parently not more than eighteen years
Old, 40 scantily clad that she had been
found nearly frozen 10 death, huddled
in an unused ssh cart in an alley.
From the Wild stare IN her black eyes
and her strange sctions 70 was evident
that sho was insane. Her black hair
hung down her back and the drizzling
rain on it had matted It and frozen. Her
scant calico dress WAS covered with
sieet and her feet were almost bare. No
one knew her She did not appear 10
be yagrant, but was likely a stranger
here.
At times there was CLEAN Of intelli-
gence in her beautiful face. and then sho
would talk 10 those about her. Once
she said her name was Maggie, and that
her husband was an army officer who had
a pension OF g, 900 year. II Is not be-
lieved that she Is married woman. Tho
police are trying 10 find her friends.
She appears to be refined During her
insane wanderings she frequently ex-
claimed, "Ob, my brain, my brain, and
putting her hand 10 her head, seemed
trying 10 force her mind 10 respond TO
the questions asked as her identity.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, February O.
Another muss-meeting of the miners OF
the Kanawha district was held at the
Winefrede Coal Works this morning
Upwards Of 400 men, representing near
w all the works in the Valley, were in
attendance-forty from the Black Band
Company walking distance OF about
twenty miles across the country in order
10 be present. Action was taken in
sistinc upon the Winefrede men to
come out for an additional advance
of a quarter of cent. The Winefrede
men finally held meeting among them
selves and decided to remain by a ma
iority of nineteen. 1t is thought that
thew will be prevented from working, as
another meeting has been called for
Monday next. The excitement among
the miners is high, and trouble IS antici-
pated. 1t is rumored here tonight that
the operators of the Valley held meet
ing yesterday, at which 1t was agreed to
reduce the price of mining to two and
one half cents. If this be true a gene
raj strike Will probably result.

AUSTIN, Nevada, Nov. 11.-News
has just reached here concerning
the particulars of a ira gedy at Cor
tez, 90 miles from here, which was
brought by Deputy Sheriff w. J..
Highly and Amos Coz bett.
Davis Sabani, an Italian, shot
Richard Holt, on Wednesday even
ing, in the stomach, inficting a
mortal wound, the latter dying in
twenty-four hours. His dying re-
quest was that he should get justice
and that the Court should hang his
murderer.
Sabasi shot Holt because he
could not get the lean Of money.
Parties took this murderer near
Cortez Mil and lynched him by
throwing a rops over the limb of a
tree and hosting him by the neck.
The Deputy Sheriff found his body
tied to bedpost at a boarding
house. Life had besn extinct about
ten hours.
The men would say nothing
about it, saying he must have COM
mitted suicide.
The knot was under his lett ear
and the rope had cut into the flesh
OF the neck.
Coroner Joseph Moss left here
last evening to hold an inquest.
Holt had a good reputation and
was generally liked.
Sabani was % years old and had
an unsayery reputation, having
been IN a number Of shooting
scrapes and was run off a ranch
lately by rancher with Winches-
fer rife.
