RESTRAINING WORKS, We Aré Always Ready Now To Please The Valleyites. During the past twelve years-we have been ready upon the spur of the moment to do or say anything. to the discotnfiture of the valleyites, but now the reverse is our present status, Anything to please our valley friends is our motto since they held out the ‘olive branch.” They (or seme of the valley papers) object to dams being built, but have no objections to a uk works.” After this, in referriug to dams, if we donot forget our selves, we shall say ‘‘ restraining works,’ wisich ithe mountain reader must interpret as“ meaning dams.

Representative Caminetti has. introduced a bill to create a new department, adding one more member to the President’s Cabinet. The object is to develop and take better care of the mining iuterests of the country. This new Governmental division will be known as the Departinent of Mines and Mining,-and the official in charge will be called the Secretary of Mines and Mining. He will have an assistant, and the salaries of both will be the same as those of dhe other secretaries and their assistants. The bill takes the Mining Bureau, including the sale ! of mineral lands and the Geological Survey, from the Interior’ Department, and the . ment, and placea them in the new section of the Government. If the bill passes it will go into effect on Mareh 4, 1893. The World Enriched.

Itis no longer opposed by the valley people, at least until the experiment has been thoroughly tested, and. it is agreed to by the representatives of the miners, or will be officially agreed to in a short time, that this class of mining now being conducted contrary te the injunctions of the courts shall cease until the work of building dams has been sufficiently advanced to hold said debris and keep agreed to by representatives ofthe valley and-also ef the miners, that all shall henceforth work in unity te obtain aid in the shape of an appropriation from ‘the treasury of the United States to build the necessary dams. Kepresentative men, three selected by the miners, Robert MeMurray, Niles Searls and J. B, Hobgon, and the same number to represent thé Valley interest, are Grove L. Johnson, George Ohleyer and James Ferris, who will meet at the National Capitol in a few days and at once: preceed to work with a view of getting the necessary appropriation during the present session of Congress. It ia believed that these gentlemen will veceive the active co-operation of all of the Senators and}Representatives from the Pacitic Coast, and that the work can be commenced the latter part of the present year. There ia then no longer a reason to oppose the building of dams nor to question the advisability of it, because te do so will show had faith on our part-and will do no good, while it may do harm: The dams that are to ‘be built, will, of course, be located by United States engineers sulected for that purpose, proviled there is an appropriation made by ConGress, and the question 0 location is one that concerns Marysville more than any other city in the State. “We are located so near the hills and mines, and the grade is sogreat that much of the heavy material has already reached this far including rocks and stones of considerable size, which accounts for the fact that the channel ef the river dows not now scour out as it did a few years ago. A good substantial rock dam built in the vicinity of Deguerre point Would restrain this heavy material from encroaching on Marysville, and that is the one dam that should be built first, because while it will protect us fn this respect it weuld permit of the working of the Smartsville and Mooney Flat mines, MEANS’ BUSINESS No More Peddling Allowed Without Pay. ing License. A few. days ago we called the attention of the officers to the fact’ that peddlers of goods came te this city almost every week te sell their wares in competition with our merchants without taking out a license. Qn Monday evening last, after
reading the article im the Transcript, no-paper shall have it te say that I do not do my duty. ‘The first peddler 1 get my eyes on who has-not got a license will be snatched bald-headed.” On coming down town yesterday he found out that there was a man here who had just Foe rived from San Francisco and was peddling watches without a license.

Post: The action, or, rather, the fail: ure to act, of the Beard of Supervisors of this city on the request of the Miifers’ Association for a municipal apprepriation to assist in paying the expenses of presenting the case of the miners to Congress was ch ldish and silly in the extreme. The board voted $1000, then amended it to $500, then reconsidered the amendment, and finally wound up by making no appropriation af all, That is a very fair sample of the, way things are done in this city, Here is a proposition which, if it can be carri.d through, would benefit San Francisco by millions of dollars. There must be a great.deal of preliminary work done, and even if the Miners’ Association does not succeed in getting an appropriation at the present session of Congress it will put the matter in train-to be acted upon later, aud yet the Board of Supervisors could not see their way to aiding such an undertaking to the extent of a single dollar, lf it‘had been some sort of a pleasure excursion or junketing trip, . have found the money yhickly enough. Thé committee of the Miners Association will not stay at home on account of the narrow-mindédness of the Board of Supervisors of thia city. Placer county has voted $500 and other counties other sums, and the rest will be made up by subscriptions among private persons. It puts the San Francisco board in a very ridiculous attitule, thongh, to vote an appropriation for such a purpose and then undo its own wok in the next breath. If it were going to say uo, it should have said it in the firs ‘place,”’ There is general indignation in Nevada City over the course pursued by such narrow-minded men as compose the supervisors of San Francisco. They draw our life’s blood out of us and then ery for the carcasa. The bulk of the money taken out of our mines goes to build up the ungrateful city ; vet a little assistance is asked of them by the Minera’ Association to help pour more gold into their coffers, avd thereby help the miners. Instead of doing this, these miserable supervisors turn tail upon us. poy laa cegor acre ier Superior Court. The following business was transactéd in the Superior Court today, Hon.

LONDON THEATFR TOUTS Mow Patrons Are Made Miserable by Cloak, Programme and Other Fieuds, You have scarcely put your nose inride a theater before you are-seized upon and called to stafid and deliver. First it ls your coat. Men and women rush after you and pester you for your coat. They would rejoice if all were foolish enough to yield to their importunate demands, and risk colds; coughs, influenza and . bronchitis for the rest 6f their natural life. Why. it is madness to venture into the stalls without a draft protector. Modern theaters are so constructed that they are mere draft traps. . If you are seated near the door you & stiff neck. You must wrap your cloak kround you and be eareful to protect, your legs from the blasts of wind that! pour in from every crack and canny. If you are in the center of the stalls, at many theaters directly the curtain is raised a tornado of wind rushes across . the footlights and catches you by the throat. I often think that women are mad who venture into theaters with low dresses in winter time. It is bad enough for men. And yet these attendants get quite of. fended if we do not leave behind us the ovly garments that will protect us from sudden death. Remember that no one is free from the theater highwaymen. Even those who go in with orders cannot get out of the cloakroom or prograyinie tux. At last they must pay. -! remember. once going into a» theater with a friend who had a keen sensé of the ludicrous. . think it must have been W. 8. Gilbert: It was a morning performance and hewas attacked in the usual way: “Goat; sir!” * “What do you want with it?” “To take it off." “Very well,” he murmured innocently. The highwayman prepared to strip off hia coat, and behold! my friend, who had prepared for the dodge, walked away in his shirt. sleeves!. He had only put on his overcoat, with nothing un derneath it. Unconcerned he was preparing to enNer-the stalls coatiess, when the attendant rushed after him, “Look here, sir, you must not go into the stalls like that!" : “Why not?" he asked with-a bland and innocent air. “You asked for my coat. You have got it, What more can you want?" The-coat and cloak fiends having been disposed of, you encounter the. second rank of touts. Now itis a programme for which you must pay, They insolently bar your passage. Thoy dun you and din into your ears, ‘Programme, sir!” It is not a civil request to know if you would like a programme or not, but ademand with an implied threat. The implication is that you aro a stingy person, who has no right to be seen: in the stalls, But this is not all. Having gone through the first easy stages of theatrical purgatory, you are worried all the evening with ice sellers atid chocolate vendors and stale cake providers. if you are in the stalls, safely wrapped up from the drafts, these touts edge in between the very. narrow and uncomfortable stalls and generally make hay. They tread on your toes, they disturb the little nest you have made, they make havoc with the ladies’ buck hair, pulling out confiding hairpins and crushing the result of thé maid’s handiwork. They don't care if they dig you in the eye with an ice tray or powder you with the refuse of sponze cake or bury you under chocolate boxes. Their duty is to make as mnch money tor. It is not their fault, poor. things, They all got a commission on their wares und it is their duty to tout.— Clement Scott in London Graphic. A Mistake. These Gurious personalresemblances, which are not uncommon, have given rise to the popular belief that every man has his double somewhere in the world, It appears that the double of a well known professor of-the Rush Medical college is a hairdresser, whose shop is situated in the immediate neighborhood of that institution; and who, well aware of his likeness to the learned doctor, carefully copies the latter in dress, bearing and de:neanor, A few days ago the professor was walking homeward from his lecture room. when a gentleman, enHrely unkinowa-to him, stopped him in tae streot, saying: “Pollow mo jo my hotise, to out my hair.” The winiable professor, one of whose vrinciples of life it hus always been never Oo withhold from a fellow creature any survice that it nit be within his power to.render, meolkly accompanied the stranger home and there addressed himself to the task thus iunperatively prescribed to hin. Lacking professional sclasors, he picked up a pair of shears, used for cuttity paper, from a writing table in the dressing room to which he had been conducted, and with this implement proceeded most conscientiously to cut his victim's hair down to the very roota, When he had cleared about half. the skull-he accidentally stuck the point of his shears into the scalp of his patient, who, springing to-his feet in great pain and wrath, exclaimed: “Can't you twke caré what you're thout? Do yon call yourself a hairdresser?” “A. hairdresser!” returned the astonished sage. ‘Certainly not.
