Yesterday morning about halfpast two o’clock a loud explosion occurred in the business part of town, awakening many citizens who though the Fourth had arrived ahead of.time. Officer Marker was in the vicinity of the City'Hall, and rushing down Broad street made a hasty examination of the Bank and express Office but found nothing disturbed there. He then ran down to Union street, directed by the fumes of giant powder coming from that direction. Immediately upon turning into Union street he saw where the trouble was. An unknown party had exploded a giant powder cattridge on the sill ofthe door leading to the apartment in the basement of the Thomas House vacated last Monday by R. M. Wilkins, agent of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, and who is now located on Commercial street near Main. The explosion had shattered allthe glass in the windows and doors of that room, and broken several panes of glass lighting the hallway adjoining and in Mrs. Arnhart’s dressmaking establishment next below. The woodwork of the door and sill where the cartridge was planted was somewhat broken and a large hole was blown through the planking that covers the -flume extending along there, the giant powder, as is usual, expending the greater part of its force in a downward direction. Tucked under the street doot of the hallway was a piece of cardboard eontaining some scurrilous matter printed by cutting lettera out of newspaper advertisements and pasting them together. This message was addressed to Mr. Wilkins and his friend. John Morrison, who is a blacksmith, Strange to say, none of the lodgers at the Thomas House were awakened by the explosion, but the little sons of Mr. Conlan, the proprietor, heard it. Jude Anderson, who sleeps there, says he remembers being disturbed during the night by a loud noise; but he thought it was all a dream till he got up and saw what damage had been done. “The Hidden Hand.” The Theatre at this city will be occupied next Wednesday evening by Whiteley’s original ‘‘Hidden Hand” Company, in Mrs. Southworth’s popular and favorite story of that name, This company presents aversion of this southern romance: differing materially from all others, and is a much stronger and better dramatization than the one used by the other companies. Social scenery is carried by the.Company, and will add much toa _ proper stage effect. The policy of the management seems to be to furnish a stcong and meritorious performance, equal in detail to all firstclass companies and with a fine cast, to packed houses at popular prices, and the wonderful fisancial success that has attended Whiteley’s “Hidden Hand” Company everywhere is a sure evidence that their pulicy is a proper one, The Sheblcy Hatchery. The State Fish Commissioners have 70,000 young trout at the Shebley hatchery, in this county, ranging in age from four weeks to two months, allof which will be planted within the next few weeks. The Commissioners this year allow their plant more time in the hatchery Next week from 8,000 to 10,000 will be deposited in the streams of Santa Cruz county. ‘A FINE assortment of fresh candy for the 4th of July at Brand bros’ bookstore. jy3-2t.

Sam Davis taterviews the Lawson Sisters. The editor of the Carson Appeal has interviewed Sophia and Fannie of the holiness band, and permitted Brother Newton to be present at the interview. In his columnand a half interview he states that ‘‘the two sisters are what may be called religious enthusiasts,” Miss Sophia is quoted as saying ‘‘We will do a great work here (in Carson) and save many souls,” while the lovely Fannie remarks with great force and determination, -‘‘We will. meet the devil here and we will conquer him.” This, of course, had no reference to Bro. Davis, still the application might by some be considered apropos. The Carson scribe, however, got back in good shape in reply to Bro. Newton, who chipped in with the query: ‘‘Are not many people here of a grasping nature, reaching after the riches of this world, and unmindful of laying up treasures in the next?” ‘Indeed they are, sir, as graspers and reachera the people of this locality cannot be equaled in the west. The trouble seems to mainly lie in the fact that there is not enough capital per capitum to go around, and a general scramble for what there is in sight results, __Most_of the business is conducted here on the principle of realizing about .40 cents on the dollar, but when there men fail they only liquidate on a 15 per cent, basis, and you see somebedy has to lose the difference, Then again a large majority of people purchase goods and refuse to pay for anything if they can possibly avoid it. Ifyou could so regenerate this town as to induce‘ people to recognize the sacredness of a debt, it might perhaps not be the entire scheme of salvation, but it would go a long way toward breakiug the geound upon which the true seed of thie gospel might be sown, and the resulc would be a harvest worthy of the sickle of an earnest evangelist,” _>-——— The Magenta Mine. According to the Tidings, the transfer of the majority of the Magenta mining stock, as mentioned in this paper yesterday, is not yet completed. That paper says: W: B. Bourn, of the Empire mine, is acting for parties in San\Francisco and they will probably purchase the majority of the Magenta stock, giving a very good price. The arrangements will probably be consummated on July 21. Purchasing parties are now examining titles. In the meantime the drain tunnel is being run, and the mine is under the. supervision of James Paul. When the bargain is fixed then the mine will be placed under different management. C. of BR. C.

Yesterday morning about halfpast two o’clock a loud explosion occurred in the business part of town, awakening many citizens who though the Fourth had arrived ahead of.time. Officer Marker was in the vicinity of the City'Hall, and rushing down Broad street made a hasty examination of the Bank and express Office but found nothing disturbed there. He then ran down to Union street, directed by the fumes of giant powder coming from that direction. Immediately upon turning into Union street he saw where the trouble was. An unknown party had exploded a giant powder cattridge on the sill ofthe door leading to the apartment in the basement of the Thomas House vacated last Monday by R. M. Wilkins, agent of the Singer Sewing Machine Company, and who is now located on Commercial street near Main. The explosion had shattered allthe glass in the windows and doors of that room, and broken several panes of glass lighting the hallway adjoining and in Mrs. Arnhart’s dressmaking establishment next below. The woodwork of the door and sill where the cartridge was planted was somewhat broken and a large hole was blown through the planking that covers the -flume extending along there, the giant powder, as is usual, expending the greater part of its force in a downward direction. Tucked under the street doot of the hallway was a piece of cardboard eontaining some scurrilous matter printed by cutting lettera out of newspaper advertisements and pasting them together. This message was addressed to Mr. Wilkins and his friend. John Morrison, who is a blacksmith, Strange to say, none of the lodgers at the Thomas House were awakened by the explosion, but the little sons of Mr. Conlan, the proprietor, heard it. Jude Anderson, who sleeps there, says he remembers being disturbed during the night by a loud noise; but he thought it was all a dream till he got up and saw what damage had been done. “The Hidden Hand.” The Theatre at this city will be occupied next Wednesday evening by Whiteley’s original ‘‘Hidden Hand” Company, in Mrs. Southworth’s popular and favorite story of that name, This company presents aversion of this southern romance: differing materially from all others, and is a much stronger and better dramatization than the one used by the other companies. Social scenery is carried by the.Company, and will add much toa _ proper stage effect. The policy of the management seems to be to furnish a stcong and meritorious performance, equal in detail to all firstclass companies and with a fine cast, to packed houses at popular prices, and the wonderful fisancial success that has attended Whiteley’s “Hidden Hand” Company everywhere is a sure evidence that their pulicy is a proper one, The Sheblcy Hatchery. The State Fish Commissioners have 70,000 young trout at the Shebley hatchery, in this county, ranging in age from four weeks to two months, allof which will be planted within the next few weeks.

I¥ you want to buy Hats at half} INTERVIEWED. Sam Davis taterviews the Lawson Sisters. The editor of the Carson Appeal has interviewed Sophia and Fannie of the holiness band, and permitted Brother Newton to be present at the interview. In his columnand a half interview he states that ‘‘the two sisters are what may be called religious enthusiasts,” Miss Sophia is quoted as saying ‘‘We will do a great work here (in Carson) and save many souls,” while the lovely Fannie remarks with great force and determination, -‘‘We will. meet the devil here and we will conquer him.” This, of course, had no reference to Bro. Davis, still the application might by some be considered apropos. The Carson scribe, however, got back in good shape in reply to Bro. Newton, who chipped in with the query: ‘‘Are not many people here of a grasping nature, reaching after the riches of this world, and unmindful of laying up treasures in the next?” ‘Indeed they are, sir, as graspers and reachera the people of this locality cannot be equaled in the west. The trouble seems to mainly lie in the fact that there is not enough capital per capitum to go around, and a general scramble for what there is in sight results, __Most_of the business is conducted here on the principle of realizing about .40 cents on the dollar, but when there men fail they only liquidate on a 15 per cent, basis, and you see somebedy has to lose the difference, Then again a large majority of people purchase goods and refuse to pay for anything if they can possibly avoid it. Ifyou could so regenerate this town as to induce‘ people to recognize the sacredness of a debt, it might perhaps not be the entire scheme of salvation, but it would go a long way toward breakiug the geound upon which the true seed of thie gospel might be sown, and the resulc would be a harvest worthy of the sickle of an earnest evangelist,” _>-——— The Magenta Mine. According to the Tidings, the transfer of the majority of the Magenta mining stock, as mentioned in this paper yesterday, is not yet completed. That paper says: W: B. Bourn, of the Empire mine, is acting for parties in San\Francisco and they will probably purchase the majority of the Magenta stock, giving a very good price. The arrangements will probably be consummated on July 21. Purchasing parties are now examining titles. In the meantime the drain tunnel is being run, and the mine is under the. supervision of James Paul. When the bargain is fixed then the mine will be placed under different management. C. of BR. C.
