WALLACE J. WILLIAMS,-P. M, RR EEE NESTE EINE I OLE Uron the trial of the case of The People vs. John W. Clemo at Grass Valley, prosecuted by Wm. Hales, and charging him" with stealing water, the evidence showed that Mr. Clemo purchas ed all the water he had ‘used in his mining operations at all times, and not alone on the day of the assault as we were led to suppose in our article of the 28th instant. Yesterpay’s Unionsays: Pay gravel has been struck in the old Town Talk gravel mine, a short distance east of town and opposite Calliot and Lareaux’s chlorination works. This gravel claim has been standing idle for many years, but recently a company of working miners have been prospecting the ground. Tue Democrat says that the injury sustained by James Cremin of Marysville at the base ball game last Sunday at Grass’ Valley is greater than at first supposed. In addition to the dislocation, one of the bones of the arm is fractured just above the wrist. He will not be able to do any work for some time.

Kate Bender Wins the 2:30 Trot .-And Demoralizes the Wise Ones—General Notes. ‘ There was a slight improvement in the attendance at Glenbrook yesterday, and the horses were better matched than on either of the preceding days. The judges were R. J. Lowe, John Spaulding and A. Vance; the timers, J. A. Seeley and John Lawrence. The opening race was the 2:30 trot for $250 between Lucy, Captain and’ Kate Berider. In. the pools at the track Captain sold for $5, Lucy &t $2:50 and Kate at from $1.50 to $2, although Thursday evening Kate went as low as $1.50 in a $30 pool. : First heat—Lucy took the pole, Captain second place and Kate took the outside. They got off at the seventh trial. Captain and Lucy traveled like .a_ span. for a third, Kate falling behind ten pr twelve lengths. -Then Captain got two lengths away from Lucy on account of 4 break by the latter. They kept this position for a quarter when Lucy began to gain and came down the homestretch at a-beautiful gait, passing under the -wire only a neck behind Captainwho had not skipped once in the mile,. was pushed to his best work, and won in 2:31, which is the fastest heat he ever went on record for. Kate by dint of running. managed to save her distance. . : At this stage Lucy became favorite in the pools, selling at $20, while Captain went, as low as $10, and Kate for $4, and less. : Second heat—They got off at the sixth trial. This heat was a surprise for the ‘“‘boys.”? They haa no more than got the word than Captain went into the air. Kate got down to her work and pulled away from Lucy who was second. Half way between the first quarter and half Lucy broke and Captain passed her. Kate kept the lead easily and passed under the wire at a jog in 2:31..Captain was three lengths too late, and Lucy would not have saved her distance had not Dan Dennison pulled up Kate to let her in. ai created another revolution in the pool box. Kate sold for $5, Lucy for $2 and Captain for $1.5v. Third heat—On the third score the animals went, Captain running nouch of the way and lagging behind from the start. Kate had the best of it to the three-quarter: when Lucy pulled up to her ana won the heat bya head in 2:35, Captaiu who was getting very tired not much more than saving his distance. Kate sold for $10, Lucy for $4.5 to $5, and Captain for 50 cents. Fourth heat—They got away with Lucy about a full length behind and she did not recover from the disadvantage, the race veing between Kate and Captain. Lhe two latter kept close together all the way, Kate winning the heat in 2:31, Capiain one length behind and Lucy two lengths. Fifth heat—Kate led the entire distance, Captain and Lucy contending to the half for seconu place. Then Captain fell to third place and Lucy made an effort tu yet the lead, but failed to do so by half a length, Kate winning in 2:35. Kate won the race and first money, Lucy second and Captain third.

Marysville Democrat of Wednesday: ‘‘Soon after: the North Bloomfield Mining Company and Several other companies, at the suit of Edward Woodruff, were served with an injunction, from Judge Sawyer, it sold‘all-its water interests to the Eureka Lake ,Mining Company, including the American Mining Company and the ‘Manzanita Company; and the Eureka ‘Company at once turned allits water into these three mines and has kept upa piping on all three, night and day, to the present time, sending down more debris daily than they did before the injunction was served. We believe a feeble and ineffectual effort is_ making to stop the Eureka from piping. The effects of this method is not yet apparent.”’ There is not the slightest particle of truth in the foregoing. The North Bloomfield Company has not sold a drop of water to the Eureka Lake Company. The Manzinita mine does not belong to the latter corporation, but is part of the Milton Company’s. possessions and the Milton and the Bloomfield companies are practically under the same ownership and management. Since the destruction of the English Dam by anti-mining vandals there has been no water running inthe Milton ditches later than the early part of June in any year, and none of the North Bloomfield water has been trans‘erred to the Milton at any time since the service of the injunction. fhe Democrat’s informant is making a fool of that paper by causing it to publish such unfounded statements. Couldn’t Find it. An old Nevada City miner who has been residing in Ohio for thirty years past, arrived in this city about ten days ago. He accidentally learned through thepaper that quariz mines were paying big n this section and immediately left his farm and came on to see if a certain quartz claim was located that he got big prospects out of when he was here. He told an acquaintance that the whole country had changed so much he had about given up hopes of finding the old @laim. He proposes to keep up his search for a few days longer and try to recall some old land-mark whereby he may rediscover what he believes to be a nonanza. We hope he will be successful. Removed to San Francisco. A gentleman who attended a wrestling exhibition at Turn Verein Hall, San Francisco, a few evenings ago, says that R. T. Trevithick, late of this eity, was an active participant in the proceedings. He was introduced to the iudience as ‘‘Mr. Williams,’’ and won the plaudits of the spectators xy threwing his opponent in a satch «as catch can wrestling match three times in suvcession. A few days ago he also turned up 4s a member of the Merion club ina mateh game-ofcricket. that was played at the bay. Immediate Delivery. The Post Office Department has issued a new seriesof regulations in regard to the special delivery system, the principal feature of which are that only mail matter of the first class, which comprehends letters, postal cards and sealed packages, is contemplated for special delivery by the law, and that mail matter of other classes cannot be specially delivered, even though they may bear the special delivery stamp; and that special delivery on Sunday is atthe option of the Postmaster. The Crazy Celestial. Ah Mun, the crazy Chinaman arrested Wednesday evening, having been examined by the. proper authorities and pronounced demented, will be sent to China by his fellow countrymen if they can raise enough money to pay for his passage and for some one to accompany him. make some provisions soon for his removal tothe Flowery Kingdom he will be committed -to tle asylum at Stockton. ‘To Organize Tonight.

The Marysville Democrat of Tuesday evening tells this: His curves were crooked and they just fanned the wind every time they struck at.them; in fact hewas a daisy for the Wusiness. When pitching for the Reserves he. was in his glory, but when he was trying to nash a girl.and some other fellow stepped in his ardor . became dampened. He went to Grass Valley on last Saturday and before retiring had made the acquaintance of a young lady with whom he became infatuated and very earnestly requested her to accompany him to_ the ball grounds in aconveyance on the following day. With a gush and a giggle she accepted his invitation and after he had dined the following day drove up beforé the mansion in regal style, his collar glistening as the sun shone upon it, his blue necktie was, oh! so pretty. With a hop, skipand a jump she was at ‘his side and seon after they were viewing the beauties of Watt Park. He apologized with the grace of a prince'and was soon on the diamond practicing and showing his athletic accomplishments to great advantage. The game began and he for a while forgot his fair inamorata. She also forgot him -for it appears that one of her best beaus‘coming along she invited him into the buggy and toge ther they went speeding away. When the second inning was out with the flush of anticipated victory cov ering his face he went to see the girl, but she was gone and upon being told the circumstances he used unpoetical expressions, something not accredited to Milton. a ———-ome The Greatest Lecture. The San Francisco Call says: ‘“‘A Summer in Greece,’”’ was the title of a very interesting lecture delivered last evening by Ma jor Dane to a very large audience in the Metropolitan Temple. The beauties of the landscape and the historical surroundings of the country were graphically depicted. The lecturer continued to graphically and eloquently describe the maryellous of ancient and modern Greece, as witnessed on his trip, and depicted in the classic writings of that wonderful land. Asis pretty generally known, our citizens will next Wednesday evening have an opportun'ty of hearing Major Dane lecture on the same subject at the Theatre in this city. The Native Sons of the Golden West, have the management of the lecture, and they willapply the net proceeds toward fitting up a reading room and library here. Tickets can be obtained from the order. All pupils of the public schools of thiscity will be admitted regardless of age at the minimum price of -25cents, provided they procure tickets in advance from F.,T. Nilon, teacher in the Grammar Department. ——. -.ee Improvements. The city authorities are making some very nice improvements in this city. On Piety Hill they have put in three new crossings and a number of new sewers. The Wyoming bridge and roadway is to be put in good order, and the almost impassable road to the Charonnat mine is tobe fixed up. There are also many other needed improvements to be made—if the money in the Treasury holds out. >_> Some people growl about the tightness of the money market. Ifthat class want to understand the true definition of tight money market they ought to go to Marys‘ville and stay awhile. Ugh, it’s just awful there since the closing down of the hydraulic mines, and the withdrawal of over a hundred teams that.used to ply between that. place and the mountain towns. SEE cho, the celebrated automaton, can answer any question put to it. Husband—I know of one question it could’nt answer. Wife—Tell me what it is. is the attitudeof the Democratic party on the tariff?. Just ask at the next matinee. = Seg Wituram SHAKESPEARE has been appointed Postmaster at Kalamazoo, Mich. Itis to be hoped that ‘no ‘gentleman named Bacon wil] start upand claim that the appointment was intended for him. Bre catechised in relation to his expectancy in the future state, the late Josh Billings replied that he didn’t care which place he went to, he had friends in both places. Tue Chinese Government has decided to make haste in building railways. throughout the Empire, for which purpose a vast amount was recently. borrowed in Europe. ——— Ir has been decided by the Secretary of the Navy that the unfinished war ships—the Atlanta, Boston and Chicago—are to be completed. Wirr—I have heard that Psy. Husband—What TRICKS ON THE TRACKS. Dangers from Which Engineers Save the Public and Themselves. ey One whois accustomed to _railway traveling can scarcely realize how much he is dependent for safety upon the engineer. Added to the responsibility of their station, engineers are also in constant danger of accidents caused by the tricks of jealous rivals. This rivalry, it is said, sometimes prompts to the doing of utterly mean tricks. A Nitkle Plate engineer after his very first trip was laid off because he had ‘‘cut out’? all the bearings of his engine. He was re-instated, however, when he proved that ‘some rival had filled his oiling can with emery. Another new engineer was suspended for burning out the flues of his boiler. Through grief at the loss of his position he died, and then aconscience stricken rival—confessed that he put oil In the tank so that it foamed and showed water atthe top gauge, when in reality there was scarcely a quart in the boiler! These intense jealousies, toincident to their work, has a terribly straining effect on the nerve, Locomotive Engineers may look alla hearty class. Ex Chief Engineer A.S. Hampton, of Indianof those apparently hearty men, but he says: strain, and jolting came near finishing me.”’ His sufferings localized in catarrh of the bladder, but he used Warner’s Safe Cure faithfully for twenty weeks, and now exclaims, ‘‘I am a well man.” T. S. Ingraham, of Cleveland, Ohio, Assistant Chief Engineer, and other prominent members are also emphatic in its praise. The Locomotive Engineers’ Brotherhood has 17,000 members and°240 divisions. Its headquarters is in Cleveland, Ohio, where Chief Engineer Arthur for twenty years has exercised almost dietatorial sway. It was organized in August 1863, by the employees of the Michigan Central. It has given nearly two million dollars to the widows and orphans of deceased members.—The Railway Review. Swart’s photogaphs are second to no artist in the State.
