Severed an Artery.

Joe Bacigalupi, better known as
Indian Joe, of the Scottsville camp,
ran into trouble of his own seeking
on Wednesday night. About mid
nigh the appeared at the Olympus
saloon, much the worse for liquor.
Becoming quarrelsome, he was elected
from the place. 1t seems that in the
effort to put him out he thrust his
hand through the glass door, cutting
his wrist to the extent of serving the
main artery. The life fluid spurted
out as from force pump, and he
would speedily have bled to death,
had not prompt measures been taken
to stop the flow. Deputy sheriff Kay,
took the precaution to tie the arm
tightly above the wound thereby
stopping the bleeding to a great ex-
tent. DIR. Endicott was sent for, and
treated the injuries, after which Joe
was introduced to the county Jail.
About Is months ago he was con-
Yicted of shooting at a Mexican near
town, and sentenced to Is months in
State prison. He had been dis
charged only about two weeks, when
this fresh adventure overlook him.

Pretty Home Wedding.

A very pretty home wedding on
Christmas day was that of Miss Nellie
A. burnside, daughter of Mr. and Mrs
r. L. Burnside, and Carl Koch a
prominent Southern Pacific engineer,
which was solemnized at the home of
the BRIDES parents, 291S W street,
Rev. George E. Swan pronouncing
the ceremony under beautiful
wedding bell of maiden ferns. White
carnations and crysanthemums pink
and green with pottted plants and
palms we're the decorations. The
bride was beautifully gowned in
Persian cream voilie and carried a
bouquet of ferns and bIIde's roses.
Martin Burnside was groomsman and
Mss Edena Green was BRIDES maid.
She wore a dress of pink albatross
and carried bouquet of asparagus
ferns and pink rosebuds. The
marriage was solemnized at l O'Clock
in the presence OF near relatives and
a few invited friends. All partook of
sumptuous Christmas dinner. The
bride and groom departed on the
evening train for Los Angeles and the
city of Mexico. Sac. Union.
The groom is native of jackson,
and passed the years of his boyhood
days in this town. The Ledger
wishes the newly married pair abund-
ant happiness and prosperity.

Looting in Transit.

We mentioned last week that the
merchants of jackson are making an
oItory because of the shrinkage of
invoices of merchandise en- route,
principally from San Francisco. The
loss is not confined to any particular
department of merchandise. 1t en-
braces almost every line of business,
tobacco, cigars, liquors, being leaders.
We have heard in one instance a case
of one dozen was found Ito be SSshort
nine bottles. In a number of other
cases the shortage has been from 20 to
% per cent. This is a serious matter,
that demands a rigid investigation.
There was some talk of a movement
to have goods hauled by teams from
lone. ItEis now conceded that the
trouble does not rest with the lone
and Eastern road, nor yet with the
Amador Branch line from Calf to
lone. Watchers have been employed
along these lines, and nothing out of
the way has been discovered. The
packages are broken open and after a
liberal amount of loot has been
taken, they are secured so that M
outward indications appear that they
have been tampered with. We under
stand that merchants in other towns
are complaining of the same thing.
1t is now supposed that the shrinkage
takes place either at the starting
point, or some place along the main
line, where cars are often sidetracked
for days. 1t is likely that if the evil
continues a damage suit against the
railroad company will be started,
which will probably have the effect of
inducing the railroad to locate the
mischief for their own protection.

Rainfall.

A heavy hailstorm broke over this
city about midnight of Sunday last.
1t was accompanied by one of the
most terrific thunder storms we have
experienced for years. The tighten
ing was something grand, lighting up
the whole heavens. Rain and hail
fell in torrents for over quarter of
an hour, followed by slight snow
fall about 6 O'Clock in the morning.
The ground was covered with
mantle of white until late in the
morning. Nearly one inch of rain,
including the hail and snow, fell
during the storm. There were few
roofs that stood the test without
leaking, and some damage was done
to merchandise stocks on account of
leaking owing to the cutters being
choked with hail and snow. In
Gregorys' variety store some loss was
sustained in this way. At the local
brewery the electric transformer was
burned up. In the height of the
storm the alarm of fire was given on
account of this mIshap. There was
a display of fireworks that threatened
a serious blaze for time. However,
it did no other damage than putting
tho transformer out of commission.
This shut off the electric power from
the Ledger Office also during most of
the morning. Before noon an old
transformer was pressed into service
Temporarily and things moved along
as smoothly as before.
DuIinglthe past week the rainfall in
jackson has been as follows:
