The "boys," to the number Of so or
more, turned out about2 o'clock yesterday
morning and treated Alex. Aguayo, the
groom. to one Of the met artistic chari-
yaris ever gotten up in this part Of the
country. Two dry goods boxes were put
in position near by the marital dwelling
and covered q half inch thick with pull
verified rosin. An 1s-foot board, Ia inches
by 2, was laid by the boxes for service on
edge, with four muscular young bucks at
each end. A snare-drum and . base-drum
from the Truckee were brought into
requisition, while every harsh toned horn
that could be had was likewise brought to
bear. All the empty tin cans that could
be gathered we're likewise brought to the
spot. To complete the outfit pregnant
with horrid noises every man who had
nothing else to split the air with carried y
club, which it was understood he was to

screamed at once in all conceivable tones;

the coal oil cans collapsed under the
blows which brought forth from them

added all the startling noises Of which
human voice is capable, made the air
quiver and caused the dwelling houses in
The neighborhood to shake. Sleeping
men. women and children woke up reel

hands. A number staggered and ran
aoout wildly o. though they had been
struck by . cross between an active vol
