Report Says of Them.
The following is from the State Mineralogisi’s report for 1888:
The quartz mining in thd vicinity of
Nevada City has, for the past year or
more, suffered some depression, a condition of things due to the impoverishment of ore in certain mines, and a.
partial. exhaustion of-ore bodies in
others. Recently operations in some
of these mines have heen resumed,
there_being also an increased amount
of work done on others’ not yet so
much developed. That the improvmen’ noticeable in the situation here
will be permanent, there is good reason to believe. :

Attempted Assassination.

Thursday afternoon as Henry Beckman, Sr., was going afoot to Gold Flat
after his wife who had been spending
the day with her parents ‘there, and
had reached the first curve in the railweighing two pounds or more was
thrown from the bank above and nar‘rowly missed him. He glanced up to
see where it came from when another
came in dangerous proximity to him.
He made a dash for the locality where
they came’ from, but.when he got
there nobody was 'te-te seen. He
hunted arotind in the grove for some
time, but gould not find the fellow
who had fled immediately upon throwing the second stone. He-has astrong
“suspicion as to who the would-be assassin is,
Guilty as Charged.
The jury in the case of William Dunstan, charged with grand larceny, retired at 5:35 o’clock Thursday evening. At12:10 Friday morning they
returned a verdict of guilty as charged.
The penalty is from one -te fourteen
years in the State Prison. One night
last November Dunstan was detected
in the act of robbing the sluices of the
Idaho quartz mine at Grass Valley.
He had gathered between $6 and $7
worth of sulphurets and put them in
@ canvass sack which he laid on an
amalgamating table. It had long been
suspected that he was engaged in such
pilfering. ~ Under the law the stealing
of any gold from a mining sluice is
grand larceny. Dunstan is said to
have a wife in England.
To be Photographed.
Artist Schramm is arranging to photograph the interior of Armory Hall
during the progress of the Pythiane’
souvenir ball on Tuesday evening next.
The picture will be made while Mountain Division of the Uniform. Rank is . being reviewed by Lieutenant-Colonel Shoecraft. The gas-lights will be
momentarily extinguished and the
view will be obtained bythe aid of a
flashlight produced with magnesium
fired by an electric battery. The superb
decorations, beautiful ladies, brave
men, uniformed Knights and other attractions will conspire to make a
magnificent picture. :
A Streng Company.
George F. Mothersole, business manager of the Georgie Woodthorpe Dramatic Company, was. in town Friday.
The Company will appear at Grass
Valley Monday night, and may perform at this city the latter part of the
week,
Enlarging Armory Hall.
The members of Company C are
talking of enlarging the parlor at the
rear of Armory Hall so it will extend
the full width of the building. This
will be a splendid improvement.

feet; giving a total vertical depth of
about one hundred and .twenty. feet.
The hanging wall is granite, the footwall slate. ‘There is so little water

Eprror TranscriptT—Since a bill
was this week pending in the Legislature to move the Home for the Feeble-Minded Children to a more
healthful location, I offer the following in support of the claims of the
foot-hills and of Nevada*City in particular for the location of this and
other public institutions.
Committees in selecting a site for
any public institution, especially for
the ‘unfortunate sick, should have a
Sanitarium continually in view. They
should not be moved by any pressure
brought to bear. with a view to boom. ing any town for mercenary gain derived from its supply. On the contary,
drainage and freedom from malaria
are all important factors in their location.
I remember about six years ago,
when the insane of the State of Nevada
were-removed from the Stockton Asylum where they had been confined in
that enervating, malarious climate, to
the building erected at Reno by that
State. The inmates were sickly, emaciated and cadaverous, reminding one
of a battalion of exchanged priseners
from the Andersonville prison pens so
pitiable were their conditioa. After a
few months residence in Reno’s
healthful climate they were-with few
So marked was the change that it was
a matter of comment among all who
saw them.at the time oftheir arrival,
and the citizens congratulated themselves on their timely humanity.
No institution_for the sick, especially for the treatment of mental diseases,
should be located in a hot, malarious
climate when a better one can possibly
be found. If we have not as good a
climate, with equal sanitary surroundings in our State, it would not be a
bad public policy to locate our health
institutions even over in the State of
Nevada. —

Lautfel Parior’s Reception to
Manzanita Parlor.
At Thursday evening’s meeting of

There were in attendance as the invited guests of Laurel Parlor twenty

After the business of the evening
had been transacted the four-score of
fair ones adjourned to the banquet
hall of Pythian Castle where for the
next two hours, which did not end
till after midnight, they fested upon
one of the best-appointed suppers ever
served here atafraternal gathering.
The tables were not only elaborately
set with silverware and fine glassware
garnished with a profusion of choice
flowers, but. there was an abundance
of the best of everything to eat from
the tenderest of chicken to the richest
of ices and choicest of fruits. With
the banquet there were toasts and
songs, and the exercises—which were
gracefully presided over by Miss Grace
Morgan, President of the Laurelites—
were more than good. The program
of toasts, sentiments and music was
jas follows:
