T Attorneys Engaged to Bring Polar Star Hydraulic Case to Trial—Ex- odus of Miners Is Ham- pering Work. PP A legal battle of more than common in- terest to miners is in preparation. Wil- liam Nicholls of Dutch Flat is the person directly in interest, but others are con- | cerned in the outcome. Mr. Nicholls | erected a dam at a cost of $10,000 to ena- ble him to operate the Polar Star hy- draulic claim and has been operating three seasons. Recently the Superior Court in Sutter County enjoined the ope- ration of the claim and the mine is idle. Nicholls has engaged two lawyers Iin of Marysville and P. F. Tuttle of Au- burn. The dam was erected with the con- | sent and approval of the Debris Commis- The validity of the Caminettl act | may be tested. There is some excitement | among the hydraulic miners. The Auburn | Herald indicates some heat, for it says: | “There is no doubt that this injunction | against the Polar Star was instigated by ng of anti-debris pirates who are out Job, owing to the successtul opera- tlon of hy auifc claims unddr the pro- | visions of the Caminetti act.” ete.

MASON BROUGHT MEAT INTO THE CAMP Wild Story of Disappearance of the Rifleman in the Mendocino Mountains. The many friends of Frank E. Mason, chief engineer of the Sutter-street Rall- way Company and one of ‘the best rifle shots in the West, will be pleased to learn that he has not met with any serious ac- cident in the mountains near Eel River, as reported In a morning paper. The story was that he was lost and-could not be found by his companions, Smith Carr, G. B. Barber and W. H. Burkholder, while on a hunting trip near Hearst, Mendocino County. The four reached camp on Thursday and late in the afternoon starteq out for a hunt in the hills. Mason fajled to return for supper and his companions went In search of him, but could not find him. The next day Mason returned to camp, carrying a fine deer. city and caused In the meantime the story that he was missing reached this great anxiety among his friends and rela- tives. Yesterda officials at the Mason sent word to the utter-street engine house that he was all right and the party was having a good time.
