A FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.
THREE MEN ON HAND CAR BADLY HURT AND
ONE KILLED.

A fearful accident occurred near the Silver
City Switch at about o'clock last evening,
seriously hurting four men. The injured
parties are section men who work near Hay
wards switch. They usually quit work a
short time after the o'clock freight train
passes down from Virginia, then they take a
hand car and run down to the Silver City
switch, distance of half mile. Last even
ing the train was detained at the Silver City
switch, and the men on the hand car having
no intimation that the train would stop,
followed, and turning a bend in the road, ran
square into the train with fearful force. One
of the men, Charles Wright, had his leg broken,
and received internal injuries. He was taken
to the County Hospital in this city, but died
short time after his arrival there. A few
months ago he was badly hurt on the railroad
near Washoe, and only left the hospital
week or two since. Another, Clancy,
quite aged man, received a deep cut in his
left temple, and is also supposed to have sus-
tanned internal injuries. When brought here
his mind was wandering. John Hale, the
section boss, had his forehead bruised. Thos.
Corners received cut on the right side of
his head. Corners is the only man in the
party who has family in this city. The fifth
man, Thomas Mayne, escaped without
scratch, as he jumped from the car before it
struck. Whether or not any one is to blame
for the accident, will likely be established at
an investigation by the railroad authorities.

SCARCITY OF SILVER FOR THE MINIS. The
Carson Mint is not as busy as could be wished,
owing to the fact that the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington, is not purchasing silver
for the Western MINIS, but confines them to
such bullion as they can pick up in small
quantities. The cause assigned for this by
the Secretary of the Treasury, is that the
sellers on this coast ask more than the market
price for their silver. 1t appears that at the
present time there is large China demand,
but that want will soon be supplied, and then
the bullion sellers will be compelled to be rea-
sonable in their prices, or keep their silver
locked up, the latter they will not be very apt
to do. Eastern sellers are willing to accept
market rates, governed by the London quo
tations, hence the Philadelphia and New
Orleans MINIS can be operated to their fullest
capacity.

ALLEGED BURGLAR ARRESTED.

On Friday night officers Powers and Stern
arrested man known in this city as " Put -
who has for the past few days been working
on Helms ranch, on charge of burglary.
He is accused of having robbed Browns and
Hunts saloons on different occasions. " Put
claims that he was not in town on the night
of the Brown burglary, but there are several
good men who saw him that night. Further
more, his cane was found in the saloon by the
officers. He accounts for that by saying he
gave it to another man, and that it had been
out of his possession for some time prior to
city, off and on, for five years, and his occu-
patton has been what is called that of "check

Married Without Shoes.

About twenty years ago young fellow

his mind to be married.
"But you have not penny" remon-

not money to pay for he did without.

tried by turHs raising cattle, horses, or
gave their attention to experimental

johnson, having once found out that
sheep-raising in his district brought a
handsome profit, stuck to it. He had
that shrewdness in seeing the best way,
and that dogged persistence in following
it, which are the surest elements of sue
cess.
Stock-buyers from the Eastern markets
found that Johnsou's feeces were the
finest and his mutton the sweetest on the
Cheat. He never allowed their reDuta-

that the man who married barefooted is
