C, WALRATH: It is rumored on the street that you acted as toastmaster toa swell but select party of he-males at Mose Bates’ ranch, a few days ago, and that the menu consisted of soft-shelled crabs, oysters, rare roast beef, quail on toast, lamb croquettes, mince and squash pies, etc., etc., ete., etc. After your party had got on the outside of these good things, while Mose Bates went out for spring water, three of his finest chickens were missing and finally turned up in the shape of a chicken fricassee as a night-cap. Explain. a4244444 6446464686 A Good Innovation. ORMER RESIDENTS of Nevada City who return ocr casionally are quick to notice the great spirit of progressiveness that ourcity has manifested during the past ten or fifteen years-in the way of modern improvements. One of the best and most important innovations that has been adopted by our city people and which is always noticed and commended by former townsmen or strangers who are perhaps quicker to observe and comment on such matters than others, is long stretches of cement walks which adorn our business streets and encircle many of our residences as well, For many years our people were content with wooden sidewalks and in connection with the planked streets which were used here extensively in former years, they were considered a proper companion. But when the rotten planking on the streets were supeseded by macadam and the people realized how much the sanitary condition of our city and the general health of our citizens had been improved, the public began looking forward to the time when t he old-fashioned wooden sidewalks, which are a constant source of expense to keep in good repair, would be discarded and something better and more lasting be substituted. As soon as the first cement walk had been laid in town and its advantages noted others quickly followed and for.a time artisans at this branch of industry had all they could attend to. For awhile somé of our citizens held back on account of the extra expense incurred in substituting cement for boards, but when they observed that a good cement walk would last almost a life time and was true economy in the long run, they en.ertained no further scruples against the innevation and at once fell into line. Nearly all our people realize now that cement walks are not only a convenience but a necessity in this period of modern ideas and imprdtement. They are also an ornament to the town and greatly add to_the permanent character of the property values ofthe city. While the City Trustees have never forced the construction of cement walks in the business section of this city, they have} always favored and encouraged it and like many others they would like to see the whole business section of the town enThere are a few of our citizens circled with these walks. who have not yet discarded their wooden sidewalks but it is more than probable that they will see fit to make the desired change next spring. a4e@eeeee ee eee Causes Unknown.

John Hocking told of how the clue which led to the discovery of the tody of Griffiths, and of its removal from the shaft, Inthe course of the examination’ it was learned that Mrs. Bigelow was the first one to give information while she was under the influence of liquor. Mrs. Rosa Townsend testified that she heard Allen make the remark that he would put an end to Griffiths if he kept bothering his (Allen’s) family. Mrs. Benfield was recalled to the stand and denied some of the statements attributed to her. This concluded the evidence and the Coroner’s jury returned the fol. ‘lowing verdict: ‘“‘We.find the deceased was named Joseph Griffiths; that hewas a native of Devonshire, England, aged sixty-five years and twenty-four days ; that the cause of his death on the fifteenth day of April, 1901, was from causes unknown to the jury. . , ; ALEXANDER HENDERSON, Foreman.” MAHER & CO. or not. and willing hands are at. work decorating our store day and night. plain figures, so it is easy for you to select.

The Grand Jury elected H.J. Wright Seoretary, and A.B. Ohampion was appointed Sergeant-at-Arms, The following are the members: N. P. Brown (foreman), H. J. Wright, H. D. Towle, P. W. Michell, B. F.

Kneebone, the teamster who drives fourteen mules, had quite an exciting time near the Anthony House last week. W. J. Organ and son, Robert, had been repairing the bridge which spans Deer Creek, and had about completed the work when Kneebone came along with his team. It was raining very heavy at the time, and the creek was. almost a raging torrent, but Kneebone concluded that tbe bridge was not in a safe condition for his mules and three wagons to cross, and started to fori the stream. The swift currents carried the mutes off their feet and bunched them op in the middle of the stream. Kneebone kept his head and in about five minutes had all the animals safely on the bank.
