CapETown, March asth, 6 o’clock, p. m.—Cecil Rhodes died peacefully this afternoon. . \ 4 “Taster Decorations : * HE CHURCHES OF NEVADA CITY enjoy an enviable reputation at home and abroad for their beautiful appearance which they make on Easter _ » Sunday ‘when embellished and decorated with ihe choicest and most beautiful of California flowers and ferns. While it is true that when Easter comes early and the warm Spring is a little backward in making its appearance that there may be a scarcity of garden flora in our mountain city, which sometimes, happens, the emergency is met and overcome by the use of some of Nevada City’s most beautiful hot-house productions and by the addition of lovely and seasonable flowers imported ffom the lower altitudes of the State. Strangers: who have visited’ our churches on Easter occasions have been profuse in deserved praise of their charming appearance and have. bestowed lavish compliments on those whose artistic eyes and hands had been instrumental in producing such. soul-inspiring beauty and grandeur in the houses of worship. = : Easter Sunday this year will be no exception to the rule and those who attend the Methodist, Congregational, Episcopal or Catholic churches next Sunday will see the interior of the edifices adorned with a profusion of the brightest and prettiest of Nature’s gifts—the emblems of immortality. , PPPPr EP RHP DH — An Ideal Winter. “HE PAST WINTER, which seems“to be ended as far as tle severity of the storms is concerned, has been an ideal one to the majority of the people of 7 this section of Nevada County. While there is deep vi ~ snow. in Meadow Lake, Graniteville, Moore’s Flat and other sections of the county, ranging all the way from twenty to two feet in depth, only an inch or two of snow has fallen in Nevéda City, and this has disappeared about as rapidly as it came. This fact proves that Nevada City is just inside the general snowline; for unless the storm is unusually cold and severe we get but a flurry of the fleecy whiteness. The past winter has been a good one for gravel miners and agriculturists as the supply of moisture has been quite bounteous and regular, giving a big supply of water. presence of a great quantity The of snow in the higher mountains at this season of the year give promise aud assurance of a liberal supply of water during the summer season for irrigation and for providing ample electrical power and for turning the wheels of tha machinery of our various mines. After several weeks of hard endeavor the Eureka Express Comipany have managed.to break the road from Moore’s Flat to Graniteville, but from the latter place to other higher points the roads will probably remain closed for some time and travel interfered with. To stage men and travelers, and perhaps to some of the residents of these sections, the deep snow is a source of inconvenience and discomfort, but to the people of this county it is one of God’s greatest blessings. New Chief of Police Stoceton, March 25—Last night the Board of Pelice and Fire Commissioners appointed O. H. McGurk Chief of Police, to fill the unexpired term of John D: Gall, who resigned the first of the year. For three months the matter bas been a eomplete deadlock, as the members of the Commission could not come to an agreement, owing to the large number of candidates for the position. Mr. McGark is a well kpoown Democrat, and very popular ip this city. Scauleiaatmesateniaemmemmmmnemmmmmmemee For Sale. A high gradé Lefiner shotgun. 12 ‘gauge, with caee and cleaning tools.

Rass, Walter Sandholt, Wm. Woodard, Miss Geo, TOURISTS BOOK, cece We Can Get It If We Reach Out For It. Geo. W. Dornin, ex-Assemblyman of Nevada Oounty and who resided at North San Juan for many years, is now a member of the Council of Oakland. He has just returned from Los Angeles, and he says: “There are 45,000 tourists now inthe southern part of California, and they are spending at least $250,000 a day there for tourist travel alone. Besides many who come decide to invest and do so, purchasing land for homes, orchards; vineyards; etc.” . Nevada County has a better climate, better land, better water supply, better gold mines, and better everything else than any part of Southern Oalifornia. But, who in thander knows anything about it, except those who live here and the few tourists who have dropped in to visit friends. It has always been our fate te manage in some way te cover our heads under a bushel basket, so to speak. Our people should remember that God helps those who help themselves, and if they want a share 6f the Soutbern Oalifornia prosperity they mast dig out of the hole they are now in. Tene of thousands of dollars have been spent io advertising that section and Nevada County has not expended'a bean. Is it not time te get a move on? If nothing else can be done we would suggest that arrangements be made to have a Los Angeles man come here for a few hours or days and start a touriste’ boom forthiesection. If we have not got enough backbone te do it oureelves we should call somebody in, even if it lisa Ohinaman, if he can bring prosperity te our doors, May Now Stop At Coliax Jodge J, M. Walling of this city has received the following reply to a letter to the Seuthernm Pacific Railroad Company in relation to having the coloniat tlokets good for a stop-over at Oolfax: San Franoisco, March 26, 1901. ; Hon.

Orovitiz, March 24-—A deal has just been concluded whereby the Bay Oounties Power Oompany acquires full title te all the water rights and ditch systems of the Cherokee Mining Oompany. The Oherokee system consists of a great chain of ditches, pipe-lines and foverted siphons, with extensive water rights. -It was built to supply water to the famous Spring Valley bhydraulic mine at Cherokee iv thie county, one of the great mines of the world. ‘Three thousand inches of water, which is now carried across the west branch of Feather river by an inverted siphon, will be diverted to a poist whence it will have a fall of 1600 feet to Butte creek and here a plant will be built that will exceed in power possibilities any power plant on the coast. Twelve thousand horse power can be developed here, and as the water enters the creek at a point above the dam, which diverts the water of that creek to the preeent power house lower, it will add about 4,500-horse power to the capacity of that plant which was lately acquired by the Bay Counties Oompany, and 000-horse power on Butte creek.

SUT SITU. The Blue Gravel Mine Will Now Be Re-Opened. The sult of J. W. Relley vs. Patrick Campbell which has been pending in the Superior Court for a long number of years has been brought to a close and the case settled, as the following order made thie merning by Judge F. T. Nilon gods te show: “J, W. Relley vs. Patrick Oampbell et al. Ordered that above entitled action be dismissed, and sureties on undertaking on appeal filed August 80, 1899,, be, and the same are hereby releaged from further liability hereinafter incurred. Judgment against P. Oampbell is satisfied.” For several years a bitter legal battle has been waged by Dr. Relley agaiust Patrick Campbell and the Blue Point Mining Oompany. Fifteen years ago the plaintiff loaned defendant $16,700, taking therefor a mortgage on the Blue Point Gravel mine. Relley commenced suit in 1899 to recover his money, and later secured: judgment in the Superior Court for the amount of mortgage and interest. Defendante then appealed fo the Supreme Oourt where the case has been hanging fire for some time, Now a compromise has been reached whereby Weissbein Bros., the Grass Valley bankers, have secured possession of the Inining property and have settled Dr, Relley’a claim, as well as all others against it.; The amount up to date which was due Dr. Relley was $24,900.04, Other claims amounted to about $15,000, bringing the total indebtedness up to $45,000. Joseph Weissbein informed the TRANSORIPT reporter that the new own‘ers would put the property’ in good sbape and start up the mine in full blast. Thie will mean mvch to the tewns of Mooney Fiat and Smarteville and cause them to resume their -former liveliness. RIGE ARRESTED, Caught at. Vallejo This Morning. .
