Respect of Rough and UncOuth Men
tn the west for h Gentier Sex.
In the early days of California the men
who gathered in the mining camps in the
gulches or among the mountains seldom
saw a woman's face. They grew careless OF
their own appearance; left hair as well as
beard to g%row-hair which never saw a
brush or %comb-till they came to look like
wild men Of the woods; yet beneath I'M
kempt locks, and under the shaggy breast
and tattered garments. there lay in the
heart Of every man q memory Of some farm
house far away, and OF a mother or sister
for whose dear sake he reverenced the form
Of woman az sacred. Her approach COM
msnded every token OF respect. One who
had lived among the miners said: III
| they were driving g heavy team on q dusty
| road, and met a woman riding the other
way, they would turn to the right or left to
give her the side Of the road where the dust
would not blow upon her." And II per-
/ chance at long intervals there appeared in
| the camp the face OF q woman, every moth
er's son Of them stood one side on the
mountain trail to let her pass, and pulled
of his miners cap, and not seldom the
tears stole into his eyes at thought of the
| old folks at home; OF the mother who sat
in the chimney-corner, and who. as the
winds blew and the rains fell, peered out
| into the darkness, and sighed as she asked,
Where is my wandering boy tonight"
1t would not have been safe for any one to
whisper q disrespectful word as that face
passed by. II some vulgar fellow ventured
a coarse remark, the eyes OF others flashed.
but they bit their lips and were silent till
she was out OF sight, and then, said our in
formant, that fellow had got to take q
lickingi" 1t seemed rs il every miner felt
that his own mother or sister was insulted
by q sheer at one Of her sex. and they an
swered the insult with heavy blows till the
coward was kicked and cuffed out of camp.

a Probably Final Settlement of
Acknowledgement Litigation.

a Final Settlement OF
Acknowledgement Litigation.
Sunday morning about IL o'clock the
jury in the Albion. Richmond suitfor dam
ages brought in q unanimous verdict for
the plaintiff, the Albion, for SIS, $50. 1t
seems that they were not much troubled In
getting at this decision, as they rescued
their verdict on the ssconl ballot. The
result is almost q complete victory for the
Richmond. Itsdmitted having taken 2. 100
tons OF ore from the disputed ground, and
its estimate of the value Of the same at the
furnace was 81 per ton-which makes
SS,400. The jury, believing that the Rich
mond acted In good faith in extracting the
ore from the disputed ground, assessed the
same TO it at the net, instead Of the gross,
value; and, also, accepting the estimate Of
ore testified to by the witnesses for the
Richmond, the jury seem 10 have agreed
upon the minimum quantity. We are not
informed Is 70 the technical status of the
case, now, except that the nominal damages
granted the Albion will not be paid by the
Richmond until the question of the title to
the disputed ground shall have been deter
mined by the Supreme Court Of the United
States, before which tribunal that issue
was brought on appeal from the Supreme
Court Of Nevada. Whether 1t will have to
pay or 10 receive damages remains to be
seen. The news OF the verdict went rapidly
through town. and it was the engrossing
topic everywhere for the rest Of the Lords
day and all Of yesterday, too. Those i'm
mediately interested in the result we're
greatly delighted, and went about very
literally treating aud otherwise manifest
ing their satisfaction. Several persons
who felt particularly happy over the news
set of a bomb or two to emphasize the
fact. Our people seemed very generally
pleased with the judgment arrived at by
the jury, thinking it equitable, and, also,
for the best interest Of the town that the
anti Richmond litigation was thereby
ended. Mr.. Probert. Manager Of the
Richmond Company, and Mr.. Wren, lead
ing counsel for the Richmond, we're con
graduated on every hand over the crafty
ing outcome. They responded to these
kind expressions in the prevailing style Of
the country. and "set 'em up" all along
the line until everybody was in the best of
humor with the Richmond.

PORTLAND, Or, July 21.-The reports
from Eugene, to-day, show that the failure
Of Lurch Bros, general merchandise

one Of the most d~isreputable in the history
OF the State. Aaron Lurch, senior part
ner, ID in Jail on two charges OF forgery.
Since the attachment last Thursday, 1t
developed that Lurch has duplicated
nearly every note which he held against
the farmers, and in one instance has come
TO light a note Of ST. 900, and hypothecsted
them all, each in different towns In the
valley. Another instance 10 OF an $500
note being duplicated five times. Prob
ably 100 farmers are losers in amounts
varying from 500 TO $4,000. Lurch was
clerk Of the school district, without bonds,
and its funds are also involved in the fall
ure. The liabilities will not be much less
than $50 900, while it is believed the
assets will be under $4,000. One OF the
entanglements is, that it will be impossible
to tell which are forged and which are
genuine signatures, SO duplicated are the
notes. and 30 c~leverly are the names i'm

Thirtsen Horse Thieves Hanged.
SALT LAKE, July 21.-News comes from

thieves we're captured and hanged in the
vicinity Of Rocky Point a few days ago.
The hanging was done by a regular organ
lied gang of cowboys, who set out to round
up the thieves hat infest that section, and
they are doing their work in good shape.
They secured 80 stolen horses from a quin-
tette OF outlaws. and then made short work
of them by hanging the lot to the
nearest tree in the region between lower
Judith aud Musselshell. Within the last
three weeks IS horse thieves have been
lynched and it is probable the end is not
yet. The campaign was opened by killing
two thieves at Musselshell, and was fol-
lowed by the dispatch Of two half-breeds
at Claggett. Then one was hanged on
Arwell Greek, and another near Fort Mag
ginuis. Two more were lynched at Lewiston
on the 4th and the big haul at Rocky Point
is the latest, making in all Is.
