FRoM The MUDDy.- Isaac Jen-
nings; who lives at st. Thonras, 1870 miles
from Phoebe, and at the junction of the
Muddy and Virgin, 25 miles from the
Colorado. arrived in town yesterday.
Col. Jenninge has been among the In
dams in this section Of the country for the
last % years, and has acquired valuable
knowledge Of their habits, desires, etc.
| We learn from him that the Z. s. Indian
Agent, ingalls,, contemplates establishing
an Indian Reservation on the Muddy, if
fair terms can be made with the settlers;
and Col. Jennings thinks it can be done,
and that 1t would be to the advantage of
both the Government and the settlers to
| do SO, as the Indians are scattered over
an immense scope of country, probably
as large as the State of Illinois, and be-
yond the proper control of the Federal
Government; but once gathered upon a
reservation, little more trouble would
be had with them. Col. Jennings is aid
ing the Indian Agent in his endeavors to
control the "nobe red man of the forest"
and keep him in proper bounds. Indian
Agent Ingalls, is expected to return about
the 9Th of next month General Crook
requested Col. Jennings to send him rs
friendly Indians to fight the Apaehes in
Arizona, and 60 were sent accordingly
Col. Jennings says Gen. Crook intends
making vigorous campaign north and
east of San Francisco Mountain, and ex-
poets to have the country open for the
passage of prospectors and Adventures
within the next three months. .a.,
Row IN CHINATOWN Yesterday morn
ing the Chinese portion Of our town was
the scene OF row which might have re-
suited seriously but for the timely inter
ference of a citizen. The belligerents
were Jim and All Tim, the former of
whom gave undubitab!e evidence that he
had either hunted for somebody and
found him, or had been roughly assailed
As he entered Justice Stoutenburgh's
Office the streaks of blood across his face
gave it the appearance of railroad map
of the United States. The other was
not SO badly beaten, having only a
wound on his left forearm. The fighters
were accompanied by officer Boyd and
| Charles Livermore, citizen. Com
| plant was made in due form, when jim
made statement showing that the row
grew out of a gambling dispute. All
Tim was unable to make himself und r.
| stood Mr.. Livermore was sworn, and
stated that hearing a noise in China
town, he went there and found Jim with
the cue of his antagonist around his
arm and a loaded pistol in his hqnd.
Fearing that damage might ensue to out
side parties he arrested both of
them and handed them over to
officer Boyd. The cases were disposed
of very promptly each being required
to. pay $50, and comprehending the sit
uation, they departed, in custody of
officer Boyd, to interview Sam Sing on
the currency question. .aNr..r5 ~
