AN UNLUCKY TRIP.
County Commissioner A. J.-Litten
Meets with Misfortune.

Last Sunday afternoon, as County
Commissioner A. Littell was coming
to town, accompanied by his wife, TO
attend the regular meeting Of the Board,
he met with a streak of bad luck such
as does not very often fall TO the lot Of
such genial, good natured gentlemen as
he. In Eldorado Canyon he stopped at
a creek to water his horse. He took
the bit out of the horses mouth and the
festive equine at once started up the
hill on a run. Mr.. Littell held to his
neck and was dragged quite distance,
when he saw the horse headed toward
gully that had been washed out along
side of the road. He called TO Mrs.
Littell to jump from the buggy, at the
same time letting go Of the horse. For
tunately, they both, escaped without
serious injury and the horse plunged
wildly over an almost perpendicular
uahh aDout oSFSh iCSt hhSH. hS
buggy landed on a large bush and no
damage was done. After considerable
hard work, the rig was once more
placed upon the road, and Mr.. Littell,
after making careful investigation
and driving around awhile 20 make
sure that all was right, put his wife in
the buggy and resumed his course to
town. He had driven about four miles,
when, suddenly, something that had
been strained in the first accident gave
way and the horse began kicking. Mr..
Littell says that it took the beast about
FIVE seconds to kick himself loose from
the buggy. Nothing was left for them
to do then but walk to the toll house
for assistance. Arriving there, the bad
luck sull held out, as there was no one
at home. Mr.. Littel then walked to
town, where he told his mishaps to J.
X. Shaw, who &C once hilched up his
team and drove out and for Mrs. Littell.
The buggy was brought to town, and
put in shape by &. p. Randall. Mr..
Littell wishes to convey his thanks to
Messrs. Shaw and Randall for their
kindness.

Zine Grove Pickings.

The following items of interest from
Pine Grove are from the Wdlkf, Lake
Bulletin of last Wednesday:
E. w. Stewart has uncovered fine
ledge in the Wilson mine.
There are nine men at present en-
| ploycd in the Cambridge. There is
enough ore on hand to keep the mill
running for two months.
J. II. Beam has purchased farm in
Mason Valley. The people Of this
place will regret the loss of a good
citizen when Mr.. Beam takes his depar-
ture.
J.W. Wilson, brother OF County Com
missioner J. l. Wilson, who was
severely injured about two weeks ago
by falling down a shaft, is rapidly
improving.
Mr.. Willis, one of Cambridge's mine
owners, has struck three foot ledge OF
the richest ore ever discovered in that
vicinity. He anticipates steady run
for his arastra all Summer.
Two Bodie men visited this section
last week in search of an asbestos mine
that was discovered in 1862. The
original owner, not knowing the value
OF asbestos, never worked the claim.
William Wright and Sam Duff, two
Esmeralda prospectors, have struck a
very rich vein Of gold bearing quartz
about eight miles east OF Cambridge.
Assays from the prospect 90 from S2Io
to $3.50 per ton. The boys have very
flattering outlook.
w. IL. Robinson left for Cambridge
last Saturday on a tour of inspection.
He intends to purchase mine and the
Crab,own mill, if the property is as
represented. Should Mr.. Robinson be
successful, he will doubtless improve
business around Cambridge this Sum-
mer.
Talbot, of San Francisco, one of the
owners of the Wheeler mine, was in
town last week looking at the property
owned by his company. He was ac-
companied by a gentleman who came to
examine the tailngs here. There
are several thousand tons of ,ailings
that have been piled up and have been
undergoing a rust for eighteen years,
and they ought TO be pretty thoroughly
rusted by this time. The average
assay, from several tests made, is very
good, and there is no doubt that works
will be erected for the reduction OF
these ,aihngs.

WAR IN ITALY.
Sanguinary Celebration Of Easter
Sunday.

While the lowering clouds of war
darken the European horizon and send
the prices Of consols down below zero,
the Italian ranchers east of town, with
out going through the formality of
declaring war, fertilize their lands with
human gore. For some time there has
been bitter enmity between the rival
Italian owners of what are known as
the Barrett and Fitch ranches. The
road to town from the latter runs
through the former, and the quarrel had
waxed so warm that the Barrett men
threatened to populate the silent city of
the dead with the next black mugged
son Of Fitchite that dared to 60 over
the road. Last Sunday, being Easter
Sunday, grand old Roman high jinks
was INDUCED in. After large guam
tity OF simulants had been tucked away
with their garlic and macaroni, the
Barrett tigers determined to beard the
Fitch lions in their den. Selling upon
all Of the available weapons at hand,
an advance was made. The Pitches re-
tired to their dugout and refused to
evacuate the fort. The leader of the
Barretts, one Louis Quilici, ordered an
7. H.
down and the assailants swarmed into
the house. Mr.. Quilici hit Clio Batta
Gagharcli over the head with two
tined potato digger, inAicting possibly
fatal wound. Another Of the storming
party (whose name nearly broke DIR.
Hazlett's back while the DR.. was bring
ing it to town and smashed up all Of the
type that has attempted to grapple with
it) battered Mr.. Giovanni Bisagno's
one.t time beautiful countenauce with a
fragment of his name and an old
rusty, ragged Tin dipper until even his
mother in sunny Italy would have
failed to recognize him. a brother Of
Quilici received bad cut with a razor
between the thumb and forelnger Of
the right hand. Several shots were
fred, bat with no more disastrous effect
than the putting an end to hostiliiies.
Doctors Weber and liazlett were called
10 the scene OF the conflict and they
report the condition Of Gagharcli as
very serious. lie may possibly recover
and, on the other hand, he is liable to
die at any time. The other two a:e up
and around as it nothing had happened.
A warrant has been sworn out for Louis
Quilici, but he has, 50 far, managed to
escape arrest.

The xew Building.

Various and many are the surmises
regarding the new building being put up
between the Union Hotel and the Post.
Office. One gentleman, with ipecu-
latiye tendencies, is of the opinion that,
inasmuch as he has been informed that
il is TO be divided into three rooms, it
is TO be dedicated to the tickle goddess
in the name OF faro, keno and poker.
To set all doubts at rest, the reporter,
who has been taken into the secret,
informs wondering world that mine
hos, Charley, hred with spirit Of
rivalry by the recent art gifts OF Croker
and Sutro TO the cities Of Sacramento
and San Francisco, proposes TO i'm
mcrtallze himself by presenting to this
city an indispensable collection of pic
lures. Mr.. Anderson, the Carson
painter, is here hard at work, and will
have the pictures ready to hang by the
lime the building is completed.
