Hotel Land is finished. This majestic
hotel, which is the worthy successor Of
the state house was conceived and
build by William Land of Sacramento.
Mr. Land stands foremost as a prac-
tical hotel man. He has erected in
Sacramento City a monument to it's
growing greatness, as well as his own
marvellous success as a financial and
commercial genius. Monday, August
18th, the doors will be thrown open to
the legion of town and country people
who flock to whatever hotel Mr. Land
conducts. Everybody from every
where will make it their home when in
Sacramento. The furnishings are all
new. Every room or suite will have a
telephone, hot and cold water and
steam heat. The artesian wells on the
premises will furnish the water sup
ply. These wells are the product of
subterranean streams. Popular prices
will rate and the European plan pre-
vail. All aboard for Sacramento.
Even the Sailors will desert their ships
to come and have drink on Land.

Episcopal Services

One does have to go to a large city
in order to participate in a beautiful
and impressive religious ceremony.
This was fully demonstrated in the
Episcopal church last Sunday evening.
1t was a special flower service" as
the rector stated, to commemorate the
custom of long ago, when the choice
fruits of the field were brought to the
church and presented to God as a
Thanksgiving for bountiful harvest.
In floral display throughout the
church on the occasion was most
beautiful. Every window ledge was
neatly festooned with flowers and
shrubbery, while the chancel sanctuary
and altar were very tastefully de-
corated.
The uniqueness of the ceremony, to
which the beautiful Episcopal service
readily adapts itself, consisted of the
floral offering by the pastor and the
surpliced choir. With the first sweet
strains of the organ that silence be-
fore service, which always pervades an
Episcopal congregation, was gently
interrupted; the choir entered and
passed up the center isle singing a
procession hymn and carrying bouquets
of roses. AS the crossbearer at the
head of the procession reached the
sanctuary railing, halt was made,
the ranks opened and the pastor fol-
lowed IN succession by the choristers in
rear, passed through the midst to the
altar. After all had made their offer.
ing, without interruption to the sing
ing or to the order of the procession,
pastor and choir took their usual
places in the chancel, and the regular
services were held.

INJURIES FATAL
Popular Miner Laid to
His Final Rest
Yesterday

Geo. P. Bonnefoy died at Copper
Hill last Monday. August Is, at 5:45.
BOnnefoy was employed at the Copper
Hill mine and had attempted to ex-
tinguish large brush fire which had
been raging near the mine. The un-
fortunate man was 81 years of age,
native of California, and a member
Of Plymouth parlor, No. 48, N. S. G.
W., under whose auspices the funeral
was, conducted on Thursday afternoon
August 18, from the Latrobe hotel at
2 o. clock.
Bonnefoy, VINO is foreman at the
Copper Hill mine is thought to have
gone out into the fields to beat out a
fire, and so prevent it from destroying
fences and outbuildlngs. While he
was putting out the blaze he failed to
notice that the fire was being back
fired, and as result he was caught
between the flames and severely
burned about the hands, he was found
later unconscious and with life nearly
extinct.
DIR. Hart of Sacramento was called,
and hastened to Copper Hill in large
auto. DR.. Norman of Plymouth also
called DR.. Endicott of Jackson, who
hastily drove to the scene of the acci-
dent.
Bonnefoy. however, was past med1-
cal assistance, and never regained
consciousness up to his death. The un-
fortunate man is we'll known in ANA
dor county, and has host of friends
In Jackson who bewail his sad and un-
timely death.
The particulars of this sad affair
are not fully known. He must have
gone out alone. There seems to have
been no one working with him at the
danger point. His presence on the
windward side of the fire was evident
| ly not known to the others who were
backfiring. AS soon as this firing was
started, of course he was threatened
with suffocation from smoke and
flame. 1t is probable he took the only
course open, nancy, made a brave
rush through the flames that we're be-
ing driven IN upon him by the wind.
In doing this he was evidently over
come by smoke or inhaling the flames,
and fell exhausted. The burns about
the body were severe, but not sufficient
to cause death, in so short time.
Deceased has been working at the
Copper mine owned by w. F. Detert
for a number of years. He was pro-
prietor of the Latrobe hotel, and also
recently purchased the VanderpooI
ranch near Plymouth, and preparing
to engage In the dairy business. He
was getting along nicely in worldly
circumstances. He leaves a wife and
several children, all grown up to
| mourn MS sad end.

Alpine Mining Company.

This company, which has been or
ganized for some time, has purchased
from the Bank of California for a
large sum the Alpine mine, situated
partly within the town site of Ply
mouth. The property has been idle
for over thirty years. 1t adjoins the
famous Plymouth Consolidated, which
has yielded millions to the fortunate
stockholders of bonanza days. Capt.
talists of Oakland are principally in
terested in the company to operate the
Alpine claim. They mean BUSINESS,
and.the deal was consummated after a
thoroug investigation of the property,
and reports thereon made by different
experts in the days of its activity.
The company has been incorporated
Tor 81, 900. 900, with ample capital al
ready subscribed to provide means to
equip and develop the property. The
machinery and timbers for the hoist
have been ordered, and already sup
plies are on the way for the COM
mencement of operations. John L..
Henry, a mining engineer of note,
who has had experience in the mineral
fields of Montana and Utah, is presi-
dent of the company, and will person
ally superintend the work of develop
ment. The Tiffany residence has been
purchased and he will make his home
there. The office of the company is
72O-721 Kohl building, San Francisco.
The prospects for opening up good
mine on this property are very bright.
There are two shafts both sunk in
ealy days. One is 260 feet deep. the
other 700, with. 480 feet of drifts. The
ore body is reported by those who are
in position to know to be from to
feet wide, and yielded So per ton from
the plates. No effort was made to
save the sulphurets in those days, and
with modern applicances these will
add materially to the yield.
The Alpine was closed on account of
litigation in the foreclosure of lien by
the bank, and the Bank of California,
which has held it for so many years,
placed a stiff price upon it, and would
not bond, but insisted upon cash pur
chase. The deeds, we understand, have
already passed. The company has also
purchased the Hartford claim adjoin-
ing, which includes a parallel ledge
known as the Reese and Woolforc
ledge. The people of Plymouth are
jubllant over the starting of this mine.
1t is reported that the Plymouth
Consolidated has been bought by a
company with strong financial backing
and will be worked at an early date.
Capitalists are beginning TO realize
that Amador county offers the best op-
portunity for the investment of capital
in mines to be found anywhere in
America. This is freely conceded by
Mr. Henry, who is familiar with a
number of noted mining regions.
