Any locality in the fruit belt of California can create a boom with a few thousand dollars expended in a judicious manner. It can advance its real estate, quadruple its land sales, and cause an influx of new settlers and create a building furore within a year from any given date, if it will substitute workina for a boom instead of waiting for one.

Leastwise they have not been heard from for several days. A respectable lady complains that she has recently been made the victim God-given faculties which by nature we all possess ?’’ Every home, however humble, or however magnificent, should be furnished with the means of giving intellectual culture as well as amusement, adapted to’the parent to bestow and the child to enjoy. The majority of parents furnish amusement for their little ones up to a certain period in the way of toys and juvenile books; but when they grow beyond these cliildish pleasures, and advance to the forma-, tive period jof their lives, parents being not less than eight feet at anyplace. Ata depth of 580 feet on the incline, there is a drift running over 300 feet tothe south. From this drift a winze was put down forty feet, and “the richest ore yet encountered in the mine was found.

W. B. Hayford was the only man who put in an appearance and the meeting was postponed.’” A county whose leading citizens show no more public interest and enthusiasm than that ought to stand aside and keep out of the way of progressive communities like Nevada county that are pulling themselves from the rut of old fogyism. A Star Route Change. A Washington (D.

To the fathers.and representative men of our communities do we look for the inflnence and means required to fit our boys for the honorable and intelligent fulfillment: of duties left to them, when parents and friends have passed away. * * * In this connection it inay be well to remember a suggestion of Mark Twain, “That if a father would have a son grow up in the right way, HE should occasionally take a walk in that direction.”? By these means -children learn to have an interest in the welfare of their parents, and the confidence thusi3pired makes the work one of mutual love, The frequency with which the entire responsibility of a family is thrown upon the mother will in a slight measure be apprec ated when I relate an incident which recently occurred in one of our Nevada county churches. Alter the sacrament of baptism, administered to a little child, in which both father and mother participated, a member of the chureh, also a mother, stepped forward and congratulated the man by saying that she was happy to know that at least a few children in the church had fathers. Besides the amusements furnished to the public in the way of theatres, panoramas, lectures, etc., which pro‘vide occasional pleasure and instruction, we ought to have a permanent resort where both old and young can spend their leisure hours both profitably and pleasantly. : I believe that a public library of standard works and best fiction, and reading room furnished with the leading papers and periodicals of the day, well lighted, well furnished, and _provided with some quiet amusements, would constitute such a place.In every community there are homeless young men and strangers who, after their day’s work is done, would gladly avail themselves of the entertertaining and FéfRirig influences of such an institution, rather than resort to the liquor saloons, whose doors alone in our small towns are thrown open for the amusement and diversion of such, and whose influences are all of a downward tendency. The Cow Case. Yesterday Judge Walling reversed the judgment of the Justice’s Court in the case of the People vs. Jerry Brown. The defendant was tried in Justice Wadsworth’s court on a charge of malicious mischief, before a jury. The accused is a young man -who lives a few miles from town with his mother who has a small clover patch. One day he found two of James Creagan’s cows in his mother’s field, and having an old shot gun handy he administered summary punishment on the cows by peppering them with bird shot, injuring the bag of one of the cows. The young man was arrested and found guilty by the jury, who recommended him to the mercy of the court. Although the jury felt kindly inclined towards him, Mr. Brown “kicked” against the verdict, and felt very sore over.it,. His-attorney,-T. 8. Ford, appealed the case to the Superior Court on points of law. Judge Walling held that the Justice should have gustained the defendant’s demurrer on account of a defective complaint. He reversed the judgment and ordered the case dismissed. sepsis —___ How He Got There. “The fact that Michael Haddock, who died at the county hospital this week, left an estate estimated to be worth from ten to twelve hundred dollars, has created considerable comment among tax-payers. Some blamed county physician and others the Supervisors of this district for having in the institution at the county’s expense an individual who was amply able to pay for his board and medical attendance. An investigation shows that Haddock was admitted to the hospital June 7th of this year by virtue of a permit issued to him by Supervisor Pridgeon. -It will probably be ascertained that Mr. Pridgeon was imposed upon in the matter of Haddock’s financial condition. ‘The Wanderers Return. Charles E. Kent, Watson Charles, David Matteson, Bert Dickerman and Barnum Power, who left this city about a fortnight ago on a hunting and fishing excursion to the moun tain lakes, returned Thursday evening, The young gentlemen had the pleasantest kind ofa trip.

As at a gambling table.a few men will do all the guessing as to which cards w.ll win, and the others try to follow these lucky fellows, so it-is in speculations in land—three-fourths of the buyers are purchasing on the brains and pluck of the other fourth. If any town, or city, or country. district wants to create a boom, there is, first of all, one thing to-ibe done—attention must be called to it by any means that lies in its power. As in advertising a business, it makes no’ difference what the plan is so long as it accomplishes the desired result. So in creating a boom—it does not matter what means are pursued, as long as the object is gained; in each case the point being to get every one to talking . 9 about you. In starting a boom, maps, pamphlets, circulars, meetings, dispatches, descriptive letters, samples of its fruit, fairs, newspaper articles, . }, subdivision of land, the bringing in of water, all combine to bring the locality before the public and get every one interested in the locality. al r a vy e 8 o I be) CC who wonder that one locality is progressing and another is not, that land isadvancing, that people are flocking that new enterprises are being all the time pushed forward.

Any locality in the fruit belt of California can create a boom with a few thousand dollars expended in a judicious manner.. It can advance its real estate, quadruple its land sales, and cause an influx of new settlers and create a building furore within a year from any given date, if it will substitute workina for a boom instead of waiting for one.

To the fathers.and representative men of our communities do we look for the inflnence and means required to fit our boys for the honorable and intelligent fulfillment: of duties left to them, when parents and friends have passed away. * * * In this connection it inay be well to remember a suggestion of Mark Twain, “That if a father would have a son grow up in the right way, HE should occasionally take a walk in that direction.”? By these means -children learn to have an interest in the welfare of their parents, and the confidence thusi3pired makes the work one of mutual love, The frequency with which the entire responsibility of a family is thrown upon the mother will in a slight measure be apprec ated when I relate an incident which recently occurred in one of our Nevada county churches. Alter the sacrament of baptism, administered to a little child, in which both father and mother participated, a member of the chureh, also a mother, stepped forward and congratulated the man by saying that she was happy to know that at least a few children in the church had fathers. Besides the amusements furnished to the public in the way of theatres, panoramas, lectures, etc., which pro‘vide occasional pleasure and instruction, we ought to have a permanent resort where both old and young can spend their leisure hours both profitably and pleasantly. : I believe that a public library of standard works and best fiction, and reading room furnished with the leading papers and periodicals of the day, well lighted, well furnished, and _provided with some quiet amusements, would constitute such a place.In every community there are homeless young men and strangers who, after their day’s work is done, would gladly avail themselves of the entertertaining and FéfRirig influences of such an institution, rather than resort to the liquor saloons, whose doors alone in our small towns are thrown open for the amusement and diversion of such, and whose influences are all of a downward tendency. The Cow Case. Yesterday Judge Walling reversed the judgment of the Justice’s Court in the case of the People vs. Jerry Brown. The defendant was tried in Justice Wadsworth’s court on a charge of malicious mischief, before a jury. The accused is a young man -who lives a few miles from town with his mother who has a small clover patch. One day he found two of James Creagan’s cows in his mother’s field, and having an old shot gun handy he administered summary punishment on the cows by peppering them with bird shot, injuring the bag of one of the cows. The young man was arrested and found guilty by the jury, who recommended him to the mercy of the court. Although the jury felt kindly inclined towards him, Mr. Brown “kicked” against the verdict, and felt very sore over.it,. His-attorney,-T. 8. Ford, appealed the case to the Superior Court on points of law. Judge Walling held that the Justice should have gustained the defendant’s demurrer on account of a defective complaint. He reversed the judgment and ordered the case dismissed. sepsis —___ How He Got There. “The fact that Michael Haddock, who died at the county hospital this week, left an estate estimated to be worth from ten to twelve hundred dollars, has created considerable comment among tax-payers. Some blamed county physician and others the Supervisors of this district for having in the institution at the county’s expense an individual who was amply able to pay for his board and medical attendance. An investigation shows that Haddock was admitted to the hospital June 7th of this year by virtue of a permit issued to him by Supervisor Pridgeon. -It will probably be ascertained that Mr. Pridgeon was imposed upon in the matter of Haddock’s financial condition. ‘The Wanderers Return.

If any town, or city, or country. district wants to create a boom, there is, first of all, one thing to-ibe done—attention must be called to it by any means that lies in its power. As in advertising a business, it makes no’ difference what the plan is so long as it accomplishes the desired result. So in creating a boom—it does not matter what means are pursued, as long as the object is gained; in each case the point being to get every one to talking . 9 about you. In starting a boom, maps, pamphlets, circulars, meetings, dispatches, descriptive letters, samples of its fruit, fairs, newspaper articles, . }, subdivision of land, the bringing in of water, all combine to bring the locality before the public and get every one interested in the locality. al r a vy e 8 o I be) CC who wonder that one locality is progressing and another is not, that land isadvancing, that people are flocking that new enterprises are being all the time pushed forward.
