For the District Judgeship.

It. is freely reported that Superior
Judge r. G. Rust of this county is a
candidate for the appointment of one
of the judgeships of the district court
of appeals of the district embracing
the northern section of California. The
constitutional amendment esta blishing
three district appellate courts, TO re-
lieve the press of business of the present
supreme court, was adopted at the re-
cent election, the adoption abolishing
the five supreme court commissioners.
Each district court will have three
judges, who must not all be of the same
political complexion for the appointive
or first term. The governor has the
appointing power, and being a repub-
lican will no doubt appoint two repub-
licans and one democrat for each court.
1t is probable. although not obligatory,
that the five commissioners who have
been voted out OF office will be appoint
ed, leaving four other appointments on
district which includes Amador county,
there is only one commissioner, N. P.
Chapman, of Red Bluff. He Is a re-
publican. So that the governor will
have two appointments in this district
outside of the commissioners, one re-
publican and one democrat. Judge
Rust has been out of the county for
several days, and it is understood his
chances of receiving the honor are con-
sidered good. We are informed that a
delegation of democratic politicians will
leave to-day to interview Governor
Pardee in this behalf. The governor
is flooded with applications for these
fat berths, which carry salary of
$4,000 per year each-nearly double the
salary of superior judge.

Encampment of !. O. Q. F,

At meeting of Occidental Encamp-
ment No. AZ, L. o. o. F., held in Sacra-
mento on Saturday evening, fifty-six
candidates were initiated into this high
degree of Odd Fellowship. The En-
campment bears similar relation to
the general order of Odd Fellows that
the Knights Templar degree does to
Masonry. On this occasion there were
a large number of mem bers present
from Central and Northern California.
Amador Encampment No. II, of SUIT
ter Creek, contributed the following
delegation from Amador county: Jack
son-John Stribley, w. E. Kent, j..
Petty, w. J. Nettle, J. Cofer, M.
Ladar, G. Wishard, H. Griffin. Sutter
Creek-C. E. Richards, K. Rourke, 7.
Norden, V. Norton, W. Perkins, w.
Parsons, II. Lehman, F. p, c..
Smith, j. King. A. Jewel was one of
the candidates for membership. The
event was signalized by a feast and
other social features of an interesting
character. All who attended from
this section are unanimous in voting it
one of the most entertaining functions
they have over attended.

Teamsters' Strike.

Last Sunday morning the teamsters
employed in hauling gravel from near
Tabeaud reservoir to Petty reservoir
of the Standard Electric Company,
struck in body. About 20 teams were
concerned, and all of them quit work
and struck out for their various homes.
They had been working for several
weeks, under an arrangement made di-
rectly with the Electric Co. They
were being paid, we understand, about
S5 per day per team, the company
furnishing feed for animals and board
and lodging for the men. On this basis
the haulers were satisfied. 1t appears
that the company wanted to change
this arrangement, paying them Sc per
day, the teamsters to find everything.
This was unsatisfactory, and the teams
pulled off the job. The gravel is to be
used in cementing work on the pipe
line, but mainly in making a water
tight coating for the reservoir. An i'm
mense quantity of gravel and cement
will be required for this work
On Monday some l5 teams went to
work on the revised schedule of Sc. 80
per day for four-horse teams and driver
the men to furnish themselves and
animals. The Petty reservoir which
is to supply the new pipe line, tapping
the increased head of 100 feet, is to be
cemented throughout. The formation
was found so porous and full of escape
holes that 1t would not hold water.
The water escaped almost as fast as the
ditch could supply it. The remedy de-
vised for this leakage is to line it with
thick bed of cement. This is a big
undertaking in itself, necessitatiug
many thousands of loads of gravel

MINING NEWS

KENNEDY.-At the Kennedy mine
Al. Granger and w. S. Weymouth,
both of Drytown, have secured the
right to clean up the site of the old
Kennedy mill. They started upon
their work yesterday.
FREMONT Sinking is in progress in
the Fremont shaft, the men having
been withdrawn from the Cover shaft
for this purpose. Arthur Goodall, the
Superintendent, has been in San Fran
cisco the past week, on business con-
corning the property.
MINE BONDED. J. Cranmer has
secured a bond or option on the
Emmons mine at Pine Grove. The
option to purchase runs for two years,
the price being $4,000 Mr.. Cranmer
has purchaser in view, and expects to
have the property working in short
time.
Oliver Clark some months ago moved
his family to Oakland, purchasing a
new outfit of household goods, leaving
his former home in South Jackson with
the furniture therein. On looking into
the state of affairs the other day, it
was found that the furniture had dis
appeared everything worth packing
away had vanished.
ZEILA.-Good progress is being made
in sinking. The shaft is going down at
the rate of over 10 feet per week.
Beside sinking, drift is being run at
the 400 level, northerly toward the
ledge The pit for the foundation of
the new hoist is ready for its cement;
the outer walls of cement have been
completed The work of filling the
pit with concrete has not been started
yet.
CLIMAX. This mine, about two
miles from Pine Grove, continues to
run steadily, and the two stamp mill is
kept going, the monthly output prov
ing so satisfactory that arrangements
are being made to operate on more
extensive scale. The hoist of the Baliol
mine has been erected on this mine,
and is now in running order. They
have started sinking below the tunnel
level, and intend to go l50 feet. In all
they have run 1000 feet of tunnel, open
ing up ore bodies which have more
than paid working expenses. The
management is now considering the
erection of a ten stamp mill.
SAND PILE MINE.-Operation at
the Sand Pile mine, in working the
tailings deposits at Fricot City by the
cyanide process, were brought to
temporary standstill last Friday. 1t
seems that auriferous sands on one side
of the plant have been worked out, so
suspension was necessary to enable
the proper appliances to be laid to work
the large deposits on the other side.
A track must be laid down, and other
arrangements perfected. This work
will take some weeks, and it may be
that cyandizing will not be resumed
until.next spring. From all accounts
the enterprise has been fairly success
full from financial standpoint. There
is vast extent of tailings still to be
treated. And while those who have put
their money in this enterprise may not
be reimbursed at present, the work
ahead, Judging from the result of past
operations, will fully recompense them
for the time and money expended in
this undertaking. 1t is the only in
stance in the county of the successful
application of the cyanide process.

Died in the Hospital.

A stranger arrived by railroad in
lone the latter part of last week, and
making his way to one of the construc-
tion camps of the lone and Jackson
railroad applied for work. He was not
we'll when he reached there, but there
was no indications that the man had
been indulging in liquor. He went to
bed soon after he got to camp, without
giving his name, or anything to show
where he came from. On his awaken
ing he became dilerious, and exceed
ingly violent. He was brought to the
hospital Sunday afternoon, strapped
and bound hand and feet to prevent
mischief. He foamed at the mouth,
and ground his teeth in the most vio-
lent manner. He died about 2 O'Clock
Monday morning. There was nothing
found about him except small mem
orandum book, on one leaf of which
was written ''T. F. Taylor, Baden, Cal. -
Whether this is his name is not known,
althougn inquiries are being made to
settle this point. There was also a
small purse found in. his pocket, in
which were couple of nickels, brass
watch chain, key, apparently of a
trunk. and a baggage check. The
latter will probably lead to the mans

particulars, before having the remains
