A GRAPHIC
Description of the
Mining Camp
AT THE MIDWINTER FAIR, SAN
FRANCISCO,
By a Talented Nevada City Lady.
San Francisco, Feb. 9, 1894.
Epiror Transcript: Every concession
of-our Midwinter Fair is about com plete and
judging from indications it will be a grand
success. E-.ery building presents a magnificent appearance and the interior of each
is a echovl in itself. Crowds pass through
the gates daily and many who claim Nevada
City as ‘thome.” Among these being Dr.
Klack and sister, Frank Mills, Chas, Tower,
Albert Kidd,,Geo. Black, Miss Power and
Barnum Power, who by the way, was looking anythirg but pleasant “because the
‘Model Restaurant” in the Fair grounds
_. could give him nothing for dinuer but ham
and eggs.
As‘I passed into the Grand Court and
gazed around I was almost bewildered
and wondered what, shall I look -at first?
Ah! I have it—y own county—the miners,
for dear to the heart of every Californian is
the mining camp, as it carries him back. tu
the old days-of ’49; and not only to the
Westerner is 1t an object of interest, but t
the Eastern States this representation of
wild Western life is peculiarly attractive.
The old stage etarts every half hour from
the Administration Building in the Fair.
grounds and those wishing to experience
a stage,ride of olden days have only to take’
a-seat in‘ this ancient vehicle, which besides
its passengers, carries the mail and express
tothe Camp. Before reaching the end of
this journey you are hkely to experience
many Vicissitudes such as a “‘tip over’ or
“hold up.” ‘This stage is particularly an
object of interest, regarded with awe by
youths who are devoted readers of dime
novel literature and who gaze with wondering eyes at the marks of the bullets in the
sides, as they listen to stories told by the
driver of*the~times when Black Bart, of
outlaw notoriety, rifled the treasure box and
escaped with considerable booty. Once in
the (amp, if you reach there in safety, there
aré various ways of spending the time. The
stage draws up with a flourish before the
is printed in large black letters the suggestive name: ‘‘Rest for the Weary.” Here
one may refresh himself with bacon, fried
potatees, mush, milk, etc. In this place it
is well to pay promptly for your order, as the
3ize of the proprietor’s cowhide boots augurs
ill for the unfortunate who might be ‘dead
is the saloon where the drinks are served
from behind a counter, which is a plank
resting upon two barrels. This primitive
bar, however, does not affect the quality of
the whiskey. At the other end is the wheel
of fortune, which in its turning has so often .
brought destruction or death to its devotees.
Of course gambling in earnest is not permittted on the Fair grounds, but.as no mining camp ever existed without its gambling
hells this point has to be carried out and 1s
"Those
who wish to indulge in faro, poker, monte,
roulette, etc., Lave only to procure gold
dust, which is given to buy chips. These
chips are the same that were used in the
famous Ej] Dorado gambling hall, which
flourished in San Francisco in '49. _ Two
rough-looking musicians make the place
lively with banjo and fiddle, and a barkeeper, whose costume consists principally
of a ferocious-looking bowie knife aud revolver suspended from his belt, keeps order.
Next door is the dance house, where one’
may see the fandango danced to inspiring
music. The floor is nut polished: and the
seats are boards, but one must not expect
luxuries in a mining camp.
Another feature is the theatre erected by
Richard Foote, the well-known actor. The
glamor of the footlights (tallow candles
stuck in potatoes), lends a seductive enchantment to the beauties which adorn the
stage, One may see any variety here, from
vaudeville to the legitimate. It is quite
likely that during the performance the costumes and property of this theatre may be
seized for some debt contracted in an. adjoining camp, but that is expected of a barvstorming combination, and does not in any
way mar the real excellence of the cntertainment. 3
At the end of the one main strect a fine
height, and from the hills at the base. run
sluices and flumes which’show how mining
is carried on and old-time miners give
realistic exhibitions of the use of axcient
hydraulic apparatus. Cabins built of logs
are ecattered here and there. Among them
are those of John Mackay, Mark Twain,
Major Dowslie and others-. In the museum
many interesting relics are displayed, such
as the saddle used by Jumes Marshall, the
first gold rocker made by him, the spurs of
Gen. Sutter, 4 rifled Wells Fargo treasure
box, the charred remains of the cabin, occupied by James King, which was burned
in a mysterious manner some years ago. A
pack-train of myles winds slowly through
the streets from the hills, and at sundown
the old cannon used in Gen. Sutter's fort
tells the residents of the Camp that it is
time for supper. . The Mining Camp is seen
at ite best advantage at night, when the
flaring lights, music in the dance hall, the
noisy crowd in the saloon, make one feel as
if he were indeed far away from civilization and had been spirited back to the good
J old days when the vigilantes were the law
_. of the land. Indeed, the whole thing is
remarkably realistic and one ef the most
attractive. features of our Midwinter Fair.
