COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS !.

ent, little outside OF routine work was
done.
1t was ordered that the County Treas.
urer convey to Mark Church, upon the
payment of $25, lots 40 and al in block
%, Phoebe; also upon payment of $3S the

Ian the Sheridan and old Gillian houses at
Bristol.
Ordered that the Sheriff allow no per.
sons, except such county officers as may
be properly entitled thereto, to occupy
any of the rooms in the Courthouse.
This was done for the reason that for
sometime past that room had been oc.
cupied by strangers for lodging purposes,
causing complaint.
transfer of So, 500 from the General
county to the Salary Fund was made
This will help pay back salaries and en-
able the poor County officer to perform
his daily task with lighter heart, feel.
ing that his is not altogether labor of
love, but that crumb of substantial
comfort will occasionally be dropped in
his lap.
The regular monthly reports of County
officers were received and accepted, and

county, as shown in anoher column,
whereupon the Board adjourned.

ARM BROKEN. "A week ago Thursday
night, while coming up the Yuba shaft
on the bucket, John Anderson had his
left arm broken between the wrist and
elbow. The bucket had not been proper
ly adjusted in the guides, and when
about the $50 station it jumped the skids
and Andersons arm was caught between
it and timber. The injury is simple
fracture and DR.. Louder attended to it.
We did not learn of the accident until
too late for last weeks issue.
CHAs. SKIING, editor of the Ogden, U.
7. Union, and who formerly published
the Frisco Times, was shot twice at Or.
den, on November 3Oth., by Il. w. Ex.
UNI, an ex Deputy U. S. Marshal. One
of the bullets lodged in Kings neck, the
other in the calf of one of his legs. A
ibelous article, rejecting on the charac.
ter of Uxum's wife was the direct cause
of the shooting. King was unarmed at
the time. His injuries are not considered
dangerous.
Notwithstanding the bad weather,
full house witnessed the second perform
ance of the johnson Bros. Dramatic Co.,
at Browns Hall, last Saturday night
The play of "Bought" was presented,
and in generally satisfactory manner,
yet the lack of stage room was particu-
larly noticeable. If our business con-
tinues at the present rate, it will soon
justify the erection of commodious
stage, for general uses.

panied by J. II. Mitchell, whom he
