The Organ-Criichet Wedding.
James Colley’s residence at the corner of
Nevada and Water streets was the scene of
a very happy assemblage last evening. The
occasion was the wedding of Mrs. Colley’s
niece, Miss Hallie Grace Critchet, and Clarence V. Organ. ‘The ceremony was performed by Rev, J. T. Murrish of the M. E.
Church, and the attending couple were Miss
Maggie; sister to the bridegroom, and Richard J. Tremaine. ~-‘*fhe~ guests -were” with
few exceptions limited to the relations of
the bride and groom.
The floral ornamentations of the interior
of the house were uwumerous and tasty, and
all the appointments of the affair were elegant.
Mr. and Mrs. Organ, who are among Nevada City’s best-liked young people, will
continue to reside here. The TRANSCRIPT
wishes them uninterrupted health, happiness
and prosperity.

The Federal Loan,
The Federal Loan quartz mine, in Willow
Valley district, about two miles and a half
from Nevada City, is looking unusually
well. They are still sinking, and where
they are working now they have a six-foot
ledge. The rock, good and bad, is all
crushed as taken out and it averages a little
over $11 per ton, If only the good ore were
taken out and crushed it would give an average of $30 per ton, The company have a
lot of sulphurets, which run from $80 to
$90 per ton, The ten-stamp mill is kept
running night and day, Sundays included.
The Federal Loan is proving to be a big
property, and is another instance of what
pluck and perseverance will do in opening
up a mine.

SATURDAY NIGHT. .
The Attractions That Brought Out a Large
Crowd of People.
The merry go-round drew a larger andience Saturday evening than was ever seen
at a circus here, and that is saying a great
deal. Over 1,500 tickets for rides were
sold, and in addition to ‘that there were
several hundred people looking en, making
the tetal number-who visited the Boulderstreet attraction aggregate about “2,000.
This detracted greatly from the number of
people usually seen on the principal streets
and in the steres on Saturday evening. The
proprietor stated that he would leave here
today for the lower part of the State,
whereat many merchants will rejoice,
On Broad street, while the new band was
playing, there were several hundred people
out listening to the fine musiv,
During the early part of the evening, before the merry-go-round panic struck the
crowd, the merchants did a thriving business and took ‘in large amounts of money
from their regular monthly customers.
The new band played for several hours on
the streets Saturday evening and the music
“was highly-appreciated. Seme of the tnnes
were old popular airs, and that was what
seemed to please’ the people,
Thé'bilk of the $25,000 which was paid
out by four imining companies on Saturday
afterneon and evening was scattered pretty
generally over the town in payment of
monthly bills and extras,
One merchant informed the TRANSCRIPT
that five of his customers whom he had carried for over a year, made their last payments on old accounts on Saturday evening.
The miners around here who were ‘out of
work so Jong, now that they have steady
work; are on velvet once more,
There was not a dispute of any kind on
the streets Saturday and not an arrest was
made for any offense,
One thing canbe truthfully said of the
Nevada City saloon keepers, and that is
they will net allow any disorderly conduct
carried on in their places. The very moment they see the least intimation of a
probable row they squelch it before it_gets
a good btart, wong
There are no public gambling ‘ games carried_on in this city,-se these-whe-will play
are compelled to do it in private, and that
is the Nevada City style just now.

man at James Cairns’ harness. club on Satrday evening: ~Hé dréw the new arness.

_ Bold Burglars.
At Oakland Saturday the residence of
Mrs. Carlotta Shermer, mother of Mrs. A.
Isoard of this city, was entered in broad
daylight by two masked men, They placed
a pistol to her breast and said: ‘Give us
your money or we'll kill you.” Mrs. Shermer is about seventy years of age and is
known to be quite wealthy. Since the
death of her husband some years ago she
has lived alone. ‘The men entered the
house at 11 o’clock in the forenoon, during
the temporary absence of the aged servant.
After binding and gagging the old lady they
ransacked the house, and in a trunk found
$270, which Mrs. Shermer had put away
for the payment of her taxes. It is thonght
that the burglars spent the night before in
the cellar, waiting for a good opportunity
to do the job,

The New Band,
The brass band lately organized in this
city made its first appearance Saturday
evening. Several of the members are employed at the Champion mine, and as a
compliment to Foreman Tredennick the
band went te his house and tendered him a
serenade, With a little more practice together the band will be the best we have
ever had here.

‘A Solid Fact. i
Post : The Miners’ Convention will give
an impetus to mining that should have beneficial results for the State. The. industry
has been allowed to languish, but with the
knowledge that there is as much gold in the
rocks and hills of the Coast as ~has been
turned up, the peeple who are out of employment might be induced to take pick and
shovel and stir up the wealth that is awaiting an owner.

A RELIC.
Helped Carry the Dead Robbers up the Steep
Yuba Hill.
R. M, Van dean, a former resident of
this city, who is stopping here now, showed
us today a relic of old times in the shape of
a receipt. The receipt reads as follows :
“Received of William C. Stiles five dollars for assisting in carrying dead bodies of
robbers up the Yuba hill.
“ May-23, 1866.”
The following names are signed to it:
James Jones, R. B. Gentry, A. W. Potter,
George Dowd, W. H. Colley, George R.
Crawford, R. M. Van Loan, C. W. Cornell,
Alex Gault, E. F. Bean, James Lee, H: C.
Mills, Oscar Palmer, T. C. Lampe.
The above named men constituted a portion of the Sheriff’s posse that went out
from this city in search of the three highwaymen who robbed the San Juan stage a
few miles from this place. The late Steve
Venard was‘also a member of the posse and
tracked the robbers to their retreat’ en
Myers’ ravine, where with a Henry repeating rifle he shot and killed all three of them
and recovered the stolen treasure.
Dick Gentry was Sheriff at the time, and
we believe the late W. C. Stiles was the
Coroner. The place where the robbers
were killed was in a rough, rocky ravine,
near,the. South Yuba river, not over two or
three miles from where the robbery was
committed. In order to get the dead bodies
up te the road they had to be carried a
long distance, and it was for money paid
for this service that the above receipt was
given. 4

A-Ledge of Fine Rock at the Mount George
Quar!z Mine.
A rich strike was made in the Mount
George mine yesterday. Specimens of the
quartz were brought to town today and
shown to many: of. our citizens. The rock
is filled With rich sulphurets and shows
considerable free gold. The Mount George
is located on Rush creek, about three miles
west of this city. It is owned by Dr. W.
C, Jones, John E. Carter of Grass Valley,
Fred Zeitler of this city and others. The
mine has been prospected for the past
year or two, the indications met with encouraging the owners to keep on with the
work. -Mining men regard this strike as a
very important one, for the reason that the
Rush creek section was fer.a long time regarded as a peor quartz ‘section. The
results at the Mount George so far will
tend to revive prospecting throughout that
locality, as a number of ledges are known to
exist there. ~The ledge at the Mount
George is two and a half feet wide.
