are doing we'll. however, under the cir

ditch to Taylor Flat. Superintendent
Walker has made splendid trail to Tay-
lsr Flat and perfected it by a most sub
stantial bridge across French Creek for
which he deserves the thanks of tho whole
community, and in connection with which
will say that there will be about $500
Road Tax in this District and if it is
properly applied will give us a perfect
trail to Cedar Flat connecting there with
Messrs. Simmons and Morton's bridge
over the river at that place. When com
ple:ed this will give irst,rate road at

SHOULD BE Complaint has
been made by business men against the
bsys snow balling Cinnamon on the
streets. 1t has several times happened of
late that Chipamen visiting stores for the
purpose of trsnsacting business are afraid
to leave, being waited for on the outside
by crowd of boys and young men well
armed with snow balls. This is as gr.at
an annoyance to the whites as to the Chi
nese, as it not unfrequently happens that
persons passing along the street-some-
times ladies and children-are struck with
the flying missiles. But aside from all
this. it does seem cewardly-to say the
least t--fer twelve or fifteen buys, almost
grown men, to assault one poor China
man and run him down the sidewalk
following with w>balIs and yelling
like lot of wild Camanches. Further
moro they are themselves in danger of
being hurt, as the Chinese will sometimes
rstaliate by throwing rocks. 1t has been
said that unless the boys quit this ques
tionable amusement. complaint will be
made to the authorities and they be pun
ished severely.

GLORIOUS SToRM-Once more the
heavens have opened and are sending
forth most welcome rain in the valley
and snow on the mountains. Heavy
snow began falling Thursday forenoon,
which merged into rain by evening and
fell, about half-and half, during the night
This Friday morning the ground is COW
cred to the depth of an inch with snow
thorough ly saturated with water-iA fact
there is about an inch of water on the
surface of the ground. A heavy rain is
now falling, but it is cold and probably
showing on the near foothills. The
storm Of Thursday and Thursday night
measured 2,04 inches, making total OF
80 inches Of rain to date, withou:
counting the 1914 inches of snow which
has fallen during the season. Should
this storm continue during the day and
get warmer, very high water will be the
inev liable result. Already the creeks
and guiches are considerably swollen,
and booming freshet is anticipated -
But it all goes to the making up of good
mining season and Trinity county is hap,
