Taken In by Monte Sharps.

The Siirer State tells the following
good one on two we'll known Comstock-
ers:
Last week W. Frank Stewart and G..
Washington For. OF Virginia City, Ne
vada, passed through here to Eastern
Nevada on o prospecting and sanitary
trip. Both are old Californians, sup
possd to be accustomed to the ways OF
this wicked world. and not easily dupsd:
One Is posted on shocks, and knows all
about earthquakes. The other under
stands stocks, and has made q fortune
in California and Ophir. On arriving ut
Battle Mountain they imbibed with old
friends. and snapped jokes with Forbes
and McBeth. Each was introduced. IN
known TO the other. TO Jack Roach, the
lion Of the road. and chief Of the monte
sharps, whose calling neither knew nor
suspected. Jack, who always has an
eye TO business. ascertainsd their des-
tination. the time they would return,
and the probable weight Of their pocket
books, and taking the next train, fol-
lowed them to Carlin and anIiously
awaited their return from the csal fields.
and took passage with them to Battle
Mountain. In the smoking car he pro-
posed to Fox to play q game on Stewart.
"just for fun. you know" and the
proposition was readily accepted. Stew
art doesn't smoke. and to disarm snspi-
cion Jack sought him in another car
and proposed . game for FoI's bsnsht.
Now Stewart will leave an earthquake
any time to play q practical joke, and
swallowed the bait at ence. Jack and
Fox had laid their plans to get Stewart
in q monte game. and Jack and Stewart
did likewise to play Fox. II being under
stood in each case that tho money
should be returned. For having I'm
ished his Havana, made his appearance
On the scene, and the three arrived at
Battle Mountain on the most agreeable
terms with each other. Fox proposed
taking q look at Brown. the drunken
man, to which Stewart readily agreed.
and accompanied byJack, whom neither
suspected Of being a monte man, hast
sned to do 80. Brown, loaded with
greenbacks and coin. was unloading
rapidly to those betting at the game.
The THO were invited to invest. Jack
declined 10 do so unless he was permit.
ted 10 deal, in which event he would
risk his last nickel that mono could pick
out the woman" The drunken man
gave Jack the cards, and made two or
three bets and lost. Then Fox, to get
Stewart in. said he would ''spisl him a
hundred" Fox won. at which Stewart,
apparently excited. said he would bet q
hundred. In . few minutes Fox had
deposited his watch. and both were pros
pscted TO the bedrock. AZ Jack raksd
in the proceeds he gave each q wink, as
much as to say. 1--WE have played a good
Joke on him." The money OF course
was to be returned. but just ~ the train
wa starting Jack jumped aboard. and
the F~orty-ninen began to see the point
Of the joke. Fox says to Frank. ''do
you know who that fellow isi" And
Frank replied. ''damme II ! don't think
he's Q genuine three-carder." An sx-
PLANTATION snsued, and negotiations are
pending for the redemption Of the watch
and q loan TO enable them TO get back to
the Comstock.

Horrible.

A late number Of the Omaha Bee thus
describes The death Of . Mr.. Charles
Gerks Of that place:
He was returning from a abort BUSH
ness trip through the towns on the cast
ern division Of the Union Pacife-com-
ing homo to spend the Sabbath with his
family. At Fremont, where the train
stopped for the passengers to take din
nsr with Judge Sahler, Mr.. Gsrks was
one Of the guests at the table. He has
been SO long on the road, aud SO accus-
toned to travelling that no did not hasten
from the table when the call call aboard"
was made, and he was the last person
who left the dining hall. The train was
then in motion. He first endsavored TO
board the sleeper, but made q miss. The
next car was q second-class coach, sand.
wiched in between the Pullman and the
pay car, and by the time this coach
came up to where Mr.. Gerko was stand
ing. ready to jump for the platform, 1t
was under good headway. The steps
OF this coach were considerably
higher up than those OF the
sleeper, and the platforms OF the two
cars arc made quite differently. Mr..
Gerks succeeded In getting hold Of the
iron work on the platform, but missed
his footing on the step Of the coach, and
in o second OF time, being q heavy man,
his left leg swung under the car, across
the track, and under the wheels. At
the same moment the heavy bolts under
the rapidly moving coach caught him on
his left side and completely tore bones
and flesh away to such an extent that
the vital organs and ~intestines were eI-
posed to view. The train was stopped
10 quickly as possible. Those who
viewed the horrible sight car never for
get 1t. The left leg was cut completely
off above the knee. and the right leg
was crushed to pieces from the knee
down. The strong and healthy man Of
q few minutes before. lay there insensi-
BILE. mutilated. horrible to look at. II
he had been instantly killed, the acci-
dent would have lost part Of its horror;
but to lie there, with no hope Of life,
and only q few hours of suffering left In
his life, made the accident As sad as II
could be.
