A Scotchman's Answer. Mr. Spurgeon recently told the following anecdote as he gave ~ut the anthem. To appreciate the story, it must be remembered that Scotch Presbyterians, with few exceptions, ‘sing only thé Psalms of David : A high churchman and a Scotch Presbyterian minister had been a’ the same church. ‘The.former asked the latter if he did not like the ‘‘Introits,” He replied, ‘I don’t know what an introit, is.” The difficulty heretofore” éxiatiiig between the City Trustees and: Mr. Lones regarding the former opening a street from Commercial to Pine through the property of the latter has finally been amicably adjusted. The contending parties agreed at a special meeting of the ‘Trustees held Thursday evening that each should select one arbitrator to: set a price on the property, and if they could not agree those two should chonse a third one, Mr. Lones gave bands in the sum of $1,000 to abide the decisign, whatever it might be. The ‘Trustees appointed Geo, “F. Jacobs as their representative, and Mr. Lo-~ nes selected J. H. Hamiltsn. These two met yesterday morning. The former was of the:opinion that. $300 . was a sufiicient price for the, thirty feet of land, while the latter’s figures were $400, They could not agree upon the matter between themselves, and called in N. P. Brown, who co— incided with Mr, Jacobs by apprais— ing the property at $300, which sum was forthwith paid over to Mr. Lones by the city, the transfer was made and the suit in’ the Superior Court dismissed. : Completion of the Danas. 2 Owing to the continuance ol favorable weather, the contractors engaged in constricting the debris dains dams as provided for by the last Legislature, wil complete their labors this week, and everything will be in readiness before the first storms come, We now anxiously await a practical test of the experiment, The Watt Company's Dividend. ood The Watt Blue Gravel Mining Company of this county having sold their prospecting machinery to ‘the ‘Alaska Mining Company of Pike City, Sietra,county, have with the proveede declared a dividend of 7 cents'a share, aggregating $7,000, and ) Payable immediately, bc it 4 Gon, ® * ‘ ° not enjoy the anthem %” He replied, ‘‘No, I did not enjoy. it at all,” ‘ man, “‘kecause it was used in the early church ; in fact, it was originally sung by David.” ‘‘Ah,” said the Scotchman, ‘‘then that explains the Scripcure. I can understand now, if David sung it-at that time, why Saul threw his javelin at him.” This was followed by a loud peal of laughter, when Mr. Spurgeon said, ‘‘Now let us sing the anthem.” Election News. ’ CALIFORNIA. San Francisco, Nov. 5th, 10:30 a. M.—-his mornming’s papers make the vote of this State practically a tie. This change from last night's. report is due less to any turn in report of precincts, than-to the revision of tabulated statements. These differ considerably. There’ are evidences of loose work stifticient to discredit all estimates. Undoubtedly the estimate of two thousgnd last night was too high, and best opinion now .seems to be that Garfield will have a plurality of from 500 to 1,000. x NEVADA, " Virarnta Cres, Nov. 5th, 10:30 a.

A Scotchman's Answer. Mr. Spurgeon recently told the following anecdote as he gave ~ut the anthem. To appreciate the story, it must be remembered that Scotch Presbyterians, with few exceptions, ‘sing only thé Psalms of David : A high churchman and a Scotch Presbyterian minister had been a’ the same church. ‘The.former asked the latter if he did not like the ‘‘Introits,” He replied, ‘I don’t know what an introit, is.” The difficulty heretofore” éxiatiiig between the City Trustees and: Mr. Lones regarding the former opening a street from Commercial to Pine through the property of the latter has finally been amicably adjusted. The contending parties agreed at a special meeting of the ‘Trustees held Thursday evening that each should select one arbitrator to: set a price on the property, and if they could not agree those two should chonse a third one, Mr. Lones gave bands in the sum of $1,000 to abide the decisign, whatever it might be. The ‘Trustees appointed Geo, “F. Jacobs as their representative, and Mr. Lo-~ nes selected J. H. Hamiltsn. These two met yesterday morning. The former was of the:opinion that. $300 . was a sufiicient price for the, thirty feet of land, while the latter’s figures were $400, They could not agree upon the matter between themselves, and called in N. P. Brown, who co— incided with Mr, Jacobs by apprais— ing the property at $300, which sum was forthwith paid over to Mr. Lones by the city, the transfer was made and the suit in’ the Superior Court dismissed. : Completion of the Danas.

I can understand now, if David sung it-at that time, why Saul threw his javelin at him.” This was followed by a loud peal of laughter, when Mr. Spurgeon said, ‘‘Now let us sing the anthem.” Election News. ’ CALIFORNIA. San Francisco, Nov. 5th, 10:30 a. M.—-his mornming’s papers make the vote of this State practically a tie. This change from last night's. report is due less to any turn in report of precincts, than-to the revision of tabulated statements. These differ considerably.
