Woman's view of Hobson and rattlesnake advice column
A fragmented column mixed with social commentary discusses Lt Hobson's duties after the Merrimac episode in Hong Kong and San Francisco celebrations for California soldiers. It humorously covers rattlesnake handling by a man named Davis, then shifts to a reflective poem about sunrise and a future wait, ending with a note on Manila newspaper offerings and Oakland's plan to train servants.

Mining Deal Promises Growth for De La Mar District
Thomas F. Walker, longtime De La Mar mill engineer, has promoted a major mining deal that links Bridgeport capitalists Frank Miller Osborne and McNamara with the Matilda group north of the De La Mar mine. The Eastern company pledges ten thousand dollars cash for immediate use, with Ren Miller and C. Oldorf from Denver joining as agents and experts. The project aims to open more ore and push development across the De La Mar district, as a crew of about fifteen works under a growing plan to meet rising demand. Local labor will supply the current needs, and the De La Mar Lode notes expected gains and potential dividends as the mill restarts at higher capacity.
