Assault and Battery.

Frank Connors yesterday afternoon
swore out a complaint in Justice Harmon's
Court of assault and battery against Jane
Robb, a colored woman. Frank, who is
a young man Of leisure about town, AYERS
that Jane, who is a female Of giant-like
stature and strength, struck him with a
champagne bottle in the small of his back,
and left a lruise which warrants q charge
Of assault and battery. Jane, ON the other
hand, alleges in justification Of her bellig-
emit conduct, that the young man used
some bad language in front of her domicile,
and refusing to move on when requested to
do so, she, not being accustomed to the
Duggan method of enforcing a command,
picked up a champagne bottle and famed
the Young mans back with it. The case
will form an interesting feature in our local
history, and will be tried before His Honor
at IL O'Clock to-day.

Mrs. RoMers. Predictions.

Several Of the tragedies predicted by
Mrs. Bowers, the Washoe Seeress. says the
Bodie Free Press, have already taken
place, and two others are impending. She
told John Meyers that he would not get
TO Gold Mountain. and he WAS killed two
days afterward. just prior to that time,
however. she told a civil officer that no less
,han three homicides would take place in
Bodie within . short time. Meyers and
ni'chell have since been killed, and Mrs.
bowers now says that she would advise all
VINO have been in the habit OF visiting
places where roughs congregate to keep
away Tor a season, as another tragedy will
sake place in a short time. Norman Nc
swain, who was killed by giant powder in
,as Bechtel Mine last Thursday. consulted
ars; Bowers four or five days prior to his
death, and after looking c~lairvoyantly
INTO his future, the Seeress warned him OF
sae danger he was in and begged Of him to
give up his job and go prospecting. She
predicts another fatal accident on the hill
~ .ne near future, and says that when ii
occurs several lives will be lost, and that
me can see crowds Of people running up
Tue NIL by the Standard Mill.

Annexation of Territory.

The County Commissioners will meet
to-day for the purpose Of determining the
value Of that portion of White Pine
County which is to be ceded to Eureka
County in accordance with the Act Of the
last Legislature. The new line of division
as established by the bill makes the sum-
nit Of the Diamond range OF mountains
as the dividing line between the two
counties, and the annexed portion com
prises a triangular strip Of country with
its base beginning at the Elko County
line some 40 miles north OF Eureka, in the
neighborhood Of Diamond Springs. The
strip includes Diamond Springs, Diamond
City and its mines, the Italian and other
ranches east OF Eureka. According to the
Act the County Of Eureka shall assume a
pro rata OF the present Indebtedness of
White Pine County in proportion to the
taxable property acquired by virtue of the
Act. and shall pay to the County Treasurer
Of White Pine county the snrn Of $500 for
the territory thus acquired. The County
Commissioner Of the respective counties
shall Jointly determine the proportion Of
debts and liabilities Eureka county shall
assume, and the assessment roll of White
Pine county for the fiscal year 1880 shall
be the basis OF determining such liability,
and 1t is for this purpose that the Commits
sioners OF the two counties meet jointly to-
day. The assessment roll Of White Pine
county for 1880 amounted TO S963, 541. 1t
is probable that placing the amount at an
extreme figure, the assessable property in
the acquired strip will not exceed $40, 900.
On this basis the proportion of Eureka
county would be i-48 Of the debt OF White
Pine, which is, approximately, $4,000
with the purchase money, $500,
would make the cost OF this strip of coun-
try in the neighborhood Of So, 500.

From the BELLEVUE News


Al. feathers and Charley Prior are in
the Smokes prospecting.
Frank Cleveland's sprained ankle has
untitled him for active service for a time.
As a consequence he is on the day shift at
Byrd & Maskelyne's for a while.
Peter (Anderson) the Great and RUB
Eggleston are not here for their health.
They came up to look over the promised
land, and, the Lord willin', they may To-
cate permanently with u.s.. At present
they are perfecting some titles to property
in the vicinity of Galena. RUDE and Pete
are of the good, old stock, and we hope
fortune may smile on their efforts to &C.
cumulate riches in this country.
Jack Qualtrough, who was 80 badly shot
through the arm, hand and ear by the ac-
cidental discharge Of his Winchester rife
in Greenhorn Gulch a few weeks ago, has
so far recovered under the treatment of
DR.. Bishop as to admit of his travelling.
He departed by stage Monday morning for
Kelton, and from there will go to Eureka,
Nevada. Jack is a ~rustler, never says die,
and will soon be running a gang of men
ON old Prospect. If Jacks wounds are all
right in the Spring he will be with us
again. He is more or less interested in
some prospects in this country already.

A Lively LOCKER.

Wood River News: Well guarantee the
assertion that DR.. A. G. Bishop of Eureka,
New, who has been in Wood River just
four weeks, has seen more Of the country,
the towns and the mines than any other
man in the same length of time, or even
more than nine-tenths of the people who
have ever been here. From mountain to
mountain, from valley to valley, from the
serrated range of the Salmon and Wood
River divide to the plains Of Camas Prai-
rie, the doctor has travelled, horseback, on
foot, or in his ambulance-it made no diff
ference, go he would, and go he did, night
and day. He returned a few days ago
from the new find of Jesse Elliott's, on the
head OF Little Wood River. He says that
not a word of exaggeration has ever been
said, in papers, or by word of mouth,
about it. 1t is all there, and more, too.
As good mines as there are on Wood River
are to be uncovered at the head Of Little
Wood River, and the old trail route from
Bellevue up Seamond's Greek is the way to
get in and out of that section. The doc
tor has been looking at some prospects up
the river.

THE ALBIONS IN AUSTIN.
A Cordial Receptisn-ROx. Follows
by Kail-Betting, Etc.


The Albions arrived in Austin at 8
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and were cor
daily received by the all-tossing frater-
nifty and the people Of the town. The ar
rival Of the Club created quite a stir, and
hundreds foeked to the teams to get a
glimpse of the would-be champions Of the
Silver State. 1t will serve as a splendid
advertisement for the picnic to-day. JAS.
Roxburgh, the catcher of the Albions, who
a sick brother, was finally prevailed upon
to follow in the wake of the Club, and left
by train yesterday morning. He should
have reached Austin last night. No doubt
his arrival will create both surprise and
CONSERVATION, pleasurable surprise among
his nine, and surprise and CONSERVATION in
the ranks of the Austinites, who had al
ready begun to throw their twenties about
on a sure thing. Rox. will give Crawford
an opportunity to pitch part of the game
at least, and when his "game" arm gives
out 1.-THE solid man" can come in with his
left-handed delivery. If this don't break
a AfENoC an W GiCNtS II iiahC
them 90 home with a better idea of the
Base Rangers than they have entertained
all along, then they will be entitled to
wear the belts, that's all. The arrival Of
Rox. will throw either Reilly or Hall out,
probably the latter, as he is not in a condi-
ton to run, having sprained a tendon in
the left thigh several weeks since. He will
do, however, as a ''sub," in case one of the
gets injured, and is always a sure
and pretty good batter. Some bet
ting has been done on the result OF the
game here. Yesterday afternoon a sleeper
was picked up who offered to go twenty on
the Austins. A b~ystander, who knew Of
departure, jumped to his collar in a
moment, and cornered the double eagle,
only too anxious to repeat the dose. The
result OF the game may be known this
evening, and will no doubt be ~anxiously
awaited.

An Oaicer for Ruby Hill.

Sheriff Kyle yesterday appointed George
A. Day as one Of his Deputies and Fire
Warden Of Ruby Hill. The new officer is
an old-timer on the Hill, and the present
CAPTAIN of the Centennial Guard, and the
appointment cannot fail to give general
satisfaction. He enters upon his duties
this morning, and will be paid by the
county. The action Of appointing an
officer on Ruby Hill will commend itself
as having been one of absolute necessity.
The population of the Hill is about 2,ooo,
and it is surprising that this number OF
people nave governed themselves SO be.
comingly that they have not felt the want
OF an officer until within a week or SO. we
hope Mr.. Day will have a slnecure In MS
new line of business.

A PLUCKY
mrs. HinckIey of Eureka shoots "a
Daring Road Agent In Mexico.

The many friends Of Mr.. and Mrs. J.. It.
Hlnckley in Eureka will be glad to learn
That they nave arrived safely in the City of
Mexico, not, however, without having ex-
perienced the dangers and adventures
which are only too common in the historic
land Of the Montezumss. The treachery
and thieving propensities of the Mexicans
is well known, and our fellow towns-people
nave had it illustrated to their hearts con-
tent. But the greasers have learned that
II Is not always safe to stop and rob Amer
lean travellers, especially when they are ac-
companled by brave Yankee wives, for they
become heroines on the instant in the face
OF danger. Such was the case with Mrs.
hinckley, who, instead Of fainting,
shatched her husbands revolver, and shot
down the Mexican who intended to rob
them on the highway near the City of
mexico. A letter from Mr.. Hinckley to
Joseph Reynolds of Eureka gives the fol-
lowing particulars of the brave deed:
CITY OF MEXICO, June 1, 1881.-Well,
friend Reynolds, we are now in the City of
old Mexico, after a tiresome and danger
GUS journey. In staging through to this
place we were stopped twice by road agents;
once by Mexicans and once by Apaches,
though am happy to say we lost but $50
by both parties, as my wife carried the
purse and was not disturbed. | must say
she has grit. The last time we we're stopped
1t was by Mexicans; one stood in front of
the team, and the other came to demand
the coin. l had a revolver under the
cushion, but before | had time to think of
it, my wife drew it and shot the fellow who
wanted the money. The report of the pis-
tl frightened the team and it broke away
and dashed over the Mexican holding it.
The horses, however, were shortly drawn
up and the road agent captured before he
had a chance to recover. We dashed him
up and took him with us to Old Mexico.
The letter does not state whether the
Mexican Mrs. Hinckley shot was killed or
not, but from the fact that no further
mention is made of him, we presume he
was killed.-ED. Mr.. Hinckley contin-
ues: "H ever l get where the American
flag waves again, I'll tell you all about our
trip, for | must close now for want Of time
and rest" J. i. HISoKLEY.

SO many complaints have been made to
the Commissioners about the ball playing
in the public streets that they have come
to the conclusion TO have the ordinance
against it enforced, and give notice in an
other column to that effect. The practice
of throwing and catching the ball on Main
street has been much abused, and opposi-
ton to it is very general among business
men and those who are in the habit OF
riding out during the early evening. The
ordinance is not only against playing ball
on Main street, but all other thorough
fares within the city.
