After protracted illness and much suffer
ing, poor Charley Muller died at his brother
house yesterday morning. Dropsy of the
heart, we believe, was the fatal disorder.
The funeral will take place to-day from the
Catholic church. The surviving brothers,
Jacob and Victor, have our hearty sympathles
On Sunday last large number of Washoe
Indians, male and female, started off on their
annual pine nutting mission 6he procession
presented rather grotesque appearance; es-
pecially the peculiar and original positions
which the bucks assumed on the hurricane
decks of their scrubby little bronchos. The
souaws with their offspring buckled to their
backs were permitted to trudge on behind,
afoot Now some evil minded people might
think that that is piece of objectionable self
ishness on the part of the males. 1t is not so;
the males ride and let their mahalas walk be-
cause they do not want to expose their prec-
ious persons to the danger of falling from
horse and thereby mourning heavy doctors
and apothecary's bill. We always will cor
rect false impressions when it is in our power.
Mr. John P Meder is engaged in the COM
position of some new dance music. The
rerson we speak of this is because we feel
confident it will give pleasure to our music
loving readers who have heard his former
productions. There is something won derfully
piouant and charming to the cultivated as
well as to the uncultivated musical ear in his
airs He is very original, and his recent
efforts, which have been published, are meet
ing with popular welcome everywhere. MIR.
Meder has exhibited a brilliant aptitude for
the prediction of stirring and merltorlous
dance music and it is to be hoped that he
will not permit his genius to lie dormant.

At four o'clock yesterday afternoon
drunken Indian, mounted on cayuse raced
through the street at a lightning speed; while
the horse was running at gait OF about 20
miles an hour this drunken child of the sage
brush performed some breath catching evUlu-
tions on his back, Chief Butts, whose
favorite amusement is to gobble offenders
against the riding and driving ordinance,
made no efforts to gather Mr.. Indian into his
fold. The cause is an insufficiency of
insurance on the life of the Chief.
CURRY ENGINE CoMPANY-A meeting was
held last evening at the Warren Engine house,
by the members of the old Curry Engine
Company to consider a proposition made to
them by the City Trustees to reorganize.

ascertaining the pulse of the market, and
believe that if Justice has the merits which is
represented by the insiders, a grand and
glorions market is inevitable.
