FORTY-STAMP MILL. Lumber Is Being Hauled to the Champion Mine For. It. Some time ago the TranscrIPT stated that the Champion Quartz Mining Company would soon commence the erection of a forty-stamp mill, making seventy stamps in all, The ground for the new mill has been cleared and a gang of men are now preparing to put up the big structure.” M. L. & D, Marsh have the contract for the lumber and today they have three teams engaged in hauling the lumber to that mine. Work will be pushed as ‘ast as'it is possible to. do so, and it is expected that in a few weeks the new stamps will be ready to crush the fine looking rock that is , being taken out of this celebrated mine, The Champion is opened up in good shape and from every appearance the seventy stamps will be kept busy for many years to come, and everybody here is glad of it, for the reason that the lucky owners are the most’ liberal set of men that ever engaged in a mining enterprisé. The President of the company, Gus, Kartschoke, arrived here this morning to see the work started on the new mill. Doo 4 BALDNEss is often) preceded or accompanied by grayness of; the hair.

ORoVILLE, August 29,—In the jail of Oroville is-confined Thomas Laughty, alias Locklin, who is believed--to bé the murderer of Arthur Meyer.: On the 30th of last October, Meyer was driviug a stage near Nevada City, when a lone highwayman held up the stage and demanded the box, did not obey at once, and the, highwayman fired, killing him ‘instantly, Detectives traced the murderer all over Northern California, but failed to find the robber, althongh a reward of $2600 was offered. Two months ago, Laughtly was arrested in Chico ona charge of larcency and pleaded guilty and was sentenced to ninety days in the County Jail. Four weeks ago, his.cellmate, George Evans, heard him murmur inhis sleep: ‘I shot Arthur Meyer, and if I don't get that old —— in the bushes.there, he will get me,”’ Evans thought he had the murderer and spent‘two weeks in questioning Locklin, One day Evans said to him: ‘*You should be more careful what you say in your sleep, for you might tell things about yourself yon don’t want others to. know.”’ From that time Laughty feared Evans. For nearly a week he was ina terrible state of excitement and day and night waiked up and down his cell without sleeping. At last he picked a quarrel with Evans, but the jailer separated them. Soon after this, six of the prisoners were sitting together when Kvaus said: “T wonder if a murderer conld be hanged. by what he might say in his sleep. I think I know the murderer of Arthur Meyer, and could:put my hands on him.” Laughty, who was behind Evans, in‘a fit of-rage grabbed up a spittoon and struck him a heavy blow on the head. The other prisoners stopped the fight, told Under Sheriff Guidery and Sheriff Wilson what he had heard. They found further proofs of his guilt, and as soon as Laughty’s term expires he will be taken to Nevada county. Laughty is seeking in every way to escape, He has tried the wall at every point and also tested the iron door and windows. Twice he has been caught taking an impression of the cell lock, once with soap and again with a soft piece of wood. He walks the floor constantly, lost in thought, but Jailer Boyles has taken every precaution to thwart any attempt to escape. The reward will be divided between. the Butte county officers apd Evans, in case Laughty is convicted, Meyer Evans then + Mee Are After the Will. County Clerk Greany has received a letter from iuterested parties in Sheffield, England, inquiring after information of Thomas Williams, who died in ‘‘California” about eightcen years ago and left considerable property. About five years ago a Manchester soliciting firm inserted an advertisement in a Sheffield newspaper requesting the relatives of the said Williams or their representatives to communicate with them, but when the party writing to Clerk Greany called the solicitors refused to give him any information and the U. S. Consul advised him to write to officials in this State. The relatives are working people, some of whom are employed by the writer, and have not the means to investigate the case, Azarias Williams, father of Thomas, also came to this country, so the letter stdtes, and numerous letters were received from him, but none from the son, The writer concludes by inquiring if a will exists in this county and if so, that a copy be sent to him, eo Congregational Church.

Downey is the man who was arrested by Oificer Meek on suspicion of being the unprincipled individual whose indecent actions had been complained of by the people residing near the corner of Second and A streets. Weduesday a lady and two little girls called at the prison and identified Downey as the man'who insulted them, When Downey appeared in court he shook like an aspen leaf, caused by drink, and be offered the same excuse for the alleged ‘conduct. However, he insisted that he could not remember ever visiting the neighborhood where the offense was said to be committed. A plea of not guilty was entered up ard the case was continued for trial. ‘wo hours later Downey expressed a willingness ‘to plead guilty to the charge. He said he could not eat, sleep or be composed in any position and he wished to have the matter over with. Judge Garber was sent for, and the prisoner withdrew his plea’ of not. guilty, substituting that of guilty. ‘It was then that the Court used the language that opens this item, Judge Garber concluded the case by ordering that Downey be confined in the county ‘jail for a period of sixty days.

It is said that notwithstanding Assessor W. H. Martin raised the taxable _propérty of this county over a halt million of dollars this year there will be no reduction in the tax levy. It is claimed that the reduction of fees, under the new county Dill passed by the last Legislature, will cause a falling off of the revenue of this county several thousand dollars, The appropriation of $8000 or thereabouts that has been received for many years from the State for the support of the aged indigents at the County with this the county has been compelled to have a new bridge constructed at the Purdon crossing at a cost of about $10,000. In addition to these the State tax rate has been increased, and the Supervisors do not see their way clear to make the tax rate any less than it was a yearago. Many of our _people believed that there would be a reduction but in the face of the above facts it is very doubtful‘bout any change in the rate being made. i ‘ POWDER Absolutely Pure. ‘‘A cream of tartar baking powder, Highest of all in, leavening strength.” Latest United States Government Food Report.
