The Supervisors of Sacramento county have received the following: : : Iowa Hix, May 9th, 1889. * " ¥ ‘fo the Honotable Board of Supervisors ‘of Sarramento—Gentlemen : In an article in the Sacramento Bee of May 7th, my name appears at the he.d of a list of persons and compa: : nies charged with operating hydraulic aps mines in defiance of. the law. The article refers to me as follows: ‘Iowa Hili__mine—run by two Chinamen, owned by J. B. Hobson.” The statement is not true, and your informant is a malicious liar. I was enjoined in 1886, and since that time T have not_either directly or indirectiy operated a mine by hydranlic process, neither do Lintend to do so unlessI can do so openly an! lawfuliy. My lowa Hill mine has not been worked in any mf since 1886. There is-no ~ “hydraulie‘pipe or rig on the mine, and ~ there never has been a Chinaman em‘ ployed by me to do any work on the : Iowa Hill mine or any other mine owned by me. The adjoining mine owned .by William Weisler, against whom Sacramento county, about a ‘year ago, was induced to bring a suit through similar false representations, is engaged with one white. employe in taking out his old fiumes and cleaning his bedrock in the same-manner as he was working when a committee “of your Honorable Board visited the mine about a year ago, and there has . mot been a Chinamen at work in Weisler’s claim since 1885. The article referred to, as it reads, charges me with contempt of Court and the law, and does me great injustice. I most respectfully ask your Honorable Board to do me justice by correcting the ‘statement. Very respectfully, yours, Joun. B. Hosson. ities Renounced the World. The Tidings of Saturday had the following: This morning at 7 o’clock Miss Mary E.

Harmless, “=< era Experience of a Man Who Used Cigarettes, Cigars, a Meerschaum and a Corn-Cob with Very Little Satis~ faction to Huuself, . ft : < ein When I lived in London I travéléd every day some distance on the underground ra‘way, writes Luke Sharp in the Detroit Free Press. I got on at Turnham Green station, in the western suburbs, and got out at the Temple, right in the heart of the metropolis. This was inthe morning. In the evening, naturally, I reversed the journey. tothe train, and when the journey was finished I found myself down under ground. When the down journey was ended it left me away up on a station perched on an embankment,. It is wonderful the curious exLondon. alee The journey under ground never quite suited my taste for traveling. The scenery in the tunnel is not at all beautiful nor even interesting. But what I most objected to was a certain sulphuriness in the atmosphere which seemed to irritate my breathing’ apparatus. I asked the company to remedy this, but they claimed.that that was the style of air demanded by the majority of their passengers, and they declined to change it merely to oblige one captious man, who would probably growl no matter what they did. They said that if I wanted mountain air I should go to Switzerland. I pointed out to them that it was very convenient for a person living. in Switzerland to come to his office in the Strand every morning at nine o’clock, but that made no impression on them, and as I had not time that year to build an elevated road to suit my own requirements I had to put up with the underground, although I managed to give the company a good. deal of trouble with my complaints. This roundabout introduction is for the purpose—of showing how,-annoyed by the smoke of the engines, I took to smoki ~ self. A physician whom I suspect of} a grudge at me recommended me ‘to sa while on the underground journeys, and al. . though up to that time -I--had -never-. — smoked a whiff in my life, 1. took to the apparently mild and harmless cigarette. I thought I could get as little of the effects of tobacco out of a cigarette as out of an form the weed assumes, and [still aanese to that opinion. ~~ Without intending to bragin any way,I may say that by perseverance and strict at? tention to business, I soon augmented my ability as a cigarette consumer. I beganina small way, smoking three or four cigarettes a day, and by industry I got to be a regular wholesale establishment, burmiag up from forty to fifty cigarettes every twenty-four hours. Naturally I was very proud of this and.I came to be very much respected—by dealers in tobacco—and they pointed to me asan example of what might be done by dogged adhesion to the work on hand. Not feeling quite up to the mark, I one day consulted my regular physician. He felt my pulse and shook his head gravely. When my doctor shakes his head it means at least five dollars out of my pocket, so I began to feel alarmed. “Do you smoke?’’ he astrad. “ Yes.” : i" : * What ?’” ee The morning journey was the up trip, and on that one I had to climb & stairway to get periences a person can haye in a place like hy nage .

The Downieville Messenger has the following: It is proposed to put a steam wagon on the road befween Peck’s sawmill, five miles‘southeast of ‘Leyalton, and Verdi, in Nevada. The i route would be over the road to Truckee, four miles to Sardine Valley, : thence eleven miles over the old Henness Pass to Verdi, on the C. P. Railroad. The wagon weighs about twenty-eight tons, and the fifteen-mile trip and back, taking out 26,000 feet of lumber, will be easily. made in a day. It is also. proposed to ‘transport wood to the railroad. The cvst of transport‘ing lumber, by this means, wi.l be about one-chird the cost of hauling by teams. Some objection is raised by teamsters who expected to do the hauling for the mii!. 3 A Chinaman’s Find.

You ean use all the tobacco you want—but take it in the form of good cigars.” : Well, I switched off on the cigar habit. L applied to the smoking of cigars the same habits of earnest application that had been so signally successful with the cigarettes. Next consultation . had on the subject of health with the M. D. (same man) he said: “ Smoke any ?” * A little.”’ “ What?" “Good cigars.” * How many ?” “Qh, five orsixaday.” _ “Well, you'll have to stop that. It’s kill ing you.” '“Why, I thought you said that tobaeccc was pa « “Oh, tobacco’s allright, but not in the form of cigars: Take toa pipe: “That's the only rational way of using tobacco.”’ , Sol began “hitting the pipe.’ Got myself a nice meerschaum—carved beautifully —and began to color it. When I tackled the doctor afterwards he said: “Use tobacco at all?” “Yes.” a > “How?” “a «a “Ina pipe.”” ‘*What sort of a pipe?” “Nice meerschaum.” “Let’s see it.” . I took the pipe out of its silk-lined case and he looked at itand then at mein $ pitying way.*‘No harm in tobacco, is there?’ . “Oh, no harm in tobaceo,” he said. “Of course not. But I should think that a man of sense would see that smoking the same pipe is a most dangerous occupation. It gets saturated with nicotine and so yow’ll have to quit this pipe or write out a receipt for your life insurance.’ “Well, what am Ito do? Chew or snuff?” “Neither. Take a cheap pipe that you cai throw away. Buy a new one every week,’ I then took to the corn-cob pipe—retail price five cents. It has a label on it that reads: “Missouri Meerschaum.” It is made by some patent process from the cob of Indian corn, and it is very light and portable. 1 took great comfort out of the corncobs. They are varnished on the outside, and when you get a good fire started this varnish begins to sizzle and fume and fill up the room with a delightful burntleather odor: an The physician called in on me one day while I was smoking. ‘Good gracious!" he cried, aghast, “don’t you know that the corncob is the most déadly thing you can smoke?”’ y “I throw oné away every day.or two and take a newéne. I buy them by the car lot— job lot, you know.” “That's just the trouble. € varnish on ew pipe is of the most d@ngerous character, and when you inhale it you won’t live very long, let me tell-_you that.” ‘ Now, what I want to say to inventors is this: Set your wits to work and invent some plan by which tobacco can be consumed without endangering life.

Simplest Promises to Pay Known to legal or business forms, It simply says, ‘‘Pay your premiums and we will pay your insurance.” Look at your lovely wife and your-beautiful children. Look at your widowed mother, the hand that cared for you inthe . hours of your weakness, and is now resting gently upon you, and remember every hour that passes now is hurrying you along to your end, Take advantage of what Science and centuries of experi have pl din your reach by Insurance.’ To that lovely ‘wife, to those prattling innocents, tothat saintly form whose eyes, lacking the lustre of. youth, and hair ‘white with the frost of agé, yet tell you a tale of love and-dero” tion to duty. Give to these, we say, the assurance that your love and your duty extend beyond ‘he grave. If you go to South American mines, to South African diamond fields or to partake ofthe succulent orange on its native Floridian heath—well, we guess you’ll be a little more careful of yourself than when breathing the pure air, and attending to your routine labor at home in the pine clad Sierras. Should you take a policy today, and in a few years . Your Pay-gravel is worked out, Well, we won’t throw you overboard. You have acquired an equity, proportioned to your payments, in your policy, and that we will give you most cheerfully. Bat when an Insurance Company says to you—as does the Manhattan Life Insurance Company of New York—"My friend, I am forty yearsof age and in my day have seen many great financial panics which have shaken the thrones of princes and tottered your Banks and your Railroads, but at no time in my life has any creditor of mine had slightest cause to fear my stability look where you may toinvest your money securely in America, and you will find that the ‘promise to pay’ signed by your own Government, is the only bond in the market rated as more sound and staple than my own.’’* Having acquired this information, suppose a special agent of the U. 8. Treasury should callon you today and say: ‘The Government would like to sell you bonds for any amount between $1,000 and $30,000, and if it is not convenient for you to make the investment at once, we will allow you to pay for the bonds‘in ten equal annua: installments !” And suppose in addition to this, the Government, wishing to make this the most desirable investment in the world, should stipulate in the bond not only to pay them atthe end of the term, but in case of your previous death, to pay them to your family, and at the same time release your family from paying any further money, would you not at once close with such an offer? And yet this is practically what the Manhattan Life Insurance Company,of New York, hag done and is doing. An ordinary endowment Life Insurance policy is a More profitableinvestment than a Government Bond. A Four per cent JU. 8. Bond for $10,000, at the present average premium costs about $12,000.

The same sum of $12,000 will secure a paid up pry oly Sig a a due the same fine for over $27,000, : This is a $7,000 better return than the Government Bond, with the great added advantage, that incase of his death arene png otena ne interim, the iusured y would a D whole $27 008. once receive the The Manhattan Life Insurance Company during the past twenty-five years*has paid nearly $3,000,000 in death claims end’ oa dowment pollotes on the Pacific Coast without a contest.

The Supervisors of Sacramento county have received the following: : : Iowa Hix, May 9th, 1889. * " ¥ ‘fo the Honotable Board of Supervisors ‘of Sarramento—Gentlemen : In an article in the Sacramento Bee of May 7th, my name appears at the he.d of a list of persons and compa: : nies charged with operating hydraulic aps mines in defiance of. the law. The article refers to me as follows: ‘Iowa Hili__mine—run by two Chinamen, owned by J. B. Hobson.” The statement is not true, and your informant is a malicious liar. I was enjoined in 1886, and since that time T have not_either directly or indirectiy operated a mine by hydranlic process, neither do Lintend to do so unlessI can do so openly an! lawfuliy. My lowa Hill mine has not been worked in any mf since 1886. There is-no ~ “hydraulie‘pipe or rig on the mine, and ~ there never has been a Chinaman em‘ ployed by me to do any work on the : Iowa Hill mine or any other mine owned by me. The adjoining mine owned .by William Weisler, against whom Sacramento county, about a ‘year ago, was induced to bring a suit through similar false representations, is engaged with one white. employe in taking out his old fiumes and cleaning his bedrock in the same-manner as he was working when a committee “of your Honorable Board visited the mine about a year ago, and there has . mot been a Chinamen at work in Weisler’s claim since 1885. The article referred to, as it reads, charges me with contempt of Court and the law, and does me great injustice. I most respectfully ask your Honorable Board to do me justice by correcting the ‘statement. Very respectfully, yours, Joun. B. Hosson. ities Renounced the World. The Tidings of Saturday had the following: This morning at 7 o’clock Miss Mary E.

Harmless, “=< era Experience of a Man Who Used Cigarettes, Cigars, a Meerschaum and a Corn-Cob with Very Little Satis~ faction to Huuself, . ft : < ein When I lived in London I travéléd every day some distance on the underground ra‘way, writes Luke Sharp in the Detroit Free Press. I got on at Turnham Green station, in the western suburbs, and got out at the Temple, right in the heart of the metropolis. This was inthe morning. In the evening, naturally, I reversed the journey. tothe train, and when the journey was finished I found myself down under ground. When the down journey was ended it left me away up on a station perched on an embankment,. It is wonderful the curious exLondon. alee The journey under ground never quite suited my taste for traveling. The scenery in the tunnel is not at all beautiful nor even interesting. But what I most objected to was a certain sulphuriness in the atmosphere which seemed to irritate my breathing’ apparatus. I asked the company to remedy this, but they claimed.that that was the style of air demanded by the majority of their passengers, and they declined to change it merely to oblige one captious man, who would probably growl no matter what they did. They said that if I wanted mountain air I should go to Switzerland. I pointed out to them that it was very convenient for a person living. in Switzerland to come to his office in the Strand every morning at nine o’clock, but that made no impression on them, and as I had not time that year to build an elevated road to suit my own requirements I had to put up with the underground, although I managed to give the company a good. deal of trouble with my complaints. This roundabout introduction is for the purpose—of showing how,-annoyed by the smoke of the engines, I took to smoki ~ self. A physician whom I suspect of} a grudge at me recommended me ‘to sa while on the underground journeys, and al. . though up to that time -I--had -never-. — smoked a whiff in my life, 1. took to the apparently mild and harmless cigarette. I thought I could get as little of the effects of tobacco out of a cigarette as out of an form the weed assumes, and [still aanese to that opinion. ~~ Without intending to bragin any way,I may say that by perseverance and strict at? tention to business, I soon augmented my ability as a cigarette consumer. I beganina small way, smoking three or four cigarettes a day, and by industry I got to be a regular wholesale establishment, burmiag up from forty to fifty cigarettes every twenty-four hours. Naturally I was very proud of this and.I came to be very much respected—by dealers in tobacco—and they pointed to me asan example of what might be done by dogged adhesion to the work on hand. Not feeling quite up to the mark, I one day consulted my regular physician. He felt my pulse and shook his head gravely. When my doctor shakes his head it means at least five dollars out of my pocket, so I began to feel alarmed. “Do you smoke?’’ he astrad. “ Yes.” : i" : * What ?’” ee The morning journey was the up trip, and on that one I had to climb & stairway to get periences a person can haye in a place like hy nage .

The Downieville Messenger has the following: It is proposed to put a steam wagon on the road befween Peck’s sawmill, five miles‘southeast of ‘Leyalton, and Verdi, in Nevada. The i route would be over the road to Truckee, four miles to Sardine Valley, : thence eleven miles over the old Henness Pass to Verdi, on the C. P. Railroad. The wagon weighs about twenty-eight tons, and the fifteen-mile trip and back, taking out 26,000 feet of lumber, will be easily. made in a day. It is also. proposed to ‘transport wood to the railroad. The cvst of transport‘ing lumber, by this means, wi.l be about one-chird the cost of hauling by teams. Some objection is raised by teamsters who expected to do the hauling for the mii!. 3 A Chinaman’s Find.

You ean use all the tobacco you want—but take it in the form of good cigars.” : Well, I switched off on the cigar habit. L applied to the smoking of cigars the same habits of earnest application that had been so signally successful with the cigarettes. Next consultation . had on the subject of health with the M. D. (same man) he said: “ Smoke any ?” * A little.”’ “ What?" “Good cigars.” * How many ?” “Qh, five orsixaday.” _ “Well, you'll have to stop that. It’s kill ing you.” '“Why, I thought you said that tobaeccc was pa « “Oh, tobacco’s allright, but not in the form of cigars: Take toa pipe: “That's the only rational way of using tobacco.”’ , Sol began “hitting the pipe.’ Got myself a nice meerschaum—carved beautifully —and began to color it. When I tackled the doctor afterwards he said: “Use tobacco at all?” “Yes.” a > “How?” “a «a “Ina pipe.”” ‘*What sort of a pipe?” “Nice meerschaum.” “Let’s see it.” . I took the pipe out of its silk-lined case and he looked at itand then at mein $ pitying way.*‘No harm in tobacco, is there?’ .

“Oh, no harm in tobaceo,” he said. “Of course not. But I should think that a man of sense would see that smoking the same pipe is a most dangerous occupation. It gets saturated with nicotine and so yow’ll have to quit this pipe or write out a receipt for your life insurance.’ “Well, what am Ito do? Chew or snuff?” “Neither. Take a cheap pipe that you cai throw away. Buy a new one every week,’ I then took to the corn-cob pipe—retail price five cents. It has a label on it that reads: “Missouri Meerschaum.” It is made by some patent process from the cob of Indian corn, and it is very light and portable. 1 took great comfort out of the corncobs. They are varnished on the outside, and when you get a good fire started this varnish begins to sizzle and fume and fill up the room with a delightful burntleather odor: an The physician called in on me one day while I was smoking. ‘Good gracious!" he cried, aghast, “don’t you know that the corncob is the most déadly thing you can smoke?”’ y “I throw oné away every day.or two and take a newéne. I buy them by the car lot— job lot, you know.” “That's just the trouble. € varnish on ew pipe is of the most d@ngerous character, and when you inhale it you won’t live very long, let me tell-_you that.” ‘ Now, what I want to say to inventors is this: Set your wits to work and invent some plan by which tobacco can be consumed without endangering life.

Simplest Promises to Pay Known to legal or business forms, It simply says, ‘‘Pay your premiums and we will pay your insurance.” Look at your lovely wife and your-beautiful children. Look at your widowed mother, the hand that cared for you inthe . hours of your weakness, and is now resting gently upon you, and remember every hour that passes now is hurrying you along to your end, Take advantage of what Science and centuries of experi have pl din your reach by Insurance.’ To that lovely ‘wife, to those prattling innocents, tothat saintly form whose eyes, lacking the lustre of. youth, and hair ‘white with the frost of agé, yet tell you a tale of love and-dero” tion to duty. Give to these, we say, the assurance that your love and your duty extend beyond ‘he grave. If you go to South American mines, to South African diamond fields or to partake ofthe succulent orange on its native Floridian heath—well, we guess you’ll be a little more careful of yourself than when breathing the pure air, and attending to your routine labor at home in the pine clad Sierras. Should you take a policy today, and in a few years . Your Pay-gravel is worked out, Well, we won’t throw you overboard. You have acquired an equity, proportioned to your payments, in your policy, and that we will give you most cheerfully. Bat when an Insurance Company says to you—as does the Manhattan Life Insurance Company of New York—"My friend, I am forty yearsof age and in my day have seen many great financial panics which have shaken the thrones of princes and tottered your Banks and your Railroads, but at no time in my life has any creditor of mine had slightest cause to fear my stability look where you may toinvest your money securely in America, and you will find that the ‘promise to pay’ signed by your own Government, is the only bond in the market rated as more sound and staple than my own.’’* Having acquired this information, suppose a special agent of the U. 8. Treasury should callon you today and say: ‘The Government would like to sell you bonds for any amount between $1,000 and $30,000, and if it is not convenient for you to make the investment at once, we will allow you to pay for the bonds‘in ten equal annua: installments !” And suppose in addition to this, the Government, wishing to make this the most desirable investment in the world, should stipulate in the bond not only to pay them atthe end of the term, but in case of your previous death, to pay them to your family, and at the same time release your family from paying any further money, would you not at once close with such an offer? And yet this is practically what the Manhattan Life Insurance Company,of New York, hag done and is doing. An ordinary endowment Life Insurance policy is a More profitableinvestment than a Government Bond. A Four per cent JU. 8. Bond for $10,000, at the present average premium costs about $12,000.
