Alden to Salt Lake.

Jake Leviberg, for so many years the
proprietor of a popular stand on Main
street, and latterly the founder OF
the merchant tailoring establishment
in the Emporium building, has con-
cluded to pull up stakes and will leave
Tor New York within a few DAYS. He
has closed out his cigar and saloon bust
ness to Malsh & Co., who will take i'm
mediate possession, and the tailoring
establishment will continue under the
able proprietorship of Mr.. Obendorfer
who has heretofore managed it with ex-
cellent satisfaction.
Mr. Leviberg will be ACCOMPANIED by
his wife, and the intention is to locate in
New York for permanency. The gentle
man will be greatly missed by host of
friends, and as for Mrs. Leviberg. her
going will be very heartily regretted by
Salt Lake society, in which she has made
herself quite popular. Her very efficient
aid in local opera here made her almost
indispensable in that field also, not on ac-
count of her admirable voice any more
than for her able management. Mr.. and
Mrs. Leviberg will take with them the
pest wishes of their Salt Lake friends.

HabeaS Corpus for Her Baby.

A rather interesting case came I'D in
court this morning on the filing of a Pc
tltlon for writ of habeas corpus by Mrs.
Louisa NJ. Olmstead, who has just come
down from Shoshone, Idaho. The lady,
it appears, gave birth to a child at the
home of Martha Jones, commonly known
as Nellie Bagley, at Shoshone, some
nineteen months ago, and sometime
afterwards left the child in the care of
her friend. Recently she got into a posi-
ton where she was able to take the child
to her own home, and when about to ap-
ply for it, discovered that friend and
child were out of reach. The matter has
been traced up and, ascertaining that
her child had been brought down
to Salt Lake City, the dis
tracted mother came in pursuit. The
child has been here some six weeks. and
was found in the possession of the identi-
cal Martha Jones. The court this morn
ing issued the writ, and it was served
with all possible haste upon the party.
1t was feared, however, that before the
court could hear the case the woman and
child would be again far out of reach, as
the writ made no provision. of course for
holding the party in custody.
The case came up this afternoon at 2
o'clock, and Major Woods, Martha Jones'
attorney, submitted to the court that
lady's affidavit setting forth that the
child had been taken from her at the
mothers request soon after its birth. and
had been legally adopted. The adoption
papers were at Shoshone, Idaho, and it
would require some few days to pro-
duce them. The Court accordingly set |
the case for the 25th ult, when it is ex-
pected the child will be awarded to its |
lawful claimant.

EDITOR DEMOCRAT. A horrible murder
was committed here yesterday about sun
down. The facts are these: A man
(Gentile) by the name OF Oliver Speed
was accosted by a boy belonging to Mr..
Reuben Mcbride, who, among other
things, told Mr.. Speed that he (Speed)
was pretty fellow to herd sheep-that
he had held commerce with the sheep he
was herding, etc. The boy continuing
his talk, Mr.. Speed hit him once or twice,
Whereupon the boy went to house near
| by, where his father was, and called him
out and told him. The father drew his
revolver and went up and struck Speed.
grazing his face. Speed took hold of him
to save himself, when Mcbride set the
revolver to his breast and fired; he fired
again, and the two bullets entered. one
right under the heart, the other near the
right nipple. Speed fell, and Mcbride
ned up the street, but paused after run
ming little distance, swung the revolver
over his head, and exclaimed: e'I have
killed one Cd id So of a b
and am glad of itr'
Several men who were in the house
with MIR. Mcbride came out by this time,
and one OF them seeing our sheriff, called
TO him to come and he would help arrest
him. MIR. James King, one of our JUS
tees of the Peace, being in the crowd
called out-"He can't do it without
papers," The sheriff did not go, and it
gave the criminal time to escape. Papers
were finally made out, when a dispute
arose between the city marshal and the
snerlff as to whose duty it was to take
him. Each said it belonged to the other
to do it. '0 0''''-
The man Speed died soon after 10
o'clock, some four hours after being shot.

thinking it wise not to leave, sent word |
that if they would lay down their arms |
he would surrender himself. He was
found in his brothers. stable. Thev took
him to his own house and guarded him
there, and brought him up for a prelimi-
nary trial about noon to-day, when his
trial was set for Monday, March 29th.
The idea seems to be to get a good
lawyer and try to clear him. They have
already got rumors afoat that he killed
him In self-defense. So far thew have
not put him in the pen, but guard him

BURIAL OF MRS. DINwOODEY.
Her Husband May BE Released
from the Pen to Attend Her
Funeral.

ADEMocRAT reporter happened in Com
missioner McKay's Office this morning
and overheard that gentleman announce
his intention of trying to obtain for
/ Henry Dinwoodey a leave of absence
from the penitentiary tomorrow during
the funeral services of Mrs. Ellen Din
woodey. Mr.. Mckay said: 81 have a
very great respect for Dinwoodey, not
withstanding his contemplate action
before Judge Zane in his recent trial
believe him to be thoroughly
trustworthy in every other respect
than on his religion, and in that
he has only proven himself to be what
every one of them has before and after
him. They will bear false witness and
even perjure themselves in this one
particular. That Dinwoodey intended
observing the Edmunds law in the future
l have not the least doubt in the world.
He approached me as many as half-a-
dozen times on the subject, and wanted
to know if he could not arrange to have
matters fixed up without his going to the
pen. l told him he ought to come right
out like John Sharp, S. w. Sears and
others had; he could afford to.
He said he had once thought of
doing SO, but had since concluded
that he could not face the consequences.
All that he had was in his business and
it would ruin him. l finally asked him
if he would be willing to 90 into court,
plead guilty, and let the sentence be sus-
pended at the discretion of the Court. |
He said he would willingly do that. 1 |
explained to him that it might be ar
ranged that way without his making any |
further statement than simply acquiesing
in the arrangement when it should be ex- |
planned to the Court. If he observed
strictly to live with his first wife alone
thereafter there would be no danger of
trouble, but if he was discovered
IN any deceptive conduct the
Court would summon him and
enforce the penalty without investigation.
These conditions were perfectly agreeable

ELECTRICITY IN QUARTZ MILLS.
Gigantic Enterprise Oh the Com.
stOck-Esunning 100 Stamps
for $500 Per Month.

A company of capitalists to be known
as the "Comstock Dynamo Electric Light
and Motive Power Company" has recent.
ly been organized. They have secured a
water right on the Truckee river, where
dynamo machine will be set up to trans.
NIT power for the purpose of illuminating
| the Sutro tunnel and the Comstock mines,
and furnishing motive power for quartz
mills to be erected convenient to large
deposits of grade ore.
A dynamo machine will be set I'D on
the Truckee capable of receiving the en-
tire motive power OF the river The
power will be furnished bv q Laffel
wheel, propelled by the full head of
water in that stream with 1OO-foot fall
The power will be transmitted over a
copper wire one-quarter of an inch in
diameter to receiving dynamo machine
at this end, This receiver will be con-
nected by betting with the cam shafts in
the mill.
1t is claimed that only 20 per cent. of
the motive power of the turbine wheel
will be lost in transmission. The actual
cost OF driving 100-stamp mill by this
method, it is said, will not exceed 5000
per month. The cost of transportation
OF Comstock ores to the mills on the Car
son river foots up nearly 81 900 per dav.
BY building mills adjacent to the
mines this sum will be saved as we'll as the
cost of handling the ore over three differ
emit times as at present The mills will
be so arranged that ore can be dumped
directly into self-feeders from the mine
cars in which it is hoisted to the surface
The projectors of the enterprise claim
that ore assaying less than So per ton can
or worked at profit by the cheap sys-
tenn OF handling which they intend to in
troduce
The cost of the plant for this great en-.
terprise will not exceed $4,000. The |
company's plan includes the lighting Of
the city by electricity and the running of
line OF street cars from Virginia to |
Gold Hill, to be propelled by an electric |
motor.
The machinery for the plant has been
ordered from Eastern manufacturers and
IS now In course of construction. The cost
Of laying the wire between the Truckee
liver and this point is estimated at 5000
per mile. The wire will be stretched as
he crow flies, and will be only eighteen
niles in length. A we'll known Comstock

HENRY W. NAIsBITTs CASE.
Three Indictments Against Him
Pitiable Condition of One of
His Wives.

It is somewhat amusing to learn that
after the emphatic protestations OF Henry
W. Naisbitt, assuring the deputies that
there couldn't possibly be a case OF I'M
lawful cohabitation against him, that the
Grand Jury found two indictments against
him on the examination of two wives
only, and there is still another county to
here from. On these three indictments
suitable bail has been furnished, and on
Saturday afternoon Deputy Smith went
in pursuit of another branch of the gen
tleman's family-Mrs. Kate Hagel Nais-
bitt, who resides at Hooperville.
At Ogden the deputy procured buggy
and drove to the little villa, accompanied
by an assistant, whom he picked up at
Ogden. With very little trouble they
ascertained the whereabouts OF the lady
in question, and presented the warrant
of arrest. Mrs. Naisbitt was found in
critically PROSTATE condition, having sui
fered premature confinement within the
past week or two. No medical aid had
been summoned, it was ascertained, and
the unfortunate lady was helplessly
miserable. Deputy Smith received
guarantee for her attendance at court
when she should become well enough for
such, and left her under the surveillance
of an authorized officer. This morning
the fact was communicated to Mr.. Nais-
bitt and he furnished bonds for the lady,
with David James and son as sureties.
Deputy Smith was sadly impressed
with the incidents of Mrs. Naisbitt's
arrest, and stated that she is positively
in an alarming condition, without any
apparent aid of the needed character. 1t |
was II o'clock at night when he reached
her house, and very shortly afterwards
two old ladies came in to see what they
could do.
Mr.. Naisbitt himself, charged the
officers, this morning, that if his wife
died her blood would be upon their heads.
The Court, it is said, has good evil
fences that show Naisbitt to have been
he writer of many of the Deseret NeaUs
lrtlcles which have advocated violation
If law and obedience to the higher law;
md, also, that he has been enthusiastic
