Gold Hill daily news. [volume] (Gold Hill, N.T. [Nev.]) 1863-1882, 1867-04-04
THE EVENING NEWS.


seems there vas a friend Of his who was
addicted to the use Of too much iutoxi-
eating liquors when an opportunity pre-
scented. He had used his endeayors to
prevent any liquor being taken to the
house. A fellow, called Charlie, took
to the house the forbidden beverage;
the young man went in and destroyed
it, and drove out the intruder and shut
the door. At this juncture, a little Jew,
named Cohen, who was arrested . short
time since for larceny, rushed against
the door and broke it in; he was driven
out. After everything became quiet, he
started home, and as he passed a saloon
he stepped in and found Cohen, who at
once began TO shoot At him, firing W
shots and swapping the pistol a third
time. He was at this point, seized by
three other men, one catching him by
the whiskers and placing his hand over
his mouth TO prevent his halloing; the
other two held his arms, while Cohen
proceeded TO pound hin in the face with
his pistol. Here, a man who lives in
Six-Mile Canon, sprang in and caught
Cohen, and dashed him TO the floor, and
took the pistol from him, but uufor-
tunately, let him get up and go out at
the back door. The officers were o
on the ground, but were unable to find
the ~abscoudiug Cohen. We understand
that he enters no complaint against any
Of them, preferring to settle the matter
himself. We have known him for y long
time, and know him to be a peaceable,
quiet, good citizen, always minding his
own business, and never meddling with
any one else. What the result of the
matter Will be, is difficult to conjecture.
He had an ugly cash cut on his cheek,
by II blow from the pistol. Neither OF
the shots took effect, and the only
wound was from the blow in his face.
The Poor DoGS.-We guess that some
of the people about Gold Hill have been
missing their dogs for several days past,
and wondering where they had gone.
On the first of April the Dog Ordinance
went into effect, and all dogs running
at large without 4 tag-(copper joker
size of two bits; figures representing
the year 1867; letters G. H.; meaning,
corporation OF Gold Hill)-which re-
quires a financial investment Of five dol
lars in g~reenbacks. Poor Dog Tray; If
have missed him from home, he
can be found in the high-fence enclosure
back of the Station-house, where he is
boarding At the Pound and Lick House.
He will be glad to have you bail him
ont. Better see about IL soon, as he has
been crying to see you. Poor fellow
he is indeed a poor and forlorn dog who
has no friends.
TgAMISG.-During the past four years
we do not remember Of seeing more
quartz teams engaged in hauling away
ore from the dumps in Gold Hill and
Virginia, than at the present time. In
upper Gold Hill, this morning, the street
was completely damned with teams, and
a train Of wagons extended 10 Virginia,
and AS far down toward Silver City as
we could see, while both the American
Flat and 0phir Grades were lined with
teams. Nearly all the teams now are
making loads both ways, taking quartz
to the mills at Dayton, Empire, Carson
and Washoe, and returning with wood.
Has ARRIvEp.-Mr. John H. Mundall,
late one Of the publishers Of the NEWS,
arrived here this morning, BY the Dom
ner Lake route from Sacramento. Mr..
Mundall left Gold Hill about a year ago,
on a visit 10 Pennsylvania and Massa-
chusetts, and comes back fully satisfied
that Washoe is not the worst place in
Neutrality-suspicious. in point of business,
money-making, health, climate, or COM
Portable living. he intends remaining
here, and will help 10 run the News.
STARTED Observation-Disclosures i VIE
gand, Assayers of Gold Hill, have gone
into the brick business to-day, they
moulded twenty for n starter. They
seem to think it will pay. The mortar
from which their bricks are made, is
taken from the Comstock ledge, and is
ground up in the mills Of Gold Hill,
Silver City, Empire, Dayton and Washoe.
They design going into the business on
AN extensive scale in a few days.
IfSET.-lulS ~ Albb a. w NSN
down through Gold Hill, and when just
opposite the Imperial dump, our atten-
ton was attracted by an enormous
quartz wagon while being turned around
caught on a lock, and before the team
could be stopped the wagon went over.
Two pair Of mules were at once hitched
on and the wagon righted up without
any damage having been done.
MAN INJURED. - \ man generally
known as Big Chris was severely bruised
and jammed yesterday on the Divide by
being caught between two wagons. 1t
seems that the ''back action" had been
u%ncoupled for some purpose, and in at
tempting to attach it again to the front
wagon, Chris was caught between them
and badly injured.
PIcroRIALs AND MAGAzISEs.-BGgle,
the popular n~ews-dealer, PoStofice,
Virginia, has just received Harper's
Magazine for April, and Godey's Lady's
Book for April-both beautifully Illus
trated, and filed with entertaining and
instructive reading. Also, Frank Les
lies, Haapers, and the Literary Album,
Illustrated Weekly Newspapers.
IKE WEArHER.-We verify believe
that Spring has at last come. A more
lovely day, than to-day, never was seen.
Not hot, yet warm and pleasant. The
people of Nevada are now capable OF
enjoying good weather, having seen SO
much bad.
CHEAP FURNITURE. = Schoenfeld &
Bro. are selling their furniture, carpet
ing and furnishing goods at a very low
figure in order to make room for the
Spring stock that is on the road. IL is
a good place to find a good and cheap
article.
SurrERLY.-Col. Sutterly, since the
weather has cleared, is taking some
.rcellent mixtures, Any one wishing an
