ROUGHING IT. & Nevada County Man tn Nevada State. Oscrota, Nevapa, Sept. 4, 1889. Epiror Transcrrer—We reached. Ogden and brushed -off the sands of the plains, It is quite a busy place being a business center with fine streets and good and substantial buildifgs. We changed cars and after a two-bours’ ride reached Salt Lake City. This is truly the garden spot of Utah. _ It is situated on a large platean haiving just a yentle-clope-to-farnish-a n tural drainage. Its streets are very broad and straight, being about 100 feet wide, with sidewalks of cemented gravel or stone flags from 16 to 24 feet wide. Go where you will, the sidewalks and roadsides for miles are lined with cottonwood and poplar shade trees. The stores on the busihess streets make a fine appearance, and very many residences are of attractive architecture and nearly all of brick, stone and adobe. The Gentiles are jubilant over the success they met wih at the last election, the city vote being for the first time i: their favor, giving a majority over the Mormon vote.of 112. They are now working like beavers to carry their municipal election which takes place in February next. There is a boom here in real estate, with ready sales and good prices, and they confidently believe that if the Liberal ‘party curries the next election a new epoc will, open, upon. Utah in general and Salt Lake City in particular. The people ~ are very sociable and agreeable to strangers. We left Salt Lake City by the Utah Central for Frisco at 10:30 a. w. and reached Frisco at 11:30 a. Mm. next day, traveling all night. This is a dreary tide, traveling as we did the length of it is.broken here and there with lands under cultivation, and at many of the stations, fine meals can be had; but from Frisco to-Osceola is where the cream of the fatigue of the whole jour ney comes in. Frisco was once. quite a place, but is now nearly deserted. Here at 5 -P. M. we entereil the stage, which was a small spring wagon drawn by two mules about twice the size of a jack rabbit. They took us across a filteen mile desert, making the distance in three and one half bours, when we took supper and changed our team for a span of horses. We then entered a defile in a range of mountains which we had to cross; but they don’t go over such things here—they go through. They make or work no roads, but take the land ax Nature made it, In crossing a range they simply travel the cuts and gulleys between the hills. A range may be two miles through and could readily be overcome in that distance by a cut road, but they will travel perhaps ten or twelve miles-to reach the opposite side. Penetrating this range we had to cross another desert valley of sixteeri miles, then another range and another valley and reached the sixty mile station after riding cramped up on a seat with no chance tostretch out or sleep, unless you by force of necessity go to bobbing and perhaps fall off the wagon, which the driver told me was not a rare occurrence. The next station we reached at 7 P. m. and changed teams, then started on our journey of 36 miles more through mountain passes and over plains of dreary waste, when we came to a deep and steep mountain gorge the bed of which is our road and has barren hills on both sides. Not as much asa low shrub is in sight. After scratching down this for about a mile and a half we suddenly came upon Oh See! Oh La! (Osceola). And whata town! Six or seven houses on one spot of about one hundred feet square, with a store, butcher shop, restaurant (kept by a Chinaman), a lodging house and postoffice. A few small buildings are scattered about on the hill side. The Osceola mine is situated about a mile further down the gorge, but of this I will write you later. Getting out of the stage I-steod and took a view of my surroundings. In the “far off’ I saw a bird majestically sailing as it were directly towards me. Ah, methought, that is a noble eagle on aramble from its mountain nest, and a place cannot be so bad when honored by its presence; but as it came nearer I said I was mistaken and it was only a hawk; but when it came right over my head it gave a caw and lo, I knew -it was a crow. It made two Or three circles as if uncertain what to do, then it gave another caw, as if to cheer or poke fun at me, straig! tened itself® out and sailed away. I-Jooked and wondered if this was not intended as a premonition for me to follow its example, but it had wings that made its passage “free as air’ while the only wings that would help me are the wings on twenty. dollar pieces.

Before his death, which occurred about six o’clock Friday evening, Peter Chappel, who was fatally shot by David Steel the previous evening at the town of Washington, made an ante mortem statement. He testified in substance that a few weeks ago he jokingly said to“‘Bluejay,” one of the depraved. women of the Rocky Bar house, that he was going te kil! Steele; that-on~ the” night “oF the shooting Steele approached him as he was leaving Worthley’s stable and said, “Did you say you was going to kill me?’’ that Chappel responded ‘‘Oh, pshaw,”’ when Steel grasped him by his coat collar, and presenting the pistol (a self-cocker) to his neck fired; that as he fell S:eele exclaimed, “‘Oh God, I have shot you ;” that the wounded man said, ‘Turn me ‘over, Dave, I am choking ;’? tii Steele then partially carried and partially dragged him into Kohler’s store, said ‘Pete is shot,” and walked away. It was soon after this that Constable Crawford arrested Steele’ at John McBean’s where he sat talking with that gentleman. The officer did not get the weapon with which the shooting was done. Chappel’s body is to be brought to this city for burial. ; Constable Crawford brought his prisoner down on Saturday’s, stage, arriving here about 11 o’clock . a: M. The two went to the National Hotel and at noon had lunch there. In the afterneon Steele was-closeted for two hours or more at the: law office of Messrs. Caldwell & Little whom he has sec ured as his’attorneys. He was then taken to the county jail and locked up to await his preliminary examination. The defense will be that the shot was accidental., It will be claimed that Steel struck Chappel on the side of the head with his pistol, and that being a glancing blow the weapon went off just as the muzzle was oppo-. site Chappel’s neck’ Just after being arrested the shooter made the assertion that it was an accident, and he has repeated it a number of times since. He did not live at the Rocky Bar house, as heretofore published, but boarded at Worthley’s Hotel. He was & frequent visi'or at the Bar, however, and was there the afternoon of the killing; hut hearing that Chappel was conting down he went away. Steel is a finely built fellow standing six feet and four inches in his stockings. He is notahard drinker, and so far as could be learned had a good reputation for peace and quietness. Constable Crawford says he never before knew of his having any trouble. Chappel was also well built: and about five feet and eight inches tall. It is likewise stated of him that he was not quarrelsome. eee tee There reemsto be a marked difference of opinion as to the merits of the case. One well-known and reputable man who came down from Washington Saturday said to the reporter: “The best citizens up there look upon it as a cold-blooded and cowardly murder.’? On the other hand, Constable Crawford is of the opinion.that it ie nothing worse than an unfortunate accident. A PLANK ROAD. Mow an Early Day scheme toe Build Oue Failed. The Democrat says that the most stupendous scheme that ever agitated the people of Yuba county was the Nevada county plank read project. It was broached January 25, 1853, at an assembly of citizens held in Marysville that evening. On the 29th another meeting was convened, anda committee appointed to confer with the citizens of Nevada City, Grass Valley and Rough and Ready. At another meeting, February 12th, a committee was of ten appointedto propose to the citizens of the Nevada county townsto pay one half the cost of the road. Meetings were held frequently, and $225,000 was informally subscribed by the people of Marysville, while in Nevada county the limit was $125,000. A suitable’ law was framed and presented to the Legislature, which was passed by that body in May. ; On June 30, 1853, the engineers who had been employed to make the survey and estimate reported as follows: Length of road, 3914 miles; cost of construction, $374,852.75. Total estimated annual revenue, $305,000; expenses, $23,000. Notwithstanding the favorable outlook as presented in this report, the citizens, when called upon to give more formally their support, would not subscribe. In November a proposition was made in the C.ty~ Council to appropriate $200,000, but the charter did not permit over $100,000 to be donated. This difficulty was overcome and an election called for February 28, 1854, to vote on the question of subseribing $340,000 for the plank road. fhe result was—yes, 947; no, 33. Two attempts were made to form a company, bat both failed. An election was held May 14 to decide whethera tax should be levied to build the road and resulted in the defeat of the proposition by a. majority of over one hundred. .

WHY STAND YE HERE IDLE? The “Tidings”. Gives Young Men a Geod Pointer. It is a strange fact that, while meny of our young men are bemoaning the lack of profitable employment, so little attention is paid by them to mining. These are less -practica! and scientific miners in the world than can be found in any other field of operations, and such men are always in demand. Supt. Starr of the Empire would, never have gained his present position had he not spent years in every department of the mine and made mining and-mining methods a study. Then there is John Hays Hammond, V. M. Clement (formerly of the Empire), Howard L. Weed, an ex-Grass Valleyan, Geo. A. Hare of the Yuba mine, Fred.

Great Rerth American Breath Segulater. “It isn’t one man in three hundred that goes out of the theater between acts to get a clove,” said the Family Grocer, ‘‘who could tell you anything about what he comes back chewing on. Cloves are the unexpanded flewer buds of an evergreen tree which grows to a height of about 35 feet. Upon their first appesrance the flower buds are palein color, but they gradually” assume a greenish tint, and afterwards change to a bright red, when they are ready to be gathered. The cloves of commerce are about half an inch long, consisting of a long calyx, at the termination of which are four spreading sepals and the same number of unopened petals forming a little round ball. They have a strong odor and a very acrid taste. They contain a volatile oil comprising about one fifth of the substance, which may be obtained by distilling the cloves with water a number of times. This oil-has the odor and taste of cloves. Tt is at first almost colorless, or of a pale yellow, but after a while becomes brown, It is really a mixture of two distinct oils, and is of great value in relieving the pain occasioned by toothaches. The clove tree is indigenous to the spice islands of the East Indian Archipelago, and has been cultivated in that region by the Dutch for many years. The leaves are large and: oblong in shape, while the beautiful crimson flowers occur in groups. Cloves formed the basis of an important trade in the early part of the Christian era. The Portuguese navigators by going around the African continent to reach the East Indies obtained for their country decided advantages over other European nations in thetrade in this Oriental product. Early in the seventeenth century, the Moluccas were captured by the Dutch, who gought to secure a monopoly of the trade in cloves by killing all the trees except those of the Amboyna Islands. The French succeeded in transplanting the trees in Mauritius in 1770, and they were planted in Guiana and Zanzibar at a later date. Amboyna and Zanzibar are now the chief sources of supply, though cloves are grown successfully in the larger islands of the East Indian Archipelago as well as in Guiana and the West India Islands. Their chief uses are as a condiment and for medicinal purposes.’’ é The SE FOLLOWED SUIT.My wife has been under physicians care fee two years, for what they called “liver comPlaint.” She would get some rolief while takiug prescriptions, but would soon fall back into the same drowsy, inactive state, 1 got her a bottle of “The California Remedy,” Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla.

Unsuitable Marriages the Most Prolific Source of Trouble, The truth is—and it is the truth that many are beginning to realize, nor will it-be conjured away until all rightminded men and women give it some serious thought—there is too much marrying and giving in marriage in the world. By far the greater number of young girls of the present day are raised with the sole ambition of ‘‘making a good match,” as if the quintessence of happiness in life was to be found in matrimony. The author is not an ‘‘old maid,” to use the current expression, and she has no intentions of boasting when she says she might try her own experience in married life did she wish to do so, but she can assure her readers that no feeling of ‘‘sour grapes’’ influenced her opinion that -more unhappiness results from unsuitable marriages than. from any other evil in existence; that men and women marrying from the wrong motives invariably bring affliction upon themselves and their children, and that therefore the Hymeneal flame should not be lighted except under circumstances of peculiar promise. Men and women should both remain unmarried until they have reached an age when intelligence and common sense prevail over impulse; but even then let them look carefully into their own reasons for taking so important astep. Let them lay their day dreams aside and face a cold and conventional reality, and thus, with a heart prepared for the bitter or the sweet, with @ mind resolved to make many sacrifices and a temper inclined only to look on the brighter side of life, they may prove to be the exceptional couple, and, like the blissful lovers in our old fairy tales, “live long and happily forever.’’—Eunice Stewart, in Washn Post. : pee fhe gave them Castoria, saw her lakt, and she looked .

ROUGHING IT. & Nevada County Man tn Nevada State. Oscrota, Nevapa, Sept. 4, 1889. Epiror Transcrrer—We reached. Ogden and brushed -off the sands of the plains, It is quite a busy place being a business center with fine streets and good and substantial buildifgs. We changed cars and after a two-bours’ ride reached Salt Lake City. This is truly the garden spot of Utah. _ It is situated on a large platean haiving just a yentle-clope-to-farnish-a n tural drainage. Its streets are very broad and straight, being about 100 feet wide, with sidewalks of cemented gravel or stone flags from 16 to 24 feet wide. Go where you will, the sidewalks and roadsides for miles are lined with cottonwood and poplar shade trees. The stores on the busihess streets make a fine appearance, and very many residences are of attractive architecture and nearly all of brick, stone and adobe. The Gentiles are jubilant over the success they met wih at the last election, the city vote being for the first time i: their favor, giving a majority over the Mormon vote.of 112. They are now working like beavers to carry their municipal election which takes place in February next. There is a boom here in real estate, with ready sales and good prices, and they confidently believe that if the Liberal ‘party curries the next election a new epoc will, open, upon. Utah in general and Salt Lake City in particular. The people ~ are very sociable and agreeable to strangers. We left Salt Lake City by the Utah Central for Frisco at 10:30 a. w. and reached Frisco at 11:30 a. Mm. next day, traveling all night. This is a dreary tide, traveling as we did the length of it is.broken here and there with lands under cultivation, and at many of the stations, fine meals can be had; but from Frisco to-Osceola is where the cream of the fatigue of the whole jour ney comes in. Frisco was once. quite a place, but is now nearly deserted. Here at 5 -P. M. we entereil the stage, which was a small spring wagon drawn by two mules about twice the size of a jack rabbit. They took us across a filteen mile desert, making the distance in three and one half bours, when we took supper and changed our team for a span of horses. We then entered a defile in a range of mountains which we had to cross; but they don’t go over such things here—they go through. They make or work no roads, but take the land ax Nature made it, In crossing a range they simply travel the cuts and gulleys between the hills. A range may be two miles through and could readily be overcome in that distance by a cut road, but they will travel perhaps ten or twelve miles-to reach the opposite side. Penetrating this range we had to cross another desert valley of sixteeri miles, then another range and another valley and reached the sixty mile station after riding cramped up on a seat with no chance tostretch out or sleep, unless you by force of necessity go to bobbing and perhaps fall off the wagon, which the driver told me was not a rare occurrence. The next station we reached at 7 P. m. and changed teams, then started on our journey of 36 miles more through mountain passes and over plains of dreary waste, when we came to a deep and steep mountain gorge the bed of which is our road and has barren hills on both sides. Not as much asa low shrub is in sight. After scratching down this for about a mile and a half we suddenly came upon Oh See! Oh La! (Osceola). And whata town! Six or seven houses on one spot of about one hundred feet square, with a store, butcher shop, restaurant (kept by a Chinaman), a lodging house and postoffice. A few small buildings are scattered about on the hill side. The Osceola mine is situated about a mile further down the gorge, but of this I will write you later. Getting out of the stage I-steod and took a view of my surroundings. In the “far off’ I saw a bird majestically sailing as it were directly towards me. Ah, methought, that is a noble eagle on aramble from its mountain nest, and a place cannot be so bad when honored by its presence; but as it came nearer I said I was mistaken and it was only a hawk; but when it came right over my head it gave a caw and lo, I knew -it was a crow. It made two Or three circles as if uncertain what to do, then it gave another caw, as if to cheer or poke fun at me, straig! tened itself® out and sailed away. I-Jooked and wondered if this was not intended as a premonition for me to follow its example, but it had wings that made its passage “free as air’ while the only wings that would help me are the wings on twenty. dollar pieces.

Before his death, which occurred about six o’clock Friday evening, Peter Chappel, who was fatally shot by David Steel the previous evening at the town of Washington, made an ante mortem statement. He testified in substance that a few weeks ago he jokingly said to“‘Bluejay,” one of the depraved. women of the Rocky Bar house, that he was going te kil! Steele; that-on~ the” night “oF the shooting Steele approached him as he was leaving Worthley’s stable and said, “Did you say you was going to kill me?’’ that Chappel responded ‘‘Oh, pshaw,”’ when Steel grasped him by his coat collar, and presenting the pistol (a self-cocker) to his neck fired; that as he fell S:eele exclaimed, “‘Oh God, I have shot you ;” that the wounded man said, ‘Turn me ‘over, Dave, I am choking ;’? tii Steele then partially carried and partially dragged him into Kohler’s store, said ‘Pete is shot,” and walked away. It was soon after this that Constable Crawford arrested Steele’ at John McBean’s where he sat talking with that gentleman. The officer did not get the weapon with which the shooting was done. Chappel’s body is to be brought to this city for burial. ; Constable Crawford brought his prisoner down on Saturday’s, stage, arriving here about 11 o’clock . a: M. The two went to the National Hotel and at noon had lunch there. In the afterneon Steele was-closeted for two hours or more at the: law office of Messrs. Caldwell & Little whom he has sec ured as his’attorneys. He was then taken to the county jail and locked up to await his preliminary examination. The defense will be that the shot was accidental., It will be claimed that Steel struck Chappel on the side of the head with his pistol, and that being a glancing blow the weapon went off just as the muzzle was oppo-. site Chappel’s neck’ Just after being arrested the shooter made the assertion that it was an accident, and he has repeated it a number of times since. He did not live at the Rocky Bar house, as heretofore published, but boarded at Worthley’s Hotel. He was & frequent visi'or at the Bar, however, and was there the afternoon of the killing; hut hearing that Chappel was conting down he went away. Steel is a finely built fellow standing six feet and four inches in his stockings. He is notahard drinker, and so far as could be learned had a good reputation for peace and quietness. Constable Crawford says he never before knew of his having any trouble. Chappel was also well built: and about five feet and eight inches tall. It is likewise stated of him that he was not quarrelsome. eee tee There reemsto be a marked difference of opinion as to the merits of the case. One well-known and reputable man who came down from Washington Saturday said to the reporter: “The best citizens up there look upon it as a cold-blooded and cowardly murder.’? On the other hand, Constable Crawford is of the opinion.that it ie nothing worse than an unfortunate accident. A PLANK ROAD. Mow an Early Day scheme toe Build Oue Failed. The Democrat says that the most stupendous scheme that ever agitated the people of Yuba county was the Nevada county plank read project. It was broached January 25, 1853, at an assembly of citizens held in Marysville that evening. On the 29th another meeting was convened, anda committee appointed to confer with the citizens of Nevada City, Grass Valley and Rough and Ready. At another meeting, February 12th, a committee was of ten appointedto propose to the citizens of the Nevada county townsto pay one half the cost of the road. Meetings were held frequently, and $225,000 was informally subscribed by the people of Marysville, while in Nevada county the limit was $125,000. A suitable’ law was framed and presented to the Legislature, which was passed by that body in May. ; On June 30, 1853, the engineers who had been employed to make the survey and estimate reported as follows: Length of road, 3914 miles; cost of construction, $374,852.75. Total estimated annual revenue, $305,000; expenses, $23,000. Notwithstanding the favorable outlook as presented in this report, the citizens, when called upon to give more formally their support, would not subscribe. In November a proposition was made in the C.ty~ Council to appropriate $200,000, but the charter did not permit over $100,000 to be donated. This difficulty was overcome and an election called for February 28, 1854, to vote on the question of subseribing $340,000 for the plank road. fhe result was—yes, 947; no, 33. Two attempts were made to form a company, bat both failed. An election was held May 14 to decide whethera tax should be levied to build the road and resulted in the defeat of the proposition by a. majority of over one hundred. .

WHY STAND YE HERE IDLE? The “Tidings”. Gives Young Men a Geod Pointer. It is a strange fact that, while meny of our young men are bemoaning the lack of profitable employment, so little attention is paid by them to mining. These are less -practica! and scientific miners in the world than can be found in any other field of operations, and such men are always in demand. Supt. Starr of the Empire would, never have gained his present position had he not spent years in every department of the mine and made mining and-mining methods a study. Then there is John Hays Hammond, V. M. Clement (formerly of the Empire), Howard L. Weed, an ex-Grass Valleyan, Geo. A. Hare of the Yuba mine, Fred.

Great Rerth American Breath Segulater. “It isn’t one man in three hundred that goes out of the theater between acts to get a clove,” said the Family Grocer, ‘‘who could tell you anything about what he comes back chewing on. Cloves are the unexpanded flewer buds of an evergreen tree which grows to a height of about 35 feet. Upon their first appesrance the flower buds are palein color, but they gradually” assume a greenish tint, and afterwards change to a bright red, when they are ready to be gathered. The cloves of commerce are about half an inch long, consisting of a long calyx, at the termination of which are four spreading sepals and the same number of unopened petals forming a little round ball. They have a strong odor and a very acrid taste. They contain a volatile oil comprising about one fifth of the substance, which may be obtained by distilling the cloves with water a number of times. This oil-has the odor and taste of cloves. Tt is at first almost colorless, or of a pale yellow, but after a while becomes brown, It is really a mixture of two distinct oils, and is of great value in relieving the pain occasioned by toothaches. The clove tree is indigenous to the spice islands of the East Indian Archipelago, and has been cultivated in that region by the Dutch for many years. The leaves are large and: oblong in shape, while the beautiful crimson flowers occur in groups. Cloves formed the basis of an important trade in the early part of the Christian era. The Portuguese navigators by going around the African continent to reach the East Indies obtained for their country decided advantages over other European nations in thetrade in this Oriental product. Early in the seventeenth century, the Moluccas were captured by the Dutch, who gought to secure a monopoly of the trade in cloves by killing all the trees except those of the Amboyna Islands. The French succeeded in transplanting the trees in Mauritius in 1770, and they were planted in Guiana and Zanzibar at a later date. Amboyna and Zanzibar are now the chief sources of supply, though cloves are grown successfully in the larger islands of the East Indian Archipelago as well as in Guiana and the West India Islands. Their chief uses are as a condiment and for medicinal purposes.’’ é The SE FOLLOWED SUIT.My wife has been under physicians care fee two years, for what they called “liver comPlaint.” She would get some rolief while takiug prescriptions, but would soon fall back into the same drowsy, inactive state, 1 got her a bottle of “The California Remedy,” Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla.

Have you scen any thing of the butter knife, George? Husband—Hold! Keep your hand steady where it is; now close your fingers, and you have it. Wife—I'm the goose, I should think! But what do.you think of it, George? Why, 1 can’t believe that Annie really has a little girl.

George—come home early, won’t you?—Puck. ° _ or Oo ¥ TOO MUCH MARRYING. Unsuitable Marriages the Most Prolific Source of Trouble, The truth is—and it is the truth that many are beginning to realize, nor will it-be conjured away until all rightminded men and women give it some serious thought—there is too much marrying and giving in marriage in the world. By far the greater number of young girls of the present day are raised with the sole ambition of ‘‘making a good match,” as if the quintessence of happiness in life was to be found in matrimony. The author is not an ‘‘old maid,” to use the current expression, and she has no intentions of boasting when she says she might try her own experience in married life did she wish to do so, but she can assure her readers that no feeling of ‘‘sour grapes’’ influenced her opinion that -more unhappiness results from unsuitable marriages than. from any other evil in existence; that men and women marrying from the wrong motives invariably bring affliction upon themselves and their children, and that therefore the Hymeneal flame should not be lighted except under circumstances of peculiar promise. Men and women should both remain unmarried until they have reached an age when intelligence and common sense prevail over impulse; but even then let them look carefully into their own reasons for taking so important astep. Let them lay their day dreams aside and face a cold and conventional reality, and thus, with a heart prepared for the bitter or the sweet, with @ mind resolved to make many sacrifices and a temper inclined only to look on the brighter side of life, they may prove to be the exceptional couple, and, like the blissful lovers in our old fairy tales, “live long and happily forever.’’—Eunice Stewart, in Washn Post. : pee fhe gave them Castoria, saw her lakt, and she looked .
