BALL AT AUBURN On the 30th of this month,
says the Grass Valley Union, there is to be fancy
dress ball at Auburn. The Auburn people are in
the habit of getting up the most pleasant social
entertainments to be found in California. On
Thanksgiving day, our boss says, the ball will be
worth attending as there are more pretty girls in
and around Auburn who will be there than can
be found elsewhere, Grass Valley excepted. The
music at Auburn will be under the direction OF
Mr.. Dewey of this place.
The Unton Is correct, and this will doubt
less be the finest ball ever held in the noun
tains. Aside from the handsome and en-
tertaining ladies Of Auburn, many are ex-
pected from neighboring towns and counties.
The invitation includes the Union office.

HERE is another wet weather sign: The
Indians in Kern county say we are going to
have heavy winter. They arrive at this
conclusion from the fact that the bear tracks
are deeply indented in the ground. The
reason why the tracks are deep is because the
bear is heavy; the reason why he is heavy is
because he is fat, and the reason why he is
fat is because he has made himself SO in an
,icipation Of the long Winter, during which
he will have to hole himself up and live off
of his own greasiness. 1t is barely possible

The Grand Duke in Boston.

The musical exercises in Boston, on the occasion of the visit of the Grand Duke, lasted one hour-from four till five. After the voluntary on the organ, came the Grand March of Welcome, which was the special feature of the oc- casion. Gilmore's Band was ill attend ance, and, with the organ, contributed to the instrumental part of the entertain ment, the vocal music being rendered by the school-children. The Grand March of Welcome introduced the Russian Ma tional Hymn, played by the band and the organ, and at that point the 1,2OO children waved miniature flags, the Rus sian and American alternating. Then the great choir of 200 children, accom- panied by the full orchestra and the or gan, sang in unison the Ode of Vel come, composed by Oliver Wendell Holmes for the occasion. The air was the Russian Hymn, and the Grand Duke and suit arose at the beginning and re- mained standing while the stanzas were being sung. His Imperial Highness ap- peared to be impressed by the words and music of this song.
 THE ODE OF WELCOME. Shadowod so long by the storm-clond of danger Thou whom the prayers of Empire defend; Welcome, thrice welcome but not as stranger Come to the nation that calls thee it's friend Bleak are our shores with the blasts of De,
 cember,
 Fettered and chill is the rivulets flow; Throbbing and warm are the hearts that re-
 member Where was our friend when the world was
 our foe.
 Look on the lips that arc smiling to greet thee See the fresh flowers that people has strewn Count them thy sisters and brothers that meet
 thee;
 Guest of the nation, her heart is thine own. Fires of the North, in eternal communion,
 Blend your broad flashes with evening"
 bright star;
 God bless the empire that loves the grea Union;
 Strength to her people Long life to the Czar

They Read But Don't Pay.

"It not unfrequently occurs, when persons are asked if they will subscribe for local newspaper, or if they already take it, that they reply-'No, but neigh Dor B. takes it, and Ihace tue reading o1 aeuery week.' They are benefHed every ,ceek by the tolls, perplexities, and ex- penditures of those who receive nothing from them in return. :" -
 The above truth, clipped from an ex, change, should be copied and re-copled in every country paper, until the trouble is abated. The publisher of newspa- per, depending, as he does in measure, upon his subscription list for support, naturally expects each family who desire to read his paper to subscribe for 1t Ii they can afford it. Subscribers them selves, as well as publishers, find the newspaper borrower a hrst-class nuls- ance, for he often borrows 1t os the owner is about to read it, retains 1t at certain times when he misses it, and too often, if he returns it at all, the paper IS ln such condition that no one of'nlce sen- abilities would care to read 1t. We would suggest that in towns where the nuisance has become intolerable. the publisher print, when requested, ol stamp in large letters above the heading, Subscribers not permitted to lend this paper" or, ssThis edition not for bor- rowers." The idea would take with sub scribers, and prove gentle hint to the meanest of all misery-makers.-Adoe7' tisers' Gazette.

CORN MUFFNs. s.-Mix together quart of buttermilk, few eggs, some four, and enough meal to form paste. Then add tablespoonful of melted butter, and some salt Then bake 1t in we'll buttered pan.
 A CHEAP WAT TO MAKE BATTER CAKE. Make batter of equal parts of meal and boiling water, add ittte salt, and allow it to become nearly cold. Then mix some yeast with 1t, and when 1t has risen sufficiently, cook it in the usual way.
 PICKLE FOR TONGUES. and porter, each one quart saltpstre, four ounces; bay salt, two pounds; common salt, two pounds. Simmer together and skim, and pour it hot over the tongues, which have been rubbed four days with sugar, salt, and saltpetre. The tongues, having lain in the pickle for eight days, will be fit for use.
 CLIPPING HORSES. Tt has been found that the practice of clipping long, rough coats of horses in the winter season is a benefit in more ways than one. They do not sweat so easily when at work, are less apt to take cold, consume less feed, are more easily kept clean, and in bet ter condition. It is almost impossible to keep a rough-coated horse in good condition-constant and profuse sweat ing prevents him from gaining flesh. Clipping is remedy. The horses ap- pearance is also much improved
 VALUE OF POTATOES AS FEED.-A subscriber asks ms whether potatoes are worth more than twenty-five cents a bushel for feed. We do not think they are worth so much if fed raw, but when cooked we have fed them to stock rather than sell them at forty cents. Potatoes contain 8 large percentage of starch (from eleven to twenty per cent), are es- timated to be worth more than carrots, and half as much as hay, weight for weight, but if fed raw, much of the starch, which would be utilized if they were cooked, escapes undigested.
 To RENDER BooTs AND SHOES WATER PRooF.-To make boots proof against snow and wet, take one part mutton suet and twice that quantity of beeswax melted together apply to the leather al night, and wipe the boots with flame next morning. When the composition is first applied, the leather will not polisf as well as usual when blaoked, yet they will be susceptible ofa brilliant polisl after the backing has been applied few times. The following composition no only renders the leather capable of re sisting wet, but also makes it more pli able, softer, and more durable. Dissolv, half an ounce of Burgundy pitsh in hal pint of drying oil mixed with half al ounce of turpentine. To use this fuic the boots should be made slightly warn before the fire, and painted over witl the composition by means of soft brush Then allow them to dry, and paint then over again with the liquid. rhe boot should then be placed in a warm an' dry place until perfectly dry. Anothe composition of similar kind is made b dissolving an ounce of powdered resi- in quarter of pint of linseed oil mad hot over the fire in pipkin. Then ad two ounces of mutton suet, from tn kidney, chopped up small, and simme until the materials are we'll mixed. Thi composition is applied like the last, bu does not require second application.

The best thing to be Gf you want to enjoy A real good time), is stout healthy boy. Just ask ono what life is2 He'll tell you: "It's funl
 It's to wade in tho brooks and to bask in the To race upon stilts, or to hop on one leg; It's searching the barn for the speckled hons Yoking the calves, or killing snake; Tossing up hay with long-handled rakes" To him there's no question of pleasure or sor- row;
 Like the birds of the air, he's no thought for tomorrow,
 Unless it should be he has hare-traps to set, Or fish to entrap in bis new-fashioned net; Skates that are waiting for "Jack Frost" to come,
 And give them chance to whiz and to hum. Then he'll press his nose flat on the cold win dow pane,
 And long for the snowfakes instead of the rain. The creakiest boots are those he likes best, And the brass toes" and heels give musical zest
 To the pleasure of stamping about like a man. (Oh, the first pair of boots Forget them who canD
 As a feather descends on the crest of q wave, On his ear falls the cry of Why can't yor

 An, sistersl In vain your wise heads you may
 shake At one who knows nothing of "nerves" and
 "headache."
 The thing he most dreads is damp, rainy day Unless he has leave in the garret-to play, Pop corn in the kitchen, draw ships on the wall Roast apples, potatoes, cat peanuts, play ball Alasl that boy should ever grow oldl Lambs frisk in the sunshine, and the Spring

Alice BONlSby'S Death.

The following facts relating to the death of Alice Bowlsby, and the myste- rious woman who took the body to the cars, have been devulged in New York. At 11:15 o'clock on Wednesday, the 23rd of August, Alice A. Bowlsby walk ed into Amity Place, where, under the name of Ascher, RosenZweig adver- tised his terrible calling. There she bargained with him for her death, and paid him $50, with the promise of $25 additional for murdering her. Rosenz- weig brought her up town with him, and they, entering the house, were seen by Jane Johnson. There, ten minutes af- ter, he performed the operation on her. The opening words of Recorder Hack ett's sentence tell the rest. She died on Friday night. The girl Agnetta Du- moyn, now known to have been a resi- dent of the interior of New York State, sle pt in Rosenzweig's house that night.
 Next morning he went out early, and calling on an undertaken named Boyle, asked if he could not bury the body ot his servant-girl, who was poor, in the cheapest cemetery, without a burial per init. Boyle said he could not. Rosenz- weig came home, and told Netta Du' 1noyn his situation. She said in mo ment, .'Have you an old trunk in the place ?" Rosenzweig replied "Yes, but what of that ?" She said "Why cant you put it into it and send it away ? , It was done. But who should carry il to the railroad ? Rosenzweig dare not She offered to do it for $10o. She got the money. Jane Johnson, the servant girl, was sent out to walk with the chil dren, and told she could stay out until evening. The cartman Pickett came the trunk was taken away, and al thought they were secure. So much SC that when Netta Dumoyn left the depo she returned to Rosenzweig's house supped with him and his wife, and slep there that night. The next day tho newspapers blared the dreadful discovery abroad, and with the early morning she fed from justice. -
 It is impossible to tell where the wo man now is. The ticket for Chicago that she purchased. No. 1,5O6, was trac ed to Albany, and it is probable she wen to Canada. Detective skill fails to de tect her whereabouts. But whereve' she may be, the terrible recollection o crime will always be with her presence and render infinitely more miserable he wretched life. .4
