Needles, better known as the Sage
brush Tragedian. has been registered at

lively. Hence his engagements are
short and his ''drunks" long. He
spends most Of his time In travelling
from place to place. A saloon Is his
favorite haunt. He entertains the mul.
titude by declarations, Rotations and
character sketches, humorous and grave.
At one time his auditors will be con-
vulsed with laughter; at another they
will be moved to tears by his really won
derful elocution. II Is all the same to
Needles" and ends by his getting
~gloriously drunk. Nature made him q
genius; his social disposition made him
a tipplsr. Vice has t%riumphsd, and the
oncs gifted man Is now q human wreck.
Needles called at the News Office this
afternoon and levied an assessment OF
90 cents. His nose was skinnsd. his
face black with smoke and dirt. and his
entire wardrobe In o most d~splorable
condition. Az the ~tragedian's name
does not appear among the arrivals II Is
fair to presume that the great man
hoofed il over the grade, or that he
made his way hithsr by means Of the
friendly but dangerous brake.bar.

the incline Of the Sierra Nevada and
was horribly mangled. His left thigh

~protruding from the flesh and the
saphsna artery being severed. lie blsd
proiusely before be was taken to st.
Mays Hospital, and tho surgeons were
summoned. His right leg had also
both bones broken below the knee, and
his head and face were badly bruised.
He cannot recover.
Exactly how the accident occurred Is
not known, even by those nearest him.
Blasts had been put of In the bottom
Of the incline, and one man who was
lowered to examine reported oil right.
Three besides Trempenbarthy were then
lowered by the giraffe. which. however,
stuck about 20 feet above the bottom.
Before notice could be given to the
engineer some slack had been given to
the cable. II Is supposed that Trsm-
psnbarthy then got out OF the giraffe,
when the obstruction gave way, with
the results already mentioned.
He now lies at the hospital In a coma

geons think he cannot long survive his
