Willard Nichols is not only a good boxer and hard hitter, but he also possesses the accomplishment of building rhymes between times. A short time ago-L. Hyman & Co.; ih return for favors received, presented Nichols with a-suit of clothes. Nichols was very thankful and has-constructed the followed brief-effision for the firm to use in advertising: Having disposed of the sheep, 1 am prépared now more than ever To sell you goods cheep. The place it is useless for me to tell, For that you all know too well. Itis L. HYMAN & CO,, Corner Main and Commercial street; Go there and fit yourself out neat, From your head to your feet. — Appointed by the Trustees. Speaking of Mr;Bank, manager of the Preston School of Industry, the Galt Gazette says: ‘‘ We confess we were opposed, like a great many others in this State, to the idea of going East to Michigan to find a man to manage one of our State institutions and “were inclined te blame Governor Markham in-connection with this-particular appeintment. Whatever prejudices we might have had on this score have been“ fully removed since our meeting and conversation with Mr. Bank. He is the peer of any man whom we have ever heard talk on penelogy and is familiarly acquainted with this science as it is best understood by the advanced minds the world ever.” We are infermed by Hon. E, M, Preston, who ia one of the Trustees of the Preston . _ Beheol of Industry, that Governor Markham . had nothing te do with the appointment of Mr. Bank, but that the Trustees selected him and that they shoulder all responsibilities in connection therewith. ; ee jf LINCOLN AFTER ELECTION, ., . Bile Pathetic Leave Taking of His oid Law Office and Neighbors. I was in 1860 8 reporter on the New York Times and was designated as the one to go to the house of Mr. Ligcoln. IF did so, and subsequently, after the election, I lived at the house-with him for four weeks prior to his going to Washington, and when he went there for the inauguration I accompanied him, I had ample opportunity to atudy him in every relation of life. He was a magnetic talker, an excellent story teller, but above all a syuare inan, to whom two and two made four, all the time, and no amount of trickery could ever make it three and ninety-nine hundredths. He always said precisely what. he thought and nothing else. I remember distinctly the night before he left his home in Springfield. It “was raining desperately. I saw him hunt upa lantern and then get a caridte and put it into thé glass case and light it. He took his old Jong overcoat, ane I thought at that time a funny ng garment, but which I see all the dudes wearing now, and opening the door he went out into the rain and “Gatknéss. I followed him, and we picked our way through the unpaved slippery streets until we got to his office. It was a very little office, There were a stove, some shelves laden with books, and a picture of a judge of the supreme court, and, by the way, I never went intoa lawyer’s office that I did not find.a picture of a judge of the supreme court or of the court of appeals. There is always:aure to be one or the other, Well, when we got there he put his lantern down, and walking up to a table and masing, running his hand over the books there, he said, ‘Well, goodby, old friends,’’ He stood a minute in silence, then furtively. wiped away a tear from his eye, walked out, locked the door, and home he went. That did not amount to much, but it showed that the man had a little sentiment about him. The next day it was raining, great _ guns, bat everybody roundabout for 20 miles had turned out to sée the president elect start for Washington. I remember him as he stood just undcr the eave of the house wearing his old high hat and‘the water dripping down ppon it from above. The crowd wanted a speech, and_be gave it to them. It was. brief and-was about like this—that-for-. —-reasons beyond his understanding he had_ been to bear whzt he feared was a bhrden greater than that which had tebe pat upon the shoulders of any citizen since this country was started, save possibly Washington, and all he had to say was: *‘If I have offeuded any of you, forgiveme. Igo to do my best. I ask your prayers. Friends and neighbors, goodby. I hope to see’ 6008 nin,’’ He started away. Evérybody cried, and the rain was coming down, und he never went back again.—Joe Howard's Lactuge on Journalism. Oe eg -_ ~ TO SUPPRESS SLANG. An Organization Proposed Among the Young Folks. There is some talk among the young men of Marysville, says the Democrat, of organ— izing an Anti-Slang Club. _Whata splendid idea? And how appropriately appropriate would it be to have the chafter open to both sexes—married and single ? Could anyone’ be offended at such a course ? Certainly not, There is no denying the fact that the English language in America will soon not be English, Especially in California is it losing its identity. And witha ¢lub such is proposed for this city there will -be some hope ef redeeming from disfigurement the Anglo-Saxon of our forefathers, Then it might-be possible te hear a sentence from the California mother free from a slangy expression._—Hoew often do we hear the little ones addressed by the theughtless parent as ‘‘kid”—and in turn the parent spoken of as ‘tthe old man,” or, ‘the old woman?” ‘Then the ‘‘take a tumble” and the ‘‘get next'to yourself,” of the schoolboy, or the ‘come off the perch” of the school-girl, certainly needs-discotragement,The practice has already gone too far and certainly cannot receive the popular frown any too quick. In many. Eastern cities clubs for the suppression of slang have met with decided success. The members from the start take a liking to the practice of confining themselves to the. pure Anglo-Saxon. They find that the casting aside of the objéction‘Jable parlance makes them better conversationalists; makes them studious and ever on the alert to add a pure word to their vocabulary. The' gentlemen member of tlie Anti-Slang Club soon discovers that his company is desireable as his vocabulary beeomes extended. And in turn the isis member finds that she commands thé respect of the sterner sex in a far higher degree than ever before. She soon is convinced that the change is for the better. For « time itis found « veritable task. te part with the slangy expression of the times. But a system of fines, which a part of the by-laws of each-glub, soon brings about the desired result. By all means let Nevada City try the experiment, There is a good field for the proposed change, and the relief secieties would be benefited by the accruing fines. ~ee+ A Muightly Greeting. DEATH OF A YOUNG MAN. James ddiveus Dead. Chronicle; ; James Stevens, .a ‘musician and miner, who lived on the, Cc Oinsteck for many years, died in Butte C ity, Montana, Mondhy. A telegram was received at Virginia City stating that his death resulted from pneumonia. He Expired While in Pleasant Conversation With His Relatives.

On Sunday evening he was seated in. the parlor of the Phelan residence apparently in the best of spirits. He joined his aunt and cousins inconversation and laughter until suddently the attention of the party was attracted to a peculiar twitching of his hands. Then his body showed signs of con~ vulsions and he was aided to a couch, where he died, without speaking a word, in about ten minutes. Mrs, Phelan procured a certificate of-death from Justice of the Peace G. W. Johnson. The document states that young Webb died from natoral causes. The remains were conveyed to the undertaking parlors of R. -E. Bevan in this city last evening and at» an early heur this morning were taken to Auburn in a wagon.
