"Its an III Wind that Blows Nobody
Good


DEN1ye, December 21st.-The present
freight war is resulting in a general COM
slercial boom for this Territory and is
having very perceptive effect on
the Mexican trade, as Mexican mer-
chants can do as well here or at El
Paso, as they can San Francisco or
Kansas City. Mining machinery. agri-
cultural implements and such things are
coming in with wonderful prodigality, and
the mining interests are receiving a new
impetus. Merchants are everywhere talk
ing advantage of the cut in rates by stock
ing up their stores, for they are getting the
benefit of from 81 to 81 per hundred on
everything consumed. Sales are increasing
correspondingly,c consequently money is get
ting more plentiful. The great saving can
be seen in the fact that the merchant now
pays his freight on a carload OF goods with
S75 or $100 where ii used to be from $500
to $500

Saved from Sacrifice.

Saved from Sacrifice.
VICTORIA, December 21st.-The prevail
ing trade depression is equally felt in this
city.
The forced sale of corporation property
at the instance of the Sheriff, in satisfaction
of a judgment claim of SS7, had just COM
menced yesterday morning, when citizen
called upon all persons not to bid and sac
rifice valuable city property. The senti-
ment was heartily cheered, and the sale
stopped, several citizens putting up suifi-
cient money to satisfy the judgment and
relieve the property in addition to indem-
nifying the Sheriff from loss on an action
at law from his acceptance of the PROPOSE
ton. The Mayor, who refused to sign a
check for the payment, and who had been
the cause of the proceeding. entered his pri-
vate office, but was Immediately elected.

somewhat noted Mayfield mystery has
from San Jose to-day with Shrofer, who
had been arrested in that city on warrant

he remembered nothing until he found
himself sitting in the midst of the wreck
Of the buggy at the bottom of the canyon.

Commendab1e Custom.

GRASS VALLEY, December 21st.-Friday
was the last day of school before the Christ
mas holidays in the public schools at this
place, and it was observed by the scholars
as their second annual day set aside by
them as donation day for the benefit of
scholars were voluntary, and consisted
mostly of potato and stick of wood,
though they were not limited to any guam
tity, and many went to the school loaded
As there are something over 100 scholars
in this district, it will be seen that the
amount contributed amounted to a good
deal. Fridays result had not been ascer-
tanned yet, but it is thought to exceed that
of last year, when the contributions amount
ed to about 5000 pounds of potatoes and
ten cords of four-foot wood. Potatoes are
worth two cents a pound, and the wood is
worth S6 90 cord, so the net result to the
Relief Society is about S125

Anothor Statement in Regard 20 ;ao
Killing of.Kelly in Lawrence
County.

While in Monticello a .hor. time
since we we're assured BY reliable
gentleman who had heard all 81 the
testimony in the case, tina: the re
pot prev lousy published in lEE
LEADER regarding the killing o!
Kelly in Lawrence, was erroneous.
and calculated to place deputy
Sherif5 Garrett and Guess ani Mr.
Smith, who took part in this I'M
fortunate affair, in n decidedly
wrong light. He further promised
to furnish US n correct statement for
publication, but rs he has not thus
far done so, We reproduce the follow
ing from a correspondent Of the
Magnolia Gazette, which concurs
substantially with the verbal state
ment made by our Monticello friend:
AS there have been many false
reports about the killing of John
Kelly, at II. c. Smiths, nine miles
south OF Monticello, send You a
correct statement of the affair.
Smith had q warrant issued for the
arrest of Kelly on account of q Sian
derous note posted on the public
road about him. Deputies Garrett
and Guess, of Monticello, met Kelly
one and one-halt miles from Smiths =,
in n wagon that was going To Smith :
for corn. They presentld the war.
rant aud demanded surrender.
Kelly said. DIN the warrant"
he would not walk to town like a
Negro it they would go with him,
he would give bond, and they went
to smiths. Garrett went to Smith 8
and called on smith, to assist them
in diSarming Kelly. Smith refused,
as he had the warrant issued tor
him. Garrett then asked him to 90
out and hear what lie said. Smith
said that if it would do any good he
would go with him. AS they walk
ed out to the wagon. Kelly
jumped out Of the wagOn-backing--
in the public road. The officers told
Kelly if he would give bond, they
could get the papers; but Kelly
wanted them to 60 to Ballard = where
he was stopping. They told him to
give up his weapons before they
went any further. Kelly refused,
giving back. They followed after
him, trying to get him to surrender
and go with them, assuring him that
he would not be hurt. Smith Sam
tered to the side Of the path. Kelly
jumped over into the path ahead of
Saith. with pistol cooked. pre-
scented at him and said "Stop You
s. Of n b, OF | will kill you.
Smith raised his hands and said:
Don't shoot me, for am not armed
let me get my gun Smith ran
into the house and got hie gun, and
walked out, looking In the direction
where he left Kelly; bat he kelly
I had got back behind the wagon that
he had left. SWith was about five
feet from his gallery Kelly fret on
him over the wagon, iuflcting flesh
wound on left side, on the hip. Smith
turned to the wagon as he raised his
gun, Kelly fred second time, through
his coat. Saith sprinkied his legs
under the wagon with small shot;
Garrett fired the same time. Kelly
ran around the wagon to shoot Smith
again, but Smith fired load of buck
shot into his breast, neck and mouth
Kelly fell and died that night. Kelly
claimed to be from Texas. Had been
here seven months. No one knew
his business. A note was found in
his possession, signed u. 7. Right

lowing items.
Mr.. Jno. r, Matthews, an old
citizen of this county, died after a
protracted illness Of long duration,
last Saturday evening. Ills remains
were placed in vault built next to
that of his son, the late j. r. Mat
thews, at the family residence.
A very sad accident occurred last
Wednesday in which the little a
year old son Of Mr.. Fl. J. Brainard
living miles from here lost his
life. 1t seems that the little boy
was playing near a pot of boil
ing water which was to be used
for washing purposes. He accident
ally fell into it and was scalded to
death.
Mr.. lack Remhert died at his
home, seven miles from here last
