DEATH OF W. II. c. GRIrrrrH.-we regret
to announce the death of our young towns
man, W. II. G. Griffith. Tho circumstances
causing his death were about rs follows: Mr..
Griffith left Mountain City in Cope district,
where he has been residing for about three
months. in company with four Others for Muir
nay district, eight miles from Mountain City,
on the Goth ult. The storm set in with great
severity and the parties were compelled to
lay out over night. Griffith and his compan-
ion had but one blanket to cover both. Grif
fith's feet were badly frozen. so badly that he
was unable TO move them, and his companions
were compelled to seek assistance in order to
get him back to town. The snow was deep
and the storm ragged frightfully. Eight men
started out and brought him into camp, but
the effect Of the exposure brought on severe
attack Of pneumonia, which caused his death
in spite Of everything that medical skill and
kind attendance could do to prevent or stay
the disease. Griffith was well known in Elko,
and had a host of warm friends. He had
charge of Colonel Delivers bridge just below
town during the past Summer, and was great
favoritc with the travelling public.

RAILROAD AccrDEsT.-on Saturday last an
accident occurred on the Union Pacific rail-
road near Wasassb, resulting in the death of
four persons, and the seriously injuring of
several others. The most distinct informa-
ton that we can gather from the occurrence is,
that the traiR being behind time an effort
was made to make it up, and at the time of
the accident WINS running round curve
under good speed, when the hind car was
switched off from the track, dragging five
other cars with It. Each oar was capsized
and rolled down an embankment some dis

A Man PERIsHEs AND IS EATEN ny CoIoTEs.
On the 30th day Of last month, Dick Tresas-
kis had occasion to send an OK team from Wy
oming district to the main Elko and Cope
road, for supplies. After starting out, one Of
the severeSt storms that has swept over the
country for years came mp with terrible yio-
lence and must have so bewIldered the driver
that he sank down and persisted from cold.
The team not arriving next day, search was
instituted, when the cattle were discovered in
the snow, frozen to death. Some little dis.
lance from the team the bones of n human I've.
ing were found, which were identified as being
the remains Of the teumster by boot found
in the vicinity. The teamster, whose name
We We're unable to learn, had evidently left
the wagon, hoping TO reach n station, which
lie knew could not be far distant, hut found it
impossible to face The terrible storm, and per-
ishvd on the spot. II is supposed that the
wolves dsvUured the body, as the bones found
were stripped Of the flesh and scattered i'll all
