THE RECENT HOMICIDE AT
go

Mondays Reveille gives the follow
ing particulars of the killing of VIM.
j. Kelley, mention of which was made
in yesterdays SENTINEL:
About 8 O'Clock last night a stabbing
and shooting scrape occurred on &C.
dar street between VIM. j. Kelley, late
night Waterman in this city, and q
woman named Adelia Davis, in which
Kelley was stabbed through the heart
and almost instantly killed, and AIDE
LA Davis shot through the thigh. As
neal as we can find out, the origin of
this tragedy occurred on the race track
yesterday. 1t seems that Adelia Davis
and Molly Cotton had a quarrel which
ended in a rough and tumble fight,
and that Kelley separated the two com
batants. After the races were over the
parties returned to this city, and at the
time indicated above q pistol shot was
heard in the direction of Cedar street
which caused q crowd to rush that
way. Arriving in front of Ralph
Woodward's saloon, Kelley was found
on the ground in a pool OF blood. and
upon investigation it was a~scerlained
that he had been stabbed through the
heart. He was not long suffering, as
he died a few minutes after the crowd
gathered around him. The woman,
who claims to have been shot by KEEL
ley, ran into Woodward's saloon,
where she remained until after an ex-
animation of her wound was made by
the physician, and was subsequently
taken to her residence. This seems to
be a very complicated case, and we
find it impossible to get at the facts.

HEAVY FAILURE IN THE PA.
N CIFIC STOCK BOARD. esf4

lb1saStrOus SOnSequ ence reared
We received last night the following
dispatch from San Francisco:
The community interested in stock
was astonished to day by the failure OF
ID. G.. Scofield * Co., the heaviest op-
orators in the Pacific Board. Atten-
ton was first called to the affair by the
Strengthening Of their stock in the
board, and inquiry soon disclosed the
fact that the firm had failed for about
$500, 900, az as can be estimated.
Their check of 100000 given to Berry,
Wolfskill IL Co. for one thousand
shares of California, was dishonored
to-day, and it is understood that many
other member oftbe Pacific Board will
suffer heavily by the failure. Among
these are Callaghan, Lynch & Co., of
the San Francisco Board, who are esti-
mated to be in for about $4,000. The
firm is SAID to be 9 long" on every
thing, having purchased heavily at the
top prices of the pastfew days. Among
the transactions reported are 5000
shares of Justice, for which they paid
$27 so. 1t is feared that the failure may
play havoc with the market to-mor-
row; but at present nothing can be
stated definitely as to the extent to
which the collapse may involve others
and, consequently, the market in gen.
aral.

AGAIN.-T. j. Maupin was tried yes
terday in the Police Court upon a
charge Of assault and battery upon
Aiken. A jury of twelve loyal
citizens was impaneled to try the Ease
and with the usual result. At II
o'clock last night they hai
tailed to agree upon a YER

lice Courts within the last six days.

THE JAcKsoN.-Some time ago a
body of ore was struck in the Jackson
mine between the 300 and 460-foot lev
els. The discovery was made in a
Wine connecting the two levels, but
with the exception of running a drift a
short distance, no prospecting work
has been performed to ascertain the
extent of the deposit. The work ofex-
tracing the ore will, however, com
mence to-day, and those who are ia
miliar with the ground are confident
that a larger body will be developed
than has ever heretofore been struck in
the mine. The ore which has been
taken out is of a good quality, averag-
ing over a hundred dollars to the on.
Should the extent of the deposit equal
the expectation of the Superintendent
a track will be laid TO the shaft from
the Eureka Consolidated Company's
railroad, and the ore taken to the furn-
aces of that company for reduction.
A SAFE FOR THE JUSTICES OFFICE.
The grand jury, in its report, which
will be found in another column, re-
commends hat a safe be purchased by
the county for the Justice Office in this
town. The suggestion is a good one,
for there are Judgments recorded there
amounting in the aggregate to more
than twenty thousand dollars.
They are recorded in half a dozen diff
ierent books, and in case of fire it is
more than probable that a portion of
them at least would be either lost or
consumed. Moreover, any persons
interested in having the dockets de-
stroyed could easily gain access to the
room in which they are kept, and some
better provision should be made for
their safety. r.v

The Only Way to get Reform.
Charles Francis Adams in q recent
letter says:
The experience of the last eight
years of shameful profigacy in the di-
rsciien of public affairs, beginning with
the history OF the Credit Mobilier and
concluding with the exposures made
during the last session of Congress,
points to but one safe result to be ar
rived at in the present election. That
result is a Thorough change of Admins
tration. I, for one, ara tired OF CON-
promises with corruption and pledges
Of future amendment, while the same
fatal influences that have brought us
to disgrace continue in the ascendant.
