The Two Went Harmonic.

Says the Phoebe Record There
is one great inconvenience that the
ladies of Phoebe experience while
INDUCING in the recreation of roller
skating. The gliding around on
wheels and the chewing of gum. at
the same time, does not harmonic.
The stroke of the skate is too long
for a chew on gum, or a chew on
gum is too short for the stroke of
the skate, and while INDUCING in
both at the same time, and endeav-
oring to keep time with both Jaws
and feet, they either dislocate a
jaw, or else their feet become so
entagled that they fall and mop up
the whiting off the floor. If some
good samaritan will contrive in
some way to bring in harmony the
stroke of the skate and the chew
of the gum. the Record ventures to
state that they will receive the fer
vent prayers Of the lady skaters for
their welfare,

lion assault. The names of the
wounded men by the time they get
down to Carson are changed every
lday. The latest name is Scossa,
John and Aleck. A man named
Corbeel kept the toll gate. Vieu,
the Italian robber, rose in the
night and went to where Corbeel
kept some tools and made the
assault.
Scossa gives the following YER
sion of the affair:
Gas 1 was sleeping l heard two
clicks as if you would strike two
hammers together, and at the same
moment I received blow on my
head; / also perceived that Aleck,
my cousin was being hit. The
blows fell heavy and fast on both
of US. l managed to get on my
feet and burst out the window next
to the road and jumped through it
as fast as my STRENGTH allowed NE.
When on the outside | heard my
cousin cry help, help terrible

Aleck was graphing with the would

to the other side of Monitor Greek
and took to the mountains; | was
barefonted and without hat. The
wounds in my head we're bleeding
profusely. | was making my way
toward Monitor; my feet were
being cut up by the sharp rocks
and brush, could not 90 any fur
ther. l pulled off my drawers and
tore them in two, and tied them
around my already lacerated feet
and in that way continued climb
ing ,long the mountain side until [
reached Mr.. Larson's house in
Monitor. l did not dare to 90 into
the road for fear the fend would
find me"
Aleck Scossa escaped through
the open window also and climbed
up the bluff back of the stable
from which place he could see the
front Of the house and after (he
says) [ got over being dazed l saw
a man come out of the house lock
up and down the road and into
the stable, then went down the
road and across the bridge in the
same direction where John Scossa
had gone a few minutes before.
Corbeers statement is that he
heard unusual noise in the bar
room and got up out of his bed and
met Vieu in the door between the
two rooms who dealt him a blow
on the head which felled him
(CorbeeD to the floor. "This' says
Corbeel is about all I know,
except that l found myself lying
on the floor. [ crawled around
to where there was some Sater
and managed to wash some Of the
blood out of my eyes. [ heard
some one outside of the house who
| found to be Aleck Scossa who
had come down from the bluff
and provided himself with a pistol
which had been left in the jockey
box of the wagon the dav before"
The two then sat by the broken
window the balance of the night
watching out for the fellow until
daylight.
