LOCAL SPORTSMEN ORGANIZ
The Nevada City Gun Clad Was Formed
Last Night.
The Nevada City Gun Club was organized last evening at an enthusiastic
" meeting of some of the leading sportsmen of the county seat, and the following officers were elected: Frank S.
Morgan, President; A. B, Wolf, Secretary; E. W. Schmidt, Treasurer. The
membership is to be limited to fifteen,
and almost that number of names are
already on the roll.
The Club have sent to San Francisco
for traps and bluerocks and the first
shoot will be held a week from~next
Sunday if the weather is favorable
then.
An effort will be made to secure the
old Rifle Grounds near the Half Mile
House property, used as a range for so
many years by Company C,N.G.C,
and it is thought there will be no difficulty in makipg the necessary arrangements,
There are a number of skilled marksmen in the new Club, and as soon as
they get inte thorough working trim
they will endeavor to arrange a series
of match trap-shoots with the gentlemen of the Grass Valley Sportsmen’s
Club.
How to be Rich in 1000 Years.
Much amusement has been caused in
Birmingham by the arrival of a check
for £10 at the Lord Mayor’s office under the following circumstances:
A few weeks ago it was desited to acquire land upon which _to—extend the
Council House. The site could not be
got freehold, but a 999 years’ leage was
given. To this Alderman Manton ob.
jected, and pleaded that at the end of
the lease the buildings would revert to
the ground landlord, and £5,000,000 in
ground rent would have been spent in
vain.
Mr. Alexander Chance accordingly
sent a £10 check to the Lord Mayor, to
be invested for 999 years at -2'5 per
cent. At the end of the period this
would yield £58,899,000,000, or an income yearly of £200,000,000. ‘This sum,
Mr. Chance waggishly suggested, would
recoup Birmingham for the sum expended on ground rent.
When interviewed, Mr. Chance said
he was quite serious. ‘When the time
comes,” he said, “there will be no rates
to pay, and every citizen will live ina
suburban villa provided and lighted by
the municipality.”

The late Prince Bismarck’s barber is
said to be well on the way to making
his fortune, for he has saved no less
than eight years’ clippings from his
master’s hair. ‘These he is now dividing
into small quantities and creasing
them in gold brooches, scarfpins and
lockets, allowing three hairs to each
ornament, aud selling them to the public. The barber states that he had the
late Prince’s permission to do this.

/ KICKED BY A HORSE,
Elisha Penrose Was Badly Hurt at
Cherokee. This Morning.
Elisha Pesnrose of North Bloomfield
was kicked by a fractious horse at
Cherokee this morning. The animal’s
hoof struck him a terrific blow iu the
breast. He managed to stagger from
the stable to the-hotel, a distance of a
hundred yards er less, and then collapsed. ‘
A telephone message was sent to
North Bloomfield for Mrs. Penrose and
Dr. du. Milieu and they hastened to
him. :
Mr. Penrose has. been hauling lumber from the Snow Tent sawmill to'a
mine near Cherokee,

last Saturday.
A war social with a war program and
a war supper will be given at Downieville by the Epworth League Friday
evening, the 24th iustant. :
George M. York and Will R. Sharkey
have sold the Downieville Enterprise
to the Downieville Messenger: They
say: “Next -week will witness our retirement from the newspaper field.
Our reasons for the same are best
known to ourselves, but. suffice it to
say that during the brief time we have
been at the helm of the Enterprise our
fullest expectations bave been realized.
All advertising contracts entered. into
by us, and which-have not. yet. expired,
will be carried out by the Messenger.
Our subseribers who have paid us in
advance, as well as those who have not,
will be turned over to the Messenger
and will receive their paper regularly.
31 ANl bill due the Enterprise from Nov.
9, 1898, to March 8, 1899, are p#yable
to.us.”A most shocking accident occurred
at Forest City last Saturday morning
about 9:30 o’clock, in which Frederick
Kuhfield lost his life. The deceased,
with his partnera young man named
+ McGregor, were workiug. in a gravel
mine when a cave occurred which completely buried Mr. Kuhfie!d, and came
very near burying ‘both men. Mr. McGregor, however, managed to escape
with only a few scratches,and gave the
alarm. A force of men were quickly
on the scene and the effort. to rescue
the buried man was begun in earnest
and—prosecuted—with_all_possible dispatch, and after about two hours was
completed but not until life had become extinct. Mr. Kuhfield was born
at Mecklinburg, Germany, February
28th, 1832, und immigrated to Illinois
when a very young man. In 1858.he
came to California and to Sierra county, his train being the next through
after the Mouutain Meadow massacre.
He first settled at Minnesota where he
was married in 1865. Five children were
born to them, one son and four daughters. Mrs, Kuhfield. died suddenly of
heart disease about five years ago. All
their children, except one daughter,
still reside in this county. Mr. Kuhfield wasa man of exemplary character and sterling worth, a man among
men, and his sudden taking off has
thrown a pall of sadness not only over
his own family, but over the entire
community, as was abundantly shown
by the large attendance at the funeral
which took place from the M. E.
church at 2 o’clock Sunday afternoon.
The query as to when the twentieth
century begins is still the “fifteen
puzzle” of the times. The boy who
chased the squirrel around the tree,
while the squirrel chased the boy, had
no such difficulty in learning whether
or not he had circumvented the squirrel. It is safe to say, however, that
when we have seen the year 1900 we
