AdOsphe Harve Acquitted.

The trial of Adolphe Harve for the
killing of Max Treitschel, which was
begun in the District Court yesterday
morning at 10 o'clo'k, says the L>aler,
| occupied the attention of the Court
until nearly | 1 O'clock list n,ght, up to
which time eight witnesses were ex
amined for the prosecution. The court
room was crowded with auditors last
evening and considerable interest was
manifested i'm the progress of the case.
The trial was resumed this morning
ut 10 o'clock, and all dty there has been
Il urge attendance at the courtroom.
The testimony was all in by IL O'Clock
to-day, and the greater PORTION Of the
afternoon has been taken up in arguing
the case. The District Attorney open, ID
the argument O the side of the prose
cution, presenting his case in Il clear
ard able manner to the jury. He waS
followed by Counselor Beatty and
Bishop, who, though occupying but
little time in the delivery Of their argu
men s, m lde their defense as clear and
direct as possible. The argument Was
closed at 4:3O by District Attorney
Davenport and the case WAS submitted
to the jury at O'Clock, after receiving
lengthy and carefully drawn instruc
tons from His Honor, Judge Riv es,
bearing upon all the points of the case.
The jury could not have been out
more than five minutes at the outside,
when they returned with a verdict of
not guilty, and Hirve is a free man.

CONTEMPTIBLE SUSINEss.
The Half Breeds Spying Over Platt's
TrAns0m.

The latest from Albany is that a
number of spies who have been fol
some time on the track of Plat have
finally succeeded in discovering him in
a room with woman of the town. The
Albany dispatch to the Chicago Times
says:
About half-past IL o'clock Platt was
observed to 60 into room No. 1l3. A
number of Half-breeds then went to
the Office and hired Nos. 100 and lO7,
opposite No. ll3, and so located that
any one coming out of No. 1l3 must
necessarily pass by the door of either
No. LOG or No. 1O7. Both these rooms
were kept in darkness, and in each
islature. Others who had been informed
were also on the lookout. One of the
servants was sent down stairs to bring
Il stepadder. The one brought was too
short and he was sent after longer one.
When this came Lenator Woodin and
ASsemblymen Hustled, Steele and Skin
ner, with ex-Sheriff Daggett of Brooklyn
and Police Inspector Desbecker, re-
moved their boots and one by one as
cended the ladderand looked into room
No. LA through the tranSom; the win
dow of which being closed. They saw
Platt lying on the bed, and the woman
undressing for bed. After waiting con-
time a note was slipped under
the door reading thus:
Hon. L. Z. PLATr: We will give
YOU ten minutes to get out Of that room.
Yours respect. uily,
The HALF-BREED5.
After Plat left the room it was
closely watched and woman who left
it heavily yelled ..and took a carriage
was followed by the Half-breeds until
he trail was lost. it is believed that by
tomorrow some clew can be obtained |

The Chinese Contributors.

Officers Cowan and Duncan found no
trouble in collecting from the Chinese,
and all paid the cash down. All seemed
quite pleased with the idea that Carson
had been selected as the spot where the
big celebration would be, but before
giving they were anxious to learn all
about the programme.
"What you have this year,"
"Big procession, Car of State, GODDESS
of Liberty, heap soldiers, speech,
poem-'
awe likee soldiers. spleech, ploem no
good We iikee fire clackers, heap gun
powder, fire works belly fine"
On being assured that the attractions
would consist of gun powder and mill
tary, they expressed themselves pleased
and PUNCHED up readily and announced
that they would all take in the horse
race. Yesterday they sent word to the
committee that if their band would be
of any use they would give it free of
charge. Such a positive display of
patriotism made profound impression
on the committee, but as Rippingham's
band, engaged at Virginia City, have
their instruments tuned in different
key, it was determined not to accept
the last offer.

Found Dead.

On Monday last the body Of a man
was found in the shallow water near
Captain Prays mill at the lake. The
deceased was a Canadian Frenchman
about 40 years of age and from papers
found in his possession his name was
ascertained to be Felix Rainville. The
body was badly decomposed and the
Coroners jury were unable to dtterm-
inc whether it WAS a case of suicide or
accidental drowning. The verdict al
luded to "humane body" found i'm
the water and attributed the death to
unknown causes.

THE DAY W. CELEBRATE.
Remarks Upon the Subject by the Gold
Hill News

The Gold Hill Meas has the following
on the celebration: The Carson people
have extended every reasonable cOur-
tesy toward the obdurate citizens of
Virginia to induce them to go down
there and join with them in the cele-
brati"n of the coming Fourth of July.
They have not exactly got down on
their knees and begged, but have near
ly done SO. They have sent commit
tee after committee of solicitation and
hopeful suggestion, and even adver-
tised their programme in all the Vir-
ginia newspapers, but all to no pur-
pose. They could not afford to bank
rupt themselves by paying the railroa
fare of their Virginia visitors down ana
back, feed them on quail and give them
five dollars apiece, SO the whole Racket
is squelched, so to speak. Virginia has
concluded to celebrate at home, sooner
than pay dollar to help Carson, and
will spend more money in doing it
than if they had gone to Carson.
The Carson people have "een foolish
ly economical in this matter. They
should have got up barbecue of fat
cattle and hogs, furnished free trans
portation and free whisky. But they
didn't do it--and, contidentially speak
ing, they don't appreciate in the least
the calamity they have avoided. Gold
Hill could depopulate Virginia entirely
on the Fourth if she chose to do so. |
But she won't.

The State officials are deter mined to
stop boys from killing birds in the
capitol square. Yesterday the Cover
nor found Il youngster about nine years
old with shotgun hunting robbins
right under the shadow of the dome.
Grabbing the boy by the scurf of the
neck, he exclaimed:
81 want your NAME"
The boy was so frightened that he
dropped his gun and his knees shook
with terror.
"What's the matter?" he finally
asked. "Can't a Teller take a gun to
git it fixed"
"Thought you were going to kill
some robins" said the Governor, re-
Iaxing his hold. "Do you want to go
t. the panitentiary for fife Ell ytars?"
