Death of H. ]. Deacon.

H. j. Deacon, an old and we'll known
resident of this county, died at his home
in this city last Friday morning. His
death, although not entirely unexpect-
ed, is deeply felt in the community for
he has been a respected resident here
for long number of years. He passed
away at the age of 66 years, after life
of usefulness and rearing family. His
occupation was that of mill man, and
the last position he held was that of
foreman in the Kennedy mill. For over
40 years he has lived in the county, and
for about 80 years was foreman of the
old Eureka mill in this city. The cause
of death was due to infrmities of a
number of years standing.
Deceased was member of Henry
Clay Lodge No. 95, F. & A. NJ, and
the funeral services in this place on
Saturday were conducted by that Or
der, Rev. Tuson assisting in his proper
capacity On Sunday the remains were
accompanied to Stockton by M. Brinn
and w. FL. Gonzolas, and Inferred in
that cemetery in the afternoon.
The wife of the deceased survives him
as well as two sons, Edgar and Hira m,
and two daughters, Mrs. Kramer of
Stockton and Mrs. Baughman of Oak
aud.-Record.

A Trip East.

U. G.. Spagnoli, pharmacist at the
Spagnoli drug store, was sent from
jackson as delegate to the grand par
lor N. S. G. W. at Vallejo. While
there he met with many who were en-
thusiastic over the st. Louis exposition,
and at the close of the session Joined a
party and went east to visit relatives
in Pittsburg and take in the great fair.
Mr.. Spagnoli was absent from the state
about two months, and during that
time saw great deal of the country.
He spent three weeks in Pittsburg and
six days at the fair. He went by way
of the Denver and Rio Grande and re-
turned on the North Western Pacific.
He enjoyed stopover privileges both
ways. There were 20 cars filed with
passengers in the east-bound trip. He
speaks enthusiastically over CALIFORNIA; s
prospect of winning first prize. Water
and punch flow freely in every depart
ment of the building. During his ab-
sence he met Prof. 1. W. Kerr, for
merly of Jackson, and says that the
old gentleman is enjoying the very best
of health. Mr., Spagnoli will take
pleasure in giving information regard
ing the fair to any one who contem-
plates making the trip, and estimates
the cost including 10 days stay at
the fair at S135.

Coleman-Juka Nuptials.

On Sunday, June 10, 1904. at high
noon, Joseph Coleman and Mrs. Louisa
Juka were united in the holy bonds of
matrimony by Father Horgan in the
Catholic church in Jackson. Friends
and relatives of the contracting parties
were present in such number as to tax
the sacred edifice to its fullest seating
capacity. Richard Hickson acted as
best man and Mrs. Carrie Leoneasio as
best lady. The ceremony was very
beautiful. At 6 o'clock p. m. about 80
persons sat down to sumptuous we'd
ding dinner at the home of the bride.
Singing and merry making were en-
gagged in until late hour. The small
boys with their tin horns and cow bells
also put in an appearance and were
royalty treated by the groom.
Mrs. Coleman is native daughter of
Amador county, having been born in
Volcano 26 years ago. She has lived
in Jackson for the past thirteen years,
where she is we'll and favorably known
by many of our best citizens. Mr..
Coleman was for nine years member
OF the First Infantry U. S. army, and
rose to the rank of sergeant. He was
stationed at the Preside for i've years.
After the Spanish-American war he
resigned his commission and received
an honorable discharge marked s'Ex-
cellent. He is young man of gen.
tlemanly appearance and a thorough
mechanic. The many friends of the
happy couple will no doubt be pleased
to learn that Mr.. Coleman expects to
engage in business in Jackson and
make this their future home.

Oiled Roads.

D. Mccall has about completed the
first part of his contract for oilipg the
road between Jackson and lone. The
first coat makes quite an impression
since it has become thoroughly mixed
with the dust. From Martell's into
town, where the road has been covered
with good coating of rock, the oil
seems to have had the effect Of cement
ing the rock together and making a
decided Improvement. Where the
dust was heavy for light driving we
prefer the oil to the dust, but some of
the drivers of the freight teams con-
tend that the oil has tendency to
make their loads pull heavier. There
are good arguments for and against the
oiling of the roads, but Supervisors
Moore aud Newman decided to oil and
hired Mr.. Mccall to do the work under
their special supervision. Just when
the second coat will be applied we were
unable to learn. Let those who travel
over the roads judge with impartiality
of the effects of Oiling. and if in favor
of the judgment of the supervisors give
them credit. If unfavorable place the
blame where it belongs. OILER.

Plymouth Celebration.

Not for years in Amador county has
a committee worked so earnestly and
harmoniously to make an undertaking
success as has the one selected to
carry out the program outlined for the
coming celebration in Plymouth. We
understand that at the commencement
of this week nearly everything was
ready, and that not word of discord
had been uttered to mar the speedy
completion of all arrangements. Every
one who can should show their patrio-
tism and appreciation of the work done
by the Plymouth people to appropri-
ately celebrate the glorious old 4th by
adding their presence to the occasion.
1t will take the entire day to carry out
the program, so that there will not be
an uninteresting moment from morning
until after the dance is ended in the
early morning of the 5th. Literary
exercises and parade in the morning,
all kinds of amusements in the after
noon, and fireworks and horribles in
the evening. Don't miss this oppor-
tunity to celebrate. Go early and re-
main all day.

Returned Monday.

Mr.. Alex. Eudy and bride, (Nellie
Adams returned Monday after an ex-
tended wedding tour through the east
ern states. The young couple visited
many of our most important cities,
spending several days in St. Louis, TAX
ing in the Worlds Fair. They were
welcomed on their return by the small
boys with tin horns, and later in the
evening by many of their intimate
friends. On Wednesday evening about
sixty of the young men and ladies gave
them a regular old fashioned charivari.
Mr.. Eudy was prepared for them and
many of the boys speak in enthusiastic
praise of their reception. The happy
couple will begin housekeeping at once.

NOTES FROM
GOLD MINES

MADRoNE-The mill will start about
the 10th of the month. Everything
looks favorable for long profitable
run.
GLENN - The Glenn is still shut
down owing to a lack of water. The
Robinson brothers lease expired on
the first of the month. The mill will
not be started again before fall.
MARs1No GRAVEL CLAIM - This
claim is developing beyond expecta-
tions. The gravel is carrying more
and heavier gold. What is needed is a
small mill with which to crush the gold
bearing lava and the output would
doubtless be much greater.
DEFENDER-W While the Defender is
still a paying proposition Supt. Joyce
concluded to sink and develop the
property at lower level. He has gone
down 20 feet during the last two weeks
which he considers good work owing
to the granite formation. He will
probably sink 100 feet before running
any crosscuts. The shaft will then be
400 feet deep. Mr.. Joyce is very san
guine of success.
SOUTH EUREKA.-Since our last
issue we have learned from one high in
authority, in the management of the
mine, that 40 men are now EMPLOYED
doing repair and development work,
that the mill has undergone repairs
and will be running again before the
end of the present week, that
arrangements have been made for the
erection of new mill at an early date
and that since the election of the new
Board of Directors in March the stock
has increased 1907 in value.

Jackson VS.. Lodi.

On Sunday last two games of base
ball were played between Burgin s
Jackson team aud picked nine from
Lodi. Both games resulted in victory
for the Jackson nine. The first game
was close one, every run made being
well earned by the player making it.
But four errors were made during the
game, and it was baseball all the way
through. Grillo pitched good game,
and Cassela proved a happy surprise
for all his associates. Score 10 to in
favor of Jackson.
The afternoon game BODIED ill for the
visiting team from the start The
home nine made runs the first inning
and were never headed. The Lodi
boys are jolly good fellows and we hope
to see them come again. The score
for the last game stood 16 to 8 in favor
of Jackson.

New Map of Amador County.

A new map of Amador county is in
process of construction and is about
half completed, and if very reason
able proposition, which will be pre-
sented to the supervisors at their next
meeting, be favorably considered, the
new map will be on the market in less
than go days. The work is being done
by D. G. Carlton, an expert map maker,
who has been in the employ of the
Rand McNalliys of Chicago for years,
and has lately made maps of Butte,
Sutter, Yuba and San Joaquin counties,
and has a map to make of Santa Cruz
county. He also made small map of
Lodi, and there became acquainted
with Geo. w. LeMoin, the well. known
hotel man of that place, and was in
duced by him to look over the ground
in Amador. as Mr.. LeMoin believed
that as it had been some years since the
last county map was made a good up
to-date map of the county would be ap-
preciated by the public, and it is
wholly upon his representations to Mr..
Carlton that Amador county is very
likely to have map that will fill all
requirements however exacting. The
new map will be about Axe feet in size,
and scale II inches to the mile. New
features will be the bounding of all
schoo. districts and naming them.
Complete maps of jackson. lone, SUIT
ter, Amador, and Plymouth to occupy
the vacant space on the map north and
south of the county. These maps will
be drawn to scale and show all streets,
blocks, lots, distances, etc., also all
telephone, telegraph, and power lines
Although Mr.. LeMoin resides in Lodi
he always speaks of Amador as home,
and that he takes a great interest in
the welfare of the county is shown by
the fact that he came up to Jackson
with Mr.. Carlton on Tuesday last and
personally used his best endeavors to
thoroughly introduce him, as far as his
limited time would allow, to the lead
ing people of Jackson and Sutter, and
to acquaint them understandingly with
details concerning the new map. Mr..
Carlton is stopping at the National,
and will be pleased to meet any one
who is Interested in the work, and glad
to have any data furnished that will
assist in producing acomplete, accurate,
and comprehensive map of Amador
county. D.

Selling Trout.

Sage Hartwick, of Amador, was ar
rested Monday evening by Constab BILE
Tuttle upon warrant sworn to by
Game Warden Arditto for selling fish
unlawfully. Mr.. Hartwick and son
went to the lakes last week and sue
ceeded in catching about so dozen fish.
On Sunday he drove into Sutter Greek
with his catch and some one notified
the warden. Arditto went to Sutter
at once to secure evidence. We under
stand that he secured dozen fish from
party that claimed to have bought
them from Hartwick. On the other
hand we hear that Hartwick gave some
of his friends fish, and they realizing
that he had been to considerable ex.
pense donated so cents each for ex
penses. The case will come before
Judge Rose Saturday.

VOLCANO ITEMS.

William Crosby and Miss Katie Bund
were successful applicants in the recent
grammar grade examination.
The 50th anniversary of Odd Fellow
ship was appropriately celebrated on
the evening of the 22d of June by a
program. banquet and dance. 1t had
been the intention of the lodge to give
picnic on that day. but owing to the
prevalence of smallpox it was given up.
At the last moment the banquet and
dance were decided upon. A most en-
joyable evening was spent, and will
long be remembered by those present.
Supervisor Grillo accompanied the
Jackson fishing party to the lakes, and
in his enthusiasm over the fish pro-
lection question" after catching over
100 dozen, he forgot to stake his horses
securely and they took their departure
for pastures more green. Left in a
mountainous country where the hoot
OF the owl is something awful, he sent
for his brother Frank to come to his
rescue at once. Frank started Satur-
day evening with fresh team, and
landed his lonely brother safe into the
arms of loving friends and relatives late
the next evening.
Grillo, Bradshaw, Santirfo and Tam,
with VIM. Marsino as supporter, left
about 5 o'clock a. m. Sunday for jack
son, to play with the Burgin nine
against the Lodi team. They returned
late in the evening, with all kinds OF
scalps hanging to their belts.

Beet Sugar Factory.

The town of Colusa, in the Sacra-
mento valley, is to have a beet sugar
factory that will cost s4OO, 900. Local
capitalists have subscribed for e-half
the stock, and the outside promoters,
under the lead of Mr.. Dyer, have
pledged the other half Mr.. Dyer
visited numerous localities and con-
sidered this the most favorable one in
the valley. 1t is enterprises of this
character that help to place any city
or town on solid foundation. Every
permanent village must have more than
one industry to depend upon, and the
time to open up a new enterprise is
when the place is in a hourishing con-
dition.

Surprise Party.

On Monday evening a number of
ladies, members of the Degree of Honor,
gave Mr.. and Mrs. Melvin Ford a real
surprise. Mrs. Ford was home alone
when the party arrived, and could not
imagine at first what it all meant. She
sent for Mr.. Ford and a most enjoy
able evening was spent. The ladies
presented Mrs. Ford with a handsome
lemonade set and beautiful cake plate.
After wishing the young couple many
years of happiness and prosperity the
visiting ladies departed for their re-
spective homes.

Fire at sutter.

A fire started in the dry grass in
Werner's field last week, and for time
threatened to consume the large fields
of standing barley belonging to Geo.
Waeschter. A large force of men
gathered at the scene, and by heroic
fighting succeeded in keeping the fire
under control until nightfall, when the
dampness assisted in putting it out.
The origin of the fire is not known. 1t
was first noticed creeping from ravine
at the foot of the hill. Perhaps the
small boy with the cigarette could
throw some light upon the subject.
