An Exciting Runaway.

An unhitched horse attached to q buggy,
said to belong to a gentleman on Ruby
Hill, created quite a sensation on Main
street last evening just before dark. The
horse at first evidently had no intention Of
running away. but as he was moving up
the street in front Of the Parker House
without a driver, the crowds on the side
walks rushed forward with the purpose
Of stopping him. The unusual commo-
ton and yelling frightend the animal, and
he dashed forward at a frightful speed,
turning down Bateman and up Buel street.
Opposite Mr.. Plater's residence he turned
to the left, and made his way over a foot
bridge, the buggy scarcely touching the
planks. He passed through q narrow space
between two houses, and turned into
Spring street, where he collided with Mrs.
Judge Rives' buggy, occupied by Billy
Mcintyre, shaking the young gentleman
up in a lively manner, but only breaking
the shaft Of the vehicle. Mrs. and Grace
Pardy, warned OF the runaway, had just
alighted from the buggy when the crash
came. They had scarcely time to move
away, and were very much frightened.
Their excitement was intensified by a re-
port that Mr.. Pardy had been thrown from
the runaway buggy. But this statement
was unfounded, and the fears OF the ladies
we're soon dissipated by the appearance OF
Mr.. Pardy.

A Dangcrous woman.

A Spanish woman known as Mariquita
last night cut another woman styled Irish
Nell in front Of a saloon on lower Main
street. 1t appears that the dark-eyed SEN
orita is a very jealous female, and has for a
lover a tickle cousin jack" who not in
frequently divides his amours. Mariquita
suspected Nelly of casting shy chances at
g her fellow" and as the latter came out OF
the saloon last evening the Spanish woman
grabbed her by her bangs, and proceeded to
euff and scratch her like an enraged IT,
gress. Nelly, however, was not idle, but
caught her opponents raven tresses and
nearly scalped her. Mariquita then pulled
ont A knife, and drew it down Neliy's left
side. lust below the shoulder, cutting q
cash about five inches in length, but not
deem enough to be serious. Mariqulta
then rushed into her house, which was
near by. where the Sheriff shortly after
ward found her, and took her to jail.
Nelly was taken to a lodging-house on
Bnei street, and a doctor summoned, VINO
sewed mn the wound. Mariquita has been
quite a terror for some time, especially to
he waiter girls, and recently. intended to
plunge a s~tilletto into one OF the bellies OF
that profession for allowing her fellow :
20 talk TO her. The " girls feared ner
every movement. and no doubt breathe
easier while she is behind the pars.

An Ola Timer Dead.

Word reached Bodie yesterday, says the
Free Press Of the 10th, that Pat Holland,
one of the best known men on the coast,
had been killed near Tombstone by being
thrown from a buggy. The accident oc-
cured on the 9Th of June. Mr.. Holland
and saloon-keeper were out riding, when
the horses took fright and ran off the
grade. Both men were thrown out, but
Holland struck against a rock, and was so
severely injured that he expired soon after
being taken to town. The deceased was an
old timer on the coast, and had been in
every mining camp discovered. He was
a pressman by profession, and had been a
newspaper man for many years. While in
Bodie he conducted the Union, an adver-
Using sheet. He owned the first news
paper in Phoebe, and also ran q paper in
Virginia City. As a joker, Pat had no
equal. Many friends in California and
Nevada will regret to learn Of his violent
death

MOB LAW AT LEWIS.
Outrages by n Gang of
hired Ruffians, Led by n SUPER
fntendent.

LEWIS, New, June IA, 1881.
EDITOR SENTINEL: A crime was perpe-
trated here on Saturday, June IL, which 1
wish 10 give an account Of through the
columns Of your paper. Between the
hours OF IL and IL o'clock a mob came
into town from the Star & Grove mine,
which is about two and o half miles dis
tant from Lewis, or Lower Town, as it is
sometimes called. The mob was headed
by George W. Boutwell,, Superintendent Of
the Star q Grove mine, and his foreman,
Thomas g.. Morgan, and shift bosses
richard Scuba, Thomas Simons and Harry
towards, the balance Of the mob consist
ing OF about 40 men, the most Of whom
were miners. They marched through
town to the company's Office, where they
were armed with self-cocking pistols, and
oy order OF the leaders proceeded to the
corner Of Main and South streets, where
Mr.. Langdon was building a house, which
Boutwell, claimed to be on the company's
ground. The mob overpowered the Off
GERS, tore down the building, and threw
the lumber down an embankment and
across the railroad track. They then
formed in line and marched to a house in
the rear of Marshall's Hotel, which is the
property of George Lincoln and Matt.
Connors. They began tearing this house
down over the owners heads. Mr.. Con-
nors, who is an invalid, begged for time
10 get out of the house, which was re-
luctantly granted. After the men got out
OF the house it was completely torn down
and thrown in every direction, they being
80 eager to do their work that they even
the chips and small pieces OF
plank, after which they retired TO the
mines, or Upper.Town. Mr.. Connors is an
old citizen Of Eureka, and is a quiet, inof-
gentleman. He has had two strokes
OF paralysis, and can hardly walk. The
cause for tearing down the house, as
claimed by the leaders, was because it
stood on the mill site, but the owners
claim that they got permission to build
there, and have enjoyed peaceable posses
sion for two months, without ever being
to move off the ground. Though
most OF the mob were Miners Union men,
it was not done by order Of the Union,
nor did any OF the original old nineteen
members. who stood out SO nobly for 81 a
day recently, have anothing to do with it,
for they did not give their approval to the
act. Things are in an unsettled state.
There is talk of forming a Vigilance Com
.ittee for the protection of life and prop
erty. The citizens think that men who
will forcibly, without authority Of law,
down and destroy property for 81 per
day, will take life for the same price. Geo.
M. Boutwell, and Thomas G.. Morgan have
been arrested, charged with house-breaking
and malicious mischief. The Justice Court
the warrants and held them in bonds
to answer to the charge on June 20.

SECOND DISPATCH.
nc GROUNDS, AUSTIN, Jun
me to-day stands. Alhinns


Mrs. j.. E. Walton, wife of the we'll
known cigar dealer of this city, says the
Virginia Chronicle, left for parts unknown
last Monday night. She has for some time
been on very friendly terms with one P.
G. Hickey, recently employed in the Union
Con. mine as engineer. Their intimacy
was noticed by her husband, who procured
a bill of separation from her, preferring
this course to putting a bullet into Hickey.
Mrs. Walton was in Carson a few days last
week, evidently waiting till Hickey called.
On Monday night both were seen to take
the train for the West. They got off at
Sacramento, and were seen in that city by
a friend of Walton. In conversation with
a Chronicle reporter, Walton said that
Hickey was a cheeky customer, WHO had
given him a great deal of trouble; that he
is not sorry for the departure Of his wife
under the circumstances.

TWO ADVENTUROUS DAMsELs.
They Run Away from Good Homes
to Become Waiter Girls.

Thursday evenings train brought two
maidens from the West, aged respectively
10 and 81, who gave their names as Miss
May Marston and Miss F. Holbrook. They
were consigned to the Truckee Saloon on
lower Main street, one as a waiter and
the other as q pianist and vocalist.
They made their first appearance in the
saloon on Friday night, and pleased the
proprietor so we'll that he imagined he had
struck another bonanza. On retiring yes
terday morning the girls expressed them
selves as highly pleased with their new life,
and thought they would like it. Later in the
day, however, the clouds began to gather,
and the new field became uncomfortably
warm for them. Sheriff Kyle had received
a message from the Chief of Police Of San
Francisco about two young ladies who had
run away from home, one from San Fran
cisco and one from Alameda. giving a par
tial description and intimating the
probability Of the girls having but
recently arrived in Eureka. The Sheriff
also received dispatches from the faith
ers OF the girls, one Of whom is a
prominent attorney in Alameda and
the other a mining operator in San Fran
cisco. The Sheriff interviewed the girls,
and after several denials they admitted
that they were the hayward daughters. He
therefore interested himself in behalf of
their parents, and made preparations to
start them on their homeward journey this
morning, but they may have been delayed
on account Of their baggage, which, we
understand, has been attached by Mr..
Provost, the proprietor Of the saloon, for
money advanced to pay their fare and ex-
penses to Eureka.

Meeting Of the Veterans

The members of the recently organized
Post Of the Grand Army Of the Republic
are requested to meet this evening in the
District Courtroom to hear the report Of
the Committee on Organization, and to Sc
lect a name for the Post, the Commander
of the Department Of the Pacific having
notified the Committee that the name of a
living general could not be used for that
purpose. The name of General P. E.
Common had been unanimously agreed
upon as the title for the Post, but it ap-
pears that a recent order from headquar-
tiers disapproves of honoring living heroes,
while there are scores of dead ones whose
names should be uppermost in the minds
of the veterans,
