THE EVENING NEWS.

shot or a bludgeon, by two scounorelS, on
C street. just beyond the Junction House,
and robbed OF gold watch. The robbers
stealthily approached the man and felled
him to the earth !; and as he was falling he
halloed murder, which alarm gave the
robbers but short time to get his effects.
He had on his person about fifty dollars
in cash which the scamps did not get.
The man was quite severely injured about
the head, one side of which is quite dis
colored and bruised, and bled very severe
". The citizens of Gold Hill will take
warning and not travel on the Divide late
at nights, unless fully armed. These rob-
benes have commenced Just the way they
happened year ago. We hope police
men will look to the Divide.
ANOTHER SHooTISG.-This afternoon
at o'clock pistol shot was heard, which
proved to come from the saloon of Bonie
s Co., at the corner of D and Union
streets. From what we could learn, 1t
seems that man named Alex. Hitchcock
went into the saloon to take drink, and
got to wrangling with the barkeeper, who
went behind the bar, and Hitchcock told
him not to go after anything, at the same
time drawing pistol, which went OH, and
the ball entered the ceiling. The name OF
the barkeeper is Patsey Burney. Marshal
Cook was promptly on hand and arrested
Hitchcock, who is not considered much IN
fault by the witnesses present.

R. Sutterley, of the welf-known firm OF

A CONFERENCE.-The line of omni-
buses between Virginia and Gold Hill are
a convenience to the whole community,
and we hope are well patronlzed. Those
chiefs of the whip, the Brown Brothers,
are not to be surpassed for care or accom-
modating kindness, and the only accident
that has ever happened on the line was
caused BY widows bright eyes gazing at
Browns so intently as to cause him to let
fall box of apples, which unfortunately
" busted; :" but Brown wasn't in fault, for
that set of eyes would make frmer man
than Brown weaken.
CRUEL SPoRr.-Last evening large
crowd of men assembled to see two dogs
fight, upon which had been staked large
amount of money, and about which more
talk has been had on the street than
hundred foot ledge struck in MY Own
Mary Ann" would have caused. The
dogs, drawer than the cruel men around,
fought ferociously for ten minutes, and
were separated. Such spectacles are not
of a very heightened character, and don't
speak well for the humanity of those who
enjoy such disgusting sights.
