CORONER's INhUEST.

John J. Sullivan was killed on
Sunday last, on the Pine Mountain
ranch, few miles from Dayton, by
the falling of stable which he was
completing. Isaac Leversee, Coro-
ner, held an inquest on Monday,
when the following testimony was
elicited:
David Vermelyea, sworn.-I have
been acquainted with John J. Sui
Ivan a short time; 1 was putting
my horses in the stable. and saw
Sullivan; he was with me; ne was
holding the light, and told Sulli-
van if he had anything to do he
could go and do it, but he said he
would stay and hold the light; and
as was blanketing the horses the
stable fell; was caught under part
of the building, but 1 soon got out
and called to Sullivan, but he did
not answer; said Sullivan is native
of Ireland, and about so years of
age.
Little Charley, sworn.-I was in
my bed, and when Vermelyea called
me I got up and went out, and he
told me that Sullivan was dead;
when l went out 1 found Sullivan
covered up with logs, and 1 helped
to get him out.
The following is the verdict of the
jury: We, the undersigned, the
jurors summoned to appear before
Isaac Leversee, the Coroner of the
County of Lyon, at the Court House,
on the I'd day of November, 1874, to
inquire into the cause of death of
John J. Sullivan, having been duly
sworn according to law, and having
made such inquisition, after inspect
ing the body, and hearing the testi
mony adduced, upon our oaths, each
and all do say, that we ind the de-
ceased was named John J. Sullivan,
was native of Ireland, aged about
so years; that he came to his death
on the 1st day of Noyemberj 1874,
in this county, on the Pine Noun
tain ranch, by the falling of stable,
by which he got his neck broken.

ANOTHER ILLEGAL ASSESSMENT. Elsewhere
we caution the stockholders of the Avalanche
Gold and Silver Mining Co., that their stock is
liable to be sold without legal publication.
The Quinn Mining Company levied an :assess-
ment on the LIST of october, payable on or be-
fore the 9Th of November, when it would be-
come delinquent and be advertised for sale on
the 10th day of December, 1874. The notice
of sale is being published in a paper printed
in another county, consequently is not legal,
yet the stockholders who may be sold out are
liable TO be put to great deal ST trouble to
recover their just dues, and the innocent pur-
chaser of stock sold at the sale be left out in
the cold. 1t stands our mining population in
hand to see that these swindles are not al
lowed to go by unchallenged.

Afternoon Board.

THE ELECTION passed off very
quietly in this place, and it might be
added, throughout the county. No
serious difficulty took place, only
TWO or three slight scrimmages oc-
CURING. The friends of both po-
itical parties worked from early in
the morning until the last vote was
polled. The law closing the saloons
as well as keeping the crowd away
from the polls, had much to do with
the orderly character of the election.
With some of the State and County
officers the contest was particularly
exciting, and the result is yet in
doubt, two or three votes changing
it either way; but it is generally con-
ceded that the entire Republican
county ticket is elected. The Re-
publicans can congratulate them
elves that they carried the Legisla-
1--WE county ticket by the "skin of
| heir teeth" it took hard work. We
publish all the returns it was pos
sible to procure up to the time of
going to press last evening. In the
TINES of Sunday morning we will be
able to give nearly or quite the off
cial returns of this county, and PEI
haps of the entire State.

BULLION SHIPMENTs.-For the

Agent of Wells, Fargo & Co., ship

he has shipped ~ bars, of the aggre-

there will be twice the shipment OF

APoLoGETIC. For the past few
weeks our columns have been crow
ded to that extent that we could not

intention to do in future. Elections
only come once in two years, and
last but a short time. The paper

BURGLARs.-T There have been a
number of small robberies lately,
Principally confined to lodging
houses. AS a Chinaman was de-
iecied in the act of robbing the Sill
Yer House, it is more than probable
that he has been doing considerable
IN the line. 1t is to be hoped that a
dose of buck shot will settle the
thief soon. Until this desirable end
accomplished, it would be well for
all to put their valuables out of the

MAN KILLED AT TAHOE Cry. We learn from
Mr.. W. T. BUCK Davis, that the notorious
Jim Stewart who was widely known hereabout
as a desperate. aud who killed a man at the
Glenbrook few years ago, was killed on Sun
day night by one r. II. Scott, at Tahoe City.
under the following circumstances: Scott,
who is barkeeper for Campbell & Forbes at
Tahoe, and Stewart have long been unfriend-
ly. Stewart had frequently threatened to kill
Scott, and on the night in question persisted
in entering the said saloon, seeking fight
with Scott. The proprietors of the saloon
were on the watch for disturbance. and to
prevent it, ordered Stewart to leave their
premises. The last time he left there he went
away saying that he was going to arm himself
As he was returning Scott confronted him
armed with shotgun, and warned him to
keep his distance. Stewart paid no heed to
this warming, but kept advancing on Scott, and
as he approached the latter, he discharged his
weapon, iDflicting such wounds as to cause
Stewards death in about two hours. As he
was dying, Stewart made the request all he
had to say in fact-that Buck Davis would
take care of his, Stewards boy-a son of his
by an indian woman. Scott caused the
authorities of Placer county to be informed of
the killing and remained at Tahoe City await.
ing such action as might be taken in the
premises. The result will be his prompt ac-
quittal, for tho Stewart was found without
arms upon him, his threats and well-known
desperate character justify any man to kill
him under the circumstances which induced
Scott to shoot at him.-Carson appeal, Sd.

The time is fixed at this day in order to allow
the case to be represented at Ottawa. There
is great excitement among the French Cana
dams, and this action will be the cause for
the reOpening of the Riel hostilities, as
French speaking people think that they are
being prosecuted by the English authorities.

allow one of their leaders to be thus sacrificed.

GOLDEN TRUTHS FROM THE WHITE House.
Serene as a Summers day are those we'll
known and popular clothing men, Messrs.
Cohn 4 Isaacs No. 16 south street, Virginia.
The world wags well with them. People appre
ciate their goods, approve of their prices; and
admire their style of doing business. At the
WHITE HOUSE CLOTHING STORE are seen no
broils nor contentious with swindled custo
mers returning moth eatel and inferior goods
No evasive protestations, that II didn't sell il
to you" and II didn't recommend it, winding
up with ''your eyes were your market, sir. "
At the WHITE HOUSE old customers daily re
turn, bringing their friends with them, who
also become good customers. OF course to
some natures, it is very CALLING to see a new
establishment like the WHITE House open
right under their noses, as it were, and achieve
q marked and brilliant success; taking in the
very start high position in public esteem.
and gaining a greater share of popular favor
and patronage than many houses that have
beed hammering away for years. However,
these old houses should learn to grin and
bear it. Messrs. Cohn 4 Isaacs do not allude
to these things in any spirit of pride or tri-
umph; they simply state facts for the public
good. They do not doubt that it is gall and
wormwooa to their neighbors to have custo-
mers of many years standing leave them and
give their patronage TO the WHITE HOUSE
CLOTHING STORE, but manifestation of temper
is in very bad taste. and really has bad effect.
Being manifestly untrue it disgusts all hear
ers, and sends customers by scores to the
WHITE HOUSE. Such is life. SO mote it be.

opportunity of Kidding themselves, through
his professional agency, of such constitutional
annoyances and ailments as he claims to COM
pass and to cure. Without entering into biog-
raphcal details, it is sufficient to simply prom
ulgate the fact that DR.. SPINNEY'S earliest
reputation may be traced back to his inaug-
uratiOn and conduct of the Montreal canada
East Medical Institute. The regime of the
English Pharmaceutical College is gagged by
an elevated standard. An extended experience
and an assiduous study of the varied phases
of Disease, enables him to guarantee assur-

multiform chronic affections incident to both
sexes. such as Nervous Debility, Exhausted

Middle.Aged Men.

There are many of the age of thirty to sixty
who are troubled With too frequent evacua-
tions of the bladder. often accompanied by a
slight smarting or burning sensation and
a weakening of the system in a manner the
patient cannot account for; on examining the
urinary deposits ropy sediment will often
be found, and sometimes small particles of
albumen will appear, or the color will be of
thin or milkish hue, again changing to dark
and torpid appearance. There are many men
who die of this difficulty, ignorant of the
cause, which is the second stage Of seminal
weakness. DR.. S. will guarantee perfect
cure in all such cases, and healthy restora-
ton of the genito-urinary organs.
N. B.-Only an interview required in ma
jority of cases. balance of treatment can be
conducted at home without interruption of
business. No case treated without personal
interview and proper examination. Office

YOUNG MEN.

Who may be suffering from the effects of
youthful follies or indiscretion, will do we'll
to avail themselves of this, the greatest boon
ever laid at the altar of suffering humanity.
Dr. Spinney will guarantee to forfeit five hun
bred dollars for every case of seminal weak
ness, or private disease of any kind or charac-
ter, which he undertakes and fails to cure.
He would, therefore, say to the unfortunate
sufferer who may read this notice, that you are
treading upon dangerous ground when you
longer delay in seeking the proper remedy for
your complaint. You may be in the first
stage-remember you are approaching the
last. If you are bordering onithe last, and are
suffering some or all of its i'll effects, remem-
Der that if you obstinately persist in pro-
crastination, the time must come when the
skilful physician can render you no assist
snce; when the door of hope will be closed
against you: when no angel of mercy can
bring you relief In no case has the Doctor
failed of success. Then let no despair work
itself upon your imagination, but avail your
self of the beneficial results of his treatment
before your case is beyond the reach of med
ical skill, or before grim death hurries you to
q premature grave.

COME AND BE HEALED.

1t matters not what your troubles may be,
come and let the Doctor examine your case.
Ii will cost you nothing for consultation, so
please call and satisfy yourselves whether the
Doctor understands your case If he can cure
you he will tell you SO :; if not, he will say so.
