The book agent is a character in his
way. He calls on you in your office, on
the street, or at home, and begins OPERA
tlons by making a few remarks about the
weather, ,-and after stating that the print
ing press is the bulwark of civilization
he applies his handkerchief to his nose,
and remarks that he has the book of the
season, and the very one you want. You
may be man of years and experience.
ou may be dignifed beyond degree. 1t

INN at all he will treat you as q child
from the very start, and give you sketch
of the work in hand, after which Won

HOMICIDE ON THE MUDDY.-We re-
ceived late last night few of the lead
ing facts in regard to homicide which
occurred in the Muddy Valley, about 80
miles south of Bullionville, two or three
days ago. Two men, named respectively
Pleasant and Moon, claimed adjoining
ranches, and disputed about the bound
airy lines. The case was left to neighbors
for arbitration, and, while Moon was
making a statement of the facts on his
side, Pleasant called him "a id liar"
Thereupon Moon struck ut Pleasant,
when Pleasant drew his revolver; Moon,
seeing the weapon, started to run, and
Pleasant fred at him as he was going,
one of the balls penetrating a vital part
of his body, when he fell and soon ex-
pired. The settlers arrested Pleasant
and were bringing him to Phoebe, but he
managed to make his escape on the road.
One Of the Deputy Sheriffs is now in
search of the murderer. The settlers of
the Muddy pronounce it cold-blooded
murder, aud have offered reward for
the arrest of the perpetrator.
We are constantly receiving letters
from San Francisco making complaint
that certain mines are not noticed in
our Weekly Mining Review. No reli-
able report Of mining operations has
ever been rejected by us; but it is no
trifing task to visit all the mines each
Saturday, and if any are omitted those
having charge OF them are the ones tc
censure. We make no mining items
from imagination or irresponsible street
reports. Those having charge of de-
velopments can have progress reported
in our columns whenever they will pu
themselves out Of the way to furnish vi
the facts. We hope our San francisco
friends will hereafter write to the prope
parties about the omission Of mime
from our weekly report.
