WEDNESDAY, FEB. 13, 1889. Care of the Ballots. Prof. E. Muller, foreman ofthe late Grand Jury, said to the Transonipr reporter Tuesday morning that» any statements as to the Boston Ravine ballots not being carefully guarded by the Jury while the investigation was in progress, are not well founded. The first night they were placed under lock and key in the vault of the Recorder’s office, and censtable Dillon remained in charge of them. On subsequent nights they were locked in the County Treasurer’s vault. Each noon the box containing them was locked and also sealed with-4he foreman’s. signature in such a manner that had any person tampered with the lock it would have been apparent, The box was then placed in the Recorder’s office under guard of either Mr. Brady or his. son. One of the first things the Grand Jury did upon meeting was to make a complete tally of all the tickets, so that had any change been made in them later it would have been discovered. The Pythian Anniversary. The arrangements for the silver anniversary celebration to be held next Tuesday evening at Armory Hall under the auspices of Milo Lodge, K. of P., are now abvut complete. F. D. Worth, the well-known’ decorative artist, will arrive Sunday from San Francisco and at once begin with a corps of arlisans the work of. beautifying the interior of tbe Hall. The decorations will, it is expected, be the finest ever seen in Gentral California. The ladies and gentlemen who are to participate with the orchestra in the promenade concert that precedes-the ball “are actively engaged in rehearsing. The lithographers send word that the elegant and expensive souvenir programs that are to be distributed “among the dancers are nearly finished and will be sent this week. ‘Died of Pneumonia. At half past ten o’clock Mon/lay night Jamés Daniel, who had ‘been ill for eleven days with pneumonia, died at his home on Piety Hill in this city. He was a naiive of England and had resided here for the past twelve years. He was an industrious, reliable man . and a good citizen, being employed when stricken down in tke North Star mine of Grass Vai/ley. He leaves a widow and two young children. The funeral will take place from the Methodist Church at three o’clock Wednesday aiternoon under the auspices of the Masons, (he Knights Templar and . The New Eureka. Good progress is being made in the development of Messis. Walrath, Skinker & Co.’s New Eureka quartz Claim just this side of Grass Valley. several stringers of rich ore have been encountered. The vein-fissure is wide and clearly defined. The New Eureka is just west of the famoiis Crown Point, and gives every indication of proving itself to be one of the most productive mines in that district where millions of dollars have been extracted by the Idaho, Old Eureka and other companies. : ® The First Street Lamp. Wni. H. Crawiord recalls the fact that the-first sireet lamp maintained by the city was the one on the Plaza at the foot of Sacramento street, which was-put-up.in-the Fall of 1862 or the Spring of 1863 when he was a member of the Board of Trustees along with J. C. Abbott, the late Jonathan Clark and other old-timers. His fellow-members claimed that they voted in favor of the lamp for the special benefit of Mr. Crawford who frequently went out Sacramento street of nights to call on the.lady whom he subsequently wedded. On T wo Charges. Consiable Dillon went to Grass Valley Tuesday and arrested James Rodda on two charges. Funeral Mary claims that he slap,ed her and she wants to prosecute him for battery, Mrs. , Phillips alleges that he broke in a door at her lodging house, and she filed a complaint of malicious mischief against him.

Latest Political Gossip from the Seat of Government. Wasninaton, Feb. 7th, 1889, Epiror Transcrrpt—Senator Sherman, who knows the cares and _ per; plexities of being Secretary of the Treasury, warmly congratulates Senator Allison on his escape when the fact became known that Mr. Allison had written to Gen. Harrison positively and finally declining the appointment. “Nearly every Republican Senator advised Mr. Allison not to go into the cabinet, some for one reason and some for another, but the majority of them feel that the Towa Senator can do more good on the floor of the Senate than he could in the Treasury Department. Evidently Seeretary or PostmasterGeneral (whichever it may be) Wana. . maker proposes tu hold up his end of the coming administration. It is said that he has purehased for $80,000 the, elegant residence in this city pow oc. cupied by Secretary Whitney. Senator Ingalls says he will\be glad to turn the gavel over to Vice-President-elect Morton on the fourth of March and resume his old place on the floor of the Senafe. And most other Republicans will join him in his gladness. Not because he has not made a good presiding officer, but because he is more useful and decidedly more interesting on the floor. Tt is stated here that Representative Springer is willing to accept the Senate amendment to his: omnibus bill. The amendments exclude New Mexico. If Mr. Springer can carry any considerable number of Democrats The Democratic members of the House Ways and Means Comaatitee asd-hard at work on a compromise tariff vill which they will endeavor to get the Senate confreres to agree {o. It will embrace the entire free list of the Senate bill and the internal revenue section, except free alcohol for use in the arts. It will also embrace those portions of the Mills bill over which there was little or no cortroversy. But from the best information your correspondent can-get, it-is now to late to get any tariff legislation through the present Congress, more’s the pity. Once more this poor administration has been sat down upon, and members of its own party have helped to do it. The British éxtradition treaty, which Mr. Bayard was so: anxious. to huve adopted, has been rejected by more than a two-third vote. of the Senate. John Bull seems to have lost his influence in this country. Sensational newspaper articles sometimes serve a good purpose. We have just had a siciking example in the Samoan excitement. The newspaper articles aroused Congress and the people of the country, and the sentiments generally expressed by all classes and in all sections proved to Prince Bismarck that the’ United States would fight if necessary to maintain the hon-. or and rights of its-citizens in Samoa. The result was: Bismarck ‘cabled to the German minister in this city instructing him to see Secretary Bayard and assure him that Germany would do nothing detrimenial to our interests, and also that orders had been sent to the German officials in Samoa to be more discreet. So much for sensational newspapers. At last, after many ups and. downs, ‘the Oklahoma bill has gotten through the House all right. It now goes to the Senate, where its friends propose making a mighty effort to rush it through. There isa rumor here that Cleveland has-promised-to veto it if-it gets through the Senate. Representative McKinley, who has been mentioned as likely to be Secretary of the Treasury, says he is not an applicant nor would he accept the position if offered him, The House commitiee on territories were to have decided Saturday whether they would report the billfor the admission of Utah, as instructed by a recent Democratic caucus, also what they would do about Springer’s “omnibus” bi!l forthe admission of Arizona, Idaho, and Wyoming. The committee held no meeting Saturday, but say -they will meet Wednesday. The members seem to be a little dubious aboutthis Utuh business. There is no prospect of the billeven passing the House, should it be reported, still I think some of the members of the committee do not care to ‘put’ tiiemselves.on record even to the extent of reporting the bill. Mormonism is not very popular outside of Utah, Senator Blair’s bill giving the noble women who acted as army nurses during the war a pension of $25a month, has been passed ly the Senate and favorably reported tothe House. The American Shipping League, which held its annuat convention here last week, is an organization from which much is expected; its aim is to. foster and increase American shipping. A public meeting was held Friday night at which a number of prominent men belonging to both polical parties gave their views as to what is necessary to restore the stpremacy of the rs and stripes on the seas. . bat The aising of Two-Lips Is abranch of floriculture in which maidens and youths~sumetimes indulge.

A Valuable Quicksilver Claim in Trinity County. county, owns a valuable quicksilver mine in Trinity county. It is called the Altoona and is situated on the westerly slope of the Trinity mountains in the eastern part of the county, at arr altitude of 4750 feet above.seu level, being about 15.miles distant in a westerly direction from: Southern’s station on the California’ & Oregon railroad. The Mining Press says of it: Tt occupies a section of a cinnabarbearing belt that here strikes north and south along the mountain. This belt, which is composed of porphyry, traversed by occasional dykes. of serpentine, has an average width of 1200 feet, and carries a yreat number of cinnabar veins; these veins, which vary in thickness from a few inches to 25 feet, correspond in strike with the trend of the main mineral belt. The mining — operations hitherto conducted here have been by sluicing. The ore being soit and decomposed, yielded to the shovel without the labor of blasting and. picking, the mineral it contained being collected after the manner of placer gold washing. The ore so collected, after being mixed with linve, has been reduced by the slow, costly and wasteful method of retorting in ordinary retorts. How large a percentage of the ore was Jost by the plan of gathering it here pursued is shown by the fact that tke tailings -that escaped from these sluices.bave since been collected and concentrated over and over with profit. = Only from one of the veins belonging to the Zellerbach property has any ore been removed, the stoped portion of the vein having adepth of 100 by a length of 400 feet, the width of the vein at this point averaging from 4 to 25 feet. The ore taken out curried about three per cent quicksilver, and but for the imperfect manner of the treatment adopted would doubless have yielded a ‘larger percentage of metal than was obtained f,om it. Besides some —surface— prospecting and asbait sunk on one of the numertical shait has been put down on the principal vein toa depth of 120 feet, this shaft being connected at the boitom with a drain tannel. We are imformed that in every instance the prospeciing work dune here-lbas developed high-grade ore. In the vein opened up by the 47 foot shait, it is svid there occuis iul!y one foot of ore. What is reqaived to bring this properry into a large and profitable’ produciion is the erection of a suitable plant, to include roasiing “farnace, steam hoisting works, etc, and the further development of the principal ore bodies already opened up, exploration being al.ersard kept well in advance of ore extraction, The ewners are of ‘the opinion that with a very moderate’ outlay for equipment a monthly production of 60) flasks of quicksilver could be made here.‘This amount could, be inereaved by the, erection of additional {m1 naces, and at a less cost than would be required in most other localities, there being an abundance of*finetimber on the gound with waier enougi for motivepower a good po tion of the year. Mr. Zellerbach, who got possession of tae properiy last August, has with limited means at his command since vetimbered the shait and had 100,000 brick burnt for the erection of a furnace, besides making various minor improvements on the mine, which, in other lespecis, remains in about the same, condition~as—when—werk— was suspended upon it eight years ago. New York Hill. The Union says: Joseph Snyder, the well know. mining ‘maa, has about c mpleted arrangements to take the New York Hill mine. There are 50,000 shares--besides--10;000 shares (in treasury) and Mr. Spyder is getting a bond upon the stock payable in 60 days at the rate of 40 venis pershare, which amounts to $16,000 for the mine. The stock is to be deposited in the National Bank at Grass Valley, and unle s the 40 cents per share is paid at the end of 60 days the stcck will be refunded. Mr. Snyder is acting as agent-for well known capitalists, as we understand, andthey have great faith in their venture, ate RT A 5 Fresh Crauberries At A.

A Mine that Produces This Metal and Gold. % , Just back of the worked out portion ofthe Milton Mining and Water Company’s claim at French Corral, and upon the side of the mountain, isa mine which will at some future time yield a nice harvest to its owners. This mine is known asthé Red Ledve. For many years the ore from. this mine was worked for the gold-which it contained, although the’fact that it was very rich in copper was well known. The percentage of copper, however, increased tosuch an extent as to make the ore rebellious, and its owner, Daniel Roberts, of French Corral, found it no longer valuable as a gold producer unless it could’ be worked. on a more elaborate plan. Mr. Roberts had not the capital for the erection of extensive milling machinery; neither had he the means necessary to work the ore for the copper which. it-contained, No effort has been»made to secure the attention of capitalist to this mine, as Mr. Roberts hoped for a change in his fortunes which would enable him to work the mine himself. Now, however, he is willing to dispose of all or a part of the mine at’ a very reasonable_rate, and if he.succeeds-in—so doing the result will be a great deal of life and activity in the now quiet little town and a fortune to those who take hold of the mine arid treat the ore for the copperthat isin it. The body of ore lying in the earth at this mine is comparatively unlimited, and, owing to the work already done, is easily extracted. There is a tiamway from the mine to the mill used for crushing the ore, and nature seems to have placed“ this—valuable ‘property in the most advan‘ageous position, Water power is abundant; material tor large milling works can easily be conveyed to the desired point. The ore itself is’ a red formation, unlike most copper ores, and is soft and easily reduced,’ the percentage in’ cepper giving: vs high as .96. If this mine -is ever worked for copper, by ihe bleaching process, it will pay even better than the Spenceville mines of this county, ous veins toa depth of 47 feet, a_ver-. and itis tobe hoped that capitatists will be found who will take hold of and erect works for the extracting of this metal. As there are several parties traveling about the country looking for copper mines they should he advised to visit this county and inspect its resources in this line. Special atfention should be given to the fact that the copper mines of Nevada county do not lie in inaccessible places, buat in spots where the natural geography of the county renders the cost of developement. comparatively small and the profits large, : re Spenceviile ltems. The appended items are from the Four Corners: Messrs, Woehler & Pietzsch have started up their hoisting works egain, ‘ : Several parties from Grass Valley who are interesied in mining were here this week inspecting some mining property near Spenceville. Spenceville has the mines, and all that is needed is capital to develope them. Mr. C. C. Bitner has resumed work on his tunnel in the Champion mine. The developments are encouaging and the indications seem to be that this will be oneof the best mines in western Nevada couniy. rf Woehler & Pietzsch have finished detting out a 5-acre orchard, If that proves successiul a large vineyard and orchard will be set out next season. ‘The Chill Blast That sets the naked branches quivering, is not felt by the wealthy valetudinarian indoors, ‘but not all the covering that,can “be piled on his warm bed, nor all the furnace heat that anthracite can furnish, will warm his marrow when chills and fever runs its icy fingers along his spinal column.

Use of the Various Subtle Agents—Why Each Woman Should Keep Her Partioular Brand—Reolpe for Treating Natural Flowers. The refinements of the ancients varied in almost every way from those of a modern age, except, perhaps, in some of the uses appertaining tothe toilet, and the Scriptures, as well as other records of ancient customs, bear testimony that baths and clean linen, perfumes and sweet odors, wore regarded quite as much of a luxury then as now. Few are, perhaps, aware that the origin of the use of. manufactured perfumes had a sacred character, yet they were an invention of the priests who officiated at tho sacrificial altars in. the olden temples; and, doubtless, great necessity must have been the mother of invention, for from the slaughtored beasts must have arisen most noxious emanations, which all the water in the land would not have washed clean without the aid of the perfumes of Arabia. wt Opinions, says a writer in the Chicago eine Herald, differ about the use and abuse of sweet scents, Certainly there is an incongruity in their use: by men, but a woman who leaves behivd her a subtle senso of redolence carrivs always a double charm. Strong, active, energetic natures are apt to scorn an indulgence in what is so grateful to their opposites—languid, luxury-loving people. Yet the natural odor of flowers about the house are grateful to all for their sweetness, as well as for their beauty, and to those flowers to which Mother Earth has refused a fragrance we give but half the caro which is showered upon those that can gratify a double sense, To some poor unfortunates tho scent of certain odors, and even of flowers, is distasteful, and not always fromassociation, Evon further than that, the disliked odors render some persons quite ill, With age the sense of smell is affected and, like the other senses, grows weak, and some eldorly ladies, especially — those who have been beautiful, worldly women, much ‘flattered and admired, absolutely reck with. the strong bouquet of . some perfumery. : ‘ Their’ unconsciousness {s_ pitiable, their vanity deplorable, for it would wound them too’greatly to suggest a léssoning of their indulgence, and they must be allowed to reok on. Tho olfactory nerves are capricious things, and the aroma which makes them dilate with pleasure at ono time ia quite disagreeable at another. They easily become surfeited with an overdose, ' A gentleman who was particularly fond of the fragrance of the violet, both “au naturel’ and artificial, and used a delicate scent about hia person and clothing in all_— possible ways, never permitting it to pass a faint, subtio.point, grew to abhor it utterly becauso his negro butler had evidently the same propensity, which he gratified not only by induiging constantly in his master’s essences, but in stron rer and loss carefully prepared extracts of his own, Especially was it discovered to be his habit to scatter violet water all over his clothing just as ha was proparing to serve dinner, and when he took up his place behind his master’s chair the odor was overpowering. As a consequence the gentleman becomes quite ill at only standing near a lady who wears violcta. Another gentleman who was de-: voted to a certain’ old-fashioned prepara. tion of lavender was affected in much the same manner by the accidental breaking of alurge bottle in his trunk and the consequéent saturation of his clothing with the atrong perfumo, which it was imposatole to remove. Since then any scent is distaste. ful to him, q Women generally have a habit of tucking’ little bags of ‘sachet powder in their bureau drawers aud pinning then in-their dresses, but they as generally are indiscriminate in choosing the odors, sometimes buying heliotrope, sometimes violet and again rose. There is much more refinement and daintiness of feeling, beside a quaint and certainly sweet coquetry ln keeping always a perfume of one's own; it becomes then almost @ part.of one’s own being. If one is fond of the fragrance of the rose an investment in a few of the long, peculiar vials containing attar of rosea and keeping them in various places amid tho possessions is a much more enduring way of perfuming than using sachet powder, However, the best way of using sachet powder is to make a thin pad the size of each bureau drawer and trunk tray, of thin sills or Gotton’and one layer of cotton wadding, over which the sachet powder is sprinkled, leaving one end but loosely sewn, 80 that the scent may be easily renewed, The faint-tinted cheese-. cloths which come now are very good for this purpose, If adozen of these pads are made at some leisure time the size of one’s trunk they, will be found extremely convenient to lay between dresses, It is alsoa good plan when anew dress comes home to have a tiny bag of scent at once sewn into . the waist. New beginners at concocting the potpourri for the rose-jars are-aptto_use too much spice; essential oils ara much better than any spices, * Our grandmothers well knew the delight of stealing the perfume from the flowers, and their ‘“ still-room,’’ where were all conveniences for this, was a part of the machinery of every home. In our country vast quantities of flowers go to waste and we send to France for our perfumes, yet nothing is easier nor more womanly than to y make the perfumes from flowers which we use. Intoa large, flat, clean earthenware vessel]-pour some purified fat lard and suet mixed, warmed sufficiently to make it liquid. Throw into it as many scented flowers of one kind as ft will contain, Let remain twenty-four hours covered, then strain off the fat and add more flowers, repeating the process every day for a week. The methodof liberating this essence of flowers from the fat is very simple. Permit it to harden, cutit into small cubes and put into spirits of wine. The delicate odor inmediately transfers itself from the coarse fut to the Bpwituous solvent, and such a strength of perfume is procured with little trouble ag would cost a great deal at a perfumer’s, 4 . Home Striking Gontrastes ~~ * An English lady living temporarily in the United Htates notices thut the house servants doa deal more work here than in the old country; yet that Gur servants are relieved of some work thatis necessary there—the taking of hot and cold water to sleepingroonys in some houses, and the care of a tire . Inevery room by reason of no furnace in the cellar, She insists upon the superiority of stoves. here over fire-places. in England in cold weather, and says that the kitchen stove here burns much less coal than it does there, The use of bituminous coal in England is one cause of some of these troubles. The independence of the domestic servants in America is another noticeable fact, as might be expected in a democratic country, As a sample of the greater conveniences here, the carpet sweeper is mentioned, with its dustless work, in place of a broom, which is solely used in England, ,, Knowledge and Pileasufe. Pleasure is ‘a shadow, but knowledge is ecstatic in ehjoyment, perennial in fame, unlimited in space, and infinite in duration. In the performance of its yreat offices it fears no danger, spares no expense, looks into the volcano, dives into the ocean, per‘forates the earth, wings its flight into the skies, enriches the globe, explores sea and land, contemplates the distant, examines the minute, comprehends the great, ascends to the sublime—no place too remote for its grasp, no sphere too exalted for ite reach. 3 Points of a Perfect Oyster, The points of an oyster are, first, the shape, which should resemble the petai of a rose leaf. Next, the thickness of the shell; ‘a thoroughbred should have a shell. like thin china. It should also possess an almost metallic ring and peculiar: opalescent—luster on the inner side, The hollow for the animal should resemble an egg cup, and the flesh should be firm, white butlike,
