A STARTLING MURDER.
"I Am Dying, Indian Charley
Done IT,

Done IT,
We get through j. W. Simpson, of Cur
rant Greek, Nye county, the following in
formation in regard to q startling murder
in his neighborhood: On the 18th inst,
Edward Lamb, a rancher and stockman,
was found dead in his cabin on White
River. A jury Of inquest found that he
came to his death by a bullet wound from
some frearm; and that Indian Charley, an
Indian well known in the White River Val
ley, is believed to have done the killing.
Deceased was IS years old, and q native of
Ohio. The body was found in the cabin
of the deceased by Mr.. Edwards on the 18th
day Of November. The jury of inquest
went over from Currant Greek on the 18th
and made the verdict, as above. The right
arm OF the deceased was found shattered
by q bullet which entered the body at
the srmpit, but did not go through.
He evidently was not killed instantly. The
last he wrote in his diary was Oct. 80; bat
on the same kind Of paper was found q
note saying: II I'm dying. Indian
Charley done it." The paper and pencil
were found lying on the ground by the
corpse. He wrote it with his left hand, as
his right was 30 badly shattered by the
bullet that he couldn't use it. 1t can only
be a guess as to- how long he lived, but he
must have written under pain and distress.
or he would have made q fuller and palmer
statement. But he wrote plain enough to
name his murderer. Mr.. Simpson con-
cludes his note thus: .This is the third
man that has been killed in this neighbor-
hood since the first Of July, and I think 1t
is time to stop some OF it."

II Ia TO be regretted that Mr.. Blaine
finds II SO hard to realize that the Presi-
Dental election is over. Our dispatches
this morning contain comments from sew
eral New York papers on a speech he made
Al Augusta, Maine, Wednesday. We judge
from the report that his speech was, at
least, very indiscreet, il not incen-
diary. He seems to have Haunted
the bloody shirt again in the most
offensive manner. In effect, he calls
upon the Senate OF the United States to
dispute the right Of members to be
elected this Winter from the Southern
States to seats in that body. He would
have q test made Of their credentials to
determine whether their election has been
by the freely expressed viii Of the people
or by coercion and fraud. Such a propo-
sition comes with poor grace from him.
There are no means on earth that he
would have hesitated to use to secure his
own election; and it is, perhaps, only
natural In him 10 measure other men by
his own gusge. Despite Mr.. Blaine and
his ill-timed slurs, the facts show that the
rseen. election in the Southern States was
without suspicion OF force or intimidation;
that In that section there was a perfectly
free and cheerful exercise OF the franchise
by oil citizens alike. We are fully con-
vinced that the will Of the people was ex-
pressed at the ballot box in the South
generally with less hindrance or restraint
than in almost any Northern State Of the
Union. Take Nevada for example. Mr..
Jones will be elected United States Sena-
tr from this State by the Legislature that
meets in Carson next Winter. Let . SEN
ssorial inquisition be formed to go behind
Mr.. Jones certificate of election. We need
not intimate what the developments would
DO but We will say that 1t would bring
devilish little Of the voice Of God or the
freely expressed will Of the people" A
single Saxon word of one syllable would
Veil the whole story-sack. Go the round
and you will find the same ~conquering
agent, under other and more ~euphonious
names, perhaps, shaping Senatorial des-
snies in every State north Of Mason and
Dixon's line. But above this line Mr..
blaine's keen scent detects nothing rotten
Whether ambitious men In the South buy
Senatorships now we do not know. Ii
sney DO. they are on the same immoral
plane with aspiring Yankee statesmen
sus otherwise. what Is there TO indicate
mat any improper means have been
fesorted to in the South, in the matter oil
siecsing Legislatures to vote for United
S'ates Senators, that are not utilized to
inc fullest extent for the same purpose in
sne North AS to the Senators who Will
DO chosen from the Southern States this
winter, there will hardly be mi OF them
mat would not blush to think Of q possible
comparison OF himself with Mr.. Blaine on
'as ground Of personal honor or faithful
ness to public trust. Mr.. Blaine Is q very
brilliant man, but, II his Augusta speech
nas been correctly reported, he shows him
veil to be a revolutionist at heart and
sOsmy Of his country.

HIS CHARACTER.
The deceased had the reputation Of be-
ing u cheerful, honorable man. He had
no enemy in the world that we have ever
heard Of, unless it was himself. He was
well liked by nearly everybody, and he
was the last man that anybody thought
likely to commit suicide. He was q good
carpenter and industrious when work was
to be had. In the Lodge of Knights of
Pythias, whore the writer knew him best,
he was regarded as a good, worthy and
faithful man and brother.
His grief stricken widow is an excellent
lady and held in the highest esteem by her
neighbors. She proved herself a most
patient and devoted wife. The commu-

BURIED GOLD RECOVERED.
The Treasure Which Farmer M'Daniel
Found I'm His Field.

Found In HIS FleId.
ISLAND SHOALS, GA, March 16.-Samuel
M'Daniel, a young farmer, was yesterday
in one of his fields blowing. The plow
,aught in some obstruction. Urging the
mule, he found the plow had caught in
he handle of a fve-gallon jug which he
pulled out OF the ground. The jug had
a cork stopper, sealed with sealing wax
and piece OF tin doubled over it.
with a wire fastened around it, making 1t
perfectly secure. Mcdaniel was anxious
10 know what wss in the jug, so taking bis
heel screw off bis plow he twisted off the
wire. This enabled him to take out the
cork. He then placed the Jug on a stump,
and, applying bis lips, tasted the best
brandy he had ever sampled. so capu'
waited was he that he drank several times
and at last, the liquor overcoming him, he
slipped down as eep at the foot OF the
stump. Failing to come home TO diHner,
his mother went to the fed after him as he
was about waking up. Together they gave
the Jug another examination when Mrs.
MCDaniel's attention was attracted to Its
great weight. AB examination showed the
presence Of $40 five dollar gold pieces
naking total Of f9.jOO. The mystery
was cleared up in singular manner. Nc
Dsniel's grandfather was captain IN the
Florida war. It was known that he was
wesltby before he left home. On news OF
his death in one of the battles with the
Indians his heirs could find no trace OF
his money. The fact that years after his
only grandson and heir should have found
his fortune in singular incident. The
fading of this jug leads to the hope that
there NAV be others, and the ploTing OF
that field is watched with interest.

A HUMAN PUZZLE.
A Veteran Whose Heart Beats Only
THenIy.six Times in q Minute.

TWenIy-six Times in Minute.
ROCHESTER, March 16.-In a village near
this city resides a gentleman forty.fiye
years ofage-a skilful physician and sur
geon and prominent citizen, who is in
the remarkable physiological condition OF
having but twenty.six pulsations OF the
heart per minute, and yet is able to attend
% ,rdinary business. In ahealthy male
person of nature years the contractlons OF
The heart are from sixty to eighty per
minute probably averaging about sixty
five.
III the late war the gentleman was sur
peon and at the conclusion OF his service
returned to his native town and entered
upon the practice of his profession, but
wa. soon obliged TO give it up on account
of i'll health. While in the army he was
sfihcttd somewhat with dyspepsia. 1t was
then discovered that the number OF the
pulsatons Of his heart we're steadily de-
crtasipg, aud in the spring of 1882 num-
bered but thirty. eight per minute and have
since diminished until they now number
but twenty six.
There is but one instance recorded where
the contractions of the heart per minute
were limited to the number last named
and the patient survived. Yet so far as out
ward appt arances indicate there are many
years OF life yet for the gentleman whose
heart tbrobs only once when ordinari ly it
should beat three times. As conseq hence
of d, ficient circulation his hands and feet
are uniformly cold. He is subject to faint
spells which sometimes can be averted, bat

strikes the floor or ground consciousness

AFTER MANY YEARS
The Mystery Surrounding a Mur-
der Cleared Away.
aMAN STRICKEN WITH DEATH
Makes Known for the First Time the Un-
natural Deed of His Mother-Brutal
Murder in Canada -
Other Crimes.

DAYTON, O., March l6.-On January IL
1867, Christine Kett, pretty girl OF eight
cen years, was murdered in her home on
Oak street and no clue was ever discovered
to the murderer until yesterday, when Der
brother made death-bed confession that
her own mother had committed the deed.
A number OF parties had been suspected
but no clue had ever pointed in this direc.
ton. The disclosure causes profound
sensation. As related by the son, his
mother on her desth-bed made confession
of her guilt. The murdered girl had gone
away to call on lady friend, and return
ing home an hour late her mother, in tit
of passion, struck her with an axe'handle'
crushing her skull. Appalled, at her crime
she smeared the dead girls face with gun
powder, and afterwards deported her
self in such a manner as to entirely
elude detection. Mental torture drove
her from the scene of her crime and she
roamed through the Western cities and
finally died here several years ago. She
was sixty four years old at her death, and
all of the family are dead but the son, who
makes this dying confession.

Hiding Place Of q Deiaulting Bank

His Nose for News Leads Him 10 the
Hiding Place Of q Deiaulting Bank
Teller.
ST.. LOUIS, March 16-A brilliant scoop
wGs accomplished yesterday by a reporter
named w. f. Hicks, through whose detect
i've ability the defsulting bank teller Diet
erichs, OF the Laclade Bank, was brought
from his hiding place. Dieterichs robbed
the bank during last February OF $3O,0OO
disappearing February 27th, and leaving
word behind him that he had gone to Hot
Springs, Ark, for rheumatism. The bank
and the Fidelity Company, OF New
York City, who were on the young mans
bonds, had been engaged in supsrin-
tending a hunt for the fugitive since the
80 inst, and mad spent considerable sum
Of money with prospect in view OF spend
ing lot more without discovering any
trace of the fugitive. The fact of the rob-
berry was published IN the morning papers
yesterday, and Hicks, who was one OF the
reporters sent by his paper to work up the
case, decided to work at first on the theory
that the man had not left the city at all.
He visited the vicinity OF Dieterich's resi-
dence. and by dint OF questioning the
neighbors and then the servant girls, dis
covered that the man had given up house
keeping only few weeks ago and gone to
live with his brother on q fat 10 franklin
avenue, near by, and finally one Of the
servants told him that he was living there
still. =.
The bank authorities were informed OF
the reporters success and at once proceed
ed to swear out warrant against Dietrichs,
who was found hidden in his brothers
house. He Was arrested and taken tc the
Four Cou.ts.

TILDEN AND BLAINE.
The Choice OF Their Respective Parties
I'm the d 6lOriOus Climate.

New YoRK, March 16.-J, B. Metcalfe, OF
San Francisco, q delegate from California
to the Cincinnati Democratic Convention
Of 1880, said to-day: California appears to
stand now Just about where she did four
years ago, so far as the leading candidates
are concerned.
"Tilden is unquestionably first choice on
one side, and Blaine on the other. Out ide
of these two every thing Is at sea-" ANY
special campaign Interest," We'll, no.
When our wine and wool are protected the
State has nothing further to ask, as we
have no manufactures, and outside OF
these two articles, the general Drift
is for reducing the revenue, but
the tariff will not figure to any
great extent out our way. We are all nov
excited over another railroad war between
the Legislature and the corporations. TIE
Legislature before adjouruing passed a.law
compelling the payment OF taxes to the
State, but there was some loophole through
which the roads tried to crawl, aud pro
posed q compromise to the Attorney -GeuN
eral, which be refused to accept on any
bssis but the payment of arrears to the
State. In this state OF affairs Governor
Stoneman has called the Legislature to.
gether in special session to make law
that will hold water. On all dealings with
the railroads the State is sleeping volcano
and always votes against the corporations.
While this present question is not politi-
cal, no doubt the Democratic party in
power will reap certain benefits at the polls
for having carried on such vigorous
fight"
