CITY, NEVADA-CO., CALIFORNIA BROWN & CALKINS, ° THE: TRANSCRIPT. Established Sept. 6, 1830. by Nat. P. Browz & Co. Proprietors SATURDAY.. ..0CT. 9, 1897. WHERE DOES JONES STAND? The expectant public is waiting anxiously for Chairman Jones’ views and attitude in regard to the recognition of silver by State platforms. One day he announces that he favors it; the next day he announces he is against it, and the next day he tries to announce that he has said nothing on the subject. Mr. Jones is evidently ashamed of the _.eompany that he is keeping, but apparently sees no way of getting awey from it. Why doesn’t he admit frankly that the silver proposition is a failure, and go back to the good old Jacksonian and Jeffersonian principles of democracy, sound money and protection? Tue electric dredge on the Kowarau river, New Zealand, made a return of 9658 ounces in gold recently. The own. ers of this dredge are reported to have obtained gold to the value of £17,000 as the result of their first year’s operations, with the work of seven men and an initial expenditure of £4,500. The company has lately finished the construction of another dredge. Tue Tucson Citizen says that the recent Arizona legislative enactment compelling the University assay office to make gold and silver assays for 50 cents each, virtually closed np the assay offices in that city. From 400 to 600 assays per month are made at the University, while the assay offices in town do not makea dozen. The law is unjust and should be repealed. 2Be Mrs Lanerry’s popularity will by no means be enhanced by the fact that her heartlessness has driven her faithfal husband to the insane asylum. His life, fortune and reason have all been sacrificed at her shrine. 4 Ste Seer Tue Kern Oounty Californian says that a Kentucky county court adjourned the other day out of respect for the memory ‘of a negro preacher. Perhaps though it was only as an excuse to go and get a drink. Dress continue to announce that strikes don’t pay. What’s the matter— it looks as if he can’t get that $200a month he was to draw as salary in return for his services as professional agitator. PLACER -COUNTY CLIPPINGS. Electric Mining Machinery — Doings Around Dutch Flat. The following items are gleaned from the Colfax Sentinel of yesterday: The Dutch Flat young man who attended the dance at Towle Saturday . evening, and came in contact with a post while running to catch the train, is somewhat disfigured, and will remain in the country until his beauty returns, The electrical machinery for the Hidden Treasure mine is in successful operation. The blower which forces the air into the mine has been started. The electric tocomotive which left Colfax, Monday has reached Centerville and the entire plant will soon be running. Wells, Fargo & Co. Agent F. M. Ackerman on Tuesday received three carier pigeons from G. W. Kinney, of Rancho del Paso, with instructions to liberate them and take note of the time. The birds were released near the express office at 3:16 p.m. They rose to a considerable hight, and after circling some three minutes took a direct course for home. A forest fire raging in a canon above Bath came near destroying that little village. The prompt work of a large party of citizens of Ba‘h and Forest Hill saved the town. The fire burned over Batcher field and past the Crome ‘Pile, through a section covered with heavy timber on both sides of the county road to Baker Ranch. The fire burned some timber on Mayflower ground and the Strobe place had a close call. Wm. Rea witha force had hard work to save the Washington Shaft , from destruction; also a large quantity of cord wood. —— ee CATARRH IN THE Heap, that trouble some and disgusting disease, may be entirely cured by a thorough course of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier.

Orders left at the ice house on the Plaza will be promptly attended to. . tf Indian Medicine Bags. The medicine bags of Navajoes, Zania and Apaches, all kindred tribes in New Mexico and Arizona, contain a curious powder, known .as_corn-pollen or hodjentin. This powder, which is the pollen of a rush, and also of maize, appears to be used as a medicine, being eaten by the sick and put on the head or other parte to case pain, but principally as a sacred offering to the sun and moon pinch of it is thrown toward end then toward the four winds for help in war ~ the chase, is pot on trail of. a snake to prevent harm it, placedon the tongue of the hunter as a restorative, hung in round the neéks of infants as a preservative and sprinkled on the dead. In fact, every action of these Indians is sanctified by this powder, so that, as volume of ‘‘The Report of Ethnology’’ (Smithsonian), ‘‘plenty of hdddentin has come to mean that a particular performance or place is sa-cred. ’” Captain Bourke shows many analogies to the use of this sacred powder both in the east and amiong the ancient Greeks and Romans, and it is clear that similar practices with regard to ‘“‘medicine’’—that is, magio—have prevailed everywhere and in all ages, for superstition seems to be the universal heritage of man, so deeply ingrained in his very nature that all the efforts of philosophers and ‘‘thirteen”’ clubs will not avail to root it out. Medicine bags or amuleta will continue to be worn openly or secretly not only by the wild Indian and the Kaffir, but by many among ourselves who cling to the beliefs handed down probably from remote prehistoric ages.—Chambers’ Journal. A Franchise For Sale. “The biggest thing I ever had on tap,’? said a citizen of Alabama, ‘‘was when I first realized that it was necesgary for me to go, out and do something for myself. Before I came face:'to face with this emergency I had been abroad and was impressed with the way they must make money at Monte Carlo. It was mathematically a sure thing and plenty of it. ‘‘After I had interested two friends we all went to Mexico, and by lavish promises succeeded in getting a franshise from the government and were to condact a mammoth gambling institution under its protection. Not the least promising feature sas a lottery, and there were to be all the other allurements that attract the devotees of chance, **It was no trouble to interest all the capital we wanted. Men of the east advanced the money, with the one proviso that they should not appear in the transaction. We imported some of the wisest gamblers of the west, and of course they went through their paces just to show what they conld do when the vast enterprises became active. One night we three proprietors took a hand to familiarize ourselves with the sports. By sunrise the gamblers had every dollar that was to go into our Monte Carlo, and we put in five years working in a silver mine to reimburse our backers. We have the franchise yet.’’——Detroit. Free Press. They Liked Victoria. As an indication of the popularity attained very early in her life by Princess Victoria it is interesting to hear that great indignation was expressed all over England when it was known that the child had not been present at her uncle’s coronation in 1831. Some said that the Duchess of Kent was in fault, others blamed the prime minister, and some asserted that Queen Adelaide was responsible for the omission. Letters and articles were published in all the newspapers, and the sensation did not subside until the Duchess of Kent explained that, owing to a weakness of the ankles from which the little Victoria was then suffering, it had been thought wiser not to expose her-to the long standing which attendance at the ceremony would have necessitated. — Arcturus is not less than 70 and + probably more.than 100 light years distant from us. This star certainly surpasses the sun in volume many thousand times. 3 The British government still employs foreign mercenaries in its army. The Garkhas, fine soldiers of Nepal, are em ployed in British India Hel Is needed by poor, tired mothers, overworked and burdened with care, debilitated and run down because of poor, thin and impoverished blood. Help is needed by the nervous sufferer, the men and women tortured with rheumatisny, neuralgia, dyspepsia, scrofula, catarrh. Help Comes Quickly When Hood’s Sarsaparilla begins to enrich; purify and vitalize the, blood, and sends it-in a healing, nourishing, invigorating stream to the nerves, muscles and organs of the body. Hood’s Sarsaparilla builds up the weak and broken down system, and cures all blood diseases, because Hoods Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier. All druggists. $1. Prepared only by C. I.
