of his fine- "Sir Vnlter" colt on Satur

covered it dead in the pasture and on
the day previous it. had been been

Pnor. KuoLEn's Concert. The in
strumental convert given by Mr. Kug
li r ard H' feral select pupils, Misses
fame Beekman, Ida Fisher, Ida Piim,
Eha Prim and Rosa Mensor was well
Attended by a select and appreciative
audience. The iuumc rendered was all
classic and its performance gave evi
dence of high profiency in the pupils.
Prof. Kugler's performance on the
''Zither," the sweetest of all instru
ments, was exquisite and a surprise to
many of the audience who had never
heard the instrument. This is the
traditional instrument with whoso mel
ody the German Shephard beguiles his
chosen maiden aud we wish it might

tones are more Soft and touching than
(tnV thing we have ever heaid. Pi of.
Kugler intends giving another concert
M. some future time and it will, no
doubf, be as well patronized by all
lovers of true music as the last.
Foutunate Escape. On Thursday
si number of our Yrcl:a friends, ladies
iind gentlemen, assembled in a group
on tho balcony of the Orth building
for the purpose of having their photo-fc-nphu
taken to leave as a memento of
their pleasant visit. About twenty
live persons were on the balconj when
1ho iron braces supporting it com
menced to give way causing a general
fright, but verv fortunatelv no person
was precipitated to the street. One
lady, Mrs. James Yance, of Yreka,
fainted and several ethers were badly
frightened, as there was every indica
tion for a few moments that the bal
cony would stfve way entire'y. All's
well that ends well and we are only
too glad not to be obliged to chroniele
a more serious accident. It is said
that the halliards of tho flag staff, fas
tened to the railing of the balconv,
alone prevented a catastrophe by sus
taining the great weight until it was
relieved.
Serious Mishap. On Friday last
Messrs. Peck and Riley, of Yreka,
met with an accident near Ashland
while on their return home with their
wives, that might have had very seri
ous results. By some means one of
the lines was dropped by Mr. Riley,
who was driving, and the team started
to run but Mr. P. with great, presence
of mind and pluck sprang out between
the horses, secured the lines, and in a
few minutes had the team under con
trol. Unfortunately Mrs. Riley jumped
from the vehicle and was picked up
senseless hut soon recovered and was
found to have, received no serious in
jury. Mrs. Peck and Mr. Riley got
off "without a scratch, hut, we are sorry
to sav, Mr. Peck sustained a very pain
ful dislocation of the ankle joint and
narrowly escaped with his life, which
he risked in jumping between the
horses. The pavty were forced to re
main at Ashlanti and went to Cole's on
Saturday.

A correspondent to the "Lakeview
Herald" says: "John Jackson, who
wintered a band of young cattle at Dog
lake, met with vt heavy loss a few days
since. His calves were attacked by
four huge grizzlies and over a hundrrd
head were killed by them. Denny
and Martin, two noted hunters of
Drew's creek, went after the "var
mints," and succeeded in killing them.
The successful ninirods now wear griz
zly claws for ornaments, and live on
"bar meat."
Ashland has passed an ordinance fix
ing the license for the sale of spiritous
malt or vinous liquors in quantities less
ttian one quart at 5200 per year. This
is thought to be prohibiting but we
don't see it Beer can be bought by
the quart and from experience we
know that it don't take a bucket full
to produce similar effects to those pro
duced by any kind of "tangle foot"
Tha introduction of magnets into all
the great flouring mills has been a rev
elation to the millers who complained
of wire in wheat Not only have the
magnets captured all the stray pieces
of iron bauds, and thus removed the
last objection urged against iron-binding
harvesters, but they have revealed
the startling iact, that, of the scraps of
iron aud steel that find their way to
the mill mixed with wheat, fully one
half are something besides pieces of
wire, and of such a nature as t'' be
even more dangeious to the mill ma
chinery. Singular Storm. McMahon, the
Butte creek mail-carrier, describes a
furious hail storm that swept over the
valley near "Linkswilers" on Friday.
The storm was about a mile and a half
wide, its direction North nnd South,
aud in less than half an hour the hail
stones were a foot in depth. Fortun
ately grain was not far enough to be
injured or there would have been se
rious damage done. Truly, the weath
er is becoming very eccentric
IS THIS A FKCC COESTltT?-
We supposed that wo lived under a
free government, but find that some of
the features of tho census law are the
cream of impudence and the very es
sence of tyranny. Just think of the
injustice of compelling a lady of un
certain age to stand up and answer
truly the day and year of her birth
with the full knowledge that it will be
spread on the record and forever estop
tne slightest attempt to protect her
dearest rights by innocent prevarica
tion. It is awfull and the vile deter
mination to know every woman's age
in Washington is the legitimate and
dangerous result of the Centralization
doctrine applied by a Democratic Con
gress and we may well ask: where are
the "undying principles" we hear so
much of and where is the Goddess of
Liberty? gone perhaps where no im
pudent census-taker will ask impertin
ent questions. Wo advise every one,
however, to look the census man
square in the face and answer up truly
under penalty notwithstanding this
is the worst "slam" liberty ever ex
perienced. -: - - :
Suicide in Jail. On Sunday at
ternoon Tong the Chinaman confined
in jail on a charge of sluice robbery
succeeded by hanging himself in his
cell. The iailor, Capt. Caton, had
seen the prisoner about an hour prior
to the discovery of tho act and had
gone up town to procure a little opium
for him from some of his countrymen.
Returning to the jail about 4 P. M., he
called to the Chinaman but getting no
answer he opened his" cell and found
him hanging by the neck to one of tho
bars in the little window of his cell.
The poor Wretch had torn up his1 bed
tick, making a rope from the strips,
and by the aid of a chair tied it to the
bar; then kicking the chair from be
neath him, his troubles were soon end
ed, so far as this world is concerned.
When the discovery was made, the
jail was full of smoke, Tong having set
fire to his bedding, having probably
been furnished matches from the out
side but the fire was soon extinguished.
The suicide left on the wall of the
corridor and inside his cell, Chinese
characters made by tearing pieces of
newspaper, which on interpretation,
proved to be a declaration of inno
cence. Tong had been sick during his
imprisonment, and having but few
friends among his countrymen, he pre
ferred death to a long term in the Pen
itentiary which he was almost certain
to receive. On Monday Justice Huf
fer summoned a Coroner's jury who
found a verdict in accordance with
the above facts.
The Bold Baron. It seems that
the "Baron von Murtage," who was
arrested here in April, on suspicion of
being the murderer, Brumfield, is
wanted in several localities in Califor
nia that have been herelciqro" graced
with his presence. Marshal Crosby
has received a letter from an old gen
tleman named Werner, from Pajaro,
Monterey county, describing the rascal
perfectly and detailing his swindle on
a kind-hearted family that sheltered
and nursed him during a pretended
sickness. Sheriff Bybee also received a
despatch from Ukiah, Mendocino Co.,
asking in affectionate terms for the
bogus nobleman and expressing the
hone that he was still the truest of the
county and under the especial care of
the Sheriff. This scoundrel should be
widely advertised and the scar on his
forehead, the moles on his left cheek,
the crooked forefinger on left hand and
his wavy hair should lead to his easy
identification. In Monterey county he
passed as Wilhelm Miller aud here,
claimed to be Lieut Miller.
The Game Law. The slaughter of
game in this county has been so wan
ton and unnecessary for several years
that a new game law is badly needed.
This is supposed to bo a month in the
"close" season, yet a hunting party on
Big Butte brought in, a week ago, six
teen deer and another party several
elk. Judging from the immense num
ber of deer skins that come in from
that region we should think that half
the population is engaged in hunting
and if the whole population were to
subsist entirely on venison they could
not eat all that was covered with those
pelts. California 'has just passed a
game law that declares any person,
wdio is found in posession of any game,
during the season when it is unlawful
to kill it, is guilty of a misdemeanor
and such possession shall be "prima
facie" evidence of guilt We need
just such a law in Oregon uhd we will
oppose any candidate for the Legisla
ture who will not pledge himself to
work for its passage.
Buy no sewing machine upon the rec
commendatiou of agents, or other inter
ested parties. Examine foryourself and
let common sense guide you in your se
lection, always remembering that the
best is the cheapest Many thousands of
persons have purchased inferior 'ma
chines, used them a month or two, and
then traded them offat one-fourth their
cost, simply because they did not stand
the test when in practical use. mat
old reliable machine, the Singer, has
stood the tet for thirty-five years, and
has never been found wanting when
called upon to do any kind of work.
The people appreciate this machine,
having purchased over 3,000,000 of
them, and the sales of the Singer com
pany exceed those df all other com
panies combined. Last year's sales
were over 431,000.

THE GRAND CLLLBBATIOX.
The celebration of the anniversary
day of the "Improved Order of Rod
Men" (May 12th) for which prepara
tions had been so long in progress was
certainly a great success and an event'
leng to be remembered in Jacksonville.
The following visitors, members of the
order, were present from Yreka, hav
ing arrived on Tuesday:
Mr and Mrs. Geo. H. Peck, Mr.
and Mrs. E. H. Schofield, Mr. and
Mrs. F. Riley, Mr. and Mrs. E. J.
Muuroe, James Yance and lady, Dr.
D. Ream, and lady, Mr. and Mrs. E.
Rainous, S. J. Souls and daughter, A.
W. Niles and lady, J. Niles and lady,
W. A. B. Mills and tiride, Mr. and
Mrs. Theobald Young, Mrs. A. H.
Burrows, Miss Delia Winkler, Miss
Sophie Winkler, Miss M. DeWitt,
Miss Clara Dovey, Miss Emma Schla
gle, Mrs. Thos. Orr and daughter, L.
Nordheim, A. D. Terwilliger, Chas.
LeBeau and R. E. Gibbs.
On Tuesday afternoon the dedica
tion ceremonies were performed in the
new hall of the Order and the visiters
from across the mountains were quietly
distributed among their friends as the
guests of the city. The weather had
been most unpropitious but on Wed
nesday about ten o'clock the members
of "Pocahontas" Lodge No. 1 of Jack
sonville and a large delegation from
"Klamath" and "leka" Tribes of Cali
fornia, clothed in their gay regalia,
formed a line of march anil escorted by
the band, proceeded to the District
school house. After some fine music
by the band, the Glee Club, composed
of Misses Cora and Maggie Linn, Kate
Dorwin, Tilly Miller, Minnie Pape,
Belle Young and Messrs. Dunlap,
Wise, H. Pape Sr., and R. H. Klippel
with Miss Ida Klippel as organist ren
dered some very beautiful vocal music.
Next followed the reading of the dis
pensation. Next the oration by E. I ).
Foudray which was a masterly and ex
haustive history of the order, its organ
ization and its objects, but which was
delivered in too low a tone to be audi
ble throughout the whole assemblage.
After more delightful music bv the
Glee Club, Mr. R. A. Miller recited
the exquisite poem written by
Saral. L. Simpson for the occasion and
it was recited in Mr. Miller's very best
style. After the poem the band per
formed some excellent pieces and the
procession re-formed, marching to the
"Wigwam" for dismissal, from whence
they proceeded to the large dining
room of Madame Holt's new Hotel, ac
companied by their ladies, where an
elegant collation had been spread.
This was the event of the day. A
large number of guests, including the
presiding officers of the various Orders,
town officials', and members of the
Press had been invited and nlthougl
circumstances prevented a full ntten
dance of the Sentinel corps, the cour
tesy of tho invitation was no less ap
preciable. The table, spread with del
icacies, was adorned and beautified in s
manner that showed the artistic taste
of the lacl) managers. It is long since
there has been so pleasant and
convivial a gathering. Many pleas
ant nnd appropriate toasts and res
ponses were given and altogether it
was a most enjoyable affair. The
grand ball in the evening was the next
feature of the celebration. The im
mense hall was tastefully decorated
and at an early hour, notwithstanding
its great capacity, it was almost un
comfortably crowded at times there
being sixteen sets on the floor, (154
tickets being taken,) and a large num
ber of the usual "wall flowers." It is
estimated that there were not less than
four hundred persons in the hall by
ten o'clock, but the management was
excellent and in spite of many entan
gling trains the order was very mark
ed. The acoustic properties of the new
hall are splendid and the music of
course sounded unusually well. The
supper table was superb and the ar
tists who prepared it are deserving
the highest praise for taste and care.
It was, without exception, the most
beautiful spread of delicious viands
that Jacksonville has ever witnessed,
entirely prepared by the ladies of the
order, and full justice was done to it.
Dancing continued until 4:30 A. M.
and there was nothing heard but ex
pressions of gratification at the splen
did success of the whole affair.
On Thursday evening there was an
other assemblage at the "Wigwam,"
several hours being spent very pleas
antly by the fraternity and their lady
friends and ending in another collation
and a pleasant dance at the Club Room
which had been kindly tendered by the
Young Men's Library and Reading
Roodis Association. On Friday morn
ing most of the guests took tlfeir de
parture for home with the good wishes
of the community and many could have
lingered longer. So ended the most
delightful affair we have had for many
years and our friends from across the
great mountain chain that divides the
sister States left with the feeling that
Stato boundaries do not sever the ties
of friendship, nor mountains, ever so
high break that mystic chain that
binds together all true humanity. We
hope to see another such pleasant re
union as we cannot but think that like
commerce, sociability of this kind is
among the greatest of civilizing influ
ences. OKLCO.Y KIDNEY TEA.
