NEVADA TRANSCRIPT DECEMBER 19, 22 -24, 1865 611
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1865
A GOOD IDEA.—It has been ordered at Moscow that in all public buildings the doors of the main
entrances shall open outwards instead of, as hitherto, inwards. The reason of this arrangement is to enable
people to have free egress in the event of any accident or panic occurring
THE ORPHAN ASYLUM.—The ladies of Grass Valley have exhibited commendable energy in
their efforts to build a house for orphans, at Grass Valley, and they should be aided liberally in the good
work. On the 28th, 29th and 30th days of the present month, a fair will be held at Grass Valley for the
purpose of raising money to complete the edifice. The fair will be held at Hamilton Hall, and will be open
for visitors each day. The price of admission will be fifty cents.
DISTRICT COURT, Monday, Dec. 18.—Aubens vs Aubens. Judgment for Plaintiff.

commissioned by Governor Low. Captain, H. G. Rollins; First Lieutenant, J. H. Hickey; Senior Second

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1865
CHINESE DINNER.—Several citizens of this place were, a la Colfax, invited to a Chinese dinner,
by one of the merchant princes of Commercial street, on Thursday last. Of course they accepted, and
were on hand at the appointed time. The tables would have been creditable to the best hotel. Many choice
dishes, according to American taste, as well as the most delicious Chinese viands were provided in
profusion. The dinner was given by Hee Kee, and his guests speak of it as one of the best meals they ever
sat down, to “make way with.”
AFTER CHICKENS.—We learn that several shots were fired at a Chinese chicken thief a few nights
since by a citizen of this place. John made a hasty retreat without a chicken.
ROUGH ROADS.—Those who have had occasion to go to Sacramento, report the roads
exceedingly rough between Grass Valley and Colfax.
