Dirty work.

\ number of INSCRIPTIONS
politicians have been circulating
the report during the past day
or 50 10 the effect that Alfred
Helm secured the registration
of a young man under 81 years
of age. The facts of the case
are that John Quill, Jr., came
to Mr.. Helm and said that he
wanted to be registered. Mr..
Helm noticing how young he
looked asked him if he was of
age, and the boys reply was, II
think / am" Mr.. Helm then
said: "Go and see for certain
before you register, and don't
register unless you are twenty
one" The young man went
and registered without taking
any more pains to establish the
facts regarding his age. Mr..
Quill spoke TO Mr.. Helm next
day and said that the boy was
not twenty-one. The son, how
ever, insisted that he was and
argued that the baptismal reg
lister in the possession of his
mother would prove it. The
mother, however, searched the
record and found that it would
be several months yet before he
was 81. Mr.. Helm then had
the name taken off the register.
These are the simple facts of
the story which for the past few
days has been haWked about the
streets by the Fusionists to de-
feat Mr.. Helm.

Gilmore's Springs

| Mr.. n. Gilmore, the proprie-
tor of Gilmore's Springs, has
been i'm the city several days
Knowing that Doc. Benton, pro-
prietor of the famous Glen
Alpine mineral water, has been
charged with making the water
| out of old roof drippings and
iron rust, an APPEAL reporter
interviewed MFR. Gilmore rela-
tive to the spring. He said that
the water gushed up from the
ground about two and q half
miles from Fallen Leaf Lake in
the Sierra Nevada mountains.
1t is as coid as ice and sparkles
like champagne. Its principal
constituent is iron and it tinges
everything that it touches,
and the stream that flows away
from the spriug is red for sav-
eral hundred yards until 1t l,
joined by other streams. Ben-'
ton puts up about Il hundred
dozen bottles a week, taken
direct from the spring, and
corked under water. This
Statement. will relieve the public
mind relative to the theory of
dissolving rusty nails to make
minera, water. There is talk of
conveying the water down to
the TaIlac House by means of
pipes. and experiments are
being made to test the practi-
cability of So doing. The road
to the spring from Fallen Leaf
Lake, which is two miles from
Tallac, is one of the most ter
ribie on the coast. It was built
by Mr.. Gilmore, who has Pc
culiar faculty for making high
ways where the country seems
impossible. In one
place the horses have to climb
up a sort Of cascade, there being
no other possible way, as the |
road is walled by rocks on each |
side sixty or eighty feet high |
and perpendicular. Tie high
way, however, is being i'm
proved each year by Mr.. Gill
more, and the casualties to
are growing less and
less each season.

The slayer Claims to Have Acted
I'm Self Defence.

| But little is known of the re.
cent homicide in Carson Valley,
the only eye witness of the af-
fair refusing to talk. AS near as
the APPEAL can learn, the par
ticulars are as follows: Christian
Nargaar, the young man who
did the killing, came Off ODDS
ranch about l O'Clock Monday
afternoon, and hai!ing a passing
wagon, said that he had killed
John McGuiHn and wanted to be
takan to Genoa. On the way he
said he had acted in self defence
and would have been killed him
self if he had not shot as he did.
Parties who went for the body
found it lying about six hun
dred yards from the road in
meadow. The deceased was
lying on his back with a self
cooking British bull dog in his
right hand, cooked but not dis
charged. He had been shot in
the mouth. the wound making
q hole about two inches across
and carrying away a portion of
the nose and lower jaw. There
were no indications of a strug-
gle, the man having fallen dead
in his tracks. \ rancher who
was passing the place saw the
firing from the road, but re
fuses to say anythin z further.
The general Q; inion in Genoa is
that McGuinn wanted to drive
Nargaar off the ranch that he
had rented. He recently served
an attachment on Nargaar before
the rent was due, but this was
settled, and for several
days past the two lived together
in the same house. McGuinn
has the reputation OF being a
quarrelsome MAN who gets over
his anger in a few hours and |
ready to be on friendly terms
soon afterwards. There is
strong sympathy expressed for
the Dane, but another theory is
that the body and pistol were
placed in position for effect.

The Fusion Meeting.

The Fusionists held a meet
ing at the Opera House last
evening, but the attendance was
not as large as Oh the previous
occasion. Mr.. c. n. Harris
made an address, in which he
reviewed the politics of Ormsby
county for several years hack,
and showed the various methods
resorted to by the Republicans
to elect a delegation to the Reno
Convention. but on suddenly
realizing that he was talking on
State politics was obliged to
retrace his oraterical steps and
endorse the terrible Club amid
loud laughter. Mr.. George E.
Hill read from manuscript
history Of the English Govern
ment prior to the regime of
Charles H., which showed
careful preparation. The per
iodical rushes TO Sweeney's
saloon across the street must
have been very gratifying to the
proprietor. The Republicans
present expressed themselves
as delighted with the amusing
entertainment.

The CauiHS Case

Yesterday morning at 10
o'clock Justice Cary fined the
editor Of the APPEAL $50 for an
assault and battery on G.. n.
Harris. The fine included the
costs Of the case. The attorneys
for the defendant gave notice Of
an appeal from the judgment,
and the defendant was allowed
to go on his own recognizance.
About an hour and a half after
wards Mr.. Davis was served
with a commitment by the
Sheriff, who had instructions to
confine him in Jail unless the
fine was paid at once. The
defendant was taken somewhat
by surprise at this, as he had
expected to have been allowed
at least the rest Of the day to
file his appeal bonds. There
was no alternative and he paid
the fine. During the trial, the
day before, testimony was taken
to show the nature of the assault
and the defense introduced tes-
tinony to show that the assault
had not been made with Il dead
ly weapon or from behind as
had been alleged. The princi-
pal witness for the prosecution
this fact and was
corrOborated by DR.. Lee. 1t
was shown that the weapon used
was not a club, but a rattan cane
weighing less than three ounces.
The cane had been split to
pieces by The blows upon the
face of the prosecuting witness,
but the ferrule was put in evil
lence to show the size of the cane.
1t was the intention Of the attOr-
ney to have carried the case TO
The District Court on appeal, but
he summary collecting of the fine
practically puts a stop to further
proceedings.

could have made $4,000 with An incu-

A Great Will Contest.

PHILADELPHIA, May 3, 1882. Ar.
gunent was heard this morning before
the Supreme Court in the Cameron
case. This arose upon an appeal from
the Register of Wills of Union county
admitting the will of William Cameron
to probate. The validity of the will,
which was dated March 26, 1878, and
which gave the bulk of an estate
Amounting to nearly 1900, 900 to his
daughter, Mrs. N. M. Packer, 10 contest
ed by ono Of his grandchildren, Mrs.
Martha G. House, and his other daugh-
ter, Mrs. Jane Harrison, upon the
ground that undue influence had been
used to effect Mr.. Cameron's disposition
of his property. The alleged will was
written by John B. Packer, the hus-
band of Mary M. Packer. BY It's pro-
vision 1t gave his widow, Eleanor, .
life estate in all his property. Subject
to her estate two farms were divised to
j. d Packer, charged with the payment
of legacies of el0, 600 each to four grand
children, two farms, worth $4,000,
to DR.. +. G. Harrison; $780, 200 to Mrs.
Jane Harrison, and after some other
minor bequeaths the balance, about
nine tenths Of his whole estate, to Mrs
Mary M. Packer. Three OF her Wills
were procured, male between 1867 and
1875, which, with their different
codicils, show that by his will Of April
10, 1867 he had, with exception OF other
bequests, divided his property equally
between the two sisters, but that since
that time he had gradually reduced the
amour, Of his legacy to Mrs. Harrison
and increased that of Mrs Packer.
Upon the refusal of the Orphans Court
of Union county, to award an issue to
try the validity of the will by jury
Mrs Harrison appealed to the Supreme
Court.
