pean raaranccon tae SREi { ‘TH Daily Transcript (NEVADA orry, CAL hursday, May 24, "1877, Indigent Odd Fellows’ Home, One of the glories of Odd Fellowship lies in the fxct that it watches over all.its members, is charitable to ite indigent members, and louke after the welfare of orphan children of deconsed members. For. several years past it has been evident to the “Grand ° Lodge that an Asylam for indigent members of the Order and ig home for the ‘orphan cbildren’ was _ what was required to make the institution what it is intended to be. With this view, the recent session of the Grand Lodge appointed a committee consisting of Davie Louder. beck, of San Francisco; JulesaCe:f, of Ban Fraucisco; Chas 8. Thowen, ot Watsonville; H. T. Dowance, of Stockton and Warren Heaton, of Sacramento, w.th instructions tu tution can be establisbed and maintained. When it is remembered that the us-ets of the Lodges of the jurisdiction “of Oulifor= ey ra to the enormous’ sum ‘of $1,552,555, it will not be a difficult task to establish such a home. Odd Fellowship, although it does not cultivate as much sociubility.as. some orders, has the consvulation of devoting its means to muke the poor and destitute comfortable, andthe needy bappy. -What betier mission could the Order perform? Li a i) First in the Field. By announcement in another column it will be scen that L. H. Wells, of this city, formerly one of the ownera of the Enreku Express und Stage Line, is announced as o candidate for the office of County Recorder, subject to the decision of the Republean County Convention. Mr. Wella would make’a good officer if elected. * Now theice ia broken, other candidates sbould-tuke the same step Mr. Wells bus, and let the people know what offices they desire. Some may thiok.the Offices will seek them without makivg such pubiic ap' pouncement, but they will be terribly fooled if, they wait, for that. Gentlemen come forward and let your wishes be made known that the delegates may be posted as to who will agoept the offives, so they can make their own selections of-the men who are the most competent, In every county in thé State, except this, the county candidates are announced and the people are discussing their _merits and the delegates have doubtless made up their miuds who they will support. It is true no Convention bas been culled here as yet, but friends of the various cundidates, in different parts of the county would be quite apt to become delyates for the sake of helping a person of their ohoive, It . ban agood effect on delegates, and there would not be that indifference about attending County Conventions if eandidates would come out in ad. vance and announce their candidacy. We might go on at length and expatiate upon the importance of this , Btep, bat we think we have said énough aud will now let the subject drop. 4 . Starrville, The “Grass Valley Union’’ says this is the naine of a new town which, has spruvg up near Moore’s Flat. Ite prinoipul industry is mining, and the Watt wine is the one that is being opened tvere, and which started the town into life. The Gluyas Shaft, at the Watt Mine, Starrville, ig going down us rapidly as itis possible to sink. The.prospects of the shaft to lap a rich lead of gravel: are very bright, and the property will be worked by drifting and not-by~ bydraulicing; the drifting system is get-. ting to be more in favor than the “other on account of economy anda more complete saving of gold. Yesterday morning Wm. Watt and A. B. Dibble Esqrs. went up to Starrville to view the new town and they . . will probabiy have the streets properly laid out. We understand that in Starrville no pedro will be allowed to ke played. \\ Board of City Trustees. The meeting of the Board of City Vrustees, appointed for this evenfog, bas heen postponed to Friday . @P°2 _ Tax pasting of printed slips on the “back of a postu! card obliges the reaipieut to pay additional postage. This fact is not generally kavwn . May and fat. ‘The mooniight ‘exoursion will take place to-night. The Railroad Company have made every arrangement for the safety and comfort of those who muy’ desire to make the trip. Carley & Mahon’ tiave prepared to entettaix all who visi¢ them in a ptincely style. Those who go will assuredly have one of the pleasant.est rides imaginable, The moon’ shines brightly now. A brass band goes with the-exoursion train, and Maller’s quadrille band will furnish . masic forthe dunce. We suppose this city will demonstrate ite old time reputation of turning out the jolliest kind of a crowd. The dancing . floor has been” inclosed with canvas so that it-will be as well protected from the weather as a hall would be, aud t.ere will be no more danger from exposure to the night air. : The ‘‘Union” says Frank Aumer brought to Grasa Valley on Tuesduy a splendid lot of beef cattle and sheep, These quadrupeds were in the very finéat condition, being young, healtby A dispateh from Chests, Pennsy!vania, on Tuesday Jast, Bays: ‘The ‘Saratoga, a large iron steamship, ‘which was to be launcher, started from its blocking sooner than expeéted, killing and wounding many, Six dead bodies have: beeu removed. It is sapposed that about forty men were under the Saratoga when she / went off. An order was given for them to come out, but was not heard. The names of the killed, us far. as koown, are Edward Fowby,John . Nelson, Charles Wright and Edward Burke, The wounded are George Woof, mortally, and Barney Cann. n’ aud Walter Parkivson, seriously. . It is thought some of the workmen were killed and «ragged into the water by tle ship. Some of the deud are horribly mangled, ove be-. with their’ legs and arms torn off, The ship yard is thronged witb friends and relatives of the victims, The-total number of dead in consequence of the accident at the ship yard is seven. Iu addition to those . Somehow Frank” always finds thatkind of stock. He is not afraid of the riding part of the _busiess when he is looking*fier cattle. Now comes the ‘‘Truckee Republican’’ and says that ‘‘whife hard times and business depression. prevail throughout the lower .counties, -the-prospect for business, thrift and generul prosperity inthe County of Nevada were never better,’ and then goes on with a flattering review of affairs all over the county, thus giving the ‘‘Plucer Herald” another chance to squeal. Hon. Win. Watt and Hon, A. .B. Dibble, passed through this city yesteiday ‘on the way to their quiet homes ip Grass Vulley, These gentlemen bave just returned. from Sturrville, Watt Mive and Gluyas Saft, allin Eureka Township. They report everything prospéring in that section of the’ county, and Dibb'e predicts thatit will not be long before Starrville will be to Eureka ‘Township what North Sap Juan is.to Bridgeport, The trial of Jos. Dysart, who was indicted by the Grand Jury for attempting to take the life of ©. Charl-. top, at Truckee, some time since, was set for trial in the County Court for Monday, but was postponed for theterm. When the trial comes off ‘there will be a great many witnesses here from ‘Truckee, H.M Milan, one of the persons who was arrested on suspicion of being implicated in the worder of Jack Tallon, bas been discharged, after an examination before Judge Keiser, at Truck e, so we learn from the **Republican,"’ On acoountof the moonlight excursion, Muller & Beckett will not give their weekly dancing assembly tomorrow night. On Friday eveniny, June ist, however, they will be pleased to meet all their old friends. M. R. Beard, Exq., book-keeper forthe house’of H. 8.

'Defendant having been heretofore arraigned.and having entered a plea of not guilty, this day was set down for the trial of this cause. On motion of D, J.

Thereupon, it is: i that this cause be continell the term, abd that the Clerk certify and send up to said pony 2. and orders heretoae : arned until shee alrendy reported, . J. J. Crew was instuntly killed, and Geo. C. Woof und Burney Cameron didd-at 11 o’¢lock A.M. Three persons were wounded;: ull of whom will probably: recover. All.of the killed aud wounded were worknien employed at the yards, aud were engaged in knocking blocks from unddr the keel, The scene during the time the ehip was going vff wus almost: heartrending, men being séen* struggling to escape while the huge blucks rolled by and the ship crushed tuem to a jelly. No assistauce could possibly be rendered by those who were standing by. Iustead of cheers, sach as usually greet a launch, # wail of anguish went up, aud shrieks of pain rent the air, As soon as possible the dead snd wounded were carried: to the yard uffice and physicians summoved. Abvut 1900 men are employed at the yard, and -friends of nearly all of them rushed to inquire for them. Flags are at half uiast ‘throughout the town, and work at the yurd has been stopped. Juba, Roach, proprietor of the sbip-y rd, hus ordered mouvey to be furnished to the-families of the killed and wounded. Joho Fountain, who bad entire vhatge of the launch, “maken the following statement: “I found that the ship was ready to move aud called for all hands te get from under before I commenced cutting the loops. The men who were down by the after blocking evideutly did not hear the order, ordid not obey, as they had fully five minutes to get out from thetime the order was given uatil the ship started, Some of:the. men rewained uuder, which is fre quently the cuse, to attend to the turward blocking.” A Falsehood, The Son Francisco Chronicle is daily abusing Senator Sargent and each: urticle contains so many lies that it would be impossible to attempt to answer them, if anybody was so disposed. Iu its issue of Tuesday it suys: “‘Surgent was at one time the owner and editor of a Republican daily paper at Nevada.”” Sargent never owned oredited ad ily paper in Nevada City in his life,and the editor -. of the Chronicle knew he was lying when-he saidso, Mr. Sargent did own and edit a weekly paper in this city at 0.1e time and ceased his connection with it in 1857, since which time he has had nothing to do with any paper, , This is only . one out of a thousand and one lies that that dirty sheet has been publishing against bin, Mining Stocks.
