The young, plump and juicy turkey
was a scarce articleof diet around
about Thanksgiving time, and even up
to within a day or two of Christmas
The people of this glorious and bountifal State were deep in surmises as to
what dire calamity had overtaken the
festal flocks. Turkeys were high, very
high, being scarce at 30 cents and
bringing as much as 85 cents per
pound. The result was that the
chicken industry boomed to no little
degree, many-contenting themselves
with the barnyard grouse. The day
before Ohristmas they dropped to 25
cents and since then their descent has
been marked, the price coming as low
as twenty cents here and eighteen
cents at Grass Valley. At San Francisco the slump is phenominal. Tarkeys can be had galore for ten and
twelve cents, with fair prospects of
rating still lower. Large numbers
have been sbipped to the Bay City
from the East and the markets are
now virtually glattei. The scarcity
enigma has been solved. Farmer
Corntassel held back his delectable
birds Thanksgiving Day in the hope
of reaping a golden harvest Christmas
and New Years, but in this he bas been
brought to face the solemn realization
that if he cannot.part with his flocks at
a reasonable price he is apt to see them
@ drug upon his hands.
‘Superior Court.
The following business was trans‘acted in the Superior Court today,
Hon. F. T. Nilon presiding:
A. W. Collins et al, vs J. F.L Truro
et al. On trial—4th day. Upon the
case being called, plaintiffs introduced
in evidence the deed which they desire
set aside by this suit. Counsel then
moved the Court for judgment, on the
grounds that tbe deed iu question is
nall and void, it having never been
acknowledged or properly signed by
the grantor, Mrs. Nancy W. CoHin
in that the signature, which id by”
mark, was not witnessed by two parties as witnesses thereto, in accordance
with Sec. I4 of Code of Civil Procedure. Said motion was taken under advisement by the Court. The deposition of Ellen Ruth Miles was then reed
by counsel for plaintiffs.
In the matter of the estate of J. M.
Smith, deceased, the sale of personal
property was confirmed, and annual
account settled, allowed and approved.
Estate and guardianship of Albert,
John and William Rodda,
Sale of real estate confirmed.
Estate of William Osborn, deceased
Whole of estste set aside to the widow.
Estate of Charles Hegarty, deceased.
Hearlnog of annual account continued
until Monday, January 4, 1904.
Laid in the Tomb.
The faneral of the late Frank 0.
Jewett took place this afternoon unNo. 49, Imp’d. O. BR. M., and was
largely attended. Religious services
were held at the Oongiegational
charch, Rev. J. Sims officiating. He
preached an excellent sermon, and
feelingly dwelt on the promising characteristics of the deceased young
men, who had been called in the spring
time of life.
“The following young gentlemen,
friends of the deceased in life, acted
as bearers of the pall: Julian Wrtght,
Richard Nickless, James Hackley Jr.,

O'Neill is always equal for the occa

on the start. Just to show “he went,

‘ell of a late experience. at Mooney
Fiat. The first of last week Mr.
O'Neill received 8 nicely worded letter
inviting bim to attend a Christmas
entertaioment in the school house at
that pl Well, in the course of the
regular run of effairs the matter was
temporarily dismissed from his mind,
although the invitation was duly accepted by a few lines hurriedly dashed
off and posted without delay. No
date was given in his answer as to the
time for the entertainment, and ina
day or sothe genial &chool Super
intendent thought of his appointment,
and knowing the exercises to be in
the nature of a Senta Claus affair he
took it for granted that Christmas Eve
was the time fixed. On Thursday
he set out for Mooney Flat with his
magic lantern to help out the program by some attractive views. When
he reached there the people were talking of the fine entertainment given the
night before: Mr. O’Neill lost no
time in explaining matters, and ennounced a megic lantern exhibition
for Christmas Eve. The people came
from miles around, and enjoyed the
views so well that every slide had to
be run through the “machiny” twice.
Dancing followed, and everybodys ‘said
that the preceding eveninog’s entertainment was away behind iu fun.

There was only one verdict at the
close of the concert. Rivela’s Royal
Jtelian Band has displaced Sousa’s in
the affections of the Bogterners; Sousa
will be forgotten when the band leaves
San Francisco. For a new leader has
sprung up to charm and magnetize by
his wondrous art and now Chevalier

Epworth Leagues and to listen to the
beantifal and idepiring anthem music
which was rendered by the choir singers of the Grass Valley M. E. church,
assisted by local vocalists. Selections
appropriate to Christmastide, were rendered inmost pleasing and efficient
