REVOLVERS
FLOURISHED
Amador City Fighters
Face Very Serious
Charges

Amador City was furnished with ex-
element on Monday evening last by a
fight in which two pistols were
hourished The only serious damage
done was suffered by Manuel Lopez,
who was bitten on the chin by John
Delucchi during the alteration.
According to the information that
we received of the fracas, it seems a
miner named Lopez asked Delucchi,
who is shift boss at mine located in
Amador, to reemploy him, he having
quit his job some time back.
Lopez claims Delucchi said he
would take him back providing he
would advance $40 for his job. This.
to be sure, is denied by Delucchi, who
claims he never suggested or inferred
in any way, deal Of the above
character.
On Monday evening, as Delucchi
was seated in front of the Amador
hotel, Lopez happened by, and De-
lucch hailed him, intending to enter a
conversation as he claims. A few I'M
savory words were exchanged and in
an instant the two were exchanging
blows at each other Delucchi hav-
ing been worsted in the ARRAY hurried
into the Amador hotel, secured a re-
volver and reappeared threatening his
opponent, who again turned on the
shift boss and disarmed him after a
struggle, in which Delucchi is accused
of biting his combatant on the chin.
At this juncture, George Kakich en-
tered the wrangle, because as he said
he objected to see his comrade being
bitten by Delucchi. John Coffman,
who was witness of the entire fight
objected to Kakich mixing into the
trouble, and he also fourished re-
volver to scare Kakich away.
The fighters were subdued after
much argument, when Lopez and
Kakich went before the local justice
and swore out complaints of assault
with deadly weapons against Coffman-
and Delucchi, who were released on
bonds of $500 each for a preliminary
hearing.

Lad Has Operation

Amiel Sangunetti, the 10 year old
son of Mr. and Mrs Lawrence San
guinetti of Jackson, was removed to
the Suffer Creek sanitarium on
Tuesday last.
The lad underwent an operation for
tuberculosis of the bone in his left
leg this morning. He had been given
medical attention for several months,
but the disease stubbornly resisted
all treatment of this kind, and an
operation was decided upon to reach
the seat of the trouble, and effect a
cure. The trouble is supposed to have
had it's origin in a sprain several
months ago, when the lad wrenched
his knee.

MINE NEWS
ALONG LODE
Interesting Accounts of
Mines Located In
AmadOr Co.
Lincoln Consolidated.

At this mine they are making rapid
Roadway in the preliminary work.
They have cleared the shaft to the
water level. distance of $50 feet.
They are putting in On electric pump,
for the rapid unwatering of the shaft,
pumping plant will be in working or
der in the course of few days. 1t is
expected that it will take several
weeks before the shaft is free of
water, much depending of course, on
the condition of the shaft, whether
caves have occurred therein or choked
with decayed timbers. Those in
terested in this property are much
gratified over the progress made thus
far, and feel confident that a paying
mine will be developed within the
boundaries of the land acquired by the
present company,
South Eureka.
1t is reported that mining operations
at this mine will be suspended next
month, so as to enable necessary re-
pairs to be made to the shaft. These
repairs will probably take all of three
months to complete. During this
time the mill will be at standstlll
most, if not all, of the time. 1t is
contemplated, however, to continue
the payment of the monthly dividends
of three cents per share, as the sur
plus in the treasury is deemed ample
to meet this outlay. By the time the
shaft repairing is completed the full
milling capacity of the company will
be ready to drop, and the stockholders
expect increased dividends thereafter.
Fremont
This mine is pegging along salts
factoriIy. A surplus is being ac-
cumulated and the stockholders are
looking for the return of the dividend
paying era. Since the fatal fire in the
shaft, which occurred in November,
1907, the stockholders have been with
out dividends.
Fred Eudey one of the directors of
the company, informs US that at the
meeting of the directors held last week
it was decided to resume the payment
of dividends, at the rate of two cents
per share per month, the same rate
that was paid previous to the fire.
The first dividend on this order was
paid on the 18th inst. There are 2OO,-
900 shares, so the amount disbursed
each month will amount to $4,000. The
surplus in the treasury is in the neigh
borhood of 100000. The mine is
looking well, and everything indicates
that the present rate of dividends will
be continued indefinitely.
