ruE A.QUsTrAL OF CROW

Sunday morning the jury In
the Crow case, after being out since
the evening previous, brought in a
verdict of Not guilty"
The verdict was what the public
had gen orally expected. 1t was an
unusual case, and much interest
was manifested in it. The testi-
mony of the case simply bore out
conclusions which most people OF
this vicinity had reached long ago.
While the killing was deliberate it
was clearly brought about by Ho-
gan's own brutal acts, and while
the deceased had many good quail
ties, he had rendered himself such
"A terror to his neighbors that his
uutimely taking off did not occasion
much regret.
There is, at the present time, ne
necessity for any citizen OF Nevada
to 20 constantly armed. Curley
Hogan had been for years known
as man who always went armed
and by natural disposition was
brutal, passionate and revencefui.
That he once attempted the life OF
Inc defendant, a mere boy, there
can be no doubt; that he often ex-
dressed the wish that ne had killed
him there can be no doubt; that he
ever and over again publicly an
peunced his intention of killing
him there can be no doubt.
After Hogan had received the
fatal shot he was picked up, and a
loaded six-shvoter found pyotrud-
Ing half way on; of his front pants
pocket.
Men who carry reviewers Gener-
:.lly carry them In the hip pocket.
When shifted to the front pocket
it is done for purpose that ihe
man who is to be shot may not
realize from the motion Of his OPP
ponent's hand that weapon Is
about 10 be drawn When q man
reaches to his hip pocket for
weapon it is the signal that trouble
is about to begin. When he places
his hand in his front pants pocket
he is not supposed to be about
drawing a weapon, and can have
his hand on the handle Of 4 pistol
all the while, unsupported by the
other. 1t requires two motions to
draw from behind and but enc to
draw from the front. When Hogan
secreted the pistol IN his front
pocket he meant to use 1t quickly.
|, is claimed that the invention OF
fire arms placed the weak on equal
terms with the strong. II certainly
did in this instance. The weak
boy, whose life had for SO long
been made a terror By man who
was a giant physically. finally blew
HIS tor,nentor's brains out with a
pistol. Hogau's blood was on bis
own head. He forced the quarrel
on the boy, followed him, threat
ened his life over and over again,
and was finally killed himself.
From all the circumstances sur
rounding the case 1t is clear to this
com immunity that the boy had either
to fee the country to save his life,
or kill Hogan. 1t was a deplor-
able and bloody piece of work. but
it carries its lesson with II, and
teaches that brollers and fighters
who make threats and carry hire
arms to terrorize their neighbors
are Just as liable to die suddenly as

some one of these popular breeds.

They are excellent winter layers,

prices. They are good table fowls,
among the best in fact. Take the

Tavern Signs.

The Democrat gives a short, interest

8 century ago, which graced and mark
ed the way-side inns of this and neigh

steam had taken the place of the coach
horse in which it corrects our hyl sthe'
sis that the "Blue Ball' was the con
yentional painted fiat board distng
uishiny insignia to the comfort and
hOspilalities of mine host. The "Blue
Ball' was a veritable globe painted
blue suspended by its axis in frame,
which uou tless metaphorcally pro-
claimed Bonatice's boundless ambition,
coveting the whole earth for his guest.
The public inn drew the public, the
public attracted the blaoksmiths shop

the steam car came, other trades and
callings began to cluster about these
places; trading establishments grew up

From what obscure origin doth much
of our greatness spring! And towns
like great names amo g men, which
neglect their opportunity go back to
the obscurity whence they sprang. And
this brings US to the important quest

who own property should oe allowed
to vote to levy taxes on that property.
If'such sensible and just system OF
managing cities, was inau2nrated'
millions on millions Of money would
be saved to advance useful industry,
and the corrupt politica! dens which
are established in all large cities to
atflict the whole nation at general
elections would be broken up. This
barnacle on our political system .of
governm ut is far reaching in its evil
consequences. Its haneful effects are
not circumscribed by corporation
lines, but are tax on the whole
COUNTRY.
The substance of honest industry
is eaten up by these rings of Idle,
vicious politicians, that keep IN pow

ponsible ballot, and taxes are swell

ushed up to bear them, and goods OF

Attempted Burglary

The clerks in Mr.. E. r. Buffington's
store were awakened on Sunday
night last about l o'clock, by the
ringing of the electric alarm, giving
notice that some person had entered
the store. The Sleeping room Of two
of the clerks is on the second floor of
the store. The aroused sleepers i'm
mediatel y turned out" and took a
convenient position whence they
could overlook the store room below.
One of the windows on the west side
had been forced open by the burglars,
but all was dark in the store room.
One of the clerks, Charles Cutler
thought he heard footsteps of the bur-
glar in the direction of tn money
drawer and fred pistol into that
part Of the store. If the robber was
in the store he got out in haste and
made good his escape. No trace Of
the visitor was discovered, and he
was given no time to secure any plum
der.
The front door had been unloei ed
by Selling the key with pair of nip
pers, which burglars use for this pur
pose. but strong bar across the
door on the inside. barred further ad-
vance in this direction. and the thief
then tried the window which was
forced open with jimmy. The front
door also bore marks of this burglar
implement, having been used to force
it open, when it refused to yield to
unlocking.
The night before our new mer
chant, Mr.. w. j. Ankrim received a
visit from a night prowler. The
kitchen was entered and loaves of
bread, dozen of buns, roast of
beef, and what butter was present,
were appropriated. 1t is most likely
that a member of the numerous tramp
family made this visit of inspection,
securing square meal for himself
and several other brother tramps.

cipally the poorer classes of colored people,
who will be buried by the county. There are
not half dozen tents in the city, and the
women andchildren are experiencing great
privations in consequence. As the night APP
proaches most of the heads of families are
trying to construct tents out of bed sheets,
spare awnings and any other material that
comes to their hands. The sun is about to
set upon another night of horror for poor
Charleston. 1t is calculated that at least
three-fourths of the city will have to be en-.
tirely rebuilt if the houses are to be inhabited.
THe LATEST.
There have been no more shocks of earth
quake in Charleston since 11:50 Wednesday
night, and the people are regaining courage.
Relief coming in from all parts of the coun-
try, and the government has sent tents for
the homeless. In all, thirty-6ve lives were
lost, and the number of injured is now esti-
mated at one hundred, though the number of
killed and wounded cannot be known for sew
eral days. Whole squares of property are in
ruins. The City Hall has great cracks in the
wall. Outside Of the city, in the direction of
Summerville, there are large cracks and
chasms in the ground. Mounds are thrown
up in some places, and the railroad tracks are
twisted into curious shapes. There we're two
shocks at Savannah, Ca, early Thursday
morning.
