Mourned as Dead.

Charley f. Price, foreman at the Half
Moon mine, last week received word from
two of his brothers in the East whom for
two years past he has mourned as dead.
Both the brothers were living at Johns
town Pa. in comparatively good circum-
stances, at the time of the great flood
there two years ago, and both were re-
ported, with their families, as among
those who were lost. All efforts to hear
from them failed, until two weeks ago,
when letters arrived from which it APP
pears that both were saved at the food
and moved off Immediately to another
place. One of them at the flood, hearing
the cry of warning mounted with his
family to the roof of his house. where they
all remained some length of time. The
building was swept away and the efforts
of the man tosavo himself and family from
drowning and the protracted strain and
exposure, so wore upon him after his res.
cue, as to affect his mind, and at the
first writing it was proposed to send him
West in the hope that change would
be beneficial A second letter however,
received few days ago stated that he
had suddenly grown worse and been
committed to the Insane Asylum.

Justice Court.

Last Saturday Frank Passini swore
out warrant for the arrest of Joseph
Delmue on a charge of assault and bat.
terry as having occurred on the 18th Of
last month when Delmue is said to have
kicked Passini in the face inhcting
serious injury to one of his eyes. Del.
niue pleaded not guilty and on account
of the absence of witness the trial of
the case was set for Tuesday next the 18th
inst. to occur before the Court without
jury.
On Tuesday B. N. Coleman of Royal
City filed complaint against ]. NJ. Green
of the same place alleging an assault,
Green having drawn pistol on him.
Constable dickinson brought Green in on
Wednesday. He pleaded not guilty and
the case will be tried before jury this
morning at 10 o'clock.
Wednesday B. N. Coleman sued J. NJ.
Green for bill $ll.S5 and issued a writ
OF attachment. The case was settled the
following day.

Let IL Stay There.

We said two weeks ago that If the
scaffold OF Ely from which Hank Parish
was recently swung into the great here.
after, was ours, we ought to have 1t here
ready for future use if required, and the
White Pine News wants us to take the
barbarous thing away at once; but on Sc
cond thought We suggest that our Com
missioners let it remain there, as, even if
circumstances here should again justify
the use of such a machine we will very
likely have to ask our neighbors to do
the work for us. The Lincoln county
juror will not allow himself to sit on
case where there is much probability of
bringing in verdict which requires
necktie party to carry it into effect SO
the thing will do us as much good there
as here.

Moving Indians.

John Roeder, who returned last Tues.
day from the Muddy Valley $50 miles
south of here where he remained two
days, reports the Indians from this whole
section OF country to be congregating
there. The Indians in the valley made
frequent inquiries of him as to whether
Indians from this vicinity were on their
way down or not On his return he met
squad after squad going south. The re-
cent Indian troubles in the east, and
Messiah craze in the northern part of this
State are supposed to be the causes of
the unrest among the Indians of this Sec
tion. They are peaceful but their pre-
sent movements alarm settlers of the
Muddy and request for State arms may
be made. The Wallapai Indians fire.
quenting Mineral Park, in Arizona just
over the line left that town some weeks
ago, the squaws in leaving saying to some
of the white women, "Squaw long time
wash for white woman, pretty soon white
woman wash for squaw" and since then
have tried to induce the Mohave tribe
farther down the river to join them and
go on the war path. So far their efforts
have failed but our Muddy settlers fear
overtures from the Wallapais to the
Indians now gathering there and want to
be prepared for fight if necessary. At
blackberry, Arizona, 30 miles from Min.
eral Park, government arms have been
procured and are held in readiness for
any break which may occur.
