Particulars ef Her Return. * Eprror Transckipr.—As chapters on horse stealing appear to be in vogue, permit me to offer youone. The fact became notorious through an advertisement in your widely read paper (and this is another indubitable proof of the advantages of advertising) that’ my pet mare, which her full name is ‘Daisy Eugene Rosebud,” Was stolen from her stall on the night following October 6. Now it so happened that a copy of the TRANscRIPT containing the ad. fell into the hands of her captors then in a distant port. While they were reading the advertisement aloud and commenting on it Daisy overheard them, and_ she thought of the kind friends teft behind, of how much she was: missed at home and what a hearty welcome would greet her could she return. Visions of home and barley loomed up to her hungry imagination, and she secretly resolved to escape at the first opportunity. Watching her chance when her ¢aptors were at a little distance, she broke her fastenings and lit out for home. After attaining a safe distance she took it more leisurely, feeding along by the roadside. When she had arrived to within two miles of Nevada City and near Glenbrook, she was espied by several acquaintances who recognized her. Capt. Rapp and Lieut. Farrer, who were regaling themselves with a buggy ride to Grass Valley, John Lawrence and wife who were also on the road with their team, and Capt. Frank Aumer” with shis }drovers and butcher boys all doffed their hats to her at about the same time. Thenthere was a rustle and a scramble for the prize. Capt. Rapp and his Lieutenant, blazing all over with military glory and a prestige of heroism to sustain, were bound to win, and although the party of drover boys were no mean competitors, the brave Captain first had the honor of shaking hands with Daisy, the other contestants graciously bowing and retiring. Then the military heroes, _ instead of allowing her to proceed on her journey tied her to the fence with a strong halter and continued their ride to Grass Valley, plotting fun as they went with the following result: They telegraphed, ‘‘Captured mare at Auburn.’”’ An hour later they arrived with Daisy and a wonderful story of how after ‘a sharp and sanguinary conflict with a desperate band of fleeing horse thieves they captured and brought her off victoriously. This was rather a tough story to swallow, as_ they had left Nevada City only two hours since, but knowing the dual nature of these heroes and their capacity to be at two distant points at the same time, and also having great respect for their prowess, we were forced to believe their wonderful story until further testimony appeared, which soon manifested itself from the recitals of Capt. Aumer and other field of Glenbrook. In conclusion, we remark ‘“‘sub rosa’ that thé officers are looking after the military heroes with a warrant for their arrest for intercepting Daisy on her peaceful promenade homeward over the Boulevard de Glenbrook, and also that they will be held to answer a suit in libel for spreading the false. report that she, Daisy, was found near Auburn in bad company. C. A. Barrer. Nevapa Crry, Oct. 12, 1885. Mammoth Potatoes. Ed. Cummins, of North Bloomfield, sent us last Saturday some potatoes raised on his. slickens ranch, and for size and fineness of quality combined they beat anything we have ever seen in California or anywhere else. One } of them weighs four pounds and a quarter and the other three pounds. We judge that they <are of the ‘‘Peerless’”’ variety.

Mining Journal, which is excellent authority on such things, says that the Cassell process, so . emphatically endorsed by Louis Blanding according to an item in our last issue, is neithes new or practical. The Journal concludes its remarks thus: ‘‘Notwithstanding the prominence given to this new process in the London engineering and mining papers, and the assertions made of wonderful results obtained or obtainable at a-cost of from $1.25 to $2.50 per ton of ore treated, we are inclined to look upon the statement made as requiring confirmation _byhigher and disinterested authority. Mr. Cassell’s record while in this country was not such as to inspire unlimited confidence in hira.’’ Judgment By Default. The members of the Capital Cricket Club have reconsidered the motion about going to Grass Valley next Sunday to play the Unions, and concluded not to finish the series. They. have vanquished their opponents three garhes out of the four played, and have only one more of seven in all to win in order to secure the county championship; but owing to the inability of two or three of their first eleven to take part in any more games they have concluded to relinquish all the advantage they have gained and let the. Grass Valleyans claim the championship by default. Saloon Burglarized. Joe Clark’s saloon in Gehrig’s brewery was burglarized yesterday morning by some one who obtained entrance to the building by forcing open a side door that was not securely’ fastened.

At Chialso on the bedrock,.one Mongolian has a garden of nearly an acre in which he raises large crops of the finest vegetables. The hydraulic mining industry is not the enemy of our agricultural and horticultural interests. They get along most prosperously as neighbors and co-workers. The miner wants the rancher’s product, and the rancher wants the miner’s gold. It’s a fair exchange that is profitable to both sides. On the Up Grade. Some realestate in one of the towns on the ridge that was struck amidships by Sawyer’s injunction on hydraulic mining, and which originally cost between $2,000 and $3,000, was sold a few months ago for $500. The buyer, who took the property on speculation, has just disposed of it for $900. . This indicates that public confidence is being restored in the future of that part of the county.—TRanscriPT.

The Grass Valley Union of Sunday says: George Stephenson, while working in the Laomi mine, had several pieces of steel fly from the drill into his eye, and has suffered much -pain-therefrom for the past two or three days. Yesterday he went to John Perry, who has been very successful in removing foreign bodies from the eyes of miners at the Idaho, and Mr. Perry succeded in taking three pieces of the metal from Stephenson’s right eye. The patient is now all right, and will be at work again in a few days. —_——_—__o<—>o—___— Sunday School Election. Eprror Transcrirt.—At the annual election of the M. E.

Rapp and his Lieutenant, blazing all over with military glory and a prestige of heroism to sustain, were bound to win, and although the party of drover boys were no mean competitors, the brave Captain first had the honor of shaking hands with Daisy, the other contestants graciously bowing and retiring. Then the military heroes, _ instead of allowing her to proceed on her journey tied her to the fence with a strong halter and continued their ride to Grass Valley, plotting fun as they went with the following result: They telegraphed, ‘‘Captured mare at Auburn.’”’ An hour later they arrived with Daisy and a wonderful story of how after ‘a sharp and sanguinary conflict with a desperate band of fleeing horse thieves they captured and brought her off victoriously. This was rather a tough story to swallow, as_ they had left Nevada City only two hours since, but knowing the dual nature of these heroes and their capacity to be at two distant points at the same time, and also having great respect for their prowess, we were forced to believe their wonderful story until further testimony appeared, which soon manifested itself from the recitals of Capt. Aumer and other field of Glenbrook. In conclusion, we remark ‘“‘sub rosa’ that thé officers are looking after the military heroes with a warrant for their arrest for intercepting Daisy on her peaceful promenade homeward over the Boulevard de Glenbrook, and also that they will be held to answer a suit in libel for spreading the false. report that she, Daisy, was found near Auburn in bad company.

Mining Journal, which is excellent authority on such things, says that the Cassell process, so . emphatically endorsed by Louis Blanding according to an item in our last issue, is neithes new or practical. The Journal concludes its remarks thus: ‘‘Notwithstanding the prominence given to this new process in the London engineering and mining papers, and the assertions made of wonderful results obtained or obtainable at a-cost of from $1.25 to $2.50 per ton of ore treated, we are inclined to look upon the statement made as requiring confirmation _byhigher and disinterested authority.

They. have vanquished their opponents three garhes out of the four played, and have only one more of seven in all to win in order to secure the county championship; but owing to the inability of two or three of their first eleven to take part in any more games they have concluded to relinquish all the advantage they have gained and let the. Grass Valleyans claim the championship by default. Saloon Burglarized.

The hydraulic mining industry is not the enemy of our agricultural and horticultural interests. They get along most prosperously as neighbors and co-workers.

Yesterday he went to John Perry, who has been very successful in removing foreign bodies from the eyes of miners at the Idaho, and Mr. Perry succeded in taking three pieces of the metal from Stephenson’s right eye.
