Rich in Golden Wealth and Easy to Get The boom in our foothill mines is now. fairly started, says the News Letter, but it will not be the part of wisdom to let it alone to take care of itsel. That it will gather the necessary momentum need not be doubted, but that it will need help, and, above all, wise direction and staying powers, is as carious. There are millions upon millions of gold: yet in our foothills, and they can be unearthed with a tithe of the labor, capital and risk involved in working the far-off region of the Yukon, where almost eternal snow and ice abound. A trip to any one of our mining counties is a picnic compared with the uncomfortable and hazardous journey to the Klondyke. In our genial climate, life camping out is a benefit to both health and spirits, and has come to be deemed:a pleasure to be eagerly sought after by the overworked denizens of our crowded cities. Mining-on one’s own account is not the hardest work in the world, and, moreover, its burden is much lightened by that hope which springs eternal in the human breast. The joys of expectancy attend every shovelful of dirt he puts into his pan, or rocker, and are gratifying to the. point of ecstacy when he sees the clean gold coming to light at the bottom of his pan. On the top of this round globe of ours, there is not a more health-giving, pleasurable, or exciting employment than that of working in the almost boundless placer regions of California. The climate is good enough to render living under a ‘. tent comfortable, and when a strike is made, and the trouble worth while, it is easy to build a log cabin, or to buy lumber for a cottage. Towns with postoftices, and with stores of all descriptions, are near at hand, and railroad transportation is not far ~ off. There are thousands of men in our cities, and, when the harvest. is all gathered, there will be thousands more on our farms and orchards who could not do a better thing for themselves, or for the prosperity of the State, than to winter among the placer mines. Almost, anywhere fair wages may be earned, with the chances good of coming upon rich pockets at. almost any time. All the old tailings, and the ground abandoned because not deemed rich enough in the early fifties, to say nothing of new discoveries now almost of daily occurrence, would pay, and pay wel] to be washed over at this time. —_——Sseeee : Office For Rent.

The Loss Is Rstimated at $18,000— Other Grass Valley ems. The Morgau House at Grass Valley was burned this morning. The fire started shortly after nine o’clock on the second floor over the kitchen, and probably from a fault in the construction of the chimney. It had gained so much headway before it was discovered that the four hose companies which arrived promptly in response to the alarm and combatted the flames gallantly, could not save the building, being only able to save the front part of the lower story, containing the office and parlor.

It was the Colts’ first defeat. They say they never can play at Watt Park, and proved it by their numerous errors at critical points in the game. “Lengthy” was not feeling very well and did not pitch his usual game, at times being hit very hard. The Colts are determined to retrieve their laurels next Sanday at Glenbrook, and are confident they can there defeat the Smiths.

Rich in Golden Wealth and Easy to Get The boom in our foothill mines is now. fairly started, says the News Letter, but it will not be the part of wisdom to let it alone to take care of itsel. That it will gather the necessary momentum need not be doubted, but that it will need help, and, above all, wise direction and staying powers, is as carious. There are millions upon millions of gold: yet in our foothills, and they can be unearthed with a tithe of the labor, capital and risk involved in working the far-off region of the Yukon, where almost eternal snow and ice abound. A trip to any one of our mining counties is a picnic compared with the uncomfortable and hazardous journey to the Klondyke. In our genial climate, life camping out is a benefit to both health and spirits, and has come to be deemed:a pleasure to be eagerly sought after by the overworked denizens of our crowded cities. Mining-on one’s own account is not the hardest work in the world, and, moreover, its burden is much lightened by that hope which springs eternal in the human breast. The joys of expectancy attend every shovelful of dirt he puts into his pan, or rocker, and are gratifying to the. point of ecstacy when he sees the clean gold coming to light at the bottom of his pan. On the top of this round globe of ours, there is not a more health-giving, pleasurable, or exciting employment than that of working in the almost boundless placer regions of California. The climate is good enough to render living under a ‘. tent comfortable, and when a strike is made, and the trouble worth while, it is easy to build a log cabin, or to buy lumber for a cottage. Towns with postoftices, and with stores of all descriptions, are near at hand, and railroad transportation is not far ~ off. There are thousands of men in our cities, and, when the harvest. is all gathered, there will be thousands more on our farms and orchards who could not do a better thing for themselves, or for the prosperity of the State, than to

winter among the placer mines. Almost, anywhere fair wages may be earned, with the chances good of coming upon rich pockets at. almost any time. All the old tailings, and the ground abandoned because not deemed rich enough in the early fifties, to say nothing of new discoveries now almost of daily occurrence, would pay, and pay wel] to be washed over at this time. —_——Sseeee : Office For Rent.

The Loss Is Rstimated at $18,000— Other Grass Valley ems. The Morgau House at Grass Valley was burned this morning. The fire started shortly after nine o’clock on the second floor over the kitchen, and probably from a fault in the construction of the chimney. It had gained so much headway before it was discovered that the four hose companies which arrived promptly in response to the alarm and combatted the flames gallantly, could not save the building, being only able to save the front part of the lower story, containing the office and parlor.
