with having been drunk and disturbing
the peace. He, for some time. made no
plea; but called for the officer who had
arrested him. and declared himself as in
nocent as lamb. The officer soon came

to the county, and returned to the
County Jail, with whose hosptable halls
he has long been familiar. He will re-
main there nineteen days.
All Cue, TIE fierce Monaghan who dis.
turbed the grave deliberations of Justice
IN the Court house, by firing off his pis-
tol not far from there the other day, was
brought up ON charge of disturbing the
peace. 1t will be remembered that he
had used another Celestial, on whom he
was charging with two pistols and an
eighteen-inch knife, as target. The
cunning Alb Cue, with smile that was
childlike and bland" pleaded guilty;
and justice which was happily (for All
Cue) very much tempered with mercy
only fined him five dollars and costs
amounting'in all to thirty EIGHT dollars
and twenty-five cents. The fine was paid
and the hero went off in search of anoth-
err target. r-
A GRAVEL WALK.-We have heard
some talk about making gravel walk
from the Postoffice to the Court. house.
Those who have to make the trip be-
tween the two places mentioned could
appreciate the good of such thing.
The sidewalks which are now built along
that portion of Lacour street are very ir-
regular, there being hardly any place in
which there is an uninterrupted walk of
twenty feet One of these sidewalks is
also barricaded-for fear perhaps, that
passengers might soil it with dirty boots
A gravel walk could be constructed at
small cost, and surely the many proper
ty owners and others who would have
the benefit of it would give a few dollars
each for the making of it. The gravel or
broken rock might easily be brought
from the dumps of different mines, and
the mining companies would probably
be only too glad to give it away. We
hope also to see the piece of road from
the Court house to the RECORD Office, i'm
proved. Who is the enterprising man to
+. agitate the matter among his neighbors
and lead the good movement?
The RAYMOND & Ely STOPPED. Yes
terday it was reported that an injunction
had been laid on the Raymond & Ely
Company, obliging them to cease work
on the mine. Few seemed to believe it
at first, people thinking it to be hoax.
By evening, however, the report was con-
!; frmed. All the work, except that done
by contract, was stopped yesterday, by
restraining order issued on the 25th of
August by Judge Hillyer in the United
States Circuit Court at Carson. at the in
stance of the Kentucky Mining Company,
that company having brought suit against
the Raymond & Ely. To the surprise of
many the bonds which the Kentucky
Company are to give are only to the
, amount of $1,000 October 5 is the day
. set for the Raymond & Ely to show cause
why the restraining order should not be
, made a perpetual injunction.
New JUSTICE OF THE PEACE.-1ester-
; day I. A. Stoutenburgh sent in his resig-
nation of the office of Justice of the
Peace of Phoebe Township. Mr.. j. B.
/ Van Hagen, who has held the position OF
Deputy Sheriff since January last, was
appointed to fill the vacancy. This
, office is one which is very important tc
: Phoebe, inasmuch as it does the duties
which devolve on police court in Other
towns. 1t is therefore essential that this
! institution should he carried on m just
5 and impartial as well as in business
|. like manner. 1t is expected that the
/, present Justice will aid in the good work
which has lately been commenced in the
higher court.
Pooh "Lo. On Sunday night We
: heard cries, either of anger or of distress,
coming apparently from Meadow Valley
street. As we approached the place from
D whence the sounds seemed to come, they,
