No-Truth in ‘the Statement. The statement t published by a Grass Valley paper to the effect that a young girl hdd been enticed away from her bome by a member of the Pacific Remedy Company, is false. When the manager of the company learned of the report he instituted an investigation and learned that the girl in question had been punished and for this reason ran away from her home-at Grass Valley and:came to her aunt’s house on Gold Fiat, near this city. She says she does not know any one inthe Remedy Company, and denies that the was enticed pene hee from home. ‘Theatrical Performance. ‘Another large ‘audience assembled at Armory Hall last night to witness the second petformance given by the Pacific Remedy Company. The play pre_ pented was “Comrades,” and the different characters were tolerably Weli sustained.

The management feel very wel, pleased with the reception given the company, and are confident of having good houses and selling considerabl: _medicine during their stay. Says te Was Held Up. ‘A Chinaman notified the officers last » wight that at about 11 o'clock, while he was passing along York street near ‘ Gault’s bakery, a woman coming from the opposite direction ordered: him to stop aud throw up his hands. He did so and the.woman searched him, but as he had no money or other valuables she took from him a bag of peanuts that he had in his hand.

Preston, who has just returned from a two months’ trip across the continent, said today to a ‘TranSORIPT man: “My first stop was at Salt Lake. City where I arrived on July 4th. Thousands: of the Christian Endeavor excursionists had halted there in their literary exercises of the day in the great Mormon tabernacle, which has a seating capacity for twelve thousand persons. -I-was present during a portion of the-exercises, and, although the great auditorium was crowded to its utmost capacity, yet the faintest strains of the music and the words of the speaker, uttered in the ordinary tones of conversation, were distinctly audible to every member of the audience, even in the most remote portions of the auditorium. The dome shape. of the roof, as designed by Brigham Young, gives to the great auditorium wonderful accoustic effects. “At the International Mining Congress at Denver, to which I was a. delegate, a number of interesting and instructive addresses were delivered, but the principal business, so far as practical results were concerned, centered in the selection of a: place for the next meeting, the future name of the association and the report of the committee on resolutions. ,After a long debate and several ballots Salt Lake City was selected as the place of the next meeting, and the organization was named The International Mining Congress. The only resolution proposed which had any serious bearing on the mining interests of this State was that which proposed to restrict all mining claims to the perpendicular lines of their external boundaries. Asa member of the committee on resolutions I succeeded in preventing that clause from being adopted by the convention. “At Cincinnati I was entertained by
Mr. Isaac Joseph and his friends, several of whom are largely interested in the Good Title mine, near this city. In my inspection of the city I was favorably impressed with the commodious and substantial business blocks, the conservative methods of doing business and the evidences of thrift and . prosperous business enterprises. Quite a large proportion of the population is of ‘German parentage. The industry and thrift of this element of the population is every way apparent, The pride of the city, however, is in its fine suburban homes, which are scattered throughout the beautiful parks of natural forest. trees among hills and lakes to the northward of the city for miles in extent, and yet all are in easy access of the city by means of the electric street railways which traverse the park. “At the. city of Washington I attended the President's reception, visited. both houses of Congress while in session, and also inspected the various public buildings. That which interested and impressed me most for its architectural beauty is the Library of Congrese building, which has just been completed at a cost of six millions of dollars. It is a palace of marble surmounted by a gilded dome, Its vestibule is ornamented with fifty beautiful and stately pfliars of marble in the Corinthian style of architecture. Its numerous and vast corridors are finished in varied colors in marble and are ornamented with marble busts, statues and rich paintings of historic persons and scenes and of allegorical figures, The.balconies and ceiling of the dome above the rotunda abound in an endless variety and profusion of ornamentation from the brush of the painter and the chisel of the sculptor. “The rich verdure which abounds in the fields and forests of the Eastern and Middle States always attracts the attention and commands the admiration of the residents of the Pacific Coast who are accustomed to the brown and seemingly barren landscapes of our longdry summer. The rains, however, which are usually such a blessing to the Eastern farmer, have, along the Atlantic Coast, fromr Pennsylvania northward, been entirely too frequent and copious this season for profitable harvesting and .haying. I passed some fields where the hay had been ruined by rain before it could be housed and others in which the grass was still standing and: had ripened and faded anti] it was unfit for hay. The partially barvested grain also’ suffered some from the frequent rains, and yet harvests are abundant and the general prospect for profitable crops is good throughout this section of the country. In the Northwestern States, however, the conditions were all more favorable. M@hroughont the vast areas of Kansas and Nebraska the corn everywhere showed a luxuriant growth, while in the equally vast and seemingly endless wheatfields of the Dakotas the grain gives’ promise of an abundant and a profitable yield. As I mingled with the farmers throughout these various Sections of our country I found them as a class cheerful and hopeful, rejoicing in the abundance of their crops and in the prospéct of a peady sale of, their products at prices which would enable many of them to free themselves from debt and to prepare for an era. of prosperity. Asa result of my observations and of conversation with well-informed people of the various sections visited I am thoroughly impressed with the belief that the worst period of our industrial depression has been passed and that as a Nation we are surely entering a period of prosperity whieh wi.) bes5.a+ :: ze marked and pronounced ina yeur or two hence, and which will have a strong tendency and restlessness which has been so generally manifest during the preceding four or five years.” GRASS VALLEY NEWS, the Telephone Today.
