The ordinary test: of division by four would make 1900 a leap year, sinée no remainder would be left, but in revising the calendar, Pope Gregory XIII. found that it would be necessary. to count as leap years only those _centurial years which would be divisible by 400 without a remainder, At the meetingof Mistletoe Encampment of Odd Fellows held Monday evening work was done in the third degree. Twenty-two members-of Union Encampment came up from Grass Valley to pay a visit to their brothers here.

The Marysville Democrat of last Saturday says: We learned today that Senator Walrath has discharged 40 men from his mine at Nevada City, known asthe Providence mine, and that he calculates to suspend operations altogether in the near future: This will be a terrible blow to Nevada City as the mine gave employment to several hundred men at fair wages. The Senator gives as a reason tie failure of the Walrath Stuff and nonsense! In the first place the Providence never gave employment to hundreds of men, the working force averaging less than one hundred, Again, while Senator Walrath may have said he proposed short. ly suspend -his-working of the-mine, he has not said the mine would not be worked. If the Democrat has done nothing worse, it has made a play on words. Thirdly, itis an injustice to Senator Walrath to attribute to him the statement that the failure of the debris dam bill is_responsible for anything that may or may not be done at or with the Providence. Excursion to Sacramento. The latter part of next month Edwin. Booth will give a series of performances at Sacramento. There are quite a number of Nevada City people who would like to see and hear -him, and it is possible they will be given an Opportunity todo so at a reasonable outlay. -Provided. there.are enough who will agree to go -trains can be chartered over the Narrow Gauge and Central Pacific at figures that will give greatly reduced rates of fare.

In a catch-as-catch-can wrestling match for $1,000 a side held in Milwaukee, Wis., week before last, Jack Carkeek, formerly—of —Grass—Valley, but now superintending an iron mine at Ironton, Michigan, was defeated and badly injured by Evan Lewis, ‘The Strangler,’’ whom he had twice within a few years beaten—at Cornish wrestling. The New York Herald’s, account of the affair is as follows: In the first bout the men went immediately to work in terrific style, both attempting strangling holds. After eight minutes, in which neither obtained any special advantage, Carkeek took the defensive and made no special effort, except to keep hip or shoulders up. At theend of twenty minutes Lewis got a horrible neck hold, and after two minutes of terrific struggle Carkeek gave out and went down flat amid the yells of the great audience. Tt was evident that Carkeek was in bad shape. At the end of the allotted twenty minutes for rest, the referee announced that Carkeek was very sick. Lewis’ backer offered to allow five minutes more. At the end of that time Carkeek came to the foot-lights evidently disabled and announced that he was sick, that he would allow another fall to Lewis and would take fifteen minutes more to rest. end of that time Carkeek, weak but game, came out. Lewis went for him in perfectly murderous style, and in ‘halfa minute threw him head down with such force that the -building jarred. Carkeek was partially stunned and gave upthe match.

Rumor that the Governor Will Appoint Commissioner Niles Searls. A Sacramento dispatch of Monday contains the following intelligence : Rumor will have it that the Governor will not appoint a successor to Chief Justice Morrison at present, but will await the result “of thespecial election fixed for April 12th, when the fate of the proposed amendment to the constitution will be decided. If the amendment is adopted, the judges of the court will elect Justice McKinstry Chief Justice, and then the Governor will nominate some one as Associate Justice to fill the unexpired term of Morrison, nearly four years. It is claimed that neither Sullivan nor Waters will be appointed, but that Niles Searls. will be taken from the commission and made Associate Justice. The mining people will make Searl’s fight. =e 2 ae et Amounts Paid In.

Eprror Transcript—I feel like having a growl—yes, a great big growl, and call upon the press to help me lest I go home with an eclipse over one or both of my visionary organs. I feel like finding fault with somebody, and who is it? Our mail is overdue three days, and no surety of getting it before tomorrow. We want something to read, something fresh and excitable. Tell us that we are going to have a war—yes,#-great_ war (all en newspaper) on.the other side of the great water, Yourcorrespondent, the Judge of this burg, in his communication of the 5th instant, told all about the mines, depth of snow, snowslidgs, etc., but never once spoke of the backsliding of-our mail matter. I believe it is about two-years since the citizens of Maybert petitioned for and got a postoflice here, and got, as we expected and wére entitled, a ‘regular mail brought in a regulation mail pouch closed with Uncle Sam/’s_ padlock. Not until then did we feel safe in sending mail* matter of importance, not knowing if we would ever hear from it again. After getting used to safety and promptness in mail officials, © it goes sadly against our wishes to_backslide to the old, but not forgotten style of semi-occasional mails brought in barley sacks. A mail-twice a week brought in good order during the-big . snow storm gave satisfaction, but now as the road between Washington and Maybert is open so that wheeled vehicles can easily. get through and it is not necessary to carry mail on snowshoes from Nevada City to this place, there ought not to be any excuse for negligence, especially for Maybert mail to lay over in’ Washington two nights and part of three days. We want to know who is to blame? Is it the carrier or the officers letting the contract for carrying the mail. between Washington and Maybert ? We will not growl about the weather, for itis as fine as can be. The snow having left our walks and roads, except in some cold, shady places, it putsusin mind of*“planting garden seeds and having our sociable picnics in the oak groves. All that is fine in its place, but give-us our regular mail. If we cannot have love letters, send-us a dun for our’ paper subscription. Anything for a change until the Judge gets that new road (theone that he mentioned in his communication that would be snow proof) open to your city. GROWLER. Maybert, March 12, 1887.

That there is very it may be determined by its weight, which is 35 pounds troy. Quartz of this sort is usually valued at $200 per pound, and, allowing the large margin of $1,000 for rock, the nugget would be worth $6,000. The exposed rock and great gobs of gold that hang out of its sides so as to nearly hide all other composition, and make it appear almost as melted metal, are >not jagged or rough, but, on the contrary, are smoothed.and polished in a manner that only water is capable.

By this route it is thought that more land can be irrigated by the ditch than by any yet surveyed. The work is to be done this season. will probably be continued on to near Spenceville, where the Bonanza company have much land. Then the land will be set out to clover and alfalfa. The Western Settler’s Chosen Specific. With every advance of emigration into the far West, a new demand is created for Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Newly peopled regions are frequently less salubrious than older settled localities, on account of the miasma which rises from recently cleared land, particularly along the banks of rivers that are subject to freshets. The agricultural or mining emigrant soon learns, when he does not alrea dy know, that the bitters afford the only sure protection agrinst malaria, -and those disordeis of the stomach, liver and bowels, to which climate changes, exposure, and unaccustomed or unhealthy water or diet subject him.
