A FATAL AFFRAY.
Tommy DOnahue Killed by "DOc"
CallisOn.

On Sunday afternoon about o'clock a
shooting aHray occurred at Candelara, re-
| sulting i'll the killing of Thes. Denahue by
| County Commissioner J. L. Callson. De-
tails of the affair are meager. AS near as we
have been able to learn the particulars, they
are as follows: There has been bad blood
between the parties for some time, although
the men were on speaking terms. On Sun
day morning Callison went to Pickhandle
| Gulch, where Donahue was playing cards,
and requested a loan Of $40, which DOnabue
refused. After some hot words, it is said,
Donahue struck Callison, and fist fight en-.
sued duriRC which blows were exchanged
The combatants were separated and Callison
returned to Candelaria. Subsequently Don
ahue also returned to town. About O'Clock
in the afternoon the two men met in front of
the express office. What passed between
them is not known, but each drew a pistol
simultaneously. -Four bullets from CALI
sons pistol struck Donahue, the fatal one
taking effect in his left breast. Donahue
fred but once and missed his man.
| Donahue died shortly after, and Callison
was placed under arrest.
| The preliminary examination was post
poned till the lot h Instant TO allow CallisoR
time to secure counsel.
Both Callison and Donahue are we'll known
in this vicinity. J. L. Callison, known a;
"Doc" by his familars, is a County Com
missioner, while his victim was prominent
| figure in local politics, and a well known
liner Walker Lake Bulletin.
"Doc" Callson is well known in Dayton,
having formerly been resident Of this place.
He is brother in law of George Midgley,
of this place, and has many frien DIS here who
will be sorry to learn that he is again in
trouble. Some years ago Callisen killed a
man named Turner in Candelaria ever a
mining dispute.

Runaway.

Thursday Dominica Ceresola tied his sad
die horse to Mr.. Kean's hitching post on
Pike street for few moments. When he
came out Of the store the horse began to
back, and after giving two or three hard
jerks succeeded in pulling up the post to
which he was tied. The post gave way very
suddenly and the horse was so surprised that
he sat down on the street to view the disas-
trous effects of his work. The scene did not
seem to please him, so he started down the
street with the post dangling to his halter.
He was caught near Hepworth's house by
Ruel MilsaPs, and though his ankles were
badly skinned up he was not seriously in.

Como to the Front.

H. w. Ely, Superintendent of the Buck
eye mine, at Como, came down from the
mine Thursday, and reports hav ing finished
cross cutting the ledge in that mine. He
finds it to be solid quartz, sixty five feet in
width and not foot of it that does not bear
gold and silver. He has ten feet of good
milling ore, and slreak of gold and silver
ore in which black sulphurets predominant,
and which is studded with free gold plainly
visible to the naked eye. Altogether this is
the finest development that has yet been
made at Como, and indicates that the long
looked fer "geod times" cannot be very dis.
