A Mining Suit.
_ Thomas C. Sterrstt has brought suit
at San Francisco against Georg? 8S.
Montgomery, the philanthropist, and
the California Safe Deposit and Trust
Company, to recover .a part of the
purchase price of a mine in Placer
county. The defendant Moatgomery
contracted with the plaintiff in 1895 to
purchase the La Trinidad gold mine.
By the terms of the contract he paid
$23,700 in cash and contracted to give
the defendant 30 per cent of the next
profits of the mine untilthe additional
sum of $24,000 had been paid. The
_ complaint alleges that no part. of the
agreed 30 per cent has been paid, but
declares that certain shares of the
stocks were deposit with the California
Safe Deposit and Trust Company as
security. He demands an order for
the sale of the stock and for a judgment against Montgomery.

\Mrs. Ivey Defends Her Home With a
Shotgun,
A man named Wright, discharged
from the county jail yesterday after
serving a sixty-day term, was brought
back today and lodged in his old qnarters, and he must now answer to a
Last.evening Wright, who is‘a tramp,
was hanging around Town Talk and the
residents of that section thinking he
meant mischhief, set a trap for him
Before dark Joseph Kitts locked up his
saloon, leaving Nick Snell inside to
watch the premises, and went over to
his brother’s house near by. Returning shortly after he found that Wright
had forced in the door and was struggling with young Snell who was trying
to throw him -out. He surrendered
when Mr. Kitts appeared on the scene
and saying, “I'll show you where I got
in,” he led the way to the door and
rushed out. He dodged around the
building and escaped them, :
l Wright went down the road to A. D.
Sutton’s ranch. There was nobody in
the house but Mrs. A. R. Ivey and Miss
Ida Hughes. He tried to getin at the
doors, and finding them locked went to
a window and tried to raise it. The
ladies were badly frightened, but Mrs.
Ivey confronted him with a gun and
told him if he did not leave she would
shoot him. While he was still loitering aronnd Mr. Ivey got home. The
tramp attacked him with aclub as he
approached the house, Ivey took the
club away and gave him a beating.
At the same place a little earlier
Wright went to the cowyard where
John Dailey was milking and said: “I
have bought a haif interest in this place.
I haven’t any more use-for yon. Come
to the office and I’ll pay you off.” He
escorted the young man to the chicken
house and there throwing atin can at
him told him to make himself scarce.
Wright also visited the Wills place
in the same’neighborhood where John
Skewes live. Hetried to get into the
house and making a good deal of noise
refused to leave when ordered todo so.
Mr. Skewes fired a gun in the air and
that had the desired effect.
Wright continued down the road as
faras Hill’s Flat where he was captured
by Sheriff Getchell, Deputy Pascoe and
moned by means of the Town Talk telephone. The prisonér was taken to
Grass Valley and lodged in the city
prison for the night.

“TWO MARRIED MEN.”
An Up to Date Comedy to be Produced
Here.
On Monday evening, the 26th instant,
George R. Edeson’s: three-act farce
comedy, “Iwo Married Men,” will be
produced at the theater in this city.
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer of November 28th says of this show:
George R. Edeson’s three-act farcecomedy, “Two Married Men,” was
greeted by a crowded house at the
Third Avenue theater last evening and
if the succession of roars of laughter
and encores that followed the action
and specialties throughout the evening
cat be accepted as an index of success,
the “Two Married Men,” can be said to
have scored one, Charles E. Schilling,
the once popular minstrel, called up
old memories in his musical act, but
the black face and the make-up were
missed. He has a lot of great musical
cialties, made the hit of the evening, as
did also the Grierson sisters. The
comedy as a whole is clever and brimful of farcial situations, in which J.
proved very acceptable. Ray Lewis
had a great deal to do and did it well.
Lilie Kenwick’s dancing was well received. The “Two Married Men” will
be on the boards all the week.
PELL OCCASIONALLY
At Church Suppers, Weddings and Parties.
“The minister liked coffee. Hislong
Sabbath day’s work was begun with a
cup of the strongest coffee and ended
in the same way. Gradually the pbysical and mental machinery becan.e .
clogged, tongue coated, dull headaches
and a general depressed condition of
the system turned his delightful occupation intoa dreary treadwill. .
MRS. JAMES E BUTLER,
Sheridan, Mich.
THE MINISTER'S WIFE.
to the fact that the unsuspected coffee
was very likely the cause of his trouble, and it was suggested that if he
would use Postum Food Coffee and
indnce the good wife to be particular
to boil it long enough to extract the delicious flavor and the elements: which
go to rebuild the broken down nerve
centres, his trouble would be gone.
This was two years and a half ago,
and since that time not a pound of
coffee has been purchased by the minister’s family.
night Postum makes its appearance on
the table, and is enjoyed by all. With
the departure of coffee went. the minister’s bad feelings, and with the coming
of Postum came a feeling of exhilaration, a better appetite and a constantly
increasing weight.
From the start the minister’s Postum has been properly made, because
of the warning. . :
At one time during the absence of
the house-wife, the domestic, not being
particular about preparing Postum according to directions, made it weak
and insipid, which we find is a very
common complaint among those who
do not understand that there is no way
to extract the delicious flavor from
Postum except by long boiling, Made
properly, it is clear, black and has a
crisp, pungent, fascinating taste. Occasionally the minister has been induced to drink a cup of coffee at weddings, parties, etc., but many sleepless
hours of the night are passed in consequence. This is a true experience.”
