Ore That Runs Two Hundred Dollars in

UOiO TO the ION
Yuba Democrat
II. II. Daily and others of San Francisco
recently made locations of claims on the
lead heretofore known as the Bull Head
quartz mine. in the old town of Timbuctoo.
The new claim is named the Boa quartz
mine, and there has already been consider
able work done in developing it. About
three weeks ago 700 pounds of the ore was
sent to this city to the care of j. r. Garrett,
who sent it to the Selby Smelling Works
and mad 1t put through a working test. The
return, which was shown to a representative
OF the Democrat, showed an average of $500
in gold and 500 in silver to the ton, both
being Of as fine quality as is usually seen.
This ledge averages in size from five 10
six feet In width and holds its own rs far
down as they have gone. A quartz mill of
20 stamps capacity is soon to be erected and
its motive power will be run by water
pressure and a Pelton wheel. James Gavin
Is the supern tendent and he has great faith
in the mlne-believes it will be very profta-
bic and do much to bring out other unde-
veloped claims near Smartsyille.
James Byrne, owner of another claim
called the Peerless quar,z mine, located
about halt mile northeast OF Timbuctoo,
was also seen, and he said his ledge has
recently been relocated, 1t at one time being

The Sea Serpent as He Develops on

CIovardaIa RavaiUa


Cloverdae ReyeiUe.
The monstrosity, What Is LIP" an
account of which we published two weeks
ago as having been seen In the river be-
tween here and Ukah, has evidently passed
down the stream to the ocean. as monde
script animal was seen by parties on the
iron bridge few evenings since. Their at
tentiOn was attracted by an unusual noise
up the river, and in looking In that direc-
ton, though quite dark they saw something
parting and flashing the water into foam
and approaching them very rapidly. At
first they thought it a wounded deer, but
they were soon disabuSed Of this idea by
scream from the animal that sounded
like nothing they had ever heard before,
and which stampPded them from the bli dge
into the road. Here they had momentarv
view OF the monster as it passed under the
bridge and disappeared down the stream.
AS lie neared the bridge he raised about 10
feet out OF water. and giving sort Of bel
low lodged and passed under. making the
water fly right and left as he pursued his
journey. A peculiar odor was lett behind
hin that the boys described as almost
stihing-unlike anything they had ever ex-
perienced before-producing a sort of gar
licky taste in the mouth and q lin.
burger atmosphere. A kind OF DhoS-
phOrescent light was observed about the
head that enabled them to trace him
until he disappeared around bend in the
river. There is no doubt the animal Is the
same that was described In our paper, and
is evidently sea serpent that entered the
Russian River from the ocean, and getting
tired of fresh water was taking a back
track to his native element. 1t is to be
regretted that he couldn't have been cap
tured for exhibition, as there were mil
lions" in him could he have been killed or
taken alive. 1t was a golden opportunity
for some one, but has been missed, as thou
sands of other good things have been. We
hope the people down the river will keep an
eye out for this amphibous stranger, as he
is likely, when he shifts the sea air. to take
a short cut over the hills to the ocean.

Fill Your Heart with Goodwin and
Practice the Best Manners.
ST. Joseph (Mo) Gazette.
Doubtless thousands Of young people, and
not a small number Of old ones. wish every
day of their lives that they could learn the
secret OF fascinating others by means Of
their graceful, exquisite manners. The Sc
cret is nm open one. 1t is so easy to learn
that 1t lies all neglected by the waysde,
while they who would give their dearest
treasure 10 find 1t pass by unknowing.
1t is only this: FIJI your heart with good
will TO everybody and then practice nc all
times the best manners you know, partieu-
larly at home. If you begin Mt home this
charming manner will, so to speak, get set
tied on you and never leave you. Be Just
as polite TO your sister as You would to your
best girl. Strive to gain the goodwill of
mother, father and brothers and sisters and
children exactly as you strive to gain good
will abroad.
There is no place for practIcing manners
like the home circle; no place. permit me
to say, where 1t will be so appreciated. 1t
will be cultivation of heart. mind and
body, this endeayor to feel nothing but
affection for the home people and treat
them as though they were worthy OF as
much consideration at your hands as il they
were the President and his family. So they
are worthy. Then from the home will float
out around you those sweet, magnetic infu-
ences which will draw the hearts of all
mankind toward you.

A Conf grafton That Endangered Much
Valuable Property.
S. Solomon & Co. Of 10 California street
has for some time past used part OF the
cellar at 315 Front street as a warehouse for
the storage Of toys and japanese eurios.
Fire broke out from an unknown cause in
this indammable material at 9:25 o'clock
last night, and for some time a great con-
hagratiOD seemed inevitable, as the rooms
above the cellar were stored with oil and
grease, the property of the Union Oil Com
paDY.
The entrance 10 the cellar occupied by
Solomon is on Commercial street, and the
firemen we're seriously hampered by the
crates and boxes that obstruct tho side
walks along that narrow thOToughfare. The
bursting of hose with a loud noise created
something like a stampede that lasted for
several minutes and added greatly to the
IerpleXity of the firemen.
The flames were subdued after half an
hour Of heroic battling. Little damage was
done to the building. but Solomon's goods,
which were valued ut several thousand
dollars, will bring but little now if placed
on the bargain counter.
The smoke that rolled through the build
ing also damaged the stock in A. c. BOlde-
mann'S wareroOms at 3l3 Front This stock
consists Of extracts for the manufacture of
confectionery and is valued at SIT coo.
