The Fay Party.

The Eva Fay organization of jugglers,
the same party we had here few days
ago, has been "doing" the Nevada
City people. The Nevada Transcript
says the manifestations were very tame,
the tricks " stale, fiat and Improbable. ;"
The gas was turned down, no pianos
were flying around the room, no spec
trail hands were seen flying in the air,
in short, the performance was fraud.
Swindling the people who paid at the
door was bad enough, but to jump the
town without paying the printer, as
the Fay crowd did in Nevada City,
was an act over which Slim Jim, the
three-card monte man, would have
blushed beet-red. We order things
differently in Carson. Efforts to beat
tie press here are invariably followed
by lynching. This custom makes the
office of Coroner in Carson one of the
latest we have.

HELD FOR RANSOM.

A Sensational Story Concerning L. E
James.
highly sensational and seemingly
improbable story comes from Tombstone
Arizona, that Ike James, former Super
intendent of the Sierra Nevada, has
been captured by the cowboys and held
for ransom in the sum of $4,000. A
Mr.. Mcdonald, employed at the Union
Consolidated works, has received a letter
from friend in Tombstone of date of
the 18th instant, which gives the above
information with the following indefi-
nate particulars:
He states that two horses belonging
to Mr.. James had disappeared, and that
a negro in his (James') employ said if
he would go with him short distance,
they could find the horses, as he knew
where they were. James and his SER
want had proceeded but to the suburbs
of the town when the cowboys (of whom
the negro is alleged to have been an
ally) captured James and now holds him.
The letter further says that one of Mr..
James ears was cut off and sent in to
Wells, Fargo & Co. with note saying
that the ex-Superintendent would be
held for $4,000 ransom.

HIS MIND WANDERED.
Thinking Of q Pass.


We heard one the other day on Par
son Kelly, who used to officiate in the
pulpit, who ':ran our State, educational
ljigger," as he used to phrase it, and
who was droll fellow in many ways.
KeIly-we drop the clerical 0rreverend
prefix because he has done so-was
once performing the marriage ceremony
! for a well known stage man of Eastern
Nevada and handsome young lady (;
and connected with this particular cere-
mony is the joke. Kelly was looking
as dignified and sanctimonious as it
was possible for such joker to look,
and was impressively reading the mar
riage service, when his mind appeared
to wander and for some moments he
seemed to have lost himself in sort of
mental wilderness. But he finished
the job, greatly to his own relief and
that of the bride and groom. Congrat-
ulations over, the newly married man
dropped metallic offering in the
needy palm, and said: "Parson, you
didn't seem to be thoroughly at ease
this evening. l feared at one time you
were going to break down. Why, you
got stuck like an amateur who had
lost his lines on the stage-you see,
Parson, can not sink the shop-and in
one place you lost yourself completely"
"Your heads level as the road over
Bradley Flat" replied the knot tyer.
"This ponderous intellect" applying
the index finger of the right hand to
the forehead, 'shas been wandering.
Candor is my strong suit always
play fair. I was thinking during the
splicing how hard it was to be nearly a
hundred miles from home, with
nothing to jingle in my pocket but
small bunch of keys, and then thought
how handy it would be to have pass
over your line. Then"
" Excuse me Tor moment" Salu the
victim, who retired for few minutes,
and returning said, as he handed Kelly
an annual pass: "Modesty like yours is
a priceless jewel. Accept this and be
happy"
Kelly made a graceful bow and
took the pass.

fined to his room with severe attack
of malarial fever, should not be informed
of his fathers death until he was better.
The telling of the church bells and the
excitement aroused the suspicious OF
James and it was thought best by his
attending physician that he should be
informed of the truth. A burst of grief
followed, but he is now bearing the
trial bravely, though he is still in pre-
Curious condition. He will be removed
this afternoon to President Hopkins
house. The College went on as usual
this morning. Memorial services will
probably be held in day or two.
CLEVELAND, September 22.-The
orphaned sons at Mentor were not in
formed of their fathers death till after
breakfast this morning. For a time they
wept bitterly, but afterward grew quiet
and bore their affiictlon with almost
philosophical calmness. At Mentor are
also Joseph Rudolph, Mrs. Garfield's
brother, and her aged father. Both were
much affected, yet the result was not
by them.

Should this meet the eye of Luke
Kelley, or any one knowing his where
abouts, or any information regarding
him, they will confer a favor on his
brother Farrell by writing to the I'M

Truckee some seven or eight years ago,
and was reported to have been drowned

A Mysterious shipwreck.


 NEWPORT, May 1.-The owner of the schooner Fred Brown, of Providence, which was wrecked of Cape Cod few weeks ago, states that the wreck of the vessel had been discovered off Westfeld, and that divers were going to work on her next week to re- move her cargo. A search will also be made for the bodies of the mate, his wife and three children, who were h the cabin at the time of the collision This discovery only tends to make the loss of the schooner ). G. Huntington, and all on board, which oc. cured week later, a greater mystery than ever. Three days after the wreck of the last named vessel sunken wreck was dis covered by some fishermen off Nauset Beach with all sales set, indicating that the shiI had gone down with barely a moments no tice It was supposed that this was the Fred Brown, and that the Huntington struck hel and was sunk thereby but as that vessel has been found twenty miles or so to the nortl of Eauset Beach 1t is more than likely thai the Huntington collided with still another schooner and floated ashore, while the othel sunk instantly in deep water.
