A number of the Salvationists who have been conducting the campaign at this city for the past week went out to the Hirschman reservoir Tuesday to take afree bath. Some of them were good swimmers, but ‘‘Joe the Turk’’ was not of that number. H® grew venturesome however, and tried to show off. The first thing he knew he wasina hole where the water came up to his eyes. He hecame alarmed and began floundering. One of the swimmers noticed his predicament and pulled him out justin time to save him from drowning. 2-8 ——— Democratic Plans. It is stated that whereas the Democracy is in-a minority in this county, that party will act on the defensive during the campaign, taking advantage of the mistakes made by the other side, it there are any, and reckoning on making up for lost time when the home stretch is reached. The Central Committee will probably meet within the next fortnight, and members of the committee_who have been inter= viewed seem to think the nominating convention: will be called for the early part of September. A Fine Colt. J. W. Robinson of this city is the possessor of one of the most promising fourteen : stallions on the coast. ’ and Hambletonian stock, its dam being Con. Grissell’s *‘Rose” and its sire the famous ‘“‘Pasha.”’ It is a natural trotter and its make-up indicates that it will develop phenomenal speed. Mr. Robinson has christened the youngster “Jay W,”. and he expects that within the next two or three years it will do great credit to the name. A Mammoth Stock. _ The attention of the people of Neyad and Sierra counties is culled to yp, rmonths-old Pegs hestate, —* ‘THAT RAILROAD. ed Marysville and Wheatland Wrangling \ Over the Right of Way. \ The Wheatland and Mary :villé’ papers are getting quite excited over the talk about the proposed railroad to Nevada City. What a blessing it would be for the people of this section if each of thém should start in and build an independent line of its own. That is really the only way to settle the controversy. The last issue of the Four Corners thus expr:-ssed itself on the subject : “The Appeal endorses our remarks on the desirability of a railroad from Nevada City. She also very adroitly pushes Marysville to the front as a ‘better objective point than Wheatland or Nicolaus.’ This may be frue. Marysville may be a good objective point, but we were looking at the scope of country to be benefited. Marysville would be benefited by the terminal trade merely. There would be no added facilities for marketing produce except to the country in the immediate vicinity of Smartsville. Marysville already has water communication and does not seem to profit the shipping very much. The amount of land feeding the railroad from Marysville to Nevada City would not compare with the land along the route . proposed by us. We would be pleased to see our county seat have a railroad to Nevada City. And if it might be deemed tecessary we would even be willing to move the Four Corners up there with all its office paraphernalia to help to advocate the scheme. But, in our mind, there can be ro question but that the route we propose will be more profitable. The advantages we look at are: “‘First—A road from Nevada City to Nicolaus would open up twice the number of acres of undeveloped land that. one would by the Marysville route. ““Second—Marysville and Sutter county would not te benefited except by the increasei amount of traffic, whereas, by our route, Nevada City, Grass Valley, Rough and Ready, Indian Springs, Smartsville, Spenceville and Wheatland would have their freight rates reduced at least one-half. “Third—The country around Marysville bas‘already all the advantage of water communication while the towns named above have not. “Fourth—The route by: Wheatland would be the most direct line to take in all the points named. “Fifth—The proposed route would tgothrough the best land in Yuba_and Sutter counties, They are at the same time held at low figures. The increase in value would be relatively much greater. ‘*Sixth—Wheatland is the nearest shipping point on the Oregon Branch Road forall the towns na:ned. ; 3 00* ™ a ville and Spenceson Pp.

One Truckeeite’s term in the county jail expired Tnesday morning, leaving the Hotel de Lord for a few hours without a guest from the eastern part of the county. A few hours later, however, Constable Chapman arrived from Truckee with one Joe Lewis who is to serve sixty day fora battery committed on a woman. The county. jail would not seem like the couaty jail without a prisoner from Truckee in it. Gone to Grass Valley.

About eighteen Nevada City Good Templars went down to Grass Valley in private conveyances Tuesday evening to visit Sylvania Lodge at that place. It was a complete surprise to the Grass Valley lodge, which was totally unprepared to receive the visitors, but they were received with that inimitable hospitality which plainly showed that they were more than welcome. After the business of the meeting had been dispensed with, the doors were thrown open and numerous outsiders who had been invited were allowed to come in. The installation of officers for the ensting term was then proceeded with, the work being . most admirably conducted by Grand Chief Templar Walling, assisteé by Milton Houswell and Lila Faull as Marshals. This was followed by an interesting program which was rendered in a pleasing style by the Grass Valleyans. Refreshments were then served and were hugely relished by the hungry onea assembled. The merriment kept up until a late hour when the Nevada City delegation departed for their homes. The Nevada Good Templars are lou in their praise of the treatment they received from their sister lodge and declare they will reciprocate their kindly feeling in the near future by equalling if not excelling the efforts put forth Tuesday Levening to entertain.

It is to be hoped that ere another year rolls round, our observer will have developed into something more important, even should he be guilty of “hilarity” in the attempt, for observers are numerous, and those of his quality undesirable in a community. For the benefit of those who inay be tempted to peruse ‘‘Observer’s” ‘‘Picnic Notes,’”’ we suggest that he pass a few evenings with his district schoolma’am in order that his rhetorical de. ficiencies may in some manner be remedied, From topic 1, we can apprehend why ‘Observer’? was ‘Observer ;” having we are sure, quite recently emigrated ‘from some unknown clime where the title of ‘‘Mr.” ne’er ‘is sounded on human ear. Again, in topic 2, we find ‘Observer” too “hilarious” to accommodate himself tothe necessary requirements of common refinement. In topic 3 he apparenily has a superfluous number of ‘“‘hers’’ at his disIn topice/4 he refers toa “hilarious” delegation from one of the neighboring villages. Our comprehension of the term evidently does not coincide with “‘Observer’s,’’ but should he consult Webster it might, and he probably would not aga:n apply the term to a class of people whose theory and practice of morals and manners must be decidedly superior to his. Topics 5 and 6once more imprese us with “Observer’s’’ knowledge of etiquette, and hence we kindly refer him to Mrs. Duffy’s treatise on ‘‘Social Life.”” He may possibly glean from it much useful information which may be of assistance in his future composition of ‘Picnic Notes.”’” Do we usually ‘‘praise’”’ before appreciating? Our “Observer’’ tries to convince us we did at that ‘‘supper gotten up by Buck.” (I wonder who got it’ down! Observer? “Observers” generally have a “FEighth—The proposed road, would vacuum somwhere about the face for such purposes.) Should gur ‘‘Bosstony’ observer devote as much time preparing his ‘Picnic Notas’’ as did our worthy President in curling his mustache, Nevada county might yet boast of a Dickens. Trusting that we shall some time meet our critical friend in the ranks of retired literary individuals who have entirely discarded hilarity in every form, We remain, *~* PricnIckers. A Nevada County Land Case. i The Record-Union of Tues lay says: Inthe caseof Snelser vs. Tomlinson, involving certain lands near Donner Lake, an important decison was yesterday received at the Sacramento Land Office. Some years ago, in the case of Morrow vs. Clough, the Commissioner ruled that land that was uninhabitable during the winter months by reason of the severity of the climate and the depth of snow, ‘‘is not subject to entry under any law requiring continuous residence.”” The tendency of this decision was practically to withdraw from the operation of the act allowing agricultural entry based upon residence, improvement and cultivation, an extensive belt of country approaching on both slopes the summits of the Sierras, and of the other mountain ranges traversing Government lands yet unsold. In his decision, the Secretary holds that the nomestead entry of Tomlinson should remuin_intact, and ‘‘that the inclemency of the climate during the winter makes the land uninhabitable dying that season is not a valid objection to the acquisition of the same by a settler under the homestead or preemption laws.” This decision will presumably be conclusive of many cases now pending en appeal from the several land offices within the limits of the Sierras, and many. of which are before the Sacramento Land Office. It is of great importance to those seeking homes in the high’ portions of the eastern coynties of Californis. . A Circus Comes to Grief, Says the Reno Gazette of Monday evening: The elephant and the camel of the defunct ‘'4-Paws” circus which came to grief in Carson, passed through to San Francisco yesterday, thew owner, having succeeded in proving to the attachors that they were his property. The wagons, etc. were purchased by a Lake Tahoe botelman and John Sweeny got as his share of the spoils the cunning and mischievous baboon, which the envious say bears a. strong resemblance to a well-known Carson editor. The only thing left the unfortunate managers is the tent and a few animals, but they will, nevertheless, continue to advertise “the greatest show on earth.” —_—— Tae remedy which most successfully combats malarial disorders,is Ayer’s Ague Cure, Itisa Spee E wsaey Warrauted to cure chilis ed eames Wanted. yard at Nevada City.

An Ignorant Correspondent’s Misrepresentations Objected to. — Some blooming pessimist signing himself W. A.

This has hydraulic mining, and later on by. the cessation of most of the quartz mining. Here are to be found some ofthe most elegant little homes in the State, all of which are destined to become desolated and forsaken unless some method can be devised, or some modification of the debris question arrived at, in the near future.

Suspected of the Kneebone Murder. dell, of Wheatland, arrested Wm. of State prison, came to Wheatland and secured employment with C. K. Dam as a goose herder. Mr. Dam gave him a fine breech-loading shotgun for his use. In afew days, however, Smith failed to return and kept the shotgun. The case was reported to officer Waddel who hunted Smith’s record up, but the calprit managed to disappear. Waddell, however, dia not give up the search, but worked on verance was finally rewarded and getting trace of Smith he went to Penryn and arrested him. He pleaded guilty to petty larceny and was sentenced to the county jail for 60 days. At one time Smith was suspected by Wells, Fargo’s officers of robbing a stage, for which a saloon keeper of Sucramento is now serving a term in the State prison. [t is supposed yet that he was connected with the robbery. Officer Waddel has evidence—-which justifies him ia believing that Smith was connected with the Kneebone tragedy, and will probably enter a charge of murd :r against him in a few days. Bad Men From Yuba County. The Oakland Tribune of Monday evening says: : “The Nevada City papers are greatly grieved over our remarks concerning recent crimes of violence in that neighborhood, and jump on us with the statement that the Pratt murder occurred in Sierra county and not in Nevads. The Transcrirt further pleads that the Kneebone murder was done by a Yuba county man, but it does not appear how this was ascertained, as the murderer is still at large and undetected. It admits with sorrow the dynamite outrages, and as regards the other crimes of which it gave a list it alleges that they were done by bad Yuba county men who are in the habit of crossing the line when they have any wickedness in hand. Nevada county is certainly unfortunate in having to sufferfor the sins of its wicked neighbors.” As the Tribune will observe by reference to an item in another column, the I'nansonirt was not mistaken when it hinted that young Kneebone was murdered by a Yuba county man. Nevada county has had to stand enough from Yuba county without being compelled to be responsible for her outlawry. : Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.

Why it is for Sale—An Example for Young Men to Follow. oo The offer made by Myron Foote to sell the East Banner quartz claim of this district affordsa splendid opporPress as follows concerning Nevada. tunity for some enterprising man with a limited capital to make a mining investment that is more than ordinarily likely to prove remunerative. Mr. Foote and his son, Myron G.,—the latter being chief engineer of the Ontario been caused, first, by the stoppage of. and Daly mines ahd mills at Park City, Utah,--had completed their arrangements for’erecting machinery on the property this summer and proceeding with its development. Last Spring . the son was killed by a runaway horee. The elder Mr. Foote lacks the money required for the proper working of the claim, and has concluded to dispose of it even if he has to do so at somewhat of a sacrifice. : . The Salt Lake Tribune paid a magjnificent tribute to the ‘younger Mr. the mining interests up here, on ac-. Foote when he was killed. It said: “For less than he was, men have in tance fron; markets.

He was a pioneer, having come to this Coast in 1848. _He and journeyed by way of New Mexico and Arizona. He first started a bankinghouse in Marysville, and later in Downieville, and he became the principal owner of some of the most _profitable mines, among them. being the Sierra Buttes which was purchased by an English syndicate. In 1860 he removed to San Francisco, His estate is estimated to be worth fully $600,000. He leaves one son, John O.

I told him I had taken Hood’s Sarsaparilla, knew what it was, was satisfied with it, and did not want any other. When I began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilia I was feeling real miserable with dyspepsia, and so weak that at times I could hardly Hood’s stand, I looked like a person in consumption.
