“Sierra County News ‘From the Down-.
ville Messenger of Saturday.
The residence of L. Dolley, on the
Rowland ranch, about three miles’
north of Sierraville,.was entirely destroyed by fire last Saturday night.
The loss is about $1000. None of the
furniture was saved.

The Comet Mining Company is haaiing ore over to the El Dorado company’s mill on Kanaka creek. to make’
a milling test. About 17 men are at
present émployed at the Comet mine.
Prof. T. L. Heaton, the brilliant
lecturer at the: State University, who
attended the Teachers’ Institute in
Downieville last fall, made an address
at Santa Barbara a few days ago, in
which he bitterly arraigned the Administration’s policy, in the Yhilippines. His remarks were severely criticised by the press in that section, and
_ the Professor has probably discovered
by this time that his sentiments do
not meet with the approval of the people of this State.
The new telephone line* was opened
to the public last Saturday, and communication can now be had directly
with down country points and all
towns in Sierra or Plumas counties, exeepting Sierra City and the towns of
Sierra Valley. About one-half of the
line between this place and Sierra City
has been constructed. Owing to some
delay in securing poles on this part of
the line, the erew will not reach Sierra
City as soon as was expected. They
are still making Downieville their headquarters. 3
From those who attended the district
fair at Sierraville last week, was learnthat it passed off. pleasantly and successfully. The exhibit of vegetables,
farm products, paintings and fancy.
work was excellent. The races at the
’ track were largely -attended, the display of live stock attracting much attention. The surrounding towns were
well represented, and the hotels were
crowded with guests. The Campbell
Hot Springs did a rushing business.
_ ‘The Sierra City Brass Band furnished
music during the fair.
A few days ago one. of the telephone
linemen, while taking a stroll on the
hill back of the schoolhouse, encountered a bear. With rare presence
of mind, he ran to his tent, put on his
climbers and climbed the flag-pole in
front of the school house. Some hours
later he was rescued by his comrades.
A bear bunt was then organized, and
the bear tracked to his lair. It was the
stuffed bear that had been used in the .
Native Sons’ purade on the 9th of September.
A local telephone: exchange will be
established if enough subscribers can
be secured.
One day last week while Harry Gott
and Elbridge Wing were taking a load
of freight to the Comet mine, a case
eontaining three bottles of acid (one
of nitric, one of sulphuric and one of
muriatic) fell off the wagon. When
the loss was discovered,they had left the
case about 100 yards behind, so Wing
went back to get it. He put the box
on his shoulder and when he got’ back
to the wagon he remarked that he
“smelled something burning.” Harry
didn’t smell it, but Wing didn’t stop
to argue the question. He just then discovered that the acid had run down his
back clear to his heels and various
other places. In just seven seconds
Elbridge had divested himself of all his
raiment, and stood exposed to the
sharp wind that always blows slong
the Henness Pass Ridge. Fortunately
in a roll of blaukets on the wagon’ he
found a pair of overalls und a red undersbirt, with which he clothed himself until he reached the mine.
With the exception of a few smal!
burns on his hands and other parts of
his body,he escaped injury but Elbridge
says he wouldn’t go through the same
experience again for all the gold in
Sierra county.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rambling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma.
tion can be taken out and this tube -restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Cattarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrb) that cannot be cured by Hall’s
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free.

THE DEAD BEE.
Dead amid the dewy clover
Lies a bonny liitle rover
Who could shape his ‘course afar
Without compass, without star.
Nevermore across the azure
Shall he sail in search of treasure;
Nevermore, when day is gone,
Home shall hie his galleon
From the jonquil’s golden chalice,
And the lily's ivory palace,
And the violets’ divine
Cups of white and purple wine.
Smile, smile on, thou faithless summes,
To forget thine early comer.
Say, if tHow hadst first departed,
Had be still been merry hearted?
On the boughs in rapture swinging
Gleefully the birds, are singing.
1, who mourn thee little bee,
Will pronounce thine elegy:
Be it meetness or unmeetness,
Thou didst garner up life’s sweetnem,
Wiser than the sages wist;
Earth has one less optimist. ~

Burial of an Indian an Child at Ragon Flat
(Yesterday Morning. :
Six squaws. sobbing and yailing as
thongh their hearts would break,
tradging along through the mud after
a wheelbarrow with.a mysterious looking bundle on it'‘and which was pushed
by a big buck Indian while another
pulled it with @ rope, was the sight
that greeted the eyes of a gentleman
from this city who strolled near the
cam pooda west of town at eight o’clock
yesterday. morning. . The bundle on
the wheetbarrow was the corpse of a
year and a half old papoose that had
died two days before. It was bound
-lto @ board, then swathed in cloth.
The.cortege was going to the Indian
burying ground at Ragen Flat to put

5 Sure of Water,
Sir Joseph Prestwich bad beught in
3864 @ seal! estate near Sevenoaks, on
which he built a residence, but it was
high up on a dry and treeless chalk
down. Where was water to be found?
“Bo confident was Prestwich in re
spect of water supply that he at once
engaged an old well digger to sink a
well 168 feet deep. The boring pro
eceodied, but when a depth of 166 feet
was reached the two workmen went to
the eity and sought an interview witb
their employer, whom they found at
his desk. They explained that there
was no sign of water and that in their
epinion it was useless to bore to 4
greater depth. “Go on,’ was the quiet
rejoinder, ‘you will come upon water tomorrow. You are within two feet of
it’
“Next day it proved exactly as Prestwich bad foretoid. And ever after.
among many of the denizens of the valfey, he had the reputation. much te
his amusement. of not being quite
‘eanny.’”’—Life and betters of Sir. Joseph Prestwich.
