THE CALDWELL HOMICIDE otanoy,
who killed Caldwell at Glendale, on
Sunday, has been admitted to bail on
the recognizance of $4,000. 1t appear
ed from the evidence, ON trial, that
Caldwell came to Stanby's place on
Sunday with a party among whom was
a man who sold Stauby II COW for SEQ
that was worthless. Stanby complained
of the swindle and demanded back his
money which he had given for the ami
NAL. Then there was some Jaw be-
tween the parties, when Stanby made a
break ut the dairyman with n chair, and
in the sweep of his weapon he missed
the dairyman and struck Caldwell. The
blow was taken in good part Of temper,
however, as an accident, and all the
party were called up to drink. Then
the party composed of FIVE or six men
left Stanby's, but returned in u short
time and called for another drink.
When about to drink, Caldwell remark
ed, addressing Stanby: 81 reckon you
want a Cd id good threshing."
"Well, if do" replied Stanby, "you
are not the man to give 1t to to me-
Stauby then said he must 60 and
see about his dinner; and left the party
in the bar-room. The men stood about
for n few minutes, aud then ''went off,"
got into u wagon aud drove up to the
tavern again. 1t is testified by one OF
the party, we are Informed, that Cald-
well remarked: ''Let us go back and
give that man. II thrashing.' When
they jumped out of the Wagon, Caldwell
ran into the bsr-room, and at once
knocked Stanby down, behind his bar,
and on the mans rising knocked him
down again asd kicked him while down.
Others rushing in to take Caldwell
away, he fell on Stanby, to beat him
with his fists. They closed with each
other, and were raised from the floor
together, clasped in each others arms.
As they were being raised, the flash ola
knife Was seen in Stanby's right hand,
He had reached round Caldwell and
stabbed him in the back, and as soon as
they stood upright and were parted he
stabbed him Again in front. Caldwell
walked to the door and fell dead. We
are informed that Riff Williams saw the
fight, and testified before the Coroner's
Jury in relation to il. He testified that
Stanby did his work like II mechanic,
and he would have lone the same il he
had been in his place" One man liv-
ing in Glendale, named Weston, cried
out Hang him - after the killing and
that is said to be all the foundation for
a Lynch law sensational report.
MINERAL SPRINGs.-It is not as general
IL known, as it should be, that there are
warm springs in this State which pos
sess extraordinary restorative and heal
ing properties equal toany in the world.
We are personally cognizant Of several
cases, where patients were almost
dead with intiamatory aud chronic
rheumatism, and who Were entirely
cured in a short time 1T these springs.
We speak particularly Of the springs on
Walker river valley, about thirty miles
from Dayton. Two cases for instance,
have recently come under u observa-
ton. John 5. Mayhugh, late Assem-
blyman from Esmeralda, was sorely AT
iicted with rheumatism. He went to
the Walker river springs, and in less
than u week he began to feel entirely
different, and in another week all ms
rheumatic pains had concentrated into
his right foot, and in a short time had
almost entirely left him. We saw him
in Gold Hill the other day, aud he walk
ed as sprightly as ever-besides he look
ed healthy, fat, and could take his "reg-
ular hash" the same as ever. He has a
good opinion Of the Springs. While
Mayhugh was there, Judge Hayden,
of Lyon county, was brought over. The
Judge has been very ill for several
months, and at one time IT was feared
he would die. He was very Ill, ana
could scarcely endure the trip to the
springs; and on arriving there, he was
so Frustrated and enfeebled that 1t re-
ouired two men to lift him into the
bath. A few days application OF these
curative waters acted like n charm, and
at this present writing he is pronounced
almost entirely cured. On Saturday
next he will commence II term of the
District Court Of Lyon county. The
warm Springs are wonderful, n a
great blessing to invalids who wish to
be cured.
FAST SIxSISG.-The shaft in the south
works of the Yellow Jacket mine is be-
ing sunk ut the rate of six feet per day,
and the excsvating is as easy u. the
present time as could be asked for. The
depth for a new level will be attained
within twenty days, u. far,hest. The
new boilers will be put in use during
the present week. The engineers are
now putting on the finishing touches.
