SHOOTING AT SILVER RxEr.-Last Tues
day shooting ARRAY occurred at Silver
Reef. 1t appears that Aldolph Sultan,
who has charge of the branch business
Of The firm of Jacobs C Sultan estab-
lisbed at that place, had in his employ
young man by the name of Fred N.
Dryer, who took care of the horses. and
Mr.. Sultan discharged him on account of
abusing the animals. After Dryer was
discharged. he inform Sultan he would
'see him the next morning" On Tues
day morning Dryer entered the store
| and fired three shots at Sultan, missing
him, when Sultan ran back to the Office,
got his revolver. and commenced shoot.
ing at Dryer, three of the balls taking
effect on his person-oue in the neck,
and another in the thigh, but We did not
learn on what part of Dwyer's body the
third shot took effect. Sultan was ar
which took place before Justice Phillips
Thursday, resulting in his dismissal.
At last accounts young Dryer WAS i'm
proving.
Orr FoR CARSON George T. German,
Deputy Sheriff of Lincoln, and who has
for several years been connected with
the RoconD, left here Wednesday morn
ing to attend the judicial District Con-
vention to be held at Eureka, and the
Democratic State Convention to held in
Carson on the 23d inst. George carries
the seven votes OF Lincoln in his vest
pocket, and OF course will be kindly
treated by the various Democratic candi-
dates seeking positions on the State
ticket; but. however, George is an inno-
cent youth and very seldom gets away
from home, and we will be very thank
full to the good people of Carson if they
will take him in charge and see that he
is not led estray. We don't know,
neither are We good at guessing, but 1t is
very probable that Lincoln's vote in the
Convention will by cast for old Broad
horns.
TIE SHOOTING AT WARD.-Horaoe D:
Beene shot Jerry Quinn in Ward, Friday
evening the 18th inst. Quinn and party
were singing in bar.room, when Beene
entered the place, and being under the
influence of liquor, imagined that the
crowd were singing to insult him, and
with that impression on his mind drew
derringer and fred into the crowd, hit
ting Quinn. Both men were former resi-
dents of Phoebe. The news of Beene
shooting man will not surprise any one
acquainted with him, for while resident
OF this place he was continually drawing
his pistol on some person for one pretext
or another.
yellow FEVER FuND.--By circular
issuad by Wells, Fargo & Co. we learn
that the Office in San Francisco had re.
ceived up to September 10th $40 ,539. 20,
and sent South $40. 500, leaving bal.
anoe of $1732O on hand there. We.
Griffin. OF Phoebe. has sent from tho
contributions paid into tho Office $500,
leaving $50 on had, and several locations
around Phoebe to hear from.
JUDGING from the large number of
drunken Indians in and around Pioce at
the present time it is very probable that
they have had an attack by the political
fever. They go staggering along the
pavements, tumbling over boxes and
swearing as though they had been en-.
gagged in political canvasses all their
their lives.
IT was after the convention was over
last Saturday. and they were both lean.
ing over the rear end of the counter in
bar-room. It's hill! They lust
slaughtered me-" said one. "Yes," re.
piled his brother in distress, land there's
more liars to the square inch in Phoebe
than all the rest of the world put to-
gether."
Misunderstanding about this mine
