A Disastrous Runaway.

Frank Burie, generally known as
"Dutch Frank" who hauls wood with
one pair of horses, had a disastrous
runaway about 8 80 o'clock yesterday
evening. As has been his habit for q
long time, after selling his load of
wood he went from one saloon to an
other drinking beer until he was very
drunk. Just before the accident he
got on the wagon, drove up on High
street little distance above the pla.
IA, turned about, and the team then
ran back to the plaza, where Frank
turned them SO short that he was
thrown to the ground and stunned to
insensibility. The team turned down
Second street, sped on across Main
street, and on entering the roadway
between Walter & Co.'s store and the
Pioneer saloon the near horse struck
one hlnd leg against piece OF iron
and cut it nearly of. At the same
moment the wagon turned over and
the team was brought to q halt.
When the outfit was righted up it
was found that no other damage was
sustained. Of course the wounded
horse WAS shot.
Frank was carried to the house of
George Foote, and though he had not
returned to entire consciousness when
We went to press, it was thought he
was not seriously injured. The only
thing extraordinary about the whole
matter 10 that Frank has not been
killed long ago.

Bodie News Items.
From the STANDARD Of Wednesday. |

From tine Stenoefo OF WeoneSoayJ
From our detailed report it will be
observed that better progress has
been made during the past week than
for any like period since last fall.
This may be ascribed to many causes,
but principally to the reason that
every mine IL DESTROYS Of developing
its ore body and getting on the dump
the material from which will be ex-
tracted the wherewith to keep the
wheels Of progress turning. The
Standard on the 26th nit. shipped
one bar valued at 1884, making
the second shipment this month, and
q total of $34,701 O8.
Excellent progress has lately been
made in sinking the Real del Monte
shaft, at Aurora. 1t has now attained
a depth Of $50 feet, and is cutting
into a ledge Of considerable magni-
tude. The quartz look, very favora-
BILE. and interesting developments
may shortly be exported. As this
shaft has now fairly cut into the great
mineral belt, its progress is anxious
ly watched by all residents OF that
camp.
The Standard new shaft has At
tanned depth of $50 feet; the Black
Hawk incline, 222 feet; the Baltimore
American new shaft, $50 feet; the
Bechtel shaft, 425 feet; the Red
Cloud Consolidated shaft, $50 feet;
the Bulwer tunnel a total length of
51s feet, and the Syndicate tunnel,

THE ANGLO.RUSS1AN WAR.
Two Bold Privateers Of Silver
City Preparing for the Fray.

Two young Capitalists of Silver
City are filed with earnest hope that
the unpleasantness between England
AMI Russia will result in "war to the
knife and the knife to the hilt.'
They see bright visions of wealth in
the rivers Of blood that will lrw on
the hotly contested battle fields--no,
not exactly In the sanguinary food,
but on the raging mainland the
spirit Of adventure leads them on 10
the brilliant career Of the dime. novel
heroes.
The young men of whom we write
are intending, in the event of war,
to go upon the high seas in FAST
sailing privateer, under letters.of.
marque from the Gar, and capture
English merchantmen with their
treasures of silver, gold, pearls, dia-
monds and other precious stones,
goods and wares. II is their inten-
ton to begin operations at the car
liest possible date after the DECLARE
ton Of war and make their pile be-
fore the sea is covered with priva.
teers and British commerce is all
transferred to American bottoms, un-
der the protecting egis of the eagle
bird.
These bold privateers have already
perfected plans for vessel that shall
be the swiftest on the seas, literally
loaded down with propelling engines
and few long-ran9e cannon. 1t is
not intended that she shall tackle
John Bulls iron clads and sink the
whole feet; OF the contrary, at sight
Of a man-0f.war, she will show her
heels to the bloody Britisher and
leave him astonished at the extraor-
dinarily short space Of time required
to put herself beyond the horizon.
But woe to the richly laden East
1ndiaman or the steamer bearing the
golden treasures of Australia and
New Zealand; woe to everything that
is unarmed and unconvoyed.
While these good young fellows
desire the protection of the Russian
flag, to keep their necks out ct the
halter if they should by any mis-
chance he captured, they are not en-
tirely devoid of an inclination to
emulate the exploits and s'me-
what wicked doings ct Captain K,dd
and other noted highwaymen Of the
high seas, and they have visions of
revels at their rendezvous in the land :.
locked harbor of some unfrequented
tropical island with the pleasures of
the hour heightened to the verge Of
enchantmeut by rivers of champagne
and the presence of sweet princesses
who have left the world behind them
TO share the dangers Of the bold cor
sairs.
Another dream iodulged 10 that
they will capture as English ship aud
find on board as passengers Lord
Somebody, Highcockslorem Of the
British Cabinet, and his two beautiful
daughters. who fail 10 love with the
bearded pirates at sight; the tender
sentiment is reciprocal, aud the ship
is allowed to proceed with her pre-
cious freight all uaharmed. Later
in the prolonged war the chivalrous
privateers are captured and thrown
into London Tower. Lord Some-
bodys daughters intercede tor them ;
they are released, raised to the peer
aye, and the curtain goes down on Q
grand tableau-four loving hearts
that beat as two.

PROSECUTING ATTORNEY.

We have had nothing to say against
Ambrose Leach, Democratic candidate
for Prosecuting Attorney. All kinds Of
tales have been told US about Mr.. Leach,
as to what manner of man he was before
he came here; but we take no stock in
such tales. Mr.. Leach has been a gentle
man so far as we know, since he has been
in Jackson. Soon after he came here,
the great Murphy temperance movement
was inaugurated in this place, and Mr..
Leach signed the pledge. We heard him
more than year ago make temperance
speech at the Baptist Church in this
place, in which he admitted that he had
been drinking to excess. If he has ever
tasted strong drink since that time we
have not heard of it, Whether it is safe
yet to risk him as q sober man, we leave
those to judge who have been long OBJ
servers of men in such cases.
Mr. Atkinson is a young man who
never did use strong drink. He is man
Of fine education, and has a good share
Of common sense. He is a lawyer much
above the average for man of his expe-
rience in the practice of the law. He has
made an efficient Prosecuting Attorney.
We appeal to all honest, fair men. even
in the Democratic party, to rebuke the
vicious, malicious lies told about Mr.. At
kinson. The Democrats boast that they
are goiug to defeat Mr.. Atkinson by 800
majority. This would have the effect to
make lying respectable, and being sue
cessful in this case, would be resorted to
in future elections. The best way is to
show liars and slanderers that it does not
pay to lie. When liars find that liar is
not to be believed even when he speaks
the truth, then character and reputation
will be held in higher esteem.
