some Misunderstanding in consequence
prevented. We hope to do better next
time.

MINING NEWS.

Fremont. AT the Fremont mine an
important development has been
made within the last few days. The
old Cover is included in the Fremont
company's properties. 1t will be re-
membered that many years ago some
of the richest rock ever seen in Anna
dor county was taken from the Cover.
The lead carrying this ore was about
two feet wide, and persisted to be-
beyond the 1000foot level. The pres
ent company on Ieopenipg the mine,
after long period of idleness, failed
to locate this lead. About a week
ago, a miner named Foppiano, who
formerly worked on this rich streak,
told them of its whereabouts. Fol
lowing his directions, the rich vein
has been uncovered at the 1900 level.
An upraise is about to be made from
the 1900 level to strike 1t also. The
ore is so plentifully sprinkled with
free gold that it is sent up in sacks.
None is sent to the mill with ordin-
ary rock. This find is expected to
materially enhance the monthly out
put. The property has been paying
over expenses right along, so that
this find will doubtless enable the
company to commence to pay divi-
dends in the near fnture.
Jose GuIch. E. Stewart has
resigned as superintendent of this
property, situated at Butte City. j.
B. Harris, of Stockton has been ap-
pointed in his stead. Frank Eubanks
of Stockton is foreman, and on the
ground, working a small ferce of
men. They intend to sink a shaft
and run tunnel.
McCann.-W. E. Stewart has taken
the management of this quartz claim
on the Mokelumne river near Butte
City A new company under the
name of the McCann Mining Com
pany has been formed to operate it.
The interested parties are mostly
in Stockton. The incorporation
papers are being prepared, and work
will commence shortly.

A DANGEROUS TRAP.
The County Jail. Accommodations and Ar
rangements Constitute Serious Menace
to Officers.

The discovery of plot among those
confined in the county Jail recently has
brought to light the totally inadequate
arrangements of that institution for
the proper protection of the officials
who are charged with its management.
AS matters have stood for years, it is
very easy for the prisoners to conspire
to attack the attendants in an effort to
escape. A few weeks ago plot of this
character was actually unearthed. But
for the timely discovery of the scheme,
serious results would assuredly have
followed. The frustrated plans includ-
ed murderous assault upon the sheriff
and assistants. in the hope, it is as
sumed, OF securing the keys and there
by gain their liberty. We have been
informed that there is scarcely another
Jail in the state in which prisoners
charged with serious crimes are con-
fined, which so sadly lacks the means
OF safeguarding the lives of attendants.
Other jails are provided with steel cells.
which are all locked with one move
ment from the outside of the jail proper.
AT locking up time, it is only necessary
to order the prisoners into their re-
spective cells from the ante room, and
with one turn lock them all up. The
Jaller does not have to come in contact
with the prisoners while at liberty in
the corridors for exercise, which is the
custom in all jails. In Jackson it is
different. The jailer has to enter the
jail proper, and lock the prisoners in
the cells one at a time. Any one can
understand the serious risk of such an
undertaking where desperate char
acters are concerned.
A case has Just been brought to
notice, showing the aptitude with
which the criminal classes will grasp
such opportunities. Paleti, the self
confessed highwayman who was con-
cerned in the robbery Of the italian of
$3.50 near the Kennedy mine, and 7. ].
Manhire, the child assailant, also SEN
fenced to state prison on a plea of
guilty, we're IN the plot, and may be
others. Information was conveyed to
the sheriff s Office that an attack and
outbreak was contemplated. Investi-
cation revealed the fact that number
of rocks had been dug out of the wall
OF the Jail and hid away, the dirt and
mortar being thrown into the cesspool.
The rocks were to be the offensive
weapons with which to overcome the
jailer at the opportune moment, Sheriff
Norman was away in San Diego when
the plot was revealed. The loose rocks
and concealed rubbish are the in
dubitable proofs of the scheme.
We have heard great deal about
reform OF the state prisons and re-
formatories, transforming them, &C.
cording to these visionaries, into pleas
ure grounds and reward institutions
for the evil doer. In Amador county
the most urgent prison reform is in the
direction of protection OF the officials
from needless risk in the way of plots
to kill and escape,

The Railroad.

A strong force of men is again at
work on the line of the lone and Eas-
tern Railroad. One who was over
the line last Wednesday estimated
that over 300 men were at ork at the
different points. Fhe second trestle
in front of the Mountain Spring
place was completed last Tuesday,
and track laying was at once resumed.
Wednesday morning the engine was
delivering construction material in
front of the Mountain Spring House.
There is now no heyay trestle work to
do to the temporary end of the line at
Martell's station, and rapid progress
should be made from now on. Grad
ing has been finished to the crossing
of the road at Cyclone station. In
eight days 1t is calculated that the
track laying will be completed to that
point. The moving of the headquart-
ers from near lone to the Oneida
grounds was commenced Wednesday
hOAA4A&' 1Su dCI0p lOI q uOpOO o1OO
and other purposes have been leased
from the Oneida Mining Company.
Two gangs of graders are at work be-
tween Martell's and Cyclone. The
company has evidently taken on a
new squirt, and is pressing work with
a vim. Every available horse and
man is being secured. When the
headquarters are established at the
Oneida camp, the business and tinan-
cial management Will be transferred
to that point. The hands will be
paid off there instead Of at lone,
This will mean heavy incl ease of
business for Jackson and SutteI Creek,
as the hands chiefly belonging to the
rowing and thriftless class, will make
for the nearest towns to spend their
surplus cash.

CATHOLIC CHURCH ENTERTAIN-
MENT.
A Very Successful Affair. Large House and
Interesting Programme.

The dramatic entertainment given
last Friday night in Loves hall for the
benefit of the Catholic church funds
went off very smoothly, encouraged by
packed house. The play was a four
act drama, entitled, "a Woman S
Honor" Each performer did his or
her level best, and much talent was
shown. Jas. Jay Wright IA hero of
the ten years war; acted his part we'll.
and we wish him success should he
make up his mind to follow that bust
ness. George Luse (as his brother) got
in his villanous work to perfection,
but we are glad to say in all, he is a
good fellow socially. Seph Dalporta (as
surgeon of the Madeline) did some fine
work. Ben Gilbert Tin love with Olive)
or somebody else, played his part well,
and deserves much praise. Alex Ross
"a Wall street broker) who died in the
first act, died nobly. Ee got himself
into heap of trouble, Ind no doubt
the best way to end it all was to die
There was no fault to find in him from
the audience, however. j. w. Cald-
we'll las Lester's private, secretary who
married Sally. one of 0lenn's daugh-
ters, was very good, and played, his
part we'll. Fl. G. Murray (as Glenn's
butler) kept the audience in continual
uproar throughout the four acts, and
makes a good minstrel performer.
Julia Thomas las Olive, and Glenu's
daughter) played well. She was in
nOcent all the time, when the real
assassin was caught in the act, and
everything ended all right for her.
Loretta Meehan (Olive's sister, could
not have acted better. Mary Freeman
(as wife of Pedro) fitted her part to
perfection, but seemed to be a little
cross occasionally, but this was only in
the acting. The dance given after the
drama was attended by many. In all,
the affair was a success financially and
socially.
Tho gross receipts amounted to
1891. so; the expenses footed up SS1 80,
leaving the net proceeds for the church
s31O.25. This is a highly satisfactory
outcome, and all who took part or had
anything to do with the affair are
greatly pleased at the result.

Editor Amador Ledger:-I have no.

the insane asylums were full to over
flowing, and that some of the female
inmates were obliged to sleep on the
floor. Also that the state prisons were
being crowded to nearly the same ex-

that if the liquor traffic was suppressed
it would nearly empty our jails and
