He was not absent more than twenty

RAPE.-AC hinaman named Charley,
recently employed as cook at the
Warm Springs, committed arape upon
a little girl, five years of age, Oh Sat
urday last. The child was taken sick.
and not until a physician was called
was the outrage known. \ warrant
was issued, and yesterday afternoon
Sheriff Swift and the father of the
child succeeded in capturing the brute
and lodged him in the County Jail.
The threats OF the Chinaman intiIni-
dated the little girl and deferred her
from informing her parents OF the
outrage. Charley is well known here
aboutS, has been a wood contractor.
was formerly agent for supplying the
Central Pacific Railroad Company
with Chinese labor, and subsequently
acted in the same capacity for the Nir
ginia. Carson and Truckee Railroad.
He had recently left the Warm

turned for Il balance of SIS owing to
him. which, being paid, he told his
former employer that he was going to
Reno. He speaks English we'll, and
is above the average of Cinnamon Iii
physical development n point OF
intelligence. There is no doubt OF his
guilt.
Another RAPE. - Elsewhere We
mention an outrageous case of rape
committed by a Chinaman upon a
little girl five years of age. Another
case of attempted rape occurred on
the same day-Saturday laSt-the par
ties being a ChinaInan and a white
girl only three years of age. In the
latter 5 there appears 10 be some
doubt as to the intent of the Chinaman
and as to the exact nature of the
offense committed. A warrant was
issued yesterday for his arrest, and
we believe he is still i'll the city,
though at large.
