Destructive Avaianches In Nevada.

VIRGINIA CITY, January 18TH
About O'Clock this morking heavy
avalanche took place from the side of
Mount Davidson, which crushed in
the rear portion of house on Howard
street, opposite the old Hale & Nor
cross hosting works. Three miners
Isaac Jewell, Moses Wiley and Thos.
Champion-were sleeping in one of
the rear rooms, all of whom were buried
by snow and debris. The neighbors
aroused and began the work of exca-
waiting them. Campion was taken out
unhurt, save from exposure; Jewell
was dead when found; Wiley was alive
when taken out, but died o. moment
afterwards. Jewell was unmarried,
but Wiley leaves wife and six chill
dren, in Cornwall, England. The en-
tire house was lifted from its founda-
ton and partially overturned.
At 1920 another terrible avalance
swept down the side of Mount David
son, carrying away two houses on the
upper side of Howard street. One of
them was the residence of William
Dieble. twas swept from its founda-
ton, and the fragments were swept
down the hill two hundred yards.
Mrs. Dieble, hearing the roar, escaped
from the falling timbers, but was
buried in the snow, yet escaping I'M
hurt. Dieble was rescued badly
bruised, but will recover. The adjoin-
ing house was occupied by Fred Ben
son, the janItor of the Legislature.
His wife and two children, one an
infant three months old, were in the
back part of the house. The snow

A Singular Duel in San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, January GOTH
Yesterday morning, shortly after day
light, duel was fought near Black
Point, in which physician, resident
of this city, and former ofiice-holder
under the Federal Government in
Louisiana, who is here ON visit, were
the principals. The physician was
accompanied by a friend named Brecl-
inridge and q Mr.. Williams, of Oak
land, acted as friend for the ex-oflice-
holder. There was also a surgeon on
the ground, but we were unable to
learn his name. The arms used We're
navy revolvers. The terms were that
each party should fire until one or the
other fell. At the first fire the physi-
clan was wounded in the left shoulder,
and that ended the duel. The parties
separated and the wounded man was
taken to the office of a surgical friend
on Sixth street, where the bullet was
extracted. The physician, who was
an officer ia the Southern army under
Gen. Bragg, was instrumental in hav-.
ing the brother Of the ex-ofiice- holder
shot as a spy. The ex-oflice- holder
vowed he would be revenged on the
man who had caused his brothers
death. Soon after the war they met
iii one of the Southern States, but no
serious results followed. A few days
ago the eX-office-holder arrived in this
city on visit. He heard that the
physician resided here, and sent him
q challenge, which was accepted.
Friends endeavored to prevent the
meeting, but their efforts were futile.
The preliminary arrangements were
made, and the duel took place as al
ready stated. When the first word
was given, they took aim at each
other, but at the word "lire,u the ply
stefan shot in the air, while the other
fired directly at him. The physician
insisted on another shot, but his an
tagonist refused to fight with man
who shot in the air. When the ply
stefan found there was not to be an
other trial, he made desperate effort
to kill himself. He put a pistol to his
head, but the cap snapped. 1t is be-
lieved that the physician wants to die,
as he has been very respondent of late,
and has talked freely about suicide to
his friends

DRINKING PLACES.
What the city Fathers hni 30 Say
About Saloons.

The City Fathers had an animated
discussion yesterday concerning sa-
looms. The bond of saloon-lleepers
was raised from $500 to $4,000.
Mr. Huber was the originator of the
amended ordinance. He maintained
that every orderly saloon keeper
would be willing to give the addi-
tional bond only the evil-disposad
ones would howl. The "dead-falls, "
foul pits" and flow groggeriesn are
the curse to the community. There
the desperadoes, cut-throats and sneak
thieves are sheltered. We must shut
these places up. Councilman Huber
said that he had seen women go into
low dens on Los Angeles street, with
merely "chemisen on, and some
had less than that on.
Mr. Mascarel pronounced this stab
at poor, but respectable, saloon men.
You might as well ask them for n
bond of $4,000 as for a bond of 81, 900.
1t was merely an effort to drown out
poor men. If you want to raise the
rich saloon mans bond, do 1t; but let
the saloon-keeper alone. ~
Mr.. Leahy wanted the g. low dens "
closed, as in that case not half the
present police force would be required.
Mr.. Workman objected to Cypress
ing the poor man. Just as much dis
order occurs, just as much crime is
cone0cted III guided palaces" as In
the poor mans saloon.
Mr.. Huber insisted on the $1,000
clause. He wanted men to be able to
be out at night without having a big
navy strapped to his rear. Owing to
the bad characters sheltered at these
low groggeries, man is frightened at
night by the mere shadow of tree.
Mr.. Lichtenberger said he did not
desire to close up saloons-he occa-
sionally "took nip'' himself-but he
wanted all low dens closed. At these
little saloons, he had noticed that on
Saturday nights hard working me-
chanics were enticed within and
robbed of their weeks wages before
they had chance to go to their
homes.
The bond of saloon-men was fixed
at $1,000 by the following vote:
Ayes: Leahy, Lichtenberger, HUI
Der, iced, Mullaly, Wolfskill, Robin
SON..
Noes: Workman, Campbell, Car
mona, Mascarel, Sotello-5.
Don Mascarel reminded the Council
that the Mayor might veto the ordi-
nance, and then it would require q
two-third5 vote to make it law.
The new ordinance, besides reguir-
ing bond of $1,000 with two or more
good securities, to keep a bar, saloon
or dance-house, conditioned that the
proprietor will pay all dues and Ii
censes; keep q quiet and orderly house
and promptly suppress any disorder
III his establishment, handing the
disturbers of the peace over to the
officers of the law.

The details of the recent shooting OF
Col. d. r. Anthony, editor of the Leaven-
worth (Kansas) Times, and Postmaster of
that city, by William Embry, editor Of the
Appeal, show that the atfray was occa-
stoned by some articles Anthony had pub
lished rejecting on the Typographical
Union, its officers and members, and MIR.
Embry, of the Appeal, espoused the cause
of the Union. The feeling between the
editors grew bitter, and they nearly came
to blows several times before the tragedy
occurred. On Monday night last the edi-
tors attended Il dramatic performance at
the opera house in that city, and between
the third and fourth acts of the play Of
LEAH" Col Anthony was coming down
the steps leading from the parquette. when
he was met by Embry. Only Il few words
were exchanged when Anthony struck
Embry in the face, whereupon Embry
drew pistol and fired three shots. An
thony tottered to the top of the stairs and
sank fainting into chair. The first shot
struck the Colonel in the right breast, just
below the collar-bone. severing leading
artery and causing violent internal hemor-
rhage. The excitement occasloned by the
shooting was intense, and the officers sue
ceeded in wrenching the still smoking
pistol from the hands Of the murderer as
he was cooking it tor the fourth time.
The expression on his face was absolutely
tiendsh. His eyes glared. his face was
CHASTITY pale, and he seemed like man
altogether out of his senses. Col. Anthony
was an old time resident OF Kansas, and
was a brother Of Susan b. Anthony. He
had been prominent in local and State
politics tor many years. having served in
the Legislature been Mayor OF Leaven-
worth, Chairman of the State Republican
Committee, and acted in other official
capacities At last accounts Col. Anthony
was still alive

Every moment of delay makes your more
hopeless, and much depends on the judicous choice
of u remedy. The amount of testimony in favor OF

support the pretensions of any other medicine. See
DR.. Schencks Almanac, containing the certificates
of many persons Of the highest respectability who
have been restored to health after being pronounced
incurable by physicians Of acknowledged ability.
Schenck's Pulmonc Syrup alone has cured many, as
