GENTLEMEN: Yours of the 22d instant contains intelligence regarding the character of your display that is very gratifying to us. Your space is 52 feet long and 8'% feet. wide, with wall space behind “or-the entire distance. Thus you have 52 feet and twice 814 feet of wall space, although in one of the 814 stretches a window exists. I presume you want a21¢ feet counter for 52 feet, and a series of ascending shelf-room for a certain hight on the wall behind. Regarding your mineral display, will not some mine in Nevada county ship at its own expense a car load, say 10 tons, of free milling ore to be crushed in the Pavilion? Messrs. F. A. Huntington & Co. and the Messrs. Hendy of the Triumph concentrator,between them, will have acomplete reducing plant in operation, and will make due return of the product of the ore furnished. They could reduce 20 tons, if the ore was furnished, during. such times as the machinery is to be in motion. Your obedient servant; Wm. P.

In the churches of San Jose, Oakland, Woodland“and all other towns where the boom boometh, the good people will this morning raise their tuneful voices in the following. If anybody desires to hear how it sounds at a higher altitude, drop into any Nevada City or Grass Valley some Sunday along late this Fall: * Tell me notin mournful numbers That the boom’s an empty dream, For the speculator slumbers If things are not what they seem. If we have to beg or borrow, Though we never hope to pay, Let us buy, that each to-morrow Find us richer than to-day.

Maslin of Placer county, was drowned at Cisco Friday night. The funeral will take place tomorrow at Sacramento. The many Nevada county friends of Mr. Maslin and family will . be pained to learn of this bereavement. Maud Maslin was an only daughter, aged about eighteen years. She was a bright and highly esteemed young . lady and a loving daughter. —2--@oo It ls Coming All the Same. Commenting upon the fact that the boom has struck not~only San Jose, . but Oakland, Los Gatos, Livermore, Gilroy and Woodland, the Placer Republican observes: ‘‘All of these towns, without exception, have been engaged during tlie past two or three years in making striking town im-! provements, and they are now reaping the reward. There is not a man in our foothill towns _who does not know that the soil up through this country is.as productive as that of . Santa Clara, Alameda, or Yolo, and that our climate is preferatle to theirs, but somehow we are doing very little to bring the boom here.” county is“‘getting a move on’’ in the} matter of letting: her attractions become known, and in a few months more she will be thoroughly awake. She’has been a little slow in scoring, as they say at the races, but she will get—there—all--t+e-same.-—In-the-language of the Transcript’s inspired: Los Angeles started long ago, San Jose is now inthe game; Nevada coun'y’s a little slow, But she'll get there just the same. sii aria end Another Version. The Marysville Democrat—of Thursday evening gives the following account of J. Ricca’s troubles at Bloomfield : ‘A gentleman who returned from North Bloomfield this morning told our reporter a tale which shows how frail women are. A gentleman sent his wife and child to North Bloomfield for change of air. They had been absent some weeks when word was brought to him that his lady fair had been running around with fast young men. He set out to bring her home on Wednesday and found her in company with another man at-early morning. He demanded his child,.and asked her to return home, which she refused. She called for help and three men set on the husband and badly ‘beat him. They were arrested and when the case was tried yesterday, the wife swore that the husband was to blame and the case was dismissed.”’ —teeuemen A Microscopical Matter. The North San Juan Times is .hereby respectfully.informed that the item headed “‘A Thrilling Ride” originated with the Transcript, having been set up without copy by one of the printers during the editor’s absence. It was published as given to the ‘‘sub’’ editor. It proved, however, to be amass of inaccuracies, but was nevertheless good enough for the Marysville Democrat and numerous other sheets to steal. Thisis a small matter, and not worth the ink and space devoted to the explanation. It is referred to not because the TRANSCRIPT Cares a cuntinental whether other papers borrow items from it without credit or not, but simply because the massive intellect of the Times is in danger of being seriously disturbed unless the mighty problem of who stole the article is settled. 2-9 @ ee . A Blind Lady's Letter. Rev. Wm. Angwin of this city has received from Miss Alice Holmes, of Jersey City, a letter which is a curiosity in its way. Miss Holmes, who is nearly seventy years of age and has been blind since she was nine years old, formerly resided at Downieville, and isa sister of Wm. Holmes of the firm of Spaulding, Mowry & Co. The letter is ‘‘written” with a pin by which Roman capitals are pricked from the reverse side of the paper, thus making raised letters which can be read by blind people as well as by those who have their sight. An Excellent Picture. H. Steinegger, of San Francisco, has the Transcript’s thanks for an admirable lithographic: sketch by himself showing the Providence, Merrifield and Champion works.

HE WAS GREATLY M.S(AKEN, A Maryland Chemist Keckoned Without His tiost. I live in the midst of the malarial districts of Maryland, near the city of Washington, and am exposed to all the dangerous influences of the impure air and. water of that region. = Being naturally of a strong constitution, I had frequently boasted that no chills and fever or other malarious complaint would ever trouble me. This was my experience and the-con. dition in which. I found myself six I first noticed that I did not feel so sprightly and vigorous as I felt tired and Soon I noticed a distinct months ago: more than usually violent. Then a stretchy feeling. with profuse gaping Then my head, always Clear as a bell, would feel heavy and I began to have headaches. The cold stage was marked with chattering of the teeth, severe rigors passed . Over me, and no amount of clothing could keep” me warm. .The chill was succeeded in turn by the fever, in which I seemed to be burning up, the congestion in my head produced a.violent pain in the frontal portion and a heated sensation of the eyelids, with an indescribable aching of the lower limbs. Nausea and vomiting occurred with severe retchings, and when the paroxysms passed off I was thoroughly prostrated by a weakness that was felt in every part of me. I drugged myself with quinine, and obtained some. relief. But my respite was of brief duration. ~I was now so muchreduced thar T could hardly walk or stand upright. My disease soon culminated in a continued malarial fe ver which kept me.closely confined for about a week. I became exceedingly depressed and: melancholy, so much so that I lost interest in my work, and, indeed, scarcely cared what happened to me. During all this time, it must be un derstood that I-did not neglect medical treatment. All the most powerful remedies were tried, such as liquid arsenate’ of potash, valeriante of iron, mercury, bromide of potassium, chlo ride.of bismuth, chinoidine, chinchoni All this I did-under-the-advice of eminent physicians. ; It was while I was in this deplorable condition that the claims made for Kaskine, the new quinine, as ‘a specific for malaria, were first brought to my attention. I knew nothing of its'value to justify my having any confidence in it, but as everything else had failed I deemed it my duty to try it, so I began its use, and its prompt and radical effects were of the nature of arevelation tome. Many people may think the statement scarcely credible, but it is a fact that after only a few days' use of Kaskine all the leading symptoms in my case were decidedly abated or ceased altogether; and ina few weeks dia, quinine and several others. from the time I took the first dose I was cured, This was about the first of January, and since then I have-experienced no recurrence of the malarial symptoms ‘in any form. A remedy of such exceptional virtue for the cure of malaria ought to be commended and universally made known. I have therefore urged it upon the attention of my friends, severa: of whom have used it with™ke good results in every case, and it is with the greatest pleasure and sincerity that I commend Kaskine to sufferers from malaria everywhere.

Your space is 52 feet long and 8'% feet. wide, with wall space behind “or-the entire distance. Thus you have 52 feet and twice 814 feet of wall space, although in one of the 814 stretches a window exists. I presume you want a21¢ feet counter for 52 feet, and a series of ascending shelf-room for a certain hight on the wall behind.

Commenting upon the fact that the boom has struck not~only San Jose, . but Oakland, Los Gatos, Livermore, Gilroy and Woodland, the Placer Republican observes: ‘‘All of these towns, without exception, have been engaged during tlie past two or three years in making striking town im-! provements, and they are now reaping the reward. There is not a man in our foothill towns _who does not know that the soil up through this country is.as productive as that of . Santa Clara, Alameda, or Yolo, and that our climate is preferatle to theirs, but somehow we are doing very little to bring the boom here.” county is“‘getting a move on’’ in the} matter of letting: her attractions become known, and in a few months more she will be thoroughly awake.

The Marysville Democrat—of Thursday evening gives the following account of J. Ricca’s troubles at Bloomfield : ‘A gentleman who returned from North Bloomfield this morning told our reporter a tale which shows how frail women are. A gentleman sent his wife and child to North Bloomfield for change of air. They had been absent some weeks when word was brought to him that his lady fair had been running around with fast young men. He set out to bring her home on Wednesday and found her in company with another man at-early morning. He demanded his child,.and asked her to return home, which she refused. She called for help and three men set on the husband and badly ‘beat him. They were arrested and when the case was tried yesterday, the wife swore that the husband was to blame and the case was dismissed.”’ —teeuemen A Microscopical Matter. The North San Juan Times is .hereby respectfully.informed that the item headed “‘A Thrilling Ride” originated with the Transcript, having been set up without copy by one of the printers during the editor’s absence. It was published as given to the ‘‘sub’’ editor. It proved, however, to be amass of inaccuracies, but was nevertheless good enough for the Marysville Democrat and numerous other sheets to steal. Thisis a small matter, and not worth the ink and space devoted to the explanation. It is referred to not because the TRANSCRIPT Cares a cuntinental whether other papers borrow items from it without credit or not, but simply because the massive intellect of the Times is in danger of being seriously disturbed unless the mighty problem of who stole the article is settled.

Miss Holmes, who is nearly seventy years of age and has been blind since she was nine years old, formerly resided at Downieville, and isa sister of Wm. Holmes of the firm of Spaulding, Mowry & Co. The letter is ‘‘written” with a pin by which Roman capitals are pricked from the reverse side of the paper, thus making raised letters which can be read by blind people as well as by those who have their sight.

HE WAS GREATLY M.S(AKEN, A Maryland Chemist Keckoned Without His tiost. I live in the midst of the malarial districts of Maryland, near the city of Washington, and am exposed to all the dangerous influences of the impure air and. water of that region. = Being naturally of a strong constitution, I had frequently boasted that no chills and fever or other malarious complaint would ever trouble me. This was my experience and the-con. dition in which. I found myself six I first noticed that I did not feel so sprightly and vigorous as I felt tired and Soon I noticed a distinct months ago: more than usually violent. Then a stretchy feeling. with profuse gaping Then my head, always Clear as a bell, would feel heavy and I began to have headaches. The cold stage was marked with chattering of the teeth, severe rigors passed . Over me, and no amount of clothing could keep” me warm. .The chill was succeeded in turn by the fever, in which I seemed to be burning up, the congestion in my head produced a.violent pain in the frontal portion and a heated sensation of the eyelids, with an indescribable aching of the lower limbs. Nausea and vomiting occurred with severe retchings, and when the paroxysms passed off I was thoroughly prostrated by a weakness that was felt in every part of me. I drugged myself with quinine, and obtained some. relief. But my respite was of brief duration. ~I was now so muchreduced thar T could hardly walk or stand upright. My disease soon culminated in a continued malarial fe ver which kept me.closely confined for about a week. I became exceedingly depressed and: melancholy, so much so that I lost interest in my work, and, indeed, scarcely cared what happened to me. During all this time, it must be un derstood that I-did not neglect medical treatment. All the most powerful remedies were tried, such as liquid arsenate’ of potash, valeriante of iron, mercury, bromide of potassium, chlo ride.of bismuth, chinoidine, chinchoni All this I did-under-the-advice of eminent physicians. ; It was while I was in this deplorable condition that the claims made for Kaskine, the new quinine, as ‘a specific for malaria, were first brought to my attention. I knew nothing of its'value to justify my having any confidence in it, but as everything else had failed I deemed it my duty to try it, so I began its use, and its prompt and radical effects were of the nature of arevelation tome. Many people may think the statement scarcely credible, but it is a fact that after only a few days' use of Kaskine all the leading symptoms in my case were decidedly abated or ceased altogether; and ina few weeks dia, quinine and several others. from the time I took the first dose I was cured, This was about the first of January, and since then I have-experienced no recurrence of the malarial symptoms ‘in any form. A remedy of such exceptional virtue for the cure of malaria ought to be commended and universally made known. I have therefore urged it upon the attention of my friends, severa: of whom have used it with™ke good results in every case, and it is with the greatest pleasure and sincerity that I commend Kaskine to sufferers from malaria everywhere.
