Steve Ferrari was on the ground in
few moments, aud found him with
his face in the water, There was not
depth of water sufficient to cover his
head. He was quickly pulled from
the water, and lite was not yet eX-
tinct. Every effort was made to re-
store him, but without avail. He
gave gasp or two after being res
cUed, and then. expired. 1t is sup
posed that he stopped over the spring
to drink direct from the stream. He
lost his balance, and pitched over
sufficiently to get his face in the
water, and was unable to recover
himself. and so was drowned, whether
overcome with fit or sinking spell

The Ledger office has received new
press a two revolution Campbell.
1t is guaranteed to print three times
as fast as any press heretofore used
in the county. 1t is also larger than
the one heretofore used, which has
been in the Ledger Office for the past
twenty five years. 1t will consequently
take larger sheet, in other words,
print larger paper than was possible
Oh the old press. Not that the Ledger
will be enlarged right away, but we
are prepared for all emergencies.
The press has not been put together
yet, as it requires an expert in such
machinery to put 1t in running order.
For this work a maohinlst from the
foundry in San Francisco Is expected
up tonight, who will at once place it
in running order, so that the next
issue of the Ledger will be printed on
the improved machine. We have also
received folding machine, the only
one ever brought to this county. We
hope to do away with the tedious pro-
cess of folding the Ledger by hand
hereafter. With this additional ma
chinery the Ledger will be by far the
best equipped printing Office on the
mother lode, both from newspaper
and job printing standpoint. The
