NEVADA STATE ITEMS.
virginia,

The Enterprise confirms the surmises
of the Chronicle in regard to the alb.
sconding Of E. F. GARRISON, City Clerk.
He is lergely indebted to various parties.
1t is thought he will be apprehended and
brought back to Virginia. We gather
these items from the Enterprise, of the
Goth:
ARRESTED FOR EMBEzzLEMENr.-L. S.
Wild, Manager of the Atlantic and Pa
cific Telegraph Company in this city, was
last evening arrested on a charge OF en-
bezzlement preferred against him by F.
l.. Vandenbursh, Superintendent of the
affairs of said company. Mr.. Wild is
charged with having taken and converted
to his own use Sl,0S6.73 belonging to
the Telegraph Company. Pending all
examination, Wild was lodged in the
County Jail He will probably have a
hearing to-day before Justice Marble
Wild's friends seem to think that be
will probably come out of his trouble all
right.
LOST HIS RIGHT HAND.-Daniel Arnold
is the name of the young man who had
the misfortune to have his right hand
causht by an edging saw at Captain
Pray's saw-mill, at Lake Tahoe, last
Wednesday AS we stated day or two
since, his thumb aud all his fingers, ex-
cept the little finger. were cut off by the
saw. His hand, as we have since learned,
was so badly mangled that the physician
called to his assistance found it necessa-
ry to amputate it at the wrist. Mr.
Arnold is but about twenty years of age
and had been at work for Captain Pray
since last March.
The Chronicle Of the Goth contains n
graphic account OF the fire in the Yellow
Jacket, the material portions of which
have been sent us by telegraph. We
copy the concluding paragraph:
Coroner Holmes, who was on the pas
senger train from Reno this morning,
hearing of the calamity, dropped off ut
the Hill at . O'Clock, and subsequently
summoned jury, made an examination
of the dead bodies and adjourned the in
quest until 10 o'clock Tuesday morning
next.
GOLD HILL,
The News contains an interesting ac-
count of the Yellow Jacket fire, with the
following editorial comments:
The serious and fatal explosion which
took place in the Yellow Jacket mine
this morning. has caused intense excite.
ment both in this city and Virginia. Six
victims have been taken out, and many
more are poisoned with the gas and
shocked by the explosion. At this writ.
ing the fire is still burning, but is con-
| fined to small portion of the mine.
Visible grief pervades the city. and large
numbers are watching the efforts being
made to ex.inguish the flames. The
shadows Of this awful calamity have en-.
shrouded many families and friends Of
the dead, whose sudden and awful end
has spread mantle of sorrow over the
whole community.
From the journal OF the goth, We copy
the following:
