The BuII6oht.

We went to bullfght and wished
we had stayed away. 1t is quite as
unpleasant as people say, and the
cruelty to the horses turns one sick.
If it was merely an affair between the
men, who are undoubtedly very skill
full, and the bull, which is probably so
mad with rage as to be past feeling
much pain, one could shrug ones shout
ders at the queer game and find some
excuse, but for the torture of those
poor old blindfolded screws there can
be no shadow of palliation. After three
bulls had been killed we had seen
more than enough, especially as the
horses in the third encounter had al
ready been badly gored in the second,
and the third bull was not killed neat

Hospital Inmates
Enjoy Christmas

Christmas eve the inmates of the
county hospital had their Christmas
tree, as has been the custom for the
past four years. Each one of them
had his name called out twice for
the presents that were on the tree.
Besides the inmates, a number of
the neighbors had come in, so that
there were about seventy people pre-
sent at the time. After the presents
were given out Mr.. Justus entertain
ed them with some of his best pieces
on his photograph, besides which
different ones did various stunts to
the great pleasure of the visitors. Mrs
Patterson had taken up collection
among different ones in town, SO that
nuts, candy, bananas, oranges and
appIes were distributed. Mr. Marie
sent up hundred cigars so that all
the men had good smoke. Christ
mas day a big turkey dinner was
served in the dining room, seventy

Found Lying in Road.

Ed. Benoist, an old man between
60 and 10 years of age, was found this
morning lying in the public road at
the old ketcham place, north of
town. He has been in charge of the
ranch, which is now owned by Geo.
L. Thomas, and used in connection
with his butchering business. An
other employee happened to be going
by and saw the man lying by the wire
fence and went to his assistance. He
was IN dazed or unconscious state.
His hands were torn, evidently in
trying to get through the barbed wire
fence. His clothes we're muddy, and
apparently he had been lying there
for hours, if not during the whole
night. There was bottle of whiskey
in his pocket, and this no doubt was
answerable in part for bis predica-
ment. He was conveyed back to the
ranch, and soon revived. 1t is quite
likely that serious consequences
would have resulted had he remained
there much longer. The night was
not cold one for this season of the
year, and to this fact he is perhaps
indebted for his life. He formerly
lived at Butte mountain for many
years.

The Oneida
School Building.

The trustees of Oneida school dis
trict have not yet made arrangements
for the buiidingEof the new school
house. Bonds have been voted and
sold and the trustees have something
like $4,000 available for the new
building. 1t is proposed to have a
stone building, as it was thought that
it would be cheaper if constructed of
this material than of brick. Pro-
posals we're called in accordance with
plans and specifications made by an
architect in the city. Bids were
opened recently, and the lowest bid
was $500, far beyond the means at
the disposal of the trustees. They
believed that building substantial
and ornamental could be had for
$4,000 or less. Of course the contract
could not be let under the call for
bids, so they we're rejected. 1t seems
that the plans call for what is known
as rubble work, that is the stone to
be trimmed and made to fit, and of
different sizes adjoining. This in
volved a great deal of extra work,
which the trustees did not really un-
derstand at the time. Now, it seems
that good stone building can be put
up, with rough masonry, and plaster
ed, for thousand or so less than the
lowest bid under the former adver-
tisement. 1t is probable that new
bids will be called for. and the con-
tract let with this understanding.
The building is to be 30x70 feet, and
two rooms, each 30x35 feet.

Teachers Certificate.

Ihe board of education completed
its work of examination of applicants
and awarding certificates to the sue
cesstul ones last Monday. Out of a
class of 20 applicants, only seven
were awarded certificates, namely:
Ida Jensen of Fresno; Blanche Laird,
Ellen Beatie of Stockton; M. A.
Besse TO Canine, Ell Dorado county
Edith LESLEY of Suffer Creek; inertia
E. Weymouth of Los Gatos, formerly
of Drytown; and Matte Myrtle
Hendrick of Brown Valley, Yuba
county.
The fact that such a small percent
age of applicants passed the ordeal is
liable to be misunderstood, and there
fore it is not out of place to make
some explanation, lest the idea be
entertained that the questions sub
mitted were of an unusually difficult
character. The test question we're
not particularly hard; and the failure
of number can be easily explained
without rejecting upon the ability
of the applicants or assuming excep-
tional exactions on the part of the
board of education. Some years ago
rule was adopted by the board to
the effect that applicants receiving
the required IS per cent of credits in
ten or more subjects, should be
allowed such credits at any subse-
quent examination, and if successful
in other branches should be awarded
certificates, without any further ex-
animation on the studies heretofore
credited to them. This rule is wise
one. 1t avoided the cramming in a
multitude1of studies, and left the ap-
pllcants to concentrate their efforts
on ten or more subjects. The effect
of this rule has therefore been to
allow applicants to take the examina-
ton by instalments as it we're, to aim
at proficiency in at least ten studies
the first effort, and the next examina-
ton turn their attention to the
other branches necessary to secure
certificates. Now at the examination
last week There were number of
students who came without expecta :
ton of doing more than securing the
necessary standing in ten or more
subjects. And six applicants we're
awarded the necessary credits as fol-
lows: Il
Amy b. Clark of jackson, in ID
subjects.
Grace Dufene of Stockton, in Is
subjects.
Ida McKissson of West Point, in 10
subjects.
blanche Nichol of Pine Grove, in
II subjects.
Ethel A. Clay of San joaquin. in
10 subjects.
Lydia Winter of lone, in 10 sub
iects.
This makes Is out of 20 applicants
who were successful in whole or in
part in the examination.
The following we're granted certi6-
Gates on credentials presented: Ethel
NJ. Berry, Isabel A. Nay, Mabel A.
Shaw, Celia b. Watrous, Chas. A.
Burbank, and Florence A. DeIahunty.
Certificates of Rose Cook and James
Moore we're renewed.
The roll call of teachers at the last
teachers institute was adopetd as
read.
A number of library books we're
adopted.
The school superintendent was in
stIucted to write the state superin-
tendent requesting that the study OF
civil government as at present adopt
ed be not dropped from the public
school list. A proposition is agitated
to emerge this subject with another,
and against this proposition the Anna
dor board is arrayed.

Il 10 to Gain Heaven.
In the third week in June, fol-
lowing a custom established over q
thousand years ago, Hindoos by tens
Of thousands flock to Pouri, in Oris-
50, India, for the religious festival
OF Juggernaut.
From the temple the famous car
! Of Juggernaut is brought forth and
dragged through the streets. It
heads the annual procession of dew
otees of the god Vishnu, or Jugger-
maui, lord Of the universe, whose
image or statue, without legs and
with stumps Of arms, rests within
the colossal car.
Hundreds of pilgrims harness
themselves to the stout cables by
which the car is drawn. As they
pull the ponderous car on its clum-
~ wheels many work themselves
up to a degree Of religious fervor
little short of madness. And ia
natics attempt to throw themselves
to destruction under the murderous
wheels as voluntary sacrifice to
their idol. British civil officers pre-
vent any act Of suicide.
Hindoos believe that to gain the
favor Of Juggernaut opens for them
the gates of heaven. Therefore in
the days before the British occupa-
ton Of India natives occasionally
cast their bodies under the car to
be crushed to pulp, the belief be-
ing that self immolation thus would
be speedily rewarded by entrance
into paradise.
The car is forty-three feet high.
It's wheels are each more than six
feet high. A wooden cage around
the top, an addition of recent years,
keeps fanatics from jumping upon
their idol within. Body and wheels
are of wood beautifully sculptured
and inlaid, and for the festival the
car is draped with gold CLOTH Ex-
change.

saw one at the hacienda. He saw just
where Don Artero would attack and
1ust where he would meet with disas-
ter. There weren't dozen poems on
the ranch who would fight, and some
thing besides fighting must be resorted
to. The first thing was to find out
what the don would do in case he cap
tured Don Artero and his band.
When told that all would be killed he
sat down and had talk with the old
man. Four days later hundred big
bear traps arrived from Mexico City.
The bear trap market was firmer than
for years before. The poems dug up
a certain space Of ground and planted
the traps, and then Don Chuaya sent
word to Don Artero that he was
robber a thief, blowhard and cow
ard. There was to be no more black
mail. The big robber was insulted.
sneered at and def1ed. He was told
that IL he came within a mile of the
hacienda he would be chawed to rags.
You can wager that such a message
made the others hair curl. He read
the missive and then swore by the
heard of his father that he would tear
ns,t the adobe walls of the others cas-
flo and eat his fried heart for lunch
con. He meant what he said, and the
horn was sounded and the dogs OF
war unleashed. His band now num-
hened thirty-five men, and on the very
next morning they appeared In front
of the hacienda, and immediate aud
unconditional surrender was demand
cd. Don Chuaya appeared and hurled
vila epithets at the robbers and dared
+bom to come on. The thing worked
inst as the red headed engineer said
n would. After you have called a
Mexican cattle thief a coyote. snake.

Tor from a nearer standpoint. Don
Ar+ero uttered yell and led the
charge. Only three or four rifles
blazed at his gang. There was just
room for the line to sweep across the
ground planted with bear traps, ana
within a minute after the yell the traps
were doing business. Snap. snap. went
their heavy jaws, and yells and boots
Of pain and terror followed.
General Grant couldn't have done
better in his palmiest days. Out OF
the thirty-five scoundrels all but three
were caught and held fast, and when
non Chuaya went out to inspect them
he found no fight left in even the
leader. The captrves could not have
mfrered more had they received two
bullets apiece. The engineer had busi-
nees elsewhere for two or three days
after the fight When he returned Tor
h.a sraut of land he found Don Chuaya
n possession Of the Artero ranch and
IN host of cattle, and there was no
ons 10 dispute. He inquired for the
nrisoners and was told that they had
gone on a journey. When ne nad
rested day or two the don handed
him certain papers and checks and
smiling, said:
