made out the will over signature that Nose

shown us yesterday, and by the bungling un-
professional manner it is crowded together we
are inclined TO the opinion that the manipu-
ators were not artists in their bushes.

California of that day, is supposed to have

duly admitted to probate, proven, and almost
Immediately the entire estate was sold at

set up. Immediately following THIS Meioney

we learn that Nose Flanagan will soon die,

day Mr.. Brcderiok was supposed to have
signed that will he was visiting the residence
of the Honorable John lIaskin, of New York,
and could not positively have been near New
York city. Iiaskin still lives, but knows
nothing about the will itself. During all
these years those gentlemen have preserved

peculiarly Of the death Of these men. The
real heirs of this estate are applying to-day
in San Francisco for their vested rights through
the proper legal channels. Il is to be hoped
that they may get their dues, and the sins of

CnGratefnl Set.

The robbery, last week, of. the house OF
Hon. j. w. Coffroth. of Sacramento, shows
that thieves are most ungrateful set of vag-
abonds, for no man has kept more Of them
from going to the State Prison. This is the
second time that Cofroth has been victmiz-
ed. He once had a little highway experience
in the upper end Of Sonoma county while
en- route to defend party at Ukiah. just as
"the shades of night were falling FAST" a
couple OF hard-looking customers suddenly
sprang out of the brush on the roadside, and
brought ''the learned counsel" to a sudden
halt. One of the scoundrels seized the horses
by the bride, while the other poked his
shooting-ron within few inches of Coffroth's
head and demanded bis money. "Jeems'

luctantly granted. As preliminary, how

Algerine with its few scattered houses and
sparse population still exists, but presents o
lonely and deserted appearance. On all sides
the tourist beholds the work Of the departed
miners, who years ago piled the pick and
shovel, and on every mound and gulch, and
away upon the hill sides are still to be seen
the wrecks of their cabins, old battered coffee
pots, broken crokeryware, old gum boots
and rotten clothing lie scattered around the
fallen chimneys, bringing up many sad
thought as we pass them by. The years have
fed like dream, and scarce one in hundred
who sought fortune years ago in the creeks
and gulches around Algerine remain. A few
lie under the sod upon the hill that overlooks
the Camp--but the hundreds that orce delv-
ed after the precious metal have vanished and
left only the upturned rocks and naked fats
as remembrance. A few old gray muzzled
miners still ply their vocation amongst the
tailings and slum, but they wear weary and
detected look and their eyes express no hope
of ever getting out of the wilderness. In con-
versatior with one, the question was asked,
"Why not abandon this miserable vagabond
life?" Why spend your few remaining years
fishing after mere pittance amongst old tail
ings? The reply was, II cannot. have fol-
lowed this kind of life so long that it has
been ground into me, and become part of
my nature, and feel that am not fitted for
anything else, beside the time has past and

back upon me and | saw year after year go

accident expect to live and die toiling in the

last old gray head sleeps beneath the sod, is
the prayer of one who knows them, j. n.

IMITATION or HUMAN HAIR.-In a recent
article upon the trade in human hair it is
stated that patent has recently teen taken

successful as to render it almost impossible
to distinguish the real article from the iInita-
ton. This will be good news not only to the
dealers in hair. who might apprehend the ex-
haustion of their source Of supply, but also to

saws that he has used sulphur for more than
twenty years. with benefit TO prevent rot in

some suppose bnt bv an insect, which pune
lures the grapes probably for the purpose Of
depnsiting Its eggs. Upon this discovery is
based the sulphur remedy for the rot, as sui
