Meaveryille, has decided to locate at San
Bernardino, Southern California, where
he will engage in the gunsmithing busi-
ness and also open an assay Office. His
family leaves here this Saturday morn
ing for San Francisco, where Mr.. Craig
awaits their coming and whence they will
proceed to their new home. 1t is with
feelings of regret that our citizens p.at
with Mr.. Craig and family, who have so
long been residents of this county. The
best wishes of a host of friends in Trinity
go with them TO their new home.

NEEDS FIxING.-The Lewiston and
Shasta Turnpike Road is in very bad
condition for staging on the Lewiston
side of Trinity Mountain. The company
fix their own rates of toll, and there can
be no good excuse for the road being in
bad condition at this time of the year.
Everything indicates that there will be a
great deal of travel in and out of our
county this Summer, and our toll roads
at least should be kept in good order. d

HOME AGAIN.-County Judge e. P.
Lovejoy, returned last Monday after a
few weeks sojourn in San Francisco, not
at all changed by his visit TO the metrop-
oils. He accuses everybody, newspaper
men particularly, Of treating him well
during his absence, and promises to re-
,ciprocate should any of his new or old
acquaintance stray into this section. On
the t;whole the Judge seems delighted
with his journey and experiences while
gone. Any falling off in interesting mat
ter in the columns of the JOURNAL, must
now be attributed to Mr.. Lovejoy's re-
turn. We, the sub editor and general
utility man are no longer responsible for
anything.

A GOOD CHANCE. - Road Overseer
Leonard, of the Dutton Road District,
informs us that the wagon road along the
mountain side opposite the mouth of
Democrat Gulch, is now so far completed
as to admit the passage of teams. In tbe
Winter time two dangerous crossings OF
Weaver Creek can be avoided by taking
this new piece of road. Leonard also in
forms us that r. N. Dawson intends to
send for pile-driver, and when that ar
rives Mr.. Dawson proposes to build Il
bridge at the only remaining crossing OF
Weaver Creek, near Mabie's. These
improvements have long been much need
ed on this road which. while it has been
one of the most travelled, has also been
the hardest to keep in good travelling

FIRE.-The residence Of Mr.. David
Taylor of this place, had narrow escape
from destruction by fire last Saturday
afternoon. A hole had burned through
the roof, and several in the lining before
it was discovered, but fortunately hose
and good supply of water was on the
premises, and the flames were soon sub
dued. Being little distance from town,
Mr.. Taylor and his folks succeeded in
getting the fire under control before any
outside assistance arrived. Considering
that high wind prevailed at the time,
he was exceedingly fortunate in saving
the building, and particularly so with so
little damage.

IRON PIPEs.-Dr. VIM. Ware has a

of the break. These pipes will Withstand
a great deal more pressure than the logs
would and after they are all down will
furnish greater supply of water and
make it more available in case of fire than

Barnum's Balloon.

1t has always been Mr.. P. T. Bar
NUNS ambition to succeed wherein
other men had failed, and with that in
tent the great Snowman has come out
with the following letter, which explains
itself:
In reply to host of letters from all
parts of the country, I wish to say that
if balloon does not cross the Atlantic
the present autumn, will expend $780,
600, if necessary, in having this feat
attempted, and, if possible, accom-
plshed, as early next year as may be,
provided one or more aeronauts can be
found in America or Europe who have
faith in its success, and will heartily
attempt its accomplishment. Mr..
Queen, the English balloonist, who has
made upwards of 600 ascensions, told
me in LONDON twenty-eight years ago,
that he had no doubt the Atlantic could
be safely crossed in balloon in from
two to three days, and he offered to at

MeteOric Stone.

The Marysville (Cal.) appeal reports

Sunday evening, Aug. "a, Mr.. Ander-
sons oldest boy was riding near the
edge of the farm when a flash of light
passed over his head, and there was a
rafting sound in the trees near by and
a heavy thud in the ground. Next
morning they proceeded to the spot and
found a place where the upheaval
of fresh dirt showed that some heavy
body had fallen. The leaves and
branches of tree near by were singed
and splintered, showing the path of
some heated object. On digging about
eight feet they came upon stone about
twelve pounds in weight, which still re-
tanned an intense heat, and the ground
was hot around it. Water was poured
upon it, and itapparently cooled off and
was put In cart to take to the house,
when the latent heat was apparently lib
Grated and it set fire to the cart. Placed
in tank of water it caused it to Dol,
and did not lose its heat until late In
the afternoon. The stone is apparently

Such is the utterly rotten character
and worthless foundation of this North
ern Pacific confidence swindle, whose
timely explosion has exhibited to the
country in all its lurid ghastliness the
volcano of corruption, fraud, and
chlcanery on which rests that
false appearance of things which
monopoiists and swindler call
" the prosperity of the coun-
try" but which the men who really
make all the prosperity that any coun-
try can enjoy are discovering is not
prosperity, but robbery by confidence
games of which they are the victims. If

monstrous mode of pluDder; if their
vigorous and angry protests against the

earnings under false pretenses, and
without giving the least return for
value received !; if their earnest efforts
to get rid of the dishonest element in
our political and fiscal system; if the
" farmers movement" which certainly
comprehends these meanings, has been
instrumental in precipitating the newt
able crash, then let every element of
honesty in the land sing loudest paens
of praise to the farmers movement for
the good it has already done, and the
greater good which it is destined to ac-
complish in purging tire body polite,

dishonest elements. Chicago Times.

Wool PantalOOnS.

Mr.. O'Clarence purchased a new pair
of pants, Saturday. When he got home
his wife was mixing bread. She wiped
her hands on her apron, and made a
careful examination of the pants. First
she pinched one leg of them, and asked
him what he paid for them, and then
pinched the other, and asked him if he
didn't think it was too much. After
that he stood off Always so she could get
a look theft, so as to form right opin-
ion of it. Then she asked him if he
couldn't draw them up higher, as they
touched the floor. He said he couldn't
without splitting himself in two, which
there appeared no urgent necessity for
his doing. She pinched them again,
taking up his leg and cycling it thought
fully while he clutched the table with
his hand, and hoped around on the
other leg to rest himself. She was not
quite confident they were not all cotton
those clothing people do lie so-but
she was not quite sure. However, she
could tell better at the window, and
drew him over there to the imminent
danger of tipping him over, and break
ing his spine. She rubbed them again,
and turned up the leg so to see the
other side, and all the while her mind
gathered doubts and forbodings. If he
had only said he was going to buy a
pair of pants she would have went with
him herself, and picked them out. But
tailors know that man can't tell one
kind of cloth from another, and will put
off anything ON him. Then she abruptly
dropped his leg, and went to the back
door and called Mrs. Mugent. Mrs.
Mugent came in, and being made ac-
quainted with the particulars, pinched
Mr.. O'Clarence's legs herself and asked
him why he didn't buy the cltoh and
have his pants made at home. Mr..
O'Clarence didn't like the bother, and
Mrs. O'Clarence explained that he al
ways would have his own way. Mrs.
Mugent said an unchle of Mr.. Mugent,
who lived in Bridgeport, got pair OF
all wool pants last April for five dollars,
andyou (Mr. and Mrs. O'Clarence) would
have thought they cost ten dollars if a
cent the cloth was just as fine and firm
as anything could be. Mr.. Mugent
would sometimes get the impression
that he must have his pants ready made,
but he always got cheated. She was
positive there was not bit of wool in
these pants, and if they were Mr..
Mugent's she would have them taken
back. That is exactly what Mrs. O'Clar.
ence thought, and in spite of Mr.. O'Clar.
ence's protestations he took them back
and got another pair. The other pain
was little short in one leg, and picnhed
his stomach. But there was wool in
them, Mrs. Mugent said.-Danbury

Drug Stores Scarce in Vienna.

An hours walk this morning through
the most populous parts IF Vienna, in
search of Seidlitz powder, was fail
ure, as far as the object of the search
was concerned. We could not find an
apothecary shop in all this long walk
and diligent search. In the same space
we could have found fifty in Balti-
more, or in any other American city.
Being in pursuit of knowledge, we made
inquiry as to the cause of this scarcity,
desiring to know whether the sages of
Vienna had discovered that Shakespeare
was right when he consigned "physic
to the dogs" The physicians of whom
we inquired assured us that, although
the people did not physic themselves
much in Vienna, an average amount of
medicine was consumed. The scarcity
of apothecaries grew out of the fact that
the law was very strict as to the quail
tications of all aspirants, and that they
must obtain a certificate from an exam
lining board, all of whom are apothe-
carries and interested in restricting the
number. Thus it is that the business
is kept in certain families, and that very
few except such of their children as take
fancy to the business are indicted to
its mysteries. The difficulty that
stranger experienced in finding them
was partly owing to the fact that they
had no competition in their several
neighborhoods, made very little display,
and very often had their establishments
in back streets or courts, where con-
venience or cheap rent induced the
location. They charge high prices, and
are generally quite Vienna
