McCall by their attorney, Thomas 8. Ford, have begun suit in the Superior Court against Hon. J. M. Walling and others to obtain‘a decision as to whom George ‘0. Gaylord as trustee for the various lienholders of the Nevada City mine shall pay the $35,000 derived from the sale of the property to the Champion Mining Company. ! From the complaint it appears that in 1896 Chas. Maddrill and Dwight Rolfe obtained a judgment against the Nevada City mine for labor performed. Some time afterward Frank Golden ant other creditors assigned their claims to George C. Gaylord, who sued and obtained a second judgment. The Sheriff sold the mine to Maddrill and Rolfe under the first judgment. About a year afterwards other creditors assigned their claims to Gaylord who sued and obtained a third judgment. ‘The creditors who had obtained the second judgment put up the money and redeemed the mine from Maddrill and Rolfe. They also had the Sheriff sell the mine to Gaylord under the second judgment. The creditors under the third judgment did not redeem from the purchasers under the second judgfnent. Upon the sale last Fall of the mine to the Champion Mining Company for $85,000 the creditors under the third judgment claimed part of the proceeds. This was denied by Golden and others claiming under the sécond judgment, and a lawsuit is the result to ascertain how the proceeds, should be divided.

Fish yawn; they open their mouths slowly until they are round, the bones of: the head seem to loosen, and the gills open. Dogs are inveterate yawners and stretchers, but seldom sneeze unless they havea cold. Cats are always stretching their bodies, legs and claws, as every one knows who has a cat for a pet. ‘ Horses stretch violently when and after indulging in a roll, but not, as a rule, on all fours. A stag when stretching sticks out his head, stretches his fore feet out and hollows his-back and neck as though trying to creep under a bar.
