The Rainfall.

The present fall season has been the
most propitious known in this section.
The rainfall has been ample to give
an excellent start Grass has
made sufficient headway to afford good
pickings for stock already, as the rains
have been accompanied with remarkably
warm growing weather The rainfall
for the past week has measured 20l
inches. making total of 6 3 inches
for the season to date, against AS in
ches for the corresponding period last
year. Not for years has so much rain
fallen at this early period of the rainy
season. The outlook is very bright for
the agricultural interests.

Turkey Shooting.

The turkey shooting at New York
Ranch on Sunday last attracted a num-
Der of sharpshooters from Jackson and
elsewhere, and the boys who attended
had lots of fun for their money,
twenty-five birds were offered for
sacrifice. OF these eight were won by
the Dalporta brothers, five by A. Lave
rome and four by A. Marcucc. The
shoot on thanksgiving day was abandoned
on account of the threatening weather.
The turkeys were brought to Jackson
and afforded the crack shots ample
amusement at 25 cents per shot.
Quite a number were disposed of. The
promoters came out ahead of the game,
as is almost invariably the case.

EMMA LeDOUX DYING
OF CONSUMPTION
The Convicted Murderess
Wasting in Stockton Jail

Emma LeDoux, who was convicted of
the murder Of McVicar in Stockton in
March, 1906 but who was granted new
trial by the supreme court, was taken
before the superior court of San Joaquin
county on Monday last, when the second
trial of the celebrated trunk murder case
was set for February 2. 1t is alleged
that she is slowly wasting away from
the ravages Of consumption, and doubt
full whether she will survive to stand a
second trial. She appeared in court
wan and pale and wasted in flesh,
coughing necessarily and splitting blood
the mere ghost of her former self.
Her attorney Charles H. Fairall, who
was the leading counsel for the defense
in the first trial, appeared for the ac-
cused last Monday. The crime charged
against this woman, who was raised
from childhood in Amador county, was
one of the most atrocious and remarkable
iu annals of this state. McVicar, to whom
she had been married, was drugged in a
lodging house in Stockton, and the
victim, while still alive, was jammed
into trunk, all supposed to have been
done by the accused woman unaided.

Preston Manager
Ousted by Governor.

1t has just come to light here that DIR.
william T. Randall, who said he gave
up the superintendency Of the Preston
School of Industry at lone to enter edu-
catiola work at Berkeley, was forced to
resign his post a week ago BY the Gov
ernor and the board of trustees of the
reform school because of his cruel treat
ment of the boys in the institution.
Charles H. Dunton succeeded him.
The Investigation made by the Gov
ernor was at the instigation of the State
Board of Charities and Corrections,
which looked into complaints made to it
and found them true. One of the
charges was that Randall imprisoned a
boy for ninety days in dark attic. In
addition TO charges of cruelty, he is
said to have favored the Free Methods
sect in the school and showed decided
lack Of initiative in the way of practic-
ing economies.
Secretary B. b. Deming of the State
Board of Examiners WIS reticent in
talking of the affair saying it had been
deemed best for the welfare of the
school as we'll as Randall to keep the
true cause of the action quiet. Deming
said that Randall would not admit he
was in the wrong, so the only course
left open to him was 70 resign. -

MINING NOTES.

Kennedy-Last week a record break
ing achievement was accomplished by
the shaft repairers at this mine.
Ninety-six feet of the shaft was retim-
bered in AZ hours. This is a phenome-
nal accomplishment in this line. OF
course the work was going steadily dur
ing that time employing three shifts OF
eight hours each. This leaves tine
shaft in good shape with only four or
five sets of timbers to be replaced, and
this can be done without a cessation of
ore extraction. A new level is being
opened at the 1900 foot station. The
ledge was encountered at this depth a
week ago, but development work had not
progressed sufficiently to determine its
character as to size and gold-bearing
qualities. There is little doubt, how
ever, that it will prove as productive as
in the levels above. AS soon as this
level is fully opened, sinking operations
will be in order again, to develop the
mine $50 feet below 1t is worthy of
remark that the Kennedy is not only the
deepest. but also the biggest mining
and milling proposition that Amador
county has known. Its 100 stamp mill
eats up rock at the rate of 400 tons per
day. And ever since this giant mill
was started eight years, it has been kept
going to its full capacity. No curtail-
ment of its crushing capacity has ever
been necessary from lack of ore in
sight to feed its voraciouS NAV. This
speaks highly of the management, The
Plymouth Consolidated was the next
biggest quartz enterprise, employing
eighty stamps on the mammoth ore
bodies of the Empire and Pacific at Ply
mouth. But this lasted but few years,
and its stamps have been silent for
twenty years. The Oneida sixty stamp
is another illustration of over sanguine
mining-big surface works without
underground development to back them
up. But every move in the erection of
the ponderous hoisting and crushing
machinery of the Kennedy has been
amply justified by the underground de-
velopment.
Orr Claim-Work has been suspended
on this promising quartz claims near
Plymouth, on account of the quantity
of water to be contended with. The
facilities for handling such a flow of
water being inadequate, it was deemed
advisable to suspend working until
spring, when ample machinery to con-
troll the water will be provided.

CAPITALISTS
FROM NEW YORK
Visit plymouth and Invest in Min
ing Property,

Last Saturday big delegation of capi-
talists direct from New York, reached
Plymouth, travelling in automobiles.
There were eighteen visitors on that day
and two others had preceded them
several days, making twenty in ALL
They came for the express purpose of
inspecting the Bay State mines, between
Plymouth and the Cosumnes river.
They we're shown over the works by the
superintendent H. G. Torrance, who
posted them on everything pertaining to
mine and mill While the outlook
for this mine is regarded as very bright,
it requires the expenditure of more
capital to open it up, and place it up
on solid working basis, and hence the
necessity of getting moneyed men in
terested in the venture. After
thorough investigation, we are Informed
that the visitors were so well pleased
with the property, that at meeting in
Plymouth Saturday evening the neces-
sary sum to take up the option of pur
chase on the mine, and also ample
capital to develop the claim was sub
scribed by those present. 1t is reported
that each one subscribed So, 900 for that
purpose. The residents of Plymouth
have waited long for the boon. to strike
that burg, and they fully believe that the
dawn of good times has now reached
them. The delegation left for San Fran
cisco Sunday. to attend the gathering
of New Workers which was held at the
st. Francis hotel on Tuesday evening.
1t is the general impression that this
infusion of capital will be Immediately
felt in the development of this promising
mining property on large scale. There
is a ten stamp mill on the mine, which
has always proved inadequate to deal
with mother lode propositions. BY in
creasing the milling capacity, and open
ing the mine at depth, the promoters are
sanguine of developing a solid mining
industry at this point on the main lode.
