Death af M. M. Egan.

The Austin Reveille Of the 9th says:
The reaper Death has again made it nec-
essary to chronicle the demise of a most
estimable man and honored citizen, which
occurred about - o'clock on Friday night
last, after a brief illness. His death
causes a gloom and regret among all our
people, and especially pioneers, being
among the first settlers in 1853, and q on
slant member Of the Society of Reese
River Pioneers, Of which society he has
been Treasurer for a number Of years last
past. Deceased has been in active bust
ness during his residence in this city, and
consequently had occasion to come in con-
tact with many in a business way during
the time stated. He was generous, kind
hearted and honorable in all his deal
ings with his fellow men. He leaves a
widow and three children to mourn his
loss, to whom he was greatly attached n
devoted, giving two sons, who nave at
tanned the years of maturity, a thorough
classical education. He was a man pos
sessed of many good qualities and his loss
will be felt by all. We trust that u loss
may be his gain, and knowing that death
will sooner or later overtake us all, let us
cheerfully submit to the will of Him who
rules and governs all things. Deceased
was 81 years of age at the time of his
death and a native of Ireland. The funeral
took place from the Catholic Church at
2 o'clock this afternoon under the auspices
Of the Society of Reese River Pioneers,
and was followed to the cemetery by his
bereaved family and a very large number
of ~sorrowing friends. May he rest in
peace.

A Rich New Mexican Mine.

A Santa Fe correspondent of the Ell
Dorado County Republican, of Placerville,
Cal, has the following interesting story in
connection with the discovery of a rich
mining district in that vicinity Perhaps
the richest section lately discovered is the
now famous White Oaks District, and
already it numbers among its possessions
the richest gold mine in the world. The
story of the discovery of this mine reads
so much like a romance that / must relate
it.
On the prairies of Kansas lived a sturdy
yeman by the name of Dolan. Bong
an energetic man he left his wife to run
the farm aud he put out for New Mexico,
where he had heard such fabulous
stories of wealth and prosperity. For
weeks his wife did no hear from him, and
last August we found our hero and his
pard almost dead broke, and their enthusi-
asm rapidly waning. He thought of his
wife and little children, and dreaded to
write to them that he had had no luck.
About this time they met a Mexican who
claimed to have found a large nugget Of
gold in Lincoln county, in the neighbor-
hood of the present White Oaks; and they
YEARLY turned their attention that way
and commenced work on a placer. About
this time another strapped" miner, named
Wilson, came along, and put in his little
with Dolan and his pard, and, taking some
grub, started out prospecting, and while
eating his dinner amused himself by chip
ping off the edges Of a rock upon which
he was resting, and great was his surprise
to find " color" His first conclusion was
that there must be outcroppit gs near, and
about twenty yards from there be found
the enchanted spot and located the now
famous mine. He at once returned to
camp and. reporting his find, offered it for
sale. All that Dolan and his pard had
were three silver dollars and a few dollars
In dust. Wilson refused this, but Dolan
finally offered to throw In his pistol, and
the trade was made.
The purchasers commenced work with a
vim, and when they had put down the hole
eight feet, five assays were made, giving
the astonishing average Of $40. 600 per ton.

Red Mike Loses an Arm.

Under date of Tombstone. Arizona, De-
oember 29d, William Kinsmah writes as
follows Red Mike, the notorious fighter
who killed Leonard in Virginia City about
a year and half ago, was shot by a black
smith named Ike Saunders last night.
Mike and Saunders had a quarrel in Cogh-
Ian & Sisson's saloon on the night OF the
18th. Mike drew his pistol, but the by
flanders prevented his using it. On the
DIST they met again in the Golden Eagle
saloon, and both drew their pistols.
Saunders got his out first and shot Mike
twioe-once in the arm aud once in the
shoulder, SCATTERING it badly. Saunders
was taken to jail, but was released without
bail fifteen minutes later. On the 22d
Red Mike had his arm amputated at the
ahoulder.

Unlimited ush.

The Carson Daily Times of a recent date
has the following "The recent Hesketh-
Sharon wedding AT Belmont was, no doubt,
n brilliant affair, and worthy Of special
mention by the press of San Francisco,
vet scarcely deserved the unlimited gush
which certain newspapers displayed in their
glowing accounts of the ceremonies. From
the very wordy and glowing description in
the Post and Examiner, the uniformed
reader might imagine that Milton had re-
turned to earth and was essaying a deserip-
ton Of Paradise in true Jenkins style.
The complimentary notices OF the bride
and groom place them on the superiative
biobt Of more than mortal beauty, grace,
strength, culture, etc., and altogether there
il a free flow OF unadulterated fattery
which is nauseating to commonplace peo-
nile of every day life"

DISCHARGED.


Tombstone Livening Up Little
Pistols Brought Into Use.
Parties not unknown to Nevadans are to
be heard from occasionally as far south as
Tombstone, Arizona. Here is an account
of a fight which occurred in thar enter
prising burg lately and what came of IT.;
The examination Of Isaac Saunders,
charged with assault to kill William Lang
don, alias Red Mike took place before JUS
tice Felter, yesterday, Webster Street ap-
pearing for the defense. The evidence
went to show that the origin of the diff
Guilty was a row at the Virginia saloon
last Saturday night between one Burke and
another individual, Saunders interfering
to separate them. Red Mike, taking
Burke's part, jumped on Saunders back,
but was thrown off by him. Mike and
Burke Their went away and came back
with pistols, when an officer disarmed
them. Red Mike threatened Saunders and
attempted to shoot him that night. The
defendant avoided Red Mike the first time
they met at the Eagle Brewery on Wednes-
day night. He was standing with Tribolet
at the stove, Red Mike being seated at the
lunch counter. The latter turned around
and looking at Saunders steadily, at the
same time striking his fist heavily on the
counter, said: "There is q - - here
who wants a shooting match with me, and
can get all he wants Of it," He then at
tempted familiarities with him, but saun-
ders told him to go away, as he did not
want to have anything to do with him.
Mike then went to the door and looked up
and down the street, and turning sudden
ly displayed a pistol. As quick as thought
Saunders drew his gun and fired, both
weapons going off almost simultaneously,
Saunders being a little the handiest and
winging his bird. Six shots were fred in
all, Mike being responsible for two and
Saunders for four. Witnesses testified as to
the good character Of Saunders, and he
was discharged.

Governor of Montana,

We note with pleasure a project on foo
to have Judge G.. G.. Goodwin, late editor
Of the Enterprise, but now of the Salt
Lake Tribune, appointed Governor Of
Montana by the new President. Charley
Goodwin is a pioneer Of the pioneers. He
has seen the ups and downs incident to
Western life-at one time he has had to
spar the clearinghouse boss for a square
meal, and soon after sell his "diggins''
and be q small bonanza king. He has
been on the dizzy hight of an editorship,
and descended to be a District Judge, and
now they talk of him for Governor Of a
great, growing Territory. We know of
but one other person in all this broad land
we would prefer to have appointed Gov
ernor Of Montana, and We modestly with
draw that name in favor Of the big-hearted,
talented Charley Goodwin. President
Garfield would suit this Coast exactly by
placing him in that responsible position,
and at the same time secure the services of
an excellent officer. "His Excellency, the
Hon. g. G. Goodwin, Governor Of Mon
tana," would look well in print.-[Carson
Tribune.
Yes; and his name would sound we'll as
the Governor of Montana. We cordially
second his appointment.
