One of the boldest. robberies committed in this county for some time occurred at Grass Valley this afternoon. At1 o'clock, while an elderly lady named Mrs, Gilbert Harris, who resides on Colfax Avenue, near the depot, was just finishing her ironing, she was surprised to see a strange man enter the front deor and lock the door behind him. He told Mrs. Harris he wanted money. The frightened woman took fifty cents from her pocket and handed it to him, saying that was all she had. At this the thief drew a pistol and pointing it at her said he knew there was more money in the house, and for her to get it. Mrs. Harris went to an adjoining room and got her purse, which contained $300. She took out $50 and returning gave it to the robber. While dding this she dropped the purse on the floor unbeknown te the man_ who insisted that there was more money in the house and said he must have it. The robber then proceeded to chloroform the old lady and after getting her under the influence of the drug he ransacked the house thoroughly, going through trunks, bureaus and other ‘receptacles, and even cutting open the mattresses. He failed to find any valuables, and in his zeal overlooked the purse with $250 in it, which had been dropped by Mrs, Harris. When the women regained coneciousness she gave the alarm and the officers were soon notified, No trace of the robber had been found at last accounts. He is described as being a. man of medium size, with red whiskers that are turning grey, and wore a light brown suit of clothes, é Mre, Harris was alone in the house at the time, which fact seems to have been known by the robber. 0 ORO THE DAILY TRANSCRIPTS od Summarized Mention of Minor Home Happenings.

It Does Not Follow .That Wealth Produces Happiness. A distinguished educator says the RecordUnion, said to -an ‘inquiring’ reporter that he ‘believed a large portion of the misery in the world is due-to the people who’go about making others believe they have been unfairly treated, when in factif nine men out of ten in this world get just about what their own energy, their own vices, and their own virtues entitle themto, That is truth in a nut shell. Over in San Quentin tnere are four men under sentence to be hanged in a coupile of weeks, and a reporter interviewing them last week found every last one.of the murderers declaring that he is to be executed because he has no money. ‘‘If,’’ each of them protested, ‘‘I had money I would not have been convicted. I am innocent, but 1 had no money.” Soit is along the whole line from murderers to’ monomaniacs—the lot believe that it is sufficient defense for crime and incapacity to plead poverty. Sensible people, who are neither radicals, criminals or agitators, find that happiness consists in contentment and resolution to make the best of things. There is no greater fallacy, nothing that is more stirring the dregs of dissatisfaction, than the fancy that plenty of means insures to each of us greater pleasures and broader satis— faction in life. But leisure is by no means happiness. Leisure is a means to cultivation, the storing of the mind and _ the. enlargement of the tastes. But when that is said all is said, unless we include the satis— fying of curiosity. But let no one run away with the idea that there is not plenty of joy without wealth; that the man of modest means may rot be as happy as_ the rich, and that the very poor inan may have reasons of the very beat kind for not wishto exchange lots with the very rich.

Last night was full of mirth and pleasure atthe Opera House. The only thing to mar the pleasure of the evening was the meagernéss of the audience. We sincerely regret that the people are so tardy in grasping the opportunity to witness pure and _ mirth-producing comedy. Nevada City has long had the reputation of possessing the ability to appreciate good drama and comedy whenever they are presented to her people, and we . believe she~ possesses that ability and appreciation today in a high degree, but she is permitting those qualifications to lie dormant. This may be accounted for by the presence of worthless ‘‘barn-storming” companies who have visited here, disgusting lovers of drama by their vulgar and inferior acting and making it dissgreeable for the clever and legitimate artists who follow them. The company now playing here is a legitimate one containing dramatic artists who are exception— ally skillful and clever in their roles. But those who do attend are highly gratitied at the performance and show their appreciation by loud and frequent appleuse. Last night the company presented the beautiful comedy-drama in four acts, ‘*Rose Garland,” The play is full of telling parts and gives opportunity for clever acting. Some of the minor roles were played in a highly meritorious manner, One or two of them are worthy of special mention. Particularly “Prof. Percy Perry,” a college professor, inventive genius and allruund crauk, which role was assumed by Mr. Bass. . Mr. Bass portrayed the idiosyn‘eracics of this eccentric old genius in a very clever manner and is deserving of compliment, Jack Gordon is a prominent character in the cast and was creditably presented by He showed in an ingenious way that love and devotion were Mr. George Murphy. nobler trials in his nature than the subserviency to wealth and society. Joseph Garland, farmer, politician. and Justice of the Peacg was portrayed in a pleasing and effective style by Mr. Payton, In this rele he strongly sustained the reputation he had acquired the two previous evenings by his clever and artistic acting. Miss Keene assumed the dual role of “Rose Garland” and “Lucy Ashton,” and in each role she was exceedingly clever. She possesses a wonderful versatility and whether portraying the ‘‘wild flower of the Adirondacks,’ an ignorant, uncultured bn3 beantiful country girl, or the accomplished and cultured girl of society as Lucy Ashton, she is always in her sphere. , Tonight the company plays the beautiful drama; "East Lynne. This is one of the finest dramas ever produced, and it is reest Lady IsabelHes that ever performed on a stage. Everybody should attend. (24 @ee --—— $2,500 Wanted.

The Ghost of a Chance Is a very shadowy affair. Ere the chance of recovery becomes a vanishing ghost, take a most potent means of overcoming the inactivity of the organs that terminates in their tod frequently fatal disease, by resorting to Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which gives just the requisite impulse to the renal organs to promote their vigorous action without exciting them, an effect too often produced by the fiery and unmedicated stimulants of commerce, Bright's disease, diabetes and inactivity of the bladder, are inroads may, huwever, be stayed if they are met at the start and combatted the, Bitters. This fine and genial corrective also remedies malaria, dyspspsia, rheumatism, debility, nervousness and the infirmities incident to age. It hastens convalescence, and is promotive of sleep and appetite. ‘ By using Hall’s Hair Renewer, gray, taded;.or discolored hair assumes the natural color of youth, and grows luxuriant and strong, pleasing everybody. —---—— Cheap Photographs Are dear at any price—I do not do cheap work-—but will made Cabinet photos at ‘$3 per d.zen and Paris panels at $5 per doz.

It Does Not Follow .That Wealth Produces Happiness. A distinguished educator says the RecordUnion, said to -an ‘inquiring’ reporter that he ‘believed a large portion of the misery in the world is due-to the people who’go about making others believe they have been unfairly treated, when in factif nine men out of ten in this world get just about what their own energy, their own vices, and their own virtues entitle themto, That is truth in a nut shell. Over in San Quentin tnere are four men under sentence to be hanged in a coupile of weeks, and a reporter interviewing them last week found every last one.of the murderers declaring that he is to be executed because he has no money. ‘‘If,’’ each of them protested, ‘‘I had money I would not have been convicted. I am innocent, but 1 had no money.” Soit is along the whole line from murderers to’ monomaniacs—the lot believe that it is sufficient defense for crime and incapacity to plead poverty. Sensible people, who are neither radicals, criminals or agitators, find that happiness consists in contentment and resolution to make the best of things. There is no greater fallacy, nothing that is more stirring the dregs of dissatisfaction, than the fancy that plenty of means insures to each of us greater pleasures and broader satis— faction in life. But leisure is by no means happiness. Leisure is a means to cultivation, the storing of the mind and _ the. enlargement of the tastes. But when that is said all is said, unless we include the satis— fying of curiosity. But let no one run away with the idea that there is not plenty of joy without wealth; that the man of modest means may rot be as happy as_ the rich, and that the very poor inan may have reasons of the very beat kind for not wishto exchange lots with the very rich.

Last night was full of mirth and pleasure atthe Opera House. The only thing to mar the pleasure of the evening was the meagernéss of the audience. We sincerely regret that the people are so tardy in grasping the opportunity to witness pure and _ mirth-producing comedy. Nevada City has long had the reputation of possessing the ability to appreciate good drama and comedy whenever they are presented to her people, and we . believe she~ possesses that ability and appreciation today in a high degree, but she is permitting those qualifications to lie dormant. This may be accounted for by the presence of worthless ‘‘barn-storming” companies who have visited here, disgusting lovers of drama by their vulgar and inferior acting and making it dissgreeable for the clever and legitimate artists who follow them. The company now playing here is a legitimate one containing dramatic artists who are exception— ally skillful and clever in their roles. But those who do attend are highly gratitied at the performance and show their appreciation by loud and frequent appleuse. Last night the company presented the beautiful comedy-drama in four acts, ‘*Rose Garland,” The play is full of telling parts and gives opportunity for clever acting. Some of the minor roles were played in a highly meritorious manner, One or two of them are worthy of special mention. Particularly “Prof. Percy Perry,” a college professor, inventive genius and allruund crauk, which role was assumed by Mr. Bass. . Mr. Bass portrayed the idiosyn‘eracics of this eccentric old genius in a very clever manner and is deserving of compliment, Jack Gordon is a prominent character in the cast and was creditably presented by He showed in an ingenious way that love and devotion were Mr. George Murphy. nobler trials in his nature than the subserviency to wealth and society. Joseph Garland, farmer, politician. and Justice of the Peacg was portrayed in a pleasing and effective style by Mr. Payton, In this rele he strongly sustained the reputation he had acquired the two previous evenings by his clever and artistic acting. Miss Keene assumed the dual role of “Rose Garland” and “Lucy Ashton,” and in each role she was exceedingly clever. She possesses a wonderful versatility and whether portraying the ‘‘wild flower of the Adirondacks,’ an ignorant, uncultured bn3 beantiful country girl, or the accomplished and cultured girl of society as Lucy Ashton, she is always in her sphere. , Tonight the company plays the beautiful drama; "East Lynne. This is one of the finest dramas ever produced, and it is reest Lady IsabelHes that ever performed on a stage. Everybody should attend. (24 @ee --—— $2,500 Wanted.

He informs us that-his business here in the interest of those two. widespread companies is to give the insuring public the benefit of these cut rates. He states he will cut the present rate 60 per cent. or more. These companies withdrew from the combine and forced the reduction. He says he is prepared to favor a permanent reduction of the high rates usually charged, And for the twentieth time the Transoripr would like to ask if our people will ever get the benefit of the low rates?
