Determination of Yu,,a Citizen to Try

the OtHer WOrlu.
MARYsvILLE, December 27th.-Samuel
H. Dews, living near Browns valley, Yuba
county, committed suicide on Christmas
morning. He sent his 12-year-old son
with a note to a neighbors, stating his in
tentions, with requests as to the disposition
of his effects, with the knowledge of his
wife. During the absence of the son his
wife was startled by report in the chicken
house. She went out and found her hus-
band with his clothes on fire. Unable to
ouench the fire with water, at the request
of her husband she brought butcher
knife to cut off his clothes, and started for
assistance. The neighbors arriving found
his hfeless body. The evidence showed
that after having sent his son with the note
he had placed himself over box of blast
ing powder containing a few pounds, the
explosion of which only caused agony by
setting his clothes on fire, and not having
the desired effect he had called for the
butcherknife, and during the absence of his
wife he accomplished his intentions. De-
ceased was native of Tennessee, aged 60

PERMANENT QUARTERS.
YoGng Mems Republican Club Meet ing Last Night-A Lively Occasion ana the Result.

YodnS Mems Republican Club Meet ing Last Night-A Lively Occasion ana the Result.
 Between thirty and forty members of the Young Mems Republican club met last even- ing in No. 12 Insurance building. The chief business of the meeting was the dis cussion of the securing of permanent quar- ters for the club. The various arguments in favor of the plan were urged, and were
 briefly as follows:
 It would afford the members place for social intercourse with each other as we'll as for the discussion of political plans. With
 an attractive club room the club would com-
 mand more respect in the community and
 present stronger attractions to candidates for
 membership. It would furnish place for necessary committee meetings, and one where the club could be called together at any time for concerted action. Upon putting the question to vote it was carried with only two dissenting voices, and decided then and there to hire the room in which the meeting was held provid- ed it could be secured at or below a certain sum. A subscription paper was circulated during the recess and large enough sum sub scribed among the members there present to insure the comfortable furnishing of the room. The meeting an enthusiastic one and it is expected that the new club room will be opened at once as soon as the neces- sary arrangements can be made. The room will be furnished with papers, periodicals,
 books and card tables and made as attractive as the money subscribed will allow. The permanence and success of the organization is assured by this action and it cannot but materially enhance the prospects of the party in the city.
