Nor FOR JACoB.-Little Jake Leyen-
thai, the obliging young salesman at O..
Dunkei ~ Co.'S store, received a bit of
news yesterday morning that came
near terminating his earthly career.
The mail brought him a letter which
contained the appalling announcement
that he was a happy father, and that
another and child are as well "a could
be expected" Jake's astonishment Ut
such a bit OF news is not TO be de-
scribed. He had no recollection of
ever being married, and the intelligence
conveyed in the letter nearly upset his
reason. His amazement could not
have been greater had he been
awakened yesterday morning and
found himself To be a convicted felon
and the Sheriff waiting to lead him
to the gallows. He never would have
found ont that a mistake had occurred
but for the happy thought to examine
the postmark onthe envelope. 1t was
from New York; but a second glance
at the superscription brought relief
most unexpected. 1t was not for him,
but addressed to Jacob Leventhal,
Eureka California, and by the inadvert-
ance of the postal clerk on the cars had
been sent to this place. He inclosed
the letter in a new envelope and sent 1t
to the right man, who may appreciate
it; one thing Is certain, Jacob didn't,
HELD TIC ANSWER The examina-
ton of VIM. Bell and Jack Enright,
parties il the shooting atfray on the
4th inst, took place yesterday before
Justice Beatty at the District Court
pom. A number of witnesses were
examined. Porterfield, the man shot,

examination resulted in the discharge
of Enright and the holding of Bell in
$4,000 bail to await the action of the
Grand Jury. lie succeeded in furnish
ing the required amount OF bail and
was released from custody. Porter
fields wounds are not of "a dangerous
character, though one, caused by a
bullet penetrating the muscle of the
right arm, is rather painful and will
be liable to contine him to his for
some days.
THE THEATER.-" Under the Gas
light" the best play that has been
presented by the Star Combination
during its season here, was repeated
idse night. Inc d~tttuudilC6 was Idtiti
light, but the piece gave entire salts
faction to all present. The pier scene
and the train of ears dashlng across
the stage took immensely. Tonight
the beautiful Irish drama Of "kath-
leen Mavourneen" will be presented.
This is a splendid drama, interesting
in its plot, a fine distribution of char
acters, and should draw a large house.
Reserved seats can be secured during
the day of Il. Durkee, Postotlice build
ing.
