Piute Barbarity.
Tapp.

On Thursday last a medicine woman
of the Piute tribe, who had been living
near Bridgeport, was shot to death by
three buck Indians On Friday morning
the chief of the tribe called upon Judge
Whitman and related to him the circum-
stances of the killing. The medicine
woman had failed to cure a sick child Of
the chief, and this being the third pa
tient who had died ON her hands, she
was condemned to death. Two young
men assisted the father of the dead child
in carrying out the edict of the law. She
was removed to a short distance from
from the camp and shot, the three shoot
ing her with one or more balls from six
shooters. The object of the chiefs visit
to Judge Whitman was to procure a
coffin in which to bury his child, he not
liking the rude mode of burial more
generally adopted by the savages. The
Judge kindly furnished coffin that
had been around the Courthouse for
some time awaiting tenant. The child
was buried with great ceremony, all the
members of the tribe attending the flu
neral. The old medicine woman was
buried without coffin, hole being dug
two or three feet deep, and she tumbled
into it in every day attire. This is the
third case of indian justice being car
ried out that has come to our knowledge
in few weeks, yet we fail to hear of any
arrests.-Bodie Gal Standard.

Electricity in Surgery.

A lady living in Allston, who was
troubled with some affection Of the
throat, took trip South, and on her
way back consulted an eminent ply
stefan in Baltimore, who said that a
tumor had formed inside her windpipe.
On reaching home the statement was
confirmed. 1t was with great difficulty
that she could swallow any thing. and
her breathing became INSTRUCTED. Ii
was decided that the tumor must be re-
moved, though such an operation as
taking a tumor from the inside of the
windpipe was unknown, and an instru-
ment must be invented for the purpose.
A tube was put into the windpipe below
the diseased spot, and the throat sub
jected to course of education" for
the operation. An instrument was de-
vised, having at the end combination
of claws, which could be worked from
the other end, so as to close firmly over
the tumor, and an arrangement was
made for passing aeurrent Of electricity
through the instrument. In due time
the operation was successfully perform
ed by gently pressing the instrument
down into the windpipe. firmly clasping
the tumor in the claws and burning il
out by the electric current. 1t was
drawn out, and the lady, who under
went the ordeal without the use OF any
ansestketic, was doing well at last ae-
counts BOSTON Herald.

halter and the horses lower jaw and
still further retarded his biting. The
friends of Tapp called for . gun, but
there was no gun, and what is remarka-
BILE in a collection of two hundred Cali
fornians, no one had revolver, Or the
murderous brute would have been shot
dead instantly. The horse and Tapp
continued fighting half way around the
ring. Wooden on the seats outside

forts with the pole. The spec
tators on the front seats also did all
they could to distract the man-eater's
attention, one lady seizing the crutch of
man sitting next her, and beating the
horse over the head with it. By the aid
of these distractions Tapp was enabled
by degrees to draw his arn through the
horses jaws, the horse chewing it i'm
partially as it slipped away from him,
until finally it was entirely withdrawn.
The crowd shouted to Tapp to jump for
his life, but the plucky trainer called for
his whip, and with his mangled left arm
dangling by his side, so tickled the fet-
locks of Cogniac that that enterprising
animal was again in what Tapp fondly
calls subsection. Last evening the
trainer was in the stable office with a
friend pouring an odorous liniment over
his bandaged arm, and the man-eater,
with all his evil passions inflamed with
the taste of blood, was romping around
his prison and eagerly reaching up for
a mouthful of any timid spectator that
ventured near enough to look down at
him. The people will continue to look
forward with interest to the solution OF
the problem of whether Tapp will tame
the Inan-eater, or the man-eater tame

Best Divorce Time on Record.

A District Judge, not a thousand
miles from Salt Lake City, on certain
Saturday joined two persons OF respecta-
bility together in the bonds of matrimo-
ny. The Judge did his best to fasten
them, and the parties were plant as low
ing natures could be. On Sunday morn
ing, however, the married gentleman
sought the Judge, laid complaint
about the newly made bride, and averred
with all earnestness and sincerity that
they could never 1--we together as man
and wife, and must therefore be sepa-
rated forthwith, as the only good thing
that could be done for both. His honor
expostulated, and used his greatest pow
srs and influence to dissuade the parties
from separating. Both the gentleman
and lady were determined on separating
at once the conjugal knot. On Monday
morning, in chambers, the petition or
complaint for divorce was filed; in ten
minutes the summons was served; in half
an hour further the answer was filed,
and the parties appeared in Court, or
chambers, ready for trial. The case was
heard forthwith, and a divorce decreed
strictly in accordance with law in every
particular. Married by law on Satur-
day, separated by law on Monday.-San

HOW HE SPENDS HIS MONEY.

The "Colonel" had occasion, when
my informant was there, to go to the
nearest large town on commercial BUSH
ness. He travels in q style correspond
ing in lavishness with the extent of his
own broad estate. The spending-mcney
for the trip was contained in Is or 20
bags of considerable size, filled with
gold and silver coins. On arriving at
the little town he threw out these bags
on the ground with careless unconcern,
and directed the hotel man to take care
of them. They were slowed away by
the landlord with equal carelessness be-
hind the bar on the floor, as if they were
so much pig-iron. useless as pocket
money and difficult to be carried away.
The occupant Of an adjoining room the
next morning found drifting about the
floor in dark corner a wad of brown
paper, which, upon picking up, he dis
covers to be roll of greenbacks, "a, $50
in amount. He knocked at the door of
the rancher, and asked ii he had lost
any thing. The reply was that nothing
had been missed. His friend showed
him the brown roll, when King replied,
swell, vow. III bet that is my roll
of greenbacks. 1t amt in my pocket,
sure" He spent $4,000 on that trip.
King pays his taxes with great regu-
larity, and takes special pains to aid the
Assessor to make his assessment. 1t
takes several days to get the herds to-
gether in order that they may be assess
ed and valued. With all his vast estate,
King has very little idea of business in a
commercial sense, and is easily guided.
He came very near losing his ranch re-
Gently through California speculator,
who almost succeeded in giving him
worthless bonds for it.
The ranchers in that country, from
necessity rather than aristocratic ten
denotes, have adopted the custom OF the
English Lords. They have their manor
houses or ranches in the country, and
maintain besides residence in town.
The dangers of the border country are
so great, travel is so beset with peril,
and the conditions of human life are 40
uncertain, that, during a large portion
of the time, the families Of the great es-
tate owners reside in the nearest town
where there is a military post

PEACE.

The king encunibercd of his crown,
In cot content, can lay il down;
The bird far faring from her nest,
Some kindly spray may rock to rest.
The lark led on through upper air,
At eve forgets his journey there;
And tn eagles eyes on glories far,
Ere long recede from sun and star.
The leaves which people lofty trees;
The snow-shed foam of tn over seas;
The rain that rings along the sky
Together meet and lowly lie.
Thou too, o Soul, striving TO soar
Each flight beyond the flight before,
Shalt, past the yexed years that yearn,
To humber haunts of Peace return.
