VALUE OF AN INDIAN.-A Del Norte
man had place on Smith River which
he claimed rs fishery. The Indians
fishing along the stream stopped here to
spear the salmon and were driven away.
One day the man loft home leaving the
fishery in care of his boy. Shortly after
an old Indian came and the boy after tell
Ing him to leave went and got a gun and
shot him. OF course this raised a grea
commotion among the Indians who at
first threatened to kill the boy, but finally
agreed to compromise if paid $500. This
sum the parent probably thought was
more than a dead Indian was worth and
refused to settle. The boy was arrested
by the authorities and held to answer to
the next Grand Jury, with pretty fair
chance OF taking n "trip to San Quentin.

HELD To ASswER.-The Grand Jury
of Shasta County summoned to inquire
into the Schroeder murder case failed to
find any indictment in relation thereto
After the Grand Jury adjour ned Sheriff
Hull swore out a warrant against j. Hill
brant, charging him with the crime.-
Hillbrant was taken before Justice Knox
where he waved examination and was
committed to answer to the next Grand
Jury. The murder of old man Shroder
was most cowardly and brutal one and
for time it seemed so shrouded in myc
terry that it was thought the perpetrators
would escape detection. 1t appears that
the officers think that they have a clue
and if it be the right one we hope it will
be followed to the bitter end.

powerful engine, rock, sand, gravel and
everything was sucked up from tho bot
tom Of the river and deposited in sluices

Is a New RoLE.-Tho fertility of the
mind of "the heather Chinee," when it
comes to studying out ways and means to
gain little surreptitiously, is becoming
more and more manifest every day. A
few weeks ago one at Los Angeles raised
a check from one to six hundred dollars
and came to grief. Now one Of them
who has been in the employ OF Wells,
Fargo & Co., at San Francisco, is detect
ed with more than thousand letters in
lis possession, taken from the letters as
they came in. Many, in fact nearly all
OF these letters were valuable ones, con
tanning checks or drafts, or small sums OF
money. His knowledge Of the English
language was so limited that he had made
no use Of the drafts, and they can be sent
to their destination.

gresham Luttrel for copy of his bill to
donate the lG and 36th sections OF miner
al lands to the State of California for Ed

if the mineral lands are to be sold, the
same theory of reasoning which gives the
State two sections in each township OF
farming land for the education of its
children, should apply to the mining
lands also.
