OUTGOING OF Sw1NE-Farmer Tread
way, on his old grey nag, and number
Of small boys on foot, drove out lot OF
huge fat pigs to the ranch, yesterday,
and before they left Carson street the
trouble that one might have predicted
befell the drove and the drivers. The
gross creatures got so tired before they
reached Mat Rinkel's corner that two or
three went down in the hind legs. When
they were passing around Mats corner
his big bull do. went after them, accom-
panied by about thousand terriers
(more or less) which are doomed to die
next week Tor live and cost more than
they are worth. This onslaught con-
fused the herd and COMPOUNDED the driv-
ers. 1t was general mixture and scrim-
mage during which big boar got be-
tween the legs of a man who was trying
to cross the street, and carrying him if
teen or twenty feet dropped him on his
face in the dirt. But the feature of the
scene was to see the multitude of mas
tiers that came to reclaim with oaths and
kicks their multitude of dogs.

WATER CAsg.--The examination Of
the witnesses fer the defendants in the
case of the WasLoe ranchmen against
the Marlette Flume Company was begun
Thursday and all day was spent in the
endeavor on the part of the attorneys for
the defense TO establish the prescriptlve
right of their clients. Yesterday, Fri
day, the taking of testimony was con-
tinued, and without any evening session,
finished. To-day, therefore. the arsu-
ments pro and con, which promise to be
sufficiently long and dry, notwithstand-
ing the nature of the element chiefly in
volved in the suit, will be heard before
the Judge. As to the issue of the suit
nothing can be predicted. The ranch
men are elated over one circumstance,
however; for, as one of their number
exclaimed in happy voice to one of his
compeers on the street last night: ELLIS
goes in for the last speech; and that's
good

MosE HAYSEs.-This name is familiar
to the old residents of Carson. Nose, it
seems, is in a good way and is in the
right place. The reporter of the Gold
Hill News has been interviewing him
and has learned the following which we
extract from that paper of last evening:
"Mose Haynes is just in from Elko. He
brings very fatterins reports from the
mines in the new district, the principal
of which are the Chloride and the Leop-
ard. We were shown piece of rock
from the first named mine which was
nearly all silver. Another piece of ore
from the same mine, which assayed by
Wiegand, went 81, 900 to the ton. The
Chloride ledge has been traced about
half a mile. A sample of ore taken from
the Leopard, assayed 800 in silver and
500 in gold. About so different claims
have been located already. The mineral
region is about 20 miles in extent. Peo-
pie are tiocking to the new district at the
rate of 100 per day. Two stage lines are
running from Elko: fare, IS. The first
building going up in the district is be-
ing erected by Haynes & Hogle. The
first named gentleman returns to Elko
this evening"

GLENBRooK BALL.-The dance at the
Glenbrook. Thursday night, was at

Carson who report that the party in all
its arrangements was first rate. Dancing
began early and ended about midnight.
The music by the Virginia Quadrille
band was excellent. A few of our charm
ing Carson ladies' were in attendance
which tended to make the affair what it
was1 an entire SUCCESS.

SUNDAY SwIMMING.-A number of our
far western youths including the devil
(of this office) make regular trips to
Empire and the Carson River in whose
cool but shallow waters they lave their
naked bodies and try to swim. Judging
from accounts which we have near at
hand the juvenile rapscalions have high
times on these Sabbath excursions.
They are joined at the station by their
youthful compeers of the neighboriny
city, and they all go in crowd to the
stream yelling and whooping and jump
ing and kicking as high as they please.
They leave Carson on the noon train
(just the time that their distressed Sun
day School teachers are anxiously look
ing for them in the class and shedding
pious tears because they are not ON
hand.) The good natured conductors
and engineers ON the freight trains, give
them free passage. Reaching the get off
place they mingle with the reinforce
ment of Empire boys. Such jabbering
starts up as was never heard before.
The smart Alecs from Carson and the
smart Alecs from Empire vie with each
other in showing their respective smart
ness in tricks, muscle, and profanity.
Each young hoodlum from Carson makes
the trip provided with tobacco pouch and
an exhaustless supply of cigarette papers.
The Empire juvenile sports lay back and
puff Dutch Nick's stinkers and spit
great gaubs to show their visitors that
they have the stomachs of men. The
crowd having satisfied themselves with
a show of their chewing and smoking
break for the river wild with
the thought of the swim which they
promise themselves. They swim, and
fight (of course) when they get out.
They are not big enough to put very dis
tressing heads on each other, however;
and after another season of smoking and |
swearing they repair to the Mexican
switch to catch the o'clock train to |
Carson. They generally find the same
good natured conductors and engineers;
but sometimes they catch a Tartar, as
hey did last Sunday. They had just |
gotten on board and the cars were roll
ing homeward when the conductor see
ing the crowd of impecunious passengers
be had on board stopped the train and
,hucked them off. They stoned the
offender to the best of their muscle and
activity and then walked back to Carson
for spite. !

UNKNowN.-A lady whose name we
have not been able to learn was travel
ing last Tuesday from Georgetown, Cal,
to Auburn by Stage. She fell from her
seat by the driver headlong to the
ground, and the coach rolled over her,
crushing one of her feet. At last ac-
counts she remained insensible still from
the effects Of the shock and bruises she
sustained. A fainting fit is said to be
the cause of her sudden, and may be,
fatal tumble. In a conversation before
the accident she claimed to be from Vir-
sinia City, Nevada.

WrrHDEAwAL.-Ths boys who have

ont of his box. He is around some
where in the dark; and if nsighbors
miss chickens they must make sure that
the escaped badger is not on their prem
ises before they accuse the ordinary
chicken thief-John Chinaman.

TAPpED.-Every man knows uncle
Johnny" He is the fat man of the sp-
orts. He deals for the tiger sometimes,
and sometimes he bets. He is around in
some capacity at all times and the game
yields him always grub and place
where he can sleep. Billy" is not
so well known among the boys. He is
carpenter by trade and does honest jobs
with his horny hands. Billy" likes
soft thing, however, and thinks that
the easiest way is the best. So, as he
has done before, he repaired to the Mag
nolia several nights ago; and sat watch
ing the game of win and lose without
taking any part, for he had no stake.
Uncle Johnny was sitting heavily by the
table and was about to take up bet that
he had won, when Billy in a moment
of forgstfulness, made move to do the
same and did grab the pile. A few
words ensued which led to quarrel
that a whack from Johnny's cane on
Billy's head brought to an end, and came
near ending Billy's life who tumbled
to the ground and lay there insensible
for half hour. He says he is half
crazy ever since, and wears ice in his
hat. He carries q long screw driver
whatever job he has to do. 1t is no I'M
lawful thing to carry, he says, and if he
should quarrel with man and hit him
it will not be his fault.
