ORE RICH IN METAL. A Network of Claims Yielding Handsomely Upon the Investment, PLACERVILLE'S BRIGHT FUTURE. Outside Capital Seeking to Share in the Wealth of the Gold-Streaked Mountains. SRVILLE, Can.,, Nov. 23.—For 1 Dorado County’s principal | ve been a little fruit-growing, le-grazing on a small scale and a little lumbering. h few exceptions the y has been in a sort of comatose con- dition. In latter da; e finding their way hither and interest in the discovery of new reopening of old, abandoned gold Theresult is so gratifying that the i from its Rip Van lesleep. Men are beginning to re- at in and about the city of Placer- live upon the great mother lode. growers and ranchers are turn- to mining to recuperate from their sses in agricultural pursuits. Almost rancher finds he has a gold mine 1 his orchard anc -field. tside are discovering, through a few energetic men no vesting capital here, that Placerville is not in Placer, but E1 Dorado, C ty. They are learning thisis not one great vineyard, but is in v a mining county of great possibili- ties. Aside from the mills now in opera- | tion, the abundance of ore in various parts | of the county and the Lundreds of pros- | pectors flocking hither, there are opportu- nities almost innumerable for successful mining on any scale to suit the investor. | There are many properties here that were abandoned at water-depth, which to-day, | prospected to a greater depth, would be | among the great gold-producers of the world. Owned by foreign capitalists and aban- doned yea go, there 1s in the following outline of property a group of mines de- | serving the attention of the mining world | d capitalists. Could it be transpianted laska, Australia or Africa, it would n doubt soon be in active operation. Beginning almost with the townsite and cont 2 directiy through the city the plant starts at Weber Creek and continues to the American River, a distance of five miles. It will be necessary to enter somewhat into detail in describing the various groups. The 260 acres of gravel referred to atthe end of this article are not shown in the map. To show the magnitude of the plant eal piece will be specially but briefly enumerated, a short review of the worl done and the qua of the ore taken out | t ed-in the history of each t tose group—Consisting of the 0 feet; the Ida No. 2, the Rose, and the Ida, continuous on the Rose vein for 3000 feet. The Pacific has two veins: in the east vein dior: the west vein having | hanging wall and slate for foot- | 1e vein matter is quartz, carrying | free goid, iron pyrite, arsenical pyrite and | some galena. The sulphurets will amount | to about 134 per cent, at a value of about | $80 per ton. The developments on the Pacific consist of a vertical shaft 700 feet deep and various short levels. From the partial developments on the | west ledge of » Pacific, on the 300 to 600 | level, the rock milled $8 per ton. The Pa- cific mine has produced from the ground above the 300 level something over $1,000,- 0. The Rose has a shaft 450 feet deep sunk on the vein, but the workings are exceed- ingly limited. There is good reason to ex- pect that within a distance of 500 feet a good quality of ore should be encountered. The assay values given in the records of this property show that the vein is con- tinuously gold-bearing. The samples all show gold, and the values run from $4 up- ward. The Oregon, a contimuation of the Rose vein, has a tunnel 375 feet long and a shaft 200 feet deep. Some gold. has been taken from this, approximating $80,000. The Ida and th= Ida No. Zare a continua- tion of the Rose vein. The fact remains that among the best paying mines to-day in the State the same | conditions prevailed asin the Pacific, all of which showed decided improvement when greater depth had been reached. Prominent among these are the following | (the figures are approXimate): the Idaho, | in Nevada County, 2700 feet deep; the pire, Nevada County. 2100; the < Nevada County, 2400; the Springfield, El Dorado County, 1600; the Church, El Dorado County, 1050; the Keystone, Amador= County, 1400; the Kennedy, Amador County, 1 the Oneida, Amador Connty, 1200; the Gwin, Calaveras County, 1500; the Utica, Calaveras County, over 1000. In one continuous chain follow the | Chester, 1460x185 feet; the Kegan, 930x 500; the Davy, 420x500. The Chester has a tunnel; the Kegan has a tunnel 160 feet long on the vein, and some good samples have been taken from its face. At the mouth of this tunnel is a shaft 50 feet deep, with two levels 50 feet each. The assays of ore here show $3 17 and $10 65 per ton. The Davy has a crosscut tunnel 700 feet | Jong. It shows many stringers, and its | face is said to cut a good vein. The Eply group consists of the following claims: The Faraday, 1500x550 feet; the Henrietta, 14903550, on the . Pacific vein 3000 feet; the Eply, 2460x500; Weber, 900x 600; Albright, 4.12 acres; Witliamson, 7, on Rose vein 3360 feet. 1 of these have cuts and shafts of small dimensions, and | are on the extension of the Pacific veins. The Eply, as is noticed from the above figures, is a long claim. It has three shafts and hoisting works; the several short levels are at a depth of 60, 80 and 2 feet. It is a matter of record that this mine has produced about $43,000 from 2135 tons of rock, which is about $20 per ton. The locators of the claim have taken out about 700 tons, valued at $15,000. The records show, too, that a bowlder taken from the shait in the tunnel assayed $513 51 per ton in gold. The copy of the record of assays shows a percentage of sulphurets from the ore to be 114, with a value of $160 to $180 per ton. The Gross, Van Hooker and Harmon group is as follows: The Gross is 1246x575 feet, Van Hooker 945x500 feet, Old Har- mon 1500x500 feet, all patented and con- tinuous to total length on vein 3691 feet. & roc g eravel was encountered that prospected | ented The croppings on the Gross are very strong, and on the whole this is a promis- ing piece of property. The Van Hooker vein is eight feet wide, but the claim is not sufficiently develop_ed to enable the forming of any definite opin- ion concerning its merits. The Old Harmon in the third crosscut from the shaft shows good rock, and it can be safely called more than a promising { prospect. The shaft shows fairly good rock. The Eureka and Bear group consists of the Eureka 12913600 feet, Grizzly Bear 1500 00, Brown Bear 1400x600, White Bear 1500x600, Cinnamon Bear 1500x600, contin- uous and on the Rose vein. These are surface prospects and show good croppings and a strong vein. The work done consists of a few short tununels and cuts. The claims extend from the north line of the Gross to the South Fork of the American River, and run varallel with Big Canyon. Assays from the crop- pines are said to have yielded as much as $60 per ton. i The Texas Hill gravel property consists of 264 acres, and is a ““drift gravel mine.” A large channel traverses the eastern po tion of the property in a northerly and southerly direction. Its width is sup- posed to be 300 feet, and the lengthis about 2000 feet. It has a tunnel 900 feet long, and branches aggregating fully 900 feet ad- dition , besides airways. The value of the gravel in this property has been $10 on the north line and $7 on the t line per carioad of 1600 pound: This is a valuable property, from which ate profits may be expected. There 1 10-stamp mill on it which can crush, I old, sixty tons per day. n the shaft, about 1200 feet from the mouth of the tunnel, reaching the rim at fifty-three feet.a large body of per car of 1600 pounds. A recent prospect taken from the rim rock near the chute yielded $50 to the pan. Work was discontinued on this owing to water. The bedrock is soapstone and porphyry For the sake of convenience to the reader the properties are enumerated in a sum- marized for The Pac 2ose group consists of the follow ims, all patented: The Pa- | Rose, Oregon, vein.

With this zreat Comstock to be developed, and the 1mmense water-power at com- and, this pioneer county (at one time nown as the Empire County) is destined once more to assume her proud position as queen among the gold-producing sec- tions of the State. Not to speak of the other properties now in active operation, nd those being projected from day to day n this section, it is safe to say that ¥ Dorado’s opportunities need only be bronght to the mnotice of the world to se- ure inspection and consequent investment of capital. The reopening of this chain of mines upon the mother lode. based upon the plans of deep mining, would bring about rich results to the investors in particular and to the country in general. The owners are giving no attention to these properties, and the fact that not one of the company is a resident of the coun- try, makes it probable that negotiations for’ purchase would be favorably enter- tained.

Because nobody has taken pains to bring this bonanza property to the attention of capitalists, it lies dormant and unnoticed. A. . Hayivton. FUENE. PARDINI CRAZY He Makes a Vigorous Attack Upon His Cellmates in the Prison. One of Them Felled to the Floor and Another Has His Thumb Nearly Bitten Off. Eugene Pardini has, as was expected, lost his reason from the nervous strain he has undergone siuce hLis arrest ten days ago for attempting to criminally assault little girls. The first signs of his mental aberration were shown last Tuesday, when ne attempted to strangle himself by tying a handkerchief tightly round his neck and then thrusting his geld spectacles down his throat. The attempt was frustrated by one of his cellmates, who discovered him just in time. On Friday night he at- tempted to force a cane belonging to Cap- tain Lane down his throat with suicidal intent, ana a more careful watch was kept upon him. He had not slept a wink for several nights, and his restlessness and loud talk- ing kept the other prisoners awake most of the night. It was only a question of time when he would break down com- pletely, and it happened about noon yes- terday. Pardini had been more than usually quiet for an bour or so, when suddenly Le jumped from his cot and with a yell rushed at Peter McIntyre, one of his cell- mates. Before MclIntyre could reali: what was the matter, Pardini had struck bim a terrific blow on the chin with his clinched fist and felled him to the ground. James Gallagher, another of his cel!mates, sprang upon him, and in the struggie Par- dini got Gallaghe right thumb in his mouth and nearly bit it off. By this time Captain Robinson, Door- keeper Shaw and one of the trusties had rushed into the cell. ‘Pardini, with his eves flashing and his hands clenched, made ready to spring upon them, when Shaw looked him square in_the eyes, and by a few authoritative and judicions words got him sufficiently under his power till Captain Robinson deftly placed the hand- cuffs over his wrists. He was taken to the Receiving Hospital, and strapped down in one of the padded cells. Pardini_will probably be taken before the Insanity Commissioners this morning for examination. The hearing of his cases before Judge Low 1s set for to-mosrow afternoon, but if it should be decided that beisinsane that will change the cowm- plexion of affairs, e Coasting on His Bicycle. William French, 504 Corbett avenue, was ‘‘coasting” on his bicycle near the Ingleside yesterday when he took a header. He made his way to the Recelving Hospitai, where Dr. Thompson found that there was a dislocation of his left wrist, and his lert foot wasalso dislo- cated. BATTERY £ VICTORIOUS, Won the Beautiful Obermeyer Trophy Yesterday at Shell Mound. THE SCORE WAS 1774 POINTS. Excellent Pistol and Rifle Records Made by the Columbias and the Sharpshooters. Battery E of the Second Artillery Regi- ment won the beantiful Obermeyer trophy vesterday at Shell Mound shooting range 1 score of 1774, or an average of 3514 points for each man. Battery C was the nearest rival to E. Captain A. F. Obermeyer, an enthusiast in military and rifle matters, offered to the batteries of the Second the handsome tro- phy.

The ball game at Central Park yester@ny afternoon between the San Francisco nine and the amateurs of the Pacific team was won by the former by a score of 8 to 2. Since the league went to pieces Man- agers Rockwell and Barnes have arsanged with a number of the league plny‘ers to remain and play Sunday games at Centra Park, and when games cannot be arrapged with any of the amateur teams of the City two professional nines will meet. Thatis | the programme as outlined for the winter | in order to keep up the interest int basebalt until spring, when it is proposed to organ- ize the league for 1896. Yesterday’s game with the Pacifics was | the first to be played under the new ar- rangement. ‘There were about 1000 people in attendance, and although the game was somewhat one-sided as to the score, it was a decidedly interesting exhibition and was hotly contested throughout. The ama- teurs played very good ball, and but for a few bad errors and the inability of the men to meet the emergency at bat at dii- ferent points in the game when the bases were full, there would have been a very different score recorded. Lange and Nash _made their first appear- ance with the San Franciscos and did good | work for the professionals. They both re- ceived a welcome from the crowd, particu- larly Biliy Lange, who left a great record behind him when he waslastin California. His two-base hit over the right field fence was one of the features of the game. Iburg for the amateurs and Harper for the professionals did the twirling., They both had good control and one was hit about as hard as the other, but Harper was | given superior support by the more ex- perienced professionals to that accorded Iburg by the amateurs. This and the greater ability of the professionalsto place account for the difference in the showing | of the two teams, for out of the eight runs of San Francisco but one was an earned one. The most creditable features | of the amateurs’ playing were two base hits by Hearty and Iburg, the handsome fielding of Wilds and a circus catch by base runner. The ball went very high, but Murphy jumped and held it with one hand, scoring a put out. ‘The professicnals began the run-getting in the first half of the second inning, when, after two men were out, Stanley hit | for a single. He stole second and scored | on Iburg’s failure to hold an easy fly of McCarth McCarthy made second on the play, went to third on a wild throw ot Dreus’ to second and scored on a wild pitch. In the Pacifics’ half Gorman singled, went to third on Levy’s out at first and scored on McCarthy’s wiid throw | to first when no one was covering the base. In the first half of the third Sweeney singled and reached second when Lang went to first on an error of Smith’s. The base runners each stole a base and Sweeney scored on Nash’s out at first. Lang came home on Smith's failure to field Mertes’ hit to short. ‘The Pacifics failed to score and the run- | getting ceased on both sides until the sixth. In tne professionals’ half of this inning, with one out, McCarthy got his base on balls and went to second on Har- per’s single. Werrick hit to Peguigney, the bases to be filled. Then Billy Lange came to bat amid the cheers of the crowd. They expected something of him and he did not fail them, but lined out a hot single that scored McCarthy and Harper. Sweeney and Nash retired the side by flying out to ! Wilds in right fietd, who made two hand- some catches. There was no run-making done by either side until in the ninth, when Lang, as usual, hit safe. He stole second, went to third on a wild throw of Dreus’ and scored on Nash’s out at first. Mertes hit for a single, stole second and third by virtue of an improper decision of the umpire and scored when Power went out at second after being given a base on balls. Me- Carthy struck out. Murphy, for the Pa- cifics, hit safe, was advanced to second by Gorman being hit by the pitcher and both were advanced a base on Levy's out at first. Murphy scored on Wilds' long single to second. Hearty flew out to Power and Dreus struck out. Tollowing is the makeup of the teams: San Franciscos—Werrick, second base: Sweeney, shortstop; Lange, left field; Nash, third base; Mertes, center field; Power, first base; Stanly, catcher; Mc- Carthy, right field; Harper, pitcher, Pa- cifics—Smith, second base; Pequigney, shortstop; Murphy, left fiedd; Gorman, third base; Levy, center field; Wilds, first base; Hearty, catcher; Dreus, right field; Iburg, pitcher. AT EMMANUEL CHURCH. Rev. J. George Gibson Delivers an In- teresting Sermon Before a Large Congregation. Emmanuel Baptist Church was crowded to the doors last night when Rev. J. George Gibson opened the evening service. His text was founded on Romans, ii: 16, “God shall judge the secrets of men.” In the course of his remarks Mr. Gibson said: “Is life worth living? is & question asked by all the young people, and during the last few years many bocks have been writ- ten on this very subject. Now the ques- tion is, if life is not worth living is it worth destroying? I appeal to all intelli- gent people to say if suicides exercised as much energy in living asin dying, might not the story have been different? | son, Judge Green of Oakland, Dr. H. READY FOR THE OPENING The New Course at Ingleside Visited by Hundreds of People. RECORD HOLDERS TO MEET. Geraldine Will Make Her Reappear- ance Thanksgiving Day—Other Turf Items. The new racecourse of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club at Ingleside presented a most animated and business-like appearance yesterday. It was thronged for hours with visitors, who went in all sorts of vehicles, with a liberal sprinkling of cyclists. Workmen were busy putting on the finishing touches to the grand stand, and everything will be in readiness for the opening on Thanksgiving day. The visiting Eastern horsemen are | charmed with the stable accommodations and track and with the handsoeme build- ings and picturesque surroundings. Cali- fornia is to be congratulated on baving a racecourse fit for the “‘sport of kings” and one that compares favorably with any in the country. The Governor and his full staff will be in attendance the opening day. It is very seldom that four record-hold- ers come together 1n one event, but in the second race on Thanksgiving day, at In- gleside track, Libertine, holder of the mile record of 1:384-5 on a circular course; Mamie Scott, who recently set a new mark at the Bay District track over seven and a half furlongs; Wernberg, who reeled off six and a half furlongs over the Sheeps- head Bay track in 1:19 2-5, the present record, and Geraldine, ““Our Gerry,” whose mark of 46 seconds for the half: e still stands, will try conclusions at six fur- longs. Geraldine, who has not appeared on a California track in many moons, will be remembered as the cause of the un- pleasant controversy between R. Porter Ashe and Thomas H. Williams Jr. Dur- ing a period of his racing career, some two years back, Mr. Ashe found himself in financial straits, among his creditors being “Mike” Kelly. his ex-trainer. About this time Trainer Kelly cast his lot with Mr. Williams as handler of the horses carrying his black jacket and orange cap. Geraldine at this time was in prime condition and would be looked upon as a welcome addi- tion to any stable. ¢ Trainer Kelly put his claim in the hands of Mr. Williams and it was decided to at- tach the speedy mare, so a Deputy Marshal was delegated to take the writ and trans- fer the mare from the stable of Mr. Ashe to that of Mr. Williams. A warm reception awaited the officer and after surveying the situation he decided to retire and return the following day with re-enforcements. That night Geraldine was spirited away, and for a long time her whereabouts was a mysterv until she sud- denly appearéd in the list as a frequent winner, many times carrying the cherry colors of Mr. Ashe to victory in fast com- pany. Thursday she will sport the colors of Bookmaker George Rose. Lobengula, the shifty brown colt by Hudson, dam Zulu, in the stable of Green Morr:s, who was_taken sick with colic on Thursday, is still a very ill horse, and doubts are entertained for his recovery. Jockey Chevalier, who was injured by a fall in the opening race Saturday, will not be seen in the ‘saddle until Thursday. It is said that Dow Wiltiams, the guardian of Chevalier, will ask_the stewards for an investigation, as it is rumored a certain jockey riding in' the race intentionally bumped Miss Ruth, on which Chevalier had the mount. The well-known Australian horseman, F. de B. Lopez, entertained a party of turf- men at his Merriwa stock farm, Pleasan- ton, yesterday, censisting of Judge Joseph J. Burke, W.'C. Vreeland, Joseph C. Si Hoagland and D. W. Higgins. Mr. Lopez’s charming wife and daughter assisted in making things pleasant for the visitors, and they leit for home with a high opinion of Australian hospitality. THE Carn is In receipt of a copy of the quarterly number of the “Form Book,” containing the performances of horses on all of the Eastera tracks from July 19 to November 12 inclusive. ‘I'his is the most complete guide yet issued, giving the positions of the horses at the different points, and with the large num- ber of Eastern racers at present quartered on the local tracks it is invaluable to race- goers.

The club will be incorporated this week. The Olympic Cyclers had a jolly run to Mayfield yesterday. took the train as far as Millbrae, and found the roads from there on very rideable. The Acme Club Wheelmen held a ten- mile road race over the Fruitvale-Hay entrants, but only nine started, a chilly north wind tending to lessen their enthusi- asm and the desire to ride ten miles in bare arms and shanks. J. A. Scott won the race, and P. M. Lefevre made best time, 25:44, which is very fast, considering the course, which has been newly graveled in places, particularly at the finish. i The joint run of the Alpha (ladies’) Cyeling Club and the California Cycling Club attracted considerable attention at the Park vesterday, and the neatly bloom- ered ladies were very favorably com- mented upon. The members of the Crescent Road Club, Examiner and CaLr Bicycle Clubs and the Bay City Wheel- men were out_in full force. Thomas H. Doane, an old-time member of the latter club, who was riding an ancient 51-inch “ordinary,’” was the center of attraction, and was continually bbthered by requests from other old-timers for the loan of his wheel, and many faus and headers were laughed at in consequence.

A Case of “Out of the Frylng-Pan Into the Fire.” | Frequent physicking as a cure for a whole catalogue of troubles is the terrible mis- take that is mining the health and short- ening the lives of thousands every year. When the eye is lusterless, the complex- ion yellow or dingy, head aching, the brain | dull, the limbs tired and heavy, the spirits depressed and energy at ebb tide, pills and | purgatives are employed to violently move the bowels, which, if frequently repeated, leaves the digestive apparatus in a state of complete collapse. Nature is notva carthorse to be driven with & whip. What is needed is a stimu- lant and invigorator like Peruvian Bitters. Its use causes the inactive stomach, the torpid liver and bowels to naturally resume their functions. If the system contains any malarial poisons, cold or fever. nothing known to medical science will so effectually drive it out as the world-famous Peruvian Bark—the most important ingredient of Peruvian Bitters, a faultless, powerful tonic that restores brilliancy to the eye, the glow of health to the face, clearness to the intel- lect, and keenness of perception to all the senses and faculties.
