MURDER AT KLAMATH.-U. S. Dis
trict Attorney Watson received q
letter from Rev. L. NJ. Nickerson,
Indian Agent at the klamath reser-
vation, stating that on July 18th an
Indian known as Spokane Ike shot
and killed another known as Shook
um Doctor. 1t seems that the doc
tor had been attending child of
Ike's, and it had died, whereupon he
took Henry rifle, and according to
Indian law and custom killed the un-
lucky physician, and fed toward the
Dalles, and is supposed to be max
ing his way to Colville, where he has
relations. Mr.. Nickersou has mott
fed the agents at Yakima, Warm
Springs and Colville of the murder,
and requested them to arrest the
murderer if seen. Judge Watson
states that the United States statutes
does not extend to cases where an
Indian commits an ohense against
the person or property of another In
dian, and therefore the matter comes
under the jurisdiction of the local or
state authorities.

FOUR MORE VICTIMS.
The Mutilared Bodies of Four Ameri- . can Prospect0rs Found m s5onOra.

Mr. J. A. Holley, better known to most Tombstone people as Texas, reached this city yesterday from Las Delicias, Sonora where he hsd been employed for some months back. MT. Holley reports finding
 the bodies of four Americans on the road between the Bachanochi and Cananea ranches on Monday last. They were ap- parently miners or prospcctors, and their bodies were horribly mutilated. They must have been at least twenty-four hours dead when he found them, as decomposi- tion was setting in. He did not recognize any of them. Two of them were com- pletely stripped of all clothes, while the others were partially dressed, They were within few yards ot each other. Letters and papers were scattered around but Holley did not wait to investigate the contents, as the Indian tracks in the vicinity were alarm ingly fresh. He WAS afraid the red devils were still in the vicinity, and thought the safest course for him to pursue was to hasten away frsn the ghastly scene as rap. idly as possible He reported seeing SIX Indians two miles this side of where the killing was done, but hid himself in an arroya until they passed out of sight. He is of opinion that the murderers were the same gang who killed Tom Johnson, and belonged to the party that made the raid in the Santa Cruz valley, as the SIX In dians he saw were heading in that direc- tiOp

 cor at Fort Huachuca arrived in town last evening from the post, and was soon after corralled by an EPITAPH man, who applied the news batteries to extract whatever h. dian information the captain was possess ed of. It was learned that the reported slaughter in the SOnoita valley was all u mistake, there being no hostile Indians this side of the line. Lieutenant Glass, who commanded the detachment sent out four or five days ago, penetrated about fifteen miles, and secuted the Santa Cruz valley thoroughly. The Mexicans hailed the advent of our troops with joy, and showered all the favors they were capable of on them. The alcalde of Santa Cruz sent out guides with the troops 10 point where it was reported the hostiles were in trenchsd in force. On arriving there, how ever, the troops found neither Indians CT a haCS VI tAsni. uCy ivuhu sAO hSh, ho" ever, and followed it closely until the junction of the Sonoita and Santa Cruz was reached Here the hsstiles evidently campsd for short while, and then turned southward, in the direction of Magdalena Some of the Indian scouts who accom- panied the command took trip up the Sonoita Valley, and it is more than likely that from this incident sprang the alarm in the southern wing of Pima county, The scouts were seen by some of the settlers, and the cry of "Indians!" was waited along almost as rapidly as the breczes. The settlers abandoned thelr homes and fled precipitously to Calabasas, spreading . report of Indian depredations that was multiplied twofold each time it was re- peated.
 Captain Madden is o. opinlen that the hostiles did not cross the line, but were dspredating with all their old yindictivs- ness on the other side. The people of Santa Cruz were in state of abjest terror, all the people of the valley having absn- doned their ordinary vacations and gone into the town for mutual protection. The band that swept through the Santa Graz valley numbered between eighty and a hundred men, and were all apparently well armed

INDIANS AT CALABASAS.
The Red Devils Reported Desolating
 the sOnOita Valley.


 A gentleman arrived from Fort Huachu- ca last evening bringing tidings of further outrages by Indians, this time nearer home. From the gentleman referred to it was learned that a courier had reached the Fort with the news of an Indian raid in the Sonoita and Santa Cruz valleys, and murdered not less than fifteen people in the neighborhood of Calabasas. The en- tire valley, from Crittendsn south, is de- serted, and the inhabitants fleeing in abject terror to Calabasss and other towns for protection. The savsges entered the valley from Sonora by the Santa Cruz, spreading death and desolation in their course. Men, women and children were ruthlessly slaughtered, houses burned and other specles of vandalism committed The inhabitants of Cslsbasas were report ed preparing for an attack, and resolved to give the red devils warm reception.
 On receipt of the news, Captain Madden, commander of the post, gave orders to the troops to prepare to march immediately, and by this time troops are hastening to the defense of the settlers. The company sent out a few days ago in the direction of the Santa Cruz have not yet been directly heard from, though report reached the post that they were on the trail of the hos tiles, and not far behind them.

The Primaries To-Day-The Candi- dates fer DeIesates-W Ward Club Meetings.
 Yesterday was rather a busy day for poll, ticians, the partisans of the candidates be- ing kept almost continually rustllng to obtain signatures to the ward clubs and select proper delegates to the county con vention. To day the primaries take place, and the contest will be narrowed down to the adherents of straight Democracy and some deputy Republicans nasquerading under the name of Independents. The dif- terent polling places will be described else where and voters should remember that none but true Democrats should be placed OF guard.
 So far as could be learned the following are the different tickets in the field:
 FIRST WARD.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC. D. Lynch, Samuel Purdy, Wm. Soule.
 NEAGLE. J. P. Johnson, E. Saul, w. ]. Weeks.
 SECOND WARD.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC. George Osborne, Chas. Solomon, l. L.. Roberts
 J. O'Nsil, c. Tribolet, G. Osborne
 THIRD WARD.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC, Robt, Archer, fl. Quigley, Joe Muller.
 NEAGLE. R. Archer, N. J. Kenealy, James Peck.
 FOURTH WARD.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC D. Qusid, Martin Nolan, Owen Daley,
 NEAGLE. James Flynn, John Dugan, B McArdle.
 NEPTUNE WELLS.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC. Henry Hause, Charles Meyers, s Marks.

 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC. A. Bernard.
 BISBEE.
 STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC. West Howell, Joseph Dyer, Wm Daniel. In Benson there are two Democratic tickets in the field as follows: Unpledgsd -J 0 Baily, D D Allen,J J c Kennedy, E Fl O'Melveny. Pledged to L W Carr-B Block, L L Hafer, John Riley, G W Bryan The straight Democratic delegates are in every instance honest honorable men, with whom it would be safe to cntrust the best interests of the party. About midnight the following tickets were launched The candidates for delegates are supposed to be pledged to Wm. c. Breckenridge.
 FIRST WARD. J. Lenoir, Nathan Leigh, L. ". Blinn.
 SECOND WARD. P. J. Lynch, Gee. Bevirage, R. B. Camp bell
 And still another for the Second ward, supposed to be friendly 10 L. W. Carr, of Benson: Lewis Ashmun, J. P. Johnson, Henry Hickson.
 The contest bids fair to be lively one, the partisans of the different candidates being warm and earnest in their work. --Ssp-

dering look in her eyes, an expression
of absence in her face, that told an ell
Oqent story of suffering and trial.
She Mrs. Langtry1 stood now upon
the promenade, gracefully poised upon
shapely and dainty feet that peeped
out from under IL short killed skirt of
blue serge. Her hands were employed
with her gloves, and her eyes aud fea-
lures with welcoming smiles for her
friends: and her appearance and bear
ing presented realization of their
ideal to the admirers of classic Greek
beauty-in all things harmony ; every
where gracefulness in outline, speech
and action, repOse. Her simple dress
was without trimming or ornament
other than a plastrOn of narrow gold
braid with a row of small buttons on
either side and gold braided cuffs.
From under a simple little hat which
did not hide the delicate moulding of
her temples hung Il heavy coil of lus-
trous, dark brown hair. Her photo
graphs have made known the lines of
her all but perfect profile, but they
have not limited at the loveliness of her
great violet eyes nor suggested the
marvellous mobility of her features.
In them and in the perfect purity of
her complexion lies the charm which
will perhaps compensate for the alb
sence of the brilliancy of style to which
Americans are partial. Mrs. Langtry's
voice is full and vibrant, and her
speech rich in melOdious mOdulations
that keep time with the expressive play
of her features.

Two Noted Ladies.

Nine. Nilsson, the famous singer,
and Mrs. Langtry, the famous English
beauty, otherwise known as the "Jer-
sey Lily" arrived in New York last
week, to fill engagements in this cOun-
try. The Tribune has the following
pen-pOrtraits of them, as they appeared
when they landed:
Nine. Nilsson was dressed in deep
mourning for her husband, whose

Her figure, when she was last in Amer
lea, was tall and somewhat spare ; in
clined, perhaps, a little to angularity.
Its lines have filled out and become
more graceful. The first impression is
that of a stout woman; but few mo-
ments' study suffices to show that the
fulness of her figure is only in proper
tiOn to her size, and the general effect
is improving to her appearance. There
are more lines in her countenance than
there were, and she appears cOnsidera-
bly, older. Indications of sorrow are
visible, however, in the large, open
cOuntenance, and to these may be at
tributed the appearance of advance
ment in age. The large grey eyes are
trifie smaller than they were. They
are further back in her head the eye
lids drOOp more and there are dark
circles which her admirers will see are
new. The expressive nOstrils are some
what thinner and have a pinched ap-
pearance, while the lines at the corners
of the mouth are drawn down and de-
cidedly marked. Her complexion is
paler and looks unhealthy. 1t is very
white and lacks the rich tone which
comes from an active circulation of the
blood. She readily answered all ques-

He Could Not Surrender.

The following is from Walt Whit
mans "Specimen Days and Collect" :"
under date of March 27, 1865 Sergt.
Calvin F. Harlowe, company C, 29th
Massachusetts, 3D. brigade, lst division,
9th corps-a marked sample of herOism
and death (sOme may say bravado, but
say herOism, of grandest, oldest Order)
in the late attack by the rebel troops,
and temporary capture, by them, of
Fort Stedman, at night. The fort was
surprised at dead of night. Suddenly
awakened from their sleep, and rush
ing from their tents, HarlOwe, with
others, found himself in the hands of
the ''secesh"-they demanded his sur
render-he answered. "Never, while
| live" (Of course it was useless. The
others surrendered the odds were too
great) Again he was asked to yield,
this time by IA rebel captain. Though
surrounded, and quite calm, he again
refused, called sternly to his comrades
to fight on, and himself attempted to
do so. The rebel captain then shot
him but at the same instant he shot
the captain. Both fell together NOR
tally wounded. Harlowe died almost
instantly. The rebels were driven out
in IL very short time. The body was
buried next day, but soon taken up
and sent home plymouth county,
Mass.) HarlOwe was only twenty
years of age--was tall, slim, dark
haired, blue-eyed young man-had
come out originally with the Doth and
that is the way he met his death, after
four years campaign. He was in the
seven days fight before Richmond, in
second Bull Run, Antietam, first Fred
ericsburg, Nicksburg, jackson, Will
derness, and the campaigns following
was as good soldier as ever wore
the blue, and every old officer in the
regiment will bear that testimony.
Though so young, and in common
rank, he had Il spirit as resOlute and
brave as any hero in the books, ancient
or modern it was too great to say ~
surrender'-an so he died (When |
think of such things, knowing them
well, all the vast and complicated
events of the war, on which history
dwells and makes its volumes, fall
aside, and for the moment, mt any rate,
see nothing but young Calvin Har-
loves figure in the night, disdaining
to surrender.)
