inst, sad accident occurred at the Port
Ludlow Mill. One of the employees,
Nicholas Costly, had his right leg badly
jammed against a carriage" " by log
making "a sudden roll, while being
placed in position. The unfortunate
man came to Port Townsend on last
Mondayand was taken to the Hospital,
where he received every attention. The
injury is a serious one, although no
bones were broken. At latest accounts
Mr.. Costly was doing well. 81

DYNG.-The man Brown, who was
shot and stabbed at Ludlow some
months since, has at last yielded to the
effects of his wounds and is dying. This
man has clung to life with wonderful
tcnacity, and for long TING It Nas
thought he would recover frog the
wounds that in nine cases out of<en
would have killed a man outright but
the effects Of an old disease combined
with the wounds, and together they will
gObble up their victim.

along the Colombia. Only two pictures
were shown Of Puget Sound views

explained to the audience, both Of these
pictures are detective and viii have 10

The most cruel action of our Govern
ment, and at the same time evincing a
total disregard for the lives and prop
erty Of frontier settlers, is the compli-
ance by the Department Of the Interior
with the demand of the Sioux chiefs for
rifles and ammunition. When one con
templates such heartless disregard for
the welfare Of the frontiersmen Of the
United States on the part OF these inef-
ficient and imbecile officers Of the Gov
ernment, the desire naturally comes
over one to ~ such tied to the staHN
and b6D4. In the name of God, hNg
log Nhust the people tolerate such
dealings on the part Ofcorrupt
and careless officials ?
