Ok the 2sth Of August a Government
train, consisting Of thirty-six mule
teams. loaded with army supplies for
Fort Lyon, and proceeding along Dry
Creek. between Carson City and Fort
Lyon In Colorado, under the command
Of Steve Bryan, wagon-master, WAS
attacked BY a band Of two hundred
Arrapahoe warriors, under the com.
mand Of their Chief, Little Raven.
The wagons were burned aud all the
contents that could be carried OH were
taken, consisting Of bacon. etc. The
mules were run oil. aud fifteen men
belonging to the train were wounded
or killed. Mr.. Bryan was skinned
alive from head to foot. Besides these.
fifteen men are missing. The most a.
to.ii,ilny oart OF the affair Is, that the
outrage wis committed while the train
waS under the escort Of Lieutenant
Mcfarland, of the Sixth Cavalry. who
had oas hunirst dragoon. with him.
We ctnu"t i'm ,Sine what plea Lieut..

RECKLESS HUNTERS.

The Neosho Valley (Kansas) Register
gives the following account Of how
some lawless hunters shot two boys:
A few days ago a party Of hunters
from Neosho Falls. came OH the prem
ises of James Townsend. and were or
dered by a couple OF sons of Mr.. Town
send. who Were Mt work In the field,
not to shoot chickens OH their farm, as
their father did not wish 1t. The hum
tiers paid no attention to the boys. but
wenton shooting. aud in some manner
the boys received n charge Of shot, one
Of them being shot 10 the eyes, so that
one eye Il totally destroyed aud the
other badly injured. That the other
boy Is not seriously hurt Is more his
good lack than anything else. The
practice of hunters going Into the grain
fields OF farmers and shooting chickens
In opposition to the wishes OF the
owner, Is a willful violation OF the
law, and every Gaze should be brought
to the attention of the proper authori-
tie. and the yiolator properly pun
ished.

THE cLovEN FOOT AGAIN.

The Enterprise OF this morning has
the ineffable presumption to state In
this mornings issue that the Jones
clique have made up no slate In this
election matter ; that they have not
got everything cut and dried. Now the
c. o. G. knows better. He knows that
he was II Of the four who met with
Jones In recent conclave at Virginia
day before yesterday and put up the
election job for to-day. His paper
this morning proves this. He pub
fishes lists Of the delegates selected to
be voted for to-day at the primaries,
even the list for the First Ward, Gold
Hill, right In the face Of the fact that
no delegates were even month";
ated by the voters Of that Ward.
At the meeting Of the Club last evening
It was proposed to nominate a set Of
delegates, but after a short discussion
. disagreement Was so palpable that it
was given up-or, which was all the
same, the whole Club was nominated.
That was bound to make no difference,
however, for, II we said before. the
whole thing was cut and dried before
hand. And the Enterprise has the
sublime effrontery this morning to tell
the free voters Of this part Of America
that they must vote this ticket; that It
means Jones for Senator, and they
must shut up both eyes and swallow
1t; that non other Is genuine. Well,
1t has been voted pretty extensively
to-day, and as those opposed to Jones
staid away and would have nothing
to do with the one-sided scheme, the
result will show merely . vote Of the
Jones party. But the result Is liable
to reach beyond. Free American Cit
liens object to being led by the nose,
AMI neither the Enterprise nor Jones

At 7o'clock last evening the First
Ward Republican Club, Virginia, held
Its regular weekly meeting. Quite
q numoer Of the members, all sound
Republicans and highly respected citi-

aud voice In the selection Of the men
they would have represent them In

Of business been gone through, when a
Jones man jumps to his feet and moves
