' Fire at Grass Valley. About 12 o’clock Wednesday night a fire broke out in the office of Dr, Ivancovich on Mill street, Grass Valley, burning the roof off the build-ing, the water damaging the goods to a considerable extent The other occupante of the bui ing were W. C. Pope, undertaker, John Prodger, jeweler, and Mr. Corwin, saddler. * Most of the coutents of the building are reported to have been saved. The firemen had a hard time preventing the flames spreading to adjoining structures; Theseene.of the fire is just across the street from where Dv. Harris’ -building was recently destroyed. She Shuddered. After lecturing in this city and Grass Valley, Miss Willard went over.to the State of Nevada and tried to work up.a temperance boom -, in that sinful borough.

A San Francisco Lady Drops a Vain-. _ “Battie,” the bright San Francisco ‘correspondent of the Tidings, writes to that paper: The recent publication of compositions on Nevada county, written by applicants for certificates to teach, affordsa prolific subject for thought, The com positions themselves proved how inadequate has been the system of teaching this subject by the, instructors where these applicants have been educated. I presume they were . graduates of the public schools of Nevada county. If so, the faulty construetion. of their sentences, the confused method of expressing their thoughts, aud the evident absence of though? Upon a subject which ought to be familiar with every Nevadacounty pupil, is more of a disgrace to the teachers of those applicants than to tle applicants themselves, . They evidently did the best they knew how, They told all they had been taught about the county, and in as good English as they possessed. Instead of holding them up to ridicule, they should be encouraged to do better for their pupils than their’ teachers have done by them, The fault lies in the system of teaching and the incapacity of teachers, Any devil in a printing office can excel most teachers in composing clear cut sentences, no matter what his education may have been before becoming a type setter. The little unfortunate deaf and dumb children under the charge of Dr, Wilkinson at the Asylum in Berkeley, ranging all the way from ten to fourteen years. of age, will write yon a short essay, upon most any subject, in the best of-English. Children in Kindergarten schools in this city areable to frame correct sentences, punctuate’ properly and speak accurately about the subject matter of their daily lessons. Why can not the pupils of the schools of your county do likewise ? _They are as quick of comprehension and as apt to learn as any children here or elsewhere. Simply because they have not been taught properly. Aud yet, in each of the compositions pubj lished, the writer extolethe school system of .Nevadacounty. The teachers of the schools there are either: inefficient, -or they have. no methods, or very inefficient ones. Probably the fault lies in the system. That ought to be eradicated, and just that kind of work ought to be accomplished at the annual Teachers’ fostitute. That is the purpose of such meetings. If the. teachers of Nevada county will procure a competent instructor at their next annual meeting their pupils will not in future be credited with compositiqns of so little merit. “If the methods by which the printer, the deaf and dumb and the kindergarten pupils become easy and graceful writers could be-pursued for one year in your schools, a marked improvement would iminediately follow. The foundation mnst be laid in* the primary grades and _ followed up throughout the course. Then.no pupil will be guilty of perpetrating the misstatement that ‘‘a lone tree on a high boulder represents true manliness.” He will make it two boulders, at least, JANAUSCHEK. Mer Great Suceess Before a Large ‘ Reno Audience. The Reno Gazette of Wednesday says this of the play which will be produced in Nevada City next Mouday evening: Janauschek, whose rank in the profession has long since won cordial recognition in both Europe and America, presented thie beautiful drama of ‘*Mary Stuart” at the Theatre last evening. The dress circle and gallery were crowded, and from the time the curtain rose to the end of the last act the large audience was held entranced. In the second act, where the unhappy Mary is subjected to the insults and taunts of Elizabeth, the cold-blooded Queen of England, is the most effective situation, and affords a graad opportunity for Madame Janauschek to display her wonderful powers, Her acting in the scene where Mary, Queen of Scots, denounces Elizabeth -as.a bastard, and declares herself the Queen of England, is thrillingly grand. The closing scenes were managed by Janauschek with the care one expects at her bands. Her support is notas good as she should have, but taking the stock as a whole they are far above the average. It ‘. was areal treat, after we have had so much amusement lately of a light character, to have the pleasure of witnessing sucha genuine dramatic event, é ‘ Seti A Narrow Escape. At Colfax afew days since couductor Loughridge distinguished himself by saving from what might have been a terible death a sevenyear-old lad named Williams who iu attempting to cress the railroad track was knocked down by an aptrucks of the car had passed over the boy as he lay between the rails, before the other truck reached him.

Points of Interest Gleaned from Yesterday's “Dalene” The tribute contracts in the Hartrey mine havingexpired, the owners has put on a regular working force and will take out rock on its own account. When the tribuvers quit work a strong ledge of good pay rock was exposed in the south drift of the first level below. the drain tunnel,_and work will be continued in that direction. There continues to be rumors that the Allison Ranch mining property is about to change hands with a view to active operations being resumed. The **Ranch” was a bonanza wine once, and made fortunes for all of its owners, and has other fortunes to yield to those who will go after its hidden treasures. The mine has never , been worked to any great depth, The old Empire mine on Ophir Hill, a quartz mine that: has been worked continuously longer thaa any other in the State, as it commenced yielding well a8 early as 1852, is now turning out very rich specimen rock. This naturally raises the query which has often been made, ‘*Does regular pay chute of a gold bearing lode ever give out?” Judging Ks the Empire it never does. Yesterday morning the little twoyear-old daughter of Diedrich Tietjen wandered away from home, upon finding the yardgate open, and was lost for several hours, but was finally discovered by some school children not far from the Idaho mine. The little one carried a book in her hand in which Mr, Tietjen’s name was inscribed, and by that means it was surmised as to whe were the parents of the youthfui traveler. Decoration Day Proceedings. Captain Rapp’s company will leave here next Wednesday morning at 3 o’clock and proceed in conveyances to Camptonville, where a jointjtarget shoot will be held with Captain Brown’s company.” The visitors wili return home Thursday, probably arriving here about noon. Had our citizens displayed any desire ‘to observe Decoration Day by appropriate ceremonies at the cemeteries, the Light Guard would doubtless have concluded to remain here and participate in the same. Another year, when the season is more forward and flowers are not so scarce as now, perhaps our people will join hands with the boys in blue and follow the good example set by Graves Valley in decorating the graves of the dead.

I have tried it also for other ailments with it far surpassed my expectations.

A San Francisco Lady Drops a Vain-. _ “Battie,” the bright San Francisco ‘correspondent of the Tidings, writes to that paper: The recent publication of compositions on Nevada county, written by applicants for certificates to teach, affordsa prolific subject for thought, The com positions themselves proved how inadequate has been the system of teaching this subject by the, instructors where these applicants have been educated. I presume they were . graduates of the public schools of Nevada county. If so, the faulty construetion. of their sentences, the confused method of expressing their thoughts, aud the evident absence of though? Upon a subject which ought to be familiar with every Nevadacounty pupil, is more of a disgrace to the teachers of those applicants than to tle applicants themselves, . They evidently did the best they knew how, They told all they had been taught about the county, and in as good English as they possessed. Instead of holding them up to ridicule, they should be encouraged to do better for their pupils than their’ teachers have done by them, The fault lies in the system of teaching and the incapacity of teachers, Any devil in a printing office can excel most teachers in composing clear cut sentences, no matter what his education may have been before becoming a type setter. The little unfortunate deaf and dumb children under the charge of Dr, Wilkinson at the Asylum in Berkeley, ranging all the way from ten to fourteen years. of age, will write yon a short essay, upon most any subject, in the best of-English. Children in Kindergarten schools in this city areable to frame correct sentences, punctuate’ properly and speak accurately about the subject matter of their daily lessons. Why can not the pupils of the schools of your county do likewise ? _They are as quick of comprehension and as apt to learn as any children here or elsewhere. Simply because they have not been taught properly. Aud yet, in each of the compositions pubj lished, the writer extolethe school system of .Nevadacounty. The teachers of the schools there are either: inefficient, -or they have. no methods, or very inefficient ones. Probably the fault lies in the system. That ought to be eradicated, and just that kind of work ought to be accomplished at the annual Teachers’ fostitute. That is the purpose of such meetings. If the. teachers of Nevada county will procure a competent instructor at their next annual meeting their pupils will not in future be credited with compositiqns of so little merit. “If the methods by which the printer, the deaf and dumb and the kindergarten pupils become easy and graceful writers could be-pursued for one year in your schools, a marked improvement would iminediately follow. The foundation mnst be laid in* the primary grades and _ followed up throughout the course. Then.no pupil will be guilty of perpetrating the misstatement that ‘‘a lone tree on a high boulder represents true manliness.” He will make it two boulders, at least, JANAUSCHEK. Mer Great Suceess Before a Large ‘ Reno Audience. The Reno Gazette of Wednesday says this of the play which will be produced in Nevada City next Mouday evening: Janauschek, whose rank in the profession has long since won cordial recognition in both Europe and America, presented thie beautiful drama of ‘*Mary Stuart” at the Theatre last evening. The dress circle and gallery were crowded, and from the time the curtain rose to the end of the last act the large audience was held entranced. In the second act, where the unhappy Mary is subjected to the insults and taunts of Elizabeth, the cold-blooded Queen of England, is the most effective situation, and affords a graad opportunity for Madame Janauschek to display her wonderful powers, Her acting in the scene where Mary, Queen of Scots, denounces Elizabeth -as.a bastard, and declares herself the Queen of England, is thrillingly grand. The closing scenes were managed by Janauschek with the care one expects at her bands. Her support is notas good as she should have, but taking the stock as a whole they are far above the average. It ‘. was areal treat, after we have had so much amusement lately of a light character, to have the pleasure of witnessing sucha genuine dramatic event, é ‘ Seti A Narrow Escape.

Points of Interest Gleaned from Yesterday's “Dalene” The tribute contracts in the Hartrey mine havingexpired, the owners has put on a regular working force and will take out rock on its own account. When the tribuvers quit work a strong ledge of good pay rock was exposed in the south drift of the first level below. the drain tunnel,_and work will be continued in that direction. There continues to be rumors that the Allison Ranch mining property is about to change hands with a view to active operations being resumed. The **Ranch” was a bonanza wine once, and made fortunes for all of its owners, and has other fortunes to yield to those who will go after its hidden treasures. The mine has never , been worked to any great depth, The old Empire mine on Ophir Hill, a quartz mine that: has been worked continuously longer thaa any other in the State, as it commenced yielding well a8 early as 1852, is now turning out very rich specimen rock.

This naturally raises the query which has often been made, ‘*Does regular pay chute of a gold bearing lode ever give out?” Judging Ks the Empire it never does. Yesterday morning the little twoyear-old daughter of Diedrich Tietjen wandered away from home, upon finding the yardgate open, and was lost for several hours, but was finally discovered by some school children not far from the Idaho mine. The little one carried a book in her hand in which Mr, Tietjen’s name was inscribed, and by that means it was surmised as to whe were the parents of the youthfui traveler. Decoration Day Proceedings. Captain Rapp’s company will leave here next Wednesday morning at 3 o’clock and proceed in conveyances to Camptonville, where a jointjtarget shoot will be held with Captain Brown’s company.” The visitors wili return home Thursday, probably arriving here about noon. Had our citizens displayed any desire ‘to observe Decoration Day by appropriate ceremonies at the cemeteries, the Light Guard would doubtless have concluded to remain here and participate in the same. Another year, when the season is more forward and flowers are not so scarce as now, perhaps our people will join hands with the boys in blue and follow the good example set by Graves Valley in decorating the graves of the dead.
