SALT LAKE, April EARLY yesterday
morning the Waterman at the Tithing Of
flee discovered o man lying near the en-
trance of that place with a pistol wound in
the back of his head. He was still alive,
but unconscious, and died in a short time.
There were blood stains from the Eagle
Gate, in front Of Brigham Young's Beehive
House, and the supposition is that he was
shot at that place. He was seen early in
the evening with two tramps, who, doubt
less, murdered him for his money. From
papers on his person his name was ascer-
tanned to be Geo. Wilson Drake, of Beatty,
Marshal county, Kansas.
BoDIE, April lin an alteration at a
dance house last evening Saml. Black was
shot and dangerously wounded by Jesse
Pierce. The difficulty was caused by Pierce
assaulting a hurdy named Kittie Wells,
who was defended by Black. The former
is a gambler, and the latter was lately A
deputy constable.
Another rich strike is unoficially report
ed in the Bodie mine, in the middle winze.
From the 433 level the ledge had been lost
for over 100 feet, but has been again en-
countered over 200 feet below the level
mentioned. The report, although from
unofficial sources, is generally believed here.

THE homestead law recently passed in
the United States Senate is Of import
ance to many persons in this State. 1t
provides that the land shall be given to
the first settler whether he claims as a
pre-emptor or a homesteader. It also
makes provisions that the first settler on
an abandoned homestead entry shall have
the first right to acquire title to it after
the original entry is cancelled.

less than 5000 acres Of land each, and
that their aggregate ownership was 49,.

Great Britain and Ireland is put at H..

BLACK HILLS EDITOR ON THE
WARPATII.

The Black Hills Pioneer is at wal with
Judge Moody of the Territorial Bench.
The Pioneer accused Judge Moody Of ac-
cepting s.straw bail" in a certain case.
The Judge retorted from the bench that
the Pioneer "lied, wilfully and malic-
iously." He also ordered the offending
editor to be brought before him on a
charge of contempt. The editor didn't
go. On the contrary, the editor, Mr.. R.
0. Adams, published a card in his paper
in which occurs the following explana-
tion of his refusal to dance attendance to
His Honor:
When his message calling ON me to come
over to his court with the writer Of the ar
ticle complained of, reached me yesterday,
I requested General Hall, the polite and
gentlemanly bailiff of the court, to pre-
sent my compliments to Judge Moody and
tell him to go to HI" If he has had any
injustice done him by the Pioneer, he can
call at this Office, like any other citizen,
and get a correction made.
