TH GRAND JURY,
Its Labors Concluded This Afternoon—
Nothing Important Done,
The Grand Jury concluded its labors
at 2:40 o’clock this afternoon and submitted its report.
Some of the justices of the peace in
this township and Grass Valley are
criticised for inflicting too light penalties, and the report says: “The courts
are not maintained for the constant exercise of leniency toward criminals at
the expense of the’tax payers.
Fault is found because some of the
court-bills are excessive, and officers
—arewarned to exercise better judgment

The officers of Nevada City and
Grass Valley are urged to enforce the
law prohibiting minors from entering
~. galoons.
The charges of perjury against Thos.
Anderson and of obtaining money under false pretenses against Edward
Conradt were ignored.
The erection of an addition to the
courthouse, to be used as a hall of
records, is deemed advisable. __
District Attorney Riley is thanked
for his courtesy to the jury.The various county officers are com. mended for the excellent imanner in
which their various departments are
conducted.
A YBRY SAD CASE.
A Young Woman Made a Depraved/
Drunkard by a Spell of Sickness.
Annie McCabe, an unmarried Grass
Valley woman 25 years old, was lodged
in the county jail today to serve thirty
days for being a common drunkard.
Her case is asad one. She is most respectably connected, and her relations
have done everthing they can think of
to straighten her up, but without availHer craze for drink amounts to a
mania. As a girl she was exemplary in
her habits and had a bright mind: Three
years ago she had anattack of typhoid
fever and almost died. When she got
around again her whole nature had
d and her career of drunkenness
. She became so low that she
would stand in front of the postoffice at
mail time and beg the throngs of men
who came and went for small sums of
money with which to buy liquor. There
’ is little chance that .she will ever recover from the mania.
A Dearth of Shows.
‘Up to this time no large shows have
been booked for the theater at this
city during the present month. Until
Grass Valley builds a theater we cannot
expect to have many first-class attractions, as the expense of coming so far
.off the main line td play a one-night
:stand is heavier than the business will
\warrant in mostinstances. Aside from
tthis drawback Nevada City is rated as
‘one of the best show-towns on the
coast. ‘ nae
Old-Timers Pull Up Stakes.
John Robinson and family, who for
years have conducted the Plum Valley
ranch in Sierra county near Pike City,
have sold that property and today left
this city for Monmouth, New Jersey,
where they expect to live in future.
The Robinsons have many friends in
this part of the State who are sorry to
‘ gee them go away.
Ready to Call Time.
Everything.is about ready for the
Beckman-Gilmore~ fight on Monday
evening. Barney Schreiber Hartman,
Riley Grannan Smith and Dan Stuart
Webber, the promoters of the carnival
of sport and charity, together with
Wyatt Earp Russell, the referee, guar’ antee a hot time.
Pay Day T: morrow.
Tomorrow will be the monthly payday at most of the mines, the Harmony
not paying till Monday. About $60,000 will be disbursed by the various
companies, and as most of this money
will be spentin Nevada City the holiday trade should be good from now on.
Threatening Weather.
‘This morning’s weather forecast was:
Cloudy and unsettled weather, generally without rain, tonight and Saturday.

A Pioneer. Dying.
~ James Bottomley, a native of England aged 88 years, is dying at his home
at Red Dog of pneumonia. He is one
of the pioneer miners of Little York
township, and the oldest man in that
part of the county. He has been ill
but a short time, but his condition is
hope of his recovery. Those who have
known him intimately for years say
that Nevada county will lose one of her
grandest old men when James Bottomley passes away.

Looking Toward California.
W. H. Mills, land agent of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, states
that the. prospects for California were
never better than they are at present.
Inquiries for California lands have
been received from all parts of the
Union, and indications are that there
will be a great many visitors here from
the Northwest: and from the Eastern
States who will spend the winter, if not
settle here permanently.
Hitch in the Water Bonds.
The eastern buyers of the ‘water

the money. This will cause a short
delay, but the differences will doubtless
be adjusted satisfactorily to all concerned.

ofthem. They received a number of
threatening letters containing drawings of skulls and crossbones.
. The unfortunate girl had been in
' this country only a few years, and her
. only relative here was a sister, whg was
‘a house servant. Crossetti was a blacksmith, a good mechanic, 24 years of
age. He was.a member of the Italian
Benevolent Society and San Jose Hussars.
On the afternoon of August 9th the
young couple went out fora walk and
had reached a point on North Third
street, near Santa Clara, when suddenly
they were intercepted by Allender, who
jumped from a bicycle he had been
riding and made an attempt to talk to
the girl. She would not listen to him
and sought to get by him, when suddenly Allender whipped out a sixshooter and fired at her. The bullet
took effect in the girl’s neck and she
fell. Allender then fired a shot into
her body as she lay’on the ground.
