JOHN w. KELLY SHOT.
Jim Grant Fires TWO Shots Into
the Bodie Superintendent

Last Sunday morning JAS. A. Grant
shot john w. Kelly, Superintendent OF
the Bodie mines, in an encounter on
the streets of Bodle. Two bullets
struck Kelly, one entering near the
mouth and the other in the right side.
1t is reported that for some time past
Kelly has been on intimate terms with
young woman, whom he promised
to marry. Not long since child was
born to the woman while in San Fran
cisco, and it is said that Kelly was
supplying her with money during her
sickness Last Friday she arrived in
Hawthorne and took the stage for
Bodie. She was accompanied by her
stepfather, Jas. A. Grant, miner well
known in this State.
Upon arriving in Bodie Grant called
upon Kelly and insisted that he marry
the girl. Kelly was undecided and
asked for time to consider. A few
hours subsequently the two men met
on the street. Grant asked Kelly if he
had made up his mind and Kelly said
he would not marry the girl. Grant
then said: Are you armed ~ at the
same time time drawing his pistol
Kelly replied Yes" and attempted 10
draw weapon, when Crane began
shooting. Two bullets took effect as
stated above, one missed altogether
and then Grants pistol snapped At
this juncture crowd of by-standers
seized Grant, and he was pretty rough.
ly banded for a while.
Later advices are to the effect that
only one shot struck Kelly. The next
shot passed harmlessly under his right
arm and the bullet entered the drug
store. AT this juncture Kelly struck
Grant over the head with his pistol and
in the clinch which followed, Grants
pistol was thrown into the street.
Kelly then threw him to the ground
and held his pistol to Grants heart,
but did not shoot, although bullet
from Grants gun had passed through
his face.
1t is said the affair has stirred up
quite race feeling between the Irish
and Canadians, Grant being a Cana
dian.
Grant and his step daughter were in
Hawthorne yesterday en- route for
Virginia City. Grant was at one time
Deputy Sheriff of Bodie, and. for a
long time foreman of the Becher
mine, Gold Hill.
The extent of Kelly's injuries is not
known, but he is supposed not to be
dangerously hurt as his friends agreed
not to prosecute Grant if he would
leave town, which he did yesterday.

The BreyfogIe.

Deminick Briden and William IT.
win, Jr., have returned to San Fran
cisco from the Pahrump Valley, where
it has been alleged that the lost Brey-
fogle nine has been found. They say
that they carefully inspected the dis
trict and that its merits have been
greatly exaggerated. There are many
quartz lodges, but the ore is in punches
and is of too low a grade to be worked
at profit in such an isolated place

THE HARVEST EXCURSIONS.
Some Suggestions from the Burlington
General Passenger Agent.

OMAHA, Aug. 1.-The attention of the
press is called to the fact that arrange
ments have been made for three harvest
excursion at a rate of one fare and a third,
to points in Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado.
Wyoming and South Dakota.
Tickets will be sold on Aug. %, Sept.
Is and 30, from points as far east as Chi
cago, Peoria and St. LOUIS. 1t is ex-
pected hat the cooperation of lines east
Of the points named will be secured.
The Burlington will advertise these eX-
curslons extensively, and viii distribute
large quantities of matter advertising the
agricultural capabilities of the states trav-
versed by its line. Such advertising must
necessarily be general in its character. 1t
should therefore be supplemented by the
various communities, setting on foot some
public move to get up advertising matter
setting forth the advantages and induce
ments which the different localities may
have to offer to home seekers. A well
qualified man should then be selected to
go east aud distribute such matter and
personally work up interest in his section
among eastern farmers.
No man should be selected to go east
whose heart is not in the work.
The railways in the past have furnished
transportation for NAM such advertising
agents, and their work has been no small
factor in the splendid growth of the trans
Missouri region. j. FRANCIS,

FRESH FROM SARATOGA.
The State Auditor is Deeply Impressed
with the Growth of the Town.

G. w. Burdick has come back from
Saratoga brimful of enthusiasm over the
future Of the lively town. He says that
he was surprised at the plentiiulness of
money and the hopeful feeling of the peo-
pie. The ranchers all have good crops,
cattle and horses are doing exceedingly
well and the present year will be a good
one.
The Rochester capitalists, who are inter
ested in the city, are making quite a
number of improvements and are now
going ahead, spending lots of money and
dong their work in a systematic manner.
He thinks that Saratoga, even it the
tributary mines fail to pan out, will be
quite a town, something after the style of
Greeley. Colo, probably with a popula-
ton Of five or six thousand inhabitants
within the mex few years, as the sur
rounding country will demand a city of
the above size as a distributing point for
supplies.
Chatterton's mine is the best developed
in that section OF the country and is soon
to have a mill TO work the ore. He
thinks that al. Saratoga needs is a rail-
road and then the town will go ahead at
a rapid gait.

THE JOKE ON ..CmAr.-
Carbon's Senator Taken IN Contrary
TO His Own Law.

The latest form of swindling is for some
sharper to claim TO be representing a
building and loan ASSOCIATION and to work
his victim by claiming to make HIM a loan.
Several reports nave come from different
towns in the state in regard to the
swindles.
There is a state law compelling each
representative of an insurance company
or loan association to have a license, ana
by asking to see the agents license it can
be told whether he is a swindler or not.
The Joke is on Senator Chatterton of
Saratoga, who introduced the bill in the
legislature compelling the agents to have
a license and was the first taken III by the
sharper who worked the town. Mr..
Chattcrtou never thought about asking
for a look at the agents license until he
was out of the country with the money of
the natives in his jeans.
