Last Sunday as James Meek was
strolling along the bank of Jackson
creek, mile or SO from town, he came
across a starving horse that some days
before had become entangled in large
roll of barb-wire which had drifted to
the bank of the stream and was parti-
ally covered by dirt and sand. The
horse had evidently approached the
stream to quenoh thirst and stepped
into the snare. The wire caught under
the shoes of it's fore feet and held it
there inspite of a fearful struggle, as
the surroundings indicated, to free
itself. Mr.. Meek, after considerable
difficulty and risk to himself from the
frantic movements of the half-starved
and frenzied animal, succeeded in free
ing the unfortunate beast from the
death-trap. The horse is a dark bay
with one white hind foot. The horse,
after satisfying its biting hunger by
voraciOusly devouring weeds and grass
for few moments, exhibited its thank
fulness to its liberator by extraordinary
conduct. It kept close to the heels of
Mr.. Meek and neighed occasionally,
and appeared to feel safe only when
close to its deliverer.

A Pleasant Time.

The party given by the New Century
Club of Volcano to its mem bers, which
was held at the residence of L. CASH
nelli on March 18th, was declared a
success by all who attended. Three

other members if not to the ones being
initiated. After the initiation the
meeting of the Club was held. Nellie
BoydstOn and Bertha Lucot, who were
on the committee of entertainment,
entertained the mem ers in a royal
manner that was enjoyed by all.
Games were played until twelve o'clock
when refreshments were served, after
which the members went to their homes
declaring that they had spent delight
full evening. Those present were

Committed Suicide.

A 17-year old girl committed suicide
in San Andreas last Monday morning
by taking laudanum. 1t is said that
this was her third attempt at suicide,
on one occasion having tried to shoot
herself. But a month or so ago she
left the home of her parents, but was
brought back from Valley Springs by
a constable.
1t appears that the young lady had
been paid some attention by certain
young man of San Andreas, but of late
had not appeared so friendly toward
her. This, it is supposed, was the in
direct cause of her death.
Early Monday morning she was seen
ascending hill in San Andreas and
later she passed the Raggio stage barn.
1t was noticed that her step was un-
steady. A short distance from the
barn she fell. Several persons rushed
to her assistance and doctor was call
ed, but in few moments all was over,
the soul of the young girl had taken
its flight.
1t is supposed that she went up the
hill and took the poison, and returned,
the walk making the effect of the drug
more certain.

IN MEMORIAM.

Mrs. Robert Jameson, whose death
occurred in San Francisco March 4th,
was born in Iowa Feb. I. 1852. but had
lived in this State from infancy. Since
her marriage in 1873, her home had
been near Shenandoah, just across the
border of Ell Dorado county. She
united with the Christian church about
ten years ago and remained faithful
member to her death. Her life has
little of incident to record. She was a
loving wife, true and tender mother,
a faithful friend-all simple womanly
virtues. But in the hearts of those
who knew her best and loved her
most, her memory is hrined as some
thing sweet and sacred and this memory
will live on when Time has brought
healing for their bitter sorrow.
Through the long suffering, entailed
by the disease that Slapped her life
away, she was brave and sweet and
patient and trustful and unshrinking at
the last, passed through the portals of
death to the life that is eternal
The funeral was held in Plymouth,
March 6, at the M. E. church, Rev. S..
H. Phillips officiated, assisted by Rev.
c. H. Darling. The casket was nearly
hidden under wealth of blossoms and
her last resting place had been made
hoo Il ir,, l. nd
ALI that loving hearts and willing
hands could do had been done to soften
the blow to the Borrowing family.
On Thursday, March I, all that re-
manned of Mrs. Sophia L. Horton was
laid to rest in the Shenandoah ceme-
terry. Mrs. Horton, whose maiden
name was Sophia Treat, was born in
Glastonbury, Conn, Dec. +. 1917.
During her young girlhood she remov-
ed to Pike county, Illinois, where she
was married July IA, 1889, to Horace
b. Horton. They moved to Iowa in
1851, and came to this State in 1871,
oO11liuR LII OHoudHuOhu, WulCu was
their home until Mr.. Horizons death
in March, 1894. Mrs. Horton returned
to Iowa in the fall of 1895, but about
two years ago came back to California
and had since lived in Santa Cruz. But
the burden of years had grown heavy
and for several months she had been an
invalid. Mrs. Horton had heart and
sympathies large enough to take in the
whole world, and during her residence
here was "Auntie Horton" to every
child in the Valley
Many a man and woman of the
present day rememb ers mum berless lit
tie kindnesses received from her hands
and in memory of the love she lavished
