The proposition of Gooley’s Band; to furnish music at the Park during the progress of the Fair, has been accepted. $225 is-the consideration stipulated. E. W. Brownell of this city has purchased the saloon at Grass Valley heretofore conducted by Wm. Poole who is about to remove to San Francisco. The Band of Hope will meet’ at the Methodist. Vestry at ten o’clock Friday, and go from there to Ragon’s’ grove where the little folks will havea picnic. Mr. Nickerson gives it as his opinion, from the material already collect_ed and-promised, that Nevada county " has an-equilchance —of -winning-the first prizes at the State and Mechanics Fairs. A. D. Sutton is having put up on his ranch a large barn, the lumber from the old Eureka hoisting works being utilized in the construction. J. S. Holbrook is the charge of the work. Woods, the ‘horse-trainer, got more Grass Valley whisky the other night than he could stand comfortably. He went tothe Grass Valley Chinatown and created a disturbance. He paida fine of $10 a8 a penalty for his nonsense. The Woman’s Christian Temperance Union had an interesting and profitable convention yesterday at the Methodist Church in this city: There were in attendance quite a numerous delegation from other parts of the county, and the programme as hereto» fore published was carried out. contractor —in Odd Fellows’ Meeting. On Monday evening Mistletoe Encampment, No. 47, 1. 0. O. F., received an official visitation from. J» F. Crosett, Grand Patriarch, and A. R. Lord, Grand High Priest. There were also present as guests five members of Abou Ben Adhem Encampment at North Bloomfield, five from Auburn Encampment at Dutch Flat, and 25 from Union Encampment. at Grass. Valley. Three degrees were conferred on two candidates. At halfpast eleven o'clock a recess of an hour was taken, and the gendlemen went to the National Hotel where they were served with one of the finest banquets ever spread here on such an occasion. Miss Ida Maltman chanced to be spending the evening at the Hotel with some friends, and the Odd Fellows persuaded her to favor them with some vocul solos. She sang beautifully, and the appreciation of the listeners was manifested by enthusiastic cheers supplemented by —an—unanimous vote of thanks tendered to the sweet-voiced young lady. After the festivities at the Hotel, “the members returned to the Hall and resumed the ceremonial work, It was three o’clock yesterday morning when they adjourned. The Coe Mine Attached. ©. H. Hankins has commenced suit -in the Superior Court against C. B. Shattuck and A. W. Stoddart to recover $1,265.61, and an attachment has been levied on the Coe mine in Grass Valley District. Shattuck is the missing Superintendent of the Eaglebird mine. It is said that he borrowed a large sum of money (some say $10,000) from Mr. Stoddart’ mother to prospect the Coe with, and put young Stoddart. in as Superintendent. Whether this be true or not, the operations at the Coe were suddenly suspended when Shattuck skipped out of the county and-left the Eaglebird to suffer the consequences -f his management. The Eaglebird ig a first-class mine, and has paid large profits; but some of the ring connected with its control have squeezed its treasury dry in trying to keep up other claims that were not yielding enough to pay their way. The Spanish Mine. A telegram received at this city night before last’ states that Superintendent Bradley was successful in his mission to’ San‘ Francisco, and has made arrangements w.iereby work will ~-go right along at the Spanish mine as usual. The creditors of the property have agreed to this arrangement, the understanding being that all money over running expenses that is taken out will be applied to the liquidation of their claims, It will thus take but but a few weeks to pay off the indebtedness at one hundred cents on the dollar, and the mine will continue to be a producer and give employment to quite a force of men, For those troubles peculiar. to the female organism, the Duplex Galvanic Belt has no equal.

This Society was organized as anincorporation May “11th, 1874, and the followi1g well known citizens constituted its first Board of Trustees: Samnel Clutter, E. M. Preston, John Pattison, M. L. Marsh, N. P. Brown, J. C. Rich, W. C. Groves, W. H. Crawford, A. Goldsmith, A. H. Parker and J. D. Fleming. ; ing of funds and supplies, and the distribution of the same to the needy poor in our midst.” In September, 1876, Mr. Goldsmith having removed from Nevada City, J. M. Walling was elected as Trustee in his stead, and also Secretary, which position he has since filled. During all this time E. M. Preston has been the Treasurer. Samuel Clutter was President until . June, 1879, when he resigned, and W. C. Groves was chosen his successor and has been continued_as such tothe “present. . ; Originally the Society funds were derived who.ly from donations from the citizens of this city. For som years after the date of incorporation it received aid from the State, but upon the adoption of the Constitution of 1879 such aid ceased. The aid received from the State, and: small sums from other sources, sufficed it to meet all calls up to a very recent period. Since any collection has been taken in support of the society, there has been paid by itin money for the relief ot those needing assistance the sum ot! $3,226. During this time it has been able to respond to hundreds of applications for food, clothing and fuel. It has always dispensed its charities in secret, as far as possible, thus avoiding all ‘publicity of or humiliation on the part of those relieved. Its finances are at last exhausted, and it is now about $35 in debt. tu its treasurer. Not one cent has ever been allowed to any one connected with the society for any services rendered. Calls for assistance which continue to be made prove the necessity ofsuch an organization, funds to enable it to continue its charitable work, the Society has appointed two.committees of three each to canvass the city for donations of money. Messrs. Marsh, Crawford and Parker constitute one, and Messrs. Preston. Browh and Walling the other committee. They intend to eall upon citizens during the present week, and hope to obtain a liberal donation, from all. “It has been so long since the Society has Leen obliged to ask for aid that many are. unaware of its existence, There is no cheaper or more economical method of dispensing charity. Frequently poor persons, after strug: gling along for months, find thei) means exhausted. A little assistance at that point enables them to make a new start, and for months they earn their own living, while if the needed assistance is not afforded at the proper time they become paupera indeed: How His Head Got Hurt, head and a baby, who came down from North Bloomfield Monday, tella doleful story. He says some time ago his wife went up there to work at a boarding house, and that when he went for her a few days ago to take her back to San Francisco he learned that she had formed an attachment for her employer that left him entirely out in the coldy He got affairs straightened out to the extent that she resumed wifely relations with him until one night his rival got’ drunk and began shooting into the bedroom where Mr. and Mrs. Ricca were. Mr. Ricca says that he escaped through a window for the: time being, but later he had an encounter with the boarding house keeper in which the latter was reinforced by several other men and made it very hot for the object of their combined wrath, who was during the melee struck on the head with a beer glass. Ricca furtier states that he instituted legal proceedings against his assailants, but finally agreed not to press the issue because he received fifty dollars for such a determination. Since making the bargain he is sorry for it and now wants legal redress. The other side of the story has not yet been learned. Something For Idle Boys To Do, There are in this city a number of boys who get into mischief of nights because they have nothing better to do. There are also some electric lights and many bats. ‘The idle boys here shovld emulate a youth in an eastern town. He prowls around the electric lights at night flourishing a long whip, with @ fish-hook baited with a mothmiller at the end, and in this way éatches bats who are in search o_ insects attracted by the light. He makes frequent captures, and. gets 50 cents apiece for the bats. Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.

With view to obtaining further L. Ricca, the Italian with a broken . Nevada County to the Front. Messrs. Nickerson and Werry are meeting with remarkably good success in securing articles for exhibition at the State and Mechanics’ Fairs. With very few exceptions they have found all to whom they applied ready and willing to contribute whatever they may havé that the committee called worthy of exhibition. Mr. Nickerson’ list already includes articles enough to fill the space allotted tohim at the Pavilion in Sacramento,and he is still traveling to secure additional material. A niimber of persons have agreed to send him fruit from time to time in order to keep upa fresh supply during the entire exhibition. People who think the frost has ruined the fruit crop will be convinced of their_error when they view Mr. Nickerson’s exhibits. The articles which will attract the greatest attention, however, will be the mineral exhibit at the Mechanics’ Fair. Enough specimens have already been secured by Mr. Werry to make that feature of. the exhibition an assured success. Among the minerals will be numerous-specimens of quartz, a . ‘ showing free gold in abundance; samples of concentrated sulphurets assaying from $200 to $550 per ton; a complete forestry exhibit, fossil woods and other material such as will be a complete novelty—no other such exhibibition having been. made at the Mechanics Fair. The mining men and others are showing their interest in the exhibition by their willingness to contribute specimens and other mate: ‘rial for the collection. The Washington and Bloomfield stage companies have offered to bring all the material for exhibition free of charge, and all who have any dealings with the committee, including the livery stable men, have shown commendable liberality and a willinghess-to do all in their power to make Nevada county’s first exhibit what it ought to be, an unbounded and popular’success. We hazard little in predicting, from the articles already contributed, that Nevada will have one of the most interssting and popular county exhibits in the Pavilion at San Francisco. + eee The Mayor and the Army. Mayor Gregory, of Sacramento, recently attended the Salvation Army meetings at Grass Valley, and was astonished to find them held in a building as large as Hunt’s Hall at this city, and which was packed to its utmost extent with an audience that required neither policeman nor doorkeeper to maintain perfect order. The ‘ontrast to the meetings in Sacramento, where the army were pelted with sggs8 and potatoes, was very marked. “layor Gregory is said to have declared that hereafter the Salvation Army in, Sacramento shall, as‘far as he is concerned, receive the benefit of the fullast protection of the law. Edward Coleman, who has just returned from the East, was astonished to find the organization there composed of many wealthy people and owning“‘barracks”’ in some cases worth $100,000. Some of the Salvationists claim there is no sity that has ever rejected them but aas been cursed with deadness, dryrot_and decay as a judgment from God. Fine Crop of Honey Dew. During dry, hot weather, certain trees and plants exude from their leaves a sweet, sticky substance which somes out in drops like dew, and is called honey dew. Willow trees ‘are :ommonly said to be more prolific of this than any other kind, but the majority of trees are found to produce it when the atmospheric conditions are just right. In front of Wm. H. Crawford's residence place on Washington street are a linden and a so-called plaintain tree growing side by side. A strata of air conditioned just right to lraw out the sweetness from a portion xf the leaves on each of the trees passes along the southerly side of them this summer, and asa result the sidewalk, street and a pile of cord wood under the affected parts of them are thickly coated with the saccharine matter which drips from the leaves. —+0@e0—— An Excellent Feature. Among the other Nevada county exhibits at the Mechanics’ Fair in San Francisco this Fall, will be a ‘‘Pioneer’s Gallery” which will contain the photographs of pioneers and other early representative citizens. This department will also include paintings and other pictures of public buildings and local scenery, If properly handled, this will be one of the most interesting features-of the Nevada county exhibit. . da cpemmane Landed On His Heels. Young Mr. Scadden while working for the Electric Light Company _ last Thursday fell a distance of thirty feet from a pole near the Half Mile House, and landing plump on_ his heels received a shock of a painful character. His teeth came together with such force when he struck the ground as to produce ulceration, and he has been compelled to temporarily quit work. —_—_—_—_—_—_————— A Gift for All.

T. Hubbard, traveling representative of the Sacramento house of Mebius & Co.,. was in town. yesterday. Mr. Hubbard, who hasa thorough acquaintance of the upper portion of the State, says thatno county offers better inducements to homeseekers than Nevada, and he is of the opinion that there will be a land boom*here before many months have passed. + eo Chicago Park: . i The Union says: Those who have the best opportunity of knowing anything of the proposed new settlement to be made at Storms’ Station by the Chicago Park Company, have no doubt of the success of the scheme of planting the colony. In all the company have bonded over 6000 acres of land, and have four, six and twelve months in which to make the payments, and it is stated that there is no doubt that the first payment will be promptly forthcoming, and that the first arrival of colonists will be inside of the next two months. As has been stated heretofore a town will be laid out at Storms’. Station, which isa sightly location, and adjoining it will bea large park, which is the, favorite place for picnic excursions from Grass Valley and Nevada City. Among the first things that will be! done will be the erection of a hotel, and about the same time other buildings for business houses will be started. The lands are also to’ be divided into small tracts. Work has already been commenced at-several place. on the town site to open springs to furnish:a necessary supply of water. pa aS Contribution to California History. An historical document of the first importance will appear in the September number of the Overland Monthly, which finally settles the difficult point of the exact _date_of the discovery of gold in the tail-race of Sutter & Marshall’s-mill. It is a record by the only man present) who made an entry in his diary on the day of the discovery. H. W. Bigler was a member of the Mormon Battalion that was enlisted to aid in the conquest of of California, and was employed in building the famous mill at Coloma. His-diary-is~of-the greatest interest, as well as of the greatest value historically, and is now printed for the first time. It was copied by Bigler himself and lightly revised in orthography and syntax by Mr. John S. Hittell. ee See Shipping Pears Wanted.

H®used a knife to force the cartridge into place, when the thing exploded-and the powder blew into his eyes and hurt them very much. He was promptly treated and up to this morning he had not opened his eyes, but it is supposed that his sight will be all right. AHealthy Stomach Is a blessing for which thousands of our dyspeptic countrymen and women sigh in vain, and to obtain which . swallow muc.: medicine unavailingly. . For no ailment—probably—are there . so many-alleged remedies as fr dys-. pepsia. The man of humbug is con. stantly ulutted with the dollars and dimes of those who resort to one nostrum alter another in the vain hope of cbtuining relief, at least, from this vexatious and obstinate malady, Ex. rience indicates Hostetter’s Stomach . itters as a means of eradicating dyspsia, in which a firm reliance can placed. No remedy has in threa decades and over established guch a reputation, none has received such unqualified professional sanction. It isan admirable invigorant, because it enriches the blood, and not only thie, but it thoroughly regulates the . bowels, kidneys and bladder. The nervous symtoms are usually relieved by the medicine. For Piles, Constipation and derangy. ed Digestion, the Duplex Galvanic Belt is your hope. Consult Dr. Sherwood, National Hotel. a24tf % Washington Township items. Si Harroun has put up two wheels and a derrick in the river near Rocky . Bar, just above the town of Washington, and is now engaged in sinking to the bed of the stream for pay gravel. If the high water holds off a reasonable length of time he.will take out considerable gold as a reward for his industry. At Brandy Flat, a little ways belot the town, a four stamp mill is.crashing away on cement from the famous old lead there that has been worked off and on for thirty years or so, and yielded a ‘milion dollars more or less. The gravel there for a distance of half a mile‘in length and 200 or 300 feet in width has been percolated in past ages by water carrying much lime, and has become firmly cemented together. Sonie men haye nade fortunes in working that cement, but the last man that went atit (N. W. Knowlton) onan extensive scale, did not do.so till after the cream of the deposit had been taken out, and he sank quite a sum of money. The man who now -has a mill there is operating on a limited scale and seems to be doing well enough, Messrs. Foster & Grissell are grangers this time of the year. They. will continue as such till they have completed geting in their hay. Ina week or two, when that is done, they will go back to their first and dearest love, and resume operations on the Champion quartz mine, near the Eaglebird. The lumber is being hauled to.Ormonde for a new and very large hotel to be built by the Washington Mining Company. That town is the most altitudinous in the State that can-boast of a boom, unless Sierra City puts in a claim for the distinction. : pene Capable of Making Two Exhibits. The Grass Valley Union makes this sensible reply: to the San Francisco MininggAdvocate’s article in which the latter paper criticises the intention of Nevada county to make .exhibits both at the State and Mechanics’ Institute Fairs, and presupposes that it will be a frittering away of effort and money by dividing the exhibits: The Advocate is evidently not well informed as to how the county exhibits will be made. The exhibits at Sucramento will be horticultural and agricultural, and at’ San’ Francisco the same with the addition of a fine mineral collection. Sacramento. is not friendly to. the mining interests, therefore it has been determined that it would be better to send all the minerals to the San Fair, as a mineral exhibit would b» better appreciated there, as there do mostly congregate the men who are interest edin mining affairs, and who seek information respecting mines. The o.her exhibits of fruit, ete., will not be wanting in merit because the county will offer hke productions at Sacramento, and when the display is made the Advocate will have no cause to blush for Nevada county, Whether as a preducer of golden or, horticultural wealth.

The proposition of Gooley’s Band; to furnish music at the Park during the progress of the Fair, has been accepted. $225 is-the consideration stipulated. E. W. Brownell of this city has purchased the saloon at Grass Valley heretofore conducted by Wm. Poole who is about to remove to San Francisco. The Band of Hope will meet’ at the Methodist. Vestry at ten o’clock Friday, and go from there to Ragon’s’ grove where the little folks will havea picnic. Mr. Nickerson gives it as his opinion, from the material already collect_ed and-promised, that Nevada county " has an-equilchance —of -winning-the first prizes at the State and Mechanics Fairs. A. D. Sutton is having put up on his ranch a large barn, the lumber from the old Eureka hoisting works being utilized in the construction. J. S. Holbrook is the charge of the work. Woods, the ‘horse-trainer, got more Grass Valley whisky the other night than he could stand comfortably. He went tothe Grass Valley Chinatown and created a disturbance. He paida fine of $10 a8 a penalty for his nonsense. The Woman’s Christian Temperance Union had an interesting and profitable convention yesterday at the Methodist Church in this city: There were in attendance quite a numerous delegation from other parts of the county, and the programme as hereto» fore published was carried out. contractor —in Odd Fellows’ Meeting. On Monday evening Mistletoe Encampment, No. 47, 1. 0. O. F., received an official visitation from. J» F. Crosett, Grand Patriarch, and A. R. Lord, Grand High Priest. There were also present as guests five members of Abou Ben Adhem Encampment at North Bloomfield, five from Auburn Encampment at Dutch Flat, and 25 from Union Encampment. at Grass. Valley. Three degrees were conferred on two candidates. At halfpast eleven o'clock a recess of an hour was taken, and the gendlemen went to the National Hotel where they were served with one of the finest banquets ever spread here on such an occasion. Miss Ida Maltman chanced to be spending the evening at the Hotel with some friends, and the Odd Fellows persuaded her to favor them with some vocul solos. She sang beautifully, and the appreciation of the listeners was manifested by enthusiastic cheers supplemented by —an—unanimous vote of thanks tendered to the sweet-voiced young lady. After the festivities at the Hotel, “the members returned to the Hall and resumed the ceremonial work, It was three o’clock yesterday morning when they adjourned. The Coe Mine Attached. ©. H. Hankins has commenced suit -in the Superior Court against C. B. Shattuck and A. W. Stoddart to recover $1,265.61, and an attachment has been levied on the Coe mine in Grass Valley District. Shattuck is the missing Superintendent of the Eaglebird mine. It is said that he borrowed a large sum of money (some say $10,000) from Mr. Stoddart’ mother to prospect the Coe with, and put young Stoddart. in as Superintendent. Whether this be true or not, the operations at the Coe were suddenly suspended when Shattuck skipped out of the county and-left the Eaglebird to suffer the consequences -f his management. The Eaglebird ig a first-class mine, and has paid large profits; but some of the ring connected with its control have squeezed its treasury dry in trying to keep up other claims that were not yielding enough to pay their way. The Spanish Mine. A telegram received at this city night before last’ states that Superintendent Bradley was successful in his mission to’ San‘ Francisco, and has made arrangements w.iereby work will ~-go right along at the Spanish mine as usual. The creditors of the property have agreed to this arrangement, the understanding being that all money over running expenses that is taken out will be applied to the liquidation of their claims, It will thus take but but a few weeks to pay off the indebtedness at one hundred cents on the dollar, and the mine will continue to be a producer and give employment to quite a force of men, For those troubles peculiar. to the female organism, the Duplex Galvanic Belt has no equal.

This Society was organized as anincorporation May “11th, 1874, and the followi1g well known citizens constituted its first Board of Trustees: Samnel Clutter, E. M. Preston, John Pattison, M. L. Marsh, N. P. Brown, J. C. Rich, W. C. Groves, W. H. Crawford, A. Goldsmith, A. H. Parker and J. D. Fleming. ; ing of funds and supplies, and the distribution of the same to the needy poor in our midst.” In September, 1876, Mr. Goldsmith having removed from Nevada City, J. M. Walling was elected as Trustee in his stead, and also Secretary, which position he has since filled. During all this time E. M. Preston has been the Treasurer. Samuel Clutter was President until . June, 1879, when he resigned, and W. C. Groves was chosen his successor and has been continued_as such tothe “present. . ; Originally the Society funds were derived who.ly from donations from the citizens of this city. For som years after the date of incorporation it received aid from the State, but upon the adoption of the Constitution of 1879 such aid ceased. The aid received from the State, and: small sums from other sources, sufficed it to meet all calls up to a very recent period. Since any collection has been taken in support of the society, there has been paid by itin money for the relief ot those needing assistance the sum ot! $3,226. During this time it has been able to respond to hundreds of applications for food, clothing and fuel. It has always dispensed its charities in secret, as far as possible, thus avoiding all ‘publicity of or humiliation on the part of those relieved. Its finances are at last exhausted, and it is now about $35 in debt. tu its treasurer. Not one cent has ever been allowed to any one connected with the society for any services rendered. Calls for assistance which continue to be made prove the necessity ofsuch an organization, funds to enable it to continue its charitable work, the Society has appointed two.committees of three each to canvass the city for donations of money. Messrs. Marsh, Crawford and Parker constitute one, and Messrs. Preston. Browh and Walling the other committee. They intend to eall upon citizens during the present week, and hope to obtain a liberal donation, from all. “It has been so long since the Society has Leen obliged to ask for aid that many are. unaware of its existence, There is no cheaper or more economical method of dispensing charity. Frequently poor persons, after strug: gling along for months, find thei) means exhausted. A little assistance at that point enables them to make a new start, and for months they earn their own living, while if the needed assistance is not afforded at the proper time they become paupera indeed: How His Head Got Hurt, head and a baby, who came down from North Bloomfield Monday, tella doleful story. He says some time ago his wife went up there to work at a boarding house, and that when he went for her a few days ago to take her back to San Francisco he learned that she had formed an attachment for her employer that left him entirely out in the coldy He got affairs straightened out to the extent that she resumed wifely relations with him until one night his rival got’ drunk and began shooting into the bedroom where Mr. and Mrs. Ricca were. Mr. Ricca says that he escaped through a window for the: time being, but later he had an encounter with the boarding house keeper in which the latter was reinforced by several other men and made it very hot for the object of their combined wrath, who was during the melee struck on the head with a beer glass. Ricca furtier states that he instituted legal proceedings against his assailants, but finally agreed not to press the issue because he received fifty dollars for such a determination. Since making the bargain he is sorry for it and now wants legal redress. The other side of the story has not yet been learned. Something For Idle Boys To Do, There are in this city a number of boys who get into mischief of nights because they have nothing better to do. There are also some electric lights and many bats. ‘The idle boys here shovld emulate a youth in an eastern town. He prowls around the electric lights at night flourishing a long whip, with @ fish-hook baited with a mothmiller at the end, and in this way éatches bats who are in search o_ insects attracted by the light. He makes frequent captures, and. gets 50 cents apiece for the bats. Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.

With view to obtaining further L. Ricca, the Italian with a broken . Nevada County to the Front. Messrs. Nickerson and Werry are meeting with remarkably good success in securing articles for exhibition at the State and Mechanics’ Fairs. With very few exceptions they have found all to whom they applied ready and willing to contribute whatever they may havé that the committee called worthy of exhibition. Mr. Nickerson’ list already includes articles enough to fill the space allotted tohim at the Pavilion in Sacramento,and he is still traveling to secure additional material. A niimber of persons have agreed to send him fruit from time to time in order to keep upa fresh supply during the entire exhibition. People who think the frost has ruined the fruit crop will be convinced of their_error when they view Mr. Nickerson’s exhibits. The articles which will attract the greatest attention, however, will be the mineral exhibit at the Mechanics’ Fair. Enough specimens have already been secured by Mr. Werry to make that feature of. the exhibition an assured success. Among the minerals will be numerous-specimens of quartz, a . ‘ showing free gold in abundance; samples of concentrated sulphurets assaying from $200 to $550 per ton; a complete forestry exhibit, fossil woods and other material such as will be a complete novelty—no other such exhibibition having been. made at the Mechanics Fair. The mining men and others are showing their interest in the exhibition by their willingness to contribute specimens and other mate: ‘rial for the collection. The Washington and Bloomfield stage companies have offered to bring all the material for exhibition free of charge, and all who have any dealings with the committee, including the livery stable men, have shown commendable liberality and a willinghess-to do all in their power to make Nevada county’s first exhibit what it ought to be, an unbounded and popular’success. We hazard little in predicting, from the articles already contributed, that Nevada will have one of the most interssting and popular county exhibits in the Pavilion at San Francisco. + eee The Mayor and the Army. Mayor Gregory, of Sacramento, recently attended the Salvation Army meetings at Grass Valley, and was astonished to find them held in a building as large as Hunt’s Hall at this city, and which was packed to its utmost extent with an audience that required neither policeman nor doorkeeper to maintain perfect order. The ‘ontrast to the meetings in Sacramento, where the army were pelted with sggs8 and potatoes, was very marked. “layor Gregory is said to have declared that hereafter the Salvation Army in, Sacramento shall, as‘far as he is concerned, receive the benefit of the fullast protection of the law. Edward Coleman, who has just returned from the East, was astonished to find the organization there composed of many wealthy people and owning“‘barracks”’ in some cases worth $100,000. Some of the Salvationists claim there is no sity that has ever rejected them but aas been cursed with deadness, dryrot_and decay as a judgment from God. Fine Crop of Honey Dew. During dry, hot weather, certain trees and plants exude from their leaves a sweet, sticky substance which somes out in drops like dew, and is called honey dew. Willow trees ‘are :ommonly said to be more prolific of this than any other kind, but the majority of trees are found to produce it when the atmospheric conditions are just right. In front of Wm. H. Crawford's residence place on Washington street are a linden and a so-called plaintain tree growing side by side. A strata of air conditioned just right to lraw out the sweetness from a portion xf the leaves on each of the trees passes along the southerly side of them this summer, and asa result the sidewalk, street and a pile of cord wood under the affected parts of them are thickly coated with the saccharine matter which drips from the leaves. —+0@e0—— An Excellent Feature. Among the other Nevada county exhibits at the Mechanics’ Fair in San Francisco this Fall, will be a ‘‘Pioneer’s Gallery” which will contain the photographs of pioneers and other early representative citizens. This department will also include paintings and other pictures of public buildings and local scenery, If properly handled, this will be one of the most interesting features-of the Nevada county exhibit. . da cpemmane Landed On His Heels. Young Mr. Scadden while working for the Electric Light Company _ last Thursday fell a distance of thirty feet from a pole near the Half Mile House, and landing plump on_ his heels received a shock of a painful character. His teeth came together with such force when he struck the ground as to produce ulceration, and he has been compelled to temporarily quit work. —_—_—_—_—_—_————— A Gift for All.

T. Hubbard, traveling representative of the Sacramento house of Mebius & Co.,. was in town. yesterday. Mr. Hubbard, who hasa thorough acquaintance of the upper portion of the State, says thatno county offers better inducements to homeseekers than Nevada, and he is of the opinion that there will be a land boom*here before many months have passed. + eo Chicago Park: . i The Union says: Those who have the best opportunity of knowing anything of the proposed new settlement to be made at Storms’ Station by the Chicago Park Company, have no doubt of the success of the scheme of planting the colony. In all the company have bonded over 6000 acres of land, and have four, six and twelve months in which to make the payments, and it is stated that there is no doubt that the first payment will be promptly forthcoming, and that the first arrival of colonists will be inside of the next two months. As has been stated heretofore a town will be laid out at Storms’. Station, which isa sightly location, and adjoining it will bea large park, which is the, favorite place for picnic excursions from Grass Valley and Nevada City. Among the first things that will be! done will be the erection of a hotel, and about the same time other buildings for business houses will be started. The lands are also to’ be divided into small tracts. Work has already been commenced at-several place. on the town site to open springs to furnish:a necessary supply of water. pa aS Contribution to California History. An historical document of the first importance will appear in the September number of the Overland Monthly, which finally settles the difficult point of the exact _date_of the discovery of gold in the tail-race of Sutter & Marshall’s-mill. It is a record by the only man present) who made an entry in his diary on the day of the discovery. H. W. Bigler was a member of the Mormon Battalion that was enlisted to aid in the conquest of of California, and was employed in building the famous mill at Coloma. His-diary-is~of-the greatest interest, as well as of the greatest value historically, and is now printed for the first time. It was copied by Bigler himself and lightly revised in orthography and syntax by Mr. John S. Hittell.

He was promptly treated and up to this morning he had not opened his eyes, but it is supposed that his sight will be all right. AHealthy Stomach Is a blessing for which thousands of our dyspeptic countrymen and women sigh in vain, and to obtain which . swallow muc.: medicine unavailingly. . For no ailment—probably—are there . so many-alleged remedies as fr dys-. pepsia. The man of humbug is con. stantly ulutted with the dollars and dimes of those who resort to one nostrum alter another in the vain hope of cbtuining relief, at least, from this vexatious and obstinate malady, Ex. rience indicates Hostetter’s Stomach . itters as a means of eradicating dyspsia, in which a firm reliance can placed. No remedy has in threa decades and over established guch a reputation, none has received such unqualified professional sanction. It isan admirable invigorant, because it enriches the blood, and not only thie, but it thoroughly regulates the . bowels, kidneys and bladder. The nervous symtoms are usually relieved by the medicine. For Piles, Constipation and derangy. ed Digestion, the Duplex Galvanic Belt is your hope. Consult Dr. Sherwood, National Hotel. a24tf % Washington Township items. Si Harroun has put up two wheels and a derrick in the river near Rocky . Bar, just above the town of Washington, and is now engaged in sinking to the bed of the stream for pay gravel. If the high water holds off a reasonable length of time he.will take out considerable gold as a reward for his industry. At Brandy Flat, a little ways belot the town, a four stamp mill is.crashing away on cement from the famous old lead there that has been worked off and on for thirty years or so, and yielded a ‘milion dollars more or less. The gravel there for a distance of half a mile‘in length and 200 or 300 feet in width has been percolated in past ages by water carrying much lime, and has become firmly cemented together. Sonie men haye nade fortunes in working that cement, but the last man that went atit (N. W. Knowlton) onan extensive scale, did not do.so till after the cream of the deposit had been taken out, and he sank quite a sum of money. The man who now -has a mill there is operating on a limited scale and seems to be doing well enough, Messrs. Foster & Grissell are grangers this time of the year. They. will continue as such till they have completed geting in their hay. Ina week or two, when that is done, they will go back to their first and dearest love, and resume operations on the Champion quartz mine, near the Eaglebird. The lumber is being hauled to.Ormonde for a new and very large hotel to be built by the Washington Mining Company. That town is the most altitudinous in the State that can-boast of a boom, unless Sierra City puts in a claim for the distinction. : pene Capable of Making Two Exhibits. The Grass Valley Union makes this sensible reply: to the San Francisco MininggAdvocate’s article in which the latter paper criticises the intention of Nevada county to make .exhibits both at the State and Mechanics’ Institute Fairs, and presupposes that it will be a frittering away of effort and money by dividing the exhibits: The Advocate is evidently not well informed as to how the county exhibits will be made. The exhibits at Sucramento will be horticultural and agricultural, and at’ San’ Francisco the same with the addition of a fine mineral collection. Sacramento. is not friendly to. the mining interests, therefore it has been determined that it would be better to send all the minerals to the San Fair, as a mineral exhibit would b» better appreciated there, as there do mostly congregate the men who are interest edin mining affairs, and who seek information respecting mines. The o.her exhibits of fruit, ete., will not be wanting in merit because the county will offer hke productions at Sacramento, and when the display is made the Advocate will have no cause to blush for Nevada county, Whether as a preducer of golden or, horticultural wealth.
