Instructions to Sctllen.
J. H. Evans, Register of the U. S.
Laud office at Lakeview, publishes thu
following instructions to settlers in the
Lakeview "Herald." In view of the
constant troubln and disappoint
ment to which settlers ore often sub
jected in consequence of ignorance of
the law and the requiiements of the
general land office, I deem it of inter
est to make known a few points which
must be strictly complied with.
First, in making final proof, it is
neccesary the claimant name such of
his neighbors as are capable of testi
fying as to the dale of his settlement
and the first act thereof.
Second, that he shall name four of
his neighbors as such witnesses. The
department presumes that, out of the
four, two at least may be obtained to
testify on I he day iiumcd for making
final oroof.
Third, that no relative of the claim
ant will be permitted to testify unless
he is unable to make proof of residence
settlement, itc, by other parties, of
which fact an affidavit will be ex icted.
The foregoing aro instructions of the
general land office, and the Register
and Receiver have no authority to set
aside. Settlers are therefore requested
to take due notice thereof.
C. C. W. R. The Del Norte, Cal.,
Supervisors made the following order

shown that it would be advisable and
beneficial to have saiil road, now, it is
ordered by the Board ilnt said report
and survoy is received and approved,
and that such approval be entered on
the minutes of the B ard, and the said
Horace Gasquet isautiiorized to use all
public lands over which said survey
runs, and if any such highways theie
be, he must at his own expense so
change and open tho highway so taken
and used as to make the same as good
as it was before the appropriation
thereof; and he must so construct all
crosings of public highways over and
by his toad, and his toll gate as not to
hinder or obsti uct the use of the same.
IIolliv;ay's Pills Never Despair
Something that never fails Fever
and Ague To tho sick it is of little
consequence how they ate cured,
whether from a rational view of the
disease or by the rules defined for th
guidance of the piofession, so long as
the cure is certain and expeditious.
To a sullering man the question on the
lelative merits of quinine or calomel- is
uninteiesting. Tho faculty may
wrangle and discuss their various theor
ies, but Dr. Holloway's treatment dis
pels doubt ere the disciples of E-cuhi
pius have finished the first stage.
Ilo'.Iowav's Pills are the only remedies
which effect a speedy and radical cure
without danger of a l elapse. Read

a liighwavinan on Biss Hill, last Sat

sent up to the North pole or there
abouts to look for tho ill fated Jean
nette which went in search of the much
mooted open Polar sea. Captain Hoop
er has not found the Jeannctte or any
traces of her, but he has found a block
of ice a few doors south of the North
pole, which ha, since its discovery
about fifty years ago, been called
Wrangel Land. This land, for there is
supposed to bo some land under the
ice, he has taken possession of in the
name of the United States and re
christened New Columbia, and now the
American flag it it is not frozen stiff
floats triumphantly over this new
possession. It is a pretty big stretch
for "the American eagle to plant one
foot proudly on the frozen shores of
New Columbia while he gracefully
dabbles the other in the middle of the
Rio Grande and to wash his face in the
placid waters of the Pacific while he
rests, his tail on the Atlantic beach;
but then he is a big bird and there Js
no telling wh it he can do on a stretch.
Already some painfully practical peo
ple are trying to find out what good this
new possession is going to do u.
There are a great many ways in which
it might be profitably, and pleasantly
utilized. For instance it might be mndo
a colony for the settlement of those' en
terprising individuals who are opposed
to railroad?. It would be a nice cool
place where they could spend their
days in sliding down hill and their
evenings in meditating upon the de
structive influences of cheap and rapid
transportation and all undisturbed bv
the faintest whisper of a locomotive.
And then us there would havo to be
a Governor appointed some one of thu
fiery southern brigadiers might bo ac
comodated with an office and change of
climate nt the same time; this too
without expense to the government as
he might be allowed, for the first few
years at least, all the taxc3 he could
levy and collect.

The one event of the week was the
race ran over the course on Saturday
last. Pools w ere sold on Friday even
ing to the air.ouut of several dollars,
and as them were six horses entered,
there were three or four first choice, as
was also the case when pool selling
commenced on the day of the race. A
large crowd was in attendance and ex
citement for favorites run high. About
two o'clock tho horses were called to
the stand, where the riders received
their instructions and the horses given
their jositions for the start. After
seveial efforts a good start was given
tho contesting studs and they were led
by Hard Bargain for about two think
the distance of the heat, (which was a
half mil", best 2 in 3) when the Parrott
horse passed him and maintained his
position until lie came under the wire
ni oli. The second heat was a repoti
ti m of the first, except that Parrott
tuok the lead at the start and kept it
during the entire heat, winning the
heat in 55. As is generally the case,
a number of the sports weie loser and
a second race made which was won
by Joie Young. These races were
considered by ufl the fairest that has
been run over the course during the
entire season; but there is always .some
one to take exceptions to the ruling
of the judges, and such was the case
this time by a certain individual who
had been imbibing too much "hilarity;"
but he withdrew his objections after
the ruling of Judge Keams, which
was mat'.e in tho whereabouts of the
voung man's eyes, to the satisfaction of
all present.
A race was also run on Sunday
which terminated in the withdrawal of
stakes, a too fiee use of whisky nud a
tistcutl'by the backers. This lace was
followed by what is known as a
"chuck" race gotten up by some of the
boys who wanted to play even on the
races of tho previous dav; but the
rider of the "chuck" horse being un
able to hold her, the sports were again
loser. This ends the turf sports for
the week.
