Machormich, one of the oldest and most favorably known residénts of this end of the county, diéd in Boca Wednesday night of pneumonia. He was a native of Maine and 58 years of age. He came here thirty-one years ago and for a few years followed logging for the sawmills.. Later he and Charles Robinson built a sawmill .on Alder Creek and constructed the lumher flume which ran down to the railroad on this side of Prosser creek. The mill and flume have now fallen into decay. The venture was not a financial success. After that he began logging for the Boca Mill Company and superintended that work as long as the mill was run and since that time he had been employed as an iceman at Boca, and it was while at work on the Prosser Creek pond that he contracted the cold that developed ipto pneumonia, causing death. There: are scarcely any of the old-timers here who worked around sawmills that were not some time in his employ and he is spoken of by them in most praiseworthy terms. He was always good to him. Two grown sons survive him. He was formerly a member of Donner Lodge, I. O. O. F. ——__—+-0@e Controversy Over Brunswick Stock. J. J.

Sometig Aout the Original Old Build ing Down in !ouisiana. Apropos of the coming of the John . . Stowe Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Mrs, Stowe’s greatest work, a short history of the original cabin may be of interest. The people, about Nachitoches, La., have long insisted that Robert McAlpin was the original Simon Legree. His house and plantation were the . ones fitting the description in the book, {on or near the Red river, and the only man in the State who “filled the bill.” He was intemperate and merciless and died before the war, leaving a memory for brutality that is even now mentioned with horror. On his place lived a faithful old negro, sold from Ken. tucky, who suffered everything but actual torture to death, and Mr. Chopin, . ” the present. wealthy owner of the estate, has preserved the cabin with great care, in the confident belief that in time it would become an object of natural curiosity. The cabin is of cyprus logs, covered with cyprus bogrds, and ag sound as when built, some forty . years ago. It is presumed that Mrs. Stowe used the novelist’s privilege of combining the experience of several negroes in one, but simply as a relic of old slave times the reproduction of this cabin will present great interest at the performance in Nevada City next Saturday afternoon and evening. —— ——_+-2@0Byington Still Gaining.
