The District Attorney today advised OvountyClerk Arbogast to pay the Justices of the Peace ahd Constables in Grass Valley and Nevada Townships their salaries as provided for under the County Government Act, passed at the late session of the Legislature.

Lufkin, and: the exercises attending the same proved to be in keeping with the beautiful ritual work of the order. The members of the local .camp of Woodmen were assist-d by the Women of Woudcraft, the ladies’ branch of the order, and by a delegation of Woodmen from Mistletoe Camp of Grass Valley, and after a short preliuiuary meeting ut-their hall, marehed tothe cemetery in a body, accompanied by the widow of the deceased neighbor and her intimate friends iu a carriage, .and surrounded the the tomb of the deceused oeighbor, where the following program was carried vut with much impressiveress: Quartet, “Going Down the Valley,” Messrs.

Unveiling of monument, Quartet, “Nearer My God to Thee.” Remarks, F. L. Arbogast. OCiosing ceremonies by officers of Lone Pine Camp. The monument is a very neat and: imposing shaft of grani‘e and is prettily inscribed with the emblems of Woodcraft aud a motto of the order. The Woodmen of the World believe in vonori: g and perpetuating the memory of their deceased neighbors and a monument is thus provided for every member of the order by the Head Camp, when the hand of Death :alls upon a meuber. The remarks delivered by Mr.Arbogast were a beautiful tribute to the memory of the late Jesse W. Lufkin and we publish it io full: “Among the peaceful sleepers in this quiet city of the dead lies at rest a Woodman of the World, the first of Lone Pine Camp to cross to the Great Beyond, and though his voice is no longer beard in'the councils of the order, his memory is not permitted to perish from among his brethren, and over the grave of Jesse W. Lufkin) « grani‘e shaft has been erected by the munificence of the fraternity,telling the world that a faithful Woodman sleeps beneath. The monument was erected in accordance with specifications ot the Head Camp of the Order, and contains a suitable inscripticn, together. witb-the emblem of the Woodmen of the World, the log, axe, maul and wedge, e: closed in a laurel wreath and surmounted by the dove of peace, while at the base of the monument is ap sical “Oar departed neighbor, Jesse W. Lufkio, was athative of Tilinois, having seen the light of day first on the 2st day. of September, 1864. “He came from the East in 1889 and made this the State of his adoption, and dearly loved the great Commonwealth of California. “He was married in Jane, 1896, to Maria Wilcox, who with three little children survive him. “Re met his death accidentally, as we all know, while in the employ of the Nevada Ocunty Electric Power OCompany, and tne whole community telt the loss of a noble citizen, “Jesse W. Lufkin was.a man among men in the fullest extent of the ex pression. Ouae of sterling qualities and worth, kind and gentle in disposition, quiet and reserved in manner, courteous to his fellow men, and earn. vet and conscientious in his work. He won thead.niration of all with whom he came in contact. As a citizen he was frank and straightforward, ever ready to perform those duties incumbent upon all good men. “As @ neighbor of Woodcraft he was gentle, thoughtful and charitable, zeul. ous, ardent and earnest in his work in the order, } “He served as an officer of the Camp in almost all capacities, being a Past Consul Commander st the time of his death. By his Straightforward conduct, his willingness to bear the burdens necessarily devolving upon him asa Woodman, he won the love and. admiration of hig neighbors, who deep. ly deplore his early demise. As a husband and father he was ever thinking of the comforts of his family, aud jealous of the time he had to spend away from them. His ambition was to have a home he could gall his Own, and to tbis end he bent his energies; but he has been called tu the eternal home beyond, where he awaits our coming, aud where we all hope to spend a blissful eternity, “Woodcraft, dear friends, is a young instiution, but by referring to its record you will flad that it bas the most marvelous growth of any kindred organization. Its objects are to ennoble its members, to minister to the afflisted, to relieve distress, to seek employment for those without it, to cast a sheltering arm about the defenseless living; to give an honorable burial to our sacred dead, to place a permanent token of our esteem upon his grave, to SO impress the grand doctrine of brotherhood of man Upon our member. ship so as to make it an important factor in-our daily lives, to encourage broad, charitable views;'to make us more intelligent Citizens, true friends, gentler sons, more thoughtfal brothers, more considerate husbands and more reasonable fathers. “Our ceremonies this day, though simple, are intended to remind us ot the fact that we too are mortal, and we know not how soon we may be called to our home beyond, and all that is mortal-of us iaid quietly in this silent city of the dead, where we trust our surviving neighbors will, with bowed heads and solemn hearts dedicate toour memory some Simple tribute. “May these ceremonies be to us a lesson ever to be remembered, and may each of us 80 live, spect that the memory of Jesse W, Lufkin deserves, and may this simple shaft, bere over his silent tomb ever proclaim to the world here li man, the noblest work of God.” vee Home-made bread made fresh every asto merit ihe re-. narra) Served a Banguet,Clowns Enjoy Ghemselves at the Wational Hotel, The group of clowns which won the banquet offered by Rector Brothers, at the recent masquerade ball given by Prof. Michell, received their prize at the National Hotel last night.

The Transorier is reliably informed that a bogus agent is making his rounds in this vicinity and is trying to swindle people with the “deposit” scheme. He claims to represent several business firms at Sacramento, two of them being Weinstock & Lubin and Jobno F, Stoli & Co. The agent solicits orders for all kinds ef goods, but asks a deposit with every order. If refused he becomes insulting and leaves in ap upgry mood. He is clean-shaven, with durk hair, and reddish complexion of face. Heis.about 25 years of age and dresses very neat. People should be on their guard and give him a cold reception.
