Dutch Fred.

This morning early, says the Reno
Gazette, the business men on Virginia
street we're called to their doors by loud
talking. An eyewitness says he stepped
to the sidewalk, and saw Dutch Fred, q
shoemaker near Quinn's store, shoot at
Pat Tighe. who was running across the
street. Fred tried to shoot again, but the
pistol would not go. He then pursued
Tighe, and they clinched, Fred on top.
He was proceeding to castigate Tighe.
when l.. J. Flint interfered. and stopped
the fight. Flint tool away the pistol, and
the disarmed man went home. 1t seems,
from what little can be learned, hat Fred
had a difficulty with one Brannan about a
bill. Fred claims that Tighe interfered, and
they clinched. The shoemaker drew his
pistol and struck Tishe, and, as Fred
claims, the gun went off accidentally. This
forenoon Tighe swore out a warrant charg-
ing Fred with assault with intent to kill,
and the accused was jailed in default Of
bonds. He gave his name as H. P. Pavo-
Ia. This afternoon at one O'Clock he was
examined.
The pistol is becoming entirely too nu-
merous in this community, and is neither
useful nor ornamental.

The excitement about the Cottonwood
Park mines continues. A party Of gentle
men from Eureka offered Messrs. Coleman

their prospect on the Coleman lode, but
they refused and fixed the price at s1O,0 600.

Newark Valley, some miles beyond, took q
look at the property during the past week,
and after examining the lode broke off a
piece of quartz from the groupings. This
was pounded up and washed out in a rude
way, and yielded a number Of pieces of
gold as large rs ~pin-heads. Locations have
been made in every direction, and the en-
tire country has been staked of. Just over
the divide, to the north Of Cottonwood
Park, Messrs. Trainor and Broy have To-
Gated another beautiful ranch that has a
nice stream of water and some very hand
some groves Of willows and cottonwoods.
Prospecting parties are preparing for an
extensive exploration OF the entire Range
within the present month. The assayers
nave now in hand rock from ~various loca-
tions, all Of which looks very promising.

A Drop Of Cratur.',

s. F. Examiner /: Two evening contem-
poraries a few nights since published a
sensational telegram stating that Mount
Tamalpias was in the throes of a volcanic
eruption. This. coupled with the fact that
our planetary system has recently been de-
moralized by the appearance of an astro-
nomical phenomena in the shape of a dual
comet, prompted the wiseacres who only
emerge from the prophetic shells on such
occasions-to predict that the world was
on the ragged edge Of a planetary perihe-
lion, which would eventually result in its
entire destruction. Not seeing any illu-
mination at the summit OF the mountain,
the Examiner telegrapl.ed to San Rafael in
relation to the rumor, and received the
following reply:
The excitement was caused by two gen.
tlemen going on the mountain and tele-
graphing to their friends at San Rafael by
aid Of mirrors. and the flashes were the
reflection Of the sun in the mirrors. The
story is supposed to have emanated from
ga drop OF the cratur."
