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

learn the manual of-arms and would
step off. with his right foot.-In endeavoring to shoulder arms, when
Sergeant Knerr was drilling the awkward squad, private Sargent came
hear putting ou: private John.Dawley’s (the banker) eye. Senator Sargent was after that only a nominal
member of the company.“That was a company of which the
commander can be proud after all
these years. 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.”

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

was won by Miss Maltman and the gentleman’s by Mr. Gould. The boobyhonors were carried off by Miss Bell

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.

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.

and found Jones suffering with a dislocated shoulder, besides being otherwise bruised. The Doctor expects to
have him around again in the course

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

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

the capabilities of the climate and soil
of your county. All interested in the
advancement of your locality should
héarti.v join in a movement to have a
creditable display of its products, for
which the management will afford every facility. No charge is made for
space, and.it is to be hoped that the
public spirited citizens of Nevada
county Will aid the members of the
Committee in collecting a fine exhibit.
Any communication or inquiry directed to the Névada Committee, or
to the officers of the Mechanics’ Institute, will meet with prompt attention
and reply.
