A squaw sat down on the curb in
front of the postoffice in Austin, Neva-
da, and, unrolling bundle of calico,
commenced the manufacture of q
dress. In less than an hour the dress
was finished, and putting it on over
her old clothes the squaw pulled out a
pin here, peg there, and united a
string in another place, made one step,
and, presto! the old clothes lay in the
gutter. Gathering up the rags just
shed, the noble daughter OF the forest
cast one look of triumph on the spec
tators, and skipped gracefully off in
the direction of the Indian camp. A
prominent citizen, who was an inter-
ested witness ofthe transaction, mild
ly remarked that he would give $50
if Mrs. P. G. could shed herself like
that.

Farmers are making complaint that
loose animals are depredating on the
csrnfields on Willow Creek. Horses,
mules, oxen and cows are destroying
acres of green corn.
One week from to-day, at the court
house i'm Prescott, Manuel Abiles, con-
victed at the late term of the District
Court of murder in the first degree, is
to pay the penalty of his crime by be-
ing hung by the neck until he Is dead.
A terrific thunder shower visited us
on Wednesday night and lasted two or
three hours, drenching the earth and
lighting up the sky with dazzling
glare that almost struck one blind to
look upon its vivid flashes.
Major Brayton, who commanded d
the expedition, and Capt. AL. Seiber,
who has charge of the Indian scouts
and who jumped the Indians on the
east fork of the Verde and at Red Rock

sides taking Is prisoners, have called
upon us during the week, looking none
the worse for the campaign.
A. R. Stevenson is missing. The
last known of him he was somewhere
about Hualapai, in Mojave county.
His wife lives at Santa Ana, Los

while her friends persuade her that he
has gone off to desert her. Any one
knowing anything about him will
please write to Mrs. Lucy Stevenson.

During the high water iu Granite
Creek, on Monday, little frankie Jew
ell went with other boys to see the wa
ter and drift wood running down the
stream, and while on the fOot-iog, ac-
ross the main stream, lost his balance
and plunged head-long into the boil
ing torrent. The boys were all fright
ened, made great noise but no at
tempt to save him. He was carried
down the stream some distance, some
times on top and sometimes beneath
the surface of the water, until COnroy,
who happened to be near by, saw what
was the matter and plunged in and
got him out, otherwise he must sure
ly have drowned.

1t is Not GenerallY known

That the shortest possible route between the East
and Great West is through ST. Louis, over the St
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line.
This road has gained surprising importance by
reason of immense expenditures in the last two
years, of over two million dollars besd earnings,
in improvements of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality Of steel and iron rails,
on broad new ties and by substituting for ordinary
cars new reclining chair coaches elegantly carpeted
and htted with Iessing rooms with toilet cOnven-
fences for ladies', gentlemen and families travelling
with children, t5ithout any extra charge. This line
runs six fast Express trains between the Missis-
sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any
other road, and connects with all the great Land
Grant Roads In the West and has adopted all mod
ern appliances for comfort speed and safeguards
against accidents, including night and day watch
men, who inspect the road before and after the
passage Of each train to that everything Is in
order. We recommend those contemplating trip
West TO take the St. Louis Kansas City and North
en Short Line, 1t being the only line running
through cars between St. Louis and Omaha, and
for tickets over this excellent line refer our
readers to any ticket agent selling through tickets
20 the West. For map, circulars and time tables
address either Geo. ID. Teller, Buffalo, N. Y; OF

Old Settler.

We have indulged sundry very inter
esting interviews with lady on the East
Side, whom we verify believe is the old
est settler now living in the city, if not
the entire county. We refer to Mrs.
Barney Myers, a daughter of the late
Judge Newman. Mrs. M. is about 81
years of age, and has lived here since
1814-possesses a most retentive mem
ory, is remarkably communicative, and
truly as sprightly and cheerful as dam
sci of blushing sixteen. With any one
taking lively interest in discussing the
peculiarities and novel associations of ye
olden times, Mrs. Myers viii be found
most charming society.
