PATENT RIGHT SECURED. .
The Best Labor-Saving Clothes Cleanel
ever invented.
Thomas Greene, sole Proprietor of tn
Patent Right for the Pacific Coast

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce a complete revolut on in any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, year ago,
that the dirtiest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty or thirty minutes, by boiling alone,
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond any
doubt that this process not only cleans the Clothes
but that garments thus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such surpostion has
foundation in fact, and is conradicted by the ex-
perience of every lady who has adopted t his mode
of washing
Everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
its operations. 1t must be seen to be fully appre-
ciated, its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in ordinary advertisement
Public and private tests have been given Of this
apparatus for the last six months and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers were sold in New York City in less
than FIVE onths, from one stand, and at this time
the orders reach about one hundred day. No
one ever used it as directed that did not recommend
it. 1t has been recommended by moro than five
thousand persons in less than six months. Among
the names those of the most distinguished cit
liens of the United States but the best recommen-
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just you directed and you will be more than
satisfi ed. 1t appeals to all as matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment. 1t will return yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT ION the
money invested. For instance, we will suppose
your white clothing such as bed and table linen,
ladies and gentlemens wear, and childrens cloth
ing, only cost you $40 year. They will last twice
as long washed in this way by the old method.
Thus, you actually save $50 year by investing 10
or 200 per cent. annually. There is no family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
is taken a very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con
venience and comfort of the thing which, all taken
together, makes it luxury which no family can
well afford to be without.
This Boiler sells the best of any article ever offer
ID to the public. Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let il 50 out of of the house.

Bound Over.

The Chinaman, All Ying, who recently
murdered one of his partners, and attempt
ed to murder another, was examined before
Justice Knox, March 24th. We Tick,
the Chinaman who narrowly escaped death
at the hands of All Ying, testified that the
defendent was the identical rat-eating cuss
who murdered his partner near Whisky
town, and then attempted to kill him. We
Tick swore that the aforesaid All Ying got
up before daylight on the morning of March
4th, lit a candle, and then suddenly assault
ed him, while in bed, with dagger and
hatchet, soon rendering him insensible.-
On recovering his senses, We Tick discov-
cred All Ying industriously engaged in
chopping ard cutting up his partner, now
deceased. Not wishing to see any further
demonstrations in that line We Tick jump
ed up and skedaddled to a neighboring
cabin and gave the alarm. There he also
discovered that his belt containing $50 had
been cut off while he was laying insensible
in his cabin.
1t appeared from other testimony that
the defendant, after discovering the escape
of We Tick, visited Chinese camp not
far off and reported that We Tick had killed
one partner and attempted to kill him also,
but that he had succeeded in effecting his
escape by virtue of his long legs and light
clogs. After making this report All Ying
soon discovered that he had pressing bus
mess at French Gulch, and left for that
locality, where he remained until arrested
1t was stated and is generally believed
that All Ying appropriated the money
known to have been on the person of his
deceased partner, and that he attempted to
go into the wholesale numbering business
for the purpose of making raise"
The Court, after hearing all the testimony
adduced, ordered All Ying to jail to await
the action of the Grand Jury.

Furnishing Liquor to Indians

On Monday, Doctor Milo Beatty, colored,
was arrested by Under Sheriff jackson,
and taken before Justice Downer on charge
of furnishing spirituous liquors to Indians
District Attorney Taylor, prosecuted the
case, and Joseph Isaacs Esq acted as at
torney for the defendant Some eight or
nine witnesses were introduced for the
prosecution, and three or four were exam
ined for the defense The case was not
concluded until Tuesday, when Justice
Downer decided that the testimony was
sufficient to sustain the charge brought
against the defendant. The Court then,
m the presence of crowd of spectators,
remarked as follows
ain rendering the Judgement of the
Court in this case, it will be observed that
the decision is based upon the Special Laws
of the State of California, in relation to
Indians, Sections l, 6, II, Is and 19
For the protection of citizens, and the
good order of society, it is necessary that
these laws should be executed-especially
in regard to giving, selling, or furnishing
splrituous liquors to Indians--who, when
they become intoxicated, are unsafe and
extremely dangerous to the community
endangering the security of property and
life and being insulting to females and
children, as has been frequently shown in
this county within short period, in con.
sequence of spirituous liquors having been
furnished to them by parties in defiance of
law. The defendant in this suit has been
convicted of having given spirituous
liquors to Indians contrary to the statute
and is therefore ameniable to punishment by
the law.
Therefore the judgement of the Court is
that the defendant, Doctor Beatty, be fined
in the sum of forty dollars, and be i'm.
prisonedin the County Jail of Shasta county,
until the fine is paid-confnmen not to
exceed twenty days.
For want of payment of the fine he is
committed"

On Wednesday, at the earnest request
of Doctor Milo Beatty to "see some
of dem boys what make de newscomepaper,"
we sent reporter to interview" him
at his temporary residence in the lock-
up. On entering the main room of the
Jail, our reporter found therein the Doctor,
and All Ying, the champion Mongolian
"carver" from Whiskytown.
The following highly interesting confab
then ensued
Reporter-Well, Doc you appear to be
out of luck. How did you come to put up
at this hotel
Doctor-Hush, honey, don't talk loud

desc holes (pointing to the row of dark
cells) waitin' to gobble dat bad Chinaman

FIRE.-On Sunday, the residence Of
Mrs. Sarah Cooper caught fire, but the
flames were suppressed before before max
ing much headway. On Monday, some
wood piled up around the stove in the up
per story of the public school house caught
fire, but the danger was discovered in time
to prevent the destruction of that noble
edifce of which the citizens of Shasta are
so justly proud.

The importation ofrags from Mediter-
rancan, hides from Brazil, and other COM
modities from the tropics, is known to bring
the germs of disease, chiefly fevers, which
are sometimes very affecting and fatal,
AYERS AGUE CURE stimulates the Liver
to excrete these germs from the system as
effecually as it does the miasmatic poison
of our ague districts. Consequently it
affords invaluable protection to stevedores
and others whose occupations expose them

Directions.

Fill The boiler with soft water to within about
three inches Of the top of the inside b er. Slice
up one pound bar of good hard soap.
Bring the water to a boil, and then place the
clothes in the hot water. The water will imme-
dately pour the shell all around, and if it
boils over raise the lid.
Keep up hot fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out and Immediately SUDS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs will take it all out. Then
rinse them in clean water, wiring dry, and the wash
ing is DONE Give particular heed to the following
SUGGESTIONS.
The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital importance to THOR
0UGHLY SUDS hecothing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. brisk fire is important in order to PRO-
duce rapid boiling Time may be saved by stirring
or turning the clothes occasionally while boiling.
The cover shoald not be removed, except when
necessary, in order to insure quick work. If the
washing be large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, as dirty Shirts for instance will REQUIRE
double the time of sheets, pillow cases, napkins,
&c.
Articles much soiled may be left in for second
boiling White fannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rinsed
out in hot water.
Colored clothes should not be mixed with white,
and unless the coors fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces,
cambrics, &C., such would nearly fall to pieces
If washed in the ordinary way, may be was he'd per-
fectly, without injury, by this process The almost
absolute necessity Of using soft, or "broken, %
water, is SO well understood as to hardly need
mention here.
No machine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty wristbands and Collars
This Selfwasbing Boiler more nearly does it than
any Other. device. Should shade or streak remain.
it will be found to be reduced and softened as To
disappear without the use of wash board. by
merely rubbing them with the hands, thus avoiding
all the wear and tear of clothing by washing. 1t
has been carefully estimated that clothing receive,
more than 0NE-HALF ITS WEAR by the old
process of RUBBING, and consequently will las,
twice as long if washed by this new process. which
alone would pay for a Boiler many times during
single year. in almost any family to say nothing
OF the important consideration cf saving labor.

not however involve any question whatever

GIVING LIQUOR TO INDIANS There
is no doubt but that the law against selling
or furnishing liquor to Indians has hereto
fore been disregarded or evaded by more
than one party in this county Whoever
furnishes liquor to savages can be regarded
in no other light than as an enemy to the
general public, as he thereby incites vio-
lence and crime. The guilty had better
stop their unlawful practice if they have
any aversion to fines and imprisonment
