Thé Shaffer-Zanzic Combination opens at the Theatre 'tonight'at 8 o’clock, The combination consists of twelve people and carries @ carload of scenery and costumes, They have played five weeks in San Francisco and Sacramento. Those who attended the Columbian Exposition will remember having seen at. the Trocadero, in Chicago, the great Shaffer Family, of which Severus was the principal member, and Prof. Zanzio, who was touring with the great strong man, Sandow, The company is here for one night only and the people are assured of an evening’s ehtertainment of scientific manifestations, conjuring, hypnoptism and the best juggler and -equilibris the world has ever seen. It.is a performance the equal of which our people may never have the pleasure of witnessing in these parts, It-is the aim of the management—to-strive to please and satisfy its patrons, so secure your seats and take your family to the Theatre tonight and see the best combination of the kind on the road, Regular prices The San Francisco ‘Music and Drama” has this to say of Severus Shaffer: ‘Severus Shaffer, who does an eqhilibristic act that surpasses anything of the kind ever seen in this city, was greeted with a shower of bouquets at the Orpheum Monday night. During the performance of his marvelous act the audience curbed 4s -en“ thusiasm to a reasonable degree; but at the conclusion of his act there was a spontaneous outburst of applause and from every portion of the theatre beautifu) bunches of flowers were thrown upon the stage until the noted artist was almost buried in posies,” ~2® SaLt Rugum often appears in cold weather, attackiug the palms of the hands and other parts of the body.

The Wretch Tracked From the Scene of the Murder to the Washington Road. The posses that went out yesterday afternoon in search of the highwayman who shot Arthur Meyer, thé Bloomfield stage driver, returned last evening. The tracks made by the villain were carefully examined and measurements taken, After killing Meyer he went back into the brush, going for a short distance in the direction of ‘Nelson’s ranch and then making off up the ridge, ‘Fhe mask that he wore and an old slouch ‘hat were picked up near the scéne of the crime, Not very far away were found the remnants of alunch, also a copy of the Transorirr of a day or two previous, The piece of cake that wus found appeared to be & home-made article. It is supposed that these things were left by the murderer, still it is possible that the crumbs and paper tnarked the lunching place of séme hunter who passed through that part of the county.. The mask was made from a piece of lining torn from a coat, The hat and mask are in the possession of the officers, The tracks were traced through the woods and up to the Washington road on the ridge above the Harmony mine, At the point where they came into the Washington road ‘the tracks were identically the same as those made by the road agent where the stage was stopped, The officers feel satisfied that this is the course the fellow took. In many places the distance the tracks were apart indicated that the person who made them was on the run and jump. When news of the terrible tragedy was received here Sheriff Douglass was in Grass Valley. He was immediately telephoned toand in exactly twenty-five minutes he was in this city and on his way to the spot where the dastardly deed was committed. This is pretty quick work, Last evening the Sheriff returned from the search and left on the night train for Colfax, where he was joined by Sheriff Conroy of Placer county and proceeded to Dutch Flat, It was the intention to organize a posse at that place this morning and scour the country in the neighborhood of Towle Bros,’ logging railroad, and-thence on down the Washington ridge towards this city, This morning quite a party went out towards Washington and Bear Valley to look for the highwayman, but at this writing no werd has been received from them, George Zink, who resides” on the San Juan road, about five miles from this city and three or four miles across ‘the country from where the murder occurred, says that a man answering the description of the one whe held up the stage passed his place yesterday after the commission of the crime. He was going towards town, _ ’ One or two persons are suspicioned and the officers think they have a goad idea: of who the guilty party is. They will do all in their power to capture the right man, and have, we understand, two or three clues upon which to work, At the inquest held by Coroner Daniels yesterday afternoon the following persons acted as jurors: E, Hampton, R. Tremaine, George Davey, George A, Watson, Charles Hartman, H, Calahan, I. Waters, O, Hartling, J. Hooper, The witnesses examined were Clarence Bovee, who was the only passenger on the stage, and Dr, R, M, Hunt, who made an autopsy on the body. The autopsy showed that but one bullet struck Meyer,-entering his chest about two inches to the left of the right nipple and ranging ‘slightly downward severed the aorta and lodged in the intercostal muscles of the left side. The bullet, which was a round one of the old-fashioned kind, was slightly flattened by striking one of the ribs near the point of lodgment. Had it not been for this the ball probably would have passed entirely, through the body, Death was instantaneous. Clarence H, Bovee, who was on the stage with Moyer at the time of the killing, had $160 with him. There was $150 gent from Bloonifield to Frank Aumer of this city in the leather pocket carried on: the driver's seat, and some money in Meyer’s pockets, Nothing was stolen and it is very evident that the assassin became frightened lest Por-fomebody should come along, and fled into the brush, without further delay. so ee How's This!

She was taken with scarlet she had a very sick spell ‘was doing nicely and it’ was thought that all danger had passed, Yesterday ' morning, however, .a change took place, the treacherous disease assuming its worst phase, that of absorption and the final failure of the heart’s action, resulting in death as above stated; The deceased wag fourteen years of age and a bright, loyabie girl, the idol of her parents, who are almost heart-broken over the loss they have. suffered. She was their only child, The deepest sympathy of all is extended to them in their great bereavement, The. funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon from the family residence on Broad street, next door above’ the Methodist Church, Out of.respect to their deceased schoolmate, who was one of the brightest in her class, the pupils in her grade today decked her desk with pretty flowers. oe. .

The following was received by the TranSCRIPT last evening : Erra P, O., Srmnza Country, Catr, Nevada County Populiat, Central Committee, Gentlemen—My profession has called me temporarily out of the county, and it has come to my knowledge that my eligibility to office has on that account been challenged on the ground of non-residence, In my temporary absence from home the circumstances are such’that Iam convinced. the question has already defeated me in spite of anything T might do between now and election day, I do not wish to divide the vote with any candidate ; [ want a plurality or none at all, Nor do I wish to be a fictitious candidate, side-tracking in the intereuta of either of the other candidates, Therefore I, beg leave te most respectfully and definitely withdraw my.nanie from consideration, With deep appreciation of the honor you have shown me, and of the courtesies received at your hands IT hereby resign my position as the regular nominee on the Populist ticket for County Superintendent of Public Schools in Nevada county, Yours Respectfully, Mauve M., Pasties, October 28th, 1894, ome Uncalled For Insult. Grass Valley was ‘flooded last night with Copies of the Nevada City TRansontrr, oontaiuing ha f a dozen boom articles for Grove L, Johnson. Newspapers cost money. The above we copy from the Grass Valley Union of this morning. The slur contained therein is unworthy of a paper that claims town was for the sole purpose of giving the
people there full particulars of the murder of Arthur Meyer, the-falling of the Broad atreet bridge, and the death of E, G, Waite. We claim the same right that the Union accords to itself in sending extra papers here whenever anything startling occurs, without being falsely charged, by innuendo, that they are circulated at somebody else’s expense. The Union is welcomed to all the capital it can make in m that small way, Look Out For Burglars. Monday night Jean. Polmere, who lives with the family of his brother Thomas, on about, in the clothes closet, Thinking it might be his brother he called to him, whereupon the intruder, as such he proved to be, ram out through # hall and made his escape by the back door, Nothing was stolen, At the present time there are a number of hard characters in town and it behooves our people te be on the alert for burglars, footpads, sneak thieves and others of that ilk, The grass is getting short with some of them and they may be expected to, “. resort to any but legitimate means of getting hold of a few dollars.

He has been the leader in the fight at all times, not ‘enly in this State but at the National Capital. He isthe man that insisted upon Caminétti embodying in the mining bill the penalty of a $5000 fine for dumping debris into'any of the.rivers or tributaries thereof, Now we learn upon the best of authority that the wicked anti-hydraulicker, Geo, Ohleyer, is the leader of Caminetti’s fight in Yuba and Sutter counties. Ohleyer helieves that if Grove Johnson is elected that the resumption of hydraulic mining will be assured, while on the other hand if Caminetti is elected that industry will never be resuscitated, How any. voter residing in the mining sections, under any circnmetances, can vote against Grove L, Johnson we are at a loss to understand, Arethe people in the-—mining sectinns. ready to join hands with Geo! Ohleyer, who. has caused their ruin ? ‘ A vote for Caminetti means this and nothing more, We Do Not Feel it.

The names are of men who have not been residents of the State one year as provided by law, and it is said that most of them are at present residents of Grass Valley, Some people think that a residence of six months in the State gives them a right to vote. That. waa the old law, but under the pres ent law a citizen must have resided in the State one year, in the county ninety days, and in the precinct thirty days, and must be registered at least fifteen days previous to the election at which he desires to vote, We understand that.the peracns who have registered illegally are spotted and that representatives of both the Demooratio and Republican parties will be on hand on the day of election to challenge their right to vote, It will be well, therefore, for any person who has not. been inthe State the required time, to forego making an attempt to: vote, as he is very apt to be called down, Tr your kidneys are inactive, you will feel and look wretched, even in the moat cheerful society, and melancholy on the jolliest oocasiona, Dr, J, H.
