ON THE STOCK BOARD.
A Grass Valley Company Makes Application to
Be Listed. ~
Tn the San Francisco Call of Wednesday
we find the following:
The South Idaho Mining Company of
Grass Valley has applied to be placed on
the list of the San Francisco Stock Exchange. This is one of the most promising
mines in Nevada county and is on the same
ledge as the Idaho, which has paid so many
thillions of dollars in dividends. A very
important strike.was.made°in’ the mine a
‘few weeks ago, over $5,000 being taken out
in one piece of rock. :

tired‘ feeling or sick headache? You can be

Our Climate.
People who have lived in Nevada county
a long time are apt to forget that we have
about the finest climate in the world. The
altitudes and the surroundings of the towns
of Nevada City and Grass Valley render
‘this section particularly desirable at all
seasons. _ In the extreme lower. portion of
the county the winter season is'remarkably
mild, but the Summer weather is quite
hot, while in the uppermost portions of” thé
county the winters aré very severe and the
summers as mild and balmy as the early
springtime. in the lower portions. -Residents
of the county.who.go eleewhere ueon~notice
the difference in climate and can then appreciate the advantage we possess in this
respect. Hon. J. M.~Walling, who has
gon, says from the time he left the county
until he got back the weather was miserable. From San Francisco te Oregon aud
during hia stay in the latter place he says
he thought he would freeze te death, and he
longed for the pleasant sunshine and soft
breezes of Nevada county:
Tuterésting Sparring Contest. —

Ther’ was a large audience at the Nevada
City Athletic Club's gymaosiam lastnight} ~
to witness the four-round ‘boxing contest
between J, Jefford,°the Montana wonder,
and James Brannigan, boxing instructor of
the club, It was an exciting and very interesting display of scientific boxing, with
honors about evenly divided. Jefford
weighs 190 pounds and stands 6 feet 114
inches, aud bas a reach as great as Peter
Jackson, . He is a perfect specimen ef manhood, James Brannigan weighs 160 pounds
and is 5 feet 10 inches, He is a well-developed young man and a very quick, easy
sparrer. J. McClure attended to the wants
of Jetford, while Professor Hartman waited
on Brannigan. The club will give a series
vf © gentlemen nights’ this winter, when
nothing but-sparring and wrestling will take
place.

THE HOME MINE.
—
The Preseat Owners Intend to Open the Prop.
erly ona Big Scale,
——
Yesterday morning Charles Stepp and
Johan Fischer, of San Francisco, two of the
Jargest owners in the Home quartz mine,
arrived in this city for the purpose of completing arrangements to work the mine on
as large a scale as it is possible to do,
Stephen Moore, a first-class quartz miter,
is in charge of the inine, Men are now
rushing the preliminary work, and the
gtading and foundation for the new hoisting
works is about completed and the building
-will be erected immediately. It is.the intention of the new company te put on all
the men that can be worked to advantage,
right from the start, increasing the force as
room is made for more men, and we would
not be surprised to learn within sixty or
ninety days that they have a big crew of
men employed there,
The Home is considered a good mine by
those who are posted regarding the work
that was done there many years ago. It is
situated on’ Deer creek, just below the
Champion mine, but the hoisting works are
to be erected on the opposite side of the
creek, below the Providence. Years: ago
this rine was owned by Thomas Findley,
the Grass Valley banker, Some very fine
rock was taken out, equalling in richness
any of the quartz ever found in the Nevada
City mine: Findley had other business to
occupy his. attention in those days, and
after working the mine awhile he suspended
Operations. The property finally passed into
other hands and has never been worked
since. It is now in the hands of just the
right kind of mem that. are most desirable
in this district. They believe in working
the mine on a big scale, and have the coin
te carry out their plans. There is hardly a
doubt that they have a good -property and
that when properly developed it will prove
te be one of the best-paying mines in the
district and will ‘add. to the prosperity of
our'town aswell aa to the purses of its
owners, ‘

A BIG FIRE.
—
Hundreds of Acres of Timber-land Destroyed
During the Past Few Days:
For some days past the clouds of smoke
that have risen at the eastward indicated
that forest fires were doing a great deal of
damage in that direction, From Henry
Fuchs, who was on the acene of the hre last
hight, aays the Tidings, and helped to fight
the flames, we learn the following particulars, The fire is a continuation of the fire
that swept across the Narrow G uage railroad at Melarkey crossing and a part of the
White ranch, about a week ago. The fire
proceeded gradually across tracts of land
belonging toa number of different parties,
and then swept over about 1300 acres of tim:
ber land belonging to M. Manion. It. then
passed to the property known as the Fuchs
ranch—now owned by Geo. M. Mott and
other Sacramento men. It was raging
fiercely on this place last night, and twenty
men were engaged in fighting the flames, At
this ranch there were $26 cords of oak wood,
which the fire threatened to destroy ad
which the flames may have reached by this
time, .
In the neighborhood of Hunt's Hill, a
score or more of Chinamen are engaged in
fighting the fire.
Mr. Fuchs says the fire extended from
Little Greenhorn to Big Greenhorn, It has
burned in a zig-zag course a territory, some
five or six miles in length, and is still progressing,

that the woods are full of men prospecting
for gold bearing quartz in the vicinity of
Forbestown, New York Flat and all, along
that range. The splendid quality of. quartz
in the mines that are now being worked in
that vicinity, and the certainty of its proving profitable, has caused the stir in_ devel.
opment which is quite certain to bring into
the. field two or more quartz mills this
season.
The mines now operating at Forbestown,

is said there are uearly as many more enmines that were abandoned years ago are
