A COWARDLY SCALAWAG.
A wIEs BEATER's HgCroN FROM THE oRAsBy
HoUSA.

| On New Years Eve there was quite a com
motion at the Ormsby over the conduct OF I
boarder named Fred e. Sickes, who disturbed
the guests of the hotel by beating his wife
| About half-past 9 clock lady who roomed
directly under Sickles' apartment complained
| at the office of a serious disturbance going or
above her. The Sharp brothers went to room
10 and found Sckles assailing his wife with
the foulest language and beating her. His
epithsts were too filthy for print, and as Mr..
Charles Sharp entered the room he struck his
wife in the face and knocked her down. The
bully was promptly collared, dragged out OF
the room, kicked down stairs, and ordered
never to show his face in the house again.
EJEcTKp BY FRB BARKEEpsR.
About half an hour afterwards he again
came to the house and insisted On going up
stairs. Mr.. Clever, the night bsrkeeper,
told him that he must leave the place imrned
lately. Sickles made some insulting remark
in reply, and was therefrom Knocked down
and kicked out as before. He then blus
tered about the streets and vowed that he
would kill the bsrkeeper before morning by
shooting him. He also threatened to thrash
any body who gave an account of the affair to
the newspapers and "brsak up" any one who
made a report of it.
SOMETHING OF sICKLKe.
Sickles made his debut in this section at
Lake Bigler, where he fourishea for . season
as a Iaan who presumably had a large t, rtune
awaiting him. He claimed to come from a
highly aristocratic family and prided himself
upon the fact of being above work. 1t WAS
the general suppostion that he had money
enough to last life time Here no won the
affections of very sstimable young lady from
Virginia City and was married in oakland
during last April. His wife was dutiful,
faithful woman and highly respected by all
who knew her. A few months ago in Viz
sinia City he went to his wife room, where she
~ sick and gave her a brutal beating. He |
hen deserted her and went to Lake Biglsr |
where he obtained situation as a clerk at ono |
IF the hotels. HIS wife followed him to the |
AXE, where she was again beaten. After |
'lckles Infamous conduct he was disch .rgsd. |
For some time past he has lived at the
)rmsby Hon;;s supported by his wife. who
caches school and does writing and copying

STOCKS.

There was most encouraging advance all
along the line This was expected by the
careful observers who had noticed that all at
tempts to break the market on Friday were
fruitless. The excitement was mostly con-
fined to Gold Hill at the early Board. Bel
cher, which closed at 81 last night, opened
boldly at z, and under load of nearly 300
shares, only went back to 81 at the end of the
call, though it lost q fraction more after ad
tournament. Grown Point and Yellow Jacket
were quite strong. Between Boards there was
a slight recession, caused by realizing sales,
but at the regular session the boom began in
earnest, Mexican alone being kept down.
Belcher recovered some of it's lost ground
under the heaviest kind of fire. Over 900
shares of it changed hands The middle
stocks showed greatly increased strength.
Sierra Nevada went to ~, but closed at 2o4
an advance of 81 since last night. Union
reached 80 and closed at 49!, also a jump of
az since last night. In short, almost the
whole line advanced exeitedly and quickly.
The reasons assigned for the advance are that
there is really big development in Bsicher,
and that the north drift Of Sierra Nevada is
IN rich ore.
