Leg Broken.

Leo, the six year old son of Mr. and
Mrs Scapuzzi of Jackson, met with
painful accident Wednesday even
ing. He was playing at home, and
had a barrel set under a tree. He
was sitting on the barrel when 1t
rolled from under him onto his leg.
When the boy was picked up, it was
found that the left leg was broken
between the ankle and knee. A
physician was called, who setsthe in
jured limb. Leo is getting along
nicely, but doesn't like the idea OF
not being able to have his usual free.

Blue Rock Shooting.

The shoot scheduled for last Sun
day in Jackson did not take place, a
number of our crack shots went to

skill, they carried away first honors.
rwentyone contestants were in line.
L. K. Norman scored the highest,
with Dan Bono of Drytown second
highest. They shot for pools. Next
Sunday there is to be big shooting
in Jackson. Our local boys are ad-
vertising this affair, and large crowd
is expected. 1t is open for all comers
in this county. A prize will be given

New Kennedy Boarding House

The new boarding house at the
Kennedy mine was opened for bust
ness on the first of May, by the pro-
prietor, s. Dalporta, who has been in
charge of the old establishment for
two or three years past. The new
house Is located about midway be-
tween the north and east shafts Be-
sides the boarding house proper,
there are two long buildings fitted up
for sleeping rooms. Each building is
calculated to accommodate fifty men.
The rooms are large, neatly furnished
with special attention to ventilation
and lighting features. In the board
ing house everything is arranged for
convenience, and according to up-to-
date requirements, from a large
French range to the smallest detail
Mr. Dalporta has spared no expense
in his desire to make his new quarters
the most elaborate esta bllshment of
the kind to be found in the noun
tains. At present there are about
forty boarders. AS soon as more
rooms are completed they will be
occupied. There is no truth in the
report current that all single men
working at the Kennedy would be
required to board at the company
boarding house. 1t is expected, when
everything is completed, that from &C
to 70 men will be Accommodated there,
of their own free choice, and without
any pressure whatever from any
quarter.

Bank Opened.

The Amador County Bank opened
its doors for business on Monday
morning, for the first time since the
San Francisco disaster. The legal
holidays are still in force, but this
does not prevent the banks from
doing business if they so desire As
there was no further necessity OF
handicapping the local business in
teIests by keeping closed, and hav-
ing made all arrangements with bank;
below in regard to the issuance OF
drafts, the jackson Institution threw
Its doors ajar for business. As
anticipated, there was not the least
indications of panic. There was nc
line of depositors in sight anxious to
withdraw their money. Indeed, it
was noised around that the bank was
sufficiently fortified by strong finan-
cial institutions below, that every
depositor could have got his money
in short order, if there had been any
tendency toward a movement in that
direction. But there was nothing OF
the sort. In fact the money deposited
far exceeded the amount withdrawn
This outcome shows the wisdom OF
the legal holidays. There is no
doubt, that in the first days of excite
ment following the disaster in San
Francisco, had the bank attempted
to do business as usual, there would
have been a rush of depositors for
their money. But the panicky feel
Ing has subsidized, and there is nc
effort to divert money from the
ordinary channels beyond the actual
requirements of current business.
The city banks are doing business
only in limited way. 1t is believed
the legal holidays will be continued
until the first of next month, by
which time it will be deemed per-
fectly safe to open the vaults. There
is no fear whatever of any failure OF
the commercial banks. There is no
telling when the saving banks will
get on their feet for regular business.

MINING NOTES.

Red Top Gravel Mine.-A partial
cleanup of this gravel mine at Pine
Grove, commonly known as the
Wheeler claim, was made last week.
The sluice boxes were cleaned up of
their contents of gold, but the bed
rock was not touched to any extent.
The amount secured we have not
heard, but interested parties express
themselves as we'll satisfied with the
output so far. Mr. Murchie, the
manager in charge, is a thoroughly
experienced miner in this class of
work, and there is a general opinion
that the operations of this company
bid fair to be successful from a none
tary point of view. Should this do
sirable result be secured, it will prove
great help to Pine Grove, as there
is vast amount of ground to be
worked, the auriferous channel cover
ing from 20 to 80 acres, included
within the mining claim.
= Misunderstanding at this mine is
in progress, and was started early in
the month. 1t is intended to sink
one hundred and fifty feet at least.
This will carry the shaft down to the
5000 level, by long adds the deepest
gold mine in the country. There
are deeper quartz mines in Australia.
at Bendigo they are working 4OOO feet
below the surface. Little trouble is
experienced in the kennedy on &C.
count of the increased beat conse-
quent upon depth. This problem,
which Is very serious one in some
places, is not bothersume locally.
The geological formation has much to
do with the temperature. 1t does
not depend entirely, or even mainly,
upon depth. With good circulation
of air, the workers In the lower levels
are little more inconvenienced than
those at onehalf its depth.
Del Monte.-At the meeting of
0AAOSlOAo AOAO WOOh3 IL WAS T6-
solved to increase the capital stock
from 800, to $780, 900. A special
meeting of stockholders has been
called for July 9th, to vote upon the
proposition. A misfortune befell the
company last month in the destruc-
tion of the assay office by accidental
fire. The loss is about $500, fully
covered by insurance. At the same
time, a quantity of amalgam kept
in the assay office, and valued at
about S400, was lost. During the fire
it was upset, and went down the hill.
A new compressor has been received
at the Kennedy mine. 1t will be
placed in position as soon sa the
necessary cement required can be
had. At the present time cement is
scarce article in the market.

Finger Tip Lost.

A. Caminetti, the we'll known
attorney OF Jackson, met with a pain
full accident on Monday evening. AT
the Caminetti ranch they had been
branding cattle for two or three days.
Monday evening Mr. Caminetti went
to the ranch. There were yet SIX more
to brand. He started to help, and
when they came to the sixth and last
one, IN some way the index finger oi
his left hand was caught, and wedged
between two bars. The end of his
finger was completely severed at about
the junction of the nail. Although
painful the injured finger Is healing
rapidly.

Shooting Affair.

What is supposed to be an acci-
dental shooting occurred at the Oneida
mine last Wednesday evening, about
eight o'clock. After their days work
is finished some of the Austrian
miners are accustomed to assemble
around the bunk house, and getting
out their firearms indulge in little
target practice. Wednesday they
we're out practicing. A number of
shots we're fired, no one paying any
attention to what they were shooting
at. About the time they we're
through one of the Austrians stepI ed
from the door of his room, which is in
a direct line with the hoisting works,
and about two hundred and fifty
yards distant. He fred shot, SEEM
ingly at nothing in particular. AT
the hoist were standing at the time,
two or three men talking. AS the
shot was fred enc of the men fell !;
the bullet had struck him in the hip.
The unfortunate man was taken to
the bunk house, and DR.. Gall hastily
sent for. Sheriff Norman was also
summoned. DIR. Gall examined the
man, and probed for the bullet, but
did not locate it. 1t had evidently
embedded itself some three to four
inches. An investigation by sheriff
Norman revealed the fact that none
of the men seemed to know anything
about any gun or gun shots. AS if by
magic all the weapons disappeared,
although it is known there were
several around a short time before.
Sheriff Norman succeeded in locating
revolver, of the IverJ ohnson
pattern, 32-caliber five shooter. He
| found it hid in the trunk of tree,
near the railroad track. No inform
alton being volunteered by any of the
men, he threatened to take them all
| to town. That had the desired effect.
The owner of the weapon then ad-
mitted he had fired one shot and his
cousin two shots. They we're brought
in by the sheriff, and are being held
until the district attorney returns,
and the seriousness of the wound can
be determined. The two men ale
cousins, Bias Church, and l.. Chu-
rich. This morning they told the
sheriff that one had fired fonI shots
and the other one, which would show
that the revolver had been fully
loaded.
The wounded man is an Italian,
named D. Barbero, twenty four years
of age. He has only been in this
country six months. He was en-
pIoyed at the time of the shooting on
the l. and Il. K. K. as a section hand,
and lived at the same boarding house
with the miners. g. Buonacorsi, the
proprietor of the boarding house,
said he knew of no trouble or ami
mostly between the two men. 1t is
thought that it was purely accidental,
although it showed carelessness on
the part of the individual that did it,
in shooting toward any building.
superintendent Hampton of the mine,
says that he had warned the men to
be careful and not shoot towards the
buildings.
DR.. Gall states that he may be all
right in few days, unless unforeseen
complications arise, which would
make his recovery more doubtful
The authorities will hold the two
men until further developments.
The patient was resting we'll at last
accounts.
