THE PAINE BREAK.
A Humboldt County Contractor Will
Partially Close 1t.

A Humboldt County Contractor Will
Partially Close 1t.
James Simpson, of Humboldt county, a
gentleman who has had experience in such
work, has entered into contract with
Major Heuer, of the Government Engineer
ing Corps, to partially close the break in
the Yolo levee at the Paine ranch, through
which the major portion of the volume of
water in the Sacramento river now passes
into the Yolo tule basin.
Mr.. Simpsons contract, it is understood,
calls for 200 cubic yards OF brush mat
tress to be laid across the break in the
levee, between two rows or piles. These
are to be twelve feet apart, one on the inner
and the other on the outer side of the line
of the levee. Upon this brush sill are to
be laid 10000 sacks of sand or earth, to
hold it in place. Some $50 piles will be
required for the two rows to be driven.
1t is calculated that abont thirty days
will be required in which to complete the
work. This brush and rows of sacks will
not, of course, raise the levee to the sur
face of tie water, but are expected to hold
the main body of water in the river chaa-
mel. so that it may scour out the bar that
has formed below the break. 1t is sup
posed to be the intention of Major Heuer
to let another contract later on for the
completion of the work
The work will probably be commenced
within a week. Mr.. Simpson, the con-
tractor, has been here and examined the
scene of operations preparatory to bring

Those who desire to be present at the
interesting ceremony of defeating the

erer of gold will leave the city on the reg
ular Placerville train at o'clock A. NJ, re-

DIED AMONG STRANGERS.
A Young Lady of Yolo County Succumbs
to Blood Poisoning.

A Young Lady of Yolo County succumbs
to Blood Poisoning.
Miss Cyrena Boyd. of Winters, Yolo
county, died in the city Wednesday of blood
poisoning. While in San Francisco some
time ago visiting friends she had her ears
pierced. She returned home, but was
shortly afterward caught in a severe rain
storm. She took cold, erysipelas set in
and she came to this city on Saturday for
treatment. Instead of improving, how
ever. she grew worse, and her ears and
face became terribly swollen.
After suffering great agony, death came
to the young lady's relief on Wednesday
evening. A telegram was sent to her
parents at Winters in time for them to
have arrived before their daughter passed
away, but on account of some delay there
they did not receive the message until too
late. Deceased was an attractive young
lady, 10 years of age, and favorite in the
neighborhood of her home. The body
will be inferred IN Woodland.

The Major WON'T Re Blutied.

Street Commissioner Mclaughlin says
the letter ne received from Washington on
Tuesday, stating that the Government
authorities would not reimburse the city
for expanding some $3.50 in repairing the
sidewalk and pumping the stagnant water
from the Government lot at Seventh and
K streets, does not settle the matter by any
means. He says he is not going to be
"blnffed'' in that way, and that the author
tiles at the Government headquarters will
hear from him again.

many people went from Sacramento city
by rail and private conveyance, and invita-

came thick and fast.
To many city people this is the most en-.
joyable picnic of the season. There is such
a heartiness in the greeting and in every
thing pertaining to those affairs, that it
