TnE MURDERER EscArEs. Gus De.
Kay. the murderer Of Gus. Albright, an
account Of the which We Published last
week, made good his escape last Tuesday
evening The examination Of tho pris.
oner was commenced on 27th ult. before
the Justice at Hike and was continued till
p. m. the following day, when A. w.
Geer, who was acting as counsel for De.
Kay, seeing that his client was getting in
tight place, made a motion for an ad.
tournament in order TO obtain additional
counsel from Phoebe. This motion ap.
peared to be made in good faith, but the
subsequent result discloses it to have
been farce, as no person was sent for
counsel. A plan was constructed to res
cue the prisoner, and was successfully
carried out at dark on Tuesday evening.
On that day Delays brother was down
at Hopkins ranch, and Hopkins went
up to Hike and took Delays blackboard
and horses down, feigning that Albert was
going to drive them to Phoebe for an at.
torney; but in the meantime leaving his
own saddle-horsc tied in front OF Sharp's
house, where the prisoner was kept, and
about dark that evening DeKay made his
exit from the house, mounted Hopkins
horse, and rode to the ranch, where he
left the horse and took the animal that
Hopkins had brought there for him, and
sis supposed to have fled the country"
There is not any Jail at Hike, neither
were there any shackles there with which
to bind the prisoner. The constable went
in search of DeKay as soon as missed.
At Geer's place, both he and wife in
formed the constable that they had not
seen the escape, but the cattle about the
place showed an uneasy and restless con-
diton, as though they had been suddenly
disturbed We believe that several OF
the numbering crew of Pahranagat Valley
had banded together for the purpose of
rescuing DeKay at all hazards. 1t now
appears, from late accounts of the affray,
that the killing of Albright was a cold.
blooded murder and job, as all the muir.
ders in that valley have been. The next
Grand Jury should investigate this mat
ter thoroughly, and every person found
who in the least aided the escaped murder.
err should be indicted and sent to State:
Prison. Well has Pahranagat Valley
earned the appellation of 1.-THE Muir
derers' Paradise"
THE faithful of Phoebe Stake are very
tardy in coming forward and pungling W
their tithing and satiate the hunger Of
the Lord. Those who desire to pay tith
ing can pay it in coin just as well as il
turnips and carrots. In fact, the Lord''
agent in Phoebe would much prefer tha
the sheep of the flock pay their tithing il
metal, and either white or yellow meta
{ will do, for the Lords agent is not par
ticular, and will take anything he car
get his hands on. Bear in mind, dea
brethren of Phoebe Stake, that the Lord
in the big book that he keeps, makes op
4 posite each brothers name who neglec
TO pay tithing, big black mark the siz
of picket on Sherwood's lumber-yar
, fence, and when said brother enters tn
Wickiup Of Glory, and the black mark j
2 found opposite his name in the great reg
lister, he is taken to a chute, which j
e lined with creased boiler iron, and is sen
q sliding down into the River Styx. l
really appears as though all the brethren
i in Phoebe would take journey through
8 this long chute and be swallowed up b,
S the River Styx. To-day is the last yol
t have in which to pay tithing for 1884.
THE Lincoln countys Representative
have all left for Carson, and if none Q
them fall by the way-side, or get mired

left for the legislative hall about ten day
