The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages and
that is Catarrah. Halls Catarrah Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrah be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment Halls Catar-
rah Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surface of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitutional and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in it's
curative powers, that they offer one
Hundred Dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Russia is determined to win a vic
tory before quitting. She will listen
to no peace overtures until she has
whipped the Japs in one stand-up
fight. And if she were lucky enough
to win one battle she would want to
gain another and another, until she
had crushed her valiant foe. The
prospect is slim for a reversal of the
story of misfortune and disaster in
the least degree. She has had such
an unchecked career of conquest for
centuries that it is hard to reconcile
herself to the thought that her pol
icy of expansion must be abandoned.
Like the inveterate gambler, who
stays with the game until his ability
to do so is exhausted, so Russia
hangs on to her dream of world con-
quest, until her military arm is para
lyzed by defeat abroad and revolu-
tion at home. Japan is doing noble
service for the worlds peace by
soundlY thrashing this over grown
bear, and throwing back her frontier
from Manchuria and the whole Pacific
coast.

not appear to be particular as to place.
This time he is out for the clerkship of

Won Back" Tomorrow Night in Ply
mouth.

The drama, "Won Back, " to be rem
dered in Shields hall, Plymouth, to-
morrow night, will doubtless be one of
the best entertainments ever given by
local talent in Amador county. The
play is an interesting one, and the per-
formers are men and women who have
had much experience upon the stage.
The ladies of the Catholic church,
under whose auspices the play is given,
have spared neither time, expense or
pains to satisfy their patrons. The en-
tertainment will be concluded with a
grand ball and supper. We bespeak
Tor the management and performers a
liberal patronage, so as TO encourage
them to other and greater efforts in
the future.

VOLCANO ITEMS.

Peace, happiness and contentment
reign supreme in our quiet little town.
No grumblers, no knockers, but with
everyone living and willing to let others
live we move quietly on, waiting for
the noise and hustle that is sure to be
ours when the railroad comes, and
when some of our valuable quartz leads
are opened UP in proper shape and
made to yield up their hidden treasures.
Grlllo Bros. have added large stock
OF goods to those recently purchased
from the Clute estate, and now have
one OF the neatest and best equipped
stores to be found in any mountain
town. 1t requires two clerks and de-
livery wagon working early and late to
supply the demands for goods that are
continually pouring in upon them.
Casslnelll Bros. report business better
Tor this time OF the year than for many
years past. They are the owners OF
several quartz claims, and expend quite
sum each year doing assessment
work. Several of their claims are
showing up we'll.
L. j. Quinn, our blacksmith, says he
is the busiest man in Amador county.
He has made more wagons and carts
during the last Is months than any
other one man could make in that time,
and cannot keep one on hand long
enough to exhibit his workmanship.
All agree that Z. j. is a wonderful
worker, and the grocery men, butchers
and baker are willing to wager their
all that he has the biggest appetite
that can be found anywhere in the state.
Jack Giannini, the town shaver,
closed his doors Sunday at 80 a. m.,
and tried to form com animation with
his chair, mug and razors not to do
any work on the Sabbath day after
that hour. His razors had such keen
edge for business, however, that Jack
was overruled, and continued to lather
and shave until his pockets contained
30c for his days work.
This ought to be great summer re-
sort. The nearby natural scenery is
wonderful, and if properly advertised
the st. George ought to be filed with
tourists from the first of May until the
last of November.
Our school is well attended. Prof.
Davis finds no difficulty in managing
his 10 pupils and giving them proper
instructions in the nine grades, as re-
quired by the course of study.
Sam G. Trayner, of San Francisco,
was here last week, interviewing some
OF our prominent mine owners.
Mrs. Clute and daughter Ella expect
to leave for San Francisco in the early
spring, where they will reside per.
manently.
The post office has been removed
from Grillo Bros. store to the tele.
phone office. Miss Mary Delucchi
makes competent and obliging post.
mistress.
Much interesting mining news might
be gathered here at present if one could
take the time to visit the various claims
now in operation, but thus far we have
been unable to do so. and will reserve
this class of news for some future time

Cases Dismissed.

Fred Kerr, Geo. Wrigglesworth and
Mr.. Bryant, who were arrested in
Amador last week for disturbing the
peace and quiet of that thrifty little
village, had their hearing before JUS
tice Rose of Sutter Creek Saturday and
were discharged, his honor finding that
the trouble originated from another
source. G. S. Hicks, who was arrested
at the same time on a similar charge,
was held for trial. He demanded an
immediate trial by jury, which was
granted and proceeded with at once.
After listening to all the evidence for
and against, the jury failed to agree
and were discharged. We presume
that the unpleasantness will end here,
and hope that the people of our neigh
boring town will be able to live in peace
and quietness the remainder of their
days.

Fined $50 For Refusing to Assist an
Officer.

Ignorance of the law sometimes gets
good men into trouble. This was the
case with James Bodinar of Amador
City last week, when deputy sheriff D.
S. Gray asked him to assist in placing
the handouts upon the wrists of a man
under arrest. No one will deny the
fact that Mr.. Bodinar is peaceable,
law-abiding citizen, and would in no
wise violate the laws of his country if
he properly understood them. It is
the duty of every able bodied male citi-
zen to assist peace officer in the per-
formance of his duty if called upon to
do so. This Bodinar fatty refused to
do, and deputy Gray took advantage
of the occasion to give him an import
ant and rather expensive lesson on the
duty of American citizenship. A war
rant was secured for his arrest and he
was taken before justice Rose, where
he plead guilty and was fined $50, which
he promptly paid, feeling that a know
ledge of the law sometimes comes high,
but it is worth the knowing at any
price.

Trick With Cards.

Here is a card trick that any bright
bov can perform, and little practice
will make him so skilful that no one
can detect it. Hold out the pack face
downward and ask some one to draw
out four cards. Then ask him to look
at then and to think of one of the four.
OF course he must not tell you what
card he thought OF.
When he hands the four cards back
to you you must put two of them at
the top. but you must do -his SO Skill
fully that it will not be noticed. Here
is where your practice will be needed.
Now, in handling tho pack, with
draw four cards of any sort, no matter
what they may be, and place them I'M
der the two cards that you have put at
the bottom of the pack. Then, taking
six cards from the bottom, spread
them out on the table and ask the per-
son if the card he thought of is among
them.
If he says no, you are sure that 1t Is
one of the two that you put on top
You then pass those two cards to the
bottom, and, withdrawing one or
them, you lay it on the table, asking
him II that is his card.
