A DEPLORABLE AFFAIR.

Elsewhere in this issue will be
found report of the deplorable oc-
currence at the mouth of Quigley
gulch, last Monday evening. 1t is
furnished by Mr. Cavanah, and NAV
therefore be said to be ex parte; but
any one who knows that gentleman
will accept it as accurate. The ac-
cused has not been interviewed on
the subject, but, judging from the
mar ~ scrapes or rows into which he
has already got because of the fence
in question, and his oft-repeated
statements that he would not allow
travel through the ground fenced,
the conclusion is justified that the
affair occurred just as above stated.
Such an OF currence would be ex-
ccedingly deplorable at any time:
but it is doubly so in this particular
instance. Mr.. Fisher IS gentleman
Of unlimited means, who has been
induced to visit this section in the
hope that he could see something
worth his while to take hold of. He
has not invested to any extent, but
was believed to be on the point of
doing so, and this experience is cal
culated to lead to anything but the
desired result.
Another regrettablc feature of this
affair is the contempt for constitu-
ted authority that Quigley's ac-
tions evince. This, however, can be
remedied by the preferment Of a
charge of resisting IN officer, and il
the accused is found guilty by pass
ing such sentence upon him as will
deter all eyil-disposed persons from
initiating his example.
We hope to see the accused get a
falr trial, but that, if proved guilty,
the full penalty of the law will be
dealt out to him.

A VALUABLE WATER. RIGHT.
J. 2. Ennis Takes Up the Island Op.
posite HALEY, 5000 Inches OF Water,
and n ssBoOm. Site.

Sunday last J. 2. Ennis located, and
had recorded, the island in Wood
river, opposite Haley, the slough be-
tween it and the main land, and a
claim by virtue of which he is EMIT
led to divert and use 5000 inches of
water from the river. Mr.. Ennis also
recorded a claim to put in boom
across the main Wood river at any
point on Wood river between HALEY
and Galena. The island is triangular
piece of ground, two sides of which
are about l50 yards long, the other
being AGO yards long. The slough
begins just below the bridge, at the
mouth of Croy's gulch. The new
location therefore virtually controls
that gnlch. Mr.. Ennis says that by
virtue of his right he can gather all
the wood cut in the various oulches,
float it down to Haley, and deliver
it for less money than it can be
hauled for from Deer Creek, a dis
lance of five miles from HALEY.
There Is no doubt but that he is
right. And it is surprising that
somebody has not seen this before
and taken up the claim.

A CHANGE.

We observe that the Daily Repor
and other San Francisco papers-be
sides the Mining and Scientifi,
Press, which has done so all along
are beginning to quote mining items
from the TINES. That is an evi
dence of the fact that San Francis
cans are at last awakening to tho
Importance Of Wood River as a field
for investment in mining enterprises
Heretofore but one large concern
the Pacific Iron Work -and three
capitalists, to-wit: j. b. Haggin,
Colonel Green and Colonel A. f.
Brewster, have operated here to any
extent. The Pacific Iron Works
have supplied us with the three
shelters which alone are in success
full operation to-day, besides send
ing here the Ornament works, which
are the only hosting works in this
section worthy Of the name. The
Pacific works have also supplied the
two furnaces for Muldoon, just be,
ing put in place, and the first class
lO-stamp furnace mill of the Colum-
bia 4 Beaver Company at Sawtooth.
Colonel Green has become inter
ested-he was in fact the ''promoter
or organizer of the companies-in the
Pilgrim mine, Of Sawtooth, the Phila-
delphia company mines and furnaces,
at ketchum, and the Muldoon mines
and furnaces at Muldoon. Colonel
Brewster is Tor was until very recent
ly) heavily interested in the Pilgrim,
of Sawtooth, and the Columbia and
Beaver mines and mill.
The above-named gentlemen and
the lronworks firm have undoubtedly
done well, and Colonel Green would
probably not sell out his properties in
this section to-day for one million dol
lars. AS to J. b. Haggin, we doubt
IT twice that amount would purchase
his interest in the Solacc group, al
though there is not that amount sin
sight"
But these are all. The remaining
99-1OOths of prominent California
mining men have either ignored US
altogether, or, like George w. Gray
son, came here and found the country
"too young" for them. Their news
papers, taking their cue from them,
also neglected US until now, when it
seems that they are really finding out
that our present doings and future
movements are of great interest to
them.

SHOOTING AND CUTTING.
William Quigley Attacks and Wounds
Three Peacefully Disposed Citizens.


Last Monday evening, about 4
o'clock, Frank p. Cavanah. accom-
panied by Mr.. Fisher and Constable
Foulks, left HALEY in 4 buck board,
for the purpose of examining some
mining property located about five
miles up Quigley gulch. AT the
mouth Of the gulch they found the
road fenced up, and were obliged to
take down a panel of fence in order
to proceed. Leaving the fence down
they went on their way, intending to
put it up on their return. When
they did return to the fence they
found that the panel had been re-
placed and man was sitting upon
the fence with small AK in his
hand. As they approached he
greeted them with: ''You ID
SIS of BIS, you can't go through
here Mr. Cavanah aliehted and
approached the man, saying: "Why,
man, you have no right to fence up
this road It is public highway,
and Travelled road The man,
whose nameis Quigley, then got down
and rushed upon Cavanah with ak
upraised and quickly struck him a
blow upon the head, staggering and
dazing him considerably but not fell
ing him. Quigley followed Mr.. Cav
anah up, striking at him as he re
treated, wariing off the blows until
he reached the blackboard, and secur-
ed a pick. About this time Con
stable Foulks had drawn his pistol and
covered Quigley, ordering him to de
sist. Mr.. Foulks and Quigley closed
and scutlled for the possession OF the
AK and pick which he had wrested
from Mr.. Cavanah. Mr.. Fisher ran
up and got possession Of the ak and
pick, throwing them over the fence.
Then Constable Eoulks, not caring to
shoot him, simply arrested Quigly,
and put his pistol back into his peck
ct. Quigley then made a grab for
the pistol, seized it and Immediately
began to shoot, firing three shots on
", one of which took effect above
Foulks's knee, ranging down to and
lodging in the calf Then Quigley
began beating Foulks over the head
with the pistol, cutting him very bad
y in a dozen places, Mr.. Cavanah,
who had by this time taken the fence
down, grappled with Quigley, got him
down and made him promise to de.
slst-after which he let him up. They
then assisted F'oulks INTO the buggy
and came to town, where DR.. Miller
dressed the wounds and extracted the
bullet.
The injuries received by F'oulks are
severe, but not dangerous. Mr.. Cav
anah suffered severe hruise on the
left temple, while Mr.. Fisher escaped
with scratch from the pick upon the
check.
As soon as the affair became known,
Justice Parsons went out to the ranch
and arrested Quigley on a charge of
assault with intent to kill, and the
next morning Quigley was held in
$4,000 bonds, to appear before the
Grand Jury.
Constable Foulks is getting along
well, and may BE out in week or
two. The other gentlemen are about,
as usual.

of the crevice, and it paid well, but to
us the pay now seemed small in COM
parison. Now each had enough. We
had at least $50, 900 to divide, enough to
make all three comfortably rich. No
doubt we could have made more by ex-
hibiting it, but we could not run the
risk. We came to the conclusion to cut
it up, divide it, roll each ones share up
in his own blankets, and start for the
steamer to Panama and the Atlantic
states. / went to town on Monday
evening, got sharp cold-chisel made to
cut and divide the prize in equal shares,
and it took us about all night to cut and
weigh it with our rude appliances.
"It seemed like vandalism to destroy
the grandeur of such a splendid speci-
men of natures work. At the first blow
of the chisel it sank deep into the pure
yellow metal, it was so soft and yielding.
Before daylight we had completed our
singular dividend. We caved down the
bank near the mouth of the DRIFT, took a
brief sleep, got breakfast, rolled up our
blankets and passed through town early,
not caring to bid anyone goodbye, and
then no explanations were required. We
left the cabin and everything for the first
lucky ones to possess. There was plenty
more gold, no doubt, for the ground we
left contained big pay; but we had &c.
900 or ST., 900 each, and were satisfied
with our good fortune. We tried to ap-
pear like three prospectors, carrying our
blankets and passed Goodyear Hill and
the dreaded Niger Tent (then the beat of
the road agents) and hurried to San
Francisco, arrived in time to board the
next steamer, and landed safely in New
York. I have many time regretted the
way we spoiled that natural gold speci-
men, perhaps the largest ever found in
the world, in ancient or modern times"
When returned to Downieville after
fourteen years absence, visited the old
Slate Castle ravine and tried iEonce more,
but twenty years had nearly exhausted
its riches; still I tried and made small
wages, but its glory had departed. My
old partner, Dodge, was an earnest,
truthful man. I believe tons of gold
were carried below in the early times by
the lucky ones, and all kinds of devices
were adopted to evade the highwaymen,
and often large parties went
below together well armed; and,
perhaps, many a large nugget,
besides millions of dollars in gold
dust never again saw the light until it
was safely deposited in the banks or
mint of the Atlantic states.

A Mixed Family.

There are some children in San Fran
cisco who claim the unique distinction
of having in their veins the blood of all
five races into which mankind is divided.
Their great-grandfather was part ne
gro and part American Indian; their
great-grandmother was a native Sand
wich Islander; hence their grandmother
was negro, Indian, Malay. She married
their grandfather who was Chinaman,
which added Monaghan strain to their
mothers blood, while their father, a
white man, contributed the Caucasian
element to their compound organiza-
tons. Hence they might be called
"colored children, uniting as they do
white, black, red, yellow and brown.

A Musical Prodigy.

The son of David Neal, the famous
American painter, who lives in Munich,
at the age of 9 years exhibited the most
marvellous musical powers, and heard his
own compositions played by the band of
the famous Prince Royal regiment. He
was lifted above the heads of people and
musicians to receive the applause and
their recognitions as composer. The
new Mozart they call him. He is now II
years old, and is all the time composing.
He improvised on the piano while he
wore bibs. La one of his letters at
Christmas to the Christkind," he men
toned but one gift, and that the most
involved and learned volume of essay on
composition. For days after receiving it
he was up at o'clock in the morning
devouring its pages. Strauss has been
TO see him, taken him In his arms and
shed some tears over him.

To ForetelI the Weather,

If the sun sets in crimson clouds and
rises brilliant, or if the stars are numer-
GUS and bright, we know in general
way that we may reckon on the duration
of fine weather.
Dews and white morning frosts are
symptoms of clear days.
A dark and vapory sun, and sickly-
looking moon with blunt hons, and a
circle around her, or pallid, big and non
sclntlllating stars, are all signs of ap-
preaching rain.
If the sun comes up pale and then
turns red, or if the moon is large and
ruddy, with sharp, black horns, we may
count on wind.
The chickweed is called "the poor
mans barometer" because it shuts up
it's flowers when wet is approaching.
The aurora borealis, when very
bright forebodes stormy, most, unsettled
weather.
A haze around the sun indicates rain;
it is caused by fine rain or mist in the
upper regions of the atmosphere.
A halo around the sun has often been
followed by heavy rains.
A halo around the moon is also an in
dication of rain. The larger the halo the
nearer the spell.
Lack of dew is another rain sign.
Sharp, white frosts in autumn and
winter precede damp weather, and three
successive white frosts are an unfallible
sign of rain.
Previous to rain the flies bite sharper
and stick to us closer, and bees remain
In the hive.
But few of the many signs briefly in
stanced only apply to the immediate fu-
ture, and have nothing to do with the
far-seeing prophets whose prognostica-
tions, also largely based upon natural
causes, peer into future months-nay
years in advance.

A Mounting Martinez.

After the Ashantee war 10 South Afri-
ca, Sir Garnet Wolsely, now command
ing the British forces in Egypt, received
some additional letters to his name and
a parliamentary grant of $125, 900. He
is now Knight Grand Cross of the Or
der of the Bath, SO that nothing remains
to be awarded to him in the way of addi-
tional honors save a peerage. This, if
given, will have to accompanied by a
large grant of money and pension if the
dignity is to be sustained in the manner
additionally deemed BETTING, and all
the more so in view of the queens we'll
known dislike to creating poor man a

THE BARNS A. AT REST.

There was din, as We meier heard the like,
'Mang our BARNS the NIGHT roun' the hre-en';

But there's peace now, they're a. cuddled doun
Now, the BARNS are asleep, and calm
Has fam roun' like soft cleaning shade,
And kind Hand unseen sheds a balm
Der their wee limbs in WEAKNESS laid.

Sic an evenly sweetness o rest,
That ye'd doubt but they'd borrowed wee
Frae the far-awa' realms o. the blest.

And our chances o. love on it shine

But, hurrah for the BARNS that haze grown
Like living love wreath roun' the heart
Ha let's wheesht + AS we warm in their praise,

See, already shot out frae the claes
Just as 1.-THE wee limbs in the toon!

On these lips fresh as mornings in May:

More o. promise than Sprinng-Ouds are giv'p,
That must meet the worlds favor or strife,
And shall make them or mar them for heavn.

upon, after recharging the breech and
with the same ball, he shot the latter at
a pine board about one-fourth of an
inch thick, or pane OF glass, and it
passed through. The experiment, M.
Colladon says, is without danger if the
operator is sure of the strength Of his
thumb If the gun is more than thirty
two inches long, and if the ball is spher-
1cal and nearly fills the gun Tin which it
must act like piston). The least I'M
certainty in the very vigorous pressure
OF the thumb and the hermetic closure
OF the gun, may entail serious injury to
the thumb. While M. Colladon has re-
peated the experiment twenty or thirty
times without the least inconvenience
either from shock or heat, trial of it is
perhaps hardly to be recommended.

THE. HOME DOCTOR.
DRESSING soAups OR BURNS.

DhESS1NG SCALDS Ok BURNSs
Do not wash the wound, and do not
dress it oftener than on alternate days.
Do not rub or roughly handle the affect
ed parts. If there be much discharge,
do not wipe, but gently sop with soft
cloth. No ulcer should be often dressed,
as by removing the excrement we are
likely to rub off also the new flesh.
MIXTURE FOR A COUGH OR COLD.
Take one teacupful of haxseed and
soak it all night. In the morning put
into kettle two quarts of water,
handful of lquorice-root split up, one
quarter of pound of raisins broken in
half. Let all boil half an hour or more,
watching and stirring, that the mixture
may not burn. Then strain and add
lemon-juice and sugar.
ONE USE OF THE LIVER.
The liver is one grand filter of the
body. All of the blood which passes
from the smaller intestines, passes
through it, that it may be filtered, de-
prived of its grosser impurities, called
bile-as one means of avoiding harm to
the lungs, the great mission of which is
to purify the blood This bile passes
into the duodedum at an angle to indi-
cate that its course is onward and not
into the stomach, where it comes only by
accident, as an intruder. In the bowels
it serves the valuable purpose of s'nature's
physic all that is ever needed in
health, when the liver does its duty.
The bile never overhows into the
blood, but the liver may fail to filter out
its impurities, when sallow look will
show that the blood remains impure,
from this cause. City and Country.
sCALD HEAD.
This appearance is the result of bad
state of the system-bad- blood--the hui
mors affecting the head often in conse-
quence of neglect of cleanliness, or too
rough combing or brushing of the head.
There are cases in which wet cloths ap-
piled to the head, wet in arnica and
water four parts of water and one of
arnlca), may soon remove the difficulty
If there is not too much of impurity in
the system seeking an escape in this way.
Such child should be muchin the open
air, be regular in taking food, eat the
simplest knds-the less the better of
grease, salt, and the sweets generally.
The parts may be bathed in arnica, gly-
cerine or sweet oil, to protect them from
the irritation of the air, etc. In specially
stubborn cases, 1t is well to produce an
irritation in another part Of the body, by
the mustard or blister-plaster, diverting
it from the head, since the head is more
likely to be attacked than most parts of
the body. Its appearance is not mis-
fortune, but the location is not the best.
BY no means use any sugar of lead or
anything like it-an active poison and
do not attempt to " dry it up or sud-
denly cure it, since there is always dan
ger of driving it to some internal organ,
some unsafe place; it is safer to do moth
ing, allowing nature to care for it, than
to do wrong. It is not best to "dabble +"
with unknown neutrality-suspicious. to
listen to all told you by your neighbors,
who may know nothing of the matter,
though they may have had many
children, which fact never gives intelli-
gence.-City and Country.
