Dissection of N BlOnde-A Brief BIZ
Ography of Lydia Thompson.

A London correspondent of the Chic
ago journal has been so ungallant as to
give that paper brief chapter concern
ing the fair one with golden locks who
has been disporting in burlesque through
out the length and breadth of the country
symbolized by the American eagle, 1t
was cruel of him, and will cause many a
spoony and sensual admirer of this old
dancing girl to sigh as he reads the
solemn prose which teaches him the sad
lesson Of disenchantment. Hear him,
the unpoetic wretch: -as
Well, your Lydia Thompson emeute
has afforded amusement TO us simple
Londoners. | confess | did not antici-
pate quite such an ending to the career
of the blonde troupe when they set out on
their American mission. Miss Lydia
Thompson, as she chooses to call herself,
though she has been married and un-
married more times than l think even
she can remember, had run the length
of her tether in this country before she
left it. / supposed she would succeed
for a time in the Eastern cities, and felt
sure that that time would be very brief
one. We have often had the most ex-
aggerated accounts of her American tri-
umphs, which we were able to accept at
their full value. 1t is rather difficult to
determine her present American position,
but it is quite safe to say that she will
find no place when she returns to Eng
land. Her day here is over, such as it
was, and some of her American admirers
will perhaps be surprised to learn that
she never held here any position above
that of second or third-rate ddRseuse."

Terrible ARRAY.

The Trinity california; Journal OF
March 26th, tells the following
Last Sunday, two men known as Nor
wegian Pete and Dutch John, were at
Hayfork, and that evening were drink
ing and playing cards. During the eve
ming some one slapped Pete in the face;
Pete and John were old friends and had
been partners. Pete says: " John, you
saw me slapped, and did not take my
part; you are a coward, and | dare you
to fight me" Pete went out and John
followed. Shortly John came back, and
soon after Pete came in and desired to
make up. After taking a drink. they
went to Carters barn to sleep. About
an hour afterwards, b. +. Trask, hearing
a noise. went TO the barn and found them
engaged in deadly combat with knives.
Pete was cut horribly in the neck, and
did not live five minutes after 1rask
went in. John was aBfully cut up-one
wound seeming like he had deem stabbed
over the heart to the length Of the blade,
and the knife wrenched around in the
cut. He died the next day at hali-past
nine o clock. The scene Of this terrible
contest is said TO present horrible ap-
pearance, the hay being smeared with
blood. The weapons used were ordi-
nary, sheath knives, Norwegian Pete
died A with a smile on his conntenance,
holding his knife in the attitude of
making blow. Lookers-on say it was
pitifnl sight.
