ANOTHER RUNAWAY CAPTURED.

Officers from Calaveras county were
over here Wednesday hunting for a
Jail breaker named Andrew Sabini.
He was in San Andreas Jail awaiting
trial for safe cracking. He is a mere
boy, II years old, but no novice IN
taking advantage of an opportunity
He was a sort of trusty around the
court house, and while permitted to
build fire in one of the offices of
the court house, made his escape. He
is known to have travelled toward
Amador, and was traced to somewhere
around in the vicinity of Electra.
1t seems deputy sheriff Keiser of
Calaveras county followed the fugitive
to Mokelumne Hill, at which place
he fred three pistol shots at him, not
to hurt but to scare him. He con-
tinued on his flight, and went to
Vogt's place near Electra, the officer
tracking him all the way. At Jackson
he lost track of him. The runaway
went to lone, and logged himself out
in new suit, with money he had
stolen before leaving San Andreas.
Constable Kelly got on his track, and
after shooting at him four times near
Dry creek two miles out of lone he
finally captured his man. Deputy
Keiser brought him to Jackson last
night and took him back to his old
quarters IN Jail in our neighboring
county this morning.

A SILVER CACHE FOUND.
A Goat Rancher Discovers $500 in Sill
YER Buried Near Volcano.

SeIafino Scapucino, who lives at
Upper Rancheria, stumbled across a
piece of luck about two weeks ago,
treasury. He owns the old John Sui
livan ranch, near Volcano, but he
does not live there. He was out over
this place looking after his goats,
which roam over it for pasture. A
portion of the ranch had been swept
over by fire year or two ago. To.
ward the top IF a hill he came across
manzanita bush, at the roots of
which he noticed something white
and shining. He proceeded to ex-
anime the spot, and on the surface
found quantity of melted silver,
and below. a large quantity of silver
coin, all in half-dollar pieces, all of
it considerably rusted by exposure
to the elements. 1t is believed that
the coins we're deposited in a sack,
but the fire had destroyed the sack,
letting the silver out of the bag. 1t
had been there evidently for many
years. From the quantity of melted
and unmelted coin-and most of it
is unmelted-it is estimated that the
sack contained at least $500. 1t is
supposed that the money was placed
in its hiding by parties concerned in
one of the many hold-ups of the Vol
cano stage to Jackson, in the days
when Wells Fargo express extended
to that section. THAT the robbers
making the cache, failed to locate
the spot afterwards, and hence it was
left for the accidental find narrated
above. Scapucino, the lucky finder,
is brother in law of V. Solari, who
lives,on the Hamilton track, who was
up il Volcano recently, and saw some
of the resurrected money.

RAILROAD PROGRESS.

The railroad is moving along apace.
Track is laid as tar as the east side
of the branch road to Sutter Creek,
which is within two miles of Mar
tells. The. grading is about all
completed to Martell's, except per-
haps little filling and trestle work
1t is thought that in another week,
or at least by the end of the month,
the track will be down as far as the
depot on the Oneida grounds.
1t is generally reported that the
company intends to build into Jack
son at once. The surveys and maps
of the route are completed. All
the company asks of the citizens of
jackson, is to be furnished with the
right of way into town from jackson
Gate. This is not an unreasonable
request, and ought to be complied
with without a murmur. 1t should
not cost much for the right IF way.
The property holders along the route
will want compensation, at least
those of them who do not expect to
reap substantial benefit from the
road. If the compensation asked is
unreasonably high, the railroad COM
pany will take charge of such cases.
So that under these conditions, Jack
son people should get together and
take some action to secure the right
of way, as far as possible, and pre-
sent the same to the company.
The map of the route was open for
inspection in Wells Fargo's office
yesterday morning. A few citizens
got together and appointed a COM
mittee to wait upon the property
holders along the route, to arrange
if possible for the right OF way. The
committee is comprised of three per-
sons, F. Eudey, B. f. Taylor and
Chris Marelia. They interviewed the
property holders yesterday afternoon.
The portion of the route interceeded
for is from Ghilleri's saloon beyond
Jackson Gate to Ginocchio's lot, the
old Shlpman place. Those holding
land along the route are as follows:
N. Pierano, M. Ratio, Chichizola
Estate Company, j. B. Palma, j.
Bernero, Mrs. Boitano, S. W. Bright,
j. Forshey and Messrs. Cojovich, Bar
ton, Meehan, Schrader and Ginocchio.
The committee waited upon the
property holders concerned, and
found such decided objections to the
line of the route, that they could do
nothing with procuring a right of
way along the proposed survey. The
parties were without exception favor
able to the road, and willing to sub
nit the compensation question to
disinterested parties, and abide by
the decision, if the survey was chang
ed to a hundred feet or so back, but
as the matter now stood they would
not stand for it. The committee rea-
lized the reasonable views of the
property holders, inasmuch as it
would render their dwellings value
less for residence purposes. In all
probability the survey will be chang
ed to suit their views, and in that
event no serious difficulty will be en-
countered in securing the right of
way.

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

The thunder storm Tuesday even
ing Was unusually heavy along the
Middle fork of Jackson, in the vicin-
ity of Moltino's, five miles east of
town. The lightning played havoc
with the telephone poles along the
road side. Four poles were shivered
to splinters. The lightning was seen
to strike and run along the wires,
destroying four poles utterly. split
ting them into matchwood A large
tree near MolHno's residence was
struck, and the bark peeled off as
neatly as though done by the handi-
work of man. Mrs. Mol6no and boy
were in the garden at the time, about
dusk, and witnessed the destructive
force of the lightning. They and all
who saw the phenomena we're greatly
scared. Even the horses and cattle
realized the peril, and fled for shelter
to the barn. The telephone line men
we're out Wednesday repairing the
damage.

FUNERAL.

The funeral of the late John G..
Allen was held from the L. O. 0. F.
hall in West Point, Calaveras county,
Monday afternoon. By request of
the deceased, the Rev. Chas. Swithen
bank of Valley Spring conducted the

ed in stockraising with Zack Kirk
wood for some time in Amador
county. after which he was employ
ed on the Amador canal, but for
fourteen years be has been engaged
in business in West Point. Such we're
the nature of his suferings that he
longed for death as a relief. He

March 30; raised April 18th of the
same year.

IS AND Is NOT A HOLIDAY.

The law known as the Saturday
half holiday act' has become a
source of considerable discussion
among those who have no interest in
it and, as usual, the corner lawyers
know it all. The Jamestown Magnet
asserts that sit does not become oper-
ative until the board of supervisors
adopts an ordinance to that effect, ="
1t is not strange that this paper has
made an error. That the public may
learn what the act is we quote it:
Every Saturday from twelve o'clock
noon until twelve o'clock midnight is
holiday as regards the transaction
of business in the public offices in
this state, and also in political divis-
ions thereof where laws, ordinances
or charters provide that public offices
may be closed on holidays; provided,
this shall not be construed to prevent
or invalidate the issuance, filing, SER
vice, execution or recording of any
legal process or written instrument
whatever on such Saturday after
moons.
Under the statue there is no COM
mand that any officer shall obey it
unless he elects so to do. Tuolumne's
officials will attend to their duties
and be at hand to accommodate the
people.

MINING NEWS.

Bunker Hill 1.-The mill vas brought
to temporary standstill early this
week. There is much milling rock,
but some work must be done ere it
can be available. Superintendent
Harrington finds that considerable de-
velopment work must be done to en-
sure steady supply of ore for the
mill
Spagnoli-F jackson and Jerry
Podesta, who have been prospecting
on this property for several weeks,
believe they have struck pretty good
thing. They have uncovered ledge
four feet wide, that prospects, we'll.
They are arranging to have crush
ing of the rock made at the Climax
mill.
Central Eureka - For April this
company has declared a dividend of
7c per snare, amounting to S28, ZOO.
Keystone-This mine is putting in
a quantity of new machinery. A new
air compressor, of Is machine capaci-
ty. is being put in place. This will
make three cOmpressors. One will be
kept as reserve power. iD case of
accident to either of the others. The
mine is running along smoothly, with
60 stamps and two roller mills in
operation, equal to a total of 80
stamps.
Rhetta-The last payment on the
purchase price of the Bay State, now
a part of the Rhetta Consolidated
Mining Company, WAS made last
Tuesday. The company is now free
from debt, and owns clear title to
the mining grounds included in the
Bay State, the Kretcher, and Rhetta
mines. The ten stamp mill is kept
running steadily. At the Bay State
the shaft is down 1890 feet. At the
thousand foot level large ore body
averaging about 6 feet in width is
opened up, the length of the entire
shoot is about 600 feet. The ore that
is being sent to the mill at present
comes from the Rhetta claim about
half mile from the shaft and mill.
Here tunnel has been driven into
the hill 130 feet, striking very good
ore shoot, the extent of which is not
yet determined The object of this
work is to prospect this ore body,
with the view of ascertaining the
most desirable point at which to sink
a new shaft for the development of
this portion of the property, which
bids fair to prove the most valuable
of the company's ground. From %
to 80 men are employed about mines
and mill.
