Jack Stevens Dead.- On Thursday Jack Stevens an old and well known resident of
Gold Hill died from a severe attack of pneumonia.  The deceased was a native of
Cornwall, England, and was known and appreciated as a whole-souled, generous
man.  When he first came to this country he followed the vocation of a miner
until an accident many years ago robbed him of his right hand.  Some 20 years
ago he came to Gold Hill where he engaged in the saloon business, a vocation he
has followed since that time.  Physically he was almost a giant and one of the
last men to be selected as a victim of pneumonia.  Old Jack will be missed from
his daily haunts and a hoist of warm friends will deplore his untimely death. 
His funeral will take place-to-day under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias,
of which he was a devoted member.
