CAUGHT AT lr.-About 81 o'clock
last evening quite q little excitement
was created on Main street, Gold Hill,
In front of the Yellow Jacket office,
by \ drunken Indian trying to kill his
brother with q knife. He slashed
away at him desperately, but the
brother, being sober, managed to elude
the blows. Constable Harkin hurried
down there, and on inquiring what the
fuss was about, the brother replied, In
good square English: "Well, you see,
the fact of 1t Is, he tried to butcher
me-" Harkin thought it unsafe to
leave that drunken Indian to run loose,
30 he took him to the calaboose and
kept him till he got sober, when lie
turned him out again. Determined to
find out who sells liquor to Indians,
officer Newhouse went with the brother
of the drunken Piute up to Virginia,
where he said he bought it. Upon
consultation with Chief Downey, he sent
officer Morrow with Newhouse and the
Indian, who conducted them to killeen's
saloon, on South G street. The officers
waited and watched outside while the
Indian went In. They saw Ward, the
barkesper, fill = bottle Of whisky,
which the Indian paid for and brought
out to them, when they at once entered
and arrested Ward. He has his trial
before Justice Putnam, Of Gold Hill,
to-day.
INDIAN KILLED At DAyroN-AN-
OTHER RESULT OF SELLING WHISKY
TO INDIANS. = Captain Charley. the
well known Piute chieftain, called at
our Office at noon to-day and told us
about an Indian being killed, at or
close to Dayton, this morning, by an
other Indian, named John, who was
drunk. This John is a tall, powerful
Indian, and he came to the campoody
making a great ftiss and acting badly.
TIE Indian killed, who was a cousin
To Charley, demonstrated with the
drunken John. and was about to rise
from where he was lying upon the
Ground, when John threw q big stone
at him, hitting him on the head and
saocklng him senSeless. His skull was
PROBABLY broken, for he never spoke or
showed any sign of sense afterward.
John then took to his heels, and As
o as possible the other Indians got
after him, but had not caught him at
last accounts. In case he is captured,
Charley says he shall order him hung.
