Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1867-10-10

remember the sad accident which oc-
Cured on Monday a week ago, at the
Chollar-Potos mine, by which Pntrick
Tracy was wounded by being caught in
a wiuze, while helping to lower a heavy
piece of iron, weighing between n and
two tons, and known as II plunger.'
The poor fellow is dead, having depart
ed this life at about the hour of . O'Clock
this morning, at the hospital Of st. Vim
cent de Paul, Virginia City. Dr. Hitler,
his physician, informs us that his patient
had been doing well apparently, for the
last eight or nine days, and that the
terrible wound in the right hip, from
which a great deal Of flesh has been re-
moved because of its unhealthiness'
and early this morning, the patient, De-
inc FESTIVE and sore-backed, attempted,
with his own strength n aoiiity' 20
turn himself in bed, aud ruptureu tue
,acrai artery and bled to death. pr'
Hitler was called at 5 o'clock this MORN
and ut once discovered the hemor-
are.w which was easily stopped externally.
But the blood found its way INSIDE tue
flesh. Last night there was evidently u
martial paralysis-the indication oil II
necessary resort to the catheter at once
telling the physician that the patient
would not survive long. The marvei Is
that the man has lived such a length OF
time since his fearful mangling. The
unfortunate man had the very best OF
attention at the new Hospital.
THE FAIR.-The Fair for St. Mary's
Church, Virginia, is still open at Ar
mory Hall, on B street. Last night
there was u goodly attendance from
Gold Hill, as well as from Virginia.
The articles for sale are mostly Of the
domestically useful. There are suits
of clothing for little children, which are
thoroughly made, and are sold cheap.
The table of Miss Susan Carrol,-the
girl whose testimony was the means OF
acquitting the men accused OF killing
C. A. B. Hills supplied with very
superior articles of sewing-handiwork.
Miss Carol being u first class seam
stress, and having made or superinten-
ded the making of all the articles OF
children's clothing she offers for sale,
the opportunity for purchasing excel
lent goods OF this kind is presented at
her table. The table of Miss Bradley
and Miss Newman is a Z" sight" for a
Z. mother of u household" OF an old
bachelor. From u single young mans
pin-cushion and needle-book up to u
ten-year old girls dress,-you buy
here. The refreshments cannot be too
highly commended. They are good IN
kind, there is u variety, and patrous are
conveniently seated. Mrs. j. &. CLARK
and Mrs. Bonuiface are evidently de-
signed by Providence for popular cater
ers on such occasions. The people
should bear in mind that this Fair is to
clear the debt on St. Mary's Church
the pioneer Christian Church IN TINS
State. During the remaining evenings
of the week, we hope there will be an
attendance and patronage that Will MAKE
the desired liquidation sure.
OLD SrAGEs.-M More of 'em coming
over the mountains, via the Placerville
for repairs, etc. Wells, Fargo &
Co., mex, year, when the railroad is
completed TO the foot OF the eastern
slope of the S~ierras, expect to run three
and perhaps four Overland coaches-as
they then look for a large Overland
So they must have n large
number Of relief coaches, at starting
points and distributed along the route.
Before this day next year Overland stag.
ing will be reduced within a week oil
staging time. Then many will take the
trip.
The SuIcrDg.-The man who commit
ted suicide yesterday, in the rear OF the
ST. Louis Brewery, Virginia City, was
named Martin Alhof, aged about forty
wears, and q resident of Coloma, Cali
fornia, where he leaves n wife and two
children, and a good property. : he was
evidently crazy, caused by the
of the seizure of his load of wines n
liquors for nou-payment of the Federal
stamp duties.
McCLusKEY's MELopEoN TROUPE gave
AN entertainment at the Carson Theatre
last night to a full house. These really
excellent performers will appear IN
Washoe this evening. Inability to at
tend at the theatre last evening prevents
their receiving q more extended n
particular notice from us. We trust
they may soon return to Carson.-Cdr-
son appeal.
