THE ANDERSON CASE.
The Jury Finds the Defendant Nef
Guilty.

The case of j. p. Anderson, indicted for
branding calf not his own, was argued
Saturday. Close confinement, or the
eloquence of counsel, was TOO much for
one of the jurors, who became so i'll that
argument had to be postponed. A pre-
scription from Dr. Kent acted as an an
in the evening argument was resumed.
The Courtroom was crowded with spec
tators, several ladies being prescott, and
the formidable array of legal talent talked
itself hoarse. The prosecution asked for
verdict for petit larcency, while the de-
Tense contended for acquittal. The law
yers handled several of the witnesses
without gloves, and there is probability
that some of the legal lights will have to
fight according to the Marquis of Queens
bury or some other rules.
A few minutes before eleven o'clock at
night the Judge charged the jury and
the audience dispersed. Yesterday morn-
ing it was ascertained that the Jury
stood for acquittal to 3 for convici'or,
and at 3l5 P. NJ. Sheriff Fellows as
called by the jury and informed tiat
they had agreed upon verdict. Tie

find the defendant not guilty."
Thus ended trial in which unusual
interest was taken on account of the
facts that the defendant is wealthy
cattle owner, and that the Nevada Live
Stock Association was supposed to be
backing the State in prosecuting the case'

A STRANGER Ar SEA.

Captain Winding of the bark
Forest Queen, reports the capture
of a strange bird at sea, during the
passage down here from San Fran
cisco. The bird, which was caught
by a baited hook, was about the size
of swan. Its neck was of rich
gold color, its body snow white and
its wings white, tipped with black.
1t was very tame and hungry.
Fisherman Norris, passenger by The
Forest Queen, wanted to bring the
bird to Honolulu, but the Captain
said it would not live if kept aboard
ship. The cook of the vessel wanted
to stuff it, but the fisherman would
not have the bird killed. So the
bird was let go. The name of the
creature is not known. 1t is believed
to have been lost from some vessel.
From tip to tip Of the wings mea-
sured eight feet. The fisherman,
who has been all around the world,
never saw bird of that kind be-
