CELESTIAL DOMESTIC DIFFICULTIES. About
o'clock last evening some Of the most dis
cordant yels that ever greeted the civilized
human ear were heard in the vicinity of
Ormsby and Third streets. Upon investigation
il was ascertaned that there had been ''bust
up" in Chinese family. Two stalwart China
men were Juggling away at female OF that
nationality, one pulling north and the other
tearing her south. The one who was pulling
in a northerly direction, and who from all APP
pearances, and from the flow of the CONVEX
sation between the parties-very ungrammat-
ical Chinese, ndeed-seemed to be the favor
lite, informed our reporter that the woman was
his wife, and that he married her ''mellcan
fashion" The other declared that he had i'm
ported her from China and paid $500 for her.
While our reporterwas in aquandry as toade-
cision in the matter, and before he could ar
rive at any conclusion, the Chinaman who
seemed to possess the affection of the Celestial
dame, tore her away from his rival and with
her made tracks for Chinatown, closely fol-
lowed by the other. This matter will in all
probability result in a pitched battle in the
local Celestial regions. The thing cannot
begin too soon to satisfy the V. A
BAD BoYS.-Complaints have reached this
office that there are number of bad boys i'll
the northern part of the city who make a
practice of knocking fruit off the trees in
the gardens i'll that vicinity with sort of
boomerang, and then climb over the fences
and steal the same We warn those boys to
desist from that sort of business. Stealing
fruit is az bad as stealing anything else.
Should they, however, not heed this warning
and any more complaints against their con-
duct reach us, we will publish their names,
which are we'll known to US.
RUmoRs. During the early part of yester
day this city was alive with all manner of
political rumors respecting the action of the
State Convention at Eureka. In each and
every instanse however, when the rumor was
traced to its fountain head it was ascertained |
70 be a canard. The originators of these ly |
ing reports undoubtedly thought they were
doing smart things by trying to gull their &C
dusintances but in this particular they de-
ceive themselves, for no one can see anything |
witty nor humoristic in an out and out lie
STREET MAsoUERADING.-Duri the past !
week OF two, i'll our rambles about the city at
night, we have at divers times met young
men and women attired in the apparel of the
opposite sex. Only few evenings since
young man attired in female apparel passed
the OrmsbY House as early as o'clock. This
incorporating may only be suggested by a
vein of merriment but if We are not in error
there is All ordinance prohibiting that sort of
sport, and that ordinance ought to be respec-
ted as much rs any other.
GONE TO BoDIE.-On the stage yesterday
bound for Bodie was William Welch, a regu
lar old-timer on the Comstock. He was one
of the first superintendents of the Gould d
Curry mine, and is a practical miner OF as
much valuable experience and information as
any on the coast The object of Dir. Welchs
visit to Bodie is for the purpose of examining
mines for San Francisco capitalists and re-
porting on the same
