Some weeks ago he was given a fare\ well concert and started off for somewhere or other, but hé' is back in Oakland again, and thereby -hangs a tale. Mr. Wilkie left Oakland with the Boston Ideals, a trio of performers, that expected to travel all over the coast giving concerts ia churches and halls. ‘They charged high-class prices ail along the line fora mediocre entertainment. There were but three peoplein the company, Mr. Wilkie, one young lady who played the piano’ very skillfully and another young lady who gave recitations and was exceedingly commonplace. They visited Nevada City and Grass Valley among other places, striking a frosty wave in both towns. So it was wherever they went, : : simply because they charged fifty and . did Dot appear at the bar of the house seventy-five cents for what was noth-. today to answer the charge of contempt, ing more than a good two-bit show. AS] as he had been directed. He sent from a sequence, the ghost walked with decided irregularity, and at Fresno disappeared entirely. Wilkie rode home, and from the tone of a story in the Fresno Republican, the two ladies were! To Elect confronted with the alternative of remining in Fresno or walking out. It is claimed by Wilkie that the business Minager of the company, Philip Ray, Was a “frost” and that ak a result of his Miismanagement the entire compauy eaffered. The Republican of a few days ago had the following to say with regard to Mr. Wilkie and the Ideals: “Mr. Alfred Wilkie, who sang here recently with the Boston Ideals, writes the Republican claiming that the misand Young. fortunes of the company are due to thé escapades and bad management to A.

Tuesday. evening at their residence. Because of the scarcity of water there is but little mining going on around Pike City. The recent storms only soaked the dry ground and did not increase the springs to any extent, John T. Boley and Sheriff Busch went to Goodyear Bar this week for the purpose of closing np the St. Charles hotel, the property of the late Mrs. Fluke. Mr. Boley is ‘administrator of the estate. _ The Chinese New Year was ushered in with the usual pomp and ceremony this “year, and the racket with ‘fire crackers aud bombshells was kept up to the delight of the small boys, until the death of Ah Mow, which put a dampar on the proceedings for a few days. The demand for Sierra Valley -cattle appears to be on the increase. Steady shipments of beef cattle have been made during the winter, until it has been difticult fo meet the demand for them, An order for a car load for Sacrameuto was received by Nichols & Dolley this week, which they were nuable to fill. \ The Oriental mine ciosed ‘doen last week to wait for spring. A number of men celebrated the event Saturday and Sunday. While it would hardly: appear an oceasion for rejoicing, there was “a hot time in the old town,” and pistol shots and free fights were numerous. One of the old-time boys got badly knocked out, and a number are laid up for repairs. The Alaska mine at Pike City, so long idle, is to start up under new management. A superintendent and foreman will soon arrive from Arizona to take charge, when the mine will be drained: by means of a siphon. .As soon as. the mine is thus drained it will be worked through the old shaft. This news brings joy to the hearts of the people of that vicinity, which has been practically dead for some time.

THE PARTY'S ONLY HOPE Republican Legislators Must Not Ignore the Voters Who Elected Them. the future of the Republican party of the State are being jeopardized by the} Republican majority in the Legislature . this winter. The patience of the people . has been tried almost beyond ~endurance by the shameful and needless dilatory course that isbeing pursued in the’ matter of choosing a United States Senator to. succeed Senator White. a handful of aspiring politicians are being sustained and nutured by their respective factions at the expense of the tax-payers and to the detriment of the cause of Republicanism. The Democrats; being aided and abetted by the San Francisco Chronicle and the Call, are encouraging the deadlock for their own selfish ends. In opposition to these marplots and to the private interests and ambitions of the Senatorial candidates and their immediate following, stands the rank and file of the Republican party of California demanding that the Republican members of the Legislature pursue the usual and honorable plan of holding a caucus and . settling the trouble. eee The Wide Tire Bill.

THE PARTY'S ONLY HOPE Republican Legislators Must Not Ignore the Voters Who Elected Them. the future of the Republican party of the State are being jeopardized by the} Republican majority in the Legislature . this winter. The patience of the people . has been tried almost beyond ~endurance by the shameful and needless dilatory course that isbeing pursued in the’ matter of choosing a United States Senator to. succeed Senator White. a handful of aspiring politicians are being sustained and nutured by their respective factions at the expense of the tax-payers and to the detriment of the cause of Republicanism. The Democrats; being aided and abetted by the San Francisco Chronicle and the Call, are encouraging the deadlock for their own selfish ends. In opposition to these marplots and to the private interests and ambitions of the Senatorial candidates and their immediate following, stands the rank and file of the Republican party of California demanding that the Republican members of the Legislature pursue the usual and honorable plan of holding a caucus and . settling the trouble. eee The Wide Tire Bill.
