A Quiet Wedding.

At an early hour last Sunday morn
ing, in the Catholic church of Jackson,
Peter L. Cassinelli and Miss Media
Giannini both of Jackson, were united
in matrimonial bonds. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. j. j. Gleason,
in the presence of few intimate friends
and relatives of the contracting parties.
The BRIDES sister, Miss G. Giannini,
was bridesmaid, and Alex Eudey best
man. Shortly after the ceremony the
happy pair were driven to lone, and
there took the train for a wedding tour,
which will include San Francisco, Los
Angeles, and other places of interest.
They are expected to return in about
two weeks.
The bride is a daughter of Domenico
Giannini, and is conceded to be one of
the most charming young ladies of
Jackson-comely and attractive in per-
son, pleasing in manner, and amiable
in disposition. The groom is the we'll
known fruit dealer of Jackson, who has
been esta blished for several years in
the fruit and vegetable business near
the Broadway bridge. The Ledger ex-
tends its congratulations to the couple
so auspiciously launched on welded
life, and hopes that Gfe's journey for
them may be one of perpetual sunshine
and happiness. Upon their return,
Mr.. and Mrs. Cassinelli will occupy a
cottage on Stump street, near Marre's
hotel, which has been nicely fitted up
for their reception.

The Boardman Estate.

Mrs. Laura De Force Gordon was in
jackson Saturday, having business in
the superior court in relation to the
Boardman estate, involving the title to
ITO acres in the vicinity of Volcano.
The matter has been in an unsettled
condition for nearly 25 years. The
land was taken up by Boardman and
several others as mining ground. 1t
was worked out in early days, and no
mining has been done on it since its
last location. 1t is no longer valuable
for mining purposes, but stands on the
records of the land office as mining
ground, an application for patent hav-
ing been filed in Sacramento, but never
perfected. 1t is now sought to be
entered as homestead, but before this
can be done the mineral must be prov
ed off. The distinguished lady at
torney has been employed to straighten
out this tangle, and quiet title to the
property for the Boardman heirs.

GREAT TIMES AT GREEK CHURCH.
Bishop Tikon and Rev. Sebastian Dabo-
vich Present-The debt on the Par
sonage wiped out.

The past week has been memorable
period in the history of the Greek
church of Jackson. The Rev. Sebas-
tian Dabovich came up Thursday of
last week, and on Saturday Bishop
Tikon, head of the church on the Pa
ciic coast, arrived. The occasion of
the visit of both these distinguished
prelates was the anniversary of St.
Savva, the patron saint of the local
church. The reverend Dabovich on
Saturday afternoon repeated his lecture
on the immortality of the SOUL and on
Sunday afternoon lectured on the evil
dences of the truth of Christianity On
Sunday morning, also on Monday
morning, Bishop Tikon celebrated high
mass. He was arrayed in the gorgeous
.sacerdotal robes, resplendent with
jewels. The like of these sacred vest
ments has never before been seen in
Jackson. He also conducted service
Sunday evening, crowded audience
greeting him on each occasion. The
Sclavonians generally were highly
pleased at the visit of the bishop, the
second time he has been in Jackson,
and they turned out en- masse to greet
him. The Servian flag or shield, which
was sent as gift to the church by the
Prince of Montenegro, over a year ago,
was raised for the first time on this
ngto-be-rememb bered festivity. AS
a result OF the visit of these high Of
ficials, the debt on the newly built par
sonage, amounting to about $500, has
been wiped out. This debt has been
source of anxiety, and an effort was
made to liquidate it. With contribu-
tions and proceeds of lectures $3.50 was
raised, and the balance was furnished
by enthusiastic members, so that this
incubus will trouble the church no
more. Bishop Tikon and Rev. Dabo-
vich left for San Francisco Tuesday
morning. The latter expects to be
here again in six weeks.

Obituary.

Peter Onelia, after lingering illness
of miners consumption, died at his
home at Jackson Gate on Sunday last.
He had been incapacitated from doing
any work from this insidious disease
for over 13 months. He had worked
in the mines around Jackson for num-
ber of years, and the powder smoke and
other conditions incident to his call
ing brought on the fatal malady. He
went to San Francisco in the early
stages of the disease in the hope of
finding relief at the hands of physicians
there, but they held out no hope of
permanent benefit. He was only 81
years of age, when his career was cut
short by death. He leaves a young
wife and three small children, who
would have been totally unprovided for
were it not for the fact that before the
commencement of his fatal sickness he
had the foresight to take out a policy
in the New York Life Insurance Com
pany for $1,000. He was also a men,
Der of the italian Benevolent Society
and of the Ancient Order of Druids.
The funeral took place on Tuesday
afternoon, under the charge of the
Italian Society. Services we're held in
the Catholic church, the Rev. Father
Gleeson officiating. 1t was the largest
funeral witnessed in Jackson for a LONG
time. Members of the italian Society
from all parts of the county attended.
The lodge of Druids from Sutter Creek
attended in a body out of respect for
their departed brother. The pro-
cession of vehicles that followed the re-
mains to the grave was fully quarter
of mile long, and the number of those
on foot was also unusually large.

New Harness Shop.

By advertisement in another column
it will be seen that Charles Freeman
and P. Piccardo have commenced busi-
ness in the saddle and harness line.
They have secured premises on Water
street, opposite Ginocchio's warehouse.
They will keep full supply of ready
made harness and saddles, and do re-
pairing of all kinds. Both young men
have had considerable experience in
this line of business. A harness shop
has been dissideratum in Jackson for
some time. There is good field here
for such an enterprise, and we bespeak
for the new firm the full support and
confidence of the public in their partic-
ular department.

Minus His Checks.

Early this week three men named
Fitzpatrick, Oscar Beck, and colored
man named Jackson, came down from
the uppor country, where they had
been employed on the ditch. All of
them had consider money in the
shape of checks when they struck
camp at jackson. Like most of the
men who have found work on the
ditch, they were all devotees at the
shrine of Bacchus and it was not long
before they had filled up in good shape.
Fitzpatrick had $400 in checks about
him; Beck had 1886 in five checks of
the Standard Electric Company. The
darkey had smaller amount. After
doing the town, they finally got to bed
Monday night, Beck and jackson oc-
cupying the same room. Fitzpatrick
put up elsewhere. Next morning Beck
discovered that his checks were miss
ing. Constable Kay took up the mat
ter, but could find no trace of the
money. No attempt had been made to
cash any of the checks at the business
houses. The bank was notified to stop
payment of the paper if presented, and
there is no probability that any one
save the rightful owner can realize on
them, Jackson was arrested on sus-
picion and placed in jail, but nothing
of an discriminating nature could be
found, and he was released. Fitz-
patrick on hearing of his friends loss,
found his checks still clinging to him,
but he lost no time thereafter in secur-
ing Wells Fargo mOney orders on San
Francisco payable only to himself.

Arrested for Forgery.

A man named w. F. Aldrach was ar
rested by Sheriff Gregory last night,
on charge of forgery committed in
Sacramento in November last. He has
been in Jackson gambling ever since
November, and went by the name of
Wilson. A card was sent up to the
sheriff's Office some time ago, giving a
description of the wanted man. 1t sets
forth that he is 81 years of age, 6 feet
high, weighs $50 lbs, curly hair. The
officers got the idea that he answered
the description, but telephoned for
further description relative to a certain
scar diagonally across his wrist. He is
said to have committed forgery in Utah,
also in Reno, but got out Of these
through his father, who is reported to
be wealthy. Max Fisher is expected
here tonight or tomorrow, to take the
prisoner to Sacramento.

CarbOndale Bridge Completed.

We are pleased to be able to state
that the bridge near Carbondale is at
last completed. The material COM
menced arriving on the ground two
weeks ago, and as soon as it was all
there, the contractor, G. W. Swain,
went to work with sufficient force of
men to complete the structure in four
days. 1t is 15 inches higher than the
old bridge, thereby allowing much
larger space for the flow of water.
Supervisors Newman, Amick, Moore,
and LIE Moin inspected the bridge in a
body last Wednesday, and were fully
satisfied with it. They report that it
is good serviceable bridge, and fully
up to the terms of the contract.

MINING NEWS.

CENTRAL LEUREKA-Twenty stamps,
not ten as reported last week, are being
added to the milling capacity. This
will make 40 stamps in all. The work
is being pushed as fast as circumstances
will permit. 1t will probably be a
couple of months before the additional
stamps are ready to drop. Large
bodies of low grade ore exist in the
levels already opened, and mixed with
the smaller quantity of high grade rock
can be made to pay. Hence the need
of more milling capacity. The mine is
looking well. In fact the prospects of
both mines on Sutter hili-the Central
and South Eureka-neverl looked better
than at present. A modern 4O-stamp
mill at the South Eureka is among the
probabilities next spring.
AMADoR-PHoENIX. last,
Judge Rust, S. G. Spagnoli, DR.. A. M.
Gall and L. ]. Fontenrose, who are all
heavily interested in this property,
paid visit to the mine. The mill has
not been started on the clean rock, as
the quantity on the dump-about 60
tons-is not enough to warrant start
ing. Some rock that is being taken
from the depth of 100 feet shows free
gold. The ledge has widened out to
five feet at the bottom of the drift.
They are drifting east and west on the
ledge. The mill is in readiness to start
up, and in a few days test crushing of
the ore will be made.
KIRKwooD.-This company is about
to be reorganized. for the purpose of
crosscutting west for ledge which, in
the opinion of many, exists in that
direction.
The Mitchell mine has had to shut
down frequently during the week,
owing to the severe frost freezing the
motive power, which is water.
David Fisher and John McKelvey are
developing the Mckenzie mines on the
Rabbit Ridge lode. At seventy-five
feet in depth the ledge is seven and
one-half feet wide, and assays over $40
per ton. They have an arastra run
ming continuously to prove the actual
free milling value of the ore.
Mr.. Lewis of San Francisco, was a
visitor to the Spagnoli mine this week,
getting the necessary data for the pro-
posed new machinery for hosting,

Disease Among Indians.

An epidemic of measles has been
prevalent among the Indians in the
vicinity of Pine Grove for several
weeks. 1t is reported as measles, but
whether it is identical with that disease
as known among the white population
we are unable to say. The mother of
Indian Georgia. we'll known character
around the Grove-died at the Indian
camp near Pine Grove of this complaint
about three weeks ago. Thereafter
the afflicted ones were removed to the
reservation near New York ranch.
Indian Jim died there about a week
ago, and his wife-known as Louisa
is also very sick from the same COM
plant at the reservation.

A SUCCESSFUL PERFORMANCE.
The Presentation of Lynwood for the
Benefit of st. Augustine's Church.

The presentation of the drama of
Lynwood by the Jackson Histrionic
Club in Loves hall last Saturday even
ing drew forth well-filled house. This
was not only because the performance
was given for worthy object, namely,
the benefit of ST. Augustine's Episcopal
church of Jackson, but also because
the performers were all local amateurs,
except Byron Allison, who has had
some experience as professional actor.
The players worked hard for several
weeks in rehearsing for this event, and
while the drama, consisting of five acts,
was thought to be rather heavy piece
for amateurs, they all acquitted them
selves creditably. The night was Bit
terly cold, and this initiated against
The comfort OF both performers and
audience. 1t would be out of place to
give special prominence to any Of the
participants. Their services were free
ly and voluntarily rendered to help
along worthy cause, and it is pleas
ing to add that their efforts in this be-
half were substantially rewarded. The
cast of character was as follows:
Lucille Carlyle. .............. Miss Hilda Clough.
Gay Carlyle .............. Miss Loretta Meehan.
Kate Wilmarth. ..... Miss Dooley Sanguinetti.
Col Victor Blanchard. Mr.. Byron Allison.
Judge Carlyle. DR.. l.. E, Phillips.
Col. Dudley Middleton ...........Ro Ross F. Moon.

All the reserved seats were sold long
before the opening of the doors. After
the performance social dance was
given, and tripping of the light fan
tastic was INDUCED in until o'clock.
Those who took part in the perform
ance were treated to an excellent sup
per at the National hotel dining rooms
after the play. There was substantial
sum realized for the benefit of the
church after defraying all expenses,
but the exact amount we are unable to
state.
We have since learned that the per-
formance netted $87 for the church.
