A Rural Visitor Sees the Sights, But Pays
Rather ID early for 1t.
George Averies, yerdant excursionist
from Placer county, took in the sights last
night, and during his meanderings dropped
into a low den on Third and l. streets.
Averies was somewhat intoxicated and be-
gan to boast of his affluence to the loungers
in the groggery.
"How much money have you got? IL
quired ow-browed individual who was
leaning on the bar.
None of your business. I've got more
than you, anyhow" was Averies' reply.
"Bet you haven't" said the man.
"Bet / have" said Averies.
The barkeeper suggested that they 'show
up" the man winning the bet to take all of
the losers money.
Averies placed $50 on the bar. and the
other man showed the same amount. The
barkeeper showed the money over to the
lowbrowed individual and grinned at
Averies. The latter wanted an explana-
ton.
Why" said the barkeeper, you were
betting that you bad more money than
this man. You havn't shown more"
Averies departed Immediately for the
police station, and at last accounts was try
ing to persuade the night jailer to issue
warrants for the arrest of the saloon keeper
and the man who had taken the money.

North Star Gold Mine

James D. Hague, President of the North
Star Gold Mining Company, operating in
Grass Valley, is authority for the statement
that the gross value of the product of the
mine for the month of August was $27, 400.
Most OF this came from the 1 800 foot level
The officers of the company are very much
gratided to find that the ore improves with
depth, the output for the last two weeks of
August averaging about $40 per ton. De-
velopment work is going on steadily, and
the 1,900-foot level is being opened up.
President Hague believes that the August
receipts will be sufficient to enable the
company to pay a dividend of $500
shortly.

The Colonels still at 1t.

SAN Francisco, September 19th.-By q
desperate effort in the last half of the ninth
inning to-day the 'Friscos escaped shut
out by making two runs. 1t was the same
old story on the part of the home nine.
They could not hit Wehrle a little bit,
having only four safe hits in eight innings.
The Oaklands had their batting clothes on
and slugged right and left for triples and
doubles, with Dooley's home run hit
thrown in. The Colonels also played a
fine fielding game, Dooley's error being a
misjudged grounder and Hardie's mispiay
a muff of fly. The popularity of the
game was the small number of stolen
bases, both catchers throwing out several
men at second. Score:
