AULD LANG SYEE.-We received a let.
ter from Jesse Beene few days since,
which carried us away back to the days
when Oroville was an incorporated city,
and Jesse Beene was marshal. Suisse.
quently be was in the drug business
here, and finding it little dull, packed
up his bottles and left for Humboldt,
Nevada. Again he removed to Austin,
and then to Phoebe. Sold out, bought
back, was burnt out, and started in new
again as the pioneer druggist of Nevada
He wishes to be remembered to his old
friends in Oroviiie. Although u wifs
and two babies have grown up around
him since he was here, he held Modoc
war dance over a stray number of the
RECORD that reached him with familiar
names of DID,"
We take the above from the Butte
Record, published at Oroville, Butte
county, California, where friend Jesse at
one time made his abiding place, and it
shows that he and his old-time friends
do not forget each other. MIR. Beene
has again gone into the drug business in
the store jointly occupied by him and
Mr.. Cavalier, the well-known stock
broker on Main street. This is very
convenient arrangement, for if the folks
get wounded in investing in Phoebe or
Virginia stocks Mr.. b. will be on hand
to heal them up with healing potion,
as he keeps an A stock of drugs. Cali
and see him.
SOMETHING NEW. Professor McDonold
proposes tomorrow evening to deliver a
logical chronological lecture upon the
the effects of ardent spirits on the hu-
man brain and mind. He will also de-
vote few remarks on Woman's Rights
phrenologically considered. Atreat may
be expected, as the Professor handles all
subjects be treats in an original manner,
and with marked ability. His lecture
upon matrimony was splendid effort
and drew large and refined audience.
Every one present was pleased with it..
As his stay with us is now drawing to a
close, those who would like to have eY-
aminations as to business, health, ETC.,
should give him call without delay.
DEpARTURE.-Mr. Fleming, the Super
intendent of the American Flag Mining
Company, leaves this morning for short
trip to the Bay. He will be absent about
two weeks. During his stay in Phoebe
he has, by his urbane and gentlemaply
manners, made hosts of friends among
our citizens, and his return will be hailed
by them with much pleasure. The
American Flag mine under his manage
ment has developed into first-class mine
and, we understand, never looked more
promising than now.

Do OUR School Directors and the peo-
