Fire Alarm.

Z. 81. Schmidt was over from Sutter
Creek Wednesday to look into the
matter of installing new fire alarm
System for Jackson. Now that the
bell is in position, something has to be
done to get it to ring in case of fire.
The electric system formerly used did
not give satisfaction. It was little
better than no system. 1t is now pro-
posed to retain the electric alarm. but
on another plan, that will obviate the
objections TO the one formerly employ
cd. A single set OF overhead wires will
be used, TO connect with five alarm boxes
in different parts of the city, and an
enunoiator at each of the fire houses,
Another set of wires will connect
with the water pipe under GROUND, at
a point near to the alarm boxes, aud
taking the current from the pipe close
to the fire houses, connecting with the
enunciatOrs. The wires will not be
laid underground, the water pipe
answering all the purposes of an indie
pendent line. The alarm boxes will be
constructed SO that in order to turn in
an alarm Il crank must be turned,
similar to a telephone box; the turn
ing of the crank generating the current
that will ring the bell. 1t is said To be
practically tue same system that has
been in successful operation in other
places. Mr.. Schmidt is willing to in
stall it, aud the pay TO be made con-
tingent upon its giving satisfaction.
One advantage Of this method is said
TO be the impossibility of giving a
false alarm by crossing wires, Or by
simply pressing button The system
will take about week to get in run
ming order.

MINING NEWS.

W1LDMAN-Ten additional stamps
were started at this mine on Monday
morning-making 80 stamps now In
motion. Sinking has been suspended.
at the Mahoney only three men are
employed underground
DoYLE.-Eforts are being made to
put this property on working basis.
Capitalists of Vacaville have taken
hold of the matter and secured a bond,
and have Incorporated. The intention
is to sell stock at 300 per share, pay
able in monthly calls OF as per share.
1t Is said that considerable stock has
been subscribed on these terms. The
property is considered on the east or
leila vein, adjoining the Amador Queen
No. ] on the north. For the work
done, it shows good pros peot for de-
veloping into paying mine. 1t is
hoped that the company will soon see
its way clear to start work. Nothing
will DO done on the ground until suffici-
ent stock has been placed to secure
continuous developments work, The
development OF mine south of Jack
sou is the one thing ueedtul for this
community. The gold bearing material
is undoubtedly there. The surface
workings have yielded handsomely
from gravel and broken up quartz
seams. But pay shoot of quartz iu
place has not yet been developed in
this stretch Of four miles between Jack
sou and the Mokelunne river, Con-
siderable systematic prospecting has
been done, but somehow the right spot
has not been stumbled upon. The
course of the main fissure-the mother
lode-is a matter of conjecture,
REED AND ASKEY. San Jose parties
have bonded the half interest of Mrs.
NJ. Askey in this property, which is
located near Wieland. Four men have
been started to work to prospect the
claim. In bygone days some exceed
iugly rich ore was extracted from this
mine.
SARGENT-W. b. Thomas has notices
posted calling for bids for sinking the
shaft 300 feet, bids to be seut in by July
21; the contractor TO furnish powder

Real Estate Sale.

w. +. Detert has purchased the half
interest of C. II. Renno in the We'll
building. 1t is reported that the price
paid was $1,000, subject of course to the
mortgage or trust deed held by the
Bank of Amador County on the prop
erty, the amount still owing on said
mortgage being about $4,000, This
would bring the valuation of the prop
erty, according to this deed, to $4,000.
1t seems that Mr.. Detert has had an
option on this building of several years
standing. According to the terms of
the option, if either OF the partners
wished TO sell, Mr.. Detert was to have
the first right to purchase, He was
not particularly anxious to invest in
this realty, and in fact had about COM
pleted arrangements to transfer his
option TO another party. At this
juncture, however, the old bugaboo
about the foundation wall ON the south
side extending somewhat upon the ad-
joining lot was raised, with the view of
preventing the sale by throwing a
cloud upon the title. This attempt
had just the opposite effect to that in
tended. He decided to buy at once,
and did SO. Rumor has il that the
purchase may have some connection
with the starting Of a new bank, which
has been talked of for sone time.

Republican Club Meeting,

There was small attendance al the
meeting of the Jackson republican club
held on Tuesday evening last. The
resignation OF e. V. zumbiel as Sec
rotary was read and accepted. The
resignation was owing to pressure of
other business, which made il impossi-
bic for him to attend to the duties of
the position. Jas. ]. Wright was
elected to FIJI tho vacancy.
\ communication was read from the
state central committee on the subject
of registration, calling upon county
central committees and republican
newspapers to urge the matter upon
voters at every opportunity. 1t was
pointed out that registration is not
proceeding anything like Us fast as it
ought to.
On account of the Athletic club meet
ing being on Monday evening, the reg
ular meeting night of the republica n
club was changed from the second Mon
day to the first Saturday night OF each
month, the change to take effect at
once. The next meeting will therefore
be held on Saturday, August 2.
The call of the state committee for a
state convention to be held in Sacra-
mento on August %, was read. Coun-
ty committees are required to take
action in regard to the election of dele
gates to this convention not later than
the 25th of July. So that during the
coming week something will be done to
start the political machinery in this
county.

The Thistle Nuisance.

Editor Ledger
was glad to see, in a recent issue
or your paper, an item regarding the
great need of extinguishing the growth
of the so. called Canada thistle, and I
cannot imagine why it is allowed to
grow so freely right on good farms or
along the fences of such, aud the coun-
ty roads. I was coming through Jack
son the other day, and when a little
past Mares hotel, on the left hand
side, going north, saw a whole block,
or near it, with beautiful crop of
thtstles. l thought some one must be
cultivating the pest, or else they had
grudge against Jackson and the people
In general. think we, as citizens,
should be public spirited enough to rid
our own land OF this nuisance. Let
each individual root it out OF his own
land, and let the supervisors have it
removed from the roadsides wherever
it is found on public domain. l have
noticed it in the valley below us, right
in the road, where it would be as high
as horse, and just across the fence
would be beautiful grain field with
here and there thistles growing up with
the fine grain. l thought the farmer
was not doing his duty to himself. In
some of the middle states they have
neglected it so long that now it is caus-
ing them great deal Of time and
money to weed it out. | am not a
farmer Though l was born on big
one in Wisconsin, but | am surprised
that our agriculturists have not been
awake to the severity of this thistle
pest, aud taken some strong action
looking to the banishment of this evil
from our cherished and fruitful little
county of AmadOr, which asks odds OF
no county for fruit, flowers, or gold,

Board Of Equalization.

The board of supervisors met as a
board of equalization on Monday last,
for the purpose of equalizing assess
ments.
Fayette Mace was the only applicant
that appeared before the board. He
asked for reduction on the Modoc
mine from $500 to 300, and also for q
reduction of the assessed valuation on
his lands in township 3 to S1.25 per
acre. After hearing testimony, the
board denied both applications.
The board will have another meet
ing on Monday next. the 2lst instant,
providing any applications are fled
with the clerk in the meantime If
there is nothing for consideration, tue
board will not meet again.

AN IMPORTANT SUIT IN GALA
VERAS.
Tbs Lightnsr and Utica Again join
Isaue

This Friday morning an important
suit was filed in the superior court here
by the Lightner Mining Company
against Alvinza Hayward c. D. Lane,
and the Hobart Estate Company in
volving question of trespass by what
is commonly known as the Utica Com
papy, upon the grounds of the Light
ncr. The complaint after the usual
preliminary statements, alleges that
according to it's belief, the Utios Com
pany has within the last three years,
entered upon the grounds Of the plain
tiff below the $50 foot level and ex-
tracted ore, etc.
The plaintiff alleges that up to June
1901, its own workings we're not deep
enough to discover tho trespass. Dam
ages are asked in the sum of SI2, 900.
1t will doubtless be- remembered that
suit similar to this was begun in the
court several years ago. After drag
ging along for several years it was
finally dismissed by agreement, each
side paying its own costs. There is
some question whether or not this set
tlement will not be bar to this suit.
There Will also come up the question
OF the exact location of the boundary
line between the two claims. At the
former trial this question arose, but
was never definitely determined. The
Utica Company has always claimed
that 1t was clearly within its boundary
with the exception of some of the
earlier workings, which were conceded
to DO inadvertently on the Lightner
ground, but which was included in the
ement.-Prospect.

Burning Grasshoppsrs,

In Drytown last Saturday they had
a close call OF serious conhagration.
Antoine Matulich had a few grass
hoppers in his cabbage patch. He had
heard that fire was an effectual way OF
of them. So without any
precautions worth mentioning to stay
the progress of the flames, he set fire
to the grass. He soon realized that
there were other things that would
burn much faster than the hoppere,
and the fire was beyond his control in
no time. The citizens of the town
turned out en- masse to fight the fire,
as it threatened the whole town. Be-
fore it was extinguished it burned over
about two acres, and approached with.
in few feet of large hay stack.
Fortunately, there was no loss outside
of the grass consumed. Matulich and
many others have found out that try
ing to burn up grasshoppers is the
riskiest of risky experiments.

also his eyes, and he suffered terribly.
His malady was Yellow Jaundice. He
was treated by the best doctors, but
without benefit. Then he was advised

Poisoning the System,

1t is through the bowels that the
body is cleansed of impurities. Consti.

unless remedy is applied. De Wits
Little Early Risers prevent this trouble
by stimulating the liver and promote
