buggy, having missed the up train.
When near the Mound House it be-

SACJRDAY NIGHTS SHOOT
ING.

Two Men Kit BY the Same Isall
! On Saturday night, just before
the Virginia train left from thu
circus, shot fred-whether acct
IDENTIFY or intentionally no one
seems to known George Bryson''
Saloon wounded John Cupps, :
blacksmith in one of the mills from
Empire, in the leg and then
entered the stomach Of Viii.
liam Brennan of Virgins
| City. The latter wound is consid.
cred fatal. Relative to the shoot
ing there are various versions, but
the one which seems to be gener-
ally accepted ~ correct, is as fol
lows: Several men were drinking 1t
Bryson's saloon, when John Cups
went behind the bar and poured
out some bitters. The bartender
just then came up from the cellar
and remarked that if he Wanted
anything he could call for it and be
waited on. Some words passed,
Cupps saying he knew the prepri-
etors of the place and paid for all
he got. Curly Hogan took the
barkeeper's part saying that he
would not see him abused. just
then a pistol went off and Cupps,
springing in the air,said that he was
shot and would give 800 if any
body would show him the man who
fred. No one responded, and for
some time it seemed as if no one
knew. 1t was friendly claimed that
Curly Hogan's pistol had fallen out
Of his pocket and was accidently
discharged. Cupps was not badly
hurt and boarded the train. When
the train was near Empire VIM,
Brennan, who was once the Re-
corder Of Storey county, remarked
to some of the passengers that he
believed he was shot. He had ter
rible pains in his stomach, and an
examination showed the marks of a
bullet hole in his clothes and
further investigation showed one
on his body. He said he felt
slight wtinge in his side when the
shot was fired, but it was so slight
that he gave it no further attention
and got on the train. By the time
he reached Gold Hill where he was
taken off the train; he was suffering
terribly, and on Sunday inflama-
ton set in. The physicians, who
were called from Virginia City,
pronounced the case hopeless. On
Sunday nights train warrants came
down to Sheriff Swift for the ar
rest Of Hogan, but he was not to be
found in the city, having gone to
Reno. It is claimed that the shot
came from Hogsn's pistol. His
friends claim that it fell from his
pocket and was discharged when it
struck the floor. Hogan was form
erly a County Commissioner of
Ormsby. At last accounts Bren-
nan was still alive.

some Solid Men Who Believe
In 1t.

Some Solid Men Who Believe
For some weeks past msI
named Nora has been developing +:
mine on the west slope of Noun
Davidson, and all of the work goe'
on under what is told by a divinins
rod. The mine is owned by Mr.
Kirman, of the firm of Kirman &
Hickey, and he has the most i'm.
plicit confidence in the powers Of
| the rod, or rather some electrical
apparatus that Nora wears in his
hat. The Chronicle has this to say
of Nora: f's
All the fools are not dead yet"
at least there. is one left in this
neighborhood. A crank is tumble
ing around the West side Of Mount
Davidson with contrivance which
he claims will accurately denote the
location and extent Of ore bodies, no
matter how deep under ground they
may be. He is something ike Al
Peck, who claimed that his "divin-
ing rod" was SO sensitive that he
could trace a dime in the dark, and
SO powerful that he couldn't drag it
past q jewelers. window. He once
asserted that he was riding along
the road in Tnolumne county when
the stage came to a standstill, owing,
he said, to the great affinity his ma
chine had for 4 pocket" located
somewhere along the road. The
attraction was so strong that he wss
compelled to alight and let the
coach go off without him. He was
rapidly drawn up the site Of the
hill and down into a prospect hole,
where he was compelled to abandon
his witch-rod or remain with it and
starve. There used to be consider
able talk here about Peck and his
fumblemeter, but they have Of late
years been lost sight of. No man
except he was struck with q mush-
paddle in his early youth has any
faith in such truck.
Mr.. Kirman was induced to give
Nora a trial upon the representa-
tions made by men in San Fran
cisco. He took Nora, blindfolded,
over ledge that had recently been
discovered. There was a foot of
snow on the ground and yet the in
slant Nora got over the ledge he
stopped short and in a few min
utes told the width correctly. He
was then led over the ledge at diff
ferent points several times still
blind-folded, and did not fail in
single instance to tell just where it
was and its width. The mine has
since been developed under his d.
rections and in all instances, where
he has claimed there were lodges
or pockets, the ore has been found.
The pocket in the Harris mine,
from which $4,000 was taken, was
located by Mr.. Nora. Mr.. Hickey
for a long time laughed at the idea,
but was finally so thoroughly con-
WINGED that he now considers it the
only sure way to mine. He con-
siders it founded on scientific
principles. The apparatus is not
a rod" but a battery charged with
electricity, which Mr.. Nora wears
on his hat. The parties who en-
ploy him express themselves as
perfectly satisfied with the results,
and Kirman will put up his coin
on the proposition every time.
