How to Treat Your Watch.

Wind 1t up at the same time every day,
Keep 1t In as even o temperature as possible
Sudden transition from heat to cold may
cause the handspring TO break. fyou would
keep II clean never put 1t in any pocket ex-
cept one ofleather. Those pocn cts which are
lined with cloth, cotton or calico, give by the
constant friction a certain fluff. which enters
most Watch Cases and makes Its way to the
delicate parts Of the watch. See that the pock-
ct is turned and clean often, and take an old
linen handkerchief and wipe carefully all the
dust from under the backs, bezel and cap Of
the case. But above all you must be sure
that the Case fits firmly and to be sure of this,
select one where the parts center, backs, cap,
&c are each made from one piece of metal.
The JAMES BOSS PATENT STIFFENED OR
FILLED GOLD WATCH CASE is so made, and
not only does such q Watch Case become
stronger and fit more perfectly, but 1t enables
the manufacturer to turn and form three piec-
es of metal (tEe outer ones being gold and he
inner one of an inferior metal) into shape for
the round parts, making to all appearances
and practical purposes just as good Watch
Case as the solid gold, at about one-half the
cost to the purchaser.
There are nearly one hundred thousand of
these Watch Cases now carried, and their good
qualities are acknowledged by the same num-
her Of happy possessers.
All Jewellers keep them also illustrated cat
alogues for gratuitious distribution.

WASHINGTON. May 29.-Itis whis-
pered about in Democratic circles
to night that surprise is in store for
the coming Democratic State Con.
yention of Pennsylvania. The Dem
ocrats are satisfied that they must
put forward their strongest men to
win the fight, and among the names
most prominently mentioned is that
of General Winfield 8. Hancock, who
is a resident of Pennsylvania but who
is at present. located in New York.
1t Is intimated that General Hancock
will accept the nomination if tender
ed him, on the ground that if success
full he will be formidable candidate
for the Presidential nomination of
the Democratic party in 1884.

The Garrett Guards Drill.

The military parading yesterday
presented fine appearance. and were
much admired, and none more than
the Garrett Guards, of Oakland, who
turned out a goodly number of mus
kets. and were differed by Capt. h.

AT $3.50 p. NJ. Capt. Wardwell assem-
bled part of his command in front OF
the Queen City hotel, and put them
through the manual OF arms. Their

grace and precision and were heartily
applau6ed by the large number of
spectators present. At the close of
the drill Adjutant Sloan presented
each soldier with small bouquet,
amid applause.-Can,b. Ne,cs, We'd

Tor consideration by the Board. The
present location of the road is unfor-
tunate, and should be continued from
OAK streets on straight line to in
tersect the old road near the residence
OF John A. Delawder, as this is des-
tined in the near future to be the
Broadway of Oakland, and the main
avenue to Mountain Lake Park. If
the change indicated be made. in a
snort time the whole will be built
upon and improved, thus adding
many thousands of dollars to the tax

Explosion of a Fly Wheel.

About O'Clock yesterday nt rning
the large fly wheel of the big engine
at the Lochiel Lumber conpany's
works near Bloomington, Garrett
county, flew to pieces while the wheel
was making 106 revolutionsa minute.
Luckily the rim did not break, and
the spokes fell down without flying
off, and the damage is slight. Tn :
worst loss will be from the stoppage of
a portion of the works for a few days.
Mr.. Arnold of the firm of Clark &
Arnold, who run the mill by contract
for the Lochlel Lumber company,
was in the city yesterday. procuring
a new fly wheel.
Mr.. Arnold states that the works
are now booming. Since February 8
eight million feet of lumber has been
turned out of the saw-lnil and most
of it has already been made into
boxes, which are used for cases for oil
cans, and the balance is being worked
up daily. The present capacity of
the works is q 900 boxes per week.
and this will shortly be increased to
$4,000. The firm are now making u
number of improvements at the
works. They are putting in an addi-
tional boiler, two additional planners.
and four new ripping machines. the
works now employ l20 men, but
shortly, when the establishment is in
full blast, 100 will be employed.
The Lochiel company have recently
gotten out an immense quantity OF
longs, which are now on the way to
the mill, the rear end of the "driye''
being within two miles OF the works.
1t is estimated that the total amount
of timber in the drive is $4,000. OOC

being more nutritious and much more
readily digested. At Its present cost,
it is relatively cheaper than potatoes,
oatmeal or grain-grits of any kind.
In preparing it only Just enough cold
water should be poured on to prevent
the rice from burning at the bottom
of the pot, which should have close
fitting cover, and with u moderate
fire the rice il steamed rather than
boiled until it Is nearly done then
the cover is taken off, the surplus
steam and moisture allowed to escape,
and the rice turns out mass of snow
white kernels, each separate from the
other, and as much superior to the
usual soggy mass, as fine mealy
potato Is superior to the water-soaked
article.

OAKLAND, Nd, May 20, 1882.

Mr.. EDITOR Much annoyance
was caused to the travelling public
lately by the closing of Oak street by
a wire fence. at the limits of the cor
pOration. This was done by the own
ers of the property, which they had
surveyed by a competent surveyor,
In order to avoid trouble and keep
within their limits, and the fence was
placed on the line as indicated by the
surveyor. The fence was forcibly
torn down by the road supervisor and
the Burgess of Oakland, and as the
Grand Jury was in session at the
time, 1t is rumored that the party
representing the property owners,
was presented to that body as being
guilty of a trespass In closing the
public highway. 1t seems evident,
however, that the Grand Jury found
no cause for holding the party to an.
swer.
AS next Monday is the time fixed
for the meeting of the County Com.

favorable tipe to bring the matter ur

Gov. ST. JOHN ON THE FAIL
URE'bOF P PROHIBITION IN KANSAS
They say we are losing in population
and railroads. In 1880 Mr.. Wheeler,
general manager of the Atchison. To-
peka and Sante Fe Railroad, writes
me their total receipts were over
SIS, 100000. In 1881 he says they were
over Sl2,00O,0O0. 1--WE give only
round figures.) This looks like
failure. Last year over 800 miles of
new railroad was built, and our pop
ulation is decreasing steadily right
along. Yes-I admit; there is one
spot where there is decided loss in
population. That spot is our peni-
tentiaries and iaiIs. In the State
prison in 1880 there were 2S6. Last
year it was IT'S. Yes, the population
is decreasing. Again, for every saloon
man that emigrates into Kansas City
we secure a school and a church.
What is the return from Maine? In
1851 $50 convicts were taken from
100000 population. In 1881, thirty
years after, 1876 from 650,OOO
Illinois is the banner whisky State
it pays $3.50 per capita revenue tax.
Yet the leaven of temperance is at

New York at $l.45. Others pay
