the people that experience has taught
us that itis not good judgment to wait
until the damage has been done before
taking action. Five dredgers are at
work ou the river, or adjacent to it, between Gridley and Oroville, and more
are to be added inthe near future. A

by W. P. Hammon and A. F. Jones to
a dredging company, and out of which
the two gentlemen are said to have
made considerable money.

Freeman & Bates of “San Francisco
who have taken up the land as a placer
location. Two new electric dredgers
soon are to be placed in the river at
Oroville by. Geo. Bvans, of the San
Francisco Dredger Oo., and it looks as.
if this business were to receive a new
impetus. One dredger in particular, it
is said, has done some good work in
the-river, having taken ont at one run
the sum of $5,000 at au expense of
$1,000. When the new élcctric power
is ready for delivery the cost of running these dredgers will be materially
lessened.
Maryland Superstitions.
There are superstitions throughout
all the counties of Maryland concerning Crossroads and running water.
{Witches are supposed to make their
home at the crossing of two roads and
to appear-there at midnight. One peeuliar thing about witches is that they
cannot get across running water, and
a stream of any sort always acts as
a protection to the nightly prowler,
who will follow along the bank of a
atreaminpreference to the road.
These are some of the things which
are more generally believed in the
country around Washington and along
the eastern shore. Some of the artieles of the creed of the superstitious
in that neighborhood are: : .
If you sweep your room at night,
you sweep away your wealth.
Never. shake crumbs out of a window after dark. They are supposed
to fall into the eyes of the Lord and
to disturb the spirits of the dead who
swander abroad at. night.
Don’t wash your hands in water in

warts.—Baltimore Sun.
Sly Old Commodore.
“When Commodore Vanderbilt was
alive,” says a New York Central official, “the board of directors of the
New York Central used to find their
work all cut out for them when they
met. -All they had to do was to ratify
his plans and adjourn. Yet they had
their uses. Occasionally a man would
come to him with some scheme which
he did not care to refuse outright.
“ My directors are a difficult body
of men to handle,’ he would say. ‘I'll
submit it to.’em, but I warn you that
they are hard to manage.’
“The matter would be ‘submitted to
the board when it assembled and
promptly rejected,
“‘There,” the commodore would
gay when his visitor came to learn the
result. ‘I did the best 1 could, but 1
told you in advance that my directors
‘were an obstinate lot.”—New York
