officers of Mile Lodge, No. 48, K. of P., was eonducted Friday evening -by J. G. Hartwell, D. D. G.C., assisted by W. KF.

The Lodge has 118 members, and is in a first-class condition ima ; tz one Lent One-Demoorat has t has-been found who is satisfied with the nominations at Chicago.

Gaede will bea great ee onlat holiday: of the French people, and ‘it will be celebrated by them in a. . principal, cities of America. . l4thof July is the Gada ° the fall of the Bastile, which: was the first act in the great tragedy of the French Revolution. The ex travagance of kings and the insolence of nobles who were -exempt from taxes, which were thus rendered doubly grievous: to the people, had, throngh several feigns, gradually increased the discontent of the masves. A body of philosophers had arisen whose broad and often radical ideas regarding government had given courage and strength to ‘the masses; and the American revolution gave an example of a peopl struggling against an oppressive power, which was not lost upon the French nation, The reign of Louis XIV. began with seeming prospects of relief to the people, bat. the finances went from bad to worse, and the people learned what it was to suffer, even more than under the previous reign of vice and luxury. At lastga succession of bad. harvests excited. an almost starving people ‘to rebellion against the existing order ‘of things. They asked their king for bread, and for laws that would protect them from robbery by the nobles. Their clamors grew louder aa the season progressed, and at last they heard that their efforts to obtain relief were to be suppressed, that their wishes were to be dirregarded, and that they were to he repulsed in their demands for more liberty, for more security, and for protection against robbery. Then it was that the populace of Paris arose, and, with what weapons they could secure, attacked, July 14th, 1789, the Bastile fortress, which, they had heard, was to be used’ to frighten . ' the city into submission. It was a stronghold which had been used successfully for that purpose many times before, but it now fell before an almost unarmed populace, and its walls were demolished that Paris might be henceforth free from fear that its guns might aweep the streets. ‘The capture of . the Bastile was the first overt act of resistance to the government of ex‘travagance and to the oppressive order of nobility, which was subsequently overthrown. It marked the first step takon. toward freedom, and as such its anniversary is celebrated by the French nation. More Momey Asked For. The Leader says that H. W. Wallis has asked the Supervisors of Sierra county to appropriate $2,000 to a fand with which to appeal the Bloomfield debris case to the Supreme Court of the United States, The Leader is in favor of the ‘county giving $1,000 if. necessary, and remarks: ‘‘We are already over-taxed. and can not well afford to. give,over that amount at present.” The Supervisors of Nevada County severkl months ago resolved to sppropriate $5,000 with which to employ counsel for the same purpose, but the money has not been asked for yet and many tax-payers seems to think the Treasurer will never be applied to forit. The Tidings calls upon the Supervisors to rescind the resolution making the appropriation while itis yet time, and it is understood that some of the members of the Board are in favor of such action. The Marysville Appeal says. the money has already been drawn, but the Appealis very much mistaken. Death of Rev. W. C. Powell. Rey. Wm. C. Powell, rector of Trinity (Episcopal) Church at this city and Emmanyel Church at Grass Valley, died Friday afternoon at his home'in the latter town. The Union says: He had been afflicted for years with kidney troubles, but it was only until recently that his ailment took an aggravated form, and the symptoms gave cause of apprehensions of a fatal termination, For the past few days he had been failing, and although ‘his pulse remained regular he could take no nourishment, and finally he went to sleep peacefully in death. The funeral will probably not take place before Tuesday, to await the arrival of two sons of the deceased from on their way, having been notified by telegram of the. dangerous illness of their father. . oe Testing the Mine Indicator: Dr. E.

A few days’ . Washington Territory, who are now . . The psig ‘emineut Senator from Delaware is pronounced as it spelled By-ard. Politics divids men at times, bot the first cargo of ripe watermelons makes the whole world kin. His fall name is Stephen Grover Cleveland, No man who deserts his front name oan be’ President. Stephen clearly has grounds for action against Grover Cleveland. Bachanan was a bachelor, Tilden was bachelor, and Cleveland is a bachelor. How is the Democratic part ever to have.a majority if Democrats don’t marry. An Ohio girl jumped the rope 256 times and died. Ben Butler has jumped from one side to the other o! the political rope great many times and should take warning. Another explanation of Carl Schurz’s hostility to Logan is offered to the effect that Schurz once detected Logan indulging in the foppish habit of blowing the froth off a glass of beer before drinking it.Henry Ward Beecher’s request to the Independent Committee, ‘Put me down against Blaine in letters two feet long,”is not so strange after all, Takes man whose opinions are worth just four lines of solid agate and nine times out of ten he is the one who thinks he deserves a column and a half of long primer. The Prohibition National Convenon the 22d instant, and Dr, McDonald, of San Francisco, expects to receive the nomination. The Doctor is thrifty as well as temperate, and can use his money to good advantage in the banking institution over which he so gracefully presides. His political ambition will be tempered by ‘the financial, pudence which has always been one of his most conspicious characteristics, The Indiana Democratic State Convention adopted resolutions declaring fidelity to the Federal Constitution and friendship for the veteran soldiers, This is cheering, because a few years ago the Indiana Democracy repudiated the Constitution, and stigmatised the soldiera as “Linooln’s hirelings.” The Demoerats of Indiana during the civil war were.as big rebels ag the Sonth Carolinians, They rejoiced over Confederate victories and Federal defeats. But weare glad of the good precept thatteaches the vilest sinners may return. The Democratic journals complain of Blaine because he remained in Congress during the war and did not go into the army and fight Demoerate inthe field. The same journals complain of Gen. Logan because he did not leave his seat in Congress and fight at Bull Run. Hard to satisfy. Mr, Blaine was the right man in the right place when in Congreas battling with the Copperheads who were preaching that the rebellion could not be pat down by force, New Quartz Mill. Union; Henry B. Johnston and Wm. C, D. Body have entered into aco-partnership to build a custom quartz mill, which will be erected on the west side of Wolf creek, a little north of the old Gold Hill. It will be a ten-stamp mill, and run by water power. The mill will be commenced in a few weeks, Since the destruction of the McAuley mill and the tearing down of theold Gold Hill mill there has been no custom mill within the limits of the town, although there are four in the vicinity. The newmill is needed, and the location will be-of great convenience to prospecting companies. Westerday’s Fire Alarm. The fire department was called out at half past two o’clock yesterday afternoon by the burning of some brushin the yard on High street where Mrs. Geo. Smith lives. The firemen had quite arun in the hot sun before learning what caused the smoke. The hose cart of Company No. 1 was damaged to the extent of having a wheel-spoke broken: People who want to make brush fires on windy days like yesterday should notify the city officers and fire department authorities of their intention. It would prevent much Ll fane talk. : a el er fichool Teachers Appointed. A. J. Liffany,County Superintendent of Schools, who has for « long time been teaching at French Corral, ‘has been ‘‘called” to Allison Ranch and will take charge of the school there beginning on the 2let instant. B. F. Stewart retains his position . cai Law Principal of the San Juan schools, ‘Mies Sarah Davis being elected teacher of the primary grade. Arthur Gassaway, now teaching at Relief Hill, will soon go to the town of Washington to preside over tion is to be held at Pittsburg, Pa., . . a rot Supervisors at the last Session. re-. duced the pay of the County Board of Education fron $200 to $100 per year. This. reduction wae’ much needed, as a vast. amount of money was being squandered in educational matters, and: two hundred dollars a year was toomuch money to waste upon those pedagogues. _We are not certain but that a further reduction ‘should still be made, and that they should be allowed only their actual travling expenses, and one dollar a day for their servives. That vons leave more for the members of the Board and the other officers, who are at present receiving the pitiful compensation of from two to, four thousand a year. Ic would be about tight if teachers received one dollar ® day for their services, while Soards of Supervisors should receive on account of their superior services, . eight dollars a day,and be only asked to pass about thirty bills a day, or in other words, audit that many accounts. The immense amount saved to each individual taxpayer by the retrenchment already made will: save them from bankraptcy. We are not sure but that the hundred dollars saved ought to be added to the pay of the board, or planx, or stick, or whatever they are, in order: to show the appreciation of such reforms by the people, All these boards will be re-elected REFORMER. ——_ «> o-__—_ Good Boys Both. The Downieville Tribune gives the following account of a well conteated wrestling match that took place at Sierra City on the evening of the 5th instant between Joseph Williams and E. ©. Gagnier for $100 aside: Thos. Mackie was selected. to act as referee and R. H. Sweetmon as time keeper. At half-past nine both men appesred in thering. A, Phillips acted as stickler for Gagnier and Chas, Keskeys tor Williams. Ten minutes was allowed for each round with a five minutes’ rest. Williams won the choice of holds, and took the under hold. Time being called the contestants shook hands, and immediately proceeded to business. Williams assumed the offensive, and after some skillful maneuvering succeed in getting a toe hitch on Gagnier, throwing him; time 44 minutes; Time being again called, both men promptly took position, Gagnier having the underhold and acting on the defensive. The round resalted in a draw. Seven more rounds were wrestled without either securing a fall, and as it was now 12 o’clock and Sunday morning, it was agreed to stop proceedings, pending further arrangements, Subsequently the match was declared off. The match was a closely contheir best was apparent to all. Both men showed themselves to be the possessors of considerable science, combined with a cat like agility. The gate money amounted to something over $50. It is possible that another match will be made between the same parties, HSOEIRENEE LNT eed Mae TRARY ES SE HOTEL ARRIVALS.

A few days’ . Washington Territory, who are now . . The psig ‘emineut Senator from Delaware is pronounced as it spelled By-ard. Politics divids men at times, bot the first cargo of ripe watermelons makes the whole world kin. His fall name is Stephen Grover Cleveland, No man who deserts his front name oan be’ President. Stephen clearly has grounds for action against Grover Cleveland. Bachanan was a bachelor, Tilden was bachelor, and Cleveland is a bachelor. How is the Democratic part ever to have.a majority if Democrats don’t marry. An Ohio girl jumped the rope 256 times and died. Ben Butler has jumped from one side to the other o! the political rope great many times and should take warning. Another explanation of Carl Schurz’s hostility to Logan is offered to the effect that Schurz once detected Logan indulging in the foppish habit of blowing the froth off a glass of beer before drinking it.Henry Ward Beecher’s request to the Independent Committee, ‘Put me down against Blaine in letters two feet long,”is not so strange after all, Takes man whose opinions are worth just four lines of solid agate and nine times out of ten he is the one who thinks he deserves a column and a half of long primer. The Prohibition National Convenon the 22d instant, and Dr, McDonald, of San Francisco, expects to receive the nomination. The Doctor is thrifty as well as temperate, and can use his money to good advantage in the banking institution over which he so gracefully presides. His political ambition will be tempered by ‘the financial, pudence which has always been one of his most conspicious characteristics, The Indiana Democratic State Convention adopted resolutions declaring fidelity to the Federal Constitution and friendship for the veteran soldiers, This is cheering, because a few years ago the Indiana Democracy repudiated the Constitution, and stigmatised the soldiera as “Linooln’s hirelings.” The Demoerats of Indiana during the civil war were.as big rebels ag the Sonth Carolinians, They rejoiced over Confederate victories and Federal defeats. But weare glad of the good precept thatteaches the vilest sinners may return. The Democratic journals complain of Blaine because he remained in Congress during the war and did not go into the army and fight Demoerate inthe field. The same journals complain of Gen. Logan because he did not leave his seat in Congress and fight at Bull Run. Hard to satisfy. Mr, Blaine was the right man in the right place when in Congreas battling with the Copperheads who were preaching that the rebellion could not be pat down by force, New Quartz Mill. Union; Henry B. Johnston and Wm. C, D. Body have entered into aco-partnership to build a custom quartz mill, which will be erected on the west side of Wolf creek, a little north of the old Gold Hill. It will be a ten-stamp mill, and run by water power. The mill will be commenced in a few weeks, Since the destruction of the McAuley mill and the tearing down of theold Gold Hill mill there has been no custom mill within the limits of the town, although there are four in the vicinity. The newmill is needed, and the location will be-of great convenience to prospecting companies. Westerday’s Fire Alarm. The fire department was called out at half past two o’clock yesterday afternoon by the burning of some brushin the yard on High street where Mrs. Geo. Smith lives. The firemen had quite arun in the hot sun before learning what caused the smoke. The hose cart of Company No. 1 was damaged to the extent of having a wheel-spoke broken: People who want to make brush fires on windy days like yesterday should notify the city officers and fire department authorities of their intention. It would prevent much Ll fane talk. : a el er fichool Teachers Appointed. A. J. Liffany,County Superintendent of Schools, who has for « long time been teaching at French Corral, ‘has been ‘‘called” to Allison Ranch and will take charge of the school there beginning on the 2let instant. B. F. Stewart retains his position . cai Law Principal of the San Juan schools, ‘Mies Sarah Davis being elected teacher of the primary grade. Arthur Gassaway, now teaching at Relief Hill, will soon go to the town of Washington to preside over tion is to be held at Pittsburg, Pa., . . a rot Supervisors at the last Session. re-. duced the pay of the County Board of Education fron $200 to $100 per year. This. reduction wae’ much needed, as a vast. amount of money was being squandered in educational matters, and: two hundred dollars a year was toomuch money to waste upon those pedagogues. _We are not certain but that a further reduction ‘should still be made, and that they should be allowed only their actual

travling expenses, and one dollar a day for their servives. That vons leave more for the members of the Board and the other officers, who are at present receiving the pitiful compensation of from two to, four thousand a year. Ic would be about tight if teachers received one dollar ® day for their services, while Soards of Supervisors should receive on account of their superior services, . eight dollars a day,and be only asked to pass about thirty bills a day, or in other words, audit that many accounts. The immense amount saved to each individual taxpayer by the retrenchment already made will: save them from bankraptcy. We are not sure but that the hundred dollars saved ought to be added to the pay of the board, or planx, or stick, or whatever they are, in order: to show the appreciation of such reforms by the people, All these boards will be re-elected REFORMER. ——_ «> o-__—_ Good Boys Both. The Downieville Tribune gives the following account of a well conteated wrestling match that took place at Sierra City on the evening of the 5th instant between Joseph Williams and E. ©. Gagnier for $100 aside: Thos. Mackie was selected. to act as referee and R. H. Sweetmon as time keeper. At half-past nine both men appesred in thering. A, Phillips acted as stickler for Gagnier and Chas, Keskeys tor Williams. Ten minutes was allowed for each round with a five minutes’ rest. Williams won the choice of holds, and took the under hold. Time being called the contestants shook hands, and immediately proceeded to business. Williams assumed the offensive, and after some skillful maneuvering succeed in getting a toe hitch on Gagnier, throwing him; time 44 minutes; Time being again called, both men promptly took position, Gagnier having the underhold and acting on the defensive. The round resalted in a draw. Seven more rounds were wrestled without either securing a fall, and as it was now 12 o’clock and Sunday morning, it was agreed to stop proceedings, pending further arrangements, Subsequently the match was declared off. The match was a closely contheir best was apparent to all. Both men showed themselves to be the possessors of considerable science, combined with a cat like agility. The gate money amounted to something over $50. It is possible that another match will be made between the same parties, HSOEIRENEE LNT eed Mae TRARY ES SE HOTEL ARRIVALS.
