Ansley Gray's Troubles.

Ansley Gray will not hehere to appear
as contestant for McBride's claim. His
life in the Black Hills is making return
impossible. He went to Deadwood upon
the request Of lawyer, who wrote him
that he carried certain court of the Hills
in his hip pocket and that they could
carry everything before thena in that par
lor OF justice, law and equity Gray,
however, panned our so poorly that the
Deadwood lawyer kicked back and
wouldn't take him in. The Deadwood
man had got the idea that Gray was a
tremendous fellow. Whenti ilehad secured
him, he found lac was something else.
This issue seems to have broken Gray's
heart, and he now threatens the publica-
ton OF the lawyers confidential communi-
cation. Meantime Gray has been whip
ped. thrown out of saloon, and kicked
twice while taking breath on the side.
walk. The last kick laid open his cheek.
This little affair has been asweet morsel
for the papers J. II. Gray, an ex-stage
man in the Hills, writes to the Times that
lit was the other Gray who was chewed
up and spit out of a saloon,, He appears
to he a better man than A1sley, the law
giver. ,'.g Z

came ashore about six miles above Bis
marck to cook lis: supper, leaving his
Winchester rifle in his skiff. In a few
minutes he heard report, yell, and the
exclamation, "A heap bad !" and running
to the. boat he found q sfelonious Rec buck
rolling on the grass and cursing the God
who made him. sEss4 sai ~
The savage had attempted to steal the
gun, grabbing it by the 'muzzle, when Di
vine Providence gave an extra jerk at tile
trigger, causing the gun to go off: The
bail entered the redskins knee and rang
ing upward to- the thigh, inflicted what
Mr.. Gerard thinks to be a mortal wound.
The Rec had squaw with him, who gave
the plausible excuse that they thougM; no
one owned the gun. She called four
bucks and three squaws from their cam p
in the neighborhood, and the outfit
straightway entered upon the manufae-
ture of medicine. sJpt tsss ~
