Surprise Party. Thursday evening nearly ‘four-score young ladies and gentlemen assembled at the home of Migs Ida Alen in this city and from there went to the residence of R. G. McCutchan at Canada Hill to pay their respects to Miss Emma McCutchan and Miss Jennie Sigler of Visalia who is here on a visit to Miss Emma. The visit was a surprise to the young ladies,» but the guests were cordially received and spent a very pleasent evening. A wide variety of games were indulged in, and refreshments were served. A visit was paid during the evening to the electric light plant at the Charonnat mine, and the modus operandi of the machinery’s working was fully explained by the gentleman in charge. It was considerably after midnight when the visitors returned to town. Bothersome Cows. Stray cows are creating much trouble about town. When they roath at large at night any citizen has the right to drive them to the pound, or if they break into yards during the daytime the same disposition can be made of them.

LAND BOOMS. The Sensible Rules That Neva do County Works Hers Under. are being conducted on a safe and sensible basis, without the feverish excitement that prevails in some other sections, and as a result “her era of Prosperity is coming to stay. The San Francisco Alta makes some excellent suggestions on the ubject, and itis needless to say that the principles advocated by the Alta are such as govern Nevada county’s boom : “‘Landowners should. be careful_ of seeking margins by accepting percentages from speculatcrs. Theland boom in Central and Northern California should not try to begin where Los Angeles leaves off. It is better to creep before walking, and to walk-before running. We have said, andre ready for its diurnal repetition if necessary, that the State needs people, not prices, and this end is defeated by crowding rural lands up to great prices. Ifland transactions are confined toactual urchase, for which cash passes, there is no danger, but when it becomes solely a matter of margins, the intrinsic value is lost sight of,and that is what the immigrant comes here to find out. The man who puts up a depusit and’ takes an option on land, is operating precisely as if he were putting up a margin on stock or dealing in grain options. He is betting the amount of his deposit that the price will advanée before his option exp res., It is ‘the duty of the press to discourage this kind of operation, while it sustains ‘ruthfully and strongly the legitimate values of California lands. More people, more prcduction, more tonnage or rail and water transportation,more hands to éarn,, mouths to feed, backs to clothe, citizens to vote, éhildren t educate, souls to save—these are the real needs of California, and the boom that does not supply them is a bubble. that will burst without permanent benefit to anyone. We insist that so far prices of city and suburban real estate have not reached the maximum of legitimate value, based upon the access of population which the State should receive in the next. two years. But present values must be justified by the proper. offering’ at reasonable prices of rural property for use by producers. This advice is for the boome. 8, the optionists, the speculators, and all their interest: focus upon the one of more people. If they a!l heed what we say, there will be no collapse. If not there will be one that will give the State a backset more disastrous than it has yet had. Therefore, speculative brethren, go slow and drive in the middle of the road.” j ——+09 Fred Bradley Discharged. The preliminary examination of Fred Bradley, superintendent of the Spanish mine in Washington district, on a charge of grand larceny in stealing six hundred dollars’ worth of amalgam, took place before Justice Wadsworth at this city yesterday afternoon, and resulted in the defendant being honorably discharged. District Attorney Long appeared for the people and Messrs. Gaylord & Searls for the accused. The first witness was Mr. White, the Sheriffs keeper, who had charge of the amalgam alleged to have been stolen, and who was the complaining witness. He said that when he found the bullion was gone from the stove in Bradley’s office where he had put it and afterwards so informed Bradley (he misunderstanding his duties as keeper and thinking Bradley had as much charge of it'as_ himself) he was much excited. This excitement led him to cause the arrest. He was one of the men who found the amalgam in its original condition in Bradley’s room after the arrest, Bradley having given them a diagram showing just where it was hidden in the bedsprings. Under Sheriff Holland and David Johnson also testified as to the finding ofthe bullion. Mr. Bradley testified that on starting for San Francisco in response to a summons, he deemed it necessary to lock up the building, and not considering the stove a save place to leave the gold hid it in his bed. He considered it was in his charge as much asin Mr. White’s, as he had been alone with it most of the nights. He left Thursday, saying he would return Saturday. Justice Wadsworth said: “It appears by the evidence that there is no cause to believe the defendant guilty of any crime, as there is no evidence here showing any guilt. If he had informed the keeper of the whereabouts of the amalgam, all this trouble would have been avoided. I order the defendant discharged.” n See et act Se Don’t Experiment.

Each character was well taken, and from: the first they succeeded in making their audience appreciate their efforts. W. A. Brady’ as. “Seth Preene’”’ became at Once a great favorite. His get up was comical, and he did the repenting villain to perfection. Geo, P. Webster as “Harold Armytage,” the Squire’s son, and J. W. MeConnell as “‘Clifford Armytage,’’ threw a gcod deal of life into the play, and were quite at home on the stage. In the scene where Harold is accused of the murder of his father and the robbery of the jewels his acting was most effective. G. T. Stevens as “Pat Murphy,” an Irish policeman, was fair. W. H. West ‘as “Joe Jarvis” and Miss Margaret Marshall as.‘‘Mrs. Jarvis” were most comical. Miss Charlotte Tittel: 4s “Bessmarks”’ and Muss Laura Biggar as ‘‘ Hettie Preene’’ deserve special mention. If we are to judge by the applause that-greeted them their efforts were appreciated. In Miss Biggar’s representation of Shakespeare she wori well merited applause, and was welcomed back warmly toa city where she has a host. of friends. Miss Tittel was at her best in.the scene where Harold and Clifford met man to man. She has a way of winning her audience that most actresses have not. Miss. Nellie Dozier as ‘‘Sal’”’ did the little ‘she had to do in such a manner.as to please the audience. Railroad Time Table.

Picnic for the Orphans. The Grass Valley Union says: The children of the Girls’ Orphan Asylum wenton a pienic excursion Thursday to Storm’s Station. They made upa full car-load, and they looked bright and happy as they left the station for th irdays outing. The party was in charge of several of the Sisters of Mercy conuected with tha Agylvm. President Kidder of the Narrow Gauge generously made it a free excursion for the orphans. if Exceedingly Rich Quartz, Tidings: John Trenberth & Co. , tributers of the New Rocky Bir mine, yesterday had a-clean-up from -three and one-half loads of ore. The. yield Was.$399 per load—about'$254 per ton. The ore was of speciman Rature and came from a small ledge in the MceMullen ground, now a rt of the Rocky Bar, and there is meee of it. A Soapstone Quarry. There is in Grass Valley township, this county, a quarry of soapstone. Che material when first exposed to the air is so soft that it can be easily cut with acase-knife, bats after being exposed to the air for awhile it becom as hard as granite.

Says Mr. Hoffman in the RecordUnion: The soil of Nevada county varies, as its character depends much upon the formation of the bedrock and the topography of the country. of it, where the granite bedrock is near the surface, looks sterile, but experience has demonstrated that it .is rich in. chemical elements which are essential to the healthy growth of trees and vines. The soil may be divided into four varieties : ‘ First—A soil composed of granite and alluvial soil, and having the qualities mentioned above. Second—The loamy soil of the hillsides, which, in its original state, is covered by trees'and chaparral. When cleared and cultivated it yields largely, and is specially adapted to, the wants of the orchardists, being easily tilled and free from stones. Third—Same-as the foregoing, with a mixture of bowlders, and loose rock, but when properly worked becomes valuable land and orchards planted in this soil attain a healthy and vigorous growth. Fourth—Good . soil for the vineyardist, having a slaty formation and bedrock. Even the barren bedrock of the workedout gravel mines can be made to sustain plant and tree growths and yield handsome returns. About 25,000 acres are “adapted to agriculture and horticulture. For the general farmer the foothill region or “belt”? possesses many attractions. The diversity of the soil is un advantage which should not be overlooked, as it enables ‘he farmer toadapt it to the growing of different crops, the principal crop, however, being from $18 to $25 per ton, according to the. kind and quality. Oat, rye and wheat hay yield from two to four tons per acre, without any irrigation being reyuired. A great deal cf red clover, timothy, and alfafa hay is grown on irrigated lands) and are the most marketable hays produced. Three crops are cut annually, and the yield is enomous, going to seven and eight tons to the acre. In some localities, where the water supply is ample and the soil rich, the yield has often been greater, and, as before i stated, the soil is rich and the water supply is ample. The grazing lands of Nevada county comprise 200,000 acres. Among the foothills there is an abundance of water, large tracts for pasturage, an abundance of grass, mild winters, and the stock-raiser finds that little protection for his cattle, sheep and horses is required 3a shed generally being all that is needed except in exceptional seasons. In stimmer large herds are driven-into'the Higher mountains,near Cisco and Emigrant Gap, and thrive there till autumn.’ Choice breeds of cattle have been introduced in many localities, and this tendency is increasing. The Seventeenth District Agricultural Fair, which is held in September of. each year at Glenbrook, between Nevada City and Grass Valley, has done much to aid in this direction. Potatoes, corn, squashes, ‘pumpkina,and small fruits yield well, than settlein this region. There.is a steady. and_.growingdemand for all fruits raised in this county; owing to the excellence of the fruit, and its good transporting qualities, it has become famous throughout the South and East. Bartlett pears shipped from this county to Chicago, New York and other distant points have been received in a perfect state of preservation, and sold at an advanced rate. The Bartlett pears grown in this county are unexcelled for size, flavor and shipping qualities,. and many large orchards are successfully grown. Other pears do as well, but the Bartlett is, without dispute, the king of pears in this section. Apples grown in the middle or snow belt are of good flavor, and large consignments to Eastern dealers are made yearly. Prunes, peaches and other fruits, and all vegetables, thrive and reach maturity with unequaled excellence. Perhaps the surest and most lucrative crop which can be grown is the potato, as the demand is always far ahead of the supply. The soil is, in many places, adapted to the cultivation and growth of the potato, and those who have undertaken the cultivation of this staple article of food have met with uniform suceess, and there is no reason why potato culture eannot be made one of the, most profitable of all ventures by the general farmer. Grape culture thrives:in the foothill and snow horticultural belt, and is never attacked by phylloxera, the red spider and black scale. The adaptability of the soil and climate to the grape has been repeatedly tested for many years, and now the business of vinegrowing bids fair to become one of the, if not. the, principal industry—of-the county. Every farm has its vineyard, some of them~being very large, and producing yearly large quantities of excellent wine. H.L. Hatch, of Indian Springs, harvests annually from eight to ten tons of grapes per acre and produces a first-class article of wine. Mildew ia the only ‘‘pest”” which the vineyardist has to contend with, and a light application of sulphur to the yines is generally sufficient to stop its ravages in an effectual manner. For those who object to wine-making there are localities in the foothill belt which are adapted to the growing and curing of grapes:for raisins, and these raisins find a ready market. As an illustration of what is being done in this line a visit to the farm of Niles & Marsh, two miles above Mooney Flat, will be worth the attention of the traveler who wishes to engage in business. There are several large and well Q Much } the most noted being ‘ that Felix Gillet, of Nevada City, and generally known as Barren Hill -nursery, a description of ;which will be given in another letter. The nursery a valuable ‘property and is known as the Ophir Hill Nursery. Allison’s orchard is also a valuable property.

Don’t Laugh at Nervous People. Their sufferings are very real, although you, with your vigorous physique and strong nerves, can scareely believe it, Rather suggest the use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters which, in removing every trace of dyspepsia, and regulating the liver and bowels, strikes at and extirpates the most prolific cause of chronic nervous trouble. That nervous-shattering disease, fever'and ague, is among the formidable ailments, tothe removal of which this genial remedy is specially adapted. Nervous prostration, resulting from prolonged mental or physical éffort, is also a state of the system where there the intervention of this tonic is very desirable, more particularly as its use is to. quiet and relax the tension of over-wrought nerves. The Bitters are invaluable in rheumatism, neuralgia and kidney troubles. Employ no substitute for it, ——F +9 Ge Auction Sale of Groceries, Liguors, Glass and Tinware.

LAND BOOMS. The Sensible Rules That Neva do County Works Hers Under. are being conducted on a safe and sensible basis, without the feverish excitement that prevails in some other sections, and as a result “her era of Prosperity is coming to stay. The San Francisco Alta makes some excellent suggestions on the ubject, and itis needless to say that the principles advocated by the Alta are such as govern Nevada county’s boom : “‘Landowners should. be careful_ of seeking margins by accepting percentages from speculatcrs. Theland boom in Central and Northern California should not try to begin where Los Angeles leaves off. It is better to creep before walking, and to walk-before running. We have said, andre ready for its diurnal repetition if necessary, that the State needs people, not prices, and this end is defeated by crowding rural lands up to great prices. Ifland transactions are confined toactual urchase, for which cash passes, there is no danger, but when it becomes solely a matter of margins, the intrinsic value is lost sight of,and that is what the immigrant comes here to find out. The man who puts up a depusit and’ takes an option on land, is operating precisely as if he were putting up a margin on stock or dealing in grain options. He is betting the amount of his deposit that the price will advanée before his option exp res., It is ‘the duty of the press to discourage this kind of operation, while it sustains ‘ruthfully and strongly the legitimate values of California lands. More people, more prcduction, more tonnage or rail and water transportation,more hands to éarn,, mouths to feed, backs to clothe, citizens to vote, éhildren t educate, souls to save—these are the real needs of California, and the boom that does not supply them is a bubble. that will burst without permanent benefit to anyone. We insist that so far prices of city and suburban real estate have not reached the maximum of legitimate value, based upon the access of population which the State should receive in the next. two years. But present values must be justified by the proper. offering’ at reasonable prices of rural property for use by producers. This advice is for the boome. 8, the optionists, the speculators, and all their interest: focus upon the one of more people. If they a!l heed what we say, there will be no collapse. If not there will be one that will give the State a backset more disastrous than it has yet had. Therefore, speculative brethren, go slow and drive in the middle of the road.” j ——+09 Fred Bradley Discharged. The preliminary examination of Fred Bradley, superintendent of the Spanish mine in Washington district, on a charge of grand larceny in stealing six hundred dollars’ worth of amalgam, took place before Justice Wadsworth at this city yesterday afternoon, and resulted in the defendant being honorably discharged. District Attorney Long appeared for the people and Messrs. Gaylord & Searls for the accused. The first witness was Mr. White, the Sheriffs keeper, who had charge of the amalgam alleged to have been stolen, and who was the complaining witness. He said that when he found the bullion was gone from the stove in Bradley’s office where he had put it and afterwards so informed Bradley (he misunderstanding his duties as keeper and thinking Bradley had as much charge of it'as_ himself) he was much excited. This excitement led him to cause the arrest. He was one of the men who found the amalgam in its original condition in Bradley’s room after the arrest, Bradley having given them a diagram showing just where it was hidden in the bedsprings. Under Sheriff Holland and David Johnson also testified as to the finding ofthe bullion. Mr. Bradley testified that on starting for San Francisco in response to a summons, he deemed it necessary to lock up the building, and not considering the stove a save place to leave the gold hid it in his bed. He considered it was in his charge as much asin Mr. White’s, as he had been alone with it most of the nights. He left Thursday, saying he would return Saturday. Justice Wadsworth said: “It appears by the evidence that there is no cause to believe the defendant guilty of any crime, as there is no evidence here showing any guilt. If he had informed the keeper of the whereabouts of the amalgam, all this trouble would have been avoided. I order the defendant discharged.” n See et act Se Don’t Experiment.

Each character was well taken, and from: the first they succeeded in making their audience appreciate their efforts. W. A. Brady’ as. “Seth Preene’”’ became at Once a great favorite. His get up was comical, and he did the repenting villain to perfection. Geo, P. Webster as “Harold Armytage,” the Squire’s son, and J. W. MeConnell as “‘Clifford Armytage,’’ threw a gcod deal of life into the play, and were quite at home on the stage. In the scene where Harold is accused of the murder of his father and the robbery of the jewels his acting was most effective. G. T. Stevens as “Pat Murphy,” an Irish policeman, was fair. W. H. West ‘as “Joe Jarvis” and Miss Margaret Marshall as.‘‘Mrs. Jarvis” were most comical. Miss Charlotte Tittel: 4s “Bessmarks”’ and Muss Laura Biggar as ‘‘ Hettie Preene’’ deserve special mention. If we are to judge by the applause that-greeted them their efforts were appreciated. In Miss Biggar’s representation of Shakespeare she wori well merited applause, and was welcomed back warmly toa city where she has a host. of friends. Miss Tittel was at her best in.the scene where Harold and Clifford met man to man. She has a way of winning her audience that most actresses have not. Miss. Nellie Dozier as ‘‘Sal’”’ did the little ‘she had to do in such a manner.as to please the audience. Railroad Time Table.

Picnic for the Orphans. The Grass Valley Union says: The children of the Girls’ Orphan Asylum wenton a pienic excursion Thursday to Storm’s Station. They made upa full car-load, and they looked bright and happy as they left the station for th irdays outing. The party was in charge of several of the Sisters of Mercy conuected with tha Agylvm. President Kidder of the Narrow Gauge generously made it a free excursion for the orphans. if Exceedingly Rich Quartz, Tidings: John Trenberth & Co. , tributers of the New Rocky Bir mine, yesterday had a-clean-up from -three and one-half loads of ore. The. yield Was.$399 per load—about'$254 per ton. The ore was of speciman Rature and came from a small ledge in the MceMullen ground, now a rt of the Rocky Bar, and there is meee of it. A Soapstone Quarry. There is in Grass Valley township, this county, a quarry of soapstone. Che material when first exposed to the air is so soft that it can be easily cut with acase-knife, bats after being exposed to the air for awhile it becom as hard as granite.

Says Mr. Hoffman in the RecordUnion: The soil of Nevada county varies, as its character depends much upon the formation of the bedrock and the topography of the country. of it, where the granite bedrock is near the surface, looks sterile, but experience has demonstrated that it .is rich in. chemical elements which are essential to the healthy growth of trees and vines. The soil may be divided into four varieties : ‘ First—A soil composed of granite and alluvial soil, and having the qualities mentioned above. Second—The loamy soil of the hillsides, which, in its original state, is covered by trees'and chaparral. When cleared and cultivated it yields largely, and is specially adapted to, the wants of the orchardists, being easily tilled and free from stones. Third—Same-as the foregoing, with a mixture of bowlders, and loose rock, but when properly worked becomes valuable land and orchards planted in this soil attain a healthy and vigorous growth. Fourth—Good . soil for the vineyardist, having a slaty formation and bedrock. Even the barren bedrock of the workedout gravel mines can be made to sustain plant and tree growths and yield handsome returns. About 25,000 acres are “adapted to agriculture and horticulture. For the general farmer the foothill region or “belt”? possesses many attractions. The diversity of the soil is un advantage which should not be overlooked, as it enables ‘he farmer toadapt it to the growing of different crops, the principal crop, however, being from $18 to $25 per ton, according to the. kind and quality. Oat, rye and wheat hay yield from two to four tons per acre, without any irrigation being reyuired. A great deal cf red clover, timothy, and alfafa hay is grown on irrigated lands) and are the most marketable hays produced. Three crops are cut annually, and the yield is enomous, going to seven and eight tons to the acre. In some localities, where the water supply is ample and the soil rich, the yield has often been greater, and, as before i stated, the soil is rich and the water supply is ample. The grazing lands of Nevada county comprise 200,000 acres. Among the foothills there is an abundance of water, large tracts for pasturage, an abundance of grass, mild winters, and the stock-raiser finds that little protection for his cattle, sheep and horses is required 3a shed generally being all that is needed except in exceptional seasons. In stimmer large herds are driven-into'the Higher mountains,near Cisco and Emigrant Gap, and thrive there till autumn.’ Choice breeds of cattle have been introduced in many localities, and this tendency is increasing. The Seventeenth District Agricultural Fair, which is held in September of. each year at Glenbrook, between Nevada City and Grass Valley, has done much to aid in this direction. Potatoes, corn, squashes, ‘pumpkina,and small fruits yield well, than settlein this region. There.is a steady. and_.growingdemand for all fruits raised in this county; owing to the excellence of the fruit, and its good transporting qualities, it has become famous throughout the South and East. Bartlett pears shipped from this county to Chicago, New York and other distant points have been received in a perfect state of preservation, and sold at an advanced rate. The Bartlett pears grown in this county are unexcelled for size, flavor and shipping qualities,. and many large orchards are successfully grown. Other pears do as well, but the Bartlett is, without dispute, the king of pears in this section. Apples grown

in the middle or snow belt are of good flavor, and large consignments to Eastern dealers are made yearly. Prunes, peaches and other fruits, and all vegetables, thrive and reach maturity with unequaled excellence. Perhaps the surest and most lucrative crop which can be grown is the potato, as the demand is always far ahead of the supply. The soil is, in many places, adapted to the cultivation and growth of the potato, and those who have undertaken the cultivation of this staple article of food have met with uniform suceess, and there is no reason why potato culture eannot be made one of the, most profitable of all ventures by the general farmer. Grape culture thrives:in the foothill and snow horticultural belt, and is never attacked by phylloxera, the red spider and black scale. The adaptability of the soil and climate to the grape has been repeatedly tested for many years, and now the business of vinegrowing bids fair to become one of the, if not. the, principal industry—of-the county. Every farm has its vineyard, some of them~being very large, and producing yearly large quantities of excellent wine. H.L. Hatch, of Indian Springs, harvests annually from eight to ten tons of grapes per acre and produces a first-class article of wine. Mildew ia the only ‘‘pest”” which the vineyardist has to contend with, and a light application of sulphur to the yines is generally sufficient to stop its ravages in an effectual manner. For those who object to wine-making there are localities in the foothill belt which are adapted to the growing and curing of grapes:for raisins, and these raisins find a ready market. As an illustration of what is being done in this line a visit to the farm of Niles & Marsh, two miles above Mooney Flat, will be worth the attention of the traveler who wishes to engage in business. There are several large and well Q Much } the most noted being ‘ that Felix Gillet, of Nevada City, and generally known as Barren Hill -nursery, a description of ;which will be given in another letter. The nursery a valuable ‘property and is known as the Ophir Hill Nursery. Allison’s orchard is also a valuable property.

Don’t Laugh at Nervous People. Their sufferings are very real, although you, with your vigorous physique and strong nerves, can scareely believe it, Rather suggest the use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters which, in removing every trace of dyspepsia, and regulating the liver and bowels, strikes at and extirpates the most prolific cause of chronic nervous trouble. That nervous-shattering disease, fever'and ague, is among the formidable ailments, tothe removal of which this genial remedy is specially adapted. Nervous prostration, resulting from prolonged mental or physical éffort, is also a state of the system where there the intervention of this tonic is very desirable, more particularly as its use is to. quiet and relax the tension of over-wrought nerves. The Bitters are invaluable in rheumatism, neuralgia and kidney troubles. Employ no substitute for it, ——F +9 Ge Auction Sale of Groceries, Liguors, Glass and Tinware.
