tered from clambering upon the cars
whenever they see half an opportu-
nity. A train which came up this
forenoon was covered with the noble
red men. They were on the wood
cars, on the timber cars, on the plat
forms and two were mounted upon the
tender. Wrapped In their gay-colored
blankets they gaze to the train quite a
picturesque appearance. They are all,
Of course. dead.heads Of the first water;
a fact which they seem to duly appre-
ciate. The faster the cars run the bet
ter the redskins like 1t, and II a Piute
brave Is ever seen to forget the dignity
of his station and savage nature and
break out in a child-like grin, 1t Is
when he Is mounted upon a wood car
with train running at a geodly gait.
LEG Broken IN A ScUFFLE.-At the
washoe Brewery, on the Divide, last
night about Z o'clock, while scufling
or wrestling, Stephen Miller had both
bones of his right leg broken between

present that the leg was broken and
DR.. Engles was sent for, who set the
broken bones and did all that was re-
auired under the circumstances. We
called at the Washoe Brewery this
morning aud found the injured man
stretched upon a mattress near the
stove. apparently quite comfortable.
He said he felt no pain as long rs his

his way home to Gold Hill a little
after midnight last night, when he was
knocked down on the Divide and
robbed Of $37 In coin. He was passing
u quartz wagon standing near the side
of the street when some concealed foot
pad hit him with a slung-shot, knock
ing him s~enseless. He thinks he must
have laid there nearly halt an hour be-
fore he came to his senses, when lie
walked to Gold Hill. His head was
badly cut on the right side, evidently
with a slung-shot, but the skull was
not fractured. DIR. Kirby, who dressed
the wound, says Cox was the bloodiest
man he has seen for many 4 day.

to find bail in a similar amount, Is still
