oS 4 —e FRENCH CORRAL ITEMS FRENCH CORRAL, Sept. 28, (Special to The Nugget——Dryness still prevails. The weather extremely cold for this time of the year. Jack, Frost is prowling nightly, but he finds nothing but dried up gardens and can do no harm, A good rain would be so welcome even if it did spoil grapes and figs. We have made ready for the’ shower several times but were doomed to disappointment. A stranger called lest evening and asked, “What's the show to get a httle water?’’ When we pointed out the well, -he seemed surprised. He was judging from the appearance of things. Miss Louise Moulton brought her pupils from North Bloomfield Friday, all returned to North BloomBridgeport resort. After a happy day, all eturned to North Bloomfield in the evening. W. P. Clerkin and Harry Browning came down from Pike City Friday. W. E. Moulton made his. usual business trip to Marysville Saturday. ‘ J. Swazey came down from the Siberia Mine Saturday evening. Albert Murphy and Owen Rodgers came down from Montezuma Hill Saturday and _ visited relatives in French Corral. ‘They. come to Montezuma Hill every year to enjoy a deer hunt and the treat of a change from city life. Miss Frances. Moulton came. from Sacramento Saturday evening and returned to that place Sunday. Rey. Fr. O’ Reilly held service in the Catholic church at Birchville Sunday. He was’ accompanied by Clement Orgen.of Nevada City. Bill was a Sunday visitor. Mr S. Wood and little ot Sweetland and Mr. and Mrs. Shipler and four children formed a camping party and visited I'rench Corral Sunday. Under McCuliough Mrs. F. son,. Carl, and the roadside pines are ideal spots for picnicking. Mr. Wood .has been working in Alleghany. Bill Hatch of Nevada City visited the family of A. Browning, Sunday. Geo. Pantages. of the Roseville Meat Market made a trip to this section Monday. Richard Hadenbrook, who has been employed in Oakland, returned to Irrench Corral Monday, where his mother is now living with her brother, Thos. Meyers. Clyde Browning made a business trip to Nevada City Monday. Calvin Meyers) and sister, Mrs. Mabel Mernick of Oakland, visited their father, Thos. Meyers, Monday and Tuesday. They were accompanied by Mr. and ° Mrs. Joe Keating and Mrs. Small; A, Browning and sons are engaged in cleaning up the wreck of. an old barn on the Chas. French place. This recalls an incident of »“ihe good old. days’. This big barn was built in 1877 and after the big timbers were framed and put together the men of the neighborhood enjoyed the jollification of a raising’. When the biulding finished the late Chas. D. ‘‘barn was French and E. Griffith, two dashing’ bachelors of the community conceived the idea of giving a free dance. Ivery one was. invited, and the elite of the Ridge was in attendance Musie was furnished by German’s String Band,—the best to be had at that’ time and at midnight a delicious supper was served, It was a beautiful moonlight night, (will say here, French Corral moonlight was -always the most beautiful), and the supper was. served out of doors. Blectrie lights were not in use then and lanterns were hung in the surrounding It was a grand affair and thoroughly enjoyed by all in attendance and is ever a happy oaks. memory. Harry and Clyde Browning went to Cornish . Meadows Tuesday. Clyde returned Tuesday evening. Richard Hadenbrook and mother and siter-made a trip to Grass Valley Wednesday. Mr, and Mrs. W. E. Moulton visited friends in Sebatopol Thursday. We were sorry. to learn of the death of Jeff Carter and extend sympathy to the members of his family. So many of our old Ridgites are passing to the Great Beyond. By an oversight, we regret that we omitted mention of the death of Roland Gardner of Alleghany, in last week’s items. As a member of the Alleghany band he. became known to us in playing for our dances. Many hearts were filled with sorrow over the news. of his un timely death .By his happy ‘genial maner he made friends of all. On every hand was heard the expression, ‘‘Poor Sparkis.”’ for he was beloved by all, Our deepest sympathy THE NEVADA CITY NUGGE1, CALIFORNIA ___LE “AL NOTICE ORE BUYER'S APPLICATION In compliance with Section 2, Chapter 70, Statutes of 1925, approved April 15, 1925, amended 1927, 1929, the undersigned, whose principal place of business is at Nevada City, California, hereby gives notice that application has been made tothe State.

A HARD LUCK TALE The’ following from. the Ukiah Republican Press is about the limit for tough luck: A San Francisco man, who gave his name as D. J Smith, is convinceed he was the victim of a ‘‘jinx’”’ last week while ‘on a hunting trip to Mendocino county. : Can You Beat It The morning of his arrival in the deer country the trouble started when his eyeglasses, kept in a leather case in’ a vest pocket, fell into the campfire while Mr. Smith was leaning over the coals preparing breakfast. Before he could rescue the glasses they were. badly smoked from the burning leather. Being unable to see long distances without them he was disconsolate until a companion suggested he try baking soda, which was’ plentiful in camp, to polish away the smoke stain, Worked Too Fast Over-zealous in his efforts, the glasses snapped in the pressure of his fingers and chewing gum was resorted to to hold the glasses together’ while he made a hasty departure,for this city to consult an optician, Enoute here Mnday he stopped at a_ spring for a cooling drink of water and while bending over, in the act of drinking his false teeth fell from his mouth and were broken on a rock. That's Not Half of It Hot and discouraged the ‘‘jinx’”’ victim decided to take a dip in the flowing water of Cold creek, attractively alluring from the Ukiah-Tahoe highway over which he was traveling. No sooner had he submerged his tired body than a state highway crew, working above him, turned loose the contents of a steam hovel, which almost smothered him in the debris. The last and crowning blow of all. came when the startled man opened his eyes to see’ four rattlesnakes angrily emerging from the loose dirt and rock and moving menacing in his direction; — His. cries brought the road crew to his assistance and the reptiles were dispatched and Mr. Smith lost no time in getting into town to have the damages to his glasses and teeth repaired. Lawrence E. Calanan of near San Juan visited in Nevada City recently. Mrs. Mary E. Campbell of North Columbia visited in this city. Peter Jonson of Moores Flat was a recent Nevada City visitor.
