SERIOUS MIsrAKE.-A young man from
Lewis river who has been living in this city
this winter, last week made an exhibition
Of his ignorance that came near sending him
70 the penitenti&y. He found horse on
the road belonging to Charlie Bird of 4th
Plain, and without permission rode it off to
Lewis river. Legal measures were taken to
recover the horse, but through the advice of
persons who pitied the young mans want Of
common sense, Mr.. Bird was persuaded not
70 prosecute him for theft, and no criminal
papers we're issued, the young man agreeing
70 pay the costs, some $50. 1t is still re-
msmbsred. however, that poor Joe Proulx
was forced into the penitentiary for less

of scarlet fever which appeared in Vancou-
yer has now about subsidized, the disease be-
ing in light form throughout its course

undoubtedly stamped out the contagion.

That GUN OF DALy's.-The third attempt
at trial of j. ii. Smith of Lewis river for
unlawfully appropriating Days shotgun
was made in this city on Monday, before
Justice Maxon, and had . result at last.
Some fifteen witnesses from Lewis river
were present. The case was prosecuted by
the District Attorney and defended by G.
II. Steward Smith clearly proved that one
Bryce had pawned the gun to him for Sll,
aud Smith was discharged, not guilty. The
costs in the case we're charged to the county.
Bryce is in England, and therefore cannot
be had. The total cost of this little business
to Clarke county now amounts to over 500.
and that sum does not represent any partic-
ular amount Of justice secured, but is the
payment for some ones laundering.
