SUNDAY, DEO. 11, 1887. "HERE AND THERE. M. H. Grant has been appointed postmaster at Forest City. . ~ The funeral of the late M. Byrne of Grass_Valey took place yesterday afternoon. ; John T. Shurtleff will preach at Trinity Episcopal Church this morning on “Christ in Judgment.’ It is said that, the Mabel drift mine at North Bloomfield is about worked out, only a few men being employed. The decoration committee fdr the leap year party will meet tomorrow evening at Miss Ida Maltman’s residence. er District Attorney Long yesterday filed an information charging Edwin Bootn and Charles Bergendale with robbing George Wetherby at Boca. Undertaker Groves, who has a monopoly of burying the few people whe die in this glorious climate, has received a new twelve hundred dollar hearse. Miss Florence Byrne.of Grass Valley was yesterday granted special letters.of administration on the estate of her father, M. Byrne, deceased. Her bond was fixed at $1,000. : Messrs. Tompkins & Tompkins by their attorney, W. P. Sowden, have begun suit in the Superior Court against I. L.Bowman to recover $371.93 alleged to be due for merchandise. A Nevada City young man has received seventeen invitations to the leap year party, and he feels so proud over it he will scarcely notice his former chums when he meets them. There will be services at the Congregational Church today, morning and evening. Subject of lecture in the evéning, ‘‘Poor Men Who Have Been Successful.” All are cordially invited, Thomas Cloke, of Grass Valley, has petitioned the Superior Court for letters of guardianship of the persons and estates of his grandchildren, John P. Hickey, Jr., and Louis T. F. Hickey. The application will be heard next Monday. : Olympic Lodge, Knights of Pythias, of Gras’ Valley, will have a public installation on Thurgday evening, January 5th. The members of = Milo Lodge and Mountain Division at this city have been invited to attend, and will do so. ‘ i A young lady who dances well and is pleasant company generally speaking, has authorized the TRANscRIPT editor to hunt up and engage for her a gentleman whom she can take to the leap year party. Candidates for the appointment should send their names and references to this office. I. L. Bowman of this city, a teamster, who, has been -working at the Voss sawmill, has applied to the Superior Court to be declared an insolvent. His assets consist. of $250 worth of property exempt from execution, $490 worth not exempt, and a homestead valued at $1,000 with a $200 mortgage on it. His liabilities amount to $1082.52. ‘S A Pathfinder for Booms. Speaking of the TRanscript’s announcement that a young man from the East had arrived at Chicago Park to start a newspaper, and upon getting there learned to his surprise that building would not begin in the Colony till néxt Spring,’the Marysville Appeal obServes: ‘‘The newspaper is one of the first institutions found in new colonies in Southern California, and the case of this Chicago young man is not so exceptional as might be supposed. If ’ the promoters of the colony are enterprising, they will make it an object for him to immediately begin the publication of his paper at Colfax, and do all the booming that he can for Chicdgo Park this winter. The newspaper is the chief factor in attracting population to many new -town-sites in the southern part of the State.’ Good Prospects Ahead, Superintendent Richards says that at the time he was compelled to shut down the machinery and quit work at the Centenial drift mine on account of the cold ‘weather shutting off the water supply, the drift on the 400 foot level had’ just entered a deposit of fine looking gravel, the value of which could not be ascertained by reason of the pump having to stop. Work had progressed uninterruptedly through the season, and had not this severe obstructtive weather set in at least six weeks earlier than usual a valuable productive mine would have been developed. Work will, however, be actively resumed at as early a date as possible, and under better auspices thanever. . A Two Deer Before Breakfast. Yesterday morning’before breakfast Tom McLeod shot“two deer within a quarter of a mile “of his father’s ranch this side of Quaker Hill.

Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said— “Let’s go a fishin’ ?” Of the many attractions to be offered at Trinity Society’s, Bazar this week none deserves greater mention than the fish pond and its special and peculiar adjuncts. It will be a place where the juvenile can get more than their money’s worth in useful and valuable articles, and the adult will get 100 per cent’infun or goods, No human being can expect to make @ mark in this world till he knows how to fish. Our most distinguished men and women have cast the line, and not a few of: them continue the pleasure till they can’t see the cork bobband and are obliged to use the hand line to feel the bite. Daniel Webster, one of America’s boss fisherman, would turn a client away or close his office any day to ‘go afishin’.”? President Cleveland keeps up the custom and leaves his home and bride to hook the finny tribe. _ St. Peter, the most renowned fishermen on record, holds the keys to heaven, and if we expect to enter that good place we must patronize, the Trinity fish pond. ’ Noone will regret the expenditure of small coin in angling for thegood things in store for them. The ladies have prepared and placed in vials a recipe to cure love. Just think of it—a recipe of that character. to be obtained for a dime! Annexed to the pond there-will bea booth where people. can: select partners for the leap year ball. It’s a well.known fact that certain wives, husbands, ‘‘fellers” and girls are going to get left unless some plan is devised to help them out. Everybody wants to go. No one wants to get left. In view of this’unfortunate state of affairs the ladies have arranged this booth on the matrimonial bureau plan. Here a wife whose husband is going with another girl can put in her application, whereupon a lot of photos of lonesome gents will be shown and she can signify her choice by writing on the back of the card the word, “‘Accepted,’”’ and signing her name: This same rule will apply to husbands whose wives are going with a handsomer man. There are wives in distress about “‘hubby’’ getting left. These wives are-aching to go but dare not ask @ friend till the ‘old man” gets a partner, and they are scared almost to death lest they in tarrying get left too. No woman would be so foolish as to take her husband or brother, knowing they would thus be the laughing stock of the ball room. To all those in the above stated dilemma, the “leap year bureau’’ will be an inestible boon. Young girls too bashful’to ask a man, and there are many such, can put upa short bit (three for a quarter) ,get a partner,and no questions and treat themselves to oysters or ice cream after the dance will stand an equal show at this Christian boottr where the motto reads ‘‘Good will to all; malice toward none.’”? None but good dancers and persons of unblem-. ished character will be on sale. San Juan Times ltems. The clean-up at the Delhi last month, for fifteen-days’ ran—from the Ist to the 15th, . inclusive—realized $7,500 and a fraction, only . eight stamps running. George W. Powell and Frank Morris own a quartz mine situated at or near the junction of the Middle and North Yuta rivers which, if all reports are true, is of fabulous richness in precious metals. : The General Grant mill still ‘remains idle. The cause for it is to be found in the fact that the contractor who agreed to furnish wire rope and cars torunin the upper ‘tunnel has until this week failed to send the same along. We learn that the owners of. the narrow gauge road from Nevada City to Colfax propose to build a narrow gauge, or a continuance of the said road, from Nevada City to'this place,; in consideration that the’people of the ridge will donate to”them them the sum of $50,000, to bé paid in monthly installments of tén per cent each.

Professor Hilgard on Their Culture in Up’ per California, Speaking of the possibilities of Northern California for the-raising of citrus plants, a late report by Professor Hilgard says that as far ‘nortli as Shasta such fruit may be profitably grown, and that the products can be placed upon the markets several weeks sooner than those from the southern part of the State. ‘That ungrafted trees,’’ says the report ‘‘planted for ornament and as curiosities rather than with any serious expectations of fruit, should have furnished a large proportion of the latter with low sugar contents and high acids, in semblance of the wild stock, was to be expected, and proves nothing as to what careful selection and culture may accomplish, while the cases in which really good fruit was shown are irrefragable proof of the possibilities in the premises.” Continuing inthe same strain the Professor says: ‘‘The growers of citrus plants in Northern California must determine for themselves what varieties come to perfection in their climate, and a priori, should perhaps distrust somewhat those that ‘acquire great perfection in a climate like that of Riverside, so_ different. from theirs. So far as analysis can determine a point, the best showing in the table is made by the seedling fruits and unnamed varieties, the maximum sugar with the lowest acid being reported from Portersville, Tulare . county. Next to those are the Mediterranean Sweet from Lakeport and the large St. Mickales from Oroville—a locality sugar in three eut of four cases. Looking over the column of acid percent-ages in oranges, there is no reason to fear comparison with Southern California at large, the average for the seventeen determinations here recorded being 1.10, almost the indentical figures obtained’ in averaging the data from the South. In lemons the acid average is rather low, although in one case the goal of 7 per cent. is nearly reached.’ It is recommended that the refuse and surplus citrus fruit be utilized for the production of essential oils, and. that although the profits may not seem large, the day of instantaneous fortune has gone by: The olive is said to fiourish through nearly the entire State. It will grow in soil too dry for the grape and too rocky for a fruit tree. “It is perhaps not as a great and valuable. product for export that the importance attaches to the cultivation of this growth, but rather as a food for home consumption.’ In concluding, the report says: ‘It is argued by many people that the olive requires an excessively long time to come into bearing. In favorable localities this is by no means the case. In the southern part of the State large olive cuttings commence to bear the fourth year. Mr. Cooper of Santa Barbara, reports two gallons of berries on some of his best trees at that age, and*as much as thirty gallons from the best at six years. * * * # # wiere the summer temperature is very low, must be termed very encouraging. Two small trees but a few feet high, brought from the Mission at San Jose, were planted in 1873, by Mra. Jeanne Carr. For two years after Mrs. Carr’s departure they were neglected, but answered very quickly to kind treatment, and after six years from planting produced some fruit, and have produced full crops every year, steadily increasing.” The yield at eight years old was about fifty pounds; at ten years over a hundred pounds per tree, while this year each tree averaged 235 pounds. In the off years the yield has been about onequarter as much. Compared with warmer localities, where the Mission olive ripens earlier, the yield perhaps Jooks.small, but with varieties better adapted to our cold climate the result would doubtless be different. As olives are worth 4 cents a pound the profit would be good.” A Triple Alliance. Unhappily for the wretched victim of their assaults, dyspepsia, con stipation and biliousness are faithful allies. When one of these foes attack the system, the otber two speedily follow in its wake, and successively make their onslaught successively, but not: successfully if Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters be used to repel the onset. The Bitters as easily extirpates these monsters as: St. George is depicted in the act of doing to the dragon in the steel vignette upon the glass bottles which contain the medicine. Their flight, like their advance, is nearly simultaneous, Their mutuality destroyed, they precipitatély retreat, se aoe health master of the position an strongly intrenched by the Bitters.

Sheriff Lord, who .went to Quaker Hill Friday afternoon to investigate as to whether there was any good foundation for the suspicion that Thorn alias Dorsey was. roaming around in that locality, was not at all surprised to learn that another man had been mistaken ‘for the highwayman. The party-met in the forenoon by the Dutch Flat stage driver and who afterwards had a talk with J. E. Leopold was William Bryant, a resident of the neighborhood of You Bet. Bryant was on September 28th admitted to the county hospital to be treated for delirium tremens, and being discharged the other day started back to his former home. His appearance differed considerably from Thorn’s. A Regretted Resignation. The Real Estate Reporter, published weekly at Los Angeles, has the following to say of a young gentleman who but a few months since went from this city to Southern California : “‘We are pained to record this week the retirement of Mr. O. E. Mason from the editorial staff of the Real Estate Reporter. Mr. Mason is an able master of his profession—that of Law—and his assistance to us has been extended more as accommodation, than asa desire to exchange the law, for journalism. Such has ‘been his success with us, however, that we hope that so able a pen may not remain idle, no matter how pressing his legal practice may become. — Time consumed at editorial work has so encroached upon his office business that resignation from active duty he has deemed advissble. It is certain that should Mr. Mason have been moved by mercenary motives, he would long since have left us, for sad to relate editors receive much less than lawyers. With a rapidly accumulating practice we see a bright future in store for Mr. Mason. As a criminal lawyer he has few if any equals among the younger of the profession. In his career with the Reporter we note two strong elements which ought to bring about eminent success—honesty of purpose and indefatigable industry.” An enthusiastic materialist put a headstone over the grave of his wife in a cemetery at Nievre, France, upon which there is the following inscription: ‘‘Deprived of all vitality, here lie the remains of the material that formed Madame Durand. No cards and no prayers.”’ A Bururneton school teacher told one of her boys that the next time he wrote a composition there must be some point to it. The subject of his next disquisiton was ‘‘Needles.”’ Wirg—A box came today; John, addressed to you. Husband—Did you open it? Wife—No. Husband—Well, I wish you had. those. dinged infernal machines.

Speaking of the TRanscript’s announcement that a young man from the East had arrived at Chicago Park to start a newspaper, and upon getting there learned to his surprise that building would not begin in the Colony till néxt Spring,’the Marysville Appeal obServes: ‘‘The newspaper is one of the first institutions found in new colonies in Southern California, and the case of this Chicago young man is not so exceptional as might be supposed. If ’ the promoters of the colony are enterprising, they will make it an object for him to immediately begin the publication of his paper at Colfax, and do all the booming that he can for Chicdgo Park this winter. The newspaper is the chief factor in attracting population to many new -town-sites in the southern part of the State.’ Good Prospects Ahead, Superintendent Richards says that at the time he was compelled to shut down the machinery and quit work at the Centenial drift mine on account of the cold ‘weather shutting off the water supply, the drift on the 400 foot level had’ just entered a deposit of fine looking gravel, the value of which could not be ascertained by reason of the pump having to stop. Work had progressed uninterruptedly through the season, and had not this severe obstructtive weather set in at least six weeks earlier than usual a valuable productive mine would have been developed. Work will, however, be actively resumed at as early a date as possible, and under better auspices thanever. . A Two Deer Before Breakfast.

Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said— “Let’s go a fishin’ ?” Of the many attractions to be offered at Trinity Society’s, Bazar this week none deserves greater mention than the fish pond and its special and peculiar adjuncts. It will be a place where the juvenile can get more than their money’s worth in useful and valuable articles, and the adult will get 100 per cent’infun or goods, No human being can expect to make @ mark in this world till he knows how to fish. Our most distinguished men and women have cast the line, and not a few of: them continue the pleasure till they can’t see the cork bobband and are obliged to use the hand line to feel the bite. Daniel Webster, one of America’s boss fisherman, would turn a client away or close his office any day to ‘go afishin’.”? President Cleveland keeps up the custom and leaves his home and bride to hook the finny tribe. _ St. Peter, the most renowned fishermen on record, holds the keys to heaven, and if we expect to enter that good place we must patronize, the Trinity fish pond. ’ Noone will regret the expenditure of small coin in angling for thegood things in store for them. The ladies have prepared and placed in vials a recipe to cure love. Just think of it—a recipe of that character. to be obtained for a dime! Annexed to the pond there-will bea booth where people. can: select partners for the leap year ball. It’s a well.known fact that certain wives, husbands, ‘‘fellers” and girls are going to get left unless some plan is devised to help them out. Everybody wants to go.. No one wants to get left. In view of this’unfortunate state of affairs the ladies have arranged this booth on the matrimonial bureau plan. Here a wife whose husband is going with another girl can put in her application, whereupon a lot of photos of lonesome gents will be shown and she can signify her choice by writing on the back of the card the word, “‘Accepted,’”’ and signing her name: This same rule will apply to husbands whose wives are going with a handsomer man. There are wives in distress about “‘hubby’’ getting left. These wives are-aching to go but dare not ask @ friend till the ‘old man” gets a partner, and they are scared almost to death lest they in tarrying get left too. No woman would be so foolish as to take her husband or brother, knowing they would thus be the laughing stock of the ball room. To all those in the above stated dilemma, the “leap year bureau’’ will be an inestible boon. Young girls too bashful’to ask a man, and there are many such, can put upa short bit (three for a quarter) ,get a partner,and no questions and treat themselves to oysters or ice cream after the dance will stand an equal show at this Christian boottr where the motto reads ‘‘Good will to all; malice toward none.’”? None but good dancers and persons of unblem-. ished character will be on sale. San Juan Times ltems.

Professor Hilgard on Their Culture in Up’ per California, Speaking of the possibilities of Northern California for the-raising of citrus plants, a late report by Professor Hilgard says that as far ‘nortli as Shasta such fruit may be profitably grown, and that the products can be placed upon the markets several weeks sooner than those from the southern part of the State. ‘That ungrafted trees,’’ says the report ‘‘planted for ornament and as curiosities rather than with any serious expectations of fruit, should have furnished a large proportion of the latter with low sugar contents and high acids, in semblance of the wild stock, was to be expected, and proves nothing as to what careful selection and culture may accomplish, while the cases in which really good fruit was shown are irrefragable proof of the possibilities in the premises.” Continuing inthe same strain the Professor says: ‘‘The growers of citrus plants in Northern California must determine for themselves what varieties come to perfection in their climate, and a priori, should perhaps distrust somewhat those that ‘acquire great perfection in a climate like that of Riverside, so_ different. from theirs. So far as analysis can determine a point, the best showing in the table is made by the seedling fruits and unnamed varieties, the maximum sugar with the lowest acid being reported from Portersville, Tulare . county. Next to those are the Mediterranean Sweet from Lakeport and the large St. Mickales from Oroville—a locality sugar in three eut of four cases. Looking over the column of acid percent-ages in oranges, there is no reason to fear comparison with Southern California at large, the average for the seventeen determinations here recorded being 1.10, almost the indentical figures obtained’ in averaging the data from the South. In lemons the acid average is rather low, although in one case the goal of 7 per cent. is nearly reached.’ It is recommended that the refuse and surplus citrus fruit be utilized for the production of essential oils, and. that although the profits may not seem large, the day of instantaneous fortune has gone by: The olive is said to fiourish through nearly the entire State. It will grow in soil too dry for the grape and too rocky for a fruit tree. “It is perhaps not as a great and valuable. product for export that the importance attaches to the cultivation of this growth, but rather as a food for home consumption.’ In concluding, the report says: ‘It is argued by many people that the olive requires an excessively long time to come into bearing. In favorable localities this is by no means the case. In the southern part of the State large olive cuttings commence to bear the fourth year. Mr. Cooper of Santa Barbara, reports two gallons of berries on some of his best trees at that age, and*as much as thirty gallons from the best at six years. * * * # # wiere the summer temperature is very low, must be termed very encouraging. Two small trees but a few feet high, brought from the Mission at San Jose, were planted in 1873, by Mra. Jeanne Carr. For two years after Mrs. Carr’s departure they were neglected, but answered very quickly to kind treatment, and after six years from planting produced some fruit, and have produced full crops every year, steadily increasing.” The yield at eight years old was about fifty pounds; at ten years over a hundred pounds per tree, while this year each tree averaged 235 pounds. In the off years the yield has been about onequarter as much. Compared with

warmer localities, where the Mission olive ripens earlier, the yield perhaps Jooks.small, but with varieties better adapted to our cold climate the result would doubtless be different. As olives are worth 4 cents a pound the profit would be good.” A Triple Alliance. Unhappily for the wretched victim of their assaults, dyspepsia, con stipation and biliousness are faithful allies. When one of these foes attack the system, the otber two speedily follow in its wake, and successively make their onslaught successively, but not: successfully if Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters be used to repel the onset.

Sheriff Lord, who .went to Quaker Hill Friday afternoon to investigate as to whether there was any good foundation for the suspicion that Thorn alias Dorsey was. roaming around in that locality, was not at all surprised to learn that another man had been mistaken ‘for the highwayman. The party-met in the forenoon by the Dutch Flat stage driver and who afterwards had a talk with J. E. Leopold was William Bryant, a resident of the neighborhood of You Bet. Bryant was on September 28th admitted to the county hospital to be treated for delirium tremens, and being discharged the other day started back to his former home. His appearance differed considerably from Thorn’s. A Regretted Resignation. The Real Estate Reporter, published weekly at Los Angeles, has the following to say of a young gentleman who but a few months since went from this city to Southern California : “‘We are pained to record this week the retirement of Mr. O. E. Mason from the editorial staff of the Real Estate Reporter. Mr. Mason is an able master of his profession—that of Law—and his assistance to us has been extended more as accommodation, than asa desire to exchange the law, for journalism. Such has ‘been his success with us, however, that we hope that so able a pen may not remain idle, no matter how pressing his legal practice may become. — Time consumed at editorial work has so encroached upon his office business that resignation from active duty he has deemed advissble. It is certain that should Mr. Mason have been moved by mercenary motives, he would long since have left us, for sad to relate editors receive much less than lawyers. With a rapidly accumulating practice we see a bright future in store for Mr. Mason. As a criminal lawyer he has few if any equals among the younger of the profession. In his career with the Reporter we note two strong elements which ought to bring about eminent success—honesty of purpose and indefatigable industry.” An enthusiastic materialist put a headstone over the grave of his wife in a cemetery at Nievre, France, upon which there is the following inscription: ‘‘Deprived of all vitality, here lie the remains of the material that formed Madame Durand. No cards and no prayers.”’ A Bururneton school teacher told one of her boys that the next time he wrote a composition there must be some point to it. The subject of his next disquisiton was ‘‘Needles.”’ Wirg—A box came today; John, addressed to you. Husband—Did you open it? Wife—No. Husband—Well, I wish you had. those. dinged infernal machines.
