New YORK, Sept. In the case OF
the colored man in Brooklyn who APP.
piled for the mandamus to compel the
Board OF Education to admit his son to
the school set apart for white children,
Judge Gilbert, while reserving his de-
cision. said that the system of common
school education was established for the
public and all persons had access
thereto and the Board of Education had
no power to exclude.
CHICAGO, Sept. IA Washington
special says that the case of the Gilbert
c. Trufant, mentioned in the dispatches
yesterday, has attracted some interest in
official circles, and further particulars
transpired to-day. The Trufant. when
sold at Liverpool, was indebted to her
seamen for wages and to the United
States for certain hospital dues. The
owners of the Trufant sold her without
paying her crew or dues of the vessel.
The crew applied to the American
Consul, and he to Minister Schenck.
Mr.. Schenck wrote to Earl Derby about
the matter, and brisk correspondence
was maintained between the govern
ments on the subject. Schenck wanted
the British authorities to withhold the
papers from the Trufant until she had
paid her crew. Derby declined and as
much as said that he couldn't afford to
act as collector of debts due the United
States. When he ordered papers to be
issued to the Trufant Schenck at once
notified the State Department here, and
it in turn informed the Secretary of tie
Treasury, who has instructed all of the
collectors of customs on the sea coast 10
seize at first opportunity the Trufant
and hold her until she pays up her dues.
When done the United States will have
| no further claim on her.

and Others, whose names could not be
obtained, the whole under the command
of Colonel Sabln. Arriving at Silver
Park about dusk, there the party met two
Indians. Mr.. Glissan and his son had
separated somewhat from the rest OF the
party, and, having heard that there were
spies out, Mr.. Glissan rode up towards
them and insisted on speaking with
them. In trying to head them OIL his
horse, that is not much accustomed to
the saddle, got her head and pushed
on past the Indians, and Mr.. e.. received
three arrows-one in the right thigh, one
in the shoulder and one in the breast,
which, in all probability, would have
proved fatal, but that it pierced heavy

his breast. His son Immediately COM

volver. Mr.. Johnson rode up, and see.
ing that Mr.. Glissan was wounded, and
the Indian still firing his arrows, shot
and killed the Indian, who proved to be- a
son of the Chief of the Snake tribe. His
companion escaped, wounded, after
swapping his rifle at Mr.. johnson, but,
fortunately for him, missed fire. This
caused great excitement among
the party, who could hear the
yells of the Indians on the noun
tains, but, as it was too dark
to continue the chase the whole party
went into camp about mile from where
this occurred. Col. Sabiu ordered that
the horses should be picketed as close
to the camp as possible, and to prevent

At Plattsburg. N. Y. has Just been dis.
covered what is considered the third
singing beach in the world, the Others
being situated on the shores of the Medi-
terranean and the Boston harbor. The
peculiarly OF these beaches is that when
the sand is disturbed it emits a musical
sound not unlike that of the aolian harp,
which is supposed to arise from the
grating of the particles Of sand against
each other.

CLAIMANTS WANTED Since many Cal
ifornians of former days may have found
their way TO Nevada, the following from
the Sacramento Bee will possibly catch
the eye Of an interested party in this
State:
Barnes Parker, of Austin, Texas, sends
US matter of interest to Californians, az
follows: There are many persons in
California who own lands in Texas,
among others q son of Eli Williams. who
was raised in Harris county; his father
died many years ago at Houston. Also
the heirs of Francis Hughs, who died in
California. Also VIM. +. Wiley, or his
heirs. the Just owners of 800 acre head
right, beside many others. Doubtless
these parties know nothing of their
lands. Their fathers died when they
were young, after having bought the GER
tificates. It would afford me much sat
isfaction TO assist them in the recovery
of their lands. II you could give pub.
licity to this letter, you would doubtless
confer blessing on some of your citi-
zens who mpy be in needy circumstan-
ces.

circumstances. The bridegroom was a
returned convict, and at the time of the
wedding was awaiting his trial at the
Assizes for theft The bride had assisted
him in his thieving enterprise, and was
also waiting to be tried. On the morn
ing of the wedding the two lovers were
escorted by the police to the Roman
Catholic Chapel, where they were united
together in tho bonds of matrimony. I'm.
mediately after the ceremony the happy
pair took their departure to the Assizes
Court, where they were arraigned before
Lord Coleridge, and convicted of the
crime laid to their charge. The bride
groom was sentenced to five years penal
servitude, and the bride to six months

LEAVING LAKE VALLEY. Mr..
Levy Greenleaf, who resides at Patter.
SOB, fifty-three miles from Phoebe,
who had just arrived with his family, called
upon us yesterday, from whom we learn
that tho situation looked 50 threatening
in that section that it was thought best
by those living in the valley to remove
their families and effects to Phoebe.
Among those coming in from that section
he mentioned Henry Henning, John
Campbell and A. Praine, all bringing
their families. The men will return i'm
mediately to protect their property. He
says, to the best of his information and
belief, there are $50 Indians at Sacra-
mento Gap, and $50 at Shoshone. All
the Indians seen in the neighborhood of
Patterson were moving north, and when
questioned as to where they were going
and what was up, invariably gave an
eyasive answer. Four Indians were dis
armed at his house several days ago. 1t
was thought that about 800 men had ar
rived in the immediate vicinity of the
main body of Indians, and after first
looking to the safety of some of the
most exposed settlements. would be
ready to give them q game. He thinks
the outbreak is general throughout East
ern Nevada. Two men who went out to
nunt up the stock at Patterson are miss
ing. They were waited for six hours
much longer than was necessary for them
10 be gone, and becoming alarmed, those
ID waiting left without them. The peo-
pie from Pony Springs have not vet ar
rived but are on their way in.
A BIG SCARE. = About 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon there was big scare on
hand for an hour or two, caused by a
man coming into town almost breatbless
and reporting that body OF Indians had
been seen two or three miles out and
were moving on the town. There was =
grand rush for everything in the shane
OF arms, and to judge from the actions
OF some an attack was imminent. A
number mounted horses in hot haste and
dashed out in the direction from which
the reds were reported to be coming tc
ascertain the strength of the enemy
After making reconnaissance and ascer.
tanning the extent of the danger, the,
came back at rate that would lead one
to suppose that q yelling pack of savagef
were at their heels. The scare was
founded on nothing more than the fac,
mat i've or six Indians had been seen
snort distance from town and had beer
magnihed into several hundred. When
sne worst was known quiet was soon re
stored.

A CRY UNDER THE SEA.--In the latter
end of the last century old Port Royal
disappeared beneath the waves in an
earthquake, leaving no other memorial
behind than these few patches of reefs.
In calm and clear evenings, when there
is not ripple on the CLASSY sea. you
may look down into fifteen fathons of
water and see submerged houses, towers,
and churches, with sharks swimming
quietly in and out of the open windows
of their belfries The work OF centuries
were destroyed in a few moments by one
single convulsive throb of the thin film
on which man has lived and speculated
for ages past. An American diving com.
pany instigated in their enterprise by
tales of untold wealth buried beneath the
sea by this sudden shock, rescued no
treasures but the big bell suspended still
in the bell tower and donated the same
to the museum of the island, where it
may be seen, with many pulling in
scriptions upon it which nobody has as
yet been able to decipher.
