A White Pinsr Eaten by cannlbs1..

Tho following from the White Pine
Netr: indicates that the parties reported
some time ago ns having been served up
in tho most popular style Of the South
Sen islands, were former residents OF
that elevated region. They must have
been awful tough. -.s4~ =.
Tho news comes to US that one more
Of the favored few who were designated
to represent White Pine county in the
hnlls If the Legislature two years ago,
but who, through corrupt influences,
was defeated for that high and honor
nble position, has been swept away.
Tho ways Of Providence are inscrutable.
No. chance now for his mourning the
disrleasurc OF tho average White-Piner
by offering bills to reduce the salary Of
tho Clerk or District Attorney. The
people Of tLis county md not the natives
Of that far-distant isle, nre really the
responsible parties. Had tho genius Of
whum we spenk been duly appreciated
at the election two years ago We would
not have been called upon to chronicle
this sad event. His nnme was w, II.
james, md Ito was ruthlessly masticated
and probably digestod by the natives Of
New Guinen. The Pioche Record learns
from DR.. Alexander, "thnt DR.. w. II.
james, had lately persisted in New
Guinea, having been eaten by canni-
bNls. Some time i'll 1875 no left San
Francisco as hospital steward on an
Australian steamer. Arriving nt Mel
bourne, ho resigned his position and
started with on exploring party to New
Guinea. DR.. james and n companion,
OH arriving Mt tho islnnd, left the or
ploring party and struck out for tho in
terror OF tho country seeking for gold
diggings, when both persisted as above

The mine is prospected by vertical
