John Chinn, the well known saloon
keeper of Jackson, who went to San
Francisco last week to seek medical
advice, is reported to be in serious con-
dition in the city. He has been con-
fined to his bed most of the time since
he left. His trouble is shortness of
breath, supposed to be caused by heart
trouble. Mrs. Chinn is with him.
A large quantity of machinery for
the electric plant of the Standard Com
pany has passed through town the
past week. The machinery is shipped
from the east, and the delay in its re-
eeption has been owing to the great
strike of employees of the iron and steel
trust, which is now settled. There is
not likely to be any further delay in
getting the machinery.
The exclusive passenger train on the
lone road, after brief experience in
that line, has been abandoned, and the
old order of things again prevails.
Freight cars are again attached to the
passenger service, with the stoppages
going and returning as of yore. The
caboose for passengers attached to the
regular afternoon freight train still
continues.
When the case of Stephen Paris VS..
Henry We'll was called up for trial
before Judge Goldner last week, the
plaintiff failed to materialize and the
matter was continued without day. It
was represented to the court that the
plaintiff was taken suddenly III, but it
developed that this was not
true. Presumably the plaintiff fore
saw the outcome and gave up the
ghost. The case will probably be dis
missed.
The brick addition which Ginocchio
Brothers have added to their business
frontage on Water street is completed
as far as the brickwork and the lower
story is concerned. The finish of the
top of the front has called forth some
comment about the architectural de-
sign. Mr.. Kuhlman, the architect,
explains the matter by saying that the
plans have been departed from so as to
complete the lower story this season.
The design, however, calls for two
story front, the additional story to be
built hereafter, and when built the
symmetry of the building will be
apparent.
The cost of subsistence of the patients
in the hospital of Calaveras county for
the month of October is said to be
$3.50 per head. This is the actual cost
of board and clothing, and does not
include salaries and incidental expen-
ses. This is about II cents per day
per patient. In the Amador institu-
tion the maintenance bill foots up about
the same. The number of patients in
Calaveras exceeds Amador's list by an
average of 10. Outside of the cost of
maintenance. the comparison is decid-
edly in favor of Amador from an eco
nomical standpoint. 1t takes six salar-
led officials for the hospital of our sister
county, whereas we get along very
smoothly with four.
