Reminiscent. — AMES MARRIOTT, an “old-timer” of Nevada County and a former resident of North Bloomfield, who for a number of yeagg has been residing at Osceola, White Pine county, Nevada, has written a letter to a friend in this city, which is reminiscent of old times. “Jim” rejoices at the fact that there is still a number of his pioneer friends and old acquaintances~still living, and extends his kind regards and best wishes to all of them. Among the names of those whom he mentions we find the following: Dr. R. M. Haunt, Geo. C, Gaylord, A. R, Lord, E. J. Rector, Judge F. T. Nilon, Hon. E. M. Preston, C. J, Brand, Wm. H. Crawford, Nat P. Brown, Judge Searls, Henry Guenther, Geo. E. Turner, James Chivell, L. Hyman, W. J. Organ, Geo. Shaw, Harvey Cooper, A. Tam, Rev. J. Sims, Chas. E. Mulloy, Joho Webber and other well known citizens, all of whom, Mr. Marriott says, “in days gone by were hale fellows-well met.” ‘May they be so still, and for many years to come,” he writes, “and may the year we have just entered’ upon bring to each and every one renewed health, happiness, contentment and Plenty. May they and theirs know naught of the weariness or lonesomeness of life’s journey for many years to come.” Mr. Marriott’s many friends will be pleased to hear that he is still in the land of the living, and will greatly appreciate the kind wishes he has expressed in the foregoing words. They unanimously tender him their best wishes for continued life, happiness and prosperity. aa4ea24e4446 44 A Bright Outlook. HE MINING OUTLOOK FOR THIS DISTRICT never looked brighter than it does at the present time, Nearly all of the old mines that have been lying idle, all the way from thirty years down to within a few years since, are being “taken into camp,” so to speak, and will be reopened in a thorough and up-to-date manner. The parties who are to take hold of them are capitalists who have abundant means to carry forward the work required for opening up or developing these properties, In a short tite it will be a surprise to many of our people to know that several of the most prominent capitalists in San Francisco have taken a financial interest in two different mines in this section—mines that require large capital and that have not had a pick in them for many years. The aforesaid statement is no vague rumor or idle talk, as the TRANSCRIPT has been given good authority and received reliab## information concerning these ventures. Not only is there to be many of the old established mining properties reopened this spring, but there is to bea number of new mines prospected and developed, some of which have already given evidences of becoming goodpaying and permanent properties. During the past week we have published detailed accounts of the work proposed to be done on some of these new claims, together with other information concerning their condition and development. Perhaps there has never been a winter for many years past in which there has been so much planning and preliminary work done for the re-opening of old claims and the starting up of new ones in this vicinity as there has been during the past few months, and it is probable that there will be still more done on other properties, The outlook for the coming spring and summer for great activity in mining is indeed very promising and bright, and we should not be surprised if there would be more miners given employment in this vicinity during the coming summer than had been employed in a great many years. We would not have it understood however, that there will be room for the miners who might come here from abroad in search of work, as there are enough idle men at present in this viciwity-to fill all the requirements for many months to come. On the whole the future of the mining industry of Nevada District looks very flattering. The resources are here and with the advent of unlimited capital and the proper management of our numerous mining properties, this county would enter upon an era of unprecedented prosperity of a lasting and permanent character. = SS The Baby Is Dead.

A the , a Sinaia Ss ne Nevada City: Special School Tax a Thing Of the Past. The school bonds in this district, jwhich were issued in the sum of $10,000 five years ago, have all been paid off. They were taken up at the rate of $2000 each year and the interest coupons likewise cancelled. The amount collected on the special taxation for the fiscal year of 1900-01 liquidated the last payment of $2200, and the district is now free from any assessment of this character, The last payment was made on the Grass Valley school bonds laet year, the only special taxes to be levied are in the Meadow Lake district. The school special taxes there are fixed at the rate of thirty-five cents on each $100. The High School at Tiuckee is now ander good headway, and an efficient corps of teachers are employed, namely, Misses Mertie R. Thompson, Lena Macaulay and Mary E. Green. The amount of assessable property in the district is upwards of $1,500,000, and the sum of $3500 is now on hand, which will be used for the erection of a High School building next summer. There is also a special fire tax at [rackee, which is levied on the property within the town limits, and a good volanteer department is maintained there right along. Baseball Game. Auburn Republican: Grass Valley and Nevada Uity have the baseball fever, and it is likely each town will be represented on the diamond next season. Efforts will be made within a few weeks to sound public sentiment as to . the propriety of organizing a team in Aubern. A series of games would make things lively during the summer and bring visitara to this city. With the formation of an amateur league consisting of Grass Valley, Nevada City, Newcastle and Auburn the keenest rivalry would be. engendered and the monetary euccess of such an organizatson almost a certainty, [Hi Henry Not Coming Hi Henry’s celebrated minstrels, which were to have appeared at the theatre here soon, have changed their route on ccount of not being able to secure a date at Grass Valley, and therefore will not be seen’ here this season. e@e oe Toe Amputated. Drs. C. LL. Muller and A. H. Tickell amputated the big toe on Jesse Lyons’ left foot at his home in Willow Valley this morning. Gangrene had set in and it was found necessary to take the toe off. Condensations. George W. Hegarty came down from Lake City today. Attention is dirceted to the notice to contractors in this evening’s TranSCRIPT asking for bids to runa fiftyfoetdrift at the Lecompton mine. Miss Nellie Joyce of this city lost a valuable diamond ring last evening. She was in attendance at Laurel Parlor of Native Duaughtere,and did not notice her loss ‘until she returned home. There is no reason for anyone in this city having a watch.or clock which does not keep perfect time for at small cost they can have them fixed by Hartung Bros., who gu:rantee all of their work. They also have for sale a nice lot of time pieces. Read their new advertisement in this evening’s TRANSCRIPT. Wrong Kind. When Pennsylvania Engine Company, No. 2, had their sew hose wagon built in Marysville last Summer, it was understocd that the fire laddies were to receive three nickel-plated Spanners, A delay in sending up the articles was caused for some reason or -other, and today Ohbief Engineer E. W, Schmidt reccived three epanners, but they are not of the nickel-plated kind. Os the contrary, they are just plain, old iron ones, aud covered with thick red paint. ; Emma Nevada, Emma Nevada, the famous singer who was boro in this county, is. to soon make atour of this Uoast witb her excellent company, and her agent bas written to Manager Jacobs to try and make a date for her at thie:local theater.

Mr. George Cooper, one of Nevada's oldest and most respected citizens has passed away. He has paid the debt from which no one can secure an exemption, He was a native of the State of Maine, and was born in the township of Newcastle. 2 During ‘his early manhood he was clerk for his uncles who were shipbuilders and owners in Gardner, Maine. In 1853 he came to Oalifcrnia, settled in this county and mined fora while in the neighborhood of Huut’s Hill, in conjunction with A, H. Turner and others. He tubsequently went into the lugiber business with which he was most familiar. Under his supervision the forests.of our county became denuded of their most stately giante. and the Cooper m‘ll became an institation of estab!ished reputation. Mr. Cooper was a business man ef cautious forethought,. and his reputation for honesty and manly integrity has never been questioned. “He wasa man of social tendencies and genial qualities to an extent that made him a general favorite among all his associates. He was trusted and admired by the aged and beloved by the young; babitually inclined to place the best construction upon the doings of mankind, and never set himself up asa censor to condemn. His k nd words and genial smiles, coupled with his gemerous and = disinterested deeds never failed to attract, while never willingly by word or look did-he hurt the feelings of others, For some five years his health had been failing—heart weakness seems to have been the primary cause, At the time of his death he had arrived at the honored old age of seventy-seven years. are Mrs, J.S.

By local. applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf. ness, and that is by constitutional remedies, Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflam mation ean: be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever ; nine case out of ten are caused by catarrb, which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the mucous surfaces, We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrb) that cannot be cured by Hall’s ‘ atarrh Cure.

Pedro evidently thought he was going to be “held up”; for he became frightened and started to run. The officer fired one shot, which struck the pavement and glanced upward, entering the small of the back of the fleeing man. A large . force of policemen sursounded the district and found the’ dead body of Pedro two hours later, near the corner of Seventh and Valencia. He evidently had run until he dropped dead from loss of blood. ine SCHOOL MONEY, [Fe Panama Figu.
