Louis LotfzEILE~-sA1he blacksmith
in charge of the forge at the l,30O-foot
level of the Yellow Jacket mine, from
whence proceeded the fire, causing the
terrible disaster of Saturday morning
last. He was warned an hour or two be-
fore that fire communicating with
neighboring wood work had already been
put out at his forge, and that he must

whose death occurred some three months
ago. An order for his commitment to
the Insane Asylum was made by the
Judge and he will be taken to Stockton
in few days.

put into execution the provisions of the
Vagrant Act persuaded the boisterous
into tranquility, and restored compartive

marked diminution in the number Of
DRINKS within the past few days, and
