SEAsONABLE HINTS. The "Scientifc
American says: If mosquitoes or other
bloodsuckers infest our sleeping rooms at
night, we uncork bottle of the oil of PEN
nyroyal, and these animals leave in great
haste, nor will they return so long as the
air in the room is loaded with the fumes
of the aromatic herb. If rats enter the
cellar, a little powdered potash thrown in
to their holes OF mixed with meal and
scattered in their runaways, never fails to
drive them away. Cayenne pepper will
keep the buttery and store-room free from
ants and cockroaches. If mouse makes
an entrance into any part of your dwelling,
saturate a rag in cayenne in solution and
stuff it into the hole, which then can be
repaired with either wood or mortar. No
rat or mouse will eat that rag for the pur-
pose of opening communication with a de-
pot of supplies.
MARYLAND BIsCUIT.-To two pounds
of flour and two ounces of lard. well
rubbed in, and tablespoonful of salt, take
enough cold water to make dry dough
(about a pint), being careful not to get it
too moist. Work the dough in shape, lay
it on solid place, like meat block, and
pound it with the back of an axe, for half
an hour OF more, letting it cut through
the dough at every stroke. When f1atten-
ed by the blows, fold up and pound again,
but don't add any flour after it is first
mixed. When ready to mould do not cut,
| but pull off pieces aboutth size of an egg,
mold with your hands, Fstick with fork,
and bake in a quick. oven about half an
hour.

On last Thurday the Belcher mine
was shut down for three days, for the
purpose of putting in a new gallows
frame, and it was announced that OBJ
erations would be resumed last Mon
day. When the miners assembled for
the purpose OF going to work on that
morning, they were informed that the
mine would not start up until next
Monday. The reason tor this post.
ponement is not given, but is supposed
TO be owing to the suspension Of the
Bank of California.
The utility of "safeties" upon cages
in mining shafts was never better x.
empliied than in the Imperial mine
last Sunday night. AS the giraffe wes
coming up the Incline, filled with men,
the cable suddenly broke. A terrible
disaster would have been the inevitable
result but for the satellites, which did
their work, and all were saved. The
fall was only a few inches.
There has been no Justice Of the

evil disposed, and better part of the cit.
liens thereby scandalized.

From the most reliable authority the
Carson 11ibnne learns that the crew of
the Gov. Stanford were nnder the in
fluence OF liquor at the time Of the al
most disaster on Saturday morning
last. CAPT. Lapham was, fortunately,
as usual, perfectly sober, and owing
probably to that cause the boat was
saved from destruction and the passen-
gers and crew from a watery grave.
A locomotive on the Virginia and
Truckee Railroad went into the butch
ering business, on a small scale, Sun
day ~afternooon, and made sausage
meat of a hog that forgot to get off the
track near the Hale and Norcross
works. He was a fat hog, and a specta-
tor of an economical turn stored a
quarter section of him in a sack and
toted it home.
VIM. Henderson, who was so terri
bly, injured by a blast in the Belcher
mine on the 10Th prox., died of his in
iuries at 4 O'Clock Monday morning.
1t will be remembered that his body
was fatty riddled with pieces of rock
from the waist up. His injuries were
so serious that it is wonderful he sur
vived so long.
Saturday the Caledonia Mining
Company filed in the office of the
County Recorder of Storey county its
certificate of the increase of its capital
stock from $1,000, 900 in twenty thou
sand shares to $40, 900, 900 in one hun
dred thousand shares.

Carson last Sunday. He is a son of
Thomas and Susie Rapier, we'll known
to old settlers in this county. Tom Ra-
pier was shot in the arm and crippled
for life by the Indians in Paradise val
ley in 1865, at which time they shot
and killed his brother-in-law Joe Gar
field. subsequently the family re-
moved to Carlin, from which place
emigrated to Montana, and when last
heard from was in Arizona. Susie fol-
lowed Captain Paine to Colorado, and
vas living in New Mexico last Winter.
The boy appears to be the :" son of his
mammy,'' and lie says he is going to
find her or bust. He says he has let
ters from different persons informing
him that his father is dead. Susie
brought her children up in the way
they should go, and this one seems to
be going it.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. /.
This being election day the banks
and many places of business are
closed.
Nothing new as to the affairs OF the
Bank OF California. The Chronicle this
morning publishes "a positive stale
ment To the effect thatthe bank has reli-
able assets OF fourteen millions of dol
lars and nominal assets of twenty mil
lions; that their Indebtedness is thir-
teen millions. Coin in the vaults,
eight hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars, and that guaranty funds of from
live to ten millions are nearly all
pledged and hat resumption is AS
sured Immediately. similar state
ments are being spread abroad, but all
such assurances are premature, accord
ing to information from headquarters,
An interview just had with the Di-
rector OF the Bank of California es.
tablishes the previous report that moth
ing new las TRANSFERRED in the affairs of
the bank. The positive statements
made as to resumption are uDautbor-
lied. In reply to a question we re-
ceived the 5 W "N q are trying to
fix up this organization, but don't
know whether we will succeed or not"
As to the condition of the bank, they
answered that the nominal assets were
about 1000, 900 and liabilities about
$l4 ,000, 900. They think the reliable
assets will pay the debts.
There is nothing from the National
Gold Bank and Trust Company or
Merchants Exchange Bank. Both re-
port fair progress in obtaining coin for
resumption.
The election is preceding quietly.

A Washington special says the state
ment is made, upon high authority,
that the forthcoming message to Con-
gress will contain a most urgent
recommendation that the Indian Bug
o be turned over to the War De-
partment. This is accepted as an EVIL
dence that tile President has finally
become convinced that at least some oil
the frauds charged upon the present
management ofthe Indian service have
a foundation in fact. 1t also gives fur
Their color to the rumor that Delano
will be superseded byJ. Russell Jones,
of Illinois, as it is but partially prob
able that, after having in this manner
reflected upon Secretary Delano, the
President would retain him in the
Cabinet. The President has alv avs
been in favor Of having the control OF
the indians given to the Wal Depart-
ment, but has had a desire to give the
peace policy people a fair opportunity
to demonstrate their peculiar fitness for
the work, and, now that they have
failed so miserably, he will use all his
influence to secure the adoption of the
system, which he is convinced is the
better one.

THE SUSPENDED BANK. = Rumors
are still rife concerning the resunp-
ton of the Bank of California. One
account asserts positively that every
thing has been perfected and that the
bank will resume business at once.
We also have by telegraph a statement
taken from the Chronicle, which pur-
ports to give the total assets and lia-
bilities of the old concern. If this
showing be correct it would appear that
there is no lack Of to meet

STOCKTON, Sept. 2, A. Mn con-
sequence of the scratched tickets the
counting progresses slowly. AS far as
counted, however, in the city Irwin
and the Democratic State ticket leads.
Bidwell's vote is very small. The Re-
publican Legislative ticket is undoubt-
eddy elected. The Republican county
ticket, with the exception of District
Attorney and Recorder is probably
elected. Miss Jennie Phelps, Dem.,
for Supt. Public Schools, has polled a
large vote, and it will be close between
the Republican nominee and the lady.
SACRAMENTO, Sept. 2, l A. M.-The
election passed off quietly. Total vote
3,779, which is 352 less than in 1878.
The falling off is attributed to d;saf-
fiction among Republicans and the
split in the Democratic party. No re-
suits IS yet.
The generarimpression here is that
the entire Democratic State ticket is
elected by an overwhelming majority.
The Independents, so far as heard
from, are distanced in the race.
