A MYSTERIOUS MURDERoUs ASSAULT.

| A short time before the hour when church
yards yawn on Sunday night, several pistol
shots, fred in rapid succession, were heard in
the vicinity of Dunning & Hunts lumber
yard. The reports naturally attracted the
attention of a number of men who were on
the streets at that hour. A rush was made
for the locality above named, and two China
men were found lying on the ground; one
shot through the bowels and the other in the
right hip. When questioned by the officers
who the perpetrator Of the outrage was, the
man least injured replied tlat he and his
friend were walking quietly along, and COM
ing around the corner of the lumber yard he
heard the report of pistol, and at the same
moment his companion fell. He looked a
round in fright and amazement, and as he
did so he saw the flash from pistol, heard
the report and found a ball imbedded In his
thigh. The wounded man says that he has
not the remOtest idea who the assassin or
assassins could be, as he nor his friend have
had any recent difficulties with their coun-
trymen. The wounded men were taken to
the jail, where a physician probed their
wounds. The injuries are very dangerous,
and the man shot in the bowels will in all
likelihood die. The recovery of the other vic
tim is also very questionable. The unfortu-
nate fellows were subsequently removed to
Chinatown, where they now lie. The attack
was one of the most cowardly ever heard of
in this city, and it is to be hoped that the po-
lice will soon cage the miserable villains,
whether they be white or yellow

SAD AND FATAL ACCIDENT-DEATH
OF AN ESTIMABLE YOUNG LADY.

Last Sunday party comprising six young
people started from the Glenbrook Hotel at
Lake Tahoe for an excursion to the summit
of Shakespeare peak, rugged rock, about
1000 feet in hight Among this little coterie
were young man namad William Cramner
and Miss Carrie Rice, a young lady about IS
years old, well known in Carson The party
soon reached their objective point, taking in
a view of all the beauties of nature which
their position afforded them. The frequent
outbursts of loud peals of laughter from the
young people were indicative of their happi-
ness At length Mr.. Cramner suggested to
Miss Rice to descend the steep declivity by
narrow and very precipitous path. The young
lady being in the best of spirits and possess
ing much courage, accepted the banter of her
escort, in spite of the objections made by
other members of the excursion, which were
only laughed at. This venturesome couple
had not proceeded great distance when the
young lady's foot slipped and having hold of
Mr.. Cramner's hand, they both rolled down
the precipice about fifteen feet. The gentle
man struck on ledge, forming shelf; there

tinued to roll down the steep incline to a
distance of about rs feet. The gentleman
himself and managed to reach the
rest of the party, who took the safest route
After finding her friends, who were so happy
only few moments before, they went in
ssarch of Miss Rice, whom they soon found |
lying upon heap of sharp rocks at the base
Of the peak, entirely unconscious The lady |
fell on her left side: her arms and head were
'earfulIy cut, but her most serious injuries
we're internal, as she choked to death from
blood rising in her throat. Miss Rice only
lived % minutes, and never uttered word
after her body was recovered, and was appar-
entity unconscious up to the moment of her
iemise The deceased lady was a daughter
If Mr.. Philo Rice of this city, now engaged
n business at Glenbrook. She was greatly
,steemed by all who had the pleasure of know
ng her. The body will be brought to Carson
or burial

A STAGE ROBBER CAUGHT. Mr.. James 3.
Hume, the indefatigable chief of Wells, Fargo
& Co. corps of detectives, was in town Sun
day, armed with a requisition from Governor
Irwin of California upon the Chief Magistrate
of this Commonwealth for the person OF
Abner Bryant, who was, with several older
hands at the business, engaged in a stage
robbery at certain point between Milton and
Sonora on the 3Ist of last August Through
the efficiency and shrewdness of Mr.. Hume,
the other participants in this clean little job
were apprehended few days subsequent to
the commission of their crime. A few days
since Mr.. Hume learned that a man answer
ing the description of Bryant had crossed from
the Big Trees into Nevada. He telegraphed
to the Sheriff of Douglas county in this State,
requesting the arrest of the game, should he
make his appearance there. On the est inst.
Deputy Sheriff J. C. Lupton, of Douglas,
bounced upon Mr.. Bryant, and placed him in
durance vile until Mr.. Hume arrived to claim
his young man. Bryant was brought to Car
son Sunday morning and placed in a cell in
the county jail, where he was confined until
the departure of the lightning train that
evening; when he with his official escort left
for San Andreas, Calavaras county, California
to undergo. preliminary examination.
Bryant is only % years of age, very respect
ably connected in the town to which he has
been taken for trial. His people are over
whelmed with grief at the transgressop of the
young man, who was taught to tread the
narrow road of honesty. Mr.. Hume deserves
much credit for his unfailing search for and
bringing criminals to the tribunal of justice.
RUNAwAY-Col Jacob Johnson, for many
years connected with ellison & Barber, was
driving double team near Mills station on
Sunday, when the horses got away from him,
upsettting the vehicle and throwing the Col
onel to the ground The old gentleman was
seen in Carson yesterday, none the worse for |
his accident,
Mr.. E. B. Pi1ley, County Assessor, com
pleted his assessment roll for this city and |
county yesterday and turned his papers into
the hands of the clerk of the Board Of Equal |
cation, Mr.. Pixley has done good and eff
icient work, and performed it within the
space Of time required by law.

of the deceased visited the house in which she |
was lying, to catch last sad parting |
