In the criminal branch of the United
States Circuit Court, Captain Joshua
Slocum, the master Of the American
schooner Northern Light was called up
for sentence for unlawfully imprisoning
the first mate, Henry A. Slater, on the
voyage of the vessel from South Africa to
this port.
In the course Of his remarks on pass
ing sentence Judge Benedict said that
the jury had found Slocum not guilty Of
the assault, and although they had re-
turned a verdict Of guilty of unlawful
imprisonment, it was, they said. because
of the protracted imprisonment Of fifty
three days, and not that they deemed
Imprisonment altogether unnecessary.
Taking into consideration this finding,
and also, the Judge said, the fact that he
had received from several shipping mer-
chants information that the prisoner was
to their knowledge generally humane
captain, and also that this testimony of
the merchants had been confirmed by an
investigation by the Shipping Commits
sioner. he should not intlict the full pen
atty of 81 900, but would sentence him
to pay $500, and to be imprisoned until

AT the County Conventions Of the Hum
boldt and Elko Democrats, resolutions
were passed commencing Congressman
Cassidy, by the former as follows:
Resolved, That we congratulate the peo-
pie of Nevada in having a true and tried
Representative in Congress-Hon. George
W. Cassidy-whose industry, capacity and
sterling worth have endeared him to his
constituents, regardless Of party, and we
hereby pledge to him an increased ma.
jority at the ensuing election.
And by the latter as follows:
Resolved, That we point with pride to
the record Of Hon. George W. Cassidy
during the past four years. and that We
recognize in him the most efficient Repre-
sentative that has ever occupied a seat in
the popular branch Of Congress from this
State. His faithful services entitle him to
reelection by an increased majority over
those he has heretofore received.

But Not His Associates.

The Democratic County Convention Of
Humboldt. on Monday adopted the follow

Resolved, That while we accord to Hon.
J. P. Jones, and the four other Republic
can United States Senators, all the praise
for cutting loose from their party and
Joining hands with the Democrats in re-
monetizing silver, we denounce the Ma
tional Republican party and its standard
bearer, James G.. Blaine, who opposed and
voted against the Silver bill, as enemies Of
our leading industry, and unworthy of the
confidence or support of any class of our
citizens, they having united with England
and English capitalists to depreciate the
value and to curtail the circulation of the
silver dollar by all the arts known to the
greedy, gold-standard cormorants. We,
therefore, appeal TO all who have the well
fare of our State at heart to stand by the
party who stood by it on this vital issue,
as the silver dollar will never be accorded
it's true position alongside of gold-where
the fathers of the Republic and the Con-
stitution of the United States placed it,
and where the Democratic party left it
until the Democrats shall again control
both branches of Congress, the offices of
Secretary of the Treasury and OF the
President.

Stafford.

From Col. Tyson we get the following
notes Of interest from the mining locality
named above:
The Stafford estate is now in a fair way
towards settlement, and it is expected that
work will soon be resumed on the Onon-
daga mine by the company, the property
being owned by George O'Briter one
fourth, John ~Seyenoaks and John E.
Kelly one-fourth, and the Stafford heirs
one-half. The mine ia in fine condition
for the production of ore. Further devel-
opments will be pushed with energy to de-
termine the full extent Of ore in the diff
ferent veins. At present a shaft has been
sunk TO the depth Of 240 feet and 9 tunnel
to connect with the bottom of the shaft
has been run in about $50 feet, the ore
from the tunnel level upward to be
delivered through the tunnel. At the
time work was suspended there was good
ore in abundance at every point developed
in the mine.
The Shields mine, owned now by the Gen.
Shields Mining Company, the Directors
of which are prominent mining men OF
San Francisco, consists of the ordinary
location 1900 by 600 feet and a tunnel
right 5000 feet in length, being designed
to tap all the ore bodies in the main
mineral belt of Stafford District. One
tunnel is being run on the vein in the
mine and the tunnel on the tunnel right is
being pushed with vigor, both works being
lone by contract at present. Owing to
the inclemency Of the weather not much
ore has been sacked, and it has accumu-
lated in considerable quantity on the
dump.
1t is probable that the Onondaga Com
pany well erect teaching works on the
Humboldt river near Gerald for the re-
duction of their own ore, a large proper
ton OF which could not be probably
shipped, although capable of yielding
great profit at home.
On the whole, Stafford District is in
good trim and has q bright prospect for
the near future.

LANCASTER, Pa, Oct. 14.-Lawrence L.
Conley of Philadelphia, aged Is, this
evening shot Mamie Benson. aged IA, in
this city. The shot fred at the girl made
a painful, but not fatal wound. Conley
was some time ago employed in a Lancas-
ter watch factory, where the girl also was
employed. He fell in love with her and
left Lancaster early in June and went to
Philadelphia. He persisted in sending
the girl protestations of his affection; also,
letters threatening to kill her if she re-
fused to receive his attentions. He re-
turned to Lancaster 10 days ago, and
meeting the girl on the street, shot her
and then himself.
