Some Have Responded.

A week or two ago the LEDGER re,
quested all subscribers to look at the
date on their respective papers, and
send in the amount now due. We are
pleased to note that few have res
pOnded to our call. 1t is quite import
ant that more should do so without
delay. We do not think it is fair
deal to oblige us to spend half the
amount due the LEDGER by keeping a
collector in the field. but unless the
money now due, and much of it is long
since due, is promptly paid, our only
remedy is to collect it. There are
some subscribers who have not paid a
cent for the paper for eight years,
many others are from three to six
years in arrears. This is not business,
and it must be remedied. Kindly look
at the date and send in what you can
spare, if you are not prepared to pay it
all in one payment. A receipt will be
mailed to you promptly for the sum
sent in and due credit given. Send
either by express, registered letter,
Wells, Fargo & Co.'S money order or
P. o. order. Please understand that
we are in dead earnest about this i'm
portant matter.
The date opposite your name shows
the date to which your subscription is
paid. Where the last figure of the
date is not preceded by cipher, it in
dicates that your subscription is paid
up to the month designated of the year
1S9-. When 90 appears it indicates
that your subscription is paid to 1900,
and when marked Oh, to 1901, etc.

Peerless-Jackson.

Superintendent Osborne continues to
furnish excellent evidence that the
Peerless property will eventually be-
come of great value. The sinking at
this mine is now being done by con-
tract, and the shaft will probably go
down faster than heretofore, if all goes
well. Yesterday evening Superintend-
ent Osborne brought in sample of
ledge matter that in his opinion, an1
in the opinion Of other good judges,
demonstrates beyond cavil that the
Peerless is located on the true Mother
Lode vein. Sinking is going forward
rapidly, and every body interested is
well pleased with the present outlook

Judge Davis Returned.

Judge John F. Davis returned from
his trip East Wednesday, having been
gone about three weeks on law business
in Philadelphia, Washington, D. c.,
and Fort Dodge, Iowa. While in lows,
Judge Davis found large tract Of
valuable land belonging to the es-
tate of James Hall, formerly of Vol
cano. 1t appears that Mr.. Hall had
traded off some mining property or
stock for the land at the rate of about
So per acre, and the value of the land
has risen steadily ever since until it is
now worth between s35 andi $40 per
acre.

out in gesticulation; little hearts throb-

Easter Observance,

A day of delightful weather followed
the brilliant dawn of Easter morning.
Regular and occasional church-goers
of Jackson attended divine worship,
and the Catholic, Methodist and Epis-
copal services were well patronized.
The season being we'll advanced flowers
were plentiful and the floral decora-
tions were very elaborate. The music
was excellent, the best talent in town
having been called into service.
The sermons, as usual on such oc-
casion, dealt with the crucifxion and
sufferings of the Savior, his death and
burial, and his final rise from the tomb
and ascension into Heaven.
Easter Sunday was as we'll observed
in Jackson, probably, as in any camp
along the Mother Lode. The various
ministers were in good form and deliv-
cred effective and interesting dis
courses, and the large congregations
entered into the solemnity of the oc-
casion with due religious fervor and
zeal.

Tho Survey Finished.

Surveyor Ben Ross, of Volcano; has
been here for several days surveying
Peek's addition to jackson, prepara-
tory to plating the same. He finished
the survey last Tuesday and returned
home the following morning. The
streets of the addition have been named
by Mr.. Peek as follows: Peek street,
Wallace street, Burlington street, Anita
Lane.
Peek's addition is decidedly the
cream of all locations adjacent to Jack
son. Its sanitary advantages are par
excellence, and it is within a stones
throw of the heart of the town. The
view from this addition is unsurpassed,
and as jackson grows SO will Peek g
addition until every lot in it will be-
adorned with comfortable home, and
each home, we trust, will be occupied
by well-to-do and eontented family.

Nine Rattles and a Button.

Last Monday Mrs. DIR. Aiken and
Miss Madge Rust, while enjoying a
walk on the hill southwest of town,
encountered a huge rattlesnake near
the water ditch. This monster lord of
the grass and rocks was stretched at
full length on the rocks taking a SUM-
bath. The ladies, at first glance,
thought the old descendent of the
tempter of Eve was dead. but Mrs.
Aiken took closer view, counted
nine rattles and button, and saw the
lazy fellows tongue in lively motion,
and reported the discovery to her COM
panion. A retreat in good order was
at first decided upon, hut the plucky
ladies reoonsidered the motion and
opened battle with good California
nerve. If their aim had been a little
truer the enemy would have been
brought into camp. They made it
pretty lively for him, however, as it
was,
