Mr. Pelléymonter, Mr. Reynolds, and a Miss Hobby, who reside at Sierra City, are sick with the small-pox. Prompt action has been taken by the citizens of that place fo prevent the disease from spreading. The farmers say that the rain which his fallen this month has put the ground in the best of condition for plowing, and that they are making good progress with the work and getting in their ; eed in good season. There is more talk in this community at the present time about lands than there is about mining. The people here are just beginning to find out that we have land under their very noses that is unequalled in this State. The funeral of the late B. T. Allen will be under the auspicés of Oustomah Lodge, I. O. O. F. Services at the Methodist Church at 2 o'clock to-day.

The funeral of Mrs. Margaret Martin, which took place from Trinity Church on Sunday, was very largely attended by:the many friends of the deceased. The services were very impressive, and the many indications of sorrow manifested showed how highly she was esteemed in this community. The Lone Star Quartz and Gravel Mining Company, has filed articles of incorporation to mine and mill precious metals in Nevada county, © Capital stock $1,000,000 in 100,000 shares, of which 50 have been really subscribed with W. W. Armstrong, A. W. Blundoll, Rodney Smith, R. B. Syming‘on and J. R. Watson as Directors. A change is to be made in the time of running overland trains on the Central Pacific, so that both of the west-bound trains will pass Colfax in the night and both,east-bound trains in the daytime. It is quite likely that a day swing train between Colfax and Sacramento will be put on. These changes will necessitate a new time table on the Narrow Gauge. A Matter of History. E. O. Thompkins says in reply to the question by Charles McElvey as to who held the office of Sheriff in this county from 1850 to 1854, that Gallagher was elected in the former year. He served one year, then resigned and John Endicott was appointed his successor. In 1852, Endicott was elected to the office and held it two years. es a eaaaceaiel ~— ——— Sleeve Button Lest.

Active preparations are being made throughout Europe and America tocelebrate the one hundredth anniversary in a befitting manner. No event in the world?s history has mace the stir and. raised the dust that has this one little dance. The discoveries made by Galileo, Newton, Columbiis, Franklin, Moore, Fulton, Edison and other philosophers. and inventors pale into insignificance beside this grand work of Herr von Slogemall.People in every civilized country and in all conditions of life indulge in the waltz divine. More courtships and marriages have grown out of this little whirligig than from any other of man’s inventions. It is the greatest mashing machine known in modern society, the whirlpool of delight and the circle of joy. The pioneers of Nevada City propose togetin and have another whirl at the dizzy step. They are going to have a party at Michell’s Hall tonight when the waltz as she used to was will be danced. No katigaroo hopping, no Saratoga glides or Boston dip will be permitted. It must be the genuine old-style, or it don’t go. Further, no cotiple will be allowed on the floor unless their combined ages reach the 10) mark. This will necessarily make it a very select affair. The costumes to be worn will be an exact counterpart of those inuse at the time the waltz was introduced. The old folks don’t care tomake any money out of the party, so the tickets have been placed at the low figure of 50 cents per couple. Spectators free. This will insure a full house and lots of joy: Tickets on sale at Mulloy’s and Welch’s stores. Putting Inthe Incandescents. The Nevada City Electric Light Company having received a supply of lamps from the East have commenced. introducing their incandescent system. The following business places were wired for the lamps yesterday: W.D. Vinton, Thos. Moran, H. Pecarty, Marsh’s Barber shop, W. H. Smith, A. L. Willett, National Hotel andthe Union Hotel. The Company have placed an order with the Berstein Electric Lamp Company of Boston for an extra large supply of lamps combining all the latest improvements, which will be introduced upon their arrival. The lamps have been thoroughly tested by Danville Decker, electrician of the Waterhouse Electric Light Com: pany, and found to give the most satisfactory results in connection with the arc system. The following prices will be charged which will compare favorably to other systems of lighting: 60 candle power lights, 75 cents per week; 125 candle power lights, $1 per week. They have ample power to thoroughly light the town. As soon asa demand will warrant them they will add to their plant an incandescent dynamo such as are in use in the East for incandescent lighting. It is believed the above prices can be reduced when sufficient business is obtained. ~~ At the Theater Tonight. An immense block of seats was reserved for last night’s performance of the Wilber Comedy Company. The play produced on their figst appearance was “Woman against Woman,”’ written by Bartley Camphell. on® of the most powerful society Tt is dramas of the day, and loses none of its force in the hands of the Wilber Company who have met with the greatest. success wherever they have appeared, owing to the fact that they give first-class representations at moderate prices of admission.’ Tonight Bartley Camphell’s greatest melodrama, ‘‘The Galley Slave,’ will he given with the full companv in the cast, and a fine entertainment can confidently be anticipated. Reserved seats can be obtained at Miulloy’s without extra charge. F Warning to Parents. The curfew bell is rung every evening at 8 o’clock, and then the boys are expected togo home. If the parents of some of tle young boys do not keep them at home as soon as the sun goes down, the first thing they will know is that they have acquired bad habits that cannot be so easily broken, such as cigarette smoking and visiting haunts of vice. Parents, do yeu know where your boys go and what they are doing after dark till they return home late in the evening? If not, watch them some night and see for yourselves. a Pioneer's Son. James Adair, who represents a Chicago cigar manufactory, was here last Saturday on a visit to his aunt, Mrs. Isaac Adair, and her children. The young gentleman’s father is said to have erected Nevada City. In the Summer of 1849 he came across the plains with seventyfive other people _from Guernsey county, Ohio, and with several of the party arrived here that Fall.

Dreyfuss has returned from San Jose. She brought her grandchild with her. Ex-Governor Blasdel took his departure Saturday evening for Oakland, after having spent several weeks here. Grove Johnson, the great lawyer of Sacramento, who has been dangeroulsy ill for several weeks, is now pronounced out of danger. W. S. Schultz and P. McCallum are here for the purpose of gathering information for the State Directory to be soon published by R. L. Polk & Co. Wm. C. Stokes, of Grass Valley, who has been dangerously ill for some time, was much _ better yesterday. Good men are-scarce and therefore he will live. " Mrs. Dan Cole and Miss Minnie Cole of the Mountain House and Miss Alice Gaynor.of North San Juan were in town yesterday and will go to San Francisco today. It was rumored in town yesterday, for the second or third time within a week, that M. Alty, who was injured by acaving bank, was dead. The fact is he is likely to recover from his in juries. Thomas Ewing of San Francisco, a well known mining capitalist who has at intervals for twenty-five years past operated in Nevada county properties, .paid a visit Sunday to his old stamping grounds, ; Mr. Nicholas Berriman of Grass Valley, Gas and Electrical Engineer, has taken charge of the Gas Works in this city for the present, and may accept a permanent situation in that capacity. The young gentleman is thoroughly capable and reliable. Expectant Miners. D. F.Verdenal, New York correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle, says: Harry Murray,too, looks as happy as if_he expected-a Christmas box of-unusually. large proportions. He is considerably interested in. the Brunswick mine of Grass Valley, and declares and firmly believes that the stamps will be dropping on pay ore about the tirst of next year, 1888. He also reports a big development recently which encourages his followers in the building of beautiful castles in the air. The ‘street generally hopes that Mr. Murray’s brightest hopes may be realized, for the mining market requires some stimulating draughts just now. The price of Brunswick shares remains unchanged. Marysville Suffers Also. The Appeal ‘says the determined’ fight of the valley people has had the effect of cempletely crippling the hydraulic miners. And the Appeal should have-edded that it has also about knocked the bottom out of business and values of real estate in Marysville. That town was principally kept up by the hydraulic miners until the railroad was built to this city, when the bulk of the business came this way,and that is what instigated the fight against the miners. That, and nothing else. Was It An Accident? William S. Richards et al., executors ofthe estate of Philip Richards, deceased, have. commenced suit in the Superior Court against the Travelers Insurance Company to recover $5,000 on an accident insurance, policy issued by defendant to plaintiff. Interest since May 27th is also asked. The company refuse to pay the policy.

A Seasonable Reminiscense From WNevada County. Sacramento Bee:—A Bee reporter was conversing with an old and wellknown resident of this State on yesterday about the Dodye-Kendall sensa tion, when the old pioneer said: ° “Well, I don’t know much about Kendall, but if Dodge is as_ successful as was his father in getting people into trouble, heis a good one. Why, more than twenty years ago the elder Dodge had a difficulty in Nevada county which resulted in one man being murdered and his (Dodge’s) brother, Robert, being hanged: for the killing.” “You don’t tell'me,’’ ejaculated the reporter; ‘“‘tell me what you know about it.’’ The old-timer Changed his ‘“‘cud” from the right~+o~the left side of his mouth, rolled his eyes reflectively upward-and began: -“Let me see—it was in the sixties, about the close of the war, when a mannamed Mark T. Hammock was killed. Somebody shot him through a window while he was standing ina Saloon at Allison’s Ranch, in Nevada county. He was killed instantly, five bullets piercing his body. Nobody saw who fired the ‘deadly shot, but suspicion at-once rested on the Dodge brothers, as Hammock and ene of the boys—Charley’s father—-had quarreled. Charley’s father was arrested, I believe, tried and acquitted. Then Robert was tried. The evidence against him was more convincing— though purely circumstantial. On the afternoon before the shooting, he had borrowed a shotgun from a boy, on a pretense of going quail shooting, and when he was arrested there. were in the gun bullets similar to those which had penetrated Hammock’s body. If I remember correctly, when Robert was on trial, Charley’s father, who had i been acquitted and was safe on the ‘once in jeopardy’ plea, got on the witness stand and swore that he committed the murder. The jury did not believe him, it seems, as Robert was adjudged guilty and, after an appeal to the Supreme Court, was hanged about two years aftr the murder. He went to the gallows protesting his innocence.” Superior Court. The ‘following business was transacted in the Superior Court yesteray, Hon. J. M. Walling presiding: Cornelius Sullivan vs. Grass Valley M. & M. Co. Demurrer overruled. The People vs. Edwin Booth and Clause Bergendale. The motion to set aside information on the ground that before the filing thereof the defendants had not been legally committed, was taken under advisement. J. B. Ducray et al. vs. A. Nivens, Sr. et al. Demurrer to answer argued and submitted. . 8S. M. Harris vs. L.-R. Webster. Hearing of motion to dismiss continued one week. H. J. Fuchs vs. W. B. Bourne et al. Hearing of demurrer continued. P. Dillon vs. C. W. Kitts et al. Motion to strike out motion to tax costs denied. Wm. Smith vs. F.M.Andre. Demrrer overruled and defendant given 20 days to answer. N. H. Loomer vs. Thos. Corrigan. Motion to strike out cost bill submitted. ~W. Jenkin, insolvent debtor. Insolvent granted 15 days to answer objection to petition. i Ella M. Coombs vs. Nevada and Grass Valley W. and L. Co. Motion to appoint Receiver denied. A False Statement. The Marysville Appeal says that the reports of the engineers of the War Department verify every statement that Ohleyer made to Senator Stanford. It is false, and we challenge the Appeal to produce the evidence. Did the engineers in their report state that all the hydraulic mines were owned by foreigners, and that not over one thousand men were employed in that business, ag Ohleyer stated to Stanford? We pause for a reply.

Polk & Co., the most extensive directory publishers. inthe United States, have undertaken the . publication of a work on the State of California similar to those now published by them in over thirty States. The success they have met with where their directories have been published for years should be a guarantee that the work to be published in this State will merit the contidence of the business public, and become 'a permanent and standard publication. The work of canvassing Nevada City is now going on, and we trust the liberal patronage received by the firm in San Francisco, Sacramento, Stockton, and other cities will be extended to them here, and enable them to do justice to our fair city in their publication. The work/will have quite an extensive circulation East, and its excellence as a means of advertising the city must be apparent.

Critical Condition of a Former Resident of This County. Judge Belden, formerly of this county, is again lying seriously ill at his home in San Jose,says the Mercury: Until Wednesday he was thought to be steadily improving but on the morning ofthat day a re-attack of his former trouble, a complication of heart and kidney disease, occurred. The paroxysms which had endangered his life before returned and gradially increased in numbér and intensity. His condition steadily grew worse until yesterday afternoon when he apparently came under the influence of the remedies and fell into’ a slumber. He rested quietly during the evening; waking occasionally at which times nourishment was given him. He is very weak and ‘speaks very little on awaking, though still retaining possession of 1] his faculties. The sick chamber is kept as quiet as possible, none but liis wife and” the usual attendants being allowed te enter. Judge Belden is a very sick man and ‘the result of his sickness cannot’ be determined though his physician hopes for a favorable termination. Dr. W. S. Thorn is in constant attendance’ and remained by the bedside all ‘night. Throughout the night he rested quietly, waking up about every hour, but showing no signs of returning paroxysms, although early in the evening he had a severe attaek!

Active preparations are being made throughout Europe and America tocelebrate the one hundredth anniversary in a befitting manner. No event in the world?s history has mace the stir and. raised the dust that has this one little dance. The discoveries made by Galileo, Newton, Columbiis, Franklin, Moore, Fulton, Edison and other philosophers. and inventors pale into insignificance beside this grand work of Herr von Slogemall.People in every civilized country and in all conditions of life indulge in the waltz divine. More courtships and marriages have grown out of this little whirligig than from any other of man’s inventions. It is the greatest mashing machine known in modern society, the whirlpool of delight and the circle of joy. The pioneers of Nevada City propose togetin and have another whirl at the dizzy step. They are going to have a party at Michell’s Hall tonight when the waltz as she used to was will be danced. No katigaroo hopping, no Saratoga glides or Boston dip will be permitted. It must be the genuine old-style, or it don’t go. Further, no cotiple will be allowed on the floor unless their combined ages reach the 10) mark. This will necessarily make it a very select affair. The costumes to be worn will be an exact counterpart of those inuse at the time the waltz was introduced. The old folks don’t care tomake any money out of the party, so the tickets have been placed at the low figure of 50 cents per couple. Spectators free. This will insure a full house and lots of joy: Tickets on sale at Mulloy’s and Welch’s stores. Putting Inthe Incandescents. The Nevada City Electric Light Company having received a supply of lamps from the East have commenced. introducing their incandescent system. The following business places were wired for the lamps yesterday: W.D. Vinton, Thos. Moran, H. Pecarty, Marsh’s Barber shop, W. H. Smith, A. L. Willett, National Hotel andthe Union Hotel. The Company have placed an order with the Berstein Electric Lamp Company of Boston for an extra large supply of lamps combining all the latest improvements, which will be introduced upon their arrival. The lamps have been thoroughly tested by Danville Decker, electrician of the Waterhouse Electric Light Com: pany, and found to give the most satisfactory results in connection with the arc system. The following prices will be charged which will compare favorably to other systems of lighting: 60 candle power lights, 75 cents per week; 125 candle power lights, $1 per week. They have ample power to thoroughly light the town. As soon asa demand will warrant them they will add to their plant an incandescent dynamo such as are in use in the East for incandescent lighting. It is believed the above prices can be reduced when sufficient business is obtained. ~~ At the Theater Tonight. An immense block of seats was reserved for last night’s performance of the Wilber Comedy Company.

Reserved seats can be obtained at Miulloy’s without extra charge. F Warning to Parents. The curfew bell is rung every evening at 8 o’clock, and then the boys are expected togo home. If the parents of some of tle young boys do not keep them at home as soon as the sun goes down, the first thing they will know is that they have acquired bad habits that cannot be so easily broken, such as cigarette smoking and visiting haunts of vice. Parents, do yeu know where your boys go and what they are doing after dark till they return home late in the evening? If not, watch them some night and see for yourselves. a Pioneer's Son.

The young gentleman is thoroughly capable and reliable. Expectant Miners. D. F.Verdenal, New York correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle, says: Harry Murray,too, looks as happy as if_he expected-a Christmas box of-unusually. large proportions. He is considerably interested in. the Brunswick mine of Grass Valley, and declares and firmly believes that the stamps will be dropping on pay ore about the tirst of next year, 1888. He also reports a big development recently which encourages his followers in the building of beautiful castles in the air. The ‘street generally hopes that Mr. Murray’s brightest hopes may be realized, for the mining market requires some stimulating draughts just now. The price of Brunswick shares remains unchanged. Marysville Suffers Also. The Appeal ‘says the determined’ fight of the valley people has had the effect of cempletely crippling the hydraulic miners. And the Appeal should have-edded that it has also about knocked the bottom out of business and values of real estate in Marysville. That town was principally kept up by the hydraulic miners until the railroad was built to this city, when the bulk of the business came this way,and that is what instigated the fight against the miners. That, and nothing else. Was It An Accident? William S.

A Seasonable Reminiscense From WNevada County. Sacramento Bee:—A Bee reporter was conversing with an old and wellknown resident of this State on yesterday about the Dodye-Kendall sensa tion, when the old pioneer said: ° “Well, I don’t know much about Kendall, but if Dodge is as_ successful as was his father in getting people into trouble, heis a good one. Why, more than twenty years ago the elder Dodge had a difficulty in Nevada county which resulted in one man being murdered and his (Dodge’s) brother, Robert, being hanged: for the killing.” “You don’t tell'me,’’ ejaculated the reporter; ‘“‘tell me what you know about it.’’ The old-timer Changed his ‘“‘cud” from the right~+o~the left side of his mouth, rolled his eyes reflectively upward-and began: -“Let me see—it was in the sixties, about the close of the war, when a mannamed Mark T. Hammock was killed. Somebody shot him through a window while he was standing ina Saloon at Allison’s Ranch, in Nevada county. He was killed instantly, five bullets piercing his body. Nobody saw who fired the ‘deadly shot, but suspicion at-once rested on the Dodge brothers, as Hammock and ene of the boys—Charley’s father—-had quarreled. Charley’s father was arrested, I believe, tried and acquitted. Then Robert was tried. The evidence against him was more convincing—

though purely circumstantial. On the afternoon before the shooting, he had borrowed a shotgun from a boy, on a pretense of going quail shooting, and when he was arrested there. were in the gun bullets similar to those which had penetrated Hammock’s body. If I remember correctly, when Robert was on trial, Charley’s father, who had i been acquitted and was safe on the ‘once in jeopardy’ plea, got on the witness stand and swore that he committed the murder. The jury did not believe him, it seems, as Robert was adjudged guilty and, after an appeal to the Supreme Court, was hanged about two years aftr the murder. He went to the gallows protesting his innocence.” Superior Court. The ‘following business was transacted in the Superior Court yesteray, Hon. J. M. Walling presiding: Cornelius Sullivan vs. Grass Valley M. & M. Co. Demurrer overruled. The People vs. Edwin Booth and Clause Bergendale. The motion to set aside information on the ground that before the filing thereof the defendants had not been legally committed, was taken under advisement. J. B. Ducray et al. vs. A. Nivens, Sr. et al. Demurrer to answer argued and submitted. . 8S. M. Harris vs. L.-R. Webster. Hearing of motion to dismiss continued one week. H. J. Fuchs vs. W. B. Bourne et al. Hearing of demurrer continued. P. Dillon vs. C. W. Kitts et al. Motion to strike out motion to tax costs denied. Wm. Smith vs. F.M.Andre. Demrrer overruled and defendant given 20 days to answer. N.

Coombs vs. Nevada and Grass Valley W. and L. Co. Motion to appoint Receiver denied. A False Statement. The Marysville Appeal says that the reports of the engineers of the War Department verify every statement that Ohleyer made to Senator Stanford. It is false, and we challenge the Appeal to produce the evidence. Did the engineers in their report state that all the hydraulic mines were owned by foreigners, and that not over one thousand men were employed in that business, ag Ohleyer stated to Stanford? We pause for a reply.

Critical Condition of a Former Resident of This County. Judge Belden, formerly of this county, is again lying seriously ill at his home in San Jose,says the Mercury: Until Wednesday he was thought to be steadily improving but on the morning ofthat day a re-attack of his former trouble, a complication of heart and kidney disease, occurred. The paroxysms which had endangered his life before returned and gradially increased in numbér and intensity. His condition steadily grew worse until yesterday afternoon when he apparently came under the influence of the remedies and fell into’ a slumber. He rested quietly during the evening; waking occasionally at which times nourishment was given him. He is very weak and ‘speaks very little on awaking, though still retaining possession of 1] his faculties. The sick chamber is kept as quiet as possible, none but liis wife and” the usual attendants being allowed te enter. Judge Belden is a very sick man and ‘the result of his sickness cannot’ be determined though his physician hopes for a favorable termination. Dr. W. S. Thorn is in constant attendance’ and remained by the bedside all ‘night. Throughout the night he rested quietly, waking up about every hour, but showing no signs of returning paroxysms, although early in the evening he had a severe attaek!
