Dance at Oneida SchooIhouse.

Last Saturday evening the trustees
of the Oneida school gave a benefit
dance in the new school building be-
ing erected at jackson Gate. The
tickets to the dance we're one dollar,
while raviola supper was served in
the old school house at fifty cents per
plate. The total receipts for the
evening we're 1925, about $50 of which
went for expenses, leaving balance
of nearly $3.50. This will probably be
used for the purchase of large bell.
Joe Ratio was the floor manager.
The dance broke up after three in
the morning. The school house is
nearly finished, that is all the rock
work has been completed. 1t is a
good sized building, The walls being
entirely made OF granite in the rough.
1t will be divided into two rooms
The east side is nearly taken up with
windows, while on the west there are
only sufficient to give good light;
this was done so that the rooms
would be cool in the afternoons of
hot days. The school is in a very
slightly location, being on the top of
quite hill, and will present good
appearance to the passerby.

In Judge Thompson's Court.

The case of the people of the state
VS.. James Carirra, charge OF assault,
complaint of Dan Driscoll, came up
for trial Monday morning A number
of witnesses were called and they all
testified to the efe3t that Carirra had
hit DIiscoll first, though the latter
had threatened Carirra. He was
found guilty of the charge and fined
SO, which he paid. The cases of the
people against Virgilo Boro, Dan
Driscoll and Steve AngoVe for
vagrancy, complaint of e.. b. Arditto,
were dismissed. This is the last of
the cases before the Judge as the
result OF the row last Sunday night.
Miss Eva Black, alias Eva Howard,
was brought up from Sacramento last
Friday evening by city Marshal
Huberty on the charge of vagrancy,
and lodged in the county jail to await
tIial Monday morning. Her bail was
fixed at 500, but she could not raise
this amount either in Sacramento or
here. She was taken before the
judge, plead guilty to the charge and
was fined $50, which she vas unable
to pay for few days.
Last Saturday night Antoine Frana-
tovIch was lodged in the county jail
on the charge OF holding an unlawful
conversation with a prisoner. Eva
Black had been confined in the front
part OF the Jail, where she could
easily talk with an outsider. Frana-
tovich had wanted to bail her out but
could not raise the cash, so he de-
cided to talk with her. Two or three
times he was warned away from the
vicinity of the Jail, but each time he
would go back. Finally sheriff Gre
CORY saw him about nine O'Clock talk
ing with the woman, so he threw him
into one of tho cells. Sunday being
a holiday, there was nothing for him
to do but to waiE until Monday,
when no was taken before Judge
Thompson, and was fined $40, which
he paid.
