THE ODD FELLOWS VIsIT.-On Thurs
day night about sixty members of the
independent Order of Odd Fellows Of
this city played return game OF hav.
ing a good time with their brethren Of
Good Will and Jefferson Lodges Of
Steubenville, Ohio. There never was a
bigger-hearted, freer, nobler set Of men
than those Steubenvillians, and it is no
wonder that some Of their visitors did
not wish to leave at all.
The visitors we're met at the depot IN
Steubenville by the brethren Of that vii
lage and brass band, and were escorted
to the lodge room, where an address Of
welcome was delivered by P. G. w.
Kerlin, who briefly but eloquently re-
ferred to the happiness that always
grows from such social intercourse, and
on behalf of the brethren of Steuben-
vile extended hearty, fervent and
friendly welcome to the visitors from
Wheeling.
After brief time passed in inter
change of thought and sentiment, the
Wheelingites were escorted to Kilgore
Hall, where was prepared royal re-
pasta feast for the gods We could
but admire the orderly, speedy and
thorough manner in which the guests
and the vast number OF Odd Fellows
who sat down to supper were served
Hardly was a want uttered before II
was supplied, and brotherly love, hap
piness and jollity were the sauces that
seasoned every dish.
After supper Bro. Wallace, n. G. o
Pamela Lodge No. II, Of Wheeling
was chosen Chairman Of the evening
and then the fun began. We never
saw a crowd Of men enjoy themselves
better.
The Odd Fellows Of Steubenvill'
have by their management Of this al
fair added to the high reputation the,
had before acquired as wholesouled
hospitable, liberal gentlemen, and drawn
closer the ties that bind the brethren
here to them. We give the Rip Val
Wrinkle toast. "Their good health an'
their families, may they live long an'
prosper"
The visiting brethren returned t
their homes in this city yesterda,
morning, the railroad company havfh'
failed to bring them back the SAM
night, for some reason not yet explained
to our satisfaction. They are unanlmou
in their thanks to their brethren o
Steubenville for providing for them on
of the most enjoyable evenings the.
ever passed.

LOST HIS Hat AND BOoTS.-One Of the
independent order Of ealoots who night
ly sleep around the stove in the police
court room for want of better lolgment,
was robbed, night before last, of his
hat and boots, which, strange to say,
were worth the stealing. Yesterday he
had our honest and distinguished friend
Boose Leasure arrested, charged with
the larceny. Boose denied it, however,
and galoot couldn't prove that he did,
so Boosey was discharged.

prehensions that he has been taking

FINISuED.-The dangerous work OF
stating the tail spire Of st. Matthews
Church was finished yesterday about
noon, and the daring and dextrous
slater, Mr. John Welsh, ornamented
the top of the spire with a small flag as
a token Of his success. This spire
makes the twenty-fourth that Mr..
Welsh has slated, and we congratulate
him on the skillful manner in which he
performs his dizzy labors.

A Lion.

Last Sunday, as Mrs. Hill was passing
along the road leading from N. Earring
toms to Porter Seaman's ranch, she was
almost paralyzed with terror at beholding a
huge California lion standing by the way
side, within forty feet of her, and lashing
its sides with its tail By an involunta-
ry motion Mrs. II. threw up her hands, in
which she held her shawl, and the mo-
tion probably saved her life, for the futter-
ing of the garment seemed to intimidate
the lion and it withdrew some distance
further from the road. Mrs. Hill then
hurried on to Farrington's and related her
adventure, and Harrington took his gun
and dogs and started out to prospect for the
lion, but failed to get sight Of it, although
he found that it had returned to the road
after Mrs. Hill saw it, and had followed
her track for several hundred yards.
Harrington has found a portion Of the re-
mains of number of his hogs in the woods
about his place lately and he is now satisi-
ed what killed them.

SHASTA COURI Z r.
SATURDAY MORNING, OCT. %, 1870.
Railroad.

The Central Pacific Railroad Company,
which owns the California and Oregon
franchise, have asked the Board OF Super
visors of Tehama county to call special
election for the purpose of submitting to
The voters Of that county the proposition
of issuing county bonds to the amount of
twenty five hundred dollars per mile, as a
subsidy to said Company, when the rail
road is completed to-the boundary line of
Shasta. Many Of the most intelligent men
and heaviest tax payers of our neighboring
county have signed petition favoring the
calling of a special election, thinking that
the proposition OF granting bonds would
be carried in the affirmative by the voters
Of the county, aud that the general inter-
ests of Tehama would be greatly enhanced
by extending aid and encouragement to
the Railroad Company.
1t is thought that the cars will run to
Deer Greek, and possibly to Iehama, BY
the middle of November, unless the heavy
rains set in and cause a cessation Of work,
before that tine.
The general impression, from all that
can be learned from members and employ
eespf the Company, is that the road, when
built through this county, will either run
through the town of Shasta, or between
here and the Sacramento river Wethink
it will ultimately run through the town,
and have substantial reasons whereon to
base that opinion

Miners Tax.

We are always willing to admit ourself
wrong when we see evidence of the fact
We viii also state for the information of
the editor of the Yreka Union that our ar
ticle of the 18th on the subject of Foreign
Miners tax was written previous to our
having read the Act of Congress, and that
we are now satisfied that our remarks and
conclusions were based on false premises,
and that in the light of the actual facts of
the case, were without application. Until
we read the bill we could not conceive that
U. S. Congress could be duped into the
passage of an act so reprehensible, and we
think our delegation in that body will GER
tainly secure its repeal.
We are also surprised at the unprofes-
sional and discourteous style in which the
Union alludes to us; personal abuse is not
intelligent criticism.

Wood.

The report having been circulated about
town that certsin officials, ourself in
cludsd,, who for personal convenience have
their. Offices outside of the Court House,
get their fre-wood at the expense of the
County, We take this occasion to state that
90 far as we are concerned the report is
false. We have never yet burned a stick
Of wood at the county's expense, and do
not expect to do so.
SO far as the Treasurer's Office is concern
ed, We think it no more than right that
the County should supply it with three or
four cords of ~ood per gear, as small Offset
for the use ofthe safe Of Wells, Fargo & Co.

Narrow Escape.

Recently while A. Sanford and another
man were exploring in the Bull Hill tup-
mel, several hundred yards from its mouth
huge cave took place several feet from
where they were standing. On attempt
ing to retraee their way out of the tunnel
they found that the cave had Just barely
left room for them to crawl through on
their hands and feet. Certainly narrow
escape from being buried alive, as no other
parties would probably have visited the de.
serted tunnel for months.

More Fire.

A destructive Ere has been raging in the
Shingletown pinery for some time past,
and last week it extended to the Immediate
vicinity of R. Klotz's residence and lum-
Der mill, and the entire property was only
saved from destruction by the prompt and
determined exertions OF the owner and his
employees. Thousands upon thousands of
dollars worth of timber has been destroyed
in this county this fall by fires started by
set of nomadic vagabonds and vandals
who ought to be severely punished.
