HELP TO RAISE THEM UP And Guide Them in the Right In} stead of Pulling Them Down. A certain girl went. from San Francisco to San Jose and fell among the women. of the half world there, says the Fresno -Re~ publican. She was the daughter of respectable parents, and was about 16 years of age. According to report she ‘‘did not resident of this city in the fifties and _practiced law here, suksequently moving to Virginia City. At one) time Thornton became angry over a certain article that appeared in the Nevada Jourral, which the late Judge A. C. Niles was editing temporarily during the absence’ of*;the regular editor, the late E. G. Waite. Thornton met. Niles in Frisbie’s saloon and demanded to know the name of the author, of the article. This demand Niles very peremptorily refused to comply with, and a quarrel ensued between the two men, during which Thornton drew a pistol and fired at Niles, but without effect, a bystander knocking the barrel of the weapon upward just as the trigger was pulled. Niles attempted to draw his pistol, but found that some one had taken it from his pocket, Friends. of both parties then interfered and stopped further trouble, é The man who wrote the article that caused ‘An Incident in His Life While a Res-. SCHOOL MATTERS. Colfax Dedicates One of the Finest Buildings in Placer County. The last issue of the Colfax Sentinel came to hand with a lengthy account of the dedication, by appropriate exercises, of a new $10,000 school building at that place. A good illustration of the structure was given on the first page. The Sentinel says: A history of the move that secured the handsome new building is as follows: A school election was held in CoJfax District on the date of September 15, 1894, to determine the question of bonding the district in the sum of $10,000, for the puopose of erecting a new school building. When the returns were counted it was found. that the total number of votes against the proposition was but eighteen. The bonds were regularly issued and were purchsaed by the Citizens’ Bank, Nevada City. Early in October last the contract for the new building was let for the sum of. $9,100.

And the reporter, what did he?. Went straightway, and published the poor girl’s name and all the circumstances’ of her fall to the world. Such was the result of an appeal to his better nature. The girl was a foolish, erring child; he was a knave, Her offence, though it was born-in the hot blood and immature judgment of childhood, will be held up to the world as almost heinous; his heartless— ness may be considered a proof of ‘*b usiness sense.” Yet any person who has some’conception of the high duties of life will know that his wrong overtops hers as a monntainu a molehill, for hers was born of folly and youth and his of absolute indifference to, the. claims of humanity.

Over at Wheatland they-have had-a—case similar to the two suits dismissed in. the Grass Valley court, last-week. A certain Wm.

The case-was heard last Tuesday and the defen. imdustrial energy and benefit every enterdant was discharged, There is no doubt but what Aimick was loser on the board question but the Court could not see wherein defendant had intended to defraud. The concensus of legal opinion seems to be, that a landlord will have to pocket his loss in cases where he is beaten out of a board bill, unless there is a palpable attempt to defraud by surreptitious or secret departure of the guest, with his baggage.

The number costs only ten cents, and is published by The Curtis Publishing Company, of Philadelphia, Gold Mining Is Still Our Bulwark. News-Letter: The bill to promote mining in this State and prohibit injunctions on hydraulic mining had a narrow escape in tle Assembly on Monday last, owing to the absence of many of its friends in the chamber. As the industry stands at the present time, there should be no objection to such a measure, but it seems that the anti-debris spirit still survives and is still kept alive through prejudice. The damage done by hydraulic mining is-a thing of the past, and it cannut be any worse, The restrictions now thrown around the industry under the operations of the Federal law are sufficient to prevent any further damage to the farms and streams, and as mining has revived to such an extent during the few years, showing it is-the-most-valuable industry in the State, it does seem that there should be a comity of feeling among all classes, that no one would seek to retard its development. The farms and orchards have been developed to such an extent that their products have become a drug in the market, and, untila State to create a market for home consumption, mining is the ouly industry that can be developed with profit. It would be a very injudicious thing to place any embargo on hydraulic mining at the present time, and it isto be hoped that the Legislature will pass the bill and relieve the miner from any anxiety he may have from a fear of legal action. ~~ It May Do as Much for You, Mr, Fred Miller, of Irving, Ill., writes that he had a Severe Kidney trouble for many years, with severe pains in his back and also that his bladder was affected.

Mr, Mills then filed a statement concerning the cost paratus used, It sets forth that Mr. Perkins has invented a device for using sterilized air, which preserves fruit and saves $100 per car, as compared with refrigeration. Mr. Perkins experimented with a carload of fruit, which was moved from’ Oakland to New Orleans and back at the expense of the Southern Pacific Company. The car was absent fifteen days, The experiment was satisfactory. lf that device had been put in general use two.years ago there would have been a saving of $100,000 to. California this season.

Mrs. Shakespeare sounds a.bit odd to our ears, and.that ie why thousands of people will read with curfosity the article under that title in the March Ladies’ Home Journal. The paper is extremely interesting. It is by Dr. W. J. Rolfe, the Shakespearean authority, who-gathers together everything that is kiown about Shakespeare’s wife, her courtship, her married life and her children, and presents his material in a popular and most fascinatingly-interesting article, Conan Doyle, in the same magazine, tells what he thinks are the ‘‘Literary Aspects of America;”. while William Dean Howells is particularly entertaining in his literary autobiography this month in telling of Thomas Hardy aud Tolstoy, and of the great literary passion of his life. Dr, Parkhurst fulfills the promise of his first article, and is very strong in what he says of ‘‘The Unit of Society;” while Mrs. Burton Harrison is instructive in fixing many of the little oourtesies of social life, about which everybody likes to be right.

News-Letter: The bill to promote mining in this State and prohibit injunctions on hydraulic mining had a narrow escape in tle Assembly on Monday last, owing to the absence of many of its friends in the chamber. As the industry stands at the present time, there should be no objection to such a measure, but it seems that the anti-debris spirit still survives and is still kept alive through prejudice. The damage done by hydraulic mining is-a thing of the past, and it cannut be any worse, The restrictions now thrown around the industry under the operations of the Federal law are sufficient to prevent any further damage to the farms and streams, and as mining has revived to such an extent during the few years, showing it is-the-most-valuable industry in the State, it does seem that there should be a comity of feeling among all classes, that no one would seek to retard its development. The farms and orchards have been developed to such an extent that their products have become a drug in the market, and, untila State to create a market for home consumption, mining is the ouly industry that can be developed with profit. It would be a very injudicious thing to place any embargo on hydraulic mining at the present time, and it isto be hoped that the Legislature will pass the bill and relieve the miner from any anxiety he may have from a fear of legal action. ~~ It May Do as Much for You, Mr, Fred Miller, of Irving, Ill., writes that he had a Severe Kidney trouble for many years, with severe pains in his back and also that his bladder was affected.

Ata meeting of the Railroad Commissioners, Monday last, held in San Francisco, W. H. Mills was present and -made the following statement relative to the Perkins fruit car: He -said he did not reprepent the Seuthern Pacific Company, but came as a student of the industrial. resources of this State and the influence of transportation upon fruit shipments. Mr, Mills then filed a statement concerning the cost paratus used, It sets forth that Mr. Perkins has invented a device for using sterilized air, which preserves fruit and saves $100 per car, as compared with refrigeration. Mr. Perkins experimented with a carload of fruit, which was moved from’ Oakland to New Orleans and back at the expense of the Southern Pacific Company. The car was absent fifteen days, The experiment was satisfactory. lf that device had been put in general use two.years ago there would have been a saving of $100,000 to. California this season. Mr. Mills thought there ought to be a fund or legislative appropriation which would enable the Railroad Commissioners to investigate devices of this ort t-o save money for the producers, t Oe Lodge Entertainment. .
