By Carrier, eos 12 1-2c Per Week a sakeesunag-to ee sVectacap evs’ June 1121902 AN Up-to-Date City. N EASTERN GENTLEMAN, who has traveled considerably over, California since his arrival in this State, recently came to Nevada City and spoke many flattering words for the prosperity of out mountain city and the enterprise of its people. Among other things of a complimentary nature which he said in the hearing of a TRANSCRIPT reporter, whose business occupation the gentleman had“tiot. been informed of, was this: “Since coming to California I have traveled extensively over the State and visited about all‘the principal towns, making a careful note of the present condition and future outlook of each place. Asa general rule, every interior town in the State has awakened to the great possibilities which lies before it, a Chamber of Commerce or a Board of Trade. i has been organized and active work commenced for development* and progress, and the future of all places look very promising and encoaraging. But I will say this for Nevada City, which is true, for I do not believe in unmerited praise. Without exception your city is the most progressive I have seen for its size, and some of the recent improvements made to your resident part of the town reminds me very forcibly of those employed in many of our Eastern cities, as they are up-to-date, attractive and of a permanent character. I refer to the discarding of wooden sidewalks and fences and substitution of clean cement pavement and coping in their places, the pretty lawns: and hedges, the modern ‘ideas and architectural beauty employed in the erection of new residences and the remodeling of others, and so on. One thing especially I have noticed for which due credit should be given, and that is the pleasing absence of the disagreeable ‘knockers’ so numerous in-other places.” [Here the reporter could not help exclaiming: “Thank God for that!] Con_ tinuing, the gentleman said: ‘Your people all look confident happy and prosperous, and there is no reason whatever why your-city, with its specially favored and vast miaeral resources at hand, your agricultural and fruit-raising advantages, your energetic Chamber of Commerce and co-operative dnd progressive people, should not become the largest and most prosperous interior city in Northern California.” PPP PRE HR PH RB Feminine Ingenuity. HREE WOMEN got out of the New York State Reformatory a few days ago, and though the keepers are reticient about it, it is said that the women picked the lock with a fork, and thus made their escape. If this be so, it is good reason enough why the authorities hould not want to talk. Any institution intended to keep people from getting out, which has locks that can be opened by a woman with a fork, ought to be shrouded in silence for the present. Otherwise there is nothing so very surprising in the incident. The crowning characteristic of woman, some people think, is her ability to get results with implements not intended for the purpose to which she applies them. Doubtless oné reason why the women in penal institutions are required to wear their hair short is that there is no known thing that a woman cannot do with a hairpin. If this precaution had been neglected, all the inmates of the New York reformatory would probably now be roving wild and free, because they would have used their hairpins for keys. A woman can drive nails with a flatiron, a brick, a stone, a stove-lifter, or the heel ef her. slipper; and she can take tacks out of acarpet with the handle of an iron spoon or the back of a knife-blade. The only objection to a woman being a carpenter would probably be that she would never use the proper tool when the wrong one happened to be nearer, and so there would be no prestige about her. We all know that prestige: is one of the great money-making agents of the world, and it is irrevocably ruined when the mechanic admits that anything but the very best tools will do for the work he has in hand. This is a matter for the woman’s rights associations to for their work,-and get them. This will make household labor more dignified, but it will also make it considerably eee A Suicide rors ogo 3.
