On the 9th Of last month Mr.. Barnett, Of
Fl. Churchill. found an old Hebrew pedlar
in a deserted cabin on the outskirts of the
ranch. The man was in half-starved con-
dition and had both his feet frozen. Mr..
Barnett took him to the house and admins
tered to him as best he could until last Tues
day, when the man died. When found in
the cabin the man said he had been there
tive days. He had two pack horses with
him and couple Of boxes Of trinkets. Mr..
Barnett had the remains inferred and
informed Commissioner Shaw Of the
facts of the case. From papers found
in the clothes Of deceased it was learned
that his name was David Hessler, and that
he was "a years OF age. Besides the horses
and goods he had, $40 in money were found
in deceased's clothes. Commissioner Shaw
has had the facts in the case sent to San
Francisco, where it is thought Hessler leaves
wealthy relatives. 1t will be remembered
that the man passed through Dayton about
month ago. He stated, when here, that
he was on his way to Independence, CAL,

FOO KEY DISCHARGED.
Allowed to 90 Because He Did Not
Intend 70 Commit q Crime.

Last Saturday Sheriff Brann arrested the
Chinese store.keeper Foo Key, on a charge
Of selling whisky to Indians. The charge
was preferred by Piutc Pete, who said that
the liquor had been sold to his squaw Annie.
Foo was taken before Justice Hawkins and
was held in bonds Of $500 to appear Tues
day afternoon at o'clock for hearing.
Tuesday at the appointed time the major
ity OF the Flutes around town and a great
number Of Cinnamon were on hand to see
now the matter would end. District Attor-
ney Lolhrop appeared for the State and Mr..
Knight, Of Virginia City, conducted the de-
Tense. The witnesses for the State all tes-
tined that on the 10TH day Of last month the
squaw Annie went to Foo Keys store and
purchased ten cents worth Of gin. Foo Key
'did not deny that he sold the gin to the
squaw but said that the squaw represented
10 nm that white woman had sent her TO
purchase the liquor. Upon this ground the
defendants attorney argued the case. 1t
was shown that no white woman had sent
the squaw after the gin and that Annie had
SIMPLY worked this scheme to obtain the
liquor. After the arguments the Judge SAID
ne looked at the case as similar to one where
hquor was sold to children when their par.
ents sent them to saloons after it. He did
not believe liquor dealer could he held for

AlfAlfA ON Arid Land.

George Crum, . resident Of Battle Mount.
ain, Lander county, has demonstrated the
feasibility Of raising rye and alfalfa without
irrigation. He says that If the seed is sown
when the dust is deepest the Fall rains will
wet the ground sufficient to give the seed an
early and good start in the Spring. SO tina,
dry weather does not effect it in the least.
He contends that alfalfa is a dry weather
plant. He will send sample Of the rye
and alfalfa grown without irrigation to the
