The Red Eagle had not delivered an
Grafton for several weeks, SO on last Sat.
urday evening he made his appearance
on the porch of the Nevada Hotel.
OF course he had considerable to talk
about after having such long rest,
and during the difibulation OF his bosom
to his hearers he sailed in rough. shod.
He gave the list Of names of those who
had ordered matrimonial medicine, wind
ing up with the RECORD man. Now, II
we should happen to join the unfortu.
mates, we feel positive that we could do
much better than the Red Eagle in either
running boarding house or attending to
the duties Of q married man. For the
past twenty years the old Red Eagle has
lived in wedlock, and not even one little
squaller has this old bird been able to
produce. He is neither no good to him
self or country.
This week we come forward somewhat
groggy, and Notwithstanding being
slightly dis6gured, nevertheless smilingly'
but still in the ring. met with quite
a serious accident during the week.
While at work developing my muscles,
hit the pillow such . terrible blow, and
sent it with such immense force against
the side of tho wall, that it rebounded
and hit me fair on my proboscis, and
sent me to grass. causing the claret to
Cow therefrom like the water in the
ditch, inundating the room with gore.
And my hustle. my poor hustle. was all
knocked out of shape by the fall.

Alabama. writes to learn Of the where.
abouts of his brother. James s. Stock
dale. who was last heard from while in
Phoebe. His mother has died, and the
estate of his father has not been settled
since his death. 1t il necessary to hear
from Jim for the settlement of the estate.
II any person know where Jim Is they
| will confer favor on his relations by in.
forming them of the fact. Jim Stock.

The only excitable event occurring in
Phoebe during the week. was a squaw
fight. Our red sisters fought nobly. pull.
ling hair and scratching face, like thei.
white sisters. Jealousy was the cause
Of it. Surely the copper-colored race are
becoming civilized. The squaws have
but one more step to take to reach this
exalted position-that of talking scandal
against their own sex.
CHALLKSoED.-Ac challenge from a ma
tive of the foreign land of New Jersey.
now residing at Bristol. was sent to an
Italian Count, who resides in the same
city. The Count declined to meet the
New jersey man. The royal blood that
flowed through his veins would not per.
NIT him to combat with an individual
who was inferior to an organ-grinder.
The Reflex reports parties interested,
At Ward. received encouraging news from
old Patterson District. There have beer
several persons in Phoebe from that vi
einity lately, but they appear not Il
have learned anything in regard to tn.
late developments. It is to be hoped
that the reports on the outside are al
facts.
STAMPEDE GAP has . number of fin,
prospects. with little or nothing done Oh
them, the surface ground being merely
scratched. A little money invested il
several of these claims is pretty certain
to pay the investor ten.fold. 1t is /,
good field to chance few dollars in, b,
those who have it to spare.

The cry used to be here, more Aux
ing ore for smelling" but it looks nov
that it is mostly all smelling ore. Tn
mines at Highland are yielding larg
quantities of ore that goes from $50 +
500. Highland. at the present time, j

WHAT vast amount OF truth there
in the saying, Misery loves company.
Just as soon as an innocent young fellow
makes misstep and gets married, all tn
poor unfortunate married men send hin
congratulations. That's always the wa,
of it.
