Little Malta Funeral.

The funeral of Matthew Cahill, aged
four years and five months. who died bv
the hand Of a careless marksman, took
place yesterday, from the residence of
his parents, on Upper Main street. First
in the procession came the members of
the Hook and Ladder Company, for lit.
tie Matt was fireman. Following was
buggy containing Rev. Father Monte
verde, and after this the hearse. with
twelve pall-bearers. The children of the
public school were in the procession,
and long line of footmen, among whom
were many of our most respected citi-
zens, followed them. In the rear were
score OF carriages, and as many horse
men. Altogether there were in the pro-
cession nearly four hundred persons.
The sidewalks were lined with specta-
tors along the route of the procession,
which went down Main street, to La
cour, down Lacour to Phoebe, down
Phoebe to Hoffman, down Hoffman to
Main, up Main to Meadow Valley, up
Meadow Valley to Cedar. and up Cedar
to the Catholic Church, where the body
was left, and whence it will be taken to
San Francisco.
The silence of the streets through
which the procession passed, and the
sorrowful faces of those who followed the
hearse, gave token of how dearly the little
boy was loved by almost the whole town.
The man who committed the foolish act,
resulting in his death, needs no reproof.
The knowledge of the deep affection of
his parents and the sorrow of the COM
munity will be punishment more severe
than any that his fellow creatures could
infiict. The parents have lost fair,
sweet and good child, whom they know
to be happy now; but the man who dis
charged the fatal shot knows that he has
committed almost a murder. Whose af-
Fiction is the greater?
A FIGHT.-At about 6 O'Clock last
evening fight took place between two
miners at Meadow Valley street saloon.
1t was genuine rough and tumble fight.
After the belligerents had belabored each
other for about ten minutes officer Nc
kse and Sheriff Travis appeared on the
scene and put an abrupt end to the fra
-cas by marching the belligerents off to
the calaboose. After being searched by
the Tailor, McManus, they were politely
offered the Inequalities of cell No. 10,
where they may mediate until this even
ing, when they will be introduced to
Justice Van Hagen, who will give them
a chance to explain the caslts beHi.
