JULIA BuIrrr.,s Muaprssn.-I. will

Martha Camp, Of Virginia, complained
of finding an armed man under her bed
discovering him in time to give ar
alarm, which saved her life and caused
his flight. At the time this account o.
Martha Camps was published, the
Enterprise, in q characteristic manner,
threw discredit upon the woman's story
Subsequently, Martha identified the man
whom she had found under her bed
meeting him il the street; and the Re.
corder unhesitatingly believed her evi.
dence, not allowing that the Enterprtit
could impeach any PERSONS character.
Dogrett was not sven sworn in the case.
The man identified by Martha Camp,
named John Millen, WAS held by the Re-
corder in the sum Of 81, 900 to answer to
a charge to attempt to commit burglary,
The Grand Jury, also, believed the wo-
man, and Notwithstanding the attempt
of the Enterprise to blacken her charac-
ter, they found q true bill against the
P~renchman, John ,Millen. About a
month ago, Millen sold to Mr..
and Mrs. Cazentre, Of this town,
q rich dress pattern, for forty dollars.
Mrs. Cazentre, before buying, asked
Milleu how he came by 30 ine a pattern.
He replied that he was disposiug Of it
for u lady whose husband was killed in
the Ophir mine, but who was in straight
eued circumstances, and desired to sell
it. She then asked him how SO poor a
person CHANGED to have so rich q pat
tern. He Informed her that the lady's
husband, while living, had spent all he
had earned in buying his wife rich
dresses, and at the time Of his death
left her destitute. Day before yester-
day morning, after the usual breakfast
hour, she took the pattern to cut the
dress; but, just a. she had begun, four
gentlemen came in for breakfast, dur
ing the preparation for which the con-
v~ersa,iou turned upon the murder Of
julie Bulet,e, and one Of the party men
toned the loss Of two silk dress patterns
among other property stolen from the
murdered The thought ct
once amt to Mrs. Cazentre'S mind that
the pattern she had purchased might be
one of them. She At once went TO Nir-
GINA aud made known 10 Judge Pitzer
the facts, rs stated. After Rosener L
Co. had identified the dress pattern,
Judge Pi,zer and the lady went TO the
Couuty Jail, where she at once recog-
rized Millen as the man who sold II to
her husband. A valuable diamond pin
was found to have been sold to Mr.. Sye,
and the pin was identified as one seen
in the possession Of the murdered wo-
man. There were also some other ar
ticle. found which belonged to q Miss
Annie Smith Of Carson City, and which
she had given TO julie Bulette that she
might get them repaired. Captain
Dowuey visited Carson yesterday after
loon and Annie Smith at once recog-
nized the articles shown her "a those
entrusted to the care Of the murdered
woman. Chief Edrsrdslss evening sue
ceeded in finding the trunk Of John Mil
lea, which he had left with a Frenchman
who keeps II bakery on North D st. The
trunk upon being opened was found to
be filled with articles taken from the
house Of the murdered woman The
following is H list Of articles found IN
the trunk, one pair large coral ear drops,
one je, set, cross, brsastpin and ear
drops, long gold guard chain with min
iature, scissors, thimble and needle case,
all Of gold, attached "a charms one set
of eramsled sleeve buttons, a~silrer brick
with the name Julia engraved upon

fast cape trimmed with white down,

When Chief Edwards showed Millen a
number Of the articles above mentioned
he confessed that he was the murderer
of julie Bulette. He said he wanted TO
be hung As soon q, possible that be did
not wish to live any longer. To Martha
and Mrs. Cszeptre, the commu-
nifty are principally indebted for the de-
Of this horrid murderer. We be-
lieye there was q reward offered for his
detection and conviction. Great credit
is also due George Downey.
A FIRn.-About 10 o'clock last night
a FIRE broke out in q frame building on
South B street, Virginia, in the rear Of
the Tahoe House, and adjoining, on the
south, the lodging house Of Mrs. How
lett. The house in which the FIRE origl-
mated Was as good as totally destroyed.
Mrs. Howlett's lodging house was gut
ted and the south half of tho roof burned
of. Three small frame buildings south
were left in a total wreck. The greater
par, Of the furniture in the buildings
south Of Mrs. Howlett's WAS carried out
and saved, but somewhat damaged in
the removal. Several Of Mrs. Howlett'B
dodgers lost all their rooms contained.
The FIRE was undoubtedly the work Of
an incendiary, as tho house in which it
originated was unoccupied. An unsuc-
cessful attempt VAS made about two
weeks ago to burn Mrs. Howlett's build
ing. The loss by the FIRE wsI between
four and FIVE thousand dollars. In the
excitement Of running to the FIRE, a
miner, by the name Of Lupton, acct
den,ally tripped and fell head first over
the high bank near the Gould & Curry
dump, on B street, some fifteen feet.
He sustained no injury other than get
ting somewhat scratched about the nose
aud forehead.
G. A. R.-In full response to many
inquiries concerning the organization,
known as the Grand Army Of the Re-
public, we make the following quota
tiou from a recent letter in 4 San Fran
cisco paper: 1.-The Grand Army Of the
Republic, as its name implies, is not
composed OF ~privases and non-commis-
stoned officers" only. Every soldier OF
Of the Army or sailor Of the Navy OF the
United States, who is in the service now
or who has received therefrom honora-
BILE discharge, is eligible to membership.
This includes commissioned officers, as
well a. enlisted Many Of the
p~roninent Generals ofthe Eastern States
are Department Commanders; and Ma
ior-General S. A. Hurlburt, Of Illinois,
is the Grand Commander of the United
States. General Ulyssus Grant is a pri-
yate member Of the organization.
