A QUEER CALIFORNIA COUNTY.
Some of Its Oddities as Discovered by n
Census Enumerator.

Some of Its Oddities Discovered by n
Census Enumerator.
From the Pomona Progress.
Col. Fred w. Clemons has been telling us
about the strangest county he ever knew. 1t is
close to the Nevada State line. The county is
almost inaccessible from California, and every
one who goes into the county must go into Ne
vada and take a long and somewhat hazardous
journey on a coach from Carson City. There
are only about 5000 acres for farming in the
whole county. Mountains occupy nearly all the
territory, and sheep-herding is the exclusive
business. The population is less than $50, and
of these only about 100 live in families the rest
In mountain cabins. The only village in the
county is Mar1leeville, the county seat, where
the population is 143 There is but one doctor,
one barber, nine professional gamblers, one
lawyer, two merchants, four bar-rooms, two
post offices, and one hotel in the county. The
county has lost over 100 of its population since
$780, Col Clemons is employed by the Census
Bureau in examining the records of the county
clerks offices in order to find the mortgage in
debtedness and the number of real estate trans
fers recorded for the past ten years. He tells
us that the county clerk and treasurer of the
county is one man, and 1t was whole day be-
fore he could be found to open the Office for an
inspection of the books He said he had not
opened the Office before for over six weeks, and
that he had no business as a county official
sometimes for four or five months. Col. Glenn
ons found that since 1880 eleven mortgages and
fourteen deeds had been recorded. In 1888 and
1856 neither mortgage nor deed was placed
on record. The county clerk and treasurer
says his annual fees are generally about $33
lie would resign his position, but he likes the
honor of his Office.

Stabbed Twenty-rour Times.

LONG ISLAND CITY, N. Y, Sept. 6.-During
a quarrel between August Plohman and John
Feehan, at Ravenswood, last night, the latter
drew clasp knife and stabbed Plohman twenty
four times in the head and body. None of the
wounds are mortal, but Plohman was unable to
appear against Feehan in court this morning
The Equarrel grew out of Feehan's dunning
Plohman for money due for painting his house.
Plohman bacame enraged and drew a revolver,
whereupon Feehan used his knife. Feehan
escaped last night, but surrendered this morn
