Dec. 22.1 Mrs. Chas. Foss is dangerously sick. Wm.

Krumdick, who was shot at Middletown a few days ago, is improving. Jim Davis, who attempted to kill him, has not yet been found. Mrs. S. F.

Sherwood is passing the holiday season at the home ot her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Johu Cyrus. E. H.

L. Smith is mining near Butte City, Montana, and is said to be meeting with very good success, C. Sinkwitz and Mrs. Marsh, who recently left Calistoga, have been i married, and are located at Haywards, Alameda county, where she is making preparations to open a mil- liDery store. Yesterday morning papers were served on Lou Marshal, a cyprian known among the boys as Baby Lon, for keeping a disorderly resort on First street.

The trial, by jury, takes place to-day. At a recent meeting of St. Helena Winegrowers, Mr, Krug said that in pruning Johanuesberg and Fianken Keishng vines, if consideiable wood was leit the crop of grapes would be greatly increased. By doing so last season he obtained the first good crop he had had from these vines. By pruning iu this manner, Mr.

Ewer said he bad obtained ten tons from the acre. Mr. Crabb said such course would increase the yield, but that a continuauce would finally injure the vines, though in case they were found to be failiug, shorter pruning could be done. BEAUTIFUL The fcirantlag of Urease. Thirty-four out of tBe thirty-seven petitions for liquor licenses were granted Monday.

Under the ordinance regulating this business, aDy person desiring to engage in the Bale of malt or spirituous liquors is required to petition the City Trustees for a license, and to accompany that petition with a certificate, signed by five respectable citizens residing or doiDg business in the immediate vicinity of the. place where said business is proposed to be carried on. Such petitions may be referred to a committee of not less than two members of the Board and the City Marshall for investigation as to the moral character ot the applicant. Notwithstanding the fact that the certificate, duly signed by five respectable citizens, vouches for the applicant as being of good moral character and a sober and suitable person to conduct and carry on such business, the investigation provided for does not always sustaiu the statements of the certificate. This makes embarrassing (fork for the City Trustees who should have the suppoit of all respectable citizens in regulating a business that is recognized by the law as legitimate.

We may hereafter find room to publish the names accompanying the certificates of the respective applicants. The amo of license exacted of dealers in liquors in the City of Napa varies according to quantity sold. Those making sales of $5,000 or more a month pay $20 per month; $2,500 or more, $15 per mouth; less than $2,500, five dollars per month. Thus far dealers here have been coufined to tho $5 per mouth class. i Jh jirifp ock i ifoinsi fnM.

I nut Ulntarber Arrested, For some time past a crowd of hoodlums have every evening at tempted To break up the meetings of the Salvation Army at their barracks ou the corner of First and Coombs streets. The crowd have until recently been content with yelliDg, catcalling and raising a general disturbance in the meeting, but finally they have worked up to a point where the throwing of decayed vegetables, stones and rotten eggs is indulged in. Officers have been repeatedly called to keep order and while they were present all would be serene, but let them retire and the trouble would again begin. Tuesday evng the boys were caught in the act and three of them were arrested and lodged iu jail. Several others were identified and will lie arrested on a repetition of the offensive conduct.

The boys arrested are little fellows who have followed the evil example and counsel of older heads. In fact it has been reported to us that full grown men have offered to buy the eggs if some one else would use them against these street preaebeis. This we are loth to believe, however, and prefer to think that no citizen worthy the name would thus encourage disorder or infringe upon the rights of others. In this connection we are permitted to say that the city authorities have determined hereafter to enforce the law, let the chips fly where they may. There is an ordinance on the books, which will also be faithfully enforced, declaring it to be unlawful for any minor child under 18 years of age, to loiter about or play upon any public place, alley or street, at this season of the year, after 8 oclock p.

and parents and guardians who would not have their children lodged in jail, will do well to see that this ordinance is not in future violated. l.est on the Mountain. Wednesday two venerable residents of Napa, Messrs. Connelly and Frierson, climbed, for recreation and outdoor exercise, Mount George, east of town. Later in the day they lost their bearings and while looking for a path out of the ilderness were completely covered in by a dense fog.

Finding it useless to make their uncertain wav farther they lighted a fire and settled down for the night, making the best of their unhappy situation, without overcoats or blankets, until morning, when more dead than auve they came marching home. Mr. H. F. Norris made a search for the missing conple in the vicinity of the mountain late in the nightbut thejfog prevented his seeing their fire, though it was quite near the Berryesssa road.

C. Holmes and J. Luce viewed the proposed railroad line between Healdsburg and Calis-toga. He says: We were highly encouraged by the feasibility of the route and its extreme shortness. We found tfee people along tLo line of the proposed road very sanguine and enthusiastic over the subject.

Nature has done much for this section of the country; a more beautiful an 1 romantic route could not be chosen. Down the canyon of the river we found an easy, practical route an easy grade and but one abort tunnel. The entire distance to Calistoga by this routers less than seventeen miles. That this route will be followed and the road constructed is, in the future, certain. Mbs.

This celebrated humorist, in a well-written article in a recent number of the Funny South, published in Atlanta, says: Everywhere I go I hear of unad-vertiped and remarkable cures effected by Hwifts Specific, and this is compelled to be the experience of every man who travels and talks. For example, I was going in a buggy to town (Henoia) a few mghts ago with Mr. John the conversation turned to the possibility of curing cancers.

They can be cured, said he. I cured one a genuine, well developed, loug standing cancer and it's been well seveial years, aDd the former victim is stout and healthy." How did you cure it? I asked. I cured it with 8. S. Did yon inform Hwift of the cure Why, no; whats the use? Swift knows his medicine will cure cancers.

WEAK LUNGS MADE STRONG. Persons who stay in-doors all the time and lean over a counter or a desk, sooner or )ter discover tbat their lungs are giving out. Editors are often thus afflicted. Eras-tus II. Sutherland, editor of The Fasiern Stole Jnurn White Plains, New York, writes "I have used Aluwr'h Porous Plasteus in my family since lHS-s.

In that year I had an attack of pneumonia from which I was not expected to recover. My lungs were left in a very weak state. I commenced using Ai.lcook's Porous Plastvr.r. wearing them constantly three months, two on the breast and two on the back. The result was surprising, at least to me.

At this session a report was received from the Com-mandant of the Home stating that there are at present 141 inmates iu the buildings, nine of whom are sick, aud that the cottage which is being erected by the Twentieth National Encampment Committee is rapidly approaching completion.

Secretary Wadham reported that he had received a check for $505.50 from the administrator of the estate of T. H. Ilill. who left a bequest for that amouut to the Veterans Home. A communication was leeeived from Lincoln Post, which informed the Board that the Post had appointed W.

Ryan, James Kip aud H. Fenc as a committee to assist in the investigation of the charges against the Commandant of the Home. Ou motion of Director Walsh the report of the committee appointed to examine into the charges against comrade Bowen, regarding the alleged receiving of bribes to mlluence voters at the last election, was postponed till the next meeting. Director McLaughlin of the Building and Grounds Committee reported that there was difference of opinion between himself and Director Mc-Grew, the latter refusing to give his sanctiou to the removal of certain buildings at the Home. He stated that he hail ordered contractor Boss to remove the buildings, and although the Board had sustained his action, Director McGrew had given an opposite order, and the contractor was undecided how to act.

Director McLaughlin stated that the other members of the committee never attended any meetings and all the'woik devolved on him, and spoke of being constantly obstructed. Direct Taylor said that he had noticed for some time a want of cordiality on the part of some of the Directors, and that there existed systematic obstruction in several of the committees. Director Burnett suggested to cut the Gordian knot of the difficulty by the Board ordering the contractor to remove the large building, and that the removal of the smaller buildings be left to the discretion of the acting members of the Building and Grounds Committee, which was done. Bheppard Brothers presented a plan lor the construction of several tanks, with which to Hush the sewers at the Home, and the matter being referred to the Buildiug and Grounds Committee, the Board adjourned.

Considerable teal estate has changed liamls in Chiles valley recently. A. Antenrrieth, an old friend of Prof. Husmaun, from Missouri, has purchased of J. Booth 444 acres, 100 of which are in vines, and on which are good improvements, for $7,000.

Mr. has returned to JMis-souri for his family and will take possession of his new home at once. Of the C. A. Booth place, in the same valley, Mr.
