AN OLD GERMAN AT PONY STATION FOUND
WITH BALL THROUGH HIS HEART.

Yesterday morning the driver of the Genoa
stage pulled up at the Old Pony station in
Jacks Valley. and seeing no one about called
for Jack Hans. an old German who has kept
the place for several years. Receiving no re-
Spouse he got out and pushed open the door
of the house. Here he found Hans lying
face downward on the floor. The driver
turned over the body which was quite cold,
and on making further Investigation
found bullet through his heart. He
had tho appearance Of having been dead
at least 48 hours. The body was taken to
Genoa for burial and a coroners jury found
that he came to his death from a gun shot
wound frem unknown hands. He generally
went by the name "Old Hans" but his real
name was Christopher Hill He had about
500 about him few days ago and this has
disappeared. There is no cine whatever to
the psrpetratsr Of the cold blooded murder.

SHARoNs SHADOW When Mr.. Sharon
stepped aboard the train on Sunday evening
he was closely followed by Mr.. E. J. Parkin-
son, of the Tribune, having small grip sack
in his hand. This gave rise to the rumor that
Mr. Parkinson had been chosen as the man.
ager of the Sharon Campaign and sack bearer
to His Highness. If such is the case Sharon
chances have increased during the past week.
Mr.. Parkinson is fast acquiring reputation
for political shrewdness which bids fair to
place him at the top Of the list of Senatorial
manipulators. The Tribune can make and
unmake Senators, and break them too if the
opportunity is offered. The services rendered
Senator Jones in his campaign by the Tribune
are still fresh in the minds of the people.
Parkinson Senior claims to be the ladder on
which Sharon climbed the wall of political
preferment. Did he kick the ladder from
under himl Mo- He simply pulled its nose.
In the present campaign the Tribune will
support Sharon if he puts up in ad
vance, The grip-sack which Mr.. Parkinson
took with him as he followed Sharon to Reno
did not contain Sharon's money, however, but
was probably the convenient receptacle of a
cold lunch and fresh relay Of socks. Dur
ing Mr.. Sharon's shert stay here he was
Swallowed by Mr. Parkinson, who
doubtless remained close at hand to protect
him from bad company.

IMPURE BREATH.

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay of the teeth, an i'm
pure breath must be the most notifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is
the mostinexcusiblea and offensive in societ;
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. 1t purifes and sweetens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SOZODONT, as
it removes all unpleasant oders of the weed.
Ask your druggist for it.

f.. The enterprising James Kirkland,
whose handsome store is under the
Peabody hotel, is out with a new card.
He has a golden horseshoe for his sign
and trade mark, the weight of which
is to be guessed at, the closest guesser
to get a hundred dollars in gold; the
second closest fifty dollars; the third
twenty-five dollars, and the rest con
ISOLATION. The guessing closes on the
4th Of July next, when the successful
trio will get the cash. This feature of
advertising his business is a new n
and original in these parts with Mr..
Kirkland. So far it has been asucoess
to himself and customers. Mr.. Kirk
land announces a lot of f~rst-class
shirts and other apparel at low prices,
which will be explained in his card in
another column.

Police Court.

This morning before daylight, while
several prisoners were engaged in
cleaning up the station house, a negro
named Henry Bell, who was working
out a fifty dollar fine, made his
escape by jumping from the court
room window. He was seen by the
turnkey while in the act Of escaping
but too late to effect a recapture.
Only two dodgers at the police hotel
last night. The weather is so lovely
that many prefer to hide themselves
away, like Diogenes, in an old, empty
barrel.
The black CELL at the city jail has
its terrors for the unwary. About two
bushels of infamy, clothed in a lovely
female form, and draped in the height
Of fashion, was deposited there for
about two hours last Saturday, and on
coming out declared that "Oh the
mice we're as big as rats" gathering
up her skirts and looking about her in
terror at the bare recollection.
In Squire Quigley'S court this
morning Matte Jones, colored, was
bound over to the criminal court in
the sum of $4,000, for stealing a dress,
breastpin and other articles from Dan
