THE KILLING OF DEAN.

jenkins, the man who shot and
killed Dean while the former was
crying to drive him off land which
belonged to the United States Gov
eminent, has been acquitted by a
Jury at Eureka. The Sentinel
has the following regarding the in
teresting case:
During the past week our town
has witnessed one of the most in
teresting and most exciting trials
that has come up in the court Of
this district in many years-the
killing of Joe Dean by William
jenkins. Dean was man brim-
full of enterprise and energy. He
possessed many adm irabie craft "f
character, but he nevertheless, like
most men, had his serious faults
In some respects he was man Of
extremes. and II is noticeab that
those friendly to his memory are
strongly so, while those that have
but little good to say of him show
almost a prejudice against him
when evidencing their dislike. 1t
was no doubt Dean himself that
occasioned, during his life time,
this extreme sentiment. One
thing is certain, in many respects
he was 4 valuable citizen to our
country, and in many ways his
loss will be felt in years to come.
On the other hand it was shown
during the trial that Jenkins was
not only a hard working, ploddiug,
industrious man, but his character
as to peace and quiet was, to say
the least, commendable. This we
believe, was shown to be his char
scter from seven or eight years ago
up to within three months Of the
present time, except by one witness
with whom he (Jenkins) at one
time had some little difficulty. In
all that time it was shown that Jen-
kins had but one trouble that re-
CURED the attention of the court Of
justice, and that was with an ltal-
ian, whom he had placed under
bonds to keep the peace.
Altogether. the homicide was a
most unfortunate affair all round
It's source seems to have been such
as cannot well be remedied until all
our public lands are surveyed and
got into shape for market. In the |
meantime it might be vel. for those !
concerned to remember that certain |
Of these lands-and by this We
mean lands not settled on, and
lands on which no just claims have
been legally filed-are open to
the occupation of any one, and
every citizen has equal protection
on public domain and is entitled to |
equal justice Of common law. We |
mention this matter because the |
source of the troubles of most of |
the murders committed in Eureka |
county Of late years have been oyer

CHAPTER ".
ABOUT TO MARRY.

Suddenly, as she sat at the window, she
saw her handsome hostess appear, walking
in very sisterly way with the young horse
man. They promenadei the gravel walk up
and down, engaged in earnest talk; yet it
was not altogether serious, for the gentle
man laughed now and again, and SO did the
lady, only her laughter was by no means un-
constrained A striking couple, Vanity
thought. The lady looked more comely than
before in her morning dress; and as for the
with his youth, vigor, well-turned limbs,
and strong easy movements, he might we'll
win a woman's heart. It was manly face,
good -humored, not clever, but with enough
force to redeem it from the fault Of mere
beauty. "Neither wise man." Vanity
thought, ''nor simpleton. Man Of the world,
though; and good sort of that" It was
pleasant to see the brothers arm drawn
through the sisters as they walked; and the
leoks they exchanged expressed easy familiar
affection They walkedUp and down, down
and up, and each time they passed under

"There is generally danger when wasps are
about, remarked Maud, with a quiet enjoy
ment of her good fortune in the retort, ''un
less people are ON their guard"
The old lady regarded Maud Neville with
kind of angry misgiving, which was GU
riously tempered by personal trepide ton.
Mr.. Pembroke she called out d, imatic
ally, ''explain this. Maud cannot oe mad

''Not the slightest" replied Tom. "Well

"And you know" Maud interjected, with

slowly moved across the hail. The effect Of
the song on the sick child soon appeared. The
little weary voice caught up word or two
here and there, and sung it in drowsy,
satisfied tone.
"Maud," the husband whispered, in a low,
reproachful voice, II am grieved."
He felt hand in his own. Maud had
gtolen up to him from behind.
"Hush, she said "Can't you understandp
The sweeping gown touched his feet, and
the muffled head Of his child was close to his
own as the mysterious figure glided by, still
singing:
"Jesu, give the weary
Calm and sweet respose;
With thy tender blessing
May mine eyelids close"
''Why, Maud!' whispered Neville, clasp
ing his wifes hand, II could have sworn it
was your very voice."
''Is it not wonderfulF' she whispered
back. "Baby believes she is in my arms,
and she is quite happy" .,.......
In the darkness Neville felt his wife lean
ing her head on his shoulder, and pouring
out the mingled sorrow and thankfulness Of
her heart. h
Meanwhile the dusky figure was seen
slowly moving up the wide stairs toward the
room where the child was to be laid. Low,
sweet the lullaby sounded:
''Grant to little children
Visions bright of Thee,
Guard the sailors tossing
On the deep blue sea-"
"But, Maud, the husband said, ''when she
leaves the child in the room, how much bet

Dear, dearl" exclaimed his wife, but in
the lowest Of whispers, "she is going to nurse

Vanity had reached the door of the sick
room. They could now see her figure plainly,
and she turned round as If to give the mother
one last glimpse of her darling. ltr5

JUST THE THING
To Furnish Water Where Water is Hard to

Get.
In passing the plumbing establishment OF
B. E. Adams, 1910 Market street yesterday,
a reporter noticed quite crowd of pedes-
TRANS had stopped to look at pumping
machine which he has on exhibition IN his
window. The scribe went in and upon
inquiry and investigation, found that the
machine in question was an Ericsson hot
air pumping engine. 1t is handsome
piece of machinery, as well as very conve-
nient one, and is specially intended for
domestic use in lifting and forcing water
from wells and cisterns, or from Croton
pipes, to tanks on upper floors of build
ipgs in city or country. This
pumping engine can be run
by gas, coal, charcoal, or in fact any sort
Of fuel that will generate hot air. An en-
CINE is not needed to run it, as it takes no
more care than an ordinary cook stove as
there is no steam, no exhaust and is valve
less and noiseless. 1t is an uneXcelled
pumping engine fora county residence as
YOU can build fire under it and 60 away
about your work and it will run until the
ire is exhausted. The engine on exhibi
lion, as above stated, requires only q
pounds of coal or Is feet of gas to run it an
hour and will pump 200 gallons Of water 90
feet in that time. To any one in need OF
sater privilege which cannot be furnished
by the city either on account Of being out OF
town or because the water power will not
force it high enoug h should call and exam
inc the machine and they will doubtless
be surprised to find how cheaply and satls
factorily their needs can be supplied.
