On the night of the 9th inst, at the resi-
dence of William Roddan, three miles from
Wheatland, Yuba county, California, the
room in which two young ladies, Ida Dunn
and Cora Heslep, were sleeping, was en-
tered by person unknown and both ladies
beaten nearly to death with an iron bar,
which was subsequently found on the
premises. None of the family we're awak-
ened until some time after the occurrence,
when the groans of Miss Heslep aroused the
other inmates of the house. She was found
in bed insensible, covered with blood and
wounds. Miss Dunn was found out of

bly, mutilated, an attempt having been made

Guilty between the Denver and Rio Grande
company and the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe road. 1t seems the former road
was leased to the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe company six months ago, but the

ton of the stockholders of the Rio Grande,
brought suit on the part of the state before
District Judge Bowen, at San Luis, 800
miles south of Denver, for an injunction to
prevent the Santa Fe operating the roads in
Colorado, when the Rio Grande officials
with an armed force took possession of the
office of the road at Colorado Springs and
Coal Bank. On the 18th inst, the sheriff re.
captured some of the property, driving the
invaders from the buildings at South
Pueblo. Part of the capture consisted OF
fifty stands of arms and some ammunitson.
Shots were exchanged and one man serious
ly wounded.

family, consisting of lovely wife and
blooming children six. The head of the

his spouse, bill from groceryman was
brought in and the items one by one read
to our Celtic friend by his charming
daughter. Everything was 40. K"
until TIE bottom of the account was
reached when the fair damsel enumerated

rifying rage the father exclaimed.
" Phat's that? Be jabers [ pay for no
total. Plat is it anyway?' 1t was -ex-
planned to him, but he could not be
convinced, and swore that his wife pur-
chased something which she desired to
conceal from him, and he'd be hanged if
he would pay for it. He was perfectly
willing to settle the rest of the bill. but
the total he never would pay, and to
make matters satisfactory the objection
able item was erased and Paddy con-
graduated himself that they could not
come their tricks on him.

A Scotchman's Sunday.

Queen Victoria is said by the London
correspondent of the Hartford Courant
not to understand the quality of Gaelic
piety. While staying at Loeb Maree
she wanted to 60 one Sunday to little

What is Put Into Letter Boxes

4he carriers who collect the mail from
street boxes sometimes find queer depos-
Its therein. Loose silver coins and loose
postage stamps are among the principal
discoveries, while carrier the other day
brought in handbook containing SS5
IN bills which he had taken from lamp
post box. The most remarkable instance
OF Observation-Disclosures in this direction
was the case not long since, of young
man who daily carries two leathern- bags
-one for mail and the other for money
&c. He deliberately, in fit of absrac-,
ton, walked up to box in the Boston
Post Office, and enptied the contents of
one bag, containing several bank books
and bills and checks amounting to thous-
ands or dollars, into the maiI-box, and
ala not discover his bIunder until he
went into the bank and handed the re-
celVlng teller bunch of letters. That
young mans face, it is said grew so pale
as TO trlghten every one who saw him
rushing through the streets, eyes dis
tended, and heart humping loudly in
his wretehed bosom. He was made q
happier and a wiser man on receiving
at the business Office the bank-books and
money, in place of which he gladly ten
dered his bundle of mail matter.
