THE BEST IET.-The past Winter
John II. Smith and Thomas Baker have
been engaged in opening a placer mine
on Eastmau's creek, above Lewiston
They have a 3-foot nume, about quarter
o a milo long. The twenty head boxes
were run down last week and the first
bucket-ful OF dirt taken up, contained
twenty-five pounds of gold, or about 81,
500. The gold is heavy and large pro-
portion o. it remains on the bed rocl, and
in the bitches. This is the best bucket
full Of dirt ever taken up in the county,
we believe. Smith says he don't want to
sell, and wouldn't have better claim
than the one himself and partner have
just opened. Hope it may neverpay less.

were in town this weel, and tell us that
everything is lively at Cinnabar. Mr..

three tanks of quicksilver every two days.
This is at the rate of III pounds per day,
worth at the mine 81 40 per pound, which
makes the yield in dollars and cents,
$3.50 copper day. This is surer and better
than a gold mine. Warland & Co. in
tend putting up six retorts and expect to
commence producing quicksilver in few
days. Several other parties have lately
obtained excellent prospects.

CREMATIoN.-The subject of burning
instead of burying the dead is now in
controversy. The crematIOniStS held
another meeting on Friday evening,
and were encouragingly addressed by
President Barnard of Columbia college.
the Rev. o. b. rockingham. and others.
1t was announced that as soon as the
charter was granted by the legislature.
burning works would he put up near the
city. and bodies could he burned with
IL profit of from five to eight dollars
each. The objection that bodies poison
ed might be burned to the destruction
of all traces of the murder was met by
The arrangement that in all suspected
cases. and perhaps in all cases, the
stomach would he removed and preServ-
ed. The idea is not very pleasing
one 10y itself. but it also removes from
cremation one of its chief attractions.
Few people comparatively will he
brought Ia bother themselves about the
hygiene of the matter. II their fathers
and grandtathcrs lived on poisoned wa
ter and foul air they think they can d"
it. too. The great hold upon the average
man is i'll the fear of being buried alive.
This. cremation WAS to guard against.
but the removal of the stomach l. itself
Il guaranty of death. and that being
assured. the need of burning will bc re-
moved from many minds. Still two re-
suits may be looked for from this agira-
tom successful ''placing" of the com
panN'> stock upon the market, where
10y people can get Il taste of cremation
in having their fingers burned: and :; re-
duCtlom in the cost of decent burial
which must lie made now that public at
trntion is being 50 directly drawn To the
subject

part with the second" The Rev. Mr.
X. left in wrath, which was not lessened
when the imperturbable bigamist es-
corted his harem to Mr.. Kiggett's tab
ernacle, the next Sunday, and listened
to the sermon with ostentatious piety.
The Church now retired.
San Bernardino then held a mass
meeting. Oades attended it, 1t WAS
proposed to petition the Legislature.
'.That is no CO." quOth Oades '.the
Goth section of California expressly pro-
vides that no divorce shall he granted
by the Legislature Evidently Oades
was well-read in the literature bearing
on his case. In the pause that followed,
prominent citizen suggested that
hanging Oades would cut the Gordian
knot at once. ''This is Il very common
way of arranging such affairs" said he.
land it has always met the public APP
probation, except, indeed, once when
we perhaps carried it too far by hanging
seventeen Chinamen.' The speech was
received with cheers, during which
Oales made hurried exit. He was
hunted merrily through the town. but
finally reached his home after close
race, and ran off the crowd with the
same shotgun that played such prom
inent part in running off the man who
tried to interview Mrs. Oades No. |. At
last accounts, all was quiet Oades
keeps his two wives, despite State,
Church, and people. San Bernardino
threatens revenge, but keeps out of
range of the shotgun.

The Two-Wived Californian

Oades of san BcrnaIdino is the man
with two wives. One of them he wed
iii New Zealand, eight Years ago. The
MaoIieS burned his house and. as he
supposed. his wife. He came to Cali
tornia. and there, last wear. married
again. Wife No. | followed him. She
was Hospitality received 10y No. >. and
the three lived peaccably together
The tyrant state awoke them from their
dream of happiness by suing Oades for
bigamy. Judge and jury. with II vista
of bolts and bars beyond, could not
,iaunt the man with two wives. He
pleaded that he had had good reason
to believe his first wife dead that de-
spite diligent search. he had heard
nothing of her for five Years and more.
and that IL certain section of the Cali
tornia code allowed him to marry. uIl-
der such circumstances, long before he
actually did. The complaint was dis
missed, Oades bowed, his two wives
courtesied. and the three swept out of
court in triumph. The grand jury now
indicted Oades. The latter. mindful
that like CAUSES produce like effects.
made the same plea. and got the same
decision. One weapon remained i'll the
legal armory. 1t was found that the
California code would allow either wife
to sue Oades for keeping the other.
y first attempt to interview wife No. |
was IL failure. The intruder was run
off by OadeS with Il shotgun" \ sec
ond trial proved more successful. No.
! was seen. She was offered 5000 if
she would commence Il suit, and she
refused. She was Oadcs's legal wife.
As long as he lived with her. she
wanted naught more. No. ,. who was
tempted soon after. was equally firm.
If she applied to the courts. she said.
they would annul her own marriage.
That would be unpleasant. Oades and
she got along t;Imously. No. ! was too
old t" he Il rival, and WAS. moreover.
"a considerable help about the house"
As a torlorn hope. the San Bernardino
bar, stung by the professional With
cisms at their expense. applied to the
trainers of the code for information
One of the commissioners replied that
they had simply copied the work of
David Dudley Field and didn't know
much about the matter themselves.
''For myself added the writer. Il
have never pretended to he much of Il
coditicr. but the position was offered
me with good salary and always
take anything with a salary attached
I'd make Il piano OF il steam-engine for
salary, and they're as much out of NV
line lis codifying in my opinion, the
other commissioners are no better than
myself" The frank reply crushed Law.
1t retired. The Church came to the
rescue.
The Rev. Mr.. Kiggett called upon
Oades. An agreeable talk ensued.
Oades confessed that he was '.theoreti
cally a mOnOgamist," but as the law
him two wives, he saw no harm
III having them. He blamed the codi-
tiers for drawing up such a law, ex-
planned that "thOugh he might possibly
stand the loss of the old woman, his
first wife, nothing would induce him to
