Nevada City Militiamen to Have a Rat: tling Reception, The Record-Union of yesterday says: ‘ a _ Company O, Second Infantry, NG. C., Nevada City’s crack military organization, is marching.on Sacramento,, and will be here in time to help celebrate the nation’s birthday. . The boys spent Friday night at Auburn, where a ball was given in their honor, and they are now between that place and Sacramenfo. It is proposed to give the mountain boys a rousing reception, and at 10:30 o'clock last night Company G started to meet them and escort them into the city. Company G, which was accompanied by a detail of the local Signal Corps, camped at Arcade last. night, and will today move on in the direction of Roseville until they meet Company C. Troop B, cavalry, will leave this morning and will also march to meét the soldiers from the mining district, when. al? three organizations will return together. Itis probablethat they will not reach this city until early Tuesday morning, unless they seize a railroad train and ride in. The Signal Corps will form a station on the dome of the Capitol, and heliographic communications will be kept open with the squad of signalmen who marched with Company G. Shortly before midnight a. telephone message announced that the local troops had reached Morrison’s wayside _inn, about-two miles out of town, and had hopes of getting as far as Arcade before daylight. The commissary wagon and water tank was then struggling along in the rear, which made it bad forMorrison, who had just laid in a beer supply for Sunday, with the brewery two miles away. The message concluded with the statement that the soldiers had stood the march from town in good shape, were having a fine time and that some had suggested camping there for the & night, which would give the supply train a chance to catch up with them. So-farthere has been no indication of mutiny. : eee _The-€ounty Supervisors. The County Supervisors met this morning for the summer term.
