Information calculated to please the stock-holders of the Nevada County Oil Company was received from General Manager Ross last evening. At a depth of 757 feet the bit in well number one entered a very lively strata of oil sand, that resulted in the released pressure throwing 4"0 feet of oil and sand over the top of the derrick, a distance The men engaged on the well,at the time, were driven from their work by the vast accumulation of oil and sand as it settled around the derrick Thisis one of the greatest bursts in the Kern River District, the: oil running forhalfa mile down the creek adjoining the company’s property. The fact that no one has yet been through the oil sand in the Kern field bas led to much speculation regarding the thickness of the petroleum deposit, and itis the purpose of the “Nevada County,” if the present flow subsides, to continue pushing the 95¢ inch casing toa depth of 1000 feet. In either case ® good producer is assured. With the of 72 feet. présent energetic management, and flattering out-look our local company will soon occupy a place with the best organizations in the State. Back “‘Home’”’ Again Chris Schneider, who has made himself well-known in this city and Grass Valley during the past few months, was brought to the County Jail today to serve ninety days for making himself generally obnoxious and resisting an officer at our sister city. Schneider went into Parson & Quick’s cigar store night before last and had some trouble with Mr. Quick, who soon swore to a c mplaint charging Schneider with disturbing the peace. While Officer Peterson was reading the complaint to his prisoner, the latter struck Peterson The officer brought his cane into action and hit Schneider across the face and it is feared his nose ig broken. He plead guilty before Justice Mulroy but asked him to be lenient, ad promised to sign a pledge not to drink any more whiskey for two years. The promise evidently had no effect upon the Justice. Special Meeting. A special meeting of the Board of ' City Trustees was held last evening, at which property-owners, who had been cited to appear before the Board, were present to show why they had not made connection with the city’s sewer system. ' The street committee was instructed to consult with J. OC. Campbell and negotiate for rock from the Campbell mine. Supervisor Martin cffered to furnish the city with broken rock aud take four -inch sewer pips in payment for the same. The Board authorized Street Superintendent Marchie to accept the proposition. Another meeting will be held next Tuesday evening to consider sewer matters. To Start a Job Printing Office. Wm.

Wm. Burch leaped througha window, and hurt his back. He was followed by Mrs. Ryrie, who was enveloped in flames. She fell down a stairway leading to the base— ment.

Sacramento, March 7.—This is the sixtieth day of the present session of the Legislature, and after today members receive no pay for their farther attendance. While no date has yet been fixed for final adjournment, it is the general expectation that the session will close ator near the end of next week—probably on Friday or Saturday. It is thought that the work cannot be completed earlier, and much necessary and important legislation remains to be accomplished. Smith, of Kern, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, says the Commitee will probably in a day or two report a reso— lution for final adjournment on Friday or Saturday next. He thinks it impracticable to fix an earlier date. The Senate also passed unanimously, Ray’s Assembly bill appropriating $25,000 for an electric plant and o her improvements for the Yosemite Valley. Senator Leavitt,a member of the Finance Committee, thinks it may report in favor of final adjournment on Thursday next, -The Coroner’s Two Verdicts. “Inquests are sometimes very funny affairs,” remarked a western man. “I remember one in the early days of my county in Kansas. A man was found . ’ dead by the side of a small. stream out on the prairie. No mark was found on his well dressed body. His gun was fully loaded in his hip pocket, and $25 was found in bis pocketbook. Of course the coroner took charge of the money. A ju#y was impaneled and after finishing its deliberations found that the man clearly died of heart fail. ure. . The coroner promptly paid from the dead man’s pile the $12 due for expenses and discharged the jury. The $13 remaining bothered him. He argued that to turn that $13 over to the county, to be held in trust for the man’s possible relatives, would be the same as throwing it away. The man was a stranger in those parts. Possibly he had no friends. sear, j The coroner was equal to the occasion, however. He declared. himself dissatisfied with the verdict and callSouthern Pacific manufacturers that the reports of a British commercial agent in the United States.showthat American boots aud shoes are capturing markets where British goods ought to havea practical monopoly.

New Yors, March 7.—The Commercial Advertiser today hae the following: There is good reason to expect some important changes in the Board of Directors of the Southern Pacific Railroad within the next few days. When the Board meets to fill the vacancy caused by thedeath of Director John D. Probst, it is likely that other vacancies will be created by resignations’ in order to make places for Union Pacific representatives. It is expected that E. H. Harriman, who is Chairman of the Union Pacific Board, will have an influential voice in the reorganization. of the Scuthern Pacific Board. President Charles M. Hays has been asked by the new owners of the Southern Pacific to remain as the executive head of the system and there is no expectation of any material change in the executive staff of the road. Many Thrown Out of Work. Etyr1, O, March 7—The building ‘occupied by the Fay Stocking Company and the Elyria Canning Conffiany ws destroyed by fire today. Loss, $80,000. One hundred persons are thrown out of work. Wealthy Brewer Passes Away. Omana, Neb., March 7.—Frederick Metz Sr., President. of the Metz Brothere’ Brewing Company, died this morning, aged 47. He was one of the wealthiest men inthe State, and had extensive property interests in several large Western cities. He had been twice married, and leaves a large family of grown sons and daughters. Driven Out by the “Yankees,” Lonpon, March 7—The Board -of [rade Journal today warns British In a Barn. Visatia, March 7.—Coroner Carruth[the-Nickel-. (reat American aporting Tea Co. the-Slot Bill. SacraMENTO, March 7.—There are persistent rumors of a “sack” in con-. nection with the Niokel-in-the-Slot . measures before the Senate. This re . lates particularly to Assembly bill 504, introduced in the Lower House by Grove L. Johnson. Despite the pre-. sumption that the measure was framed . for strictly moral purposes, and with . no other ebject than the suppression . of gambling with the slot machines, it has-undoubtedly been made the basis for large contributions on the part of interested persons, with the avowed object todafest the bill in the Upper House. Whether the money was to be used wholly for a “campaign of education,” or otherwise, is left to surmise. [here is a companion bill to Johnson’s introduced in the Senate by Tyrrell of Nevada. This is different in form, but likewise prohibits nickel-in-the-slot machines. The Senate bill has been amended so as not to interfere with machines that forfeit cigars or other merchandise, It is said that $12,000 in saloon keepers and cigar sellers, to defeat anti-nickel-in-the-slot legislation at this session. Discharged — From Prison.’ Los ANGELES, March 7.—After lying . in the County Jail since last September, ewaiting sentence, George Dixon was today discharged from custody as the result of the declaration of Judge Smith, of the Superior Court, that he would not pronounce sentence on the evidence adduced.

Wm. Burch leaped througha window, and hurt his back. He was followed by Mrs. Ryrie, who was enveloped in flames. She fell down a stairway leading to the base— ment.

Sacramento, March 7.—This is the sixtieth day of the present session of the Legislature, and after today members receive no pay for their farther attendance. While no date has yet been fixed for final adjournment, it is the general expectation that the session will close ator near the end of next week—probably on Friday or Saturday. It is thought that the work cannot be completed earlier, and much necessary and important legislation remains to be accomplished. Smith, of Kern, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, says the Commitee will probably in a day or two report a reso— lution for final adjournment on Friday or Saturday next. He thinks it impracticable to fix an earlier date. The Senate also passed unanimously, Ray’s Assembly bill appropriating $25,000 for an electric plant and o her improvements for the Yosemite Valley. Senator Leavitt,a member of the Finance Committee, thinks it may report in favor of final adjournment on Thursday next, -The Coroner’s Two Verdicts. “Inquests are sometimes very funny affairs,” remarked a western man. “I remember one in the early days of my county in Kansas. A man was found . ’ dead by the side of a small. stream out on the prairie. No mark was found on his well dressed body. His gun was fully loaded in his hip pocket, and $25 was found in bis pocketbook. Of course the coroner took charge of the money. A ju#y was impaneled and after finishing its deliberations found that the man clearly died of heart fail. ure. . The coroner promptly paid from the dead man’s pile the $12 due for expenses and discharged the jury. The $13 remaining bothered him. He argued that to turn that $13 over to the county, to be held in trust for the man’s possible relatives, would be the same as throwing it away. The man was a stranger in those parts. Possibly he had no friends. sear, j The coroner was equal to the occasion, however. He declared. himself dissatisfied with the verdict and callSouthern Pacific manufacturers that the reports of a British commercial agent in the United States.showthat American boots aud shoes are capturing markets where British goods ought to havea practical monopoly.

New Yors, March 7.—The Commercial Advertiser today hae the following: There is good reason to expect some important changes in the Board of Directors of the Southern Pacific Railroad within the next few days. When the Board meets to fill the vacancy caused by thedeath of Director John D. Probst, it is likely that other vacancies will be created by resignations’ in order to make places for Union Pacific representatives. It is expected that E. H. Harriman, who is Chairman of the Union Pacific Board, will have an influential voice in the reorganization. of the Scuthern Pacific Board. President Charles M. Hays has been asked by the new owners of the Southern Pacific to remain as the executive head of the system and there is no expectation of any material change in the executive staff of the road.

SacraMENTO, March 7.—There are persistent rumors of a “sack” in con-. nection with the Niokel-in-the-Slot . measures before the Senate. This re . lates particularly to Assembly bill 504, introduced in the Lower House by Grove L. Johnson. Despite the pre-. sumption that the measure was framed . for strictly moral purposes, and with . no other ebject than the suppression . of gambling with the slot machines, it has-undoubtedly been made the basis for large contributions on the part of interested persons, with the avowed object todafest the bill in the Upper House. Whether the money was to be used wholly for a “campaign of education,” or otherwise, is left to surmise. [here is a companion bill to Johnson’s introduced in the Senate by Tyrrell of Nevada. This is different in form, but likewise prohibits nickel-in-the-slot machines. The Senate bill has been amended so as not to interfere with machines that forfeit cigars or other merchandise, It is said that $12,000 in saloon keepers and cigar sellers, to defeat anti-nickel-in-the-slot legislation at this session.
