Banquet to Judge Dooling.

The members of Excelsior Parlor No.
81, N. S. G. W., gave an informal BAN
.quet to Judge N. 7. Dooling of Hol-
lister, one of the grand trustees of the
order, on Wednesday evening at the
National hotel. Covers we're laid for
about 20 people. John Kelley, presi-
dent of Excelsior Parlor, presided.
During the evening Judge Dooling,
who is making his annual tour of the
district, stated that so far as his di-
vision was concerned it was financially
in most satisfactory condition, and
he called upon the members of the
order present to do all in their power
to increase their mem bership during
the coming year. After brief remarks
by Judge Rust, Wilfred Dennis, Will
Jones, I. K Norman, w. McSorley
of San Andreas, and others, the pro-
ceedings terminated with a topical
song in Chinese by Sam Avise, entitled,
Little All Sing" the rendition OF
which was received with much laughter
and applause.
Last evening Keystone Parlor, N. S.
G. W., of Amador City, also gave a
banquet to Judge Dooling in that town.
A large number were present, includ-
ing several prominent members oil

PLYMOUTH.

PLYMOUTH, Dec. 19.-Dr. Hartly
lectured in the Nj. E. church last even
ing, his lecture seemed to be fully ap-
preciated by the audience.
Our town was shocked yesterday by
the suicide of j. A. Gessler, one of the
Oldest settlers here. He had been quite
ill for some time, day and night nurse
being necessary. When the day nurse,
G. Cato, had gone to the hotel for Mr..
Gessler's dinner, the latter seated him
self in chair, with his feet resting on
another chair, and fired pistol shot
into his mouth Mr.. Cato was gone
but very short time when he return
ed he found the old man dead. The
deceased was both a Mason aud Odd
Fellow. The funeral will take place
tomorrow at 2 p. m.
Mesdames Norris and Gordon of Oak
land. came up last week to be with
their mother, Mrs. Easton, who is quite
i'll.
Mrs. Ella Gilmore, well-known
dressmaker of this place, and Curby
Cato of Drytown, were married at
Reno, Nevada, last week They will
make their future home here.
Miss Genieve McClare of the city, is
the guest of Miss Maeme Doman.
A son was born TO Mr.. and Mrs.
Waite last week.
The littlo three and half year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Cato was
laid in its last resting place here to-day.
He died last Monday in Sutter Creek.
Kind and loving friends lined and dec
GRATED the grave beautifully. Some
very pretty floral pieces were also con-
tributed by the Native Daughters of
Forest Parlor No. Sc, of which the
mother was a member, and friends.
The bereaved ones have the heartfelt
sympathy of all.

self with streets having discounted
the lots nearest to the business cen
ter on account of their distance from
the then eXisting'outlets; having dis
posed of the lots on easier terms of
deferred payments than were ever
before offered to the home
seeker in Jackson and with
out one dollar of income property in
the entire neighborhood, the writer
then thought he had done his
full duty in the premises. He has
no apologies to offer now.
While deeming the above reasons
sufficient, there were other and far
more potent personal considerations
that barred him from doing anything
further. Into the nature of these
reasons it is not necessary to inquire,
but we may add that though we had
been guaranteed that any sum we
might have contributed would have
been returned with tenfold value.
we should not have veered one lot
from the path that we pursued in
this particular instance

0AChSON, CAL., DeC. 10, 19UZ.
To the School Trustees of Amadol
County.
Gentlemen.--
Auditor c. S. Culbert reported
to me, Dec. Is, 1902, that there is
SS362 81 available for apportionment to
the county school fund of the various
school districts of Amador county.
OF the above amount, 1 have appor-
toned SSO97.04; leaving balance OF
S265.93 in the unapportioned county
school fund.
Ten per cent of the amount appor-
toned to each school district is placed
to the credit of the library fund, and
ninety per cent is placed to the credit
of the county fund. The superintend-
ent takes 81 50-1O0 out of the library
fund of each district to pay for the
official journal.
The total amount reported for ap-
portionment by the auditor, Dec. Is,
1902, is S160S. Is less than was reported
by him Dec. 1901. This fact ex-
plains why the present apportionment
is so much less than it was Dec. II, 1901.
The second apportionment will be of
state money, and will be made about
the 18th day of Jan. 1903. The next
apportionment of county money will be
made about the middle of May, 1908.
The fourth and last apportionment for
the present school year (ending June
30, 1909 will be made about the middle
OF July, 1908, and will be of state money.
You have in this report all the data
necessary to verify its accuracy.

NOT ILL TREATED.

An article appeared in the Calaveras
Chronicle three weeks ago, giving de-
tails OF the treatment of some Indian
children on the Indian reservation, a
few miles east of Jackson The article
conveyed the idea that four children,
whose mother and father had died on
the reservation; had been left to shift
for themselves, in q cabin on the tract,
with scant rations supplied at govern
ment expense. The Oldest child, a girl
/ OF twelve, assumed the entire charge of
this household. We have. made in-
quiries of persons living within a short
distance of the reservation, and who
are posted as to how things are con-
Quoted there, and have been informed
by them that there is no foundation
torthe charge of neglect or ill-treat-
ment.' \Mr: Grist, the agent in charge
of the Indians, is of kindly nature,
and the intimation that he would see
wards OF tender age suffer from lack of
prope. sa,'c sc are told does him an in
justice. 1t is the policy of the govern
ment to have the Indians on the reser-
walton shift for themselves as much as
possible; that is, they are expected TO
cook and take care of their own house
holds, being furnished with free rations.
The wisdom of this policy will hardly
be questioned. 1t certainly would not
be wise to do for them things they are
able to do for themselves. They are
helped, but not in the sense of making
thom helpless and indolent charges
| upon the government. We know
nothing about the four children of Ike
Jim, who, as the Chronicle asserts,
were removed from the reservation to
relative in Calaveras, where the
