FUN FOR THE FOURTH, Preparing For One of the Finest Celebrations Ever Held Here. Those people who have been saying that they were afraid this year’s celebration at Nevada City would be a failure did not know what they were talking about. The fact is it will be one of the best we have ever had. The general committee had a meeting last night at the City Hall and had reports from the sub-committees that were highly satisfactory. ‘ $837 has been subscribed to date and more is likely to be added. Most of this money has been coflected. A platform 156 by 50 feet in dimensions is to be erected—probably on Pine street between Broad and Commercial. An awning will be stretched over it and here the literary exercises are to take plac in the forenoon and there is to be a free dance at night. A committee of Nevada City Lodge, No. 52,\A. O. U. W., held a meeting last night and decided that the lodge turn out in the parade. ‘They will be headed by their drill team, carry a large banner and wear a uniform of black trousers, white shirts, light hats and dusters. As the lodge has some 300 members it is expected that there will be a large turnout. The baseball players of the Seaweed club will be in the Fourth of July procession. : Eagie Hose Co., No. 3, heid a special meeting last night and decided to turn out. Their uniform will be black trousers, a red shirt and a white hat. Hon. George E. Church, the orator, will arrive here from Fresno on Monday afternoon’s train. He will be-met at the station by the literary committee and escorted to his hotel. That evening an informal reception will be held at the hotel-in his honor under the management of Mountain Company,U. R. K. of P.,the distinguished visitor being’ a very prominent Knight. This reception will be participated in by the general public, and the Knights of Sherwood Forest will be specially invited to attend in full uniform. The holding of the literary exercises in the open air instead of at the theater is a wise change, as it will enable several thousand people instead of the 700 or 800 who could crowd into the theater to hear the famous orator. Judge Church has a clear, penetrating voice and his magnetic eloquence will insure the undivided attention of the vast throng he is to address. His speeches excite the admiration and awaken the entbusiasm of the old and young of all classes and conditions. ‘The orator of the west possesses such a remarkable faculty of saying so much in a given time and yet saying it so well. He has the incisive originality of Chauncey Depew and the glowing eloquence that made the fame of Edward Everett immortal, : + e@e + A Good Field Here. There isa party claiming to represent a Chicago scheme called the “Iilustrated Educational History and Enterprises of California,” going the rounds, getting people to pay fat prices for the publication of “sketches” and pictures that will tickle their vanity. The county officers of Placer are on his list. He will probably be this way soon. Nevada county is generally good plucking for these games. ———_ + -2@e-+ —Picnic Weather. The weather bureau forecaster predicted showers for this afternoon and tonight, and that it will be cloudy and cool tomorrow, as it is this forenoon. What Is Shiloh ?

As éach mining district may now prescribe forms of notice not inconsistent with the Federal law, a uniform style of notice is very important. Last evening Sheriff Getchell appointed the following gentlemen to act as Deputy Sheriffs at the picnic today: E.T. R. Powell, W. G. Richards, Fred Zeitler, W.H. Martin, D. S. Baker, E. J. Rector, Henry Lane, D. J. Stevens, Mrs. Jolin Treanor, the -motper .of several children and the wife of a good citizen; was arrested last night by Ofticer Fowler.

The young ladies and gentlemen of the class are showing much enterprise and originality in their preparations, and. it is a foregone conclusion that their party will be a great success. They are disposing of a large number of tickets and a good attendance is insured. De Vries in Nevada County. Yesterday's Auburn Republican says: Congressman Marion De Vries came.up from Stockton Monday night and was a guest at the Hotel Conroy. On Tuesday Mr. De Vries drove to the Garnier.mine, over the line in Nevada county, in which he is interested. The mine is now known as the Baltimore. He returned to Stockton Tuesday afternoon.

Likely to Accomplish Great Results For the Mining Industry: How general the application of the cyanide process will become. is a matter for the future to determine. In its early history it was thought, accord-’ ing to the Mining and Scientific Press, that it could be successfully applied to almost every class of ore, but it was soon demonstrated that this was nota fact; the tide turned in the other dfrection and it was then thought that its range of application was limited to a few ores particularly adapted’ to it. Since then several years of experiment and successful application has broad-. ened its field of operation very materially and at this time it cannot be said with assurance that it will not cover a In no other place, perbaps, has an absolute confidence in its ultimate success been demonstrated than in Montana. After repeated and expensive failure every difficulty has. been vercame in several localities, and ‘where first it was an obsolute failure it is now an unqualified success.Experiments are constantly being made in the chemistry of the process and in its mechanical application. It has long since become evident that no one method will make it applicable to all ores or all conditions, bat. the process is a rational one and one which will not only endure, but will find much improvement in the future. The precipitation of gold on _ shavings, threads and granulated particles of zinc is not all that can be desired, but improvements may be anticipated in this branch of the process. Electricity, in some modification of the process, is already playing an important part and further development may be looked for in this direction. ae: Slimes of the most dense and im-' pervious characters are now successfully treated by agitation and decantation where vacuu:n filters and pressure tanks failed absolutely to produce the desired results. ‘The contrivance used to secure a uniform agitation of the pulp is an ingenius device—the outcome of the necessities of the case. These are only isolated examples which exemplify the fertility of resources of the men who have made and are still making the history of the cyanide process. canal — Restores VITALITY, NERVITA “2a AND MANHOOD Cures Impotency;Night Emissions and wasting diseases, all effects of self) abuse, Or excess and indiscretion.

A correspondent of the Grass Valley Tidings-Telegraph says: Twenty-five . yéars ago when copper was quoted at about 15cents per pound the region be. tween the Downey House and Spence-. ville and from thence north to Mooney . Flat. swarmed with prospectors. No; fess than one hundied locations of copper were made and the prospects were. excellent for a permanent boom in copper mining. Then copper fell to sucha . price that the prospectors become dis. couraged and abandoned their claims . as they did in many places in the United States. Now with copper: touching the price of 20 cents with the prospect of going to 25 cents within a year, there seems no! reason why prospeciing for copper in! the Spenceville district shall not be! revived, The ore is there and in pay-. ing quantities. Both geologists and miners all agree in this. All that is'. needed is a smelter to set the ball rolling and aguin fill the woods with prospectors. Other towns have the advantages of , being county seats, or railroads termi-. nuses, or rich agricultural resources, but Grass Valley must always depend . ‘for its prosperity oh tke prospector. . -& big population is not ulways proof of commercial prosperity but lots of, prospeccing always brings business . prosperity. It circulates money, which . means abundant business. There are other mining towns throughout the State that have long pay rolls but were never in the same ¢élass as Grass Valley, because there was no general prospecting in their neighborhood. New Almaden, Angels Oamp. and Forbestown are illustrations. All over: the United States there are other exam‘ples of the rule that mining towns de. pend for their commercial prosperity on the prospector. It isas certain as the law of gravitation: and: as uncontrollable. ; We have abundant local capital in Grass Valley, interested in real estate and in the future of our city. The revived copper prospects will afford them an opportunity to do what they have been doing for a score of years—encouraging the prospector with capital and credit. I for one look for a ‘great advance in this direction and that too in the neer future, Me The bimetallists are always telling us that Mexico, with its.45-cent dollar and low-paid labor, is the most prosperous nation on the: globe. Nevertheless, now that Mexico is about to issue $100,000,000: of bonds running forty-five years it is required to pay 5 per cent . . interest and pledge its customs’ re-' ceipts as sécurity. . No doubt President McKinley would be glad to withdraw American troops from Quba as soon as he can do so honorably, under the pledge made by. Congress at the beginning of the war; but he cannot do so until there is at least a begins of stable government. ORE AREA “We gaged a naval hero to lecta efore our lyceum, but at the last mt he disappointed us.” “Were tks put out?” “Put out! Why, they eso angry they. rushed right on the”platform and kissed the chairman!” Baffalo’s new Union Railroad station, to cost $6,000,090, is to have a waiting room 80x285 feet, said to be the largest in the world: The other accessories and the train shed arragements are on the same liberal scale. ooo “The Nebraska Legislature has enacted a law that children under ten may not work in factories or stores, and, those under fourteen must not work unless they have attended school twenty weeks of the year. mee ‘ An old editor of the Moore’s geography delarés that “Albany has four hundred dwelling houses and twentyfour hundred inhabitants, all standing with their gable-ends to the street.” , The Canadian “Dry Goods Review” says American manufacturers of silk and felt hats are cutting out the English goods in the Dominion.
