Last Saturday Mr.. Hughes, On old
and we'll known resident OF Washoe
Wiley was shot and seriously injured
by Frenchmnn who mislook. him for
fox. We have the particulars in "a.
gard to the rather curious affair from
George NJ. Nicher OF this city, who
was over ut Washoe lake Oh n hunting
expedition.
it appears that the old gentleman,
Mr.. Hughes, he'd good thing On the
ducks. lie Ind found n SMALL popd
where he could bag thea by the dozen.
FMS was place cxcNvGted at tho time
OF tho erection of tho old ophir mining
works--a largo pit scooped out in dig
ging clay for the manufacture of
bricks. at this plhce he had killed no
less than forty-six ducks at three shots.
This success induced him 10 construct
regular "bliDd" i'll which to lie in
wait for Lis fenthored prey. Tho
"biind" was made by digging hole
md planting about it n screen of sarc.
Drush' willows, and woods, having n
small opening through which to watch
the pond.
Whilo Mr.. Hughes WINS lying in his
hiding place last Saturday, q French
innn from Franktown, who Ia q preat
hunter, and who, It appears, also know
OF tho "gamcy flavor" of the pond, hap.
pencd along. Ho saw no ducks on IN.
WATER but soon caught sight Of Mr..

"blind." Tho old gentleman has "a
long white beard and wears n fur oap.
