Hague has been inaugurated, and this summer will see installed one of the largest ad finest plants in the State'for developing the yast property on Massachusetts Hill which recently passed under that gentleman’s control. Surveyor Uren has been engaged for the past few days in surveying a pipe line route from-the Empire mine. to Massachusetts Hill. About 7000 feet of pipe will be required, which. will be twenty inches in size ~ and made of steel. It will be laid in cement nearly the whole distance, and will cross Wolf creek on a stone arch. Mr. Hague intends to erect a plant near the site of the old French mill, on the Stockbridge claim, which will cost in the neighborhood of $100,*. 000. At this point the water fall will be about 750 feet pressure. The whole plant will be.operated with compressed air, which is-claimed to be cheaper than electricty and more easily handled. The power, too, will be sufficient to abundantly supply the mine with compressed air, to enable the underground employes to work to good advantage. The whole Massachusetts Hill will be drained by this plant on the Stockbridge claim, including the North Star, and it is said to be Mr. Hague’s intention to work the whole of Massachusetts Hill through this mine and the North Star. The opening up of the Massachusetts Hill property, which has produced several millions of dollars already, is of the greatest importance to Grass Valley, as it will give employment to a great many ., men who are now idle. = ee THERE is no excuse for any man to appear in society with a grizzly beard since the introduction of Buckingham’s Dye,. which colors-natural brown or. black, 4 6@e INSTALLATION AND DANCE. ‘The Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias Will Entertain Tonight.

Aram of Sutter, Yolo and. Yuba led the fight against the bill, saying all the old evils of hydraulic mining with slickens in the rivers would begin immediately after the the appeals were pending. Ford argued the right of appeal was only just and appealed for the passage of the bill in the name and Placer favored the bill, while Hart of Sacramento opposed it.

Saw Francisco, Feb. 25th. My: Deak Transorrer: Shakespeare puts nto the mouth of Macbeth the words: ‘Tomorrow, and tomor rows and. tomorrow, ; Creep in this potty pace ) day to day, . To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays hi: ave lighted fools The way to dusty death.’ * This is his. definition of procrastination. ‘On my list for this letter was the name of David Bentley. But-now, alas! he igs no more, and I must speak of him in the past instead. of in the present tense. Mr, Bentley was.one of our best citizens. He was always geutle and‘mild in his'manners, reserved to a degree; and yet at. times he had such a winning way, :stch a pleasant smile, that [ do not believe ‘‘Dave” Bentley had an enemy in the county. He was employed by Jesse Wall, and was a member of the ‘Paint Shop Club.” For the benefit of your readers who did not reside in Nevada City at the time, I will state that this Cinb was comprised of Nevada City’s ‘Four Hundred,” It'was very cxclusive and no’ one was admitted to its charmed circle without the strongest recommendation. It was a privilege, not a right. It was called the ‘Paint Shop Club” because its parties were given in the paint shop of G. E. Withington, located near the Broad-street bridge. Few remain that swept over the shetlasked floor inthe mazy glide of the waltz or the more stately measure of the The bright eyes are closed forme ! "twas then “Soft eyes looked love to eyes that spake again, And all went merry as-a marriage bell.” But I digress. From Nevada City Mr. Bentley went to Calico and engaged in merchandising. I don’t think he was suc: He came here événtially, but from my observation I don’t believe he did much. AsJI said, he was very reserved, and no one knew what he did or where he lived, In the directory his occupation is put down as ‘merchant,” with no address. He was a peaceful man—may he rest in peace, : From the dead to the living—it is ‘‘but a few days and full of trouble,” that which we pass, AsI walked along. Montgomery street the other day, deeply thinking, a tall form loomed up before me, and great, big, jolly Watson hove in sight. He had in tow a smaller craft, (it must be understood that Mr. Watson is Port Warden—hence these nautical terms.) Well, the smaller craft proved, on closer inspection, to be no less tian Chas. H. Mitchell, whose home port used to be Grass Vailey; but who, as supercargoof Nevada county’s consignment to the Midwinter Fair, became so infatuated with the beauties of this port, that he conus, even if it must be in the fo’castle instead of in the cabin. For years Mr. Mitchell piloted the destinies of the good ship “Union” of Grass Valley through the shoals, the ‘quicksands and the’ blustering storms of the sea of journalism. In this when the inevitable fell upon the latter Mr, M. wearied of guiding the helm, and about two years ago he confided to other hands floats and long may she continue to. Ag was said of another Union: “Fear not each sudden sound and shock, ’Tis of the wave, and not the rock.’ Mr. Mitchell now seeks another position . in this port. Mr. Watson remarked that he thought the ‘‘sun was over the foreyard,” main-brace was spliced.” I wish to state that the last edition of the ‘“‘Blue Book” of the State errs, Mr. Watson’s term does not expire until a year from next March. I am glad of it, A COUPLE OF EDUCATORS, J. B. McChesney was one of the early educators of Nevada City. He wasa suce cess, and his family was popular in society circles. His wife’s niece, Miss Susie Jewett, was alsoa teacher in our burg, I do not wish to dig up old troubles, but you all remember the Jewett-Hubbard squabble. Suffice it to say, such a thing could not occur now. History compels me to refer to it in general terms, One got married, the other moved ‘away, .and peace once more spread her white wings over the devoted city. If women were voters in those days what a turmoil there would have been! And, speaking of that, allow me to quote from Goldsmith, and paraphrase a little. I declare I won’t digress again, not in this letter, at least. ‘Tl fares the fand, to hast’ning ills a prey, Where woman dominates and men decay,’ -selves, Will Protect me, oh, miost potent paper, from the vials of wrath that will _be.shaiered. upon my devoted head! Well, in time Mc moved to Oakland. It was then a small village and the facilities for reaching it frum this side of the Bay were of the poorest description. But he had faith. He invested all -he had in real estate; he told me he was going to hold on, and, if he did, J. B. McChesney, the Principal, of the Oakland High School, and ‘. whilom of Nevada City, must be a very rich man. } g Long befpre the advent of Stratton, of McChesney} 'o Critténden, of Ciark, of my friends Deal and Preston, and ‘of others too numerous to mention, there moved into the city a family by the name of Stone. It consisted of the father, mother, and one daughter (Johanna, who afterwards married Robt. Bussenius, and now lives in St. Helena), and three sons, John, W. W. and. Adolph. The mother was a Doctress, and for those times had quite an extensive practice. They have all: passed from the’ scene except Johanna and W. W., the subject, of my present writing. At that. time the measly system that tlren existed. Willie found ajsituation with him. He was a good: boy,attentive to business and devoted to hid mother. But the war broke out, ‘and, Will and Adolph enlisted on the Union side. . They canie;, out of the con+ flict unscathed, but with honor to themtried everything. For a time he was book-keeper for Lewis Bros, Then he tried journalism; but, eventually, having had considerable experience in that line himself, he thought he would: try to “teach the young idea how to shoot.’”’ There he found his vocation. One step led to another, until now he is Principal of one of the schools here. He is a Democrat, strange tosay, and he has political aspirations. At one time he ran against’ J. W. Anderson for Superintendent of Public Schools here, but was defeated. ‘‘Never despair” is his motto, andI should not be surprised to see him come to the front again. He came within an ace, I am told, of getting the Postmastership away from McCoppin.

Wells, Fargo & Co, have introduced a new. system ip regard to the locking and unlocking of the safes that are carried on their express cars. Messengers are .no longer provided with keys with which , to open the safes, but instead the agents at the different stations are provided with the necessary keys and have to be on hand at the agrival and departure of every express train. A new device has also been adopted which is attached to the locks of safes and no one can turn the lock unless they have the key with which to first remove the attachment. The messengers who travel on the cars have nothing more to do with the opening or closing of safes; it all rests with the station agents. In case a train is stopped by highwaymen the messengers are powerless to unlock the safes, and the robbers will have to use dynamite or some other explosive in order to crack the safes, Geo Profit by Experience. =f -A prudent person is always "cautious about anything unless previous experience has shown what is the best course to pursue, Such people profit not only by their own experience, but also by that of others, The careless, slip-shod individual heeds not his own or other people’s mistakes; but continues to blunder at every turn,.

Aram of Sutter, Yolo and. Yuba led the fight against the bill, saying all the old evils of hydraulic mining with slickens in the rivers would begin immediately after the the appeals were pending. Ford argued the right of appeal was only just and appealed for the passage of the bill in the name and Placer favored the bill, while Hart of Sacramento opposed it. After a long and spirited debate the ‘bill passed by a vote of 27 to 6, and now goes to the Governor for his signature. oe Iururt spices are not only worthless, packed in cans that form rust, “MILLAR’s Penone Spices are absolutely pure and garden grown, and packed in, rust-proof packages.

Saw Francisco, Feb. 25th. My: Deak Transorrer: Shakespeare puts nto the mouth of Macbeth the words: ‘Tomorrow, and tomor rows and. tomorrow, ; Creep in this potty pace ) day to day, . To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays hi: ave lighted fools The way to dusty death.’ * This is his. definition of procrastination. ‘On my list for this letter was the name of David Bentley. But-now, alas! he igs no more, and I must speak of him in the past instead. of in the present tense. Mr, Bentley was.one of our best citizens. He was always geutle and‘mild in his'manners, reserved to a degree; and yet at. times he had such a winning way, :stch a pleasant smile, that [ do not believe ‘‘Dave” Bentley had an enemy in the county. He was employed by Jesse Wall, and was a member of the ‘Paint Shop Club.” For the benefit of your readers who did not reside in Nevada City at the time, I will state that this Cinb was comprised of Nevada City’s ‘Four Hundred,” It'was very cxclusive and no’ one was admitted to its charmed circle without the strongest recommendation. It was a privilege, not a right. It was called the ‘Paint Shop Club” because its parties were given in the paint shop of G. E. Withington, located near the Broad-street bridge. Few remain that swept over the shetlasked floor inthe mazy glide of the waltz or the more stately measure of the The bright eyes are closed forme ! "twas then “Soft eyes looked love to eyes that spake again, And all went merry as-a marriage bell.” But I digress. From Nevada City Mr. Bentley went to Calico and engaged in

merchandising. I don’t think he was suc: He came here événtially, but from my observation I don’t believe he did much. AsJI said, he was very reserved, and no one knew what he did or where he lived, In the directory his occupation is put down as ‘merchant,” with no address. He was a peaceful man—may he rest in peace, : From the dead to the living—it is ‘‘but a few days and full of trouble,” that which we pass, AsI walked along. Montgomery street the other day, deeply thinking, a tall form loomed up before me, and great, big, jolly Watson hove in sight. He had in tow a smaller craft, (it must be understood that Mr. Watson is Port Warden—hence these nautical terms.) Well, the smaller craft proved, on closer inspection, to be no less tian Chas. H. Mitchell, whose home port used to be Grass Vailey; but who, as supercargoof Nevada county’s consignment to the Midwinter Fair, became so infatuated with the beauties of this port, that he conus, even if it must be in the fo’castle instead of in the cabin. For years Mr. Mitchell piloted the destinies of the good ship “Union” of Grass Valley through the shoals, the ‘quicksands and the’ blustering storms of the sea of journalism. In this when the inevitable fell upon the latter Mr, M. wearied of guiding the helm, and about two years ago he confided to other hands floats and long may she continue to. Ag was said of another Union: “Fear not each sudden sound and shock, ’Tis of the wave, and not the rock.’ Mr. Mitchell now seeks another position . in this port. Mr. Watson remarked that he thought the ‘‘sun was over the foreyard,” main-brace was spliced.” I wish to state that the last edition of the ‘“‘Blue Book” of the State errs, Mr. Watson’s term does not expire until a year from next March. I am glad of it, A COUPLE OF EDUCATORS, J. B. McChesney was one of the early educators of Nevada City. He wasa suce cess, and his family was popular in society circles. His wife’s niece, Miss Susie Jewett, was alsoa teacher in our burg, I do not wish to dig up old troubles, but you all remember the Jewett-Hubbard squabble. Suffice it to say, such a thing could not occur now. History compels me to refer to it in general terms, One got married, the other moved ‘away, .and peace once more spread her white wings over the devoted city. If women were voters in those days what a turmoil there would have been! And, speaking of that, allow me to quote from Goldsmith, and paraphrase a little. I declare I won’t digress again, not in this letter, at least. ‘Tl fares the fand, to hast’ning ills a prey, Where woman dominates and men decay,’ -selves, Will Protect me, oh, miost potent paper, from the vials of wrath that will _be.shaiered. upon my devoted head! Well, in time Mc moved to Oakland. It was then a small village and the facilities for reaching it frum this side of the Bay were of the poorest description. But he had faith. He invested all -he had in real estate; he told me he was going to hold on, and, if he did, J. B. McChesney, the Principal, of the Oakland High School, and ‘. whilom of Nevada City, must be a very rich man. } g Long befpre the advent of Stratton, of McChesney} 'o Critténden, of Ciark, of my friends Deal and Preston, and ‘of others too numerous to mention, there moved into the city a family by the name of Stone. It consisted of the father, mother, and one daughter (Johanna, who afterwards married Robt. Bussenius, and now lives in St. Helena), and three sons, John, W. W. and. Adolph. The mother was a Doctress, and for those times had quite an extensive practice. They have all: passed from the’ scene except Johanna and W. W., the subject, of my present writing. At that. time the measly system that tlren existed. Willie found ajsituation with him. He was a good: boy,attentive to business and devoted to hid mother. But the war broke out, ‘and, Will and Adolph enlisted on the Union side. . They canie;, out of the con+ flict unscathed, but with honor to themtried everything. For a time he was book-keeper for Lewis Bros, Then he tried journalism; but, eventually, having had considerable experience in that line himself, he thought he would: try to “teach the young idea how to shoot.’”’ There he found his vocation. One step led to another, until now he is Principal of one of the schools here. He is a Democrat, strange tosay, and he has political aspirations. At one time he ran against’ J. W. Anderson for Superintendent of Public Schools here, but was defeated. ‘‘Never despair” is his motto, andI should not be surprised to see him come to the front again. He came within an ace, I am told, of getting the Postmastership away from McCoppin.

Wells, Fargo & Co, have introduced a new. system ip regard to the locking and unlocking of the safes that are carried on their express cars. Messengers are .no longer provided with keys with which , to open the safes, but instead the agents at the different stations are provided with the necessary keys and have to be on hand at the agrival and departure of every express train. A new device has also been adopted which is attached to the locks of safes and no one can turn the lock unless they have the key with which to first remove the attachment. The messengers who travel on the cars have nothing more to do with the opening or closing of safes; it all rests with the station agents. In case a train is stopped by highwaymen the messengers are powerless to unlock the safes, and the robbers will have to use dynamite or some other explosive in order to crack the safes, Geo Profit by Experience. =f -A prudent person is always "cautious about anything unless previous experience has shown what is the best course to pursue, Such people profit not only by their own experience, but also by that of others, The careless, slip-shod individual heeds not his own or other people’s mistakes; but continues to blunder at every turn,.
