Yesterday took matters under their
own management and ran off with
Johns new wagon. Their passage up
Third street caused a general Stampede.
The team turned down Nevada street
and was brought TO a halt near the soap
factory. \ colt. belonging to one Of
the mares. Joined i'll the run and got
itself hurt. We are informed the
cause of the stampede was that the
wagon had been washed the day be-
fore, which being so unheaTd OF an
occurrence and a sight 50 entirely new
to the old mares, they for the time be
ing forgot themselves and ran away.
No driver >houli leave his team I'M
fastened, however quiet they may be,
as valuable lives may be sacrificed by
such careie>-uC>S.

deuel., formerly clerk in {. T. Colton'S
drugstore i'll this town, and who went
East some two years since to study
medicine. i TO deliver the vaIeiICtory
on medicine. at the Medical College,
Long Island. We are proud to note

of his protege.
LYNCH LAw.-It is reported that Il
married man named Alec. Hill, resid
ing near Mo;tsviIie. Douglas county,
seduced an innocent young girl, who
was living in his family ~ an assist
ant To hi- wife, and that the birth of a
child 50 proved on the iii OF the
poor vouug creature thai she died on
Monday last. From all accounts il
was yesterday expected that the brute
would be lEuchcI. such a crime i
bad enough when perpetrated by a
young and single man, but a married
beast to he guilty o! the like should
be punished 10 the full extent of the
law.
REsIGSED.-One of the newly or
gained base ball club resigned his
position as catcher, yesterday, and has
gone into dock 20 recuperate, or rather
to give an opportunity for Il new nail
to grow on II of his fingers. We re
fer TO NJ. NJ. Gaige, OF the Magnolia
Saloon. He has been practlcIng the
art of catching a ball on the tops OF
his fingers, his hands being too soft to
hold it without hEItln-. and has ar
rived at the conclusion that ME
some protection L. hands and fingers
is provided. he Will do his bail playing
on his own billiard table.
No CONNECTION. A gentleman
about visiting California, and desrrons
of going by way of Lake BigIer, winch
he had not yet e took passage on
Doc Benton's sta-e,supposfn- thai the
Truckee stage aud lake steamboat had
already made arrangeulcntSto connect.
He had consequently 10 return YeSier-
dav and go 10y lay way OF Reno. Had
he consulted Doc Benton he would
have been better informed. As soon
AS arrangements are perfecte with the
ferry BOAT and Truckee stage. due no
tice will be given to the public of the
fact.
NATIVE SrRAwBERRIEs.-We were
yesterday presented by Oliver Crom-
well with a box of ripe Strawberries,
grown on the Barkley Ranch, near
town. They were as large as the CAL
ifornia berry and much better favored.
They are of The wild species found on
the hills. and have been cultivated
but two or three seasons. Doubtless
Messrs. Barklev X Cromwell will do
well in this business in a year or two.
as their ranch is better adapted to the
growth Of berries and tomatoes than
any i'll this part of the State.
Brooks FRoG.-R. +. Brooks has
got a mummy of a frog(?) 1t is the
most comical looking critter ever eX-
hibited: whichever way 1t is viewed,
it excites the ri>ible faculties. 1t may
he a thousand years old or more.
Brooks call, it a p~etrjfaction, but he is
mistaken. He calls it a frog, but we
are not certain he is correct. We are
inclined to the idea that it was orig
inalIy one OF a tribe of Indians long
since passed away. Anyhow, the ami
nal is worth looking at, and worth
keeping as Il curiosity.
