VOLCANO. CAL, Nav IL.

NOGCANO, SAL., May 10.
Our little town is not often called
upon to witness the sad sight of two
open graves in one day, but such was
seen last Thursday. Mr.. Marble died
on Tuesday of last week, and near by
his grave was that of DR.. Robert, who
also died on Tuesday. Mr.. Marble had
reached the age OF eighty-ive, and
had been in feeble health for some
time. He was an old settler, and for
many years cultivated small patch of
ground for strawberries, from which
he made a good living, until extreme
age rendered him incapable of attend
ing to his work.
Mrs. Ginocchio and daughters, who
have been visiting friends in Volcano
for the past week, returned to their
home in Reno, New, last Saturday.
Miss Grace Ross and Mr.. Richards
left for San Francisco to attend the
Rebekah and 1. o. o. F. assembly.
Among Volcanoes visitors this week
the following may be numbered: DR..
and Mrs Gall, Mr.. and Mrs. Dwyer
of Jackson, DR.. and Mrs. Staples of
Amador, Drs. Goodman and O'Conner
of Sutter.
Father Maloney held services in the
Catholic church on Wednesday morn
ing.
Rev. Geo. Beatty of San Francisco,
organized a Sunday school in the
Protestant church on Sunday after
noon.
Geo. Mitchell is not yet through
Dragging about his twelve pound boy
which is now nearly a month old.

FROM CORRESPONDENTS
Letters From Volcano, Pine Grove,
Plymouth and Amador City.
VOLCANO, CAL, May II, 1903,

VOLCANO, CAL, May II, 1908,
In the last weeks issue of the Ledger
was chronicled the sad and sudden
death of DIR. Albert N. Robert of this
place, and tribute paid to his sterling
worth; but it is here where he was
best known that his death brings sad
ness to the many hearts. 1t has been
his mission to do much good, and his
patients became his faithful friends.
The sorrowing faces about his bier told
more impressively than words how
universally he was beloved.
The room where the casket was
placed was filed with beautiful frag-
rant aowers-a pillow in white carna-
tions and ferns, bearing the words
"Our BROTHER" from the Masonic
fraternity, which order conducted the
funeral services according to their
beautiful and impressive ritual. A
selected choir from Pine Grove and
Volcano sang number of appropriate
hymns. The brothers of the mystic
tie then consigned the remains of their
well-beloved brother to the grave,
made beautiful by loving hands. DR..
Roberts place in our midst cannot be
filled, and we grieve in submitting the
decree of an unerring God.
Rest rest-His sleeping after pain;
When lights are down and curtains close we
sleep;
The stars watch on, their pale rays family
keep
Their unseen vigil o'er the slumbering one.
Not death-but reSt-the music of the spheres
The angels lullaby OF sweet repose.
We should not weep-'tis well=+God knows,
And 1t Is sweet to sleep.
Such strenuous living How the pulses throb,
Life's little triumphs-joys-its cares and
pain;
The wondrous workings of the busy brain.
Till It is time to rest-He calls us home
Think not of death, but rest,
More peaceful and profound, that does not
dream
In half unconscious pain. 1t should not seem
That dreadful parting-surely He knows best
Tis hard to say "goodby," but not good
night''l
We all must sometimes sleep at close of day.
And if the W cary one can only pray
With soul unstained-'tis WE'LL
HE giveth His beloved Sleep" why weep?
The wayward, weary, Sustained soul needs
rest
Rest, rest, indeed, like those their works op-
q, pressed
For them the angels weep-we all need sleep,
Not death, but Gods own rest!

lone Picnic a Success.

The picnic held at lone last Friday
under the auspices of the Rebekahs
was grand success. Jackson and SUIT
ter folks were there by the hundreds
and all report as having an enjoyable
time. The music was furnished by the
Jackson Band. The feature of the day
was the ball game between the Lodi's
and Jackson's, which resulted in favor
of the ''melon" team, the score being
s to 3. At the end of the seventh in
ming the ''mother loders" were ahead,
3 to ,, but at fatal moment an error
was made causing defeat. A return
game between the opposing teams is
expected in the near future.

ed by the Volcano Lodge, No. Sc, F.
& A. M:
Whereas, it has pleased the Great
Master of the Universe to remove from
earth the soul of our beloved brother,
DIR. Albert N. Robert, it is fitting that
we should place upon our minutes
record of his death, and of our sorrow;
therefore be it
Resolved, that while we bow in hum
BILE submission, to the:decree of an all
wise Ruler we grieve because of the
loss which our lodge, and the people of
the community, have sustained in the
death OF our treasure, and greatly be-
loved brother, DR.. Albert N. Robert.
Resolved, that our brother was an
able and conscientious man, who won
the confidence and respect of all classes
as he lived among them, practicing his
profession. He was deeply attached to
the lodge and we most truly mourn the
loss of good mason.
Resolved, that we tender our heart
felt sympathy and coincidence to the
relatives of the deceased.
Resolved, that these resolutions be
entered upon our minutes. and a copy,
with the seal of the lodge attached, be
sent to the family of the deceased
brother.

examined and corrected by that officer.
1t will take couple of weeks yet before
the official returns are in shape for

An Automobile Came to Town.

P. E. Holt, of the Holt Manufacture
ing Co. of Stockton, with friend,
came to Jackson last Sunday in an
automobile. They made the run up in
about five hours, not including stops,
which is pretty fast travelling over
mountain roads. The presence of an
automobile in town caused unusual in
terest, particularly so among the chill
dren, as many of them never before
have had chance to see horseless
carriage. Mr.. Holt left Jackson at

the same evening.

this month. 1t is some years, we
believe, since the last full list was pub

had no opportunity of keeping track of
such matters. The contract for hos
pital supplies was awarded to E.

to the Freeman Estate Co., both with
out competition. The lists are worthy

UNITED STATES LAWS
Don't Suit Some People any Mere
Than Arizona Statutes.

This is a jolly good government when
it does what we want it to do. When
it don't Americans are just as apt 10
kick over the traces as anybody else.
Down in Bisbee. Naco and Douglas
there is an unwritten law that TO chi
nese shall abide in those parts longe:
than the incidents of through travel
necessitate. An El Paso Chinalnan
went to Naco a few days ago TO locate,
but notwithstanding his papers were
all right and his authority came from
the United States government, he did
not stay.
Another incident is recalled that ZAP
pened on June Is. John Bolan engaged
in prize fight, contrary to the laws of
the United States governing territories,
for which offense he was tried, con-
victed and sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for one year, being now engaged
in serving his time. And now. the Bis
bee people are sore about that and are
circulating a petition to the president
asking for his pardon at the expiration
of three months. 1t just seems impos-
sible for the government to frame up
the statutes So they will suit the rest
less residents along the line.
This state OF affairs recalls what the
landscape gardener said after a herd
of swine had passed through one Of mis-
favOrite plats recently remodeled. He
didn't get mad because everything was
torn up, but quietly remarked that he
never could lay ground to suit d hog,

TROOPERS CLOSE CALL
Narrowly Escaped Bleeding to Death
Near Fort Whipple.

Thursday a serious accident took
place at the target ranges seven miles
northeast of Prescott, as a result OF
which a trooper named Harlan. be-
longing to Troop K, Fifth cavalry, al
most bled to death, says the Prescott
Herald. Afterwards the wounded SOL
der and three companions had mar
row escape from drowning, together
with four-mule team.
A number of soldiers are working at
the range getting the butts and targets
in shape for the coming competitive
target practice. Thursday afternoon
when the rain started to fall a large
number OF the boys fastened to get
under a large shed built at the range
for the purpose OF keeping the targets
and other supplies used dry. Just as
Trooper Harlan went in 4 saw, which
was hanging on the wall, loosened by
the wind, dropped, hitting the trooper
on the right arm, severing the brachial
artery at the elbow. The artery is one
of the main ones of the body. The
blood spurted out of the arm in a
stream. and the soldier would have
soon bled to death had the flow not
been stopped. Quartermaster Sergeant
Lee, Fourteenth cavalry, of Wingate,
the wound and stopped the flow of
blood. AS the rain was falling in tor
rents it was thought best to wait under
the shed until the storm abated to
bring the man to the hospital
After waiting an hour it was decided
to start out anyway, as Harlan's arm
was beginning to swell. Sergeant Lee
was put in charge of Harlan and Told
TO take him to Fort Whipple az quickly
as possible. A four-mule ambulance
was at hand and the wounded soldier.
accompanied by Sergeant Lee and
Private Haines, Fifth cavalry. started
for town. The ambulance was driven
by John Marshall, who is d civilian in
the employ OF the government. When
the ambulance reached a point this
side OF the range a couple of miles,
where the road led along the bank Of
the creek, the occupants saw that the
stream was so swollen that the road
was covered with water. At IL point
where the road turned to the left, and
was invisible on account of the water
the mules kept straight ahead, piIing
into the creek where the water was
about eight feet deep.
When the rig went into the creek the
bandage slipped from the arm of
Trooper Harlan and the blood began to
flow freely again. With the water up
to their necks. as they sat in the am
bulance. and the mules swimming down
the stream, with the wagon floating,
Sergeant Lee held to the wounded
mans arm, stopping the flow of blood
as much as possible. The team did not
get out until the whole outfit had float
ed fully eco yards down the Stream
every minute in danger of tipping the
occupants out. Had the mules been
easily excited there is no telling what
would have been the result.
When the road was again reached
Trooper Harlan insisted on holding the
artery with the other hand, saying he
was afraid the tourniquet would kill
the arm. For fully forty-five minutes

ATTACHMENT OF CARTER
He Will Have a Preliminary Hearing
Tomorrow.

w. NJ. Carter, the alleged forSer, was
given a great deal of exercise yester-
day walking from the Jail to the vari-
Gus offices of justices OF the peace to
be arraigned. He was first taken be-
fore Justice Burnett, where the origin
al warrant was issued. His prelimin-
airy trial was set for tomorrow and his
bail was fixed at $780,
He was then taken to the office of
Justice Robertson, who had issued a
warrant on account of the check which
he had passed at the Boston store. In
that case the bond was fixed at $500.
Either is sufficient to hold him until
the time of examination.
The downfall of Carter is laid to
gambling. He drank, but not to eX-
cess, but he was possessed of mania
which led him to attempt to get rich
by beating the games, especially roul-
cite, which seems so easy when one
gets So for l. His plan was to break
the games quickly, so as to put the
dealers out of their misery, and so
when he had the money he played dol
lar shots. He always intended to re-
store the money he owed out of what
he was going to win, but he was a
bad guesser and failed to win once in
thiTty-five times.
No particular sorrow is felt for him
by any of his acquaintance here, but
they regret the affair on account of his
family.
