sheet containin'; local adverti-meots > will
be iesued nest week. The number then
ommitted will be supplied at the end of the

Captured. —Schneider, “the man who
stole Bell’s horse,” and who escaped from
jail last Sunday evening, was captured at
American Ranch, Tuesday, and brought
back to prison. He was captured under
the following circumstances : Tuesday
morning Mr. Anderson’s boys went out to
the barn and found Scheider, whom they
did not know, asleep among the bales of
hay. They ordered him to leave, where
upon he went over to Wright it Bedford’s
store, got some crackers, and left. Aitcr
he departed, Jerry Wright, Harry Borg
and John A. McCar’ey, happened to think
that he might be the ‘‘man who stole Bell’s
horse,” am] decided to overhaul him and
see wliat he had to say for himself. So he
was overhauled, and brought back to the
store, and soon recognized as Schneider,
the escaped prisoner. Schneider is not in
as good luck as his namesake in the play.
The namesake didn’t steal a horse and ride
it down to Chico and get arrested, hut he
mounted a “mool” one evening when a
battle was raging, and the next morning he
was “more as a 100 miles avay” from all
danger. Try a “mool” next lime.
New Goods AM) Supplies.— The win
ter storms have set in, but they did not
catch our business men unprepared for lire
wet season. In fact our merchants and
business men have on band unusually large
stocks of new goods and supplies this win
ter, and strangers accustomed to pur
chasing goods at retail stores in towns
near the Bay, and coming up here for the
first time, arc surprised to see how low the
prices are in this mountain place.
In fire Dry Goods, Clothing ami Fancy
Goods line, D. Weil & Brother, and A
Grotefend & Co., have large new stocks, and
their'assartircnts embrace absolutely every
thing that can be needed or thought of. —
At the Pioneer store A. L. Howner is sel
ling off a large slock at surprisingly cheap
rates.
lu the Grocery and Provision branch of
business, A. Grofetend & Co., D. 1 yneh,
and Frank Litsch, have well selected stocks
embracing every variety of articles ever
kept in their line of trade—all nice and
fresh,
E. Voluntinc, ofthe Hardware establish
ment, is ready to supply anything needed in
the Tinsmith or Hardware line. In fact
he has r.n immense variety of useful arti
cle) and cute inventions more than we
could mention in a week, so call at the
store and sec with your own eyes.
That Gux. —Schneider thinks Bob’s
Spencer gun will do to “make-believe
hunt’’ with, but he don’t go a cent on if
when it comes to real hunting. Says that
the morning after his escape he felt pretty
hungry, and kept his eye peeled for game.
Near Clear Creek he spied a rabbit which
was accommodating enough to stop close to
him for several minutes, during which time
he vainly endeavored to shoot at it, but
did not understand enough about the
gun to succeed in firing it off. Finally he
gave up the idea of shooting the rabbit,
and proceeded a little further on, and was
climbing over a fence, when the gun went
off, and as he states, “scared him nearly to
death.”
Full.—We regret to learn that A. W.
Baker's store, at Eagle Creek, was destroy
ed by fire Thursday night, Oec-tiiher 11th.
The fire caught from the bottom of the
stove. This stove had stood on a pine hex
for the last sixteen years, and the supposi
tion is that the dry box took fire from the
heat thrown out from the stove, the ashes
having been taken up pretty close. The
store was insured for 81100, and the loss
over that amount is SGOO, The store was
insured for -82000 up to the 17;h of Nov
vember, when the proprietor dropped off
8000, not feeling able to pay the rates a-V
--cd by the Company, besides feeling pretty
secure from fire.
Shorty Hayes.—The following is the
description of Shorty Hayes by the Marvs
ville police :

30 years, bight five feet three inches in

New Year’s Bale. —'Ihe New Year's
Ball, to be given in honor of the anniver
sary of the opening of the Empire Hotel
by its present proprietor, is an event look
ed forward to with anticipation of great
pleasure by the public, and we expect to
see a very large ;nl brilliant assemblage
congregated here on that occassion. Am
ide preparations are being made to provide :
for the comfort and enjoyment all who may
attend, and all who know John V. Scott’s
style of providing for his gnests, are aware
that he always does it to perfection.—
Come to the New Year’s ball, ra : n or shine,
and enjoy yourself hugely.
A. & E. Dobrowsky’a establishment is
ablaze w /h bright and glittering jewelry
of all descriptions, and if you want a watch
or clock that will keep good time, there is
the place where can be accommodated,
and at low prices. If you want a gun or
pistol, nr anything in the snorting line, Er
nest is the very man you want to call upon.
And if you desire a gun rifled, or anything
in the shape of brass and iron turned or
drilled, he can do that too, on the machine
which he has recently purchased and put
up in his shop in the rear of the jewelry
store.
Total raintall for December up to 8 o’-
clock A. M , 7.25 inches. Total for the
season 15.57 inches. Total for corres
ponding time last year 7.00 inches. The
records of rainfall at Grass Valley and Ne
vada shows that several more inches of rain
have fallen in that 'ocality for the month
of December, than there has at Shasta.
When the jail was broken open Sunday,
Hunter Eagle and another prisoner came
out to take the air a little, but declined to
runaway when the weather was so bad
Captain Anderson took them over to Me
Garry’s saloon and treated them to cock
tails, on account of their docility.

S. HULL.. Collector.
hewsta, Pec. 2nd, 1873.
Escaped from Jail. — Last Sunday tlie
prisoners confined in the County jail were
illowcd to come out of their cells into the
large exercise room or “corral.” At the
foot of the stairs leading from this room up
to the main hall of the Court House, is a
wooden door with lock fixtures which were
secured by staple driven through the plank
and clinched.
At about four o’clock in the afternoon
Under Sheriff Kennedy stepped across the
street for a few minutes, during which time
no one was in any of the rooms above.—
After he stej ped out, four of the prisoners,
Hayes, Clark, Thompson, and Schneider,
got a stick of fire wood and pried at the door
at the foot of the stairs until the itaple
pulled through the plank and the door flew
open. They then came up stairs, broke
open the door of the Sheriffs office, and
armed themselves, and about that time the
Under Sheriff and Mike, the cook, came
in with supper. The two were muzzled,
rushed down stairs into jail and -uaded
to keep quiet by mean» “fa ied revo!
ver pointed at them. An .x was then pro
cured from the office above, and with it,
Hayes, Clatk, and 'lhompson cut the con
necting cliai- uu their shackles, Schnei
der • t being shackled. Just after the
shackles were cut, Sheriff Hull, followed by
Assessor Osburn, entered die Court House
hall. Hull saw that the prisoners were
loose as 1 e got to the door of his office, and
he rushed inside to get arms, hut they had
been appropriated, and he turned to find
himself a helpless prisoner, with cocked
weapons, in ihe hands of determined men,
drawn on him. Osburn, who was behind
Hull, saw what was up, in time to jump in
to the Court Room, and from there he soon
dodged out into the street and gave the
alarm. Seeing that the alarm would be
sriven by Osburn, the robbers quickly left
the Court House, jumped on to Dunn’s barn
shed, slid to the ground, and broke for the
hills north of town Clark made good time
about half way up McDonald hill, where
i Billy Dunn brought him to, by firing a
couple of shots across his bow. Thompson
was overhauled and brought to parley, just
above L. Garrecht's residence, by Joseph
Pryor, who was unarmed, and Kennedy,
'coming up at this juncture, secured the
fugitive. Schn’cider got away, but was re
captured Tuesday, as stated elsewhere;
Hayes also made his escape and bis re-ar
rest is not yet reported, but Kennedy and
his assistants, are on his trail inTehama Co.,
and close upon him. Sheriff Hull and
’ the Express Company offer 8300 reward
for him. The following is the Sheriff’s de
soription of him :
Shorty Hayes is about five feet five
inches in bight, very stout or heavy built,
will weigh about 160 lbs. light complexion,
blue eyes, has a large scar across right
cheek, thin scanty beard, of about four
weeks growth, and sandy color, is an Irish
man. When he left had on a dark blue
;snck coat or Pea Jacket, nearly new, dark
pants, fine custom made boots with a small
heel, about No. sixes, wore a black bat, was
armed with an old Smith & Wesson cart
ridge loading five shooter, and bad riveted
shackles on bis legs with the connecting
chain cut; was held for Stage Robbery and
is an old cenvict.
Cube for Toothache.— An exchange
gives the following simple application for
the toothache, on the principle, if no cure
no charge fir advice :
“It any of our roadeis suffer from tooth
ache oi neuralgic affections arising from
teeth in any stage of decay, they may ex
perience relief, instantaneous and perman
ent, by saturating a small bit of clean cot
ton or wool with a strong solution of am
monia, and applying it immediately to the
affected tooth. The pleasing contrast in
stantaneously produced sometimes causes
a fit of laughter, although a moment before
extreme suffering and anguished prevailed.
I have used the remedy fur over on year,
and have obtained sufficient pi . > war
rant publication.
Senatorial. —The first vote tnVen in
the Legislature for U. S. Senator for the
long term resulted in the House as follows :
For Booth, 43; for Farley, 28; for
Shaft r, 9. Every member of the House
was present and voted. The vote in the
Senate was : For Booth, 13 ; for Fatlcy.
18; for Shafter, 13; for Pendegast (Far
ley), 1. Every Senator was present and
voted.
The first "ballot for the long term, in
joint-convention resulted in for Booth,
41 for Farley, and 21 for Shafter.
AVhcn Schneider got out of jail, he took
Under Sheriff Kennedy's Spencer rifle, and
left the prison building in advance of his
companions. Several persons observed
him slipping along the hillside above town,
in the attitude of a pot hunter seeking
game, and by this ruse he avoided detec
tion until I.e got far enough away to justi
fy him in taking to his heels.
Fred Smith’s barn, on Stillwater, was
crushed hy the weight of snow during the
late snow storm. The barn was a large one
and the loss.is considerable.

ent on this Division of the Oregon & Cal

Gold Bluff. —The Humboldt Timet
of November 15th, says : Airing the pass |
Summer a party of our citizens, consisting j
of Capt. Buhne, Messrs. Frank and Robert
Duff and Harry Rogers, gentlemen well \
known in our midst, devoted their leisure
moments to prospecting lor the ‘-filthy lu
ere” in the immediate vicinity of the once
famous Gold Bluff. The result of their
labors have proved the beach doposite of
gold to be rich, which fact becoming known
to the Go'd Bluff Sub marine Mining
Company, of New York negotiations have
been entered into by them with the
above named gentlemen for its develop
ment, Capt. I. H. .Avery, representative of
the Company, arrived by the last trip of
the Pe {cun from San Francisco, bringing
with him a 6-inch “Andrew’s Pump” and
other articles requisite to a thorough and
complete search for auriferous deposits on
the claim of Messrs. Buhne and Duff. The
pump is similar to one used for dredging
Si John’s Bar, Florida, and is capable of
bringing from the bottom the enormous
quantity of 70 tons of sand per hour. —
Should the deposit of gold prove to be as
rich as at present the parties concerned
have every reason to believe it will, we may
k rtly for great results, aud a total
itiolution of the system of beach mining,
as conducted on our coast of late years.
Immediately upon Captain A.’s arrival
he purchased the scow Eagle, which has
j been decked over, made ready for surfing
I purposes, and dubbed, as aprosos to the ob
iject for which she will be employed, tho
i Gold-U" it r, and in which, as soon as the
weather will permit, the party aceompani
ied by Mr. Harry Rodgers as engineer, take
departure for Stone's Lagoon—the place of
their intended labors, carrying with them
the best wishes of their triends and the
community at large, for their success in
the novel, and heretofore untried method
of mining. It will be sometime before ev
erything will be in perfect running order,
but when they are thoroughly established
we will endeavor to keep the public thor
oughly posted in regard to future results.
