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. a = ie . Iotarest.

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. F. J, Cuenry & Co, Toledo, 0.
