There was a notion at first thal fierrin, | Burns and Gage might get together a day or two before the convention and programme, the ticket from top to bottom, | but the expressions of the independent Republican newspapers of the State have convinced the politiclans that the people will not stand for that sort of machine work.

Delvers for Ore Actively Maintain Search in Mountains, The mineral wealth of Nevada County, California, forms the subject of the latest register issued by the State Min- Like preceding registers for other counties the purpose of the one re- lating to Nevada County is to give infor- mation concerning the gold mines, quartz, | drift, hydraulic, placer, etc., as well as | to supply a list'of mills and arastras; also | to supply information relative to each of | the minerals mined or commercially used. With the registet is a topographical map | showing ali mineral locations. The mines | are numbered in a table and the corre- | sponding number on the map gives 'hei precise location of the mining property. Hundreds of Quartz Mines. Under the heading of quartz mines Ne- vada County is shown by the register to have 234 such propertles. The placer | mines of the county number 26 and tne | hydraulic mines fiv The latter mines are located respectively at Nevada City (2), North San Juan, Dutch Flat ana, North Bloomfield. The mills and arastras | make a good list, numbering seventy | seven in all. Under the heading of mis- mines are _included and _calcite, granite and marble, the last being black, mottled and variegated. Grass Valley | and Nevada City naturally loom up in prominence in connection with the min- ing industries of Nevada County. These ! two places are the center of at least 192 mining enterprises. They also have a great share of the mills, having credited to them 40 out of a total of 77 in the county. Electricity makes a smaller showing as motive power for the mills than might be supposed. In fact there are only four electrical plants credited in the register, which belong respectivey to the Brunswick mill, the Gold Hill, the Pennsylvania and the W. Y. O. D., all near Grass Valley. Water and steam are used in the majority of the mills operat- ing. Gasoline as a motive power is em- ployed at the Rose Hill mine only. There are several mines at an elevation, ap- proximatey, of one mile above the sea level in Nevada County, as the following list segregated from the register of the county will show: Atlantic mine, near Eureka, elevation 5450 feet; California mine, near Washington, ele- vation 5200 feet; Caledonia mine, near Mcadow Lake, elevation 7400 feet; Columbia, Meadow Lake, 6900 feet; Gambrinus mine, Washington, 5070 'feet; Last Chance and Pinney 5400 feet; Oro Fino, Meadow Lake, Spanish, Washington, 5200 feet.

Edson of Siskivou County, whose candidacy for Governor was recently an. nounced in the Yreka Journal, arrived in the city yesterday from the north. He was greeted by many of his Grand Army comrades, who gave him assurances of support. News in Army Circles. Major General Young bade farewell to the assembled members of the department staff at the Phelan building yesterday morning. In company with Lieutenant McKinley, Fourteenth Cavalry, he left for Washington, D. C., last night.

The Redding Searchlight sa: In Furnaceville District. ‘The old machinery which has been used at | the Afterthought mine in the Furnaceville dis- | trict for many years is being hauled into Red- | ding and will be shipped away. New and the | | | elevation mine at Emigrant | | latest improved machinery will replace the old. | Local mining men are positive that the Aft- | erthought property has passed into the hands of the Tarbet syndicate, but no deeds to that effect have yet been placed on record in Shasta County. For some time rumors have been in circulation to the effect that work was soon to be resumed at the Afterthought, and now it is said that miners will be put to work in the tunnels and shafts. In addition to the old ma- | chinery now being hauled to Redding sacked ore is also being brought in for shipment to the | tidewater smelter at Vallejo Junction. The resumption of work at the Afterthought will | mean a prosperous lease of life to the Furnace- ville district and insure the rapid development of other good properties. The San Bernardino Sun reports that several mines have been recently sold in San Bernardino County. Among these are the Fearnot mine and the Royal No, | 2 and the Oro Grande mines in the Silver | Mountain mining district. The Stockton Independent says: A company composed of wealthy men, among whom are Colonel J. E. Doolittle and Alexander Brown, chairman of the State Board of Equall. zation, which secured a bond on 1400 acres of land along the Tuolumne River, near La Grange, are fast perfecting arrangements to dredge the stream for gold. The company is at present negotiating for the possession of 600 acres more, which it will doubtless get. This is a proposition of great magnitude and will in- volve an outlay of a large sum of money. Another proposition of interest and greatness is the proposed construction of an electric plant at La Grange to furnish power to the mines of Calaveras, Tuolumne and Mariposa counties and for lighting purposes also. The La Grange ditch and water rights of 2000 inches of ‘water have already been bonded, and it is expected to commence the construction of the plant the coming summer. The gentlemen named gbove are also interested in this company. The pro- posed site for the electric plant is sald to be e e — Three Piece Parlor tapestry cover.

There’s hardly a weaver with nerve enough to quote prices on Fall silks. He doesn’t know what he is going to pay. Raw silk is scarce. Ribbons have t:{ken.n?ore of it this spring than ever. The increased output of tailored suits has called for more silk l{nxn‘gs and trimmings. Silk skirts and silk wraps have eaten up silks faster than anything else. This silk vogue has only started. Silks are scarce and getting scarcer every day. So you can see I’ll Pay You to Buy Ahead at These Prices. We'll have to ask higher prices when we buy again.

Northern Counties. The Yreka Journal rcports the follow- ing: Work in the new tunnel at the Cherry Hill quartz mine on Cherry Creeic has been sus- pended to put in the air pipes. This tunnel is in over 600 feet, and may be extended o 1500 or 2000 feet. 'The Portuguése Company, working. a hydraulic claim on Upper Green- horn, has a large force kept busy day and night, to. take advantage of the abundant supply of water now running dgwn Greenhorn Creek into Yreka Creek. The Portuguese hy- draulic claims at Hawkinsville are now worked day and night, with the ditch from Greenhorn Creek across Yreka Flats running a full head of water, likely to continue until the 4th of July. The Leall de Costa hydraulic claim at the lower end of Cherry Creek is run- ning day and night with good success and an abundance of water. The Redding Free Press reports the sale of the Chloride-Bailey group of gola claims on Canyon Creek, Trinity County, by Charles Sweeney and wife of Spokane to the Trinity County Gold Mining Com- pany. Homer Wilson of San Francisco is reported to be concerned in the property. The assertion is made that the transaec- tion represents $1,000,000. The Redding Free Press says: A slab of resplendent marble was exhibited Tucsday by Fred H. Kline which shows a lit- tle known recource of Stillwater. The mar- ble was brought from a mining claim among the Gray Rocks nine miles northeast of Red- ding. It was taken from the surface and left witk Masterson Brothers to be polished. Under treatment it took on a luster which showed it to_be marble of very superior quality. The marble men declared that the specimen from Gray Rocks is the equal of the Vermont mar- ble and is even harder and more enduring. Vermont marble costs from $4 cubie foot laid down in Redding. At Gray Roeks there is an exposed body of the mar- ble at least 400 feet in thiekness. It can be cheaply quarried and inexpensively hauled to Redding. Mr. Kline offers to give all the mar- ! ble required if the contractors will use it in the High School bullding. Some of the pol- ished marble will be taken to ciseo and firms there become interested in establishing quarries. General Interests.

The mine will be developed. The controversy between the Mountain Copper Company and the orchardists, who objected to the treatment of ores at Kes- wick by the process in vogue has been settled. Sult was brought by Stolberg, Maurer et al. to recover $25,000 damages and also for an injunction. A jury re- turned a verdict ‘of damages to the extent of 3645 50 for the plaintiffs. The court de- nied an injunction. The costs and the damages will be paid by the Mountain | Copper Company and the works at Kes- wick will continue as heretofore. It ap- peared that the defendant company was assessed at one-fifth of the total assessed valuation for Shasta County. ‘With the sale of the Cherokee water system, entire, to the Bay Counties Power Company, so says the Oroville Mercury, go the Concow system and the Banner mine ditch and pipe line. This affects the water supply of the old Cherokee mine. The Mercury says that the Concow sys- tem may supply sufficient water still. According to the Del Norte Record, lo- cations have been made by the Cant Hook Platinum and Gold Mining Company along the South Fork of Smith River. Jack Holloway s reported to have accumulated forty pounds of platinum from gold ope- rations during the winter, Mineral Wealth says that another fur- nace will be added to the De Mar plant at Bully Hill and double the number of men will bc employed as compared with the force of last year. A large force, accordi to the same journal, will be employed on the McClure mine by the Mount Shasta Gold Mines. Corporation. Mineral Lands Again. The Oregon Mining Journal, published at Grants Pass, complains of the policy of the on _and California Railroad in the matter of the sale of mineral lands. The Journal says: It has been the policy of the O. & C. R. R. to sell mineral’ lands for cash at $2 50 per acre. Recently, however, we have been in- formed that parties living around here have applied to the company to purchase land on which mineral had been found, and were in- formed that hereafter such jand would be £0ld at the rate of $500 per forty acres, and ain 20¢ a yard, striped colored figures and stripes, 20 12 inches, - % Inches, good for in. |90 t de Paris laces and inser- ¥ine Mechlin Laces, stripes, 28 in Jatiste, 1 Wisi hidden | Bik-Like 29 inches. en here and there, ones, 30 inches. walsts, 28 inches. ; it has an air spring, and Hale's| MOThing.

This is a matter which If true deserves the serlous consideration of every man, woman and child living along the line of the rall- road. The average prospector does not have $500 or anywhere near it to buy land with, and he naturally will not look for gold when he knows some one else can step in and buy from under him. The company will sell agri- cultural Jand on time, but for some reason cash must accompany an application for land which contalns mineral. Why the railroad company should discrimin- ate against the miner is hard to understand. This new policy will greatly retard the devel- opment of the mineral rescurces of this sec- tion, and we believe the rallroad company is standing in its own light in taking this stand. In one way it will be a benefit to the tax payer. The Assessors of the several counties can raise the valuation of raflroad lands from B0 cents per acre to $4 or $5, and this will help defray expenses in building roads, etc. CHARGE THEIR HUSBANDS WITH DESERTING THEM Mrs. Angie Cunningham and Mrs. Nora Jorgenson File Suits for Divorce. Two Suits for divorce for desertion and fallure to provide were filed yesterday with the County Clerk. The deserted wives are Angie Cunningham and Nora Jorgenson and their suits were flled against John J. Cunningham and Adoiph Jorgenson.

The Norris & Rowe trained animal show at Meéchanics’ Pavilion attracted the largest crowd that has attended the mini- ature kippodrome since the opening, two weeks ago. According to the statement of Mr. Rowe, the manager of the concern, this season’s business in this city has been a most successful and profitabie one. The show gives its closing performance this evening. Bosco, the giant performing ape, tried a trick yesterday afternoon that came near to placing it on the retired list and the experiment was one that it will not lkely forget in a hurry. Bosco enter- tains the audiences afternoon and even- ing in an act called “the slide for life.” To do the trick the big ape is sent to a platform well up in the rafters and from which a rope is stretched at an angle to the floor below. Bosco attaches a pulley to the rope and, holding on to its end, glves itself a start. In a second or two the animal lands in a net that is held for it below. During its playtime yesterday Bosco tried the act without the aid of the net. When the monk reached the floor it was with a hard and sudden finish. Its yells could be heard throughout the big bullding. An examination showed that heyond a few bruises Bosco was unhurt, though it took consideral ble coaxi; have it do its act in the evenlng.u 5 —— The Assignee Sale of Clothing Will seil to-morrow 750 all-wool men's suits and overcoats, worth $18, for $4 6. ut plain dots and yet how attractive! colors we have popular for dresses or The kind you like to get a Galoons. 9e¢, 2 as sim- zigzag dainty, inches This is the stock of clothing that was manufactured by Brooker Brothers of New York.
