owner of Ornonde, who had a Slight

REORGANIZATION OF MILITIA.
Grass Valley Objects to the Removal
OF Her Company.


GRASS VALLEY, Dec PA rous-
ing and enthusiastic mass meeting of
citizens was held last night in Glas-
sons Hall to take action on the removal
OF the militia company from Grass Val
ley The following were appointed a
committee to present to Governor Budd
the address adopted: Mayor William
George, William Campbell, w. F. Prisk,
George Mainhart, Roger Stenson, H. G.
Parsons, John LoutZenheiser, John
Glasson, Daniel Coffin, George Fletcher
and NJ. W. Argell.
A resolution was unanimously
adopted, amid great applause, stating
that Company II of Grass Valley could
not be consolidated with the Nevada
City company, as proposed by the
Board of Location, as the men would
have to go four miles to attend drill.
and asking that body to reconsider it's
decision.
The resolution says: "In removing
this company from Grass Valley you
deprive our people of any future cele-
bration of our national holidays except
by civil organizations, you cut off from
us the only State appropriation which
Grass Valley has ever had or has ever
asked, and you make it impossible for a
faithful, enthusiastic and thoroughly
drilled body of soldiers to remain in the
National Guard"
Twelve hundred dollars was con-
tributed to defray any necessary ex-
penses.

Accident to the Prince of Wales.

LONDON, Dec. 12.-The Prince of
Wales has met with an accident that
for a time caused much concern to
those who were aware of the affair, but
the injury turns out to be trining. The
Prince was shooting in Sir Edward
Lawson's estate, Hall Barn. Beacons-
field. BuclSinghamshire. when he got
some grains of powder in his eye A
doctor was summoned, who applied To-
mentations to the eye to subdue the in
fiammation. and then injected cocaine.
after which he extracted the powder.
The eye is now assuming its normal
condition. The Prince has returned to
London.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 12.-Theo-
dore Durrant will remain for a time at
least at the County Jail. Judge Muir
ply this morning granted him a stay
OF execution for twenty days.
The stay was granted after con-
sultation in the District Attorney
office, at which Judge Murphy and At
torneys Dickinson and Deuprey were
present. 1t is also said that the ad-
vice of Chief Justice Beatty of the Su-
preme Court was taken unofficially.
When he made the order, Judge Muir
ply admonished Durrant'S attorneys
that he would expect them to prepare
the bill Of exceptions and have it ready
at the end of twenty days. He said
that unless every effort should be made
to comply with his request the order
granting the stay would be vacated.
1t is not probable, however, that the
work can be done in the time men
toned, and should it not be completed
there is no doubt that a further stay
will be granted, so, as a matter of fact,
the transfer of Durrant to the peni-
tertiary is quite remote.
The record in the Durrant case will
be the most voluminous that has ever
gone to the Supreme Court, as his at
torneys intend to incorporate in it not
alone all the testimony adduced on the
trial, but all the matter included in the
various affidavits presented on the mo-
ton for a new trial
