Iov,uo facts in regard to the killing OF
man by the Indisnp some six weeks ago.
a, Pah Rock Springs, about eighteen
miles from Hike, from a man who ar.
rived here from Psbranagat Valley the
other day. Brutus," an Indian who
has been working around Hike fora long
time, informed the settlers of that place
that the Indians had killed man at Pah
Rock Springs, while wrapped up in his
blankets asleep. and taken long buck
skin purse from his body filled with big
cold money (20.doilar piecss) and one
little gold piece After killing the man
the Indisns dragged the body some dis
TANGO III among the pine trees and burned
il. thus destroying all clue to their guilt.
The truth OF Brutus story is substanti.
a,sd by the fact that Indiana have ap-
nsared in and around Hike with 20.dollar
niec.s to have ohapg-d. The Indians in
the neighbor hood of Pah Rock Spring are
rsnegades from the Moapa reservation
and very seldom hang around tho settle
mepts. but are O band of despsrado-s
who livs off of plumber. and the trail BY
Pah Rock Springs is very dangerous
one for white men to travel. This band
are oil we'll armed, principally with Win
chester rifles, and 10 composed OF the
remnants of Tenn Piute Bills band, who
killed Roberts and another man from
Phoebe, wounding the third, who es-
oap-d with bullet ia his left shoulder,
while en- route for Panamint in the
Spring Of rs After the murder of these
IN search was made in that vicinity
and the bones of two other white mon
were discovered buried in the rocks, but
since then tho Indians have taken to
burning the bodies Of thsir victims, de.
stroying all traces OF their bloody deeds.
There has been several disturbances
out in that neighborhood since then,
and one time the troops stationed at Fort
Cameron. Utah, in the dead of winter.
were compelled to march from there to
Pahranagat Valley The Government
ought to station troops in the vicinity
where all these deeds are committed,
thus protecting the travellers and pros.
pectors as they pass that way, and teach
these Indians that they must stop Killing
whit. men whenever they take a fancy
to. Fort Cameron, ut Beaver, in thick
~ settled country, where there are no
Indians, is PERFECTLY useless in every
respect. except to assist in supporting
the Mormons. the very people who have
sworn to lnjure the Government in any
and every way they possibly could, ought
to be abandoned aud the troops taken
from there aud stationed somewh-rs in
the vicinity OF Hiko, where they will be
OF service in protecting the lives OF the
whites.

A NOVEL STEAL Some few days ago
man named Swlndle loaded 900
pounds of Hillside bullion at Bristol.
valued at 81 200. for York. Utah. When
within four days travel of York his team
animals, but upon his return to the wagon
he found the bullion gone. Now. what
person can do with that quantity OF
unrefned bullion, and with company &
mark upon it. cannot be imagined. This
is the irst instance of the kind evt !
known to occur; but it is thought that
some person has stolen it with the fool
ish idea in view of attempting to smelt il
down and dispose of it to some out Of
of the way smelter.
