Mining Items. P. Foley & Co. have made-an immensely rich strike at the old California quartz mine near Graniteville. They ran under the former workings and hays developed a twel ve-foot ledge of qpdrtz thit is heavy with free gold. @ California was in early times a eavy producer, but for some years until within a recent period it has been idle. Itis now turning out immense quantities of gold. Good pay-gravel is being taken from the Valentine drift mining. claim at Lowell Hill. This property is owned chiefly by Messrs. Gould and Faust, of San Francisco. John Dower is erecting hoisting machinery upon his quartz mining claim on Piety Hill, this city. Several crushings from this claim have yielded well, justifying Mr. Dower in going to some expense to develop it. [n 1857 this ledge was located by Wagoner It was purchased by Hughes, Lovey & Co., who afterwards bonded it to fT. W. Sigourney. Some goud quartz was take» from the mine, but it was abandoned on account of heavy expenses incurred in working ore in early days. A few years ago Me. Dower relocated the ledge and now it isa good paying property. How Lew Thompson Died. Ep:Tor Trans rirt—The published tements that’ Lew Thompson was found dead in « cabin near the Central House, and that he died from the effects of liquor, are false. The facts ure that he died in the Central House, and there was*not a drop of liquor in his stomach at tiie time. He came from work at six o’clock in the evening, ate a hearty supper, went to bed at half-past eight, and witen I galled him at six o’clock next moruing he Now, sir, had the Coroner done his duty he would have reported the facts as told him by me. a F, UV.

Duplicates can 25 cents <a mildness of our foot-hill climate, than the sub-tropical fruita which are successfully grown in Nevala county. It is now a de :.onstrable fact that there are large areas_of-land in the western and southern portion of the county -which-are-well-adapted—to the growth of the olive. : These facts are strikingly set. forth in the following extract from a private letter received by a gentleman in this city from S.-J. Segerstrand, a horticulturist residing near Smartsville> Mr. 8. is fumiliar with olive culture it Europe, and ‘speaks from experien e both in Europe and among our own ‘foot-hills. Hesays: There are but few places on the g'obe where the olive will grow. with success. It will not flourish in any climate;where the temperature {alls below 14 degrees Farenheit, nor where it remaihs below 18-deyrees for any protracted time, Olive cuiture.is proving a success-in this State, and it is a matter of surprise that so little atten-. tion lias been p.id to it heretofore, as the o ive is ane of the most protitable fruits that can be grown. The tree is hardy. It:will grow und even flourish in a climate too cold for tie culture of the orange. The olive tre: will grow in a soil toodry to raise oranges without-irrigation. “[he trees will grow on the top of the hi Is and among the rocks where. there is little suil, and are only injuriously affected by the climate in” places where the thermometer rises above 120. degrees, and where it sinks below from 14 to 18 degrees. Farenheit. Thereis not any other kind of fruit tree which requires sg little cultivation, but if the olive tree gets the same amount of cultivation as other fruit trees it will yield larger returns than other fruits under similar treatment. Its products will find a market all over the world. 3 The trees can easily be. grown from cuttings, but. for this altitude and climate it is better to plant rcoted trees. Che trees commence bearing four or live years after planting, and produce a large crop every year. The yield ot the trees increase until they ure 25 years old, when they reach their maximum fruitfulness.~ Lf the young trees are properly cared for after planting they wiil produce frow five to ten yallons of berries when they ure six years: old. ‘The trees should be planied 25 feet apart. It is seldom that we can get pure olive oil in this country. ‘The pure article always © mmands a hizh price. The imported oil is usually mixture of olive oil with cheaper oiis. There is not enough olive oil produced in all the olive growing countries tu supply the market. A few acres planted in ofives is as good an investment asa gold mine. Several orchardists in this State have madeas high as $1,000 an acre from a single year’s crop of olives. ‘here is no danger of overstocking the market, From the foregoing extract itis evident that in the near, future the olive and pure olive oil will be added to the list of the varied products of our foothill lands. In the vicinity of Nevada City, Grass Valley and San Juan the altitude is too great for its culture, but about French Corral, Bridgepurt, Indian Springs, Lime Kiln, and other places, the temperature und surroundings are all favorable. Without Irrigation. Can we raise profitable crops of fruit in Nevada county without irrigation 2 Certainly wecan! ‘The experiment of yrowing grape vines and orchard trees without irrigation has been tried 30 Many times, and on a variety of svils, with.such uniform success that it-has ceased to be an experimental problem with us. There are today, along this foothill belt of fruit lands, hundreds of acres of vineyards and orchard in thrifty and healthy growth, which receive no water from one year’s end till another, except that which fallg directly on the land from the clouds. Thorough cultivation and a judicious care of the soil do the rest. A Sad Mistake. According to the Messenger, there was a sad mistake made the other night at Prof. Michell’s dancing ‘school in Downieville.® The Professor was teaching the German, and got to. the part where the pupils divide into two lines, when he ordered the gentlemen to rush for their original partners and kiss them if they could. The ladies misunderstood the order and the rush of the ludies on the gentlemen seemed to paralyze them, as the ladies fell intotheir arms, with their lips ready for a kiss. The gentlemen took advantage of the mistake. a Don’t Experiment. You cannot afford to waste time in experimenting when your lungs are in danger. onaunEyon always seems at first, only a cold. Do not permit any dealer to impose upon you with some cheap imitation of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Colds and Coughs, but be sure you get the genuine. Because he can-make more profit he may tell you he has ~ something just as good, or_just_t_e—same. Don’t be deceived, but insist upon getting Dr. King’s New Discovery, which is guaranteed to give relief in all Throat, Lung and Chest affections. Trial bottles free at Carr Bros.’ Drugstore.

The Sierra City Tribune says: ‘‘The Dairy Txanscurrr is striving in its usual energetic way to create a boom for Nevada county, and Nevada City in particular. Nevada county possesses more real, merit to build up a boom on than many of the southern counties, over which such a how! is being raised at the presenttime.—_When-the boom reaehes Nevada county, as it surely will, then a big effort will be made to coax it up this way. Sierra county folks are not making mach fuss about it, but at the same time we who live here know that more’ gold can be.delved out of these hills in five years than could be realized from the entire crops of the State! in that, time. We have the foundation here for such a boom as will make the granger turn green with envy. The boom will get here, too, and don’t you forget it.”’ Protect Your Property. As is usual in Fair time, quite a del= egation of thieves and pickpockets have come to town and will endeavor this week to realize as much as possible from unwary residents. There were several burglaries in town during the progress of the last Fair, and there will be more this year if caution 1s not exercised, Citizens should not leave their houses unprotected day or night. They should keep their doors ana windows locked after dark, and manage to have a gun or revolver handy so to give a warm -reception to trespassers. Bucklen’s Arnica Saive.

They expect to remain on figuring on the"nrofits of the pear crop, and the results are somewhat surprising even to our locai orchadists. For instance, John Ducray piceed and marketed 1,500 pounds of pears ifm two trees growing’ in his ‘bedrock’ garden at Nevada City. Mr, Peabody, living néar the railway in Grass Valley townsh p, picked 1,200 pounds of Bartlett pears from three trees,the trees growing in uncultivated ground and having been untrimmed or cared for for several years. John lodda, hurseryma et Grass. Valley, marketed last year, 26-boxes of pears from a single tree 12 years old, ‘the boxes weighing 40 pounds each. Felix Gillet so'd $11 worth of pears from a sin= gle Cleuigeau pear tree last year. The tree is less than 15 years old, and is growing in his Barren Hil nursery. KE, Booth sold 130 boxes of pears from 18 trees growing in liis orchard at Nevada, a majority of the trees being small and having only recently commenced bearing. The largest yield was 900 pounds from a tree 12. years old, the average of all “the trees, large and small, being 350 pounds of pears to each tres, These pears were sold at Hg cents per Ib. on the tree, and the owner received $2.50 per day for picking the fruit in additidn to that 88 the fruit was. ready for shipment. Like results were realized by all the orchardists of Nevada and Grass Valley who marketed their fruit. Catching Stranded Trout. List Saturday’ the’ water in the South Yuba Company’s lower ditch was shut off to permit of the repairing of a flume, and numerous parties who went from the county seat captured some fish up this.si le. of Quaker Hill. B. F. Hedden and W. T.

Hedden-and Morgan were 80. alarmed. over the mater that they their catch away to“tess conscient'ous people. Joseph Thomas, R.’C. Walrath, J. V. Hunter, John Spaulding and other gentlemen were up the ditch with a big barrel in a wagon, and eatching a lot of trout brought them alive to the reservoir on Mr. Thomas’sranch where the prisoners were turned loose.

Their sufferings are very real, although you, with your vigorous physique and strong nerves, can scarcely 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 effort, is also astate of the system where there the. intervention of this tonic is very desirable, more particularly as its use is to quiét and relax the tension of over-wrought nerves, The Bitters are invaluable in rheumatism, neuralgia and kidney. troubles.

Mining Items. P. Foley & Co. have made-an immensely rich strike at the old California quartz mine near Graniteville. They ran under the former workings and hays developed a twel ve-foot ledge of qpdrtz thit is heavy with free gold. @ California was in early times a eavy producer, but for some years until within a recent period it has been idle. Itis now turning out immense quantities of gold. Good pay-gravel is being taken from the Valentine drift mining. claim at Lowell Hill. This property is owned chiefly by Messrs. Gould and Faust, of San Francisco. John Dower is erecting hoisting machinery upon his quartz mining claim on Piety Hill, this city. Several crushings from this claim have yielded well, justifying Mr. Dower in going to some expense to develop it. [n 1857 this ledge was located by Wagoner It was purchased by Hughes, Lovey & Co., who afterwards bonded it to fT. W. Sigourney. Some goud quartz was take» from the mine, but it was abandoned on account of heavy expenses incurred in working ore in early days. A few years ago Me. Dower relocated the ledge and now it isa good paying property. How Lew Thompson Died.

It is now a de :.onstrable fact that there are large areas_of-land in the western and southern portion of the county -which-are-well-adapted—to the growth of the olive. : These facts are strikingly set. forth in the following extract from a private letter received by a gentleman in this city from S.-J. Segerstrand, a horticulturist residing near Smartsville> Mr. 8. is fumiliar with olive culture it Europe, and ‘speaks from experien e both in Europe and among our own ‘foot-hills. Hesays: There are but few places on the g'obe where the olive will grow. with success. It will not flourish in any climate;where the temperature {alls below 14 degrees Farenheit, nor where it remaihs below 18-deyrees for any protracted time, Olive cuiture.is proving a success-in this State, and it is a matter of surprise that so little atten-. tion lias been p.id to it heretofore, as the o ive is ane of the most protitable fruits that can be grown. The tree is hardy. It:will grow und even flourish in a climate too cold for tie culture of the orange. The olive tre: will grow in a soil toodry to raise oranges without-irrigation. “[he trees will grow on the top of the hi Is and among the rocks where. there is little suil, and are only injuriously affected by the climate in” places where the thermometer rises above 120. degrees, and where it sinks below from 14 to 18 degrees. Farenheit. Thereis not any other kind of fruit tree which requires sg little cultivation, but if the olive tree gets the same amount of cultivation as other fruit trees it will yield larger returns than other fruits under similar treatment. Its products will find a market all over the world. 3 The trees can easily be. grown from cuttings, but. for this altitude and climate it is better to plant rcoted trees. Che trees commence bearing four or live years after planting, and produce a large crop every year. The yield ot the trees increase until they ure 25 years old, when they reach their maximum fruitfulness.~ Lf the young trees are properly cared for after planting they wiil produce frow five to ten yallons of berries when they ure six years: old. ‘The trees should be planied 25 feet apart. It is seldom that we can get pure olive oil in this country. ‘The pure article always © mmands a hizh price. The imported oil is usually mixture of olive oil with cheaper oiis. There is not enough olive oil produced in all the olive growing countries tu supply the market. A few acres planted in ofives is as good an investment asa gold mine. Several orchardists in this State have madeas high as $1,000 an acre from a single year’s crop of olives. ‘here is no danger of overstocking the market, From the foregoing extract itis evident that in the near, future the olive and pure olive oil will be added to the list of the varied products of our foothill lands. In the vicinity of Nevada City, Grass Valley and San Juan the altitude is too great for its culture, but about French Corral, Bridgepurt, Indian Springs, Lime Kiln, and other places, the temperature und surroundings are all favorable. Without Irrigation. Can we raise profitable crops of fruit in Nevada county without irrigation 2 Certainly wecan! ‘The experiment of yrowing grape vines and orchard trees without irrigation has been tried 30 Many times, and on a variety of svils, with.such uniform success that it-has ceased to be an experimental problem with us. There are today, along this foothill belt of fruit lands, hundreds of acres of vineyards and orchard in thrifty and healthy growth, which receive no water from one year’s end till another, except that which fallg directly on the land from the clouds. Thorough cultivation and a judicious care of the soil do the rest. A Sad Mistake. According to the Messenger, there was a sad mistake made the other night at Prof. Michell’s dancing ‘school in Downieville.® The Professor was teaching the German, and got to. the part where the pupils divide into two lines, when he ordered the gentlemen to rush for their original partners and kiss them if they could. The ladies misunderstood the order and the rush of the ludies on the gentlemen seemed to paralyze them, as the ladies fell intotheir arms, with their lips ready for a kiss. The gentlemen took advantage of the mistake. a Don’t Experiment. You cannot afford to waste time in experimenting when your lungs are in danger. onaunEyon always seems at first, only a cold. Do not permit any dealer to impose upon you with some cheap imitation of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, Colds and Coughs, but be sure you get the genuine. Because he can-make more profit he may tell you he has ~ something just as good, or_just_t_e—same.

The Sierra City Tribune says: ‘‘The Dairy Txanscurrr is striving in its usual energetic way to create a boom for Nevada county, and Nevada City in particular. Nevada county possesses more real, merit to build up a boom on than many of the southern counties, over which such a how! is being raised at the presenttime.—_When-the boom reaehes Nevada county, as it surely will, then a big effort will be made to coax it up this way. Sierra county folks are not making mach fuss about it, but at the same time we who live here know that more’ gold can be.delved out of these hills in five years than could be realized from the entire crops of the State! in that, time. We have the foundation here for such a boom as will make the granger turn green with envy. The boom will get here, too, and don’t you forget it.”’ Protect Your Property.

They expect to remain on figuring on the"nrofits of the pear crop, and the results are somewhat surprising even to our locai orchadists. For instance, John Ducray piceed and marketed 1,500 pounds of pears ifm two trees growing’ in his ‘bedrock’ garden at Nevada City. Mr, Peabody, living néar the railway in Grass Valley townsh p, picked 1,200 pounds of Bartlett pears from three trees,the trees growing in uncultivated ground and having been untrimmed or cared for for several years. John lodda, hurseryma et Grass. Valley, marketed last year, 26-boxes of pears from a single tree 12 years old, ‘the boxes weighing 40 pounds each. Felix Gillet so'd $11 worth of pears from a sin= gle Cleuigeau pear tree last year. The tree is less than 15 years old, and is growing in his Barren Hil nursery. KE, Booth sold 130 boxes of pears from 18 trees growing in liis orchard at Nevada, a majority of the trees being small and having only recently commenced bearing. The largest yield was 900 pounds from a tree 12. years old, the average of all “the trees, large and small, being 350 pounds of pears to each tres, These pears were sold at Hg cents per Ib. on the tree, and the owner received $2.50 per day for picking the fruit in additidn to that 88 the fruit was. ready for shipment. Like results were realized by all the orchardists of Nevada and Grass Valley who marketed their fruit. Catching Stranded Trout. List Saturday’ the’ water in the South Yuba Company’s lower ditch was shut off to permit of the repairing of a flume, and numerous parties who went from the county seat captured some fish up this.si le. of Quaker Hill.

Their sufferings are very real, although you, with your vigorous physique and strong nerves, can scarcely 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 effort, is also astate of the system where there the. intervention of this tonic is very desirable, more particularly as its use is to quiét and relax the tension of over-wrought nerves, The Bitters are invaluable in rheumatism, neuralgia and kidney. troubles.
