carted off to the Jail. 1t was the noted |
Spanish Bell Rogers. 1t appears she had
difficulty with Antoine, Mexican, and |
mad thrown dirk at him, and if certain
parties had not interferred, bloodshed |
probably would have been the result.
Constable Hickey went into the house
and endeavored to arrest her,l but she
had got hold of the knife again and made
threatening strikes at Hickey. He drew
his revolver, and tried to strike her on
the hands that she might let go of the
knife, but without effect, and not until
the arrival of Officer Holland was he able
to arrest her: She fought hard and in
the melee cut her own hand with the
knife. She was promptly taken to Jail
and held to answer. Co. siderable talk
was made throughout the town that Of
ticer Hickey had struck the girl ON the
head. He did nothing of the kind, he
did, as we said before, try to knock the
knife from her hand with his revolver
and save himself from being cut. All
our officers endeavor to do their duty and
what more can be asked of them. There
are none of them, SO as we can learn,
around town and fauit-fnding with an
officer for arresting a person who COM
mits an offence and is a subject of arrest
is very uncharitable, for they are but full
filling the authority invested in them.

ARKANSAS MINE.-In our notice of the
above mine in fridays issue, the type
made us say that frst-class steam hoist
ing works would be put up, but should
have been, "tirst-class steam hosting
works have been put up and in splendid
operation for three weeks" As this was
typographical error, we beg to be ex-
cused. The steam hosting works of the
Arkansas are of the best kind, and work
admirably, the steam condenser condens-
ing the steam and thereby saving half
the expense that would be otherwise en-
tailed on the company for water. We
hear of several other companies which
are about to use the condenser on that
account. Everything about this mine is
now in such shape as to save ex-
pense; such. for instance, as the house
that covers the engine, it being built with
one end against the solid rock, and MAX
ing the expense of building not much
more than a miners cabin. The Ar
kansas has as fine prospects as any mine
in the district. and if it does not pay div
idends shortly it will not be the fault OF
the management. The ore now on the
dump, by milling, would pay all ex.
penses attached to the working up to
date.
