Dr. Staples writes from Amador City
that the credit for the successful opera
tion for appendicitis performed upon
w. H. Blakely Jan. Z should have
been given jointly to Drs. Tiffany and
Staples instead of to the latter alone as
was done in last weeks Ledger.

Don't miss it.
For the past week Dominick Boro,
who is employed at the Valparaiso
mine, south of town, has been laid up
with blood poisoning in his right arm.
A slight injury received on the hand
was the cause of the trouble, but he is
getting along nicely under treatment
of one of the local physicians.
Within the last week or so, w. F.
Detert, the wealthy mining man and
stock raiser of Amador county, has
purchased over 1900 acres of land in
Cosumnes township, near the boundary
line of this county and Amador. The
tract comprises the Tyler place, the
two Lawrance places, and those known
as the Gatten, Guinand and Bruner
ranches. Detert brings about 800 head
of cattle into that part of the county
for pasturage every summer. and seems
to buy the land for this purpose, as he
does not keep up any improvements.
The land averaged about 81 per acre,
it is said.-El Dorado Republican.
The biggest values ever offered to
the people of Amador county can be
had at the New White House. We
are for business. Buy and sell for cash.
We understand there is movement
on foot to organize an orchestra in
Jackson composed of home talent. 1t
will be composed of five pieces, includ-
ing 1st violin, clarionet, cornet, piano
and double bass. Master Monroe We'll
has been chosen as the violinist, and,
we are told, is making great progress.
The orchestra is now practicing several
nights weekly, and expects soon to
make the formal announcement to the
public of it's desire to compete for SER
vice at balls and other entertainments.
Reverend Father Sebastian Dabo-
vich, of the Orthodox Greek church,
San Francisco, is here on another of
cants OF the church here. He arrived
in Jackson Monday evening, and it was
his intention upon arrival to remain
ten days, visiting 10 this and the other
towns in the county. He regrets very
much that the following here will not
warrant the permanent location of
priest, but hopes. and believes it can
be done, that the conditions may soon
justify such move.

On Sunday, the 18th instant, it was
reported to the sheriff's Office that sew
eral miners working at the South
Eureka mine had been robbed, and
suspicion was directed towards an
Austrian, Noack Vocovich by name.
1t is said that while the miners were at
work Vocovich visited the changing
house, which contained their clothing,
rihed the clothing, secured the keys to
their trunks, and proceeded to the
boarding house of Steve Dragomano-
vich, where he found access to their
rooms and took everything of value
from the trunks. After investigation
Mr.. Jackson located his man at Jack
son Gate, and soon he was in the
clutches of the law.
On Saturday evening, the 10Th inst,
a delightful party was given at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Barsi, Martell's
station. The affair was rendered by
their many friends to Mr.. and Mrs.
John Martell as a homecoming re-
ception, upon their return to Martell's
from Amador City. A large crowd
gathered to show their appreciation for
the guests of honor, and the evening
was pleasantly spent in dancing, card
playing and other am usements, in
which all joined heartily. At II O'Clock
spread of refreshments was served,
after which amusements were again
the order, and were continued till tired
out, when the participants bade adieu
to host and hostess, with thank full
hearts for the evenings pleasure. The
music for the dance was furnished by
Messrs. Gobish and Peters of jackson.

The first snow of the winter fell in
Jackson during Monday night. Tues
day morning the white mantle covered
the ground to the depth of about an
inch. AS usual the small boy had a
glorious time pelting everyone that
ventured on the street with the soft
missiles. The feecy garment soon wore
out; by noon the snowballing was at
an end for lack of material, and by
night almost every vestige of the snow
storm had disappeared. In the high
sierras the fall must have been very
heavy. There is really no ground for
