That sensational speaking campaigns and

ERNEST BOWERS RELEASED
FROM JAIL UNDER BOND

Ernest Bowers was given prelimi-
nary hearing before Judge Logan at
the instance Of District Attorney
Paese and placed under bonds in the
sum Of $500 for period CT one week
to await trial on the charge Of stab
bling Jim McMullen at Chandler
Bowers. who had been in Jail for
week. returned to Chandler imme-
diately upon the acceptance Of his
bond by the court and will remain
there with his family until the time
set for the prosecution of the case
against him by the district attorney.
MoMullen's injuries, while still
serious. are no longer considered
dangerous and it is believed that he
will be able to appear in court on the
oath. inst, and give his version of
the trouble which led to the encoun-
ter with Bowers. There is said to be
no hatred existing between the two
men and that McMullen has no de-
sire to zee Bowers punished for the
assault upon him. Both men were
drunk at the time and now that they
have sobered up neither Of them cher
ish any malice, in fact, MoMullen
would not appear against defendant If
it could be avoided.
Bowers has wife and three chill
dren and is regarded as quiet, in
dustrious peaceable citizen He has
a brother at Chandler. who few
days ago was stricken with paralysis,
that has always taken a deep interest
in his welfare, aud the misfortune
that has befallen him in his kins-
mans illness, no doubt had some-
thing to do in securing his release
from the county Jail.

Now il this road Is thrown onto

of running parallel with them as at

A word in regard to the graded hill
at the foot of Pixies Peak. II this
hill WAS brought to a railroad grade
from the north end of the river
bridge to its top; say three per cent
grade; from. the end of the bridge
past the Union mill pump house to
the elbow at the foot of the grade,
it would elevate the road at this point
eighteen to twenty feet and an uni
form grade to its top would make a
very easy grade at ne-fourth Of the
expense of grading down the north
bank OF the river or building bridge
and road at the Smith ranch.
This graded hill when once brought
to a uniform grade, will always re-
main the road to the Union mill, Ora
Junction and all the roads diverging
east and west from this road.
The new route from the top of the
graded hill to Pest House gulch will
require considerable work, but once
completed will draw all the present

The effect was instantaneous. With
a succession of howls and curses the
band broke and ran-all save one
man, who leaped swiftly forward with
a long knife in his hand.

Bathinu an Indian God

Thousands of pilgrims from the va.
rious outlying villages and other parts
of the Hooghly district poured in from
an early hour in the morning to the
temples of Jagernath, says the Cal
cutta Statesman.
The image of the god is placed on a
conspicuous part of the temple, so that
1t can be viewed at an advantage by
the immense crowd of pilgrims, and
there at certain fixed hour the bath
ing ceremony commences.
The most curious part of the festival
is that water is not poured on the
image of the god until a certain small
bird is found sitting on the topmost
banner Of the temple. There is a pop
ular belief that the bird comes from
Puri, the famous place Of Hindoo pill
grimage, to Mahesh, on the day of this
festival. and his very presence is an
indication that the ceremony should
commence. Immediately after the
bath is over the bird disappears.
