On the sidewalk in front of Giffin’s establishment. on Broad street has fe ; i stood for two or three days past an in-' mother, Mrs. Z. P. Davis, received and nocent lobking crate in which empty Cigar boxes were, received from the manufacturer. Somebody fixed the row of:slats on the upper side go they Would yield to a slight pressure. The first victim was a fat man who came along and could not resist the temptation to sit down there and enjoy a smoke while he watched the busy throng file past. He let himself down with a grunt of satisfaction, As he came in contact with the slats they receded. His astonishment caused him to lose his balance. He clutched at . the air, but could not get a substantial grip on it, He doubled up like a jackknife, and a moment later nothing but his arms, head and feet projected atove the sides of the crate. As the crowd hooted he swore and sti uggled to release himself. Then he struggled and swore some more at each successive peal of laughter. The more he tried to get out the tighter he wedged himself in, About the time he began to get black in the face three or four sturdy men took’hold and with.a pull all together got him out. The trap caught a number more sitters on April Fool evening. The Anti-Chippie Hunters are negotiating with Giffin for the right to -use it in conferring their fourteenth degree. A Old Man’s Bad Break. J. A. Pettie, aged about three-score and ten years, was-_on trial Monday evening before Justice Wadsworth on a charge of battery. Mr. Holbrook and his wife and daughter testified that the old man came to the former’s restaurant with a shovel in his hand and raised the shovel to strike the proprietor; also that when he was ejected from the building he broke a window. The defendant’ admitted that he took along the shovel so he might use it as a weapon of defense if necessary. He was found guilty and sent to jail for 20 days in default of $20 fine. He says that though he has lived in California since 1853 this is his first court experience. He has made his home is Washington, Little York and Nevada townships. He is not a drinking man and has always borne a good reputation, but his.intellect is evidently out of working order now. He has several hobbies. One is that although Mr. Holbrook has helped to support him for many years and been very kind to him, he thinks that gentleman owes him a large sum of money.He has a mania for accumulating clothing, and has enough of a wardrobe for a dozen ordinary men.

The following named persons_were nominated and elected to serve for the ensuing term: President, Mrs, J. V. Hunter; Vice President, Mrs. A. W. Lester ; Secretary, Miss Lucy Bobo; Treasurer, Mrs. A. Walrath. After the officers were installed a member bobbed up and moved to bounce the reporter. This received @ Unanimous second and he was “‘fired.”? Speeches were made by a dozen.or more members under the head of. ‘question of privilege’ and the poor cuss canglt H-E-double-L. He was charged with lying, misrepresenting fucts, figures and occurences, and manufacturing yarns out of whole cloth. It was proven ‘‘beyond a reasonable doubt’? that he had tampered with the score and on numerous occasions stacked the cards. For his wife’s sake they graciously allowed him to retain his membership, but no more will he report proceedings. —; ¥ The business meéting over the cards were brought, partners chosen and “‘moye on’? was the word. Twenty players shuffled and struggled for two hours to see who was going to knock the persimmon. Every mortal one of ’em declared they were sure to get the booby, but there is but one party sure of that and his name ig Hadley. “Johnny” and Mrs. Chris’ Naffziger were partners. They took the lead at the beginning and in spite of all opposition held it to the finish. George Turner says he intends ‘building an addition to_hishouseto keep the booby trophies in. Miss Bobo and Chris Naffziger hauled in the first prizes. Miss Bobo has been very. suc ceseful in getting prizes, this being the third one during’ the present term. Mrs. Lester sustained her reputation for taste and good judgment in the selection of premiums and the mottoes attached thereto., After the distribution of prizes the regular banquet was served and partaken of with pleasure. Social talk ensued interpersed with music, jokes and stories. Mrs. Rolfe told a charming ghost story which made the cold chills chase each other up and down the reporter’s spinal column. Several of the more timid ladies got ‘‘skeered” and clutched the arm of their escorts with the grip of fear. John Rectorambled to the piano and played a waltz, while ‘‘Old Bond’ and ‘Mrs. John’? danced. Turner told how ‘‘Niggers’? in the South eat pie on invitation. Ianthis Jerome regaled the company with one. of his best ‘‘spring of ’50” stories and that busted the meeting. : The next session will be held at the residence of Miss Bobo. HiS MAD UP. A North Bloomfielder’s Opinion of Slickenus Spies. N. Bioomrte.p, Cau., March 29. Epitor Transcrirt—There are degrees in all things, meanness among others, and we have found the art of being Past Grand Master in meanness. It has been demonstrated to the people of this vicinity that to become worthy of the above title all one has to dois to become a “‘slickens spy.” Two of those dirty whelps have beentrying for some time to serve some of their lying, oppressive papers on one of our citizens and have been guilty of acts that would disgrace a Hottentot. This citizen’s house has been watched day and night, his door-bell has been rung at all sorts of hours in the hope that either he or his wife would put in au appearance (for the spies have declared that either would do), and the scamps have inquired of his whereabouts from the neighbors. This is fot all. Some of this same gang have gone i private house and occupied it a part of the. night because there was only a boy to protect it. And yet this man that is hunted day and night has not done as much damuge to the streams and lowlands of this State as is done by every three thousand sheep that are .pastured in the mountains every summer, going up from the valleys. That the miners are a patient and long-suffering people is well demonstrated by this case, but patience can cease to be a virtue. Supposing a few charges of buckshot should be ‘‘placed where they would do the most good,’’ somewhere in the mountain regions, in the near future, who would be to blame for it? Candidly, Mr. Editor, isn’t three dollars a day getting to be pretty small pay for 4 risk.a spy runs? BucksuHor. _ Spraying Trees.

On Monday evening, between the hours of eight and nine o’clock, six young men wearing white masks and carrying pickets or clubs in their han:!s ‘boldly paraded up and down the sidewalks in the vicinity of the Washington and Lincoln school-houses making a greal deal of noise. They stopped beneath a gas light and there held a short consultation. Then they went toa residence close by and pulled the door-bell and pounded upon the porch with their clubs. When the owner made his appearance they all ran. These boys or rather young men take pride in being called ‘White Caps.” Such practical jokes should not be allowed. Small boys have been terrified by these self-styled ‘White Caps,” who’ should remember that children have often been seriously injured for life, and sometimes killed, by attempts to frighten them by means of masks, white sheets and other con: trivances. A boy once told his sister, in sport, that therag-man was coming to carry her off. Afterwards, when the rag-man really came, the child was so terrified that she sickened and died in consequence.

Preacher before starting for the scene of adventure had in company with hima wagon spoke two and one half feet in length, ten-poundsof cobble stones concealed about his person, and two wickedlooking bowie-knives. I will admit we were having a good time in general among ourselves, frolicking among the pines, when in came these four armed to the teeth, Preasher at the head. He yelled, ‘Bring on your White Caps,’ and at the same time made a wicked lunge at the nearest of us with his blackthorn stick. I well knew we would have to fight. So fight it-was.

On the sidewalk in front of Giffin’s establishment. on Broad street has fe ; i stood for two or three days past an in-' mother, Mrs. Z. P. Davis, received and nocent lobking crate in which empty Cigar boxes were, received from the manufacturer. Somebody fixed the row of:slats on the upper side go they Would yield to a slight pressure. The first victim was a fat man who came along and could not resist the temptation to sit down there and enjoy a smoke while he watched the busy throng file past. He let himself down with a grunt of satisfaction, As he came in contact with the slats they receded. His astonishment caused him to lose his balance. He clutched at . the air, but could not get a substantial grip on it, He doubled up like a jackknife, and a moment later nothing but his arms, head and feet projected atove the sides of the crate. As the crowd hooted he swore and sti uggled to release himself. Then he struggled and swore some more at each successive peal of laughter. The more he tried to get out the tighter he wedged himself in, About the time he began to get black in the face three or four sturdy men took’hold and with.a pull all together got him out. The trap caught a number more sitters on April Fool evening. The Anti-Chippie Hunters are negotiating with Giffin for the right to -use it in conferring their fourteenth degree. A Old Man’s Bad Break. J. A. Pettie, aged about three-score and ten years, was-_on trial Monday evening before Justice Wadsworth on a charge of battery. Mr. Holbrook and his wife and daughter testified that the old man came to the former’s restaurant with a shovel in his hand and raised the shovel to strike the proprietor; also that when he was ejected from the building he broke a window. The defendant’ admitted that he took along the shovel so he might use it as a weapon of defense if necessary. He was found guilty and sent to jail for 20 days in default of $20 fine. He says that though he has lived in California since 1853 this is his first court experience. He has made his home is Washington, Little York and Nevada townships. He is not a drinking man and has always borne a good reputation, but his.intellect is evidently out of working order now. He has several hobbies. One is that although Mr. Holbrook has helped to support him for many years and been very kind to him, he thinks that gentleman owes him a large sum of money.He has a mania for accumulating clothing, and has enough of a wardrobe for a dozen ordinary men.

The following named persons_were nominated and elected to serve for the ensuing term: President, Mrs, J. V. Hunter; Vice President, Mrs. A. W. Lester ; Secretary, Miss Lucy Bobo; Treasurer, Mrs. A. Walrath. After the officers were installed a member bobbed up and moved to bounce the reporter. This received @ Unanimous second and he was “‘fired.”? Speeches were made by a dozen.or more members under the head of. ‘question of privilege’ and the poor cuss canglt H-E-double-L. He was charged with lying, misrepresenting fucts, figures and occurences, and manufacturing yarns out of whole cloth. It was proven ‘‘beyond a reasonable doubt’? that he had tampered with the score and on numerous occasions stacked the cards. For his wife’s sake they graciously allowed him to retain his membership, but no more will he report proceedings. —; ¥ The business meéting over the cards were brought, partners chosen and “‘moye on’? was the word. Twenty players shuffled and struggled for two hours to see who was going to knock the persimmon. Every mortal one of ’em declared they were sure to get the booby, but there is but one party sure of that and his name ig Hadley. “Johnny” and Mrs. Chris’ Naffziger were partners. They took the lead at the beginning and in spite of all opposition held it to the finish. George Turner says he intends ‘building an addition to_hishouseto keep the booby trophies in. Miss Bobo and Chris Naffziger hauled in the first prizes. Miss Bobo has been very. suc ceseful in getting prizes, this being the third one during’ the present term. Mrs. Lester sustained her reputation for taste and good judgment in the selection of premiums and the mottoes attached thereto., After the distribution of prizes the regular banquet was served and partaken of with pleasure. Social talk ensued interpersed with music, jokes and stories. Mrs. Rolfe told a charming ghost story which made the cold chills chase each other up and down the reporter’s spinal column. Several of the more timid ladies got ‘‘skeered” and clutched the arm of their escorts with the grip of fear. John Rectorambled to the piano and played a waltz, while ‘‘Old Bond’ and ‘Mrs. John’? danced. Turner told how ‘‘Niggers’? in the South eat pie on invitation. Ianthis Jerome regaled the company with one. of his best ‘‘spring of ’50” stories and that busted the meeting. : The next session will be held at the residence of Miss Bobo. HiS MAD UP. A North Bloomfielder’s Opinion of Slickenus Spies. N. Bioomrte.p, Cau., March 29. Epitor Transcrirt—There are degrees in all things, meanness among others, and we have found the art of being Past Grand Master in meanness. It has been demonstrated to the people of this vicinity that to become worthy of the above title all one has to dois to become a “‘slickens spy.” Two of those dirty whelps have beentrying for some time to serve some of their lying, oppressive papers on one of our citizens and have been guilty of acts that would disgrace a Hottentot. This citizen’s house has been watched day and night, his door-bell has been rung at all sorts of hours in the hope that either he or his wife would put in au appearance (for the spies have declared that either would do), and the scamps have inquired of his whereabouts from the neighbors. This is fot all. Some of this same gang have gone i private house and occupied it a part of the. night because there was only a boy to protect it. And yet this man that is hunted day and night has not done as much damuge to the streams and lowlands of this State as is done by every three thousand sheep that are .pastured in the mountains every summer, going up from the valleys. That the miners are a patient and long-suffering people is well demonstrated by this case, but patience can cease to be a virtue. Supposing a few charges of buckshot should be ‘‘placed where they would do the most good,’’ somewhere in the mountain regions, in the near future, who would be to blame for it? Candidly, Mr. Editor, isn’t three dollars a day getting to be pretty small pay for 4 risk.a spy runs? BucksuHor. _ Spraying Trees.

On Monday evening, between the hours of eight and nine o’clock, six young men wearing white masks and carrying pickets or clubs in their han:!s ‘boldly paraded up and down the sidewalks in the vicinity of the Washington and Lincoln school-houses making a greal deal of noise. They stopped beneath a gas light and there held a short consultation. Then they went toa residence close by and pulled the door-bell and pounded upon the porch with their clubs. When the owner made his appearance they all ran. These boys or rather young men take pride in being called ‘White Caps.” Such practical jokes should not be allowed. Small boys have been terrified by these self-styled ‘White Caps,” who’ should remember that children have often been seriously injured for life, and sometimes killed, by attempts to frighten them by means of masks, white sheets and other con: trivances. A boy once told his sister, in sport, that therag-man was coming to carry her off. Afterwards, when the rag-man really came, the child was so terrified that she sickened and died in consequence.

Preacher before starting for the scene of adventure had in company with hima wagon spoke two and one half feet in length, ten-poundsof cobble stones concealed about his person, and two wickedlooking bowie-knives. I will admit we were having a good time in general among ourselves, frolicking among the pines, when in came these four armed to the teeth, Preasher at the head. He yelled, ‘Bring on your White Caps,’ and at the same time made a wicked lunge at the nearest of us with his blackthorn stick. I well knew we would have to fight. So fight it-was.
