LOCAL INTELLIGENCE, .
CHINESE CHICKEN THIEF CauGuHT.
Yesterday morning, between 1 and 2
o'clock, John Hieber, hostler at the
Telegraph Stage Co’s stable, succeeded
in eapturing a Chinese chicken thief,
while he was making away with his
booty. The stage being late, John laid
down for a light sleep, and aboulgl
o'clock he awoke and heard a chicken
“squork.” To this he paid no attention, but the “squork” being repeated,
John went to the window, ard after:
taking a glass of lager, hearing a great
“quacking” among the ducks, he con_ eluded somebody was in the hennery.
“On looking out he saw the form of a
man, who was evideftly engaged in
catching chickens. John went out,
taking a station near the fence on the
outside, having first armed himself
with a hatchet. In a moment or two
a Chinaman’s head popped over. and
_ Hieber went after it, catching the Chinaman by the que just ashe was getting overthe fence. In the mean time
the Chinaman had dropped his bag and
all the chickens but two got: out. On
being caught he made a lively resistance, and felt about his belt as if fora
weapon. On looking over the ground
after daylight a sharp hatchét was
found, which had been dropped by the
Chinaman in the attempt to escape,and
which he evidently intended to use.
Hiebert was too strong for him, and the
Chinaman then began begging, saying,
“Me heap poor, no likee steal, let me go,
me:never come again,” but. Hieber
did’nt see it. After locking him securely in the granary, he reported to
-H. L.Dawley, Special Policeman, who
took him in charge, and yesterday filed
a complaint against him for petit larceny. :
TuE I. O. U. Leper—The L. 0. U.
ledge is located on Hitcheock’s Ravine,
ona line with the Pittsburg mine.—
When last worked, the shaft was.sunk.
to the depth of forty feet, and some rock
taken out that paid ashighas $40 to
the ton. The ledge has not been worked for some time, but proposals are now
advertised fora contract te dommence a
new shaftand sink to the depth of 80
feet upon the ledge. After the shaft is
down 100 feet, it is proposed to put uf
pumping and hoisting works upon the
mine. We hope to see the I. 0. U.
come out with any amount of gold to
ite owners. ‘
TRIAL oF Cuas. ''HOMPSON.—This
case in which: Thompson was charged
with attempt to rob a man named
Berry, was on trial before the County
Court yesterday, W. W. Cross, District Attorney, prosecuting and J.C.
Palmer defending. The testimony
showed that. Thompson was)seen by
two witnesses in the rear of a saloon at
Truckee, going through the pockets of
Berry, and afterwards beating him and
demanding “where that silver was.”
Other witnesses testified as to the parties being together previous to the alleged attempt to rob. The defendant
offered no testimony, and after argument the case was submitted to the
jury, who after a short time returned.
& verdict of guilty. :

FurTyER REDUCTION oF Fares.—It’
seems’ that the rivalry existing be
tween Sacramento and San Francisco,
is about to prove a great benefit to the
traveling public. As will ‘be seen by
-the advertisement of the California Pacific Railroad Company, the fare on the
Vallejo route has been reduced to three
dollars. This, in connection with the
shortness of the route, will no doubt attract a proportionate share of the travel.
A reduction has also been made in
second class fare from three to two
dollars,
‘Ciance FoR ConTRactors.— The
10 U Company want proposals to sink
4 shaft on their quartz ledge, which i8
situated near. itchcoci’a, Ravine, in
this township, 80 feet deep perpendicular, and three feet by five feet in the
clear from top to bottom—well timbered. Proposals for doing the work
tq be left with J. I. Caldwell, Esq., befofe.8 o'clock p.m. of Friday next.
A

Christian Association wag crowded, at

Weisenberger and Dick Farquhar, and
several solos and choruses were sung by
the glee club, after which the following
question was debated: Resolved, That
the State Legislature should assume
the indebtedness of bankrupt counties.
The affirmative was taken by R. Stuart,
J.B. Drummond and J. C. Palmer, and
the negative by J.B, Johnson and M.
5. Deal. .The Chairman, on the merits
of the argument, decided in the negative. The following programine was
then announced for the meetiug on
next Monday night: 1st, music, solo

ANOTHER ACCIDENT.—The up bound
train on the Western Pacific Railroad
ran off the track at San Leandro Junction,a few miles west of where the acci‘dent occurred a week ago Sunday. At
this point the Western Pacific connects
with the Alameda road, and it is sup
posed that the switch was left open.
‘ express and baggage car after it, plowing up the track for some distance;.and
at last upsetting. The fireman was
badly injured. Noneof the passenger
cars were thrown off, but the accident
occasioned a delay of about six hours,
and*the mailjs, as a consequence, did
not reach this city until midnight.
We obtain these facts from T. C. Lampe,
who was a passenger on the train.

self, (the only firm who sell the genuine Cape Ann Oiled Rubber Goods)
proves to. the public the truth of our
assertions, and of the falsehoods of our
opponents, from the beginning to the
end of this discussion. Well may they
say BANNER BROTHERS are spitting
fire. They have made it so-hot for the
Clothing Dealers in this city as to scat,’
ter them all over the State and even
some take to the mountains to cool off
from whence they have no desire to return. They well know how perseveringly the BANNER BROTHERS keep
the Clothing War a-going and intend
to continue to make it hot for anybody
who try to oppose them “if it takes all
Summer.” Our competitors seem to
forget that they first used slanderous
language, uatreths and misrepresentations regarding our Agency. ‘To correct these falsehoods we used such language as the statements of our opponents deserved. BANNER “BROS.,
alone, are the ONLY AGENTS for the
Cape Ann Oiled Rubber Goods for this
City and County. We: will state, for
the benefit of all “to whom it may concern,” that we have a letter trom Mr.
C. Sutton, Jr. stating that the ten Coats
. Our opponents blew so much about, for
which they have a bill, were surreptitiously obtained and that hereafter he
will be on the look out. We have no
respect for our competitors. They en.
deavored by slander, falsehood and
trickery to mislead the public with
whom they must have lost all confidence. ue

A Household Elixir adapted to all
Climates,
It would be a happy thing for the world if
all the excitants at present used in the practice of medicine, could be swept out of existence, and HOSTETTER’S*8TOMACH BITTERS substituted in their place. In California it seems possible that this desirable sub
stitution may one day be accomplished. Certain.it is, that the GREAT VEGETABLE TONIC is
gradually displacing them, and that the confidence of the people in its eanitary and saving
properties, increases with every passing year.
‘Figures that ean not lie,” show this to be
the fact. No medicinal preparation émjoys the
like popularity ‘among all classes and condi,
tions, in every sectionof the State. As an
appetizer, a-general invigorant, a remedy forindigestion, a cure for intermittent and remittent fevers, a gentle cathartic, a specific
for flatulency and sour stemach, a gentle diuretic, a nervine, a blood depurent, a specific
for sick headache, a mild anodyne, and, above
all, a8 A PROTECTION AGAINST EPIDEMICS, it is
unquestionably the STANDARD MEDICINE of the
whole Pacific territory. In the towns and
cities it is literally a HOUSEHGLD STAPLE,
Mothers believe in it. They find ita “present
help in time of troubie,’’—a safe and pleasant
remedy for the various ailments to which they
are exclusively subject. -Men_ believe in. it,
because: it refreshes and invigorates the body
and the mind, and tones both without exciting
either. .
