THE Nimrods of this place are now
meeting with some success. George
Bidwell and Conrad Haag each got
deer the other day, but Jim Emerson
went out and raised 'em one. Jim
slew two big bucks, and he said it
wasn't good day for bucks either.
Jim Brooks and the religious, reveren-
tial scribe and poetic prevaricator of
the WORLD were also out, and before
we returned we were out 81 worth of
ammunition, but brought back, as
Bill Nye would say, big stock of
dapple-gray disgust, but no buck.
1t was all Jim's fault. He went into
big brush thicket to run out buck
that we suspicioned was in there
wrapped in the arms of Morpheus and
a feeling of serene, placid security.
Sure enough he was there, just in
that condition. When Jim espied
him he was within an arms length of
him, and the buck was comfortably
ensconced in his little bed, peaceful
ly snoring the sunny hours away
Jim was unduly excited and either
forgot that his gun was made to shoot
with, or was not cowardly enough to
take such an unfair advantage of Mr.
Buck. At any rate Jim raised his
gun and lammed the deer on his hind
quarters, and he sailed out, much
: startled, and appeared to be soaring
away on the wings of hurricane
and the bullets from our Wincheste
followed him in rapid succession un
til his form diminished to speck anC
finally vanished in the mists of th'
dim distance, but the deer was soar
=. ing away so fast the bullets neve
3 overlook him. People here, VIII
1 heard the rapid cracking of the riff
. and were led to believe that battl
e on small scale was being fought ol
the summit south of town, and tina
human gore was painting the ridg
red, will breathe a sigh of relief o.
reading this account, for they vii
. then know that not even the bloc
> of buck was shed.

Cutting Srrape at Rocky Bar.
Ssafnct,or


There was enacted in the Bar last
night, Tuesday the 10Th, tragedy,
which may result as fatally as the
Silver Mountain shooting. As near
as can ascertain the particulars are
about as follows: Jack Davis, Jack
Shirley, Jake Vettors, and a man
named Mike Rizer we're playing cards
in the City Brewery when dispute
arose between Smiley and Davis as
to how some play had been made.
Davis started to abuse ShiAey, when
ne (ShiAey) remonstrste and en-
deavored to convince him he was
wrong, but Davis still persisted in
his abuse. Shifey then said: "Da-
Wis, if | get up from this chair, you
will get the worst of it." Davis then
ran to the bar to get glass to throw
at Smiley, when Phil. Brenholf put
his hand on Davis shoulder and tried
to persuade him to desist. In the
meantime ShiAey had got up and
came up to Davis, and while Bren-
holt was talking to him made cut
at DAVIS neck. The knife missed its
mark the first time and plunged
through Brenholf's hand and into Da-
Wis arm. He made another pass and
cut Davis in the neck, making a dan
gerous and deep wound, and before
they could be separated, he again cut
Davis in the breast. During the time
this cutting was going on man by
the name of Bennett drew his knife
to interfere, when Vettors caught him
and pushed him back. Then Rizer
ran up to Vettors and accused Vet
tors with having struck Bennett and
commenced abusing Vettors in a
shameful manner and dared him out
doors. Rizer going to the door and
stepping out, Vettors followed. When
Vettors reached the door and was in
the act of stepping out, Rlzer stabbed
him three times in the abdomen and
ran, and has not been seen since.
Shifey was arrested and is now in
Jail. The doctor says he cannot as
yet determine whether the wounds of
Davis and Vettors will result fatally.

LOWER PAYETTE LETTER.

ED. WoRLD:-Well, the dry wealth
er and the bare hills and valley still,
remain with us, and the stock man
sweareth.
Those enterprising young men.
Salmon and Davis, who were SEN
fenced to Jail eighteen months ago
for one year for horse stealing, have
borrowed another band and departed
via Oregon for parts unknown, and
have to all appearances got there.
They were followed by some of our
alerts, but to no good.
Our schools are in full blast. Mrs.
Knox, principal, and Miss Carrie
Bradford in the primary department
OF the school at Emmett, are highly
spoken of on every side.
There has been some sickness of
late in the valley. Mr.. VIM. Fuller's
family have been down with what the
doctor calls typhoid fever. All are
better now. Mr.. Charlie Burge was
sick at their place, also.
The salmon are here. The river
is very low, and in consequence the
fish are not as plentiful as usual.
Mr.. Bascom has weather boarded
and painted his store and built new
barn, and that, with his new buggy,
makes nabob of him.
Mrs. Haley has sold to George
Stewart and wife her restaurant and
fixtures, and we hear intends visit
to Portland for medical treatment.
The ditch company still talk, and
the people here know it's wind that
has got hold of our best location for
a canal that we so much need.
The l. o. G. T. are SOLDERING up
and SO hold no meetings.
The times seem good. VIM. Hill
and VIM. Shepherd and Bert Sans
are building new houses up by Squaw
Creek butte. l. E. Mahan will build
on his farm up there and move there
summers and stay on his valley farm
winters. Others think of adopting
that plan.
The weather is beautiful, the
rights cool and delightful, but nc
frosts.
We will soon commence delivering
our trees and will take our Winches
ter along and stay few days. Their
God help the bear, cougars, &c. The
poor devils will have to climb If they
catch US. We are going with full
faith that if God don't help US ht
will not help the bear.
Items are scarce here and will b,
unless it rains.
Very little grain has been sowI
yet. Mrs. Andy Pugh has gone t.
Oregon, whittier Andy will follow
soon as his business can be closed up
Mr.. Editor, don't forget the prom
ise you have out of a visit to ou
valley, and the home of

Three or four days since the story
of a railroad wreck was wired us, in
which fifty seven people we're instant
ly killed and many more fearfully
wounded. 1t is said the acciden,
came through the fact that one over
worked engineer, completely tired
out, had fallen asleep at his post
The blindest folly that ever possessed
railroad company is that which does
not supply sufficient men to fill the
responsible stations. The cost o.
that wreck will be more than the wa
ges for a year of all the engineers ir
the employ of the company. By anc
by, when the world becomes sufficient
ly civilized, an accident like tha
from such cause, will work a con

The law of the United States is to-
day that it shall be unlawful for any
Chinese laborers who shall at any
time heretofore have been, or who
now or hereafter may be, resident
within the United States, and who
shall have departed or who shall de-
part therefrom to return or remain in
the United States'-that no more
certificates shall be issued by the
Custom House to departing Coolies,
and that all the certificates heretofore
issued are null and void. This sweep
ing rule must be regarded as just ret
ribution for the colossal perjury by
which the former Restriction Acts
were preached. In addition Section
2 of the present Restriction Act is
continued in force. That section
provides that "The master Of any ves-
sci who shall knowingly bring within
the United States on such vessel, and
land or attempt to land, or permit to
be landed, any Chinese laborer from
any foreign port or place, shall be
deemed guilty of misdemeanor, and,
on conviction thereof, shall be pun.
ished by a fine of not more than $500
for each and every such Chinese la
borer SO brought, and may also be i'm
prisoned for a term of not exceeding
one year." The new law also contin-
ues in force. Sections 10, IL and 10
of the Restriction Act of 1884, which
provide forfeiture for any vessel, the
master of which shall knowingly vio-
late the provisions of the act; fine
of $1,000 and imprisonment not to ex-
ceed one year for any one who shall
knowingly violate the provisions Of
the act; fine of $1,000 and imprison-
ment not to exceed one year for any
one who shall aid in bringing any OF
the prohibited Coolies into the United
States; and also for the deportation
of any Chinese found unlawfully il
the United States, at the expense o.
the United States, but the person!
who brought them are to be held re
sponsible to the government. Th'
new law and the sections of the Ac
of 1884 above quoted are now tn
laws of the United States. Unde
this Act no more Chinese can ente
but merchants, teachers, students an
travellers. These must however, b
provided with passports from tn
government from whose jurisdictio
they departed, which must be wise
by the American diplomatic repre-
sentative or consular officer. If the
come from Hong-kong or Victori'
B. c., as we read the Act, they mus
present passports from the BIRTHS
