Regli has been appointed guardian of the persons and estates of THAT OLD COMPANY. Captain Shoemaker Reviews His Pioneer Military Company. —_—, The Transcript printed the other day how Hank Knerr, once a soldier in Captain Shoemaker’s military Company, is living in poverty at Cherty Creek, Nevada. This reference provokes the Captain to become reminiscent and he thus relieves himself in the Tidings columns: “Henry Knerr was first sergeant of the Nevada Rifles, and he was a good soldier. He valiantly defended the fight "Injins, and yet did not like to show the white or any other kind of a feather. “By golden, boys,” said Searle;‘it’s tough, but we’re in for it and unless something turns up we will have to go. Let’s-go up to the Armory. I think enough of the company have skedaddled to save us.” On arriving at the Armory Shoemaker was there all alone. The situation was discussed and Searls assured his comrades that the danger had apparently passed becanse the company. would never be ordered on duty with a commander and six men in ranks. Belden urged the liability of a lot of the other members thinking what a soft thing the six had, and the result TEMPERANCE WORKERS. Program for Next Week's W. C. T. U. Convention at This City.

Chief Justice Searls was one of. its best soldiers, ex-Justice of the Supreme Court Niles was another, Justice-of the Supreme Court McFarland belonged, but would ‘not drill much but was reliable when funds were to be collected. Many other men who achieved distinctiun or prominence were members of the Rifles. “It makes us much disgusted when we read stories (or even alleged history) which tell of the roughness of mining towns in the early days. In the ’50s, when the Nevada Rifles were in existence, the men of that town dressed much better than they do in these days. The plug hat was generally worn then by professional men, and the miners when not at work had on clothes made in Eastern cities or in London. It is a mistake to say that the early Californians were rough men and rude in dressing or manners. On the contrary, those men were ceremonious and punctillious as a rule, and the theaters or dinner parties were always attended in full dress. The swallow tail coat and white cravat were part of every gentleman’s wardrobe, and most of our population here were gentlemen at home and brave to start here. ; “‘We remember the night Hamilton Hall theater, in Grass Valley, was opened for the first time. The ladies attended in fine and fashionable costumes,many of the dresses made in Paris, und the gentlemen were in evening dress. A large party came down from Nevada City to witness the play. Mrs. John Wood, the ‘Queen of Comedy and Song,’ with a splendid company opened the theater and played for a week or more to large faudiences. On the opening night‘a poém, written by Judge C. F. Smitha Harvard man and one of the most accomplished gentlemen Boston.ever produced, was read -by Mrs. Wood. That was on the 24th of January, 1859. “But we didn’t start in to be reminiscent. That grew upon us ds we thought: of Henry Knerr and the young men who started Nevada county.” Howard Douglas has returned from Calaveras county. Jas. Woodburn, of Sacramento, was in town yesterday.

Phillips and wife, of Monterey, came in on Wednesday evening’s San ~Juan stage from a visit to friends “above here, and_, left yesterday morning for their héme. This establishment was brightened up yesterday-by a visit from Miss A. Habn, Misses Hertha and Alice Voss and Mr. Theodore Tamm, who called to inform themselves in the. mysteries of the art preservative. < . ee ee NG Se Progressive Euchre Party. z There was a progressive euchre party Wednesday evening at the home of Miss Kate Matteson,and the young la dies and’ gentlemen who enjoyed her hospitality say they never spent a pleasanter evening. The following were present: Misses: Grace Morgan, Bell Miller, Lena Locklin;,’ Bell. Stover, Hattie Buhring, Sarah Miller, Ida Maltman, Rachael Morgan, Cari rie Naffziger and Fernande Muller; Messrs. Fred Bost, M. M. Baruh, Joe Baruh, George Nivens,Ralph Webber, John Canfield, Clarence Gould, Ches‘yr Chapman, Eugene Gaylord and Frank Nilon. The lady’s first prize was won by Miss Maltman and the gentleman’s by Mr. Gould. The boobyhonors were carried off by Miss Bell Miller and John Canfield. Captain Shoemaker should sit down some day and write all about the Nevada Rifles, extending his remarks up to the time that they passed out of existence. The story of their dissclutionand its causes would make mighty rich reading if told in his -inimitable style. A present citizen who was one of them gives a hint of the circumstances that would make the ground work he would build on. One of thgofficers of the company read in the Sacramento Union how there was an Indian outbreak in Siskiyou county, and the same article contained the startling intelligence that the Governor contemplated calling out the Nevada Rifles to quell the uprisirig. . This news. spread rapidly through the company and had a demoralizing effect. The ranks had all along been full, but at this whisper of stern war’s alarum there set in a stamipede that could not be checked. Member after meraber suddenly had importaat business elsewhere, and they left on the doublequick to attend to it. The Captain called a special meeting in the hope of “rounding up’ the stragglers. At the appointed time the following only, aside from Shoemaker, out of acompany of 75, responded to the call and assembled in Lones’ Armory, for the use of which no rent has been paid to this day: David Belden, now Superior Judge of Santa Clara county ; the late A. A. Sargent; Niles Searls, present Chief Justice; T. B. McFarland, of the Supreme Court now ; N. P. Brown of the Transcript; and ex-Supreme Judge A. C. Niles. The only wonder is that these gentlemen were on hand. They had met first out on the street to talk the matter over. All of them looked deathly pale and were in a quandary how to avoid Mining Accident. Cotumsia Hinz, Aug. 17, ’87. Eprror Transcript: Yesterday afternoon a cave occurred in the El Dorado Company’s Tunnel on Grizzly Ridge, severely injuring J. A. Jones, a who was at work at the time. Dr. 2 Farley of North San Juan was sent for, and found Jones suffering with a dislocated shoulder, besides being otherwise bruised. The Doctor expects to have him around again in the course of a week or ten days. M. A Break-Down. An axle of a loaded lumber wagon belonging to L. Voss broke Wednesday near the Kistle ranch on the Red Dog road, and the cargo took asudden drop. :The driver had along with him a fine large watermelon which he had with much gratification anticipated devotring later inthe day, and the fact that the melon was totally demvl ished seemed the most heart-rending circumstance of the accident. oe He. Still Lives. Frank Galeria, who received such severe injuries at the Derbec mine . Tuesday evening, was still alive Festerday, although it is generally bélieved he cannot survive long: His pulse was astonishingly strong yesterday morning. He had the beartiest kind ofa constitution, and with tands a shock that a common .man would company and acted as commissary of subsistence when those soldiers took the field. The Captain of the Nevada Rifles has always felicitated himself on the fact that he took up a young and raw youth, in the person of the Fourth Corporal, and by proper training-made ‘a: methodical man out of Nat. P. Brown and thereby built up a “A. A. Sargent was a member of the company,but he was not expected would be there would be enough present to make a complete organization when marching orders were received. go to Red Dog immediately to try a big law. suit.” ing Captain Shoemaker stated that he was.prepared to hear good excuses from the remaining platoon ; they gave them and the five solemnly marched out ofthe Armory. It leaked out afterwards that the six above named gentlemen, and Captain Shoemaker, had in their pockets, at the meeting, physician’s certificates stating that they were not physically fit for any military duty. That was the last meeting the Rifles ever held. The Indian uprising in Siskiyou county knocked them completely out at long range. Captain Shoemaker is also requestscribe yesterday about these matters not to forget to write all about the company target shoots that used to be held up back of where Dr. Hunt now lives..Merchants about town contributed prizes to be shot for, but no member was ever known to win one. The target keepers took great risks, however. ; The Captain is further admonished to describe the benefit given to Miss Kate Denriin when the, Rifles turned out with the E. Clampus Vitus order, and everything was supposed to be “all satisfactory.” The quotation marks around those last two words are put there by special request, and from the laugh that—camewith the réquest they are probably guideboards to something funny. _ Captain Shoemaker must not fail to put the joke allin when he writes— not sparing Searls, McFarland, Belden, H. B. Hosmer, Lew Teal, Hugh Thompson, et als: A Jolly Game. To while away some spare momentr Wednesday evening, Frank Lane and Wm. Hickerson, young. gentlemen from Yuba county, dropped: into the National billiard parlors and began a friendly game at one of the tables. They are considered quite good players in their own section, but make a decidedly ‘‘slow go” as compared with Nevada county experts. The points piled up at the rate of one to every six or eight shots. Frank’s brother Henry watched them awhile and concluded to have some fun at their expense. He went over and remarked quite seriously, ‘Boys, you ought to try and make better time with this business. They’ll charge you a dollar an hour for gas.”” ‘Durn the difference,” replied Frank, “we couldn’t have as much for the money doing anything else.” And they resumed playing with greater earnestness than ever. Then Henry went around and posted a whole mob of citizens. who straggled up by ones and twos, and gathered around the table as though attracted there by the superiority of the skill dis} layed. by the young men. “Mighty close call for a hard shot like that,” remarked one bystander as Hickerson rammed his ball atthe red and just missed the white. “Mind the up-curve on that, gentlemen!” enthusiastically exclaimed another, as Frank banged his ball clear over the cushion and caromed on the floor. Everybody in the crowd had something to say, and it was all of the same sort. The players bore it for ten minutes or so with commendable patience, trying their best to appear oblivious. Finally the compliments got so strong and profuse that they suddenly concluded they had an engagément elsewhere, and they put away their cues with the head man having nineteen points stillto make. A New Band at Grass Valley. The Grass Valley Union of yesterday says: A new brass band has been organized in town under the name of the Grass Valley Independent Band, with the following officers and members: W. H. Pascoe, Pres. ; R. Steele, Vice Pres. ; F. Aver, Sec. ; N. Stevens, R. Goldsworthy. f Their Business Booming.
