Willie apragae Killed.

The Carson Appealof yesterday says:
Last evenings local train to Virginia
city carried with it William Sprague.
a young man about twenty-opc years
of age, who had just secured position
Of brakeman on the road. At the
Mound House the conductor missed
him and notice was given to the down
train that he had fallen off. A watch
was accordingly kept ahead and in
rounding the curve near the Brunswick
mill the lookout saw the body on The
track. The signalto iown'breaks was
given, but the train could net be
brought to standstill until it was
partly over the body. TIE wheels did
not touch it, however, as it was lying
between the rails. The conductor and
one of the postal clerks crswled under
the train and lifted the body out. The
wheels of the up train passed over the
head and shoulders and crushed them
shapeless, also breaking the legs.
The body was brought to the city and
placed in the haggage-room. A large
crowd soon collected as the deceased
was well known in this city. and pres.
emily one Of his sisters, who had just
heard the news, came toward the depot
shrieking. 1t was decided that none
of his relatives be allowed to see the
remains, and the lady was taken home
IN carriage almost 10y force. He
leaves mother, almost dependent
upon him for support. His sisters ~re

and Miss Louise Sprague. who isteach-

younger sister and two younger
brothers. The deceased was a general
favorite in Carson and had.boen known
here from his boyhood Under what
circumstances he fell from the train is

A PrOnssinx career Closed.

The many friends-of F. W, Dunn,
of Battle Mountain, the Superintendent
of the Nevada Central, will be grieved
to learn that he stood the trip home to
Illinois very badly and that the doctors
say lie cannot live long. He had a
sinking spell on the road, and was
given a days rest at Evanston. He
was insepsible and the pulse was
almost insensible for hours. His
trouble seems to be in the brain, az he
suffers intense pain in the head. Mr..
Dunn has led life of bard intellectual
labor since his boyhood, such as dis
patching trains and managing rail
roads, and his constitution has given
way under it. His wife has gone East
with him. She has the sincere sympa-
thy of hundreds of Nevada friends.

Bodle F'ree Press, October %: The
trouble at Mill Creek-past, present
and prospective-is sti!lthe principal
topic of conversation. Yesterday viii
son. Lee, Jardine and others concerned
in the late fracas at Lundy were taken
by the officers to Bridgeport for safe
keeping. For the past two or three
nights there has been mysterious
congregation Of mounted and lit is
supposeD armed men in Mill Creek
Canon below Lundy. Yesterday sew.
eral prominent Lundy persons received
notice that their presence could be dis
penscd with after twenty. hours
had elapsed. Some SO notified came
into Bodie today. Others stayed in
Lundy. Rumors as to what will be
done by one party are offset by rumors
of what the other parties will not allow
to be done. Nothing definite can be
learned AT this distance from the scene
of action; but the opinion very gener.
orally prevails here that more blood
will be shed in Mill Creek, and that
pretty soon.
ONE OF THE WOUNDED.
Deputy Sheriff William Callihan,
who was shot and badly wounded ri
Lundy last Saturday night, was
brought to Bodie Monday for medical
treatment. He is under the care of
DR.. Rogers at the County Hospital.
Owing 10 the peculiar character of the
wound it was found necessary to send
for an apparatus known as \ double
incline plane. 1t is expected 10 arrive
from San Francisco tomorrow. With
its aid DR.. Rogers hopes TO save Cali.

friends who hope that the doctor will
succeed in doing so.

St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1884-06-14

The case of Mr.. and Mrs. Weldon,
of England, is attracting good deal
of attention throughout the civilized
world. The lady has beautiful voice.
and was an ornament to society before
she married; but she has an unhappy
temper, q shrewish tongue and an in
ordinate delight in litigation. She has
plenty of money, and can indulge in the
luxury of going to law. Her husband
found living with her uncomfortable, SO
he left her. He offered her every in
ducement to live alone. She was to
have house and money to live on COM
fortably; but that was not enough.
She insisted upon her rights to her hus-
band, and she went to law to make him
live with her. The court sustained
her right. though admitting that the
law was absurd. The court, however,
suspended any punishment on Mr..
Weldon, pending an appeal to a higher
court. The lady was so eager to get
decision in her favor that she applied
to the Justices of Appeal to take the
case out of its regular order, which they
refused to do. 1t seems. however. that
it really is the law of England that
husband or wife can be punished for
not living with a married partner who
is hateful to them. At last accounts
law had been proposed in Parliament
to rectify this state of things.-Demo-
rest sM0nthly.

A Stockholders Little Game.

Stockholders are sometimes men OF
considerable resource. 1t Is said on
the Stock Exchange that one day last
month firm received q letter from 4
country gentleman, one of their Gus
toners, announcing that he was coming
up to town that day, and would call
upon them and take away a parcel of
valuable securities which were lying on
their hands. In the afternoon the
customer arrived. After the usual
greeting, said one partner to the other:
BLANK. will you lend me your key Of
this sac. to get out this gentleman s
securities? l broke mine yesterday
Il never had a key to that safe." re-
piled the junior partner. Hadn't yous
I thought YOU had. Well, l suppose
there is nothing for it but to send for a
couple of smiths and hare it broken
open" But here the good-natured
customer interposed. The safe was a
great, massive affair. as affiuent-looking
As the Bank of England. '.Don't have
it broken open," he said. "You can
send me the securities; dare say they
will travel quite 81 ely"
The partners thanked the considerate
gentleman. and the subject dropped.
Before he left the Office the senior part
ncr invited his customer to dine with
him at his club that evening. The in
vitation was accepted; and in the course
of the meal the guest said: .Now you
have often promised to run down and
see my place, and you've never done it.
Will you come on Saturday. "Yes, l
WILL" answered the stock-broker; land
l can bring those securities of yours
with me. That will be safer than
sending them by the rail or by post. :"
..All right, that will do nicely" But
before the Saturday arrived the stock
broker, with the securities in his port
manteau, had departed. like the Magi.
another Whitehall Rerieu.
