Eustis, a resident of French Corril, met with a very serious accident on Saturday morning of lust week, by being ran over by a four horse wagon. The accident happened near Fitzsim~< mons’ ranch, while hauling wood. «In driving down-a-steep place ia the road: the brake-became loose, and Eustis lost control of the team. The jolting of the wagon threw him off. the seat, and in endeavoring to recover the reins he slipped and fell under the wagon, and two of the wheels passed over his back from shoulder to shoulder) Several persons who were near by hurried to Eustis’ assistance, and carried him to a house a short distance from where he was hurt. Dr. Harris, of San Juan, was sent for, who reports that though the injuries sustained by Eustis are very serious, yet the chances are’ he will recover. ; The City Election. The Charter election takes place on the lst day of May. As yet few candidates have been announced for city offices as will be seen from our col~ umns. The election does not promise to be ks lively as usual on such occtasions and little interest seems to be manifestedby~ our cttizens: ~~ It “ia highly important that good men .and taxpayers should be selected as Trustees, a8 upon the character ef the Board depends the management of city finances and the taxation of the people. It would be well for citizens to consider the qualifications of every candidate who presents himself for their votes at the Charter Election. A Nigger in the Fence.’ An interesting little episode occurred at the St Patrick’s Ball, in this city on Monday night. A leading Democrat objected to dancing ina set because there wasa nigger in it. The coms mittee went on asearch and it is res ported that they found twenty Democrats whose hair curled cleser and whose complexions were darker than the individual who created the sensation. Toward morning the secret leaked out. The party who first raised objection was debarred from dancing on the ist of January, and he played for even on St. Patrick’s. Besides the reputed darkey was fairer skinned and got more partners than some of the Democrats who were jealous of him. The aforesaid objectionable individual danced until midnight before it was discovered he wasn’t white, and he got his three dollars back. Houses. for houses in this city.) We yesterday saw a house hunter who found one vacantand then ascertained that it had He that bachelors, especially if-young and handsome, sometimes got “spliced.” The house hunter accepted the explanation, considering that he was once a bachelor himself, and he started out to find another house. ub ery at San Juan. A Grand Gift Entertainment for the benefit of the San Juan District Schools, . Fire Companies; and for the constraction and laying down of new iron pipe for fire purposes in the town, is about to be started at San Judn. It ‘s in coni praeten to issue seventy-five thous sand tickets at one dollar each, the entertainment to be given on or about the Fourth of J uly next, under the auspices of the citizens of San Juan. ther Skate Frank: Potter has invented a new skate which was tried at Dickinson’s tink yesterday afternoon by experts and pronounced good. Special Notice, : The person that took that cloak by : Te 1 lmamediately, otherwise it will -. -one-we have ever knowin this county, e regret to learn that Banner Bros., One of the oldest and most popular firms that ever engaged in business here, have determined to close’ out their clothing establishment in this city, to engage in business extensively elsewhere, after a residence here of ten years) This celebrated firm has_ risen-with greater rapidity than any We well remember when Banner Bros. Started in this place with a stock of clothing that could be easily packed in good sized box, and from that small lot they commenced increasing until now they can justly be termed the leading ready made clothiers on the Pacitic Coast. Their stock—here has and at Virginia City, their establishment is larger than all the balance combined, to say nothing of their branch houses in San Francisco and New York, at the latter place where most of their goods are. manufactured. There are many good reasons why they have been so successful. They have always made it their aim to. accommodate everybody, courteous in every respect, selling goods cheaper than they could be bought in this or ‘auy other State, and they have not been afraid to use printers’ ink in the most libera) manner, They enjoy, today,a reputation for honesty. enters prise-andliberality that many older firms might envy,’ and they have ges their business in all its minute details, and which has attracted customers from every part of this and adjoining counties. They have just received a very largestock of goods for the Spring trade, which ‘was ordered several months since, and it, with the balance of their immense stock, will be sold at first cost,as they are determined to close .out. during thepresent season. Before these gentlemen leave us, and everybody will regret their departure, for they will surely be tissed, they have concluded to give the people of Nevada county and country merchants a grand benetit by selling their stock at less than first cost, with the idea, evidently, that they intend everybody shall be well dressed fora small amount of money, which said articles will be a gentle reminder of the celebrated firm of Banner Bros.
