In many matters of mod= ern and municipal improvements, too, she sets an example worthy of emulation by other mining towns in the State which seem to be less ambitious and progressive. She controls her own water works, possome of the finest, public schools in the State, has begua-to--improve and beautify her public thoroughfares by the process of cement and uniform macadam and is now on the eve of establishing an extensive sewer system that cannot fail to remove much of the doubt and infidelity which now exist relative to the salubrious and health-giving quality of her climate. Grass Valley has indeed extricated herself from the slough of siluranism in’ which she found herself so strongly imbedded for @ guarter of a century, But what caused our sister city to wrest herself from her inert and lethargie condition? This isa question of some moment to towns similarly. situated.

Important measures of the Legislature are forcing their way to’the front. Assemblyman J)wyer’s project of having a State hospital in San Francisco is in shape now, for it has been reported favorably by the Ways and Means Committee and is assured of warm support on the floor. The idea is to make the institution for those who have not resided long enough in any part of the State to entitle them to the privileges] of the local establishments, and it is claimed that such a hospital is an absolute necessity in view. of the hosts of sick wanderers who tind their way to the metropolis, ~~-2@e + ait The Telegraph Fight.

The celestial stage this month will present Diana playing a role in which she was once accustomed to terrify mankind. And even today the earth contains millions of Adam’s descendants who look upon a total eclipse of the moon with. awe and dread. But knowledge does not diminish the interest of such an event. It is a wonderful thing to watch the shadow of our planet creeping across the mountainous face of a globe nearly 240,000 miles away.Fhe scale of such a phenomenon is in itself imposing to the imagination. And we like to see our shadow reaching so far; it heightens our respect for the ball that casts it. There should be a perceptible increase of human dignity after an eclipse of the nioon. This eclipse will occur on the night of Sunday, the 10th, and will be visible throughout most of the inhabited regions of the globe. It should be remarked that the ordinary observer igs not likely to notice the penumbral phases and, putting the whole thing in a nutshell, it may be said that the eclipse will begin about 8:45 Pp.
