The RichiMineral Deposits in Northern
Amador County-Prosperous Outlook.
EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN On the foothills in
northern Amador, about 1000 feet above
sea level, is situated the fourishing mining
village of Plymouth, containing about
200 inhabitants. In 1856 the Empire
mine was located by ]. G. Alden and his
partner, Mr.. Simpson, and was sold by
them in 1858 to John and William H.
Hooper For several years the place was
only known as quartz mining camp.
John and William H. Hooper were hneal
descendants of the New England Puritan
stock, and gave il the name of Plymouth,
in honor of Plymouth Rock where our
Pilgrim Fathers landed in 1920, on the ice
bound shores of Massachusetts, Bay. Il
was our Pilgrim fathers who first unfurled
freedoms banner on Plymouth Rock and
laid the cornerstone of republican en-
pire which is now the strongest and most
liberal Government that the world has ever
known. That cornerstone is imperisha-
bic. No Communism can ever modest it
while public virtue and civil order is de-
Tended by the descendants of the Puritans
The growth of this place has not been
rapid, but is such as to make it permanent.
We already have three churches, two large
school-houseS and about $50 children who
draw public money and attend our schools.
Buildings are going up continually on all
our streets and avenues, and the sound of
the hammer and saw is heard by day and
night as musical notes of our growing i'm
portance in all the various industries which
make up prosperous and brisk commu-
nifty. The importance of the place as a
great mining center Tor great mineral de-
velopments, has not, in my opinion, been
justly appreciated by the public or mining
capitalists. 1t is now known that the
mother lode, as it is called, extends from
Dry creek on the south to the Costumes
river on the north, a distance of about
eight miles, and, so far as developed 1T has
always been found to be rich in quartz ore.
The New London quartz mine, which
was recently sold by J. g. Alden to Martin
& Ballard, is now considered TO be valuable
mining property The old Empire still
continues to turn out its rich treasure of
ore, while the Pacific is considered to be
the richest and best quartz paying mine in
the State. There is, I believe, a great
future in the advanced prosperity of our
mining interest Wherever the mother
lode has been opened it has always proved
to contain large and rich body of ore. 1t
is now said that Alyinza, Hayward Il Co.
will in the spring put up works on their
mine at Enterprise, which is situated about
three-fourths of a mile south from the
Costumes river, on direct line with the
Plymouth mines. There is room enough
on the main lode from Dry creek to the
Costumes. I should think, for twenty
quartz mills, and | also believe the ore will
not be worked out in the next century.

off about two-ihirds of our poor butter
makers for good ones, it would increase
the amount of coin for that single article of
food forty per cent the first year. More
good horses would be raised, more vegeta-
bles of all kinds, more wheat, more fruit
and more pork could be sold at fair prices.
Some of our dairymaen are selling all the
butter they can make for 2s cents, while II
to 20 cents per pound is all the most of our
butter makers can get, and simply because
they are not enterprising enough to learn
to make better grade of butter. Apples
in Honey Lake Valley are worth 70 cents
per box, while we are paying s. so per box
here. If we could raise all we consume of
apples alone, many dollars would be left
here, while now they are taken away.

ne Best Article of Food.

II has come to this, thai the simplest
articles of diet are the safest, and that is in
my opinion another argument in favor of
plain living. Yes, the simplest are the
safest, and let me add, the best are the
cheapest. The butcher, for example, or
the egg merchant, cannot adulterate his
wares, but he may have several qualities;
and there is q stage at which all animal
foods arrive, when kept in shops, which
renders them to large extent poisonous,
and this is as bad, if not worse, than adult
teration.
We often hear II said that shop eggs, as
they are called, are good enough FOR frying,
with bacon for example. This IS q positive
mistake; an egg that has even g suspicion
.of staleness aboutitis deleterious 10 health,
not 10 saw dangerous, no matter whether II
be fried or boiled. And the same may be

SPoTs on THE SUN.-This season of the
present year is the epoch of the minimum
of the solar-spot PERIOD which is said to
occur every eleven years. During the past
six weeks a minute spot has been visible
on the surface of the SUM- and one or two
indications of facul@. When the atmos-
phere is quiet the granulated appearance of
the suns disk is very clearly distinguished
and il appears as though these markings
are larger than is usually the case. jam
sens photographs clearly define these gran
ulations, and also exhibit the rapid move
ment of great solar storms that are not
accompanied by the development of spots.
Several English authorities have tried to
prove periods Of commercial depression
incident with the phases of the solar-spot
period; and that these depressions. are
consequent upon defective harvests during
specific years in each of the eleven year
periods.-S. f. Cal.

An ACCIDENT RooF CARA gentleman
resident of this city, has invented what he
claims will prove by actual use a fire and
collsion-proof railway cara car that will
not telescope or burn. 1t is made wholly
of iron and steel, and the weight will range
from sixteen to twenty tons for ordinary
passenger coaches, and from twenty-five
to twenty-five tons for sleepers. The floor
is single sheet Of metal, and the roof also
a single sheet. Beams of rolled steel bear
the weight of resistance in case of collision,
and owing to the novel and peculiar con-
struction and adjustment the inventor is
confident that telescoping Of the cars would
not in any event result One car by the
force of the shock might be thrown on the
top of another, but could not be crushed by
impact.-S.F Alta.

Strong Drink in GERMANY and France,


In strong drink we learn that Germany,
which before 1879 had shown a slightly de-
creased consumption, rises six per cent. in
the later report of the years 1882 g. Per
head Of population, it drinks four times as
much beer and three times as much brandy
as France. Probably the wine Clubbing ener-
gies Of the gayer nation may somewhat re-
dress this disparity. But yet France had in
40 years lending in 1879 increased per head
its beer consumption by $50 per cent, and
its brandy by 200 per cent, while alco-
holic insanity in France has increased
fiyefold since 20 years ago The dismal
record seems 10 have been stimulated
by the recent direction taken by law,
allowing unrestricted competition to the
vendors OF intoxicants, who before were
under some restraint. Thus, since 1878,
Alsace-Lorraine, protiting by the license,
has increased by fifty per cent. its drinking
saloons. Again, the consumption of brandy
as against that of wine in the same region
gives fearful index. Its figures of wine
to brandy are in 1875 as 4 J. in 1877 as 81
i'll 1873 as 81; in 1879 as Ill, or doubled
in four years. In Bavaria, the land of beer,
a single generation has seen the consump-
ton of its staple liquid more than
doubled. A German temperance mot total
abstinenCe) society has arisen since 1883 as
a protest against the growing bane. But
its results are necessarily in their infancy
as yet.-The F0rtIagitly ReUietg.

JEANNErTE's HAIR.

o, loosen the curls that you wear, Jeanette,
Let me tangle my hands in your hair, my pet,
For the world to me had no daintieI sight
Than your brown hair yelling your shoulders
white.
il was brown, with golden gloss, Jeanette,
Ii was finer than the silk of floss, my pet
Twas thug TO be braided, and jeweled, and
kissed.
Twas the loveliest hair in the world, my pet
My arm was the arm OF a clown, Jeanette.
1t was sinewy, bristled and brown, my pet,
But warmly and softly it loved to caress
Your round, white neck and your wealth OF
tress,
Your beautiful plenty of hair, my pet
Your eyes had a swimming glory, Jeanette,
Revealing the old, dear story, my pet
They were gray, with the chastened tinge OF the
sky
When the trout lesps quicke,t to snap the fly,
And they matched your golden hair.
And your lips-but have no words, Jeanette,
They were fresh as the twitter of BIRDS my pet,
When the springs is young and the roses are wet
With the dewdrops in each red bosom SET
And they suited your gold-brown hair, my pet.
o, you tangled my life in your hair, Jeanette,
Twas silken and. golden snare, my pet
But so gentle the bondage my soul did implore
The sight 10 continue your slave eYermore,
With my fingers enmeshed in your hair, my pet.
Thus ever dream what you were, Jeanette,
With your lips, and your eyes, and your hair,
my pet,
In the darkness of desolate years moan,
And my tears fall bitterly over the stone
That covers your golden hair, my pet.

ASafeguard.

The fatal rapidity with which slight
Colds and Coughs frequently develop
into the grayest maladies of the throat
and lungs, is n consideration which should
impel every prudent person TO keep at
hand, as a household remedy, bottle of
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL.
Nothing else gives such immediate relief
and works so sure cure in all affections
of this class. That eminent physician,
Prof. +. Sweetzer, of the Maine Medical
School, Brunswick, Me-, says
"Medical science has produced no other ano-
dyue cxpectorant so good as AYERS CHERRY
PEcroR1L. Ii is invaluable for diseases Of the
throat and lungs"
The sans opinion is expressed by the
well-Lnown DR.. L. j. Addison, of Chicago,
H., who says
81 have never found, in thirty-five years Of
continuous study and practice of medicine, any
preparation of so great value as Ayers CHERRY
PEcToRAL, for treatment of diseases of the
throat and lungs. II not only breaks up colds
and cures severe coughs, but is more effective
than anything else in relieving even the most
serlous bronchial and pulmonary affections"

AYERS
Cherry PeCtoral

Is not a new claimant for popular conf
dence, but medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since il was
first offered TO the public.
There is not a household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tibe Of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
In numberless instances, cured obstinate
eases of chronic Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t is
medicine that only requires TO be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and WhOoping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be Ie-
membered by everybody.
