"Frank Taylor’s pack-train consisting .,°of eight mules and three horses ar“yived here Tuesday evening bringing « ton of potatoes, butter and sugar from Colfax and having been over nine hours on the road. F. E. Mennel was the owner of the goods and he brought them over on a speculation. He’ held . fresh butter at 35 cents a pound and keg butter at 30. For potatoes he wanted 4cents a pound. He found sale for what be had. It was his ip. tention to take back. to Colfax what bagguge he could get for parties going below. Itis the first:time in many years that a pack train has been used for bringing goods into this city. The Taylor train istheone that rnns regularly. between Colfax and Iowa Hill. The jury in the case of Robert J, Lee, the man tried for-assault-to—commit murder in having-slashed Robert Simmons with a razor, retired at 6:28 Tuesday evening. On the first ballot they all voted against finding a verdict according to the-charge. On the-qu2stion_as_to-whether he was guilty of assault with adeadly weapon with intent to do great bodily harm they at first stood 3 for conviction and 9 for acquittal. Later the vote was 6 “and 6. -At2o’clock a. M,.a compromise verdict of guilty ofan assault was returned, Next Friday is the time set for passing sentence: The penalty isa fine not to exceed $500 or imprisonment in the cotinty jail not to exceed three months, or both, A OiimateHunter's Luck. — . The woodshed connected with the bakery of D. W. Keller was broken down Wednesday afternoon by the snow. Mr., Keller is a. tenderfoot, He came recently from blizzard-blasted Kansas to revel in the glorious climate «:f California, and he feels that he can now fully appreciate the old saying about jumping from the frying pan into the fire, He will not believe that the present winter isnot a fair specimen of the average quality.

The ‘swing passenger train due at Colfax from Sacramento. Tuesday had three engines and a snowplow on. Neverthéless it got stuck in the cat just below Colfax and had to be doy out, On the same day a German ehoveling snow there was struck inthe back bya snowplow cg died an hour later, m ¥e the wnac Giclee 2: About a year ago so English scientist asserted that there was no such “thing as an orihodox hell, but that the people would eventually be snowed in and frozen to death and that would be the end of them.’ If there ig not a cessation _in the. preseht storm ‘soon the people will begin to think’ his head was level. And Still It Snows. The Weather Clerk is off his base At daylight Wednesday. morning it recommenced storming after having rested since Monday: morning. At first there was a mixture of sleet, rain and snow; butia little later moist snow began and wept coming all day. A high southeast wind helped things along, Live Stock Milled.

When the blockade is raised on the railroad there will be a big business done by the company. The almanac says the rest of this month anda good part of February will be snowy and cold. The Western Union telegraph wires were not working Wednesday between The Grase Valley stores are out of shovels, The-Nevada Ci.y hardware stores have pleuty-of them at regular prices, The body ofthe late~ Benjamin Bynon was taken to Birchville Wednesday. The burial is to tuke place at San Juan, — . Tn a day or two a large force of. men will be employed in shoveling snow off the railroad track between this city and Grase Valley, The people residing along the San Juan Ridge had not till Wednesday seen a San Francisco paper since a week ago last Saturday. Upto last Saturday only enough . snow had fallen at French Corral to cover the ground. On Sunday a_ biy rain storm came and washed it away. -_Dave Housell, Wm. Godair, Henry Housell and P, Ozalla were three day: . i getting to town from Cement Hill; « distance of three miles. They used horses in bieaking the trail. According to the Indian legend there was in the year of 1842 a snowstorm similur tothe present one, and when the thaw came the Sacramento Valley became a vast inland sea. Thereiis five and ‘a half feet of snow at the. town of Washington, Con, Grissell, who is one of the pioneer residents there, says he never before knew: itto be more than two and a_half feet deep. Herman Uphoff has had to close his saloon in the -basemont “of the Crase building at Grass Valley,’as the walls were so badly. shaken by-the fall-ef the roof that the structure is liable to keai over at any time. The Grass Valley Tidings says: Families securing their water from Rube Thomas’ system of pipes are regarding themselves as in luck, The supply is adeq ate. The Transcript receives only about twenty exchanges daily: when everythingigrunningsmoothly. But when they gethung up on the road for eight or ten days and all come swoopihy . down in a bunch they miuke life a burden, Local weather sharps who laughed Tuesday at the Transcy.T propliet because he insisted the snowstorm was not.over but wou:d renew hostilibies soon are now like the historical boy who.had nothing to say on.acertain embarrassing occasion. Joe Beggs says the sleighing all the way from this city to Camptonyille is prime. He takes the Ou's Tree Ranch roid between Wells’ and San Juan. Old settlers say this is the first winter they remember when ‘a sleigh 4eould-be used the entire distance for more than a day at a time. Anarticle is going the rounds of the press, stating that the game of hearts, played with cards, has been introduc: ed into high c ciety and bids fair to be as popular as progressive euchre wasafew years ago. It is nothing more than the old game called ‘‘Qold Torkey.”’. The rules are. the samo; SS There igmore money in circulation jhere now than for sometime previous to thestorm. Onething thathelps to muke the difference is perhaps the fact that the blockade prevents people from sending to Sacrament» and an Fran” cisco for dry goods, furniture, groceries 2d job printing. The money is ? snowed in with them, as it were. The Golden West, the N. 8. G.

She tried one of the mineral sarsaparillas only to find . that it gave her pains in the head and weak sinking spells. Having taken Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla myself with t benefit in stomach troubles, I induced her to discard ‘the potash preparation and try your Vege-. table compound, It began. reinvigorating her stomach and in a short time helped her astonishingly.

Reliable LifeInsurance at Low Rates. The Home Benefit Life Association, which wis incorporated in 1880 under the luws of the State, is the largest, oldest and most successful mutual life insurance company on the Coast. That it holds out the stronyest of searchers after * thoroughly reliable and at the same time low-priced life insurance, is evidenced most emphatically by the fact that it has during the per‘od of 11s existence paid out over half a million dollars’ losses and at a cost to policy holders of less than one-half that exacted by the the so-called ‘‘old-line’’ companies. Installmentsare payable at definite . r dates written in the policy, and these payments are solightand judiciously distributed through the year that they are scarcely felteven by a poor man. The policies are definite contracts. for the full amount written therein, and tree from all technicalities and burden+ some conditions. _The-membership is} composed of the leading business and professional_men of the Ooist, the majority of its members beingin and near the city of San Francisco, whee it is best known. : At the etid of each period of five years, division of surplus, consisting of reserve paid on each existing policy with profits from interest, and la, sed reserves, will provide a substantial reduction of futnre ‘cost. Certificates after being in force for.a period of five yeare do not lapse for non-payment of premiums so long as there remains in the reservefund an amount to the credit of such certificate applicable to the payment of premiums thereon. If at the end ofthe five-year period the member desires to surrender his policy. he is entitled to the full amount of reserve that has been paid, thus giving surrender value.’’ Another important advantage afforded by the, Association’s rules is that when a policy has been in force five years or more it is absolutely incontestable, The $2,000 policy paid tothe widow of the late Samuel M, Shurtleff isthe first loss the Association has been called upon to pay here although it has a large membership in this locality ; and the promptness with which it. tea met the loss as shown by tlie following wins for it the encomiums of all; Nevapa Crry, Jan. 11, 1890.

Household Furniture, © MAKING IT KNOWN. Some Practical i Pointers om Ade vertising. © Nathaniel C, Fowler, Jr., delivered an address upon “‘advertising’’ at the Grocers’ Reunion, at Washington, and it was full to the brim of points like these: : The man who is so settled in business that his business cannot increase had better setile in another world, Advertising notonly brings trade— it directs trade ; it creates trade. Half of the customers in any community do not know all they want until some body tellsthem; and no matter: how small may be the community, no man’s tongue,nor his wife’ 8 tongue, can cover the field. bd Advertising alone‘can tell the ridople of the leading special contents of a store, and ina dignified, mest legitimate way inform everybody what there is new-and what there is old which they oughtto have. ~ % You bave soinething to sell ; there is somebody who needs it;connect that something with that somebody end there is a probability ofa trade; and the world over,the experience of every man who has made a_ success in any line of business or-trade~ proves: -beyond adoubt that advertising is the only medium which wi'l bring a pros pective buyer to the store when everything else fails to get him the-e.

F. E. Mennel was the owner of the goods and he brought them over on a speculation. He’ held . fresh butter at 35 cents a pound and keg butter at 30. For potatoes he wanted 4cents a pound. He found sale for what be had. It was his ip. tention to take back. to Colfax what bagguge he could get for parties going below. Itis the first:time in many years that a pack train has been used for bringing goods into this city. The Taylor train istheone that rnns regularly. between Colfax and Iowa Hill. The jury in the case of Robert J, Lee, the man tried for-assault-to—commit murder in having-slashed Robert Simmons with a razor, retired at 6:28 Tuesday evening. On the first ballot they all voted against finding a verdict according to the-charge.. On the-qu2stion_as_to-whether he was guilty of assault with adeadly weapon with intent to do great bodily harm they at first stood 3 for conviction and 9 for acquittal. Later the vote was 6 “and 6. -At2o’clock a.

The burial is to tuke place at San Juan, — . Tn a day or two a large force of. men will be employed in shoveling snow off the railroad track between this city and Grase Valley, The people residing along the San Juan Ridge had not till Wednesday seen a San Francisco paper since a week ago last Saturday.

Godair, Henry Housell and P, Ozalla were three day: . i getting to town from Cement Hill; « distance of three miles. They used horses in bieaking the trail. According to the Indian legend there was in the year of 1842 a snowstorm similur tothe present one, and when the thaw came the Sacramento Valley became a vast inland sea. Thereiis five and ‘a half feet of snow at the. town of Washington, Con, Grissell, who is one of the pioneer residents there, says he never before knew: itto be more than two and a_half feet deep. Herman Uphoff has had to close his saloon in the -basemont “of the Crase building at Grass Valley,’as the walls were so badly. shaken by-the fall-ef the roof that the structure is liable to keai over at any time.

Anarticle is going the rounds of the press, stating that the game of hearts, played with cards, has been introduc: ed into high c ciety and bids fair to be as popular as progressive euchre wasafew years ago. It is nothing more than the old game called ‘‘Qold Torkey.”’. The rules are. the samo; SS There igmore money in circulation jhere now than for sometime previous to thestorm.

Reliable LifeInsurance at Low Rates. The Home Benefit Life Association, which wis incorporated in 1880 under the luws of the State, is the largest, oldest and most successful mutual life insurance company on the Coast. That it holds out the stronyest of searchers after * thoroughly reliable and at the same time low-priced life insurance, is evidenced most emphatically by the fact that it has during the per‘od of 11s existence paid out over half a million dollars’ losses and at a cost to policy holders of less than one-half that exacted by the the so-called ‘‘old-line’’ companies. Installmentsare payable at definite . r dates written in the policy, and these payments are solightand judiciously distributed through the year that they are scarcely felteven by a poor man. The policies are definite contracts. for the full amount written therein, and tree from all technicalities and burden+ some conditions. _The-membership is} composed of the leading business and professional_men of the Ooist, the majority of its members beingin and near the city of San Francisco, whee it is best known. : At the etid of each period of five years, division of surplus, consisting of reserve paid on each existing policy with profits from interest, and la, sed reserves, will provide a substantial reduction of futnre ‘cost. Certificates after being in force for.a period of five yeare do not lapse for non-payment of premiums so long as there remains in the reservefund an amount to the credit of such certificate applicable to the payment of premiums thereon. If at the end ofthe five-year period the member desires to surrender his policy. he is entitled to the full amount of reserve that has been paid, thus giving surrender value.’’ Another important advantage afforded by the, Association’s rules is that when a policy has been in force five years or more it is absolutely incontestable, The $2,000 policy paid tothe widow of the late Samuel M, Shurtleff isthe first loss the Association has been called upon to pay here although it has a large membership in this locality ; and the promptness with which it. tea met the loss as shown by tlie following wins for it the encomiums of all; Nevapa Crry, Jan. 11, 1890.

Half of the customers in any community do not know all they want until some body tellsthem; and no matter: how small may be the community, no man’s tongue,nor his wife’ 8 tongue, can cover the field. bd Advertising alone‘can tell the ridople of the leading special contents of a store, and ina dignified, mest legitimate way inform everybody what there is new-and what there is old which they oughtto have. ~ % You bave soinething to sell ; there is somebody who needs it;connect that something with that somebody end there is a probability ofa trade; and the world over,the experience of every man who has made a_ success in any line of business or-trade~ proves: -beyond adoubt that advertising is the only medium which wi'l bring a pros pective buyer to the store when everything else fails to get him the-e.
