water was pouring in streams through
the roof Of his house, and when asked
why he did not mend it, replied that II
was no time 10 do it when II was rain

listlessly about, was asked what he was
looking for, and replied that his corn
field was all growing up to weeds and
he was looking for his hoe, but he had
as lief see the Old Boy himself as to

without thought or care, lounges about

the cattle are breaking through or

pigs are roofing up the front yard that

offsprings gather about them for care

THE SILVERADE SHOOTING ARRAY.

scrape, chronicled in yesterdays Sentinel
Higgins, the victim, obtained contract at
the Rescue mine some six weeks ago, and en-
ployed Baricci to help him. The mans work
not proving satisfactory he discharged him
last Sunday, and came into town for the pur-
pose of employing other help. On his re-
turn he put Barracks blankets out of the
cabin and enstalled the other man in his place.
About o'clock in the afternoon rap was
heard on the door, and Higgins opened it.
He was confronted by Baricci who exclaimed
you s. of b, you'll put my blankets
out of doors will you" at the same time draw
ing pistol and shooting Higgins through the
left lung, the ball coming out at the back

the wounded man, informs US that the victim
will probably die Baricci left the place some
20 minutes after, stating that he was coming
to Eureka to give himself up to the proper
authorities, but he evidently missed the road,
or reconsidered his determination, and made
off for parts unknown. As the shooting took
place in White Pine County, our officers do

THE TRUE STORY OF MAZEPPA.

In the church of st. Mary is to be seer
the tomb of Mazeppa, the famous hetman Of
the Cossacks, immortalized by Byron. His
adventures, sung by the bard, were in reality
much more common place than as we have
learned to know them. Mazeppa was a
young Cossack of the Ukraine, who, having
been ennobled by the Russians, declined to
pay his taxes. For this the local Governor,
Count Talboski. ordered him to be stripped
naked by his servants and tied to the back
of his horse with his head to the animal
tail. The horse was then fogged, pistols
were discharged close to his ears, and after
being thus excited he was turned loose. The
road leading to Mazeppa's house was a bri-
dial path leading through the woods, which
were particularly fertile in thorn and bushes
and wild pear trees, and the Infatuated beast,
accustomed to follow this route before,
dashed off as soon as he was at liberty home
ward, where his master arrived very much
the worse for his journey. He had, however,
enough strength left to call for the gate
keeper who recognized his voice and opened
the door to close it Immediately to keep out
what he supposed to be Mazeppas ghost. At
last other servants, recovering from their
fear, came to his assistance and put him to
bed, where he remained some months be-
tween life and death from the injuries he had
received. When he recovered he exiled him
self voluntarily to Poland, and joined him
self to the fortunes of Charles XII, was
wounded at Pultowa, and dying at
Barnitza, his body was brought to be buried
at Galatz.

HAYES DESERTED.

Some months since the MORNING APPEAL
ventured the prediction that before Congress
had been long in session Hayes would be
without any friends-that nobody who val
ued his reputation as publicist could afford
to be known one of his supporters. At
this time the Independent press of Califor-
mia was all for him, as also were many of the
Republican papers there. Notable among
these were the Spirit of the Times and the
Argonaut Now both of them have repudi-
ated him. Pixley is chewing the bitter cud of
disappointment Boruck's milk of-well,
his milk, no matter what it is of-has turned
sour. And now the Stock Exchange. Says
the latter: owe want new President.
Hayes is gradually losing cast, and the inn
preston is growing that before the end of
his term he will have become nerveless
nonentity glittering generality moth
ing Even Frank Pixley goes back on him,
So do we, and both helped to elect him. Let
us have change. We would not yield the
palm to Tilden, because he is TOO self -opin-
donated too selfish too egotistical. We
want a man of opinions, but moderate in the
expression of the same a man of enlarged
ideas, who would labor for the welfare of all
the people. We have such a man in our
minds eye-one who is willing and anxious
to serve. We nominate Dennis Kearney, of
California, satisfied that he would be fitting
substitute for R. B. Hayes, as the thing
looks"
Gladstone is reported as saying that, as u
rule, it would be as rational to begin training
for the ballet at 45 or 90 as for the real work
of the Cabinet. He deplores "the rapid and
constant advance of the money power in Par
lament, and the reduction to almost zero of
the chance of entrance to Parliament for men
who have nothing to rely on but their talent
and their character" Mr. Gladstone has on
more than one occasion stood up boldly for
what are called "pocket boroughs, inasmuch
as they were the only means by which young
men of talent without political influence could
get a seat. Thus Pitt owed his first seat to
Sir James Lowther, whom he not long after
made an Earl; Macaulay to Lord Landsdowne,
who returned him for Calne; and Gladstone
himself came in on the Duke of NEWCASTLE

William Dooley, an amateur detective in

Loss of the Steamer City of San
Francisco

National Associated Press to the Star.
SAN FRANCISCO. May 3l.-A San Diego
dispatch confirms the loss of the Pacific
Mail Steamship City OF San Francisco'
She lett Panama May II with one hum
dred and thirty-seyen passengers. On
the sixteenth. day, bright atmosphere
and clear, she struck a reef, cutting
hole in her six leet long, and the water
rushed in with fearful velocity. The
ship was then six miles southwest from
Starters Shoals and thirteen miles from
shore. The Captain and officers were
calm. and as soon as the ship struck
orders were given to get the boats and
llfe-preservers ready. Captain Waddel
says the steam pumps, capable OF throw
ing sixty pounds per minute, were ab.
soIutely useless, as the whole bottom Of
the ships stern had dropped out. He
has steamed over the spot repeatedly,
and his only conjecture is that the late
earthquake has upheaved the submarine
rJcks. In q little over an hour after
striking tue ship was under the waves,
and grounded on a sandy bottom. Next
morning pant OF her stern was seen out
of water. The reef upon which she
struck is not down on any chart.
