Wo understand that 150 feet of the fire company's hose was ruined at the fire on Main street about three months ago. The intense heat had the effect, burning the rubber so that it will not stand any pressure. It may turn out that the other hose is damaged also. This ought to be looked into. It would be a pretty predicament for a fire to occur and find the town without any means of fighting it, owing to damaged hose.

The Ledger office is indebted to R.

W. Kotcham for a box of fine table grapes, for which we hereby tender our thanks. Mr. Ketcham reports that the present season he has had the finest crop of grapes ever grown in his vineyard. He does' not think the heavy rain this week will do any material damage to the fruit crop.

For a number of years he raised prunes of the best quality, and sun-dried them for market. He found that this crop did not pay so he dug up the prune trees, and planted grapes in their stead. Grapes give a better return for the money and labor invested. Di voice Granted. Mary G.

Morgan, the well-known surveyor of Sutter Creek, met with an accident last Saturday that will disable him for some time. Mr.

Morgan was surveying in the neighborhood of the Valparaiso mine when the accident occurred. It had rained and the ground was slippery, and he lost his balance and fell, breaking one of the bones in his right leg. He was taken to the Zeila mine, and Dr. Gall was sent for. When the doctor arrived he found the patient in great pain, which he soon relieved.

The leg was fixed up and Mr. Morgan was sent to his home in Sutter Creek, where he is improving rapidly. Gratefully Acknowledged. "Mr. and Mrs.

Thornton, one of the most experienced and practical miners of Amadoi- county, is in charge at prosent Of tho Shenandoah mine near Plymouth, and has recently purchased the hoisting machinery at the Tracy mine near Carson, which ho is moving to his property in Amador. Speaking of the work on the' Shenandoah mine, he said that a shaft had been sunk to a depth of 500 feet, and levels run to develop the pay shoots, and demonstrate their size and quality. From the bottom of this shaft a level 600 feet had been run to the south, and then an upraise of 400 feet connected with a shaft of 100 feet to the surface. This was all his old machinery would do. With the new hoist just purchased, which has a capacity for sinking 2500, he will at once continue this south shaft to a depth of 500 feet without a level.

By that time he considers that the mine will be in shape to pros- Fritzell Evans This gravel claim, situated on Rancheria creek, is making satisfactory progress toward the inauguration of actual mining operations. The buildings, comprising boarding house, offices, are completed, and tho mill is nearly finished. It is of the roller kind.

M. E. Church. The Rev. F.

A. Morrow has published an itemized statement of receipts and disbursements of the Jackson M. E. church during the past two years of his pastorate. From this it appears that the receipts for the first year amounted to $2562.30 and for the second year $2353.68, making a total of $4915.98 for the two years.

Of this sum $1251.80 was paid for pastor's salary during the first year, and $1584.30 the second. $641.37 was collected toward paying off the property. In fact the church and the lot adjoining, are now entirely free from debt. Rev. Mr.

Morrow has adopted the praiseworthy method in connection with his ministry of making a complete financial statement at the close of his pastorate in every charge to which he has been stationed. The reverend gentleman and Mrs. Morrow returned from conference Wednesday of last week for the purpose of settling their affairs here. They left, for their new field of labors, at Antioch, Contra Costa county, yesterday, driving their own horse and buggy as far as Stockton, and from thence proceeding by boat to their destination.

George Coad, employed as black smiith at the Gwin mine, died on Thursday, the 19th instant. The disease that caused his death is called in medical phraseology, suppurative glancoma of both eyes, due to a weakened system caused by previous illness. The eyes decayed, the disease eventually extending to vital organs.

Several doctors were called in consultation on the case, but nothing could be done to arrest the march of the malady to a fatal termination. The remains were interred in the Jackson cemetery on Saturday, under the auspices of the K. of P. Lodge, of which organization the deceased was a member. Deceased leaves a wife and two sons.

He also has a step-mother and two stepbrothers, and one sister in Canada. He was highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was insured in the New England Life Insurance Company for $1000.

The song, '-Lead Kindly Light," was sung, after which the following resolution was read and unanimously adopted: The President is dead. The murderous hand of an assassin has ruthlessly cut short the great life of William Mc- Kinley, the beloved President of the United States, at a time when, with love for all, and offense toward none, his wise counsel and strong statesmanship were being exerted in the administration of our national affairs, and in the midst of his loving countrymen, who proudly loobed upon him as the personification of all that is good, grand, and glorious of mankind. His untimely death is a fearful blow to civilization, and overwhelms the American people with an irreparable loss. Whereas, Tho people of Drytown and vicinity deeply mourns with all America this terrible affliction. We loved him for the goodness of his heart, for his lofty patriotism, and for the abilities continuously manifested by him in the discharge of the arduous and complicated duties of his exalted station.

Resolved, That we, the citizens of Drytown and vicinity, do hereby give expression to our heartfelt grief at the dreadful calamity that has overtaken the nation in the tragic death of so great and so good a man. As a citizen we honored him, as a patriot we followed him, and now, as true American people, we mourn him. Resolved, That we here record our sorrow and grief, and express our conviction that the name of William Mc- Kinley will ever live in the hearts of his people. And to the bereaved widow we extend our deepest heartfelt sympathy, and we hope that she will bear her sorrowful bereavement with the courage and fortitude which have ever distinguished her, and which made her the support and helpmate of her illustrious husband.

Martin Juka had a remarkable escape from death last Monday, while working in the Oneida mine. He was employed at the 1800 level, when a mass of rock, estimated at thirty tons, fell, completely covering him up.

The large rocks fell in such a manner as to protect him from the full force of the falling debris. It took three or four men fully an hour to liberate him. He was severely bruised about the head, back and hands, but escaped without serious injury. No bones were broken. He was removed to his boarding house at his relative's, John Juka, where he is doing nicely, and expects to be able to return to work in a week or two.

He is 18 years of age. Two Trains on lone Hoad. We are informed that Hon. E. C.

Voorheis this week received a letter from President Hays, of the Southern Pacific, that tho company contemplates in the near future putting on two passenger' trains daily between lone and Gait, similar to the service on the Valley Spring road. This will be a great convenience to the people of Araador county, as it is probable that arrangements will be made by which passengers by this late train will be able to reach San Francisco the same day.
