LOCAL INTELllCENCE.
The Phoebe Stage Robbed and the
DR. YER Killed,

Early yesterday morning private
Dispatches we're received here an
uouncing the fact that the ri.
Mthe stage from Hamilton had been
robbed and the driver killed. Dur
ing the day many rumors gained
Gedence, one to the effect that there
had been a desperate fight between
the passengers and robbers, in which
several parties had been either killed
or wounded. Another was that the
Indians had raised and attacked the
stage, numbering the driver and also
several passengers. This story prob
bly, had its origin in the fact that the
robbers were painted so as to resem-
bic Indians. Sheriff Patterson, of
White Pine, t~eleIrapned Sheriff Sulli-
70 be on the lookout for the murder
es. The latter Immediately had men
on the alert, Watching the mountain
passes and securing the country
to 1.-THE southward. AT latest accounts
DO clue had been obtained as to the
direction taken by the fugitives. The
people OF Hamilton are greatly eXas-
lerated, and no doubt summary VEN
geance will be meted out to the vii
ltans in the event of their capture. In
our Geographic columns will be found
null particulars of the tragic affair.
NJ, Mann, the stage driver, who was
Killed, had many friendsan acquain-
aness in Eureka who will deeply de-
plore his untimely death.

Gems In America.

America Is considered tho largest
gem market In the world. The finest
diamonds owned BY European dealers
and offered by them for sale are sent
TO America, because they command a
higher price here than In Europe.
Diamond dealers state that the value
of diamonds In this country has more
than doubled In the last twenty-five
years. In Europe they arc seldom
owned or worn by any but the privi-
legged class. while here almost every
wealthy grocer or m%echanic's wife has
some diamond ornament. The pur-
chase Of these gems Is considered a
good investments aud frequently the
pater famiiids will make such pursha-
ses with his surplus cash In which his
wife and daughter arc permitted to
chine, but which no keeps his eyes on
and holds as securely as he does his
bonds aud mortgages.
Immense numbers Of diamonds r
Imported, and many of these are SNUG
plsd. A gentleman struggled two

taires for his wife, by putting them In

went through the examination In tri-

industriously chswed while the Gus
tom-house officers were searching his
pockets, examining his shoes, thrust
Ing their hands through his hair, and
turning him wrong side out generally.
It so happened that he had never &C
customed himself to the weed, and the
vigor with which he now masticated 1t
made him Ill. The natural result fol-
lowed, and the stone fell into the
hands of the officers.
The value aud beauty Of the diamond

the faintsst hue diminishss Its price.

The Washington correspondent Of
the Sacramento Record makes some
statements In reference to the Bogart
case which, II true, place the latter In
rather an unenviablc light before the
people. and those journals which have
so stoutly c~hampioned his cause in an
e~quivocsl position. According to the
statement of the correspondent, Bogart
not only took $40, 900 Of general funds,
and by making false entries on the
books got away with some $l7,0O ad-
ditional, ibut he stole $1,000 belonging
to the "slush fund" which IL accumu-
lated from the savings Of tho sailors on
their rations. He was tried BY Court
martial and convicted Of stealing, but
the Secretary Of the Navy decided the
findings wrong; that the crime was
not stealing, but embezzlement. He
was indicted In the United States Dis
trict Court, at Brooklyn, wherein he
pleaded that at the time Of the offense
he was In the naval service, and there
fore not within the jurisdiction Of the
civil courts, and on this plea was dis
charged. II the above are facts, 1t
seems to US that his attempt to escape
punishment by turning around and
pleading exactly the reverse before the
U. S..Court In San Francisco Is, to say
the least, without a shadow Of ~justics
or consistency.
