ee ost DT OR SESE IE 6: Ra esa ARR, 4 ‘‘ THURSDAY, JAN. 31, 1889. “Watts Ne soup in Hie. Since the weather got wintry the Tidings man has soured on beer and taken to more solid beverages such as hot lemonade, beef tea and’ the like. Now that he yearns not for the effervescing juice of malt; helooks down upon the struggling masses that take it all the year around, with no postponement on account of weather, and fires this shot at them: ‘‘Nevada City has a manw ho sells a glass of beer. and a plate of soup all for five cents. Now that is making sustenance entirely too cheap, That cheapness is why Nevada City does not rustle more around among her good'mines. It is human nature, especially in such a climate as prevails in these hills,-to not york when. a living can be bad without work. Down in the tropics the natives are lazy and they are right in being that way. Down there a yard of sugar cane and a plantain or a bananaa dayis eneugh to'support a man, and these.can be had by. the. native without-exerting himeelf. Tliere being no necessity for labor the tropic man does not labor. A Neva.la City man with a plate of soup and mug of beer both nourishing his insides, and ull for five cents, must be lazy, A lazy populotion will leave atown ‘in the soup’ every time, Things can he too cheap, sometimes,” A Fine Pertormance. eel : . The Wade-Leroyle entertainment at the Theatre Tuesday evening was almost an entire change from that given »Monday night.” The songs, jokes, satires and characterizations were mostly new. Among those in the audience were meny_first-nighters, and these same were the leaders of the applause and laughter which were liberally bestowed but not without judgment or justice. The merits of Miss Wade and Mr. Leroyleas.actors have heretofore been dwelt npon -at_Jength by the Transcrirr, and the character and quality of their specialties have been enumerated; but at no time has there been bestowed upon them or their entertainment any word of commendation which was not fully warranted. Miss Wade is much more artistic in her renditions than Kate Cantleton, and she is the most versatile lady who has appeared. before the footlights here. Mr. Leroyle excels as an Trish comedian and in burlesque. There is nota dull momentin their entire evening’s entertainment, everything going with a vim and smoothness that is captivating, It can he said with truth that a better or more pleasing performance has. never been given here at the prices named, Another New Mintag Company. The Baltic. Consolidated Mining Company have filed articlea of incorporation for the purpose of extracting gold and silver ores from the Crown Point, Hope and Shirley mines, in the Eureka Mining District, Nevada county, The capital stock is $100,000 of which $50,000 has been subscribed. The Directors are W. E. Brown, W. B. Sanfley, J. W. Pearson, F. W. A. Cunningham and OC. H. King. An Eminent Expert. Henry C. Hyde, 'the leading: California expert on penmanship, is expected to arrive here Thuraday morning from San Francisco in response to a@ summonsofthe Grand Jury. Mr. Hyde will be asked to give his opinion asto the handwriting in which the names of Messrs. Lord and Rapp are written on certain of the Boston Ravine ballots. A Destructive Fire, At Niles, Ohio, on the 18th instant the works of the Thomas Furnace Compady were destroyed by fire. The loss is about $20,000 and 100 men are thrown out of empleyment till the furnace cati be rebuilt. John R. Thomas, the manager of the property, was here last month. with his wifeon a. visit to the latter’s brother, John T,.Morgan., Nevada County on Top. * The wrestling match between Jac Carkeek, of this county, champion in the Cornish style of wrestling,and Tom Connors, of England, champion of the world in the catch-as-catch-can style, took place Monday night at Milwaukee, and was won by Carkeek, owing to his superior strength, hetaking the first, second and fourth rounds. 4 The Same Old Story. The.samne old ‘story is heard again, this time ‘from Grass Valley. There is the trusting maiden, the perfidious young man, the incensed father, the ‘heart-burning, and all those terrible belongings of such tales which so long as humanity survives will be'told over and over as if each time anew. ‘Will Start Monday. — The company operating the Coe mine will begin operations about next Monday. Captain White is saperintendent and Marshal Reynolds under1 Was troubled with an eruption on y face, which was a soure of constant Gaels when . wished to appear . . 40 Adams st., Lowell, Mase, os 4 with Pushing the Development of This Vaiuabie Mine. Thirty men were set at work Wednesday in the Washington mine. The main tunnel, now in the mountain 1,000 feet on the ledge, is to be pushed ahead 500 feet further to develop new chutes. The main shaft, 130 feet in on this tunnel, is already down 160 feet with a level in 360 feet on a fourfoot ledge. This is to be pushed ahead and the shaft will be sunk for two more levels at distances of 100 feet apart. This mine, located many years ago asthe Becker, is situated close to the village of Ormonde, near the junction of the South Yuba river and Canon Creek, at an altitude of two thousand eight hundred and fifty feet. The report of the State Mineralogist gives a good description of “thé: property. Thecourse of the vein, which seems to be a true fissure, is 15 degrees east of north and west of south, the dip being 89 degrees’ westerly. The first pay shoot has a length of three hundred and forty feet and ‘an average width of three feet: The second is seventy-three feet long and from seven to sixteen feet wide. The latter thousand two hundred feet, and can be traced for a distance of three miles. The casings and black talcose slate eontain .plumbago, which interferes amalgamation, The. ore is quartz, free gold, pyrites, and blende, yielding from $6 to $8 per ton in free gold and about 2 per cent. of sulphurets, worth from $80:to $100 per ton. The latter are saved on blanket sluices and reserved for further disposition. The tuunel, which is-five feet wide by six andahalf feet high, cost: $6 10 per foot. The shaft, which is twelve feet by eight feet, cost $34 per foot, one foot per day being sunk by™ nine men. Both tunnel and shaft are timbered with pine and spruce, costing 4 cents per running foot, the timber being cut on the company's ground. The company has built a’dam on the South Yuba, and three-fourths of amile of ditch and flume, which supplies water for an overshot wheel of -forty-two feet diameter and-six~ feet breast. Four hundred incties of water are delivered on. this wheel, under a head. of one hundred and eighty feet, giving about fifty-horse power, which drives the mill.A nine-foot Pelton wheel, under a like pressure, is used for pumping and hoisting in the mine. The developments, in addition to the main tunnel and shaft, are: Three upraises from tunnel to surface, drifts from the main shaft two hundred aid forty feet southward and sixty-five feet northward, anda winze forty-two feet deep from the main tunnel, at a point . four hundred and and twenty-five feet from the main shaft. The company’s ‘Wet stamp mill is on the mine, and contains a Bluke’s improved rock breaker, and twenty stamps of eight bundred and fifty pounds each, dropping from five and .one-half to six inches, from eighty-eight to ninetytwo times per minute. Each stamp crushes tw»? and two-tenths tons of ore in twenty-four hours, through a thirty mesh brass wire screen, having a discharge surface of forty-eight inches in length by five inches high. The thirty-mesh screen is to be replaced by one of forty: meshes to the linear inch, The screens are placed at a slight inclination: from the perpendicular. The amalgam plates, apron, and sluices are similar to those in the Blue Bell Mill, both being under the same superintendency, The blanket sluices ‘fare soon to be replaced by machine ‘concentrators. Of the amalgam, three fifths is obtained in the battery, onefifth on the trough plates and the remainder on the apron and sluice plates; The shoes and dies are of chilled’ iron, costing 534 cents per pound at the mill, an average of 123¢ cents per ton of ore crushed, this being slightly less than in thé Blue Bell and Yuba Mills, The loss of quicksilver, per ton of ore, is not given, but the total cost of milling is stated to be 40 cents per ton; that of mining, ‘$2 per ton, Comes Bigh, but Must Have Him The Grass Valley Salvation Army hall continues to be jammed night after night with an eager crowd of woishippers. About a dozen persons professed religion during the past week. Some of the rival churches are about to import Sam Jones, so it is said, ‘‘to check the spread of such fanaticism.” At last accounts Sam was in Los Angeles “reviving” at the price of $100 per night. Arrested for Battery. Frank Bice was arrested Tuesday night for battery, his wife being the complainant. He demanded a jury trial which was set by Justice Wadsworth for Wednesday evening, The woman charges her husband with treating her ina most infamous manner, and he responds by alleging serious things against her. — -Dow’r commit suicide! if you have dyspepsia, with headache, heartburn, distress in the stomach, no appetite, are all worn, out—but take Hood’s “an appetiteand gently regulates, the has been stripped to a—lengthof one} na@ place in the honse.

The Marysville Appeal and Placer Republican give views from a number of experienced fruit-growers as to the variety of fruit they would put out on a twenty-acre tract. The following opinions are taken from the Marysville Appeal; = J. A. Onstott—While I am partial to the best varieties of figs and raisin grapes, I think good canning apricots and peaches are the best for the small fruit-grower. R. Davis—I am in favor of the apricot. There is, and always will be, in my judgment, a good market for the apricot. Harry P. Stahler—My advice to a small orchardist on such land as we have here is to plant peaches—only one or two varieties—study the character and needs of the trees, and watch them well, and the most profit will be the result. + James T. Bogue—I would advise the planting of apricots or peaches. If twice as many acres, I would prefer to divide it equally between apricots, Peaches and pears. Oranges and olives will do best in the foothfils, piece of land on the soil nearest to the water, not too close, however, I would plant ten acres of cherries, of an-early variety, suitable either for canning or table.use, and the other ten I would not make much choice between apricots, peaches or pears. The reason I would be partial to cherries, if I were planting, is that if they are planted now, by the time they come into bearing, some five or.six years from now, they will, in my judgment, be the favorite fruit in the market for canning; and they will-always command a price as good or nearly as good as they do now. B. G. Stabler, one of the most experienced iruit-growers in this part of the State, said: ‘‘Almonds and figs are slow to come in, but 1 think that to those who do not want a quick returnsthey will prove most profitable. Apricots and peachés in such land as we have in this immediate section bring a more early return, but they require scrupnious care.” A correspondent of the Placer Republican, speaking for the upper part of that county, says: ‘In planting twenty acres for commercial purposes much would depend upon the way I Was situated” in regard to labor. Twenty acres, planted eighteen feet each way, will contain 2,680 trees. If I had to depend entirely on hired heip, I would raise such fruit as I could dispos: of in the least time. Therefore I would advise planting ten acres to Bartlett pears; first, because they do not mature suitable for shipping until most of the Bartletts raised below us have been disposed of; second, that they do remarkably well--here and there is always a ready market for them. I would also plant the following varieties of peaches and plums for the ‘same reason I would the pears, and aleo because you get an income sooner; 268 Early Crawford peach trees, 268 Salway, 268 Edwards’ cling, 268 McGowan cling, 268 Columbia plum. They are all good: shipping varieties and highly colored. If a person has a family that wants to do the work themselves aud save paying out so much for wages it would be well to plant 224 Black Tartarian ‘cherries, 100 Royal Ann cherries, 123° Hule’s early peaches, 223 Hungarian prunes, leaving five acres for ‘pears.’ Another said he would. put: ont.all prunes, as promising the moat protit, the prune area in this country being limited to California, and the demand increasing. Figs are also highly recommended, The Republican further says: Of course much can be learned by a newcomer from the experience of old repidents, but.no immutable rules can be laiddown. The above, however, gives an idea of about what may be expected from a small tract, and is assurance that a fruit-grower can get aloug comfortably on less than a whole county. re Mt ante Ne AARP OC ES Underservedly Laughed At. game of nervousness.

Now that there is so much talk about the fee business in the Sheriff's office, and as the books of ‘accounts: in that branch of county government have been experted by direction of the Grand Jury back to the period when Sheriff Lord took charge of them, why would it not be in good. taste and judgment for the Grand Jury to cause an inspection of the books kept by Mr. Lord’s Democratic predecessor?

Libeleus Pruriency. Owing to the morhid pandering of its local newspapers to the prurient prudishneas of some of its inhabitants, Grass Valley.is getting the undesirable reputation of being a hotbed of immorality. Every drun.mer thinks until he has visited it, that it is the modern Cyprus in this respect—that many of ity girls are ‘‘chippies’’ and many of its women ‘‘bad.”” As a matter of fact, however, the town of Grass Valley is as moral as any place ofits size in the world, and is simply the victim of the putrid vaporings of prurient prudes.

It seems that when a man’s physical strength is i or some dire enemy in the shape of threatens it the of his faith is enlarged and the ten of his ation are multiplied. He will a doctor tells him, and clujgh at any straw holds out. A few days ago as I entered the office of gne of the most upright and learned of Pittsburgh’s surgeons, I met a little man coming out. He was intensely angry; there was no disguising of that fact, and he was swearing at the physician whose office he was leaving at a great rate, Tasked the doctor what had happened. “Nothing extraordina:y,” he replied. Phat man has a cancer and wanted. me to operate on it,’ é “ Wouldn’t you do it?” i “Yes, under certaindonditions, In“the first place I offended him by saying that I was intensely sorry for him, but I couldn’t take his case, He asked me why, and IT said T would rather not anawer, But he insisted, saying that he had come two hundred miles surgeon’s knife, that it would be almost cut it, and that since he desired my opinion I must tell him that he ought not to expect to live more than six months at the most, “Then he became very angry, and insinuated that I thought. ho-couldn’t pay. To which I replied that I thought he had better g0 home, and if after calm deliberation he wished to risk an operation he could call which you observed.’’ : ~ In this case I happen to know that this surgeon sacrificed a fee of not less than two hundred and fifty dollars. Probably the death-doomed man found a doctor with a more elastic conseience to carve him up, NOTES ON HYPNOTISM. Results of a Detailed Study of the Memofry in the Hypnotic State. Dr. A.Dichas, writing in the American Journal of Prychology, tas made a detailed study of the memory in the hypnotic state, and summarizes his main conclusions somewhat as follows: (1). During tle hypnotic sleep the subject remembers the experiences of his waking life as well as of previous hypnosés, (2). In hypnotism there” is often an exaltation of the memory, and at times a change in its content, leading to the assumption of a foreign personality. (8). The memory of what has been going on during hypnosis is usually lost, it can often be revived by a simple suggestion, and at times the memory of a suggested hallucination may. linger on and-influence the waking condition, (4). The operator can, at his will, have any of the acts of the hypnotio state remembered or forgotten by making this a part of a-suggestion. (5). Suggestion seems to be largely explicable as un“esonsclous memory, Di Cybulskt hus stud . ied the power of hypnotic subjects to hypnotize themselves, He finds that such subjects strongly imagine fora minute or less that the operator commands them to go to sleep, and the desired result ensues. Furthermore, if the subject, on going to sleep, imagines himself controlled by a certain person, then, even though another sent him to sleep, he will be subject to the former, and not to the operator. These observations show the importance of the subjective elements in the process of hypnotasm, and indicate the method by which the subject unconsciously takes hag and acts upon them, Dr, Berkhan has applied hyp‘. Motisam to the amelioration of the hearing of the deaf. He tested the hearing of nine deaf boys, and, after hypnotizing them; spoke to t! eighteen months, . A Fins. TUNER'S TALK.

While hoe was dexterously removing the rat’s nest ly boundary ofclaim ¥, 16° from inside the piano the reporter asked if rats were usually a and parcel of pianos, The tuner remarked that while probably two-thirds of the instruments in residences were free from the rodents the other third were infested with them; at least that has been his experience during twenty years of his life, Those-in thé country, especially in well-to-do farmers’ houses, were generally inhabited by rats, and in dozens of cases fully half a bushel of small scraps of paper that had been carried there by the pests had been discovered.

Occasionally a hungry rat is discovered that shows fight, and the wielding of & broomstick, with the accompanying screaming by the ‘women folk, is necessary to get rid of the imal, an. Children oftentimes cause pianos to get out of order, but while the trouble caused by them is usually quickly repaired, there are times when they do more damage than rate. Left alonein the room with an open instrument the. spirit of mischief comes over them and a cane or a book is poked in under or among tle strings. The owner returns to play on the piano and then finds it at sixes and sevens. As every thing was -all-.rightbut-a—few—minutes—before, the cause of the trouble can not be understood, and then there is bluster about the house. Should the piano be a new one the maker is blamed, the instrument is condemned and a sharp letter is forwarded to the seller. The repairer with fear and trembling hastens to the scene, the trouble is found, and after apologies, the whipping of the small boy who did the mischief and the payment of the bill for repairs, the piano is left to its fate, ‘ Picking up @ five-cent piece lying on the action, the tuner said: “Hore is something, too, I find, as well as rate’ nests and the work of children. To be sure, money 1s not found frequently, especiaily in any considerable amount, but the finding of two fat pocket-books and a $10 gold piece I will never forget. The gold been placed in the piano for safe keeping by a young lad and its hiding place forgotten, and my finding it, of course, made the owner happy. The bringing to light of one of the pocketbooks made me £50 richer, that being & resent fromits loser.
