Little BOYS yindication.

Some months ago little boy named
Percy Howard was arrested for the larceny
of valuable diamond pin from a we'll
known lady under rather romantic circum-
stances. The little boys father being the
consular agent at Hull, England, he had
been left in charge of family in Union
town by whom he had been badly treated
and forced to run away. The boy came to
the Associated Charities for aid and
eventually was admitted to the household
of the lady referred to.
Shortly afterward the diamond breastpin
was lost, and suspicion pointing to the child
as the thief, she caused his arrest. The lady
came to see him and promised if he would
confess the theft he might go to his father,
otherwise he should be imprisoned. The
boy then said he had picked up pin on
the kitchen floor, whether diamond or not
he did not know, and put it into cigar
box where he had other trinkets. This
cigar box, with its contents, he had thrown
was tried next morning in the Police
Court, his confession being used against
him.
Mr.. Emory, of the Associated Charities,
volunteered to take the little fellow to
New York and send him home to England
if Judge Smell would permit it and this was
done. A few days ago, to the great joy of
the little fellows friends in this city, the
diamond pin which he was suspected of
stealing was found by the lady who had
missed it. 1t was found wrapped up in a
piece of old paper and lay in the casket
where was kept the family silver. This
vindication of his innocence is matter of
rejoicing among the few friends the lad had
in this city, who, while recognizing that he
stood sadly in need of proper training, yet
believed that he was honest and honorable.

THE INTELLIGENT CoMPoSIToR
And the Men of the Quill Enter
tanned by the Young ladies OF
Washington.


The members of the Young Ladies' Chris
tian Temperance Union are as sagacious as
they are winsome, for it requires tact and
beauty both to entrap into the snares of
femininity the representatives Of the press
and the knights of the 'art preventative"
This the young ladies did last night to a
highly successful degree, and now the lumi-
naries of the press and the Intelligent COM
positors" are voting the straight Y. l.. G. 7.
U. ticket. This successful
Feat of Legerden,ain
was accomplished last night. Responding
TO invitations from this well-managed
young ladies union a largo number of
editors, reporters and printers enjoyed a
social and literary entertainment last night
at the Temple Hotel. This complimentary
entertainment was not given this class Of
our enterprising citizens because they espe-
cially need the urbane and benign influ-
ence of the fair sex, but because the young
ladies of the Y. l.. c. r. U. having accom-
plished all other difficult trials with hui
manity, bethought themselves this last
feat. They succeeded most gracefully.
An Intelligent Feed.
When the intelligent guests had partaken
of the very elegant repast prepared in the
capacious dining-room, and the guests sat
at the board ready for something to ap-
tease their mental appetltes, MISS Cora b.
Thomas, who was called upon to preside,
delivered very beautiful address. Then
DIR. Rankin delivered an original poem di-
rected to the printers, in which he handled
the printers parlance and familiar phrase
ology from its composing in such a
graceful manner as to bring forth applause
from the entire party including the Sub
list" Miss NJ. L. B. Roberts sung lullaby so
sweetly that she received triple encore
Mrs. NJ. Stevens Hart delivered recitation,
Two Glasses" very beautifully, and Mrs
Clara Roach addressed the guests in her in
imitable manner. Mrs. Lydia Tilton re-
cited an original poem, and others re-
sponded to calls for good words, making the
mental feast as splendid as that prepared
for the physical.
The editors and printers return thanks to
Mrs. LaFetra and the Union for the enter
tainment.

DOUBLETRACKi JANNEY COUPLER
STEEL RAILS!
Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1883-03-16

Thomas Fitzpatrick was in town yester-
day and gives a statement Of the fracas
that occurred at his station on Wednesday
afternoon, which is quite different from
that published in the SENTINEL yesterday
as given by Walter Jackman. Mr.. Fitz-
patrick staten that the man Jackman was
not in his employ at the time of the alter
cation; moreover, that he is q man whose
reputation among the teamsters is any
thing but good; that Jackman had been
accused Of a theft, and, on the afternoon
mentioned, got into a passion with him
for not keeping him posted as to what the
men on the road were saying about him in
this respect. To this Mr.. Fitzpatrick said
he replied that he was not protecting
thieves. Thereupon Jackman applied to
him a vile name and rushed upon him.
He was standing near the counter and
as Jackman advanced upon him he picked
up the nut Of a bolt and struck him on the
head with it. Jackman lowered his head
then and tried to grapple with him, buth
struck him another blow on the back Of
the head with the nut. which he held in
his hand. when Jackman dropped back
wards. There was nobody in the room
during the fracas but Fitzpatrick and
Jackman. Mr.. Fitzpatrick's statement
with regard to the character and reputa-
ton Of Jackman is confirmed by W.. G.
Reveal.

A Running Pistol Fight at Long

A Running Pistol Fight at Long
Range.
Sunday evenings twilight at Lewis was
enlivened by a duel, the narrowing details
of which are given to the Reveille by it's
correspondent as follows:
As John P. Courier, who is Superin-
tendent Of several mills and mines here,
and j.. +. Dennis, an attorney, were walk
ing down Main street to Pugh's hotel for
their supper, James H. barnes, a mill
wright, walked up to within Is feet of
Dennis, and said, s'Now fight
ing" and at the same instant pointing a
pistol at him. Dennis had in the mean
time passed behind Courier, aud was
trying to get out of the way. barnes
fired. the ball whizzing close to Courter's
head.
Dennis then retreated down the street.
He says his pistol caught in his pocket,
but when 100 yards from barnes he
brought it to bear on barnes, who had
got in another shot. Dennis pistol missed
fire. He still kept retreating and trying
to get his pistol to work. He finally sue
ceeded in getting his pistol to working,
and after his first shot, barnes replied
with his third shot. There were three or
four shots fred by each party. when Con-
stable Hicks and Deputy Baugh arrested
them both.
The trouble began Saturday night, when
barnes insulted Dennis at the supper
table, and Dennis knocked him down.
Later in the evening Dennis was going to
the Postof1ce, when barnes struck at him
with a knife as he was walking on Push's
porch, or at least Dennis says he did. II
is said that barnes had been Watching for
Dennis all day.
1t is fortunate that no n was hurt.
barnes is moi supposed to be q very dan
gerous man, and would get along we'll if
he would keep his tongue still. Dennis is
q peaceable citizen, and attends to his own
business. barnes is II, Jail. Dennis Is on

CATTLE TAX,
A knotty Question In the supreme
Court.

n AnOtty question In the supreme
Court.
Now that the season of assessment has
come around the question which has often
given trouble recurs, as to which county
the tax on certain cattle shall be levied.
The case Of Fred. Barnes against Wood
bury, which is now before the Supreme
Court, it is expected, will be determined in
a few days. Unless a decision is reached
shortly the same difficulty which gave rise
to it will be likely to occur again. 1t will
be remembered that the cattle of Fred.
Barnes, having been assessed in Eureka
County, were reassessed in White Pine by
Assessor Woodbury.. The cattle in ques-
ton ranged in both Eureka and White Pine
Counties, but the residence of the owner,
Fred. Barnes, is in Eureka County. The
Assessor Of this county assessed the prop
erty on the ground that though the cattle
sometimes ranged beyond the Eureka
County boundary lines the residence Of
their owner should determine the
place of their taxation. On the other
hand, Assessor Woodbury., finding
the cattle in question grazing in
White Pine County during the period
of assessment, levied upoa them as he did
upon all other property then within his
Jurisdiction. 1t seems but reasonable that
stock, where it ranges in two or more
counties, should be taxed in that county
only in which the owner of it resides.
There can be no other definite way that
appears to us of settling the vexed ques-
ton. If stock grazes exclusively in a
oo,,nkr- rf r,hioh tho nwnor 10 mt q rooi-
dent, there is no question as to where the
levy should occur; but, other wise, if cattle
are not assessed in the one county in which
the owner resides, there will always be
confusion in the matter, and the same
stock may be assessed to the same person
in three or four different counties. 1t is
possible, even owing to tho moving Of
cattle during q whole season, to subject
them to taxation in almost every county
in the State. If they are assessable in one
county of which their proprietor is a non
resident they may be assessed as well
also in all the rest in which they may
happen from time to time to be graz
ing for a day or 30. 1t not only ap-
pears to be the only reasonable way
OF putting an end to the controversy to
make stock assessable but once, and that
in the county in which the proprietor re-
sides, but in practice it will be found gen.
orally satisfactory to the different coun-
ties. In Elko and Humboldt, counties
from the northern boundary of which
cattle are driven into Idaho every Sum-
mer, the Assessors would know, under
such a rule. just how to act, and thereby
bring under assessment property that has
escaped taxation every year. In the other
counties the advantage will not be 30
material, but it will be great in this, that
it will put an end to disputes and obviate
lawsuits.
