FROM BODIE AND BRIDGEPORT.

F. K. Bechtsl, who is one of the pioneers
of Mono county, having lived there since
| 1862, came in on the southern stage last even.
ing From him we CLEAN that operations on
the Bullwhacker mine have been resumed
with fattering prospects. The Standard mine
is looking better than ever; the richness of
the rock increasing as they go down. The
old San Antonio mine is being worked, and
promises in time to yield as handsomely as
any mins in Bodie. The Syndicate company
are running a tunnel, and the outlook is very
encouraging. Mr.. Bechtel is no enthusiast,
yet to hear him comment upon the future of
Mono COUNTY, through its mining interests,
ones mind cannot but revert to Aladdin's cave
in the Arabian Nights. One Ignatius Con
zalez, . w0odpacker, accidentally shot him
self in the thigh, at Bodie, on Sunday. The
injury il painful. but nst necessarily fatal.
The murderer Davis underwent an examina-
ton before the Grand Jury at Bridgeport on
Monday. The result has not yet been
given to ths public. There is very little
milk of human kindness peddlcd out for
him. Tbs county court term at Bridgeport
(ths county seat) has just commenced, and

SUPPOSED CHINESE NIURDERERS
Gagged

Since the murderous assault upon two in
offensive Cinnamon, on Sunday last, officers
Stern and Ingrahan have been, without rest,
engaged in trying to ferret out some clue to
the perpetrators. Their energy was rewaded
yesterday afternoon by capturing the supposed
assassins. Ii was al first believed that the
two unfortunate Cinnamon were alone when
shot, but it now turns out (thanks to the
searching investigation Of the above named
officers, that a third Chinaman was with the
party; boy working for Captain j, W. Hay
ME The officers found this boy yesterday
afternoon, who gave them "a clue where to find
the murderers. At three o'clock All Fat
was Gagged, and at FIVE o'clock Lum Gee was
sent to keep the former company in the
County Jail Captain Haynes boy says that
he is confident that the guilty parties are now
in the custody of the authorities. He states
that he knows them well, and recognized
them as they fed from the scene of their das-
tardly conduct. The China boy makes no ex-
PLANTATION why he did not give publicity to
the fact before; but the ways of Cinnamon are
beyond finding out. The prisoners take their
arrest in a sang froid manner, apparently not
themselves much about results.

FUNERAL OF Miss CARRIE A. R1CE-The
last sad rites were performed for the late Miss
Carrie A. Rice yesterday afternoon. Funeral
services were held at the Presbyterian church,
by the Rev J. B. McClain. The ceremonies
were very impressive, and scarcely dry eye
could be seen in the church during the service
A large number Of friends followed the re-
mains to their last resting place. The pail
bearers were, F. Williams, F. johnson, L;
Hawthorne, Edgar PIERCE, from Glenbrook,
and Fred Campbell, Chauncy Dake, J. Logan,
and Geo. Hawkins of Carson.
STACKS OF CoIN.-In the vestibule of the
Mint there are stored 90 boxes of dimes, con-
tanning 1,040, 900 pieces, valued at $1O4 900,
awaiting transportation to the several United
States Sub-Treasurers on the Atlantic sea-
board. In connection with this it might be
well enough to remark that no impecunious
individuals need make an effort to get away !
with any of this treasure, as it is too well
guarded day and night to offer any induce
ments to enterprising cracksmen.
COMPLETION OF SURvEY.-The labors of the |
Anderson surveying party, pointing to an ex-
tension of the Virginia and Truckee Railway,
are now completed, and in a few days we may
be enabled to lay some interesting facts and
figures resulting from this expedition before
our readers.
CURRY ENGINE CoMPANY.-Thers will be
another meeting Of the old members of the
Curry Engine Company at s o'clock this
evening, at the Warren engine house, to
perfect an organization. These boys mean
business and We trust that they will succeed
n the accomplishment of their object.

A RAILROAD TO TINE BLACK NILS.
Gen. Supt. Clark, of the u. p, Says II
Will Be Speedily Built.

On Monday an Omaha Herald re-
porter interviewed Mr.. S. H. n. Clark,
general superintendent of the Union
Pacific, inregard to the proposed railroad
to be built by the company from some
point on its line to the Black Hills. Mr..
Clark stated that the project has been
discussed by the managers, and they
have decided that the present develop
ments of the Black Hills and future
prospect of the territory will warrant
them constructing a branch road into
these regions, but that any statement
that he could make concerning the point
from which the branch would start
would be premature. However, he felt
prepared to assure the people that the
road would be built. The company
have ordered three routes to be sur
veyed- North Platte, Sidney and
Cheyenne. When the surveys are COM
pleted the company will decide upon
which is the most feasible route, and
proceed at once to the construction of
the road.
The surveys will begin on the first of
next month. 1t will not take long to
complete the surveys and to demon
strate the most feasible route. 1t will
be to the interest of the company to
commence the work as soon as practic-
able and prosecute it with all diligence.
The company has no interest in any
of the towns mentioned beyond the
feasibility of the route from that point
to the Hills, and the route that is
shown by the surveys to be most direct,
and over which a railroad al be con
structed with the least expense, will be
the one that will be chosen.
AS to what point in the Hills will
constitute the northern terminus of the
road, Mr.. Clark said that will depend
upon the route selected. Should North
Platte or Sidney be chosen, the road
will be run to Deadwood. If they
should decide upon Cheyenne, then
Custer City will be the terminus of the
road in the Hills.

II v . son, q little son,
A boy just five years old.
With eyes OF thoughtful earnestness
IND mind OF gentle mould.

In all his ways appears;
That my child isgrsve and wise of heart
Beyond his childish years."
Fond parent, take our advice and
don't be deceived by what ''they tell''
you under such circumstances. They
will tell you or any other parent just
such trash as that, and no sooner are
they outside of the door than they give
your helpless offspring particular fits.
Instead of seyes Of thoughtful earnest

acts like he had the ricketts,; looks like
a clodhopper's child, and is as ill-man-

by feeling 'real sorry" for the mother
of such a young idiot. Be not misled
into versifying such compliments, es-
pecially about election time.

MARRIED.

Tuesday morning, Feb. 18th, at the
Catholic church i'll New Lexington, by
Rev. Father Meshenmoser, Mr.. Thomas
A. McShane, of Cheyenne, Wyoming
Territory, to Miss Celia Taggart, of
New Lexington, Ohio.
Thomas A. is a Perry county boy, a
New Lexington boy, who left for the
west several years since, and finally
brought up ON the broad plains of
Wyoming, as u ''heavy bearded cattle
man. and has cared for his herds with
interest and success. But, in some
way, after lining his pockets with the
needful, he began to have dreams of
his Perry county home and the girls he
left behind, and especially, as the Sc
quel shows, of one bright, particular
girl, more than all the rest.
We can only imagine how Thomas
A. looked upon the wild plains of the
west; but here, in New Lexington, at
tired in the best fitting ''store clothes"
he is a very handsome fellow, and we
cannot much wonder that he is the
happy groom that he is. Yet We must
congratulate him on the conquest he
has made, and the fair and sparkling
bride that he has won.

THE LARAMIE H
How the HowIing Hurricane Humpeth Itself
in It's Happy Home Wednesdays
''GensIe Breeze" in
Laramie City.

Last Wednesday was the day set by
Old Boreas for the first grand per-
Torrance of the old reliable Laramie
zephyr, for the season of ~, now open
ing. The performance came off and
the, Chronicle of that evening simply
said,
mice morning to chase hats"
The Sentinel of Thursday devoted
more space to the subject, saying:
yesterday was one of those days
when the February zephyr kindly
caresess the nose of the pedestrian and
turns its pale, classic outlines to cardi-
nal and antique purple"
When we saw the Sentinel we con-
cluded that there had been a rather
lively time over there IN Wednesday,
and we telegraphed Prof. Fitch, u
correspondent, asking for the news, but
he replied that me was busy helping to
put on the roof of the school building,
and couldn't spare time. Our anxiety
for news from Laramie was so reused
by this telegram that we hunted up
Supt. Davis and chartered a special
train, intending to go over and see for
ourselves, but we were spared the trou-
BILE by the opportune arrival of ]. Ward
Boyles, a man who boasts the blood of
Washington and who carries a hatchet,
just as we and all other honest lei do.
Boyles knew ali about the blow, and
we b%ull-dozed him at once, pencil in
hand, eliciting the following informa-
ton. The wind gates were opened
at 2 a. m, and an hour afterward every
man, woman and child in Laramie was
sitting up in bed, paralyzed with fright,
moment would be their next. The
-hoarse rumbling of large dry goods
boxes and small outbuildings, as they
hurried along before the zephyr, ming
led with the rattle of bricks upon house
roofs, as the lighter boxes went whirl-
ing high in air, demolishing chimneys,
caused an undefinable dread to surge
through the souls Of the usually calm
citizens of the doomed town. Along
about 7 a. m, there was a very slight
lull, and Il few bold men ventured out
upon the street, among them Judge
Nye, who, in the hurry Of dressing had
not tucked his pants into his boots. AS
he turned q corner he was struck by q
barrel and knocked down. The wind
surged into his bootlegs and in a jiffy
those immense leathern structures were
torn from his feet and went bowling
along down toward the railroad. One
of them struck the switch engine, over
turning it, and the other smashed in
one side of the Railroad house kitchen.
At 0 O'Clock the gale had attained
such force that citizens dared not ven.
ture upon the streets. Several drunken
tramps were blown away down into
Colorado, and a number of incautiouS
school children were carried out Of
town. At 2 p. M, when Boyles lett,
the air was full of house roofs, church
steeples, lin II of which a bell was
Changing old stoves, barns, smallframe
dwellings, cattle and horses, ETC., and
it was feared that the whole town
would be lifted and conveyed acros:
the railroad track.
We await further particulars il
breathless anxiety.

The other day when a couple board

The other day when a couple boarded
the cars at Laramie, every seat had one
Or two occupants. He pnt her into one
seat which "a in part occupied, and
he took another just opposite. The
party whom he sat with offered to sit
elsewhere so that he and his lady might
have the seat together. "Oh, it does not
matter" he replied; 1--WE are married"
The explanation was considered salts
factory.

Tho Black Hills Railroad.

The Omaha Herald deliberately pre-
v~aricates when it states that the people
of Cheyenne do not want a railroad 10
the Black Hills. The further statement
Of that sheet to the effect that petitions
protesting against making Cheyenne
the initial point of such railroad are be-
ing extensively circulated and signed
here, is a base falsehood.
Omaha, since she cannot be made the
initial point, would have it at Sidney or
North Platte, because then the people
of the Hills would be forced to pay
tribute to Omaha. Should Cheyenne
be made the initial point, Omaha fears
that the cream of the Black Hills trade
would be SKINNED by Denver. Denver
will Of curse oppose Cheyenne, and thus
lose money herself in the event of the
starting of the road from any Nebraska
WY station.
Meanwhile, let our business men
watch every point in the game-let
them see to it that the Cheyenne route
is well advertised and made the cheap,
est, as it now is the best route TO the
Hills-and there need be no fear but
that the construction of a railroad from
here to the Black Hills will he begun
within three months from this date.
