"THURSDAY. DEO. 8, 1887. HERE AND THERE. The Idaho mine in this county has . declared its 218th dividend. There was a bit of a row Tuesday evening in a Broad street saloon. County Treasurer Shoecraft gives notice in another column that certain warrants are now payable. Interest on them has ceased. F Owing to the heavy condition of the roads since the storm, the Sierra City stage does not now arrive at this city till about 6:30 o’clocx. During the month ending on Monday last, County Treasurer Shoecraft has collected State and county taxes to the amount of $25,102.05. The Narrow Gauge train was about half an hour late in reaching this city Tuesday: evening, owing to its being heavily loaded with passengers and freight. The children’s class will meet at the Dancing Academy Saturday afternoon. Mr. Michell will give a Christmas party on the evening of Monday, the 24th instant. The breaking of a shaft. at the Empire mine night before last will cause a suspension of operations at that mine for several days and temporarily throw a large force of men out of work. F On Thursday last B. Aroni, an Italian, was arrested at Sierra City, by ’ the Sheriff of the county on suspicion of having murdered F. Harland, Superintendent of the American Hill quartz mine, on the 22d of October, 1886. : Three tramps, supposed to be the same ones who were. last week turned loose here ‘after a brief term in the county jail, were arrested at Sacramento Monday evening on.suspicion of robbing a young man of a watch and $35,in money. Northern California newspaper solicitors are down in the southern country looking up ‘‘ads,” and the Los Angeles Tribune warns the business men of its section against ‘‘warm‘ing in their bosoms the serpent that will turn and sting them.” The extension of Mill street in Grass Valley is being macadamized with rock from the waste of the Rocky Bar mine. John Mulroy picked up from the street a piece of the rock that __yieldedghim $70 worth of gold, while a boy named Daily found a piece that ~ ytelded him $40. California not only has the world’s championship for handsome women, energetic men, luscious fruits and healthy climate, but its sunsets are the most. beautiful seen anywhere. As old Sol was. sinking behind the western horizon Tuesday evening he was clothed in colors whose brilliancy and variety would put to shame the gems in Alladin’s Palagey) Foothill Oranges. Dana Perkins’ orange trees alongside the railroad station at Rocklin are loaded down with the, luscious golden fruit. It is necessary to prop up the limbs in order to prevent them from breaking under their burden. Mr. Perkins perfiitted this scribe to cut from one of the trees a bunch bearing five as fine seedling oranges as were ever grown in the State. The scribe in turn presented the trophy to Messrs. Ludlam and Traver, who took it with them when they left Tuesday evening for Chicago in which city they. propose to find a market for a number of tracts of Nevada county fruit land. The Rocklin trees have been made famous by the report started two years ago by Southern California newspapers, to the effect that the oranges seen on them had been imported from Los Angeles and fastened on by artificial means. If this year’s crop is tied or glued to the trees, the job has been so cleverly done by Mr. Perkins as to challenge detection. Wative Sons Election. The following were elected Tuesday evening as officers of Hydraulic Parlor, No. 56: Fred Bost, President; E. P. Gaylord, First Vice President; Sherman W. Marsh, Second Vice President; P. T. Byrne, Third Vice President; W. J. Smith, Marshal; Will T. Morgan, Secretary ; John M. Hussey, Financial Secretary. The installation will take place on the evening of the second Tuesday in January.

ARO A ARTA MTR LN LRT IR "LET THE LIGHT SHINE.”An Opportunity for Nevada County to Show Herself to Advantage. Hon. W. D. Perkins was in town yesterday. He gave the reporter’’a full account of the organization ‘at Auburn on Saturday last of a Board of Trade for Placer county. The following officers were elected: J. Parker Whitney, President; W. B. Lardner Vice-President; James Tufts, Secretary; and O. W. Hollenback, freasurer. Directors—E. W. Maslin, A Moser, J. C. Boggs, J. J. Morrison, P, F. Butler, W. B, Hayford, 8. M. Stevens, U. O. Smith, N.S: Lowell, G. D. Kellogg, J. F. Madden, Charles Gladding and F. P. Tuttle. Fully $600 was guaranteed at the meeting for purposes of the association, and. it was unanimously decided to make an exhibit of citrus and other fruits from Placer county, to begin about the 20th of this month and continua from two to three weeks. Several representatives from Placer county. will go to Los Angeles to aid in the exhibition to be: made. A special committee was appointed by the County Board of Trade to take charge of the work of the exhibition, as follows: J.J. Mors rison, P. W. Butler, J. F. Madden, John C. Boggs and Mr. Ambrose. A Committee on Constitution and Bylaws was appointed, to Yeport atthe next meeting of the Board which will be next Saturday. ‘And now,” asked Mr. Perkins, ‘‘why cannot the citizens of Nevada county stand in with us and make a joint exhibit? We would like their co-operation. We should have it. Placer and Nevada counties are neighbors enjoying the same advantages and their interests are identical. What helps either benefits'the other. They should pull together on every proposition. I will on Saturday next if possible send you particulars as to the exact time of beginning the exhibit-at Los Angeles, how to send articles, etc. In the meantime some of your citizens will I hope make a collection of such fruits, nuts, grains, grass, etc., as they can, noting in each case the township, section, altitude; etc., of the locality where they are raised.” Died From His Injuries. James Fennelly, aged 67 years, who was hurt ia the Idaho mine Monday morning by. being struck with a~ descending cage, died at one o’clock yesterday morning. The funeral will take ploce in Grass Valley at 2 o’clock Friday afternoon. The deceased was the brcther of Mrs. A. Tam of this city. He had been employed in the Idaho ever since the shutting down of the ‘old Eureka where he formerly worked. Monday was the third time that he had been hurt in the Idaho. He leaves a wife, and his estate amounting in valueto several thousand dolconsists of real estate and money. A Creditable Career. Today.is the 29th anniversary ‘of the date on which Oscar Maltman first engaged at this city in the business of extracting gold and silver from ore and sulphurets. He has during his long career here built up a widespread reputation for strictest integrity in all his dealings,and has achieved results with his improved process of reduction that he may well be proud of. His works have the credit of being ‘conducted so as to give better returns to their patrons than any other on the coast. Recovered the Ring. It will be remembered that a few weeks ago several hundred dollars belonging to the Manzanita drift mining en from the residence of S. Wheeler on Pine street during the family’s absence. <A few days since a diamond . ring belonging to Mrs. Wheeler and supposed to have been taken with the balance of the plunder was discovered in the house, it having evidently been mislaid by the owner. The Nevada City Railroad. This is from the Marysville Appeal of Tuesday: ‘James O’Brien was in town yesterday. He said he was not able at present to state when a survey would be made for the railroad to Nevada City, but the people of Marysville could be assured that it would be ‘in .operation within the next thirty months.” Will Ask for a Pardon. Edwin Ragon, a young man sent from this city in May, 1885, to serve seven years in State prison for assaulting A. H. Underwood with intent to commit murder, gives fotice in another column that he will petition Governor Waterman for a pardon. Pumping and Hoisting Works Wanted.

Eprror Transcript—As the time approaches for the meeting of the National Republican Committee here in a few days, active movements are being made in Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis and other cities to capture the National Convention, each, of the aspirants asserting peculiar claims for the distinction that will be laid before the Committee by strong local delegations.® The advance guard of the Chicago and Philadelphia delegations are already here, and. quite as much interest is taken in the matter as at any similar period in the history of the party. One thing is very observable: that these men refrain from expressing any personal preference as to candidates, and are not marking the boom of any one. The disposition is every where apparent among Republicans, that the nominee of the convention will be perfectly satisfactory, and that our duty is to see that he is elected. There are no. quarrels now to adjust. United action is the watch word from one end of the line to the other, and with this spirit animating our ranks, we can enter the canvass, whoever may be our standard bearer, with the utmost assurance of success. In talking recently with Senator Spooner, of: Wisconsin, who is not only one of the ablest. men in Congress, but one of the finest orators if the country, he said: ‘This session’ will be a fighting one. The struggle between the two great political parties will bé ‘intense. The question that will beat the fore-front are those of the tariff, the surplus, and finance, which, with the question of freedom of the ballot and honesty of selections, will make enough work to occupy. all of our attention.” The Senator suggested a suspicion that the general acquiescence of the democratic leaders fn Mr. Cleveland’s renomination may have been brought about by the understanding that in due time he will refuse to run a second time. There may be a good deal in this suggestion, and on no other hypothesis ‘can you account for the sudden trans‘formation of several very prominent democrats who were planing severe war on Mr. Cleveland’s administration. As a Republican, I hope. there is nothing in the suggestion, and that he will’ be the regular demccratic nominee. ae One would hardly expect it, yet there are decided differences of perof Government clerks. The Treasury clerks are the least spruce in appearance and most spiritless in manner of all Government employes. The most independent, nonchalant, and cosmopolitan are those of the Interior Department, who look and act as though they were happy and prosperous. The Post Office Department people are a serious folk, and have a crushed aspect. The building is as still asacemetery. A visitor walks into the Interior Department as if he owned it, but when he enters the Post Office Department, he begins to falter and stammer at the very entrance. The Army and Navy clerks are very dressy, rather exclusive, but always polite. The Department of Justice has no special individuality, but the State Department can furnish perfect specimens of the aristocratic genus of clerks. They have little intercourse with clerks of other Departments, and are emphatically ‘‘dudes’’ of the most exquisite kind, aping the foreign representatives and attaches with whom they are brought in contact. The public has little to do with that Department, and are perfectly willing ‘that’ the fine-haired gentlemen shall enjoy their seclusion. _4 The General Land Office has issued 2,400 ‘agricultural patents during the past month, and 700 additional cases are being prepared, of which 500 are for final: homesteads in the Fargo (Dakota) district. Some 1900 other cases are under consideration, and the whole number patented in November will reach nearly 5,000. There is a good deal of talk here about a certain handsome young lady of wealth and social position, allying herself in marriage to a member of the Chinese Legation. It is strange what peculiar whims some of our American girls are possessed of. Secretary of War Endicott is taking official life remarkable easy. He is here but a small portion of the time, and when here never gets excited over Department business. Nearly everything is routine work, and left to Bureau chiefs who are regular Army officers. _ ‘Lord’? Chamberlain, of the Fishery Commission and his suit occupy thirty-seven rooms at the Arlington hotel. pressing the President severely for pouoes. and are after every, official epublican scalp in their respective districts, _ Forry-Ningr. Waste of Tissue ‘Without Repair. Vigor begins to decline when dyspepsia invades the stomach. The diease, prolonged through neglect, entails grievous losses of flesh and serious waste of the muscular tissue. To invigorate thoroughly and s: ily, a sound stomachic is required. There is none comparable to Hoastetter’s Stomach Bitters, since it institutes, and if continued ba tuates a re of the tissues, which have decli: in bulk, vi and elasticity in conseuence of non-assimilation of the food. o time should be lost in beginnin the reparative process, nor shel there be any delay in removing those ailments of frequent occurrences which contribute to and foster an enfeebled condition of the, stomach and nerves, viz: constipation and liver complaint, disorders which the Bitters will assuredly ex ish.

A Powerful Play By a First-Class Com= pany. The performance of ‘Hoodman Blind’? on Tuesday evening by the Gustavus Levick Company was one of the best theatricat’ entertainments given at this city for a long time past. The drama tells the story of a young farmer who through the duplicity of a supposed friend is deceived into believing that his wife is untrue, while in fact she is the incarnation of purity and fidelity. In the development of the plot the sunlight of truth dispels that which obscures the moral vision of/the hoodwinked husband, and he is Hoodman Blind no longer. As ‘f.'ack Yeulett,’? the farmer, Mr. Levick showed himself to be an actor of great power, and entitled to a place among the very best of the American stage. He possesses a fine physique, a rich and thoroughly cultivated voice, and at times, especially in the more intense passages, reminds one strongly Although , robust in style, his vigor of expression seldom approximates ranting. In the tion with a delicacy that indicates the work of a true artist.He comes of a family of great actors; and ‘the heritage of genius bestowed upon him by his predecessors has not deteriorated in-his hands. He is admirably supported by the company. Miss Alsberg is a charming actress, and appears to excellent advantage in the dual-role of ‘‘Nance Yeulett,’’ the wronged wife, and ‘‘Jess,” the’ outcast. She hasin these an opportunity forthe display of versatility that is taken .full advantage of. Messrs. Page, Franklin and Armstrong in comedy parts provoke much laughter, while Messrs. Richardson and Carroll as the ‘‘villains” who finally meet with deserved retribution are deserving of much praise for the ability they display. The other ladies and gontlemen (there are some sixteen in all) are far above the average support ordinarily accorded in the more pretentious of combinations to be seen outside of the large cities. Mr. Levick and his company have established themselves: here as great favorites. Did Dorsey Steal Ht? The San. Francisco Examiner of Tuesday says: “Sheriff Gardner of Marin county: reported at the office of Chief Crowley yesterday that a boat belonging to the Patent Brick Company, whose yard is near San Quentin, had been stolen last Sunday night, and that the supposed thieves were Dorsey and Shinn,-the escaped convicts. The neighborhoood has many good hiding places, and it is thought that the escapes kept themselves concealed until the excitement blew over and then: stole the boat to get away from the vicinity of the prison. They. may ‘have gone to Contra Costa county or come to this side. The latter course being the safest for them they, took it, it is thought.” f Of Its Base. The Tidings says: The Nevada City Methodist Sunday School have,a Christmas tree and the the cantata of ‘‘Kriss Kringle” on Wednesday evening, December 28th. That’s behind time and teaches children that sacred things can be post-poned and still be sufficient. The Tidings is muddled. The Transcrirr stated plainly that the Christmas tree exercises: would take place Christmas Eve and the cantata on the following Wednesday evening: The Tidings can let the sermon stand as written but it should retract’the erroneous text. Facts Worth Knowing. In all diseases of the nasal mucous membrane: the remedy used must be non-irritating. The medical profession has been slow to learn this. Nothing satisfactory can be accomplished with douches, snuffs, powders, syringes, astringents, or any simular application, because they are all irritating,do not thoroughly reach the affected surfaces and should be abandoned as worse than failures.

Francisco Hotel Gazette says: ‘The Native Sons of the Golden West will assist in the prosecution of the assassin of their beloved comrade, Ralph Sydney Smith, the young editor of the Redwood Times and Gazette. The article ‘in, his paper which called out the murderous attack, is generally pronounced by no stretch of pleading to be made to appear an adequate provocation to the vengeful attack of the assassin. From appearances, the latter will meet a just award. at the hands of judge and jury ; and thé people are fortunate that California has a governor who has locked up the pardoning power where no one but-himself can get at it, and has forgotten where he put the key.” Masonic Election. The following were elected Tuesday evening as officers for the ensuing year of Madison Lodge, No. 23, F. and A. M., at Grass Valley: Thos. J. Michell, W. M.; I.Stein, S: Wi; W. E, Deamer, J. W.; E.

"THURSDAY. DEO. 8, 1887. HERE AND THERE. The Idaho mine in this county has . declared its 218th dividend. There was a bit of a row Tuesday evening in a Broad street saloon. County Treasurer Shoecraft gives notice in another column that certain warrants are now payable. Interest on them has ceased. F Owing to the heavy condition of the roads since the storm, the Sierra City stage does not now arrive at this city till about 6:30 o’clocx. During the month ending on Monday last, County Treasurer Shoecraft has collected State and county taxes to the amount of $25,102.05. The Narrow Gauge train was about half an hour late in reaching this city Tuesday: evening, owing to its being heavily loaded with passengers and freight. The children’s class will meet at the Dancing Academy Saturday afternoon. Mr. Michell will give a Christmas party on the evening of Monday, the 24th instant. The breaking of a shaft. at the Empire mine night before last will cause a suspension of operations at that mine for several days and temporarily throw a large force of men out of work. F On Thursday last B. Aroni, an Italian, was arrested at Sierra City, by ’ the Sheriff of the county on suspicion of having murdered F. Harland, Superintendent of the American Hill quartz mine, on the 22d of October, 1886. : Three tramps, supposed to be the same ones who were. last week turned loose here ‘after a brief term in the county jail, were arrested at Sacramento Monday evening on.suspicion of robbing a young man of a watch and $35,in money. Northern California newspaper solicitors are down in the southern country looking up ‘‘ads,” and the Los Angeles Tribune warns the business men of its section against ‘‘warm‘ing in their bosoms the serpent that will turn and sting them.” The extension of Mill street in Grass Valley is being macadamized with rock from the waste of the Rocky Bar mine. John Mulroy picked up from the street a piece of the rock that __yieldedghim $70 worth of gold, while a boy named Daily found a piece that ~ ytelded him $40. California not only has the world’s championship for handsome women, energetic men, luscious fruits and healthy climate, but its sunsets are the most. beautiful seen anywhere. As old Sol was. sinking behind the western horizon Tuesday evening he was clothed in colors whose brilliancy and variety would put to shame the gems in Alladin’s Palagey) Foothill Oranges. Dana Perkins’ orange trees alongside the railroad station at Rocklin are loaded down with the, luscious golden fruit. It is necessary to prop up the limbs in order to prevent them from breaking under their burden. Mr. Perkins perfiitted this scribe to cut from one of the trees a bunch bearing five as fine seedling oranges as were ever grown in the State. The scribe in turn presented the trophy to Messrs. Ludlam and Traver, who took it with them when they left Tuesday evening for Chicago in which city they. propose to find a market for a number of tracts of Nevada county fruit land. The Rocklin trees have been made famous by the report started two years ago by Southern California newspapers, to the effect that the oranges seen on them had been imported from Los Angeles and fastened on by artificial means. If this year’s crop is tied or glued to the trees, the job has been so cleverly done by Mr. Perkins as to challenge detection. Wative Sons Election. The following were elected Tuesday evening as officers of Hydraulic Parlor, No. 56: Fred Bost, President; E. P. Gaylord, First Vice President; Sherman W. Marsh, Second Vice President; P. T. Byrne, Third Vice President; W. J. Smith, Marshal; Will T. Morgan, Secretary ; John M. Hussey, Financial Secretary. The installation will take place on the evening of the second Tuesday in January.

ARO A ARTA MTR LN LRT IR "LET THE LIGHT SHINE.”An Opportunity for Nevada County to Show Herself to Advantage. Hon. W. D. Perkins was in town yesterday. He gave the reporter’’a full account of the organization ‘at Auburn on Saturday last of a Board of Trade for Placer county. The following officers were elected: J. Parker Whitney, President; W. B. Lardner Vice-President; James Tufts, Secretary; and O. W. Hollenback, freasurer. Directors—E. W. Maslin, A Moser, J. C. Boggs, J. J. Morrison, P, F. Butler, W. B, Hayford, 8. M. Stevens, U. O. Smith, N.S: Lowell, G. D. Kellogg, J. F. Madden, Charles Gladding and F. P. Tuttle. Fully $600 was guaranteed at the meeting for purposes of the association, and. it was unanimously decided to make an exhibit of citrus and other fruits from Placer county, to begin about the 20th of this month and continua from two to three weeks. Several representatives from Placer county. will go to Los Angeles to aid in the exhibition to be: made. A special committee was appointed by the County Board of Trade to take charge of the work of the exhibition, as follows: J.J. Mors rison, P. W. Butler, J. F. Madden, John C. Boggs and Mr. Ambrose. A Committee on Constitution and Bylaws was appointed, to Yeport atthe next meeting of the Board which will be next Saturday. ‘And now,” asked Mr. Perkins, ‘‘why cannot the citizens of Nevada county stand in with us and make a joint exhibit? We would like their co-operation. We should have it. Placer and Nevada counties are neighbors enjoying the same advantages and their interests are identical. What helps either benefits'the other. They should pull together on every proposition. I will on Saturday next if possible send you particulars as to the exact time of beginning the exhibit-at Los Angeles, how to send articles, etc. In the meantime some of your citizens will I hope make a collection of such fruits, nuts, grains, grass, etc., as they can, noting in each case the township, section, altitude; etc., of the locality where they are raised.” Died From His Injuries. James Fennelly, aged 67 years, who was hurt ia the Idaho mine Monday morning by. being struck with a~ descending cage, died at one o’clock yesterday morning. The funeral will take ploce in Grass Valley at 2 o’clock Friday afternoon. The deceased was the brcther of Mrs. A. Tam of this city. He had been employed in the Idaho ever since the shutting down of the ‘old Eureka where he formerly worked. Monday was the third time that he had been hurt in the Idaho. He leaves a wife, and his estate amounting in valueto several thousand dolconsists of real estate and money. A Creditable Career. Today.is the 29th anniversary ‘of the date on which Oscar Maltman first engaged at this city in the business of extracting gold and silver from ore and sulphurets. He has during his long career here built up a widespread reputation for strictest integrity in all his dealings,and has achieved results with his improved process of reduction that he may well be proud of. His works have the credit of being ‘conducted so as to give better returns to their patrons than any other on the coast. Recovered the Ring. It will be remembered that a few weeks ago several hundred dollars belonging to the Manzanita drift mining en from the residence of S. Wheeler on Pine street during the family’s absence. <A few days since a diamond . ring belonging to Mrs. Wheeler and supposed to have been taken with the balance of the plunder was discovered in the house, it having evidently been mislaid by the owner. The Nevada City Railroad. This is from the Marysville Appeal of Tuesday: ‘James O’Brien was in town yesterday. He said he was not able at present to state when a survey would be made for the railroad to Nevada City, but the people of Marysville could be assured that it would be ‘in .operation within the next thirty months.” Will Ask for a Pardon. Edwin Ragon, a young man sent from this city in May, 1885, to serve seven years in State prison for assaulting A. H. Underwood with intent to commit murder, gives fotice in another column that he will petition Governor Waterman for a pardon. Pumping and Hoisting Works Wanted.

Eprror Transcript—As the time approaches for the meeting of the National Republican Committee here in a few days, active movements are being made in Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis and other cities to capture the National Convention, each, of the aspirants asserting peculiar claims for the distinction that will be laid before the Committee by strong local delegations.® The advance guard of the Chicago and Philadelphia delegations are already here, and. quite as much interest is taken in the matter as at any similar period in the history of the party. One thing is very observable: that these men refrain from expressing any personal preference as to candidates, and are not marking the boom of any one. The disposition is every where apparent among Republicans, that the nominee of the convention will be perfectly satisfactory, and that our duty is to see that he is elected. There are no. quarrels now to adjust. United action is the watch word from one end of the line to the other, and with this spirit animating our ranks, we can enter the canvass, whoever may be our standard bearer, with the utmost assurance of success. In talking recently with Senator Spooner, of: Wisconsin, who is not only one of the ablest. men in Congress, but one of the finest orators if the country, he said: ‘This session’ will be a fighting one. The struggle between the two great political parties will bé ‘intense. The question that will beat the fore-front are those of the tariff, the surplus, and finance, which, with the question of freedom of the ballot and honesty of selections, will make enough work to occupy. all of our attention.” The Senator suggested a suspicion that the general acquiescence of the democratic leaders fn Mr. Cleveland’s renomination may have been brought about by the understanding that in due time he will refuse to run a second time. There may be a good deal in this suggestion, and on no other hypothesis ‘can you account for the sudden trans‘formation of several very prominent democrats who were planing severe war on Mr. Cleveland’s administration. As a Republican, I hope. there is nothing in the suggestion, and that he will’ be the regular demccratic nominee. ae One would hardly expect it, yet there are decided differences of perof Government clerks. The Treasury clerks are the least spruce in appearance and most spiritless in manner of all Government employes. The most independent, nonchalant, and cosmopolitan are those of the Interior Department, who look and act as though they were happy and prosperous. The Post Office Department people are a serious folk, and have a crushed aspect. The building is as still asacemetery. A visitor walks into the Interior Department as if he owned it, but when he enters the Post Office Department, he begins to falter and stammer at the very entrance. The Army and Navy clerks are very dressy, rather exclusive, but always polite. The Department of Justice has no special individuality, but the State Department can furnish perfect specimens of the aristocratic genus of clerks. They have little intercourse with clerks of other Departments, and are emphatically ‘‘dudes’’ of the most exquisite kind, aping the foreign representatives and attaches with whom they are brought in contact. The public has little to do with that Department, and are perfectly willing ‘that’ the fine-haired gentlemen shall enjoy their seclusion. _4 The General Land Office has issued 2,400 ‘agricultural patents during the past month, and 700 additional cases are being prepared, of which 500 are for final: homesteads in the Fargo (Dakota) district. Some 1900 other cases are under consideration, and the whole number patented in November will reach nearly 5,000. There is a good deal of talk here about a certain handsome young lady of wealth and social position, allying herself in marriage to a member of the Chinese Legation. It is strange what peculiar whims some of our American girls are possessed of. Secretary of War Endicott is taking official life remarkable easy. He is here but a small portion of the time, and when here never gets excited over Department business. Nearly everything is routine work, and left to Bureau chiefs who are regular Army officers. _ ‘Lord’? Chamberlain, of the Fishery Commission and his suit occupy thirty-seven rooms at the Arlington hotel. pressing the President severely for pouoes. and are after every, official epublican scalp in their respective districts, _ Forry-Ningr. Waste of Tissue ‘Without Repair. Vigor begins to decline when dyspepsia invades the stomach. The diease, prolonged through neglect, entails grievous losses of flesh and serious waste of the muscular tissue. To invigorate thoroughly and s: ily, a sound stomachic is required. There is none comparable to Hoastetter’s Stomach Bitters, since it institutes, and if continued ba tuates a re of the tissues, which have decli: in bulk, vi and elasticity in conseuence of non-assimilation of the food. o time should be lost in beginnin the reparative process, nor shel there be any delay in removing those ailments of frequent occurrences which contribute to and foster an enfeebled condition of the, stomach and nerves, viz: constipation and liver complaint, disorders which the Bitters will assuredly ex ish.

A Powerful Play By a First-Class Com= pany. The performance of ‘Hoodman Blind’? on Tuesday evening by the

Gustavus Levick Company was one of the best theatricat’ entertainments given at this city for a long time past. The drama tells the story of a young farmer who through the duplicity of a supposed friend is deceived into believing that his wife is untrue, while in fact she is the incarnation of purity and fidelity. In the development of the plot the sunlight of truth dispels that which obscures the moral vision of/the hoodwinked husband, and he is Hoodman Blind no longer. As ‘f.'ack Yeulett,’? the farmer, Mr. Levick showed himself to be an actor of great power, and entitled to a place among the very best of the American stage. He possesses a fine physique, a rich and thoroughly cultivated voice, and at times, especially in the more intense passages, reminds one strongly Although , robust in style, his vigor of expression seldom approximates ranting. In the tion with a delicacy that indicates the work of a true artist.He comes of a family of great actors; and ‘the heritage of genius bestowed upon him by his predecessors has not deteriorated in-his hands. He is admirably supported by the company. Miss Alsberg is a charming actress, and appears to excellent advantage in the dual-role of ‘‘Nance Yeulett,’’ the wronged wife, and ‘‘Jess,” the’ outcast. She hasin these an opportunity forthe display of versatility that is taken .full advantage of. Messrs. Page, Franklin and Armstrong in comedy parts provoke much laughter, while Messrs. Richardson and Carroll as the ‘‘villains” who finally meet with deserved retribution are deserving of much praise for the ability they display. The other ladies and gontlemen (there are some sixteen in all) are far above the average support ordinarily accorded in the more pretentious of combinations to be seen outside of the large cities. Mr. Levick and his company have established themselves: here as great favorites. Did Dorsey Steal Ht? The San. Francisco Examiner of Tuesday says: “Sheriff Gardner of Marin county: reported at the office of Chief Crowley yesterday that a boat belonging to the Patent Brick Company, whose yard is near San Quentin, had been stolen last Sunday night, and that the supposed thieves were Dorsey and Shinn,-the escaped convicts. The neighborhoood has many good hiding places, and it is thought that the escapes kept themselves concealed until the excitement blew over and then: stole the boat to get away from the vicinity of the prison. They. may ‘have gone to Contra Costa county or come to this side. The latter course being the safest for them they, took it, it is thought.” f Of Its Base. The Tidings says: The Nevada City Methodist Sunday School have,a Christmas tree and the the cantata of ‘‘Kriss Kringle” on Wednesday evening, December 28th. That’s behind time and teaches children that sacred things can be post-poned and still be sufficient. The Tidings is muddled. The Transcrirr stated plainly that the Christmas tree exercises: would take place Christmas Eve and the cantata on the following Wednesday evening: The Tidings can let the sermon stand as written but it should retract’the erroneous text. Facts Worth Knowing. In all diseases of the nasal mucous membrane: the remedy used must be non-irritating. The medical profession has been slow to learn this. Nothing satisfactory can be accomplished with douches, snuffs, powders, syringes, astringents, or any simular application, because they are all irritating,do not thoroughly reach the affected surfaces and should be abandoned as worse than failures.

Francisco Hotel Gazette says: ‘The Native Sons of the Golden West will assist in the prosecution of the assassin of their beloved comrade, Ralph Sydney Smith, the young editor of the Redwood Times and Gazette. The article ‘in, his paper which called out the murderous attack, is generally pronounced by no stretch of pleading to be made to appear an adequate provocation to the vengeful attack of the assassin. From appearances, the latter will meet a just award. at the hands of judge and jury ; and thé people are fortunate that California has a governor who has locked up the pardoning power where no one but-himself can get at it, and has forgotten where he put the key.” Masonic Election. The following were elected Tuesday evening as officers for the ensuing year of Madison Lodge, No. 23, F. and A. M., at Grass Valley: Thos. J. Michell, W. M.; I.Stein, S: Wi; W. E, Deamer, J. W.; E.
