THE TRANSCRIPT,
~ Onn AT,
He Has About Secured
the Oakland Gas
Works.
On Saturday last negotiations were
finally concluded whereby a syndica'e
headed by Joho Martin, may purchase
the Oakland Gas, L'ght and Heat
Company. The Oalifornia Gas and
haye made an offer of $70 a ebare for
all of the Oakland Gas stock if the
same is deposited with the First National Bank of San Francisco in escrow prior tothe 1st day of next September, and the Board of Directors of
the Oakland Company has determined
to recommend the acceptance of the
proposition. Itof course lays within
the province of the stockbolders to
accept the payment offered or not, and
the directors .have nothing to do except in an advisory committee, The
California Gas and Electric Corporatien’ has deposited with the Oakland
Gas, Light and Heat Company a bond
of $100,000, covering its option. Should
this offer be accepted by the stockholders by the deposit of a sufficient number of shares of the Company in
escrow by September % 1902, the San
Francisco corporation will then have
until the first day of March, 1904, in
which to take up the option. “The syndicate that is negotiating for the purchase of the stock of thé. Oakland Gas,
Light and Heat Company is headed by
John Martin, who also heads the syndicate now in control of the San Francisco and North Pacific Ooast Railroad. It is generally known as the
John Martin syndicate, as he bas been
the leading promoter in all its operations. John Martin, who is well known
in Nevada county, is now: engineering
a general consolidation of the: light
and power compaoies, and has come
to be a commanding figure in Pacific
Coast finance without herald or other
flourish of trumpets. His rise is so recent—se recent: that many men inquire who this Napoleon of finance is.
Every enterprise he has promoted hae
been a success. His deals are large
and comprehensive, and all engineered
with such familiarity with every detail that his judgment is invariably
vindicated, He bas gone on extending his operations and enlisting greater smoants of capital till be occupies a
most favorable position ia the fiuancfal world,
He Was Held:
_ San Francisco, April 21—Fred Henated “Young Dutchy,” was today held
to answer on‘a charge of .'elony, he
being accused of being implicated in
the assault made on Thos. Garrett, of
the Evening Post, about ten days ago.
The police have failed utterly to locate the man who committed the assault.on Garrett. Witnesses are ,ositive that Hansted sigualled the, approach of Mr. Garrett to the thug who
lay in waiting for the editor, and who
ner that Mr, Garrett Is still confined
to his room.

Committees Enthusas
tle Over Our
~ Resources,
The joint meeting at Grass Valley
last night of the o immittees from the
Nevada City Chamber of Commerce
was very entbusiaétic, The delegation which went down from thie city
was filled wih the idea of acquainting
the outside people of the vagt stores of
wealth that lie hidden to our ground,
and of the: natural’ resources with
which Nevada county is blessed. The
delegution from Nevada City was B. 8,
Reo'or, Dr. A. H. Tickell, W. H Dunlap, J.J. Jackson and W. F. Englebright, and they were overflowing with
ideas as to the proper manner in
which to adve:tise Nevada county’s advaut-ges, aud as the Grass Valleyans
were fully as wide-awake as our delegates, the meeting was full of enasin and very harmonious. ° The
meeting was called to order by Mayor
Clinch of Grass Valley end W. F.
Evglebright acted as Secretary. After
the minutes of the previous meeting
had been approved, the committee on
resolutions reported having waited on
the Bourd of Supervisors, asking for
an appropriation of $2000, and receiving a promise of $1000, providing the
committee would rai-e a like amount.
The report was adopted.
Supervicor Miller stated, in response
to a question, that there were no
strings on the promise.
The question of raising the $1000 ae
& guarantee to the Supervisors was
then brought up. A recess was deClared that each committee might
form plans for the futare. After a
brief discussion the session was resumed as a committee of the whole.
The ways and means committee reported that it had décided on a picnic
as the best means of raising the desired amount, but decided’ to set no
date until further details had been arranged. The picnic will be held at
Glenbrook, and it is the intentioh to
make it the biggest attraction ever
given inthe county. This committee
reported that it desired to ingrease the
advertising committee to ten members, edding the names of 8S. Lee
Leiter, W. H. Bray and Henry Lane
thus making a-committee of five from
each place, Messrs. ‘Jackson and)
Jamieson wefe appointed a committee
to confer with the railroad officials
concern‘'ng special rates of transportation. It was recommended .that
ubout 4000 envelopes bearing an appropriate design be printed and distributed among the business and professional men to advertise both the
picnic and the county.
ing committee reported that it had decided to make ho recommendations on
advertising matter until it shall obtain ptices on-éuituble samples. The
Secretary was instructed to correspond
with “Sunset,” the railroad megazine,
io an endeavor to secure the best possible rates for space in ite columas.
A novel and interesting proposition
was suggested, It was proposed to
erect at Colfax a pyramid of quartz, so
situated as to a'tract.and hold the atteition of passergers going East and
West. A» simple ivscription above it
would descrite it in brief, while pampblets in the depot would give its bistory and call attention to the mines
which furnished the rock. If this idea
be carried out quartz. will be asked
from every mine in the county, the
whole beidg firmly cemented together
in an artistic mould. The committee
decided to limit the cost to $800, Secretary Englebright was iustracted to
secure plans for the structure.
The committee resolved to endeavor
to make it an object for the Knights of
Psthias who visit this coast next Au‘gust to make a trip to this county, and
ap excursion may be arranged for.
Reorganization of the ways and
means and financial committees were
effected. ‘Tbe meeting then adjourned
until Monday evening next at 8 o’clock
in the South Yuba Water Company’s
office, Nevada City.

INDIFERENCE AND
NESS LEAD TO PHYSICAL
SHIPWRECK AND THE GRAVEr
The weak, ailing, sick and diseased
bave now more than ever before under
their control their physical condition,
They are free agerts, and a!most wholly responsible for their future. When
the brata is not affected, and the mind
can discern betweeu right and wrong,
aduty to themselves, their friends,
and country loudly demandes marked
decision—prompt and determined action when health is impaired and life
is in danger. :
It is the part of wisdom that true
decision be made today ; tomorrow
may be too late. In thousands of casee the checking and banishment of
disease depends upon instant action ;
an hour lost frequently means the
snnfiiog out of: some precious life.
Few people in our country are without some knowledge of the wondrous,
life giving virtues of Puaine’s Celery
Ocmpound, a medicine that guaranrode na from the disease common
to 8. * y!
What will ycur decision be today,
oor sufferer? Will you give Puaine’s
lery Compound the fair and honest
testing that others are giving it with
ite certain reward of’ health, strength,
vigor, or happiness, or will you remain
indiffereut and careless, content to
pass your few days or weeks in misery
agony and wretchedness uatil the’
dark grave claims you as its victim ?
It is almost needless to enumerate
the blessed results that flow from
Paine’s Celery Compound when used
promptly in springtime, as you and
your friends have a knowledge of
them. Of thisyou may be assured ;
the seeds of disease are banished, the
system ie fortified, the blood is made
red and.pure, the nerves braced, digestion regulated, headaches, side~
aches, and backaches forever dispelled
avd sweet, restful’ eleep takes the
place of insomania. —
