THE oop OFFIC OF: OP if — tag, ON’ SNOWSHOES. What a Commercial Traveler Saw Above Here In the Way of — Racing. ASueramento commercial traveler writing from Johnaville, Plumas county, givesthe Record-Union the following account of snowshoe racing up north: During my stay at-La Porte, Plumas county, [ had occasion: to witness the snowshoe races, and I think it worth while to write about it. The four, mining towns, La Port, Gibsonville, Howland Flat and Port-wine, hold every year a series of snowshoe races, and there is just as much excitement and betting ther® as at a horse race below. Tt-is-heldtohea great honor. for 8 town ifone of its ruhnerscomes out victorious in one of the races, and the lucky wiftneris the object of considerable praise and admiration. Each town furnishes more or less contestants and the are for Anas from $75 to. $150. The snowshoes used for running differ fromthe common traveling shoe in length and finish. The bottom of the race-shoe is of the finest workmanship, and is very smooth and hard finished. The race shoe’s length is twelve to fifteen feet, its width three anda half tofour inches. One end is turned up from four to six inches, and the foot stands ida strap four inches wide, which just fits over the foot in the middle of the shoe. To makethe shoe go fast itis necessary to put a preparation ‘called “dope” onthe bottom. Dope is composed of different chemicals and drngs, sperm oil being the most important. There is dope for dry, dope for wet, for hard and soft snow. Each town, asa general thing, is the owner of a good recipe for making good racedope, and guar's it carefully against outsiders. A good recipe for dope, or akind of dope ,which won previous races, is worth its weight in gold, and some men up here spend considerable time and money. making dope. The dope is rubbed on the bottom of the shoe and makes it as slick as ice, The place where the races af T.a Porte came off is a steep hill, and the-course measures 1,470 feet. The grade is-an angle of forty degrees, and is the best and fastest track in thecircuit. All race-tracka are on a hill; the runners go down-hill and the longer and steeper the hill the faster the speed. Four men start together, twelve feet apart. They compose a squad, and the winners of each squad form a new squad till finally the two remaining-ran--the “saw-off” or the finish race. At the sound of the drum the runners start; the one crossing the line at the bottom of the hill first isthe winner. Several judges, time-keeper and starters look after the proper run of things, while a referee is appointed to decide in case . of any difficulty. At the opening day’s race there were twenty-five starters. It wasfora purse of $100. Tom Costello of Gibsonville, a fine built young fellow, won it. Time was 23 seconds for. 1,470 feet. His opponent came in one-half second behind him. The race for the entrance purse was captured by W. G. Koster of Gibsonville, and thus Gibsonville dope was king forthe first ay. ‘ The second day’s races were a little faster; and there was more betting and excitement than on the first. Ten started for the purse, W. Ryan of Gibsonville, coring out ahead; time, 21 seconds. W. Hillman, of La Porte, won the entrance money, Time 21 seconds. It seems that, Gibsonville 1s . lahead in making dope, as every race her boys are in she wins one or more purses. Men bave no idea how fast these runners go, unless they see them. It is more like flying, and the Lord help the runner who gets nervous and falls for it will kill him. Whan the signal for the start is given, the runners use a pole—a stick about four feet long, to push-themselves for about forty feet, then they bend or sit down so as Mo give the air as little resistance as ible, hold their breath and, like a bullet, they whiz down the hill. After crossing the line they sit or ride their poles, beari eavily on them so as to check their speeds. Two races are run each day, aiace for a_puree and the race for the entrance money, a8 each runner pays $2 entrance mohey. The races commence at 1 Pr. m. and hast till 5Band 6r.m. People for twenty-five races. The miners lay off for the occasion and everybody enjoys a holiday. All come on snowshoes, and just as many ladies and children as men are onthe ground. Sometimes there is also @ ladies’ and children’s race. Each town has some good runners, and it is notthe runner on whom the betting and in whose honor the cheering is done, it is the town he represents or whose dope he uses. Of course, you can also finda man bebind a rough pine board bat with a few bottles and cigerson, where you can take # drink and discuss the merits of the dope. A good many drinks are taken and s good many dollars are spent on these days. The hotels are crowded, gambling is going on in the saloons, and you can hear the rattle of money. on the green tables all night. Scores of hardOf . working miners come from their digings in the backwoods with their pockets full of money, get rid of it at the green table and return home broke, dance in the evening, and the winners of the races are the heroes of the day. e miles around come and witness the} , {to return tonext year's races and do iar . it over again. ‘There is also # social they can afford to putup a purse, as they reap a golden harvest on the evetting of the races. The race season is during March, and each town holds its racés on a Friday and Saturday; one week one town, next ‘week the other, and so on, but all take part in every race. eS I am told that the races are no more what they used to be in the good old times, when races for purses from $1000 to $5000 were a common thing, The fastest time on record was made in 1881, when, at the Gibsonville racetrack, 1,320 feet was madein 14 seconds, which is almost sixty-five miles an hour. Accidents are very rare, a8 the runners are all experienced snowshoers and practice for weeks ahead. THE CALPORNLA. Rich Ore at That Mine—Machin__ory-tohe Erected During © _the Coming Summer. The famous old California mine of this district, in years gone by one of the leading quartz properties of the county, isagain coming to the front and bids fair to surpass its earlier record as a gold producer. For some time past George G. Allan, the owner, has been industriously engaged in prospecting it, and hus of late had twelve companies of tributers: working there with good results. -A.clean-up of the twenty-fivetons of ore crushed at Mr. Allan’s mill on the Nevada County mine was made Friday _and $774,30 in free gold was realized. This‘with the sulphurets obtained will bring the average yield of the ore upto two ounces a ton. ‘ This ore comes from a back ledge parallel to the one worked by the formerowners. The ledge was opened on by a crosscut yearsago, butthe impression was obtained that it was “hungry” and it was not worked, Mr. Allan will erect hoisting and pumping machinery on ‘the claim this season and proceed to work the claim on an extensive scale. The Washington Stage Starts. . Beginning Saturday Con. Grissell will resume running his stage line between this city and Washington, after having been shut out by the snow for more than threemonths. He will use wagons from here to the line of the deep snow on the ridge, also from the top of the South Yuba grade down to Washington. Through the snowbelt he will use narrow sleds drawn by horses hitched tandem. “Passengers, mail and express will be’transported. The stage will leave this city at4 o'clock A, M.

Eprron Transcamt:—The March winds are moaning among the pines, the light new fallen snow is drifting about as if seeking some spot. of mother earth not yet covered with the chilling counterpane of a rigorous winter. The winter snow still reaches up to the second story windows, or nearly so. The night is beautiful with the bright stars shining in heaven’s blue ether, while pale Luna casts her mystic light o’er all. ‘I pity the poor soul thatcan view such grandeur unmoved. It is pleasaat coming indoors and sitting down by a glowing fire, and reading the Transcript, learning what our neighboring towns ace doing, reading the sketches of ‘‘California’s time-honored chivalry,’’ our pioneers. While it is pleasant to read, it should also be pleasant to contribute our mite to the general fund. Eyeanow while penning these few lines, many a Nevada county pioneer is sitting by his glowing fire in his cabin among thepines, with memory fondly dwelling o’er days gone by. What a tredsure many. of their contributions would be, And many ‘will be much interested in Mr. Weare’s pioneer sketches. Where once stood the town of Eureka, that Mr. Weare mentions, is now grown over-and has been for many years with chapparal, not evenj a log cabin: remaining. ‘This Mr. Booth tells me. Mr, Booth and Mr: Gara—are the only two pioneexs remaining. ~Eureka is now built on a divide west ofthe former—tlocationMost of the delegation returned to Névada City, writes Mr. Weare, but two are there now, father and sou. Yes, they are here with us, aud here they will remain for ever among Sierra’s sighing pines. Many a_ gallant comrade sleeps; o’er many an unknown grave loving spirits vigil keep. My hardy miner friends of old, you could not today find the grave’ of your companions. All has been chan_ed, the ground sluiced. The hydraulic pipe, the Chinaman with his rocker, ali have taken their turn in tearing and washing off the flat where lie your friends. A deep ground sluice runs alongside of the grave, and its gradual weating away of the sides has exposed bits of the decayed coffin and blanket. About twelve years ago, a man named Lopez sold the flat. wherefather and son were buried to a party of Chinamen. Lopez knew where the grave was, but did not tell the Chinamen, orthey would not have purchased the ground. The Chinamen built their tents quite close to the grave, and went to work cleaning over the old bed rock and working off patches of new ground. ~ I was living at Rocky Glen at the time and in going to Eureka passed close by the diggings every day or two, watching the Chinamen did not disturb the grave. While passing I-saw two of them had commericed to shovel off the little mound of ‘new dirt’’ and were within a few inches of the remains. Going over to where they were working I asked one of the Chinamen where boss man? Me boss man, what you want? Good diggings, John? No sabe, you likee buy? No I said, but you must not work off this piece. of ground. In a moment they were .all chattering, seven or eight of them, and were quite angry. What for, you no likee me work? What for you talk me? Me buy. “Me pay hundred dollar cash. You l.kkee me go way? You likee work? NoJohn,me no likee work, One hundred dollar. Menolike work, John. Saying this I stepped into the ground gluice_ and unmoving a few handfulls of earth, I exposed some partially decayed woolen blanket and boards. What you call him? asked the Chinaman. Itold him. Youshouid ‘have seen those Chinamen, who had now all gathered around me. I cannot describe their faces. The boss took me by the hand saying, Thankee you vely much, good man, Chinaman no sabe dead; stop, no more workee: to-morrow clean-up, one hundred or five hundred dollar, me no. work here. They were as good as their word. A day or two after they leit. And your old friends, father and son, now covered. with a mantle of snow, are with us yet. And lying near them is one of the grandest sugar pins trees that ever adorned the Sierras, Remorseless fate is sweeping away the giants of the forest. Grim time is gathering in California’s generous pioneers, And strong blushing March is being soothed te calm slumber-in the lap of tearful and smiling April. GLEANER. .

THE oop OFFIC OF: OP if — tag, ON’ SNOWSHOES. What a Commercial Traveler Saw Above Here In the Way of — Racing. ASueramento commercial traveler writing from Johnaville, Plumas county, givesthe Record-Union the following account of snowshoe racing up north: During my stay at-La Porte, Plumas county, [ had occasion: to witness the snowshoe races, and I think it worth while to write about it. The four, mining towns, La Port, Gibsonville, Howland Flat and Port-wine, hold every year a series of snowshoe races, and there is just as much excitement and betting ther® as at a horse race below. Tt-is-heldtohea great honor. for 8 town ifone of its ruhnerscomes out victorious in one of the races, and the lucky wiftneris the object of considerable praise and admiration. Each town furnishes more or less contestants and the are for Anas from $75 to. $150. The snowshoes used for running differ fromthe common traveling shoe in length and finish. The bottom of the race-shoe is of the finest workmanship, and is very smooth and hard finished. The race shoe’s length is twelve to fifteen feet, its width three anda half tofour inches. One end is turned up from four to six inches, and the foot stands ida strap four inches wide, which just fits over the foot in the middle of the shoe. To makethe shoe go fast itis necessary to put a preparation ‘called “dope” onthe bottom. Dope is composed of different chemicals and drngs, sperm oil being the most important. There is dope for dry, dope for wet, for hard and soft snow. Each town, asa general thing, is the owner of a good recipe for making good racedope, and guar's it carefully against outsiders. A good recipe for dope, or akind of dope ,which won previous races, is worth its weight in gold, and some men up here spend considerable time and money. making dope. The dope is rubbed on the bottom of the shoe and makes it as slick as ice, The place where the races af T.a Porte came off is a steep hill, and the-course measures 1,470 feet. The grade is-an angle of forty degrees, and is the best and fastest track in thecircuit. All race-tracka are on a hill; the runners go down-hill and the longer and steeper the hill the faster the speed. Four men start together, twelve feet apart. They compose a squad, and the winners of each squad form a new squad till finally the two remaining-ran--the “saw-off” or the finish race. At the sound of the drum the runners start; the one crossing the line at the bottom of the hill first isthe winner. Several judges, time-keeper and starters look after the proper run of things, while a referee is appointed to decide in case . of any difficulty. At the opening day’s race there were twenty-five starters. It wasfora purse of $100. Tom Costello of Gibsonville, a fine built young fellow, won it. Time was 23 seconds for. 1,470 feet. His opponent came in one-half second behind him. The race for the entrance purse was captured by W. G. Koster of Gibsonville, and thus Gibsonville dope was king forthe first ay. ‘ The second day’s races were a little faster; and there was more betting and excitement than on the first. Ten started for the purse, W. Ryan of Gibsonville, coring out ahead; time, 21 seconds. W. Hillman, of La Porte, won the entrance money, Time 21 seconds. It seems that, Gibsonville 1s . lahead in making dope, as every race her boys are in she wins one or more purses. Men bave no idea how fast these runners go, unless they see them. It is more like flying, and the Lord help the runner who gets nervous and falls for it will kill him. Whan the signal for the start is given, the runners use a pole—a stick about four feet long, to push-themselves for about forty feet, then they bend or sit down so as Mo give the air as little resistance as ible, hold their breath and, like a bullet, they whiz down the hill. After crossing the line they sit or ride their poles, beari eavily on them so as to check their speeds. Two races are run each day, aiace for a_puree and the race for the entrance money, a8 each runner pays $2 entrance mohey. The races commence at 1 Pr. m. and hast till 5Band 6r.m. People for twenty-five races. The miners lay off for the occasion and everybody enjoys a holiday. All come on snowshoes, and just as many ladies and children as men are onthe ground. Sometimes there is also @ ladies’ and children’s race. Each town has some good runners, and it is notthe runner on whom the betting and in whose honor the cheering is done, it is the town he represents or whose dope he uses. Of course, you can also finda man bebind a rough pine board bat with a few bottles and cigerson, where you can take # drink and discuss the merits of the dope. A good many drinks are taken and s good many dollars are spent on these days. The hotels are crowded, gambling is going on in the saloons, and you can hear the rattle of money. on the green tables all night. Scores of hardOf . working miners come from their digings in the backwoods with their pockets full of money, get rid of it at the green table and return home broke, dance in the evening, and the winners of the races are the heroes of the day. e miles around come and witness the} , {to return tonext year's races and do iar . it over again. ‘There is also # social they can afford to putup a purse, as they reap a golden harvest on the evetting of the races. The race season is during March, and each town holds its racés on a Friday and Saturday; one week one town, next ‘week the other, and so on, but all take part in every race. eS I am told that the races are no more what they used to be in the good old times, when races for purses from $1000 to $5000 were a common thing, The fastest time on record was made in 1881, when, at the Gibsonville racetrack, 1,320 feet was madein 14 seconds, which is almost sixty-five miles an hour. Accidents are very rare, a8 the runners are all experienced snowshoers and practice for weeks ahead. THE CALPORNLA. Rich Ore at That Mine—Machin__ory-tohe Erected During © _the Coming Summer. The famous old California mine of this district, in years gone by one of the leading quartz properties of the county, isagain coming to the front and bids fair to surpass its earlier record as a gold producer. For some time past George G. Allan, the owner, has been industriously engaged in prospecting it, and hus of late had twelve companies of tributers: working there with good results. -A.clean-up of the twenty-fivetons of ore crushed at Mr. Allan’s mill on the Nevada County mine was made Friday _and $774,30 in free gold was realized. This‘with the sulphurets obtained will bring the average yield of the ore upto two ounces a ton. ‘ This ore comes from a back ledge parallel to the one worked by the formerowners. The ledge was opened on by a crosscut yearsago, butthe impression was obtained that it was “hungry” and it was not worked, Mr. Allan will erect hoisting and pumping machinery on ‘the claim this season and proceed to work the claim on an extensive scale. The Washington Stage Starts. . Beginning Saturday Con. Grissell will resume running his stage line between this city and Washington, after having been shut out by the snow for more than threemonths. He will use wagons from here to the line of the deep snow on the ridge, also from the top of the South Yuba grade down to Washington.

Eprron Transcamt:—The March winds are moaning among the pines, the light new fallen snow is drifting about as if seeking some spot. of mother earth not yet covered with the chilling counterpane of a rigorous winter. The winter snow still reaches up to the second story windows, or nearly so. The night is beautiful with the bright stars shining in heaven’s blue ether, while pale Luna casts her mystic light o’er all. ‘I pity the poor soul thatcan view such grandeur unmoved. It is pleasaat coming indoors and sitting down by a glowing fire, and reading the Transcript, learning what our neighboring towns ace doing, reading the sketches of ‘‘California’s time-honored chivalry,’’ our pioneers. While it is pleasant to read, it should also be pleasant to contribute our mite to the general fund. Eyeanow while penning these few lines, many a Nevada county pioneer is sitting by his glowing fire in his cabin among thepines, with memory fondly dwelling o’er days gone by. What a tredsure many. of their contributions would be, And many ‘will be much interested in Mr. Weare’s pioneer sketches. Where once stood the town of Eureka, that Mr. Weare mentions, is now grown over-and has been for many years with chapparal, not evenj a log cabin: remaining. ‘This Mr. Booth tells me. Mr, Booth and Mr: Gara—are the only two pioneexs remaining. ~Eureka is now built on a divide west ofthe former—tlocationMost of the delegation returned to Névada City, writes Mr. Weare, but two are there now, father and sou. Yes, they are here with us, aud here they will remain for ever among Sierra’s sighing pines. Many a_ gallant

comrade sleeps; o’er many an unknown grave loving spirits vigil keep. My hardy miner friends of old, you could not today find the grave’ of your companions. All has been chan_ed, the ground sluiced. The hydraulic pipe, the Chinaman with his rocker, ali have taken their turn in tearing and washing off the flat where lie your friends. A deep ground sluice runs alongside of the grave, and its gradual weating away of the sides has exposed bits of the decayed coffin and blanket. About twelve years ago, a man named Lopez sold the flat. wherefather and son were buried to a party of Chinamen. Lopez knew where the grave was, but did not tell the Chinamen, orthey would not have purchased the ground. The Chinamen built their tents quite close to the grave, and went to work cleaning over the old bed rock and working off patches of new ground. ~ I was living at Rocky Glen at the time and in going to Eureka passed close by the diggings every day or two, watching the Chinamen did not disturb the grave. While passing I-saw two of them had commericed to shovel off the little mound of ‘new dirt’’ and were within a few inches of the remains. Going over to where they were working I asked one of the Chinamen where boss man? Me boss man, what you want? Good diggings, John? No sabe, you likee buy? No I said, but you must not work off this piece. of ground. In a moment they were .all chattering, seven or eight of them, and were quite angry. What for, you no likee me work? What for you talk me? Me buy. “Me pay hundred dollar cash. You l.kkee me go way? You likee work? NoJohn,me no likee work, One hundred dollar. Menolike work, John. Saying this I stepped into the ground gluice_ and unmoving a few handfulls of earth, I exposed some partially decayed woolen blanket and boards. What you call him? asked the Chinaman. Itold him. Youshouid ‘have seen those Chinamen, who had now all gathered around me. I cannot describe their faces. The boss took me by the hand saying, Thankee you vely much, good man, Chinaman no sabe dead; stop, no more workee: to-morrow clean-up, one hundred or five hundred dollar, me no. work here. They were as good as their word. A day or two after they leit. And your old friends, father and son, now covered. with a mantle of snow, are with us yet. And lying near them is one of the grandest sugar pins trees that ever adorned the Sierras, Remorseless fate is sweeping away the giants of the forest. Grim time is gathering in California’s generous pioneers, And strong blushing March is being soothed te calm slumber-in the lap of tearful and smiling April. GLEANER. .

The water in the shaft of the mine which has been so troublesome during the winter has been lowered to the 800 level. _ Since the comingin of the fine weather of this week mining men having charge of the prospecting mines that are to be started up in this district this season have been exerting themselves in the matter of making arrangements for starting work.
