The lewis Case.

In the Carson appeal of July 18th.
there is long article claiming to give
the facts in the Lewis murder case,
and condemning the Board of Par
dons for refusing to turn him out OF
penitentiury.
The following extract from the APP
peal article, shows the fimsy nuture
OF che grounds upon which the friends
of the young man are seeking to nan-
utacture sympathy for him in the
hope that public sentiment will
eventually demand his pardon:
"The circumstances of the case are
that Que night Lewis wac passing a
saloon In Elko, when TN Italian came
out and began 10 abuse him In the
yilest language, at. the saue time
furnishing knife }"
The examination OF the record in
the case discloses the fact that there

was the foreman OF the rripoli mine,
at Highland near Bullion, in this
county, and q few days before the
murder had discharged Geo. Piccoli
whom he afterwards murdered. On
tho night of the End Of SeptemJer,
1887, there was dance ut Highland
which was attended by Levin aud
Piccoli.
After the dance, the parties met in
the saloon Of James Hamilton and
played cards and drank Considerable
liquor. Piccoli jumped, on the bar
and Lewis stood at the end. Every
one was talking when Piccoli said,
people in this place dorT'like me be-
cause I am an Italian" to which Lewis
replied, "you are mistaken, because
am down on no nationality" and Pic
coli then said II Gan 70 down and
work in a mine with you anywhere"
and Lewis said, "you have no money
that says 50, "aud Piccoli said II have"
placing his hand on his pocket, Lewis
said "you are liar if you think &c" to
which Piccoli replied, "you are bas-
tard." Lewis then picked up a chair
and raised it tn strike Piccoli when
other parties iuterfered and pushed
Lewis out of the door. Piccoli then
jumped of the bar and started for
the door but was caught and made to
sit down in the saloon and shortly
after went to his cabin. Lewis left
the saloon, went to Bullion, two miles
distant, got pistol, returned to High
land and shot Pic.oli in the back
through the window of his cabin, and
not satisfied with his cowardly work
he entered the cabin q short time
after and shoL Piccoli in the head as
he was lying dead upon the floor.
The case was tried twice in EIko
county, the jury disagreeing the first
time, and at the second trial Lewis
was convicted of murder in the Gee
ond degree and Sc 1teheed by Judge
Bigelow to the penitentiary for life.
The charge of Judge Bigelow to
the jury was sustained by the Su-
preme Court and he needs no de-
Tense. The sentiment Of the majority
nj the people who are familiar with
The facts OF the case, is that Lewis is
good man to keep in the peniten-
tiary for at least while longer.

CALIFORNIA; QUEER CAVERN

Wonder of tho tactic Const W hich Has
Never Been Explored.
On the north side Of Table mountain
and near its top is IN opening in the
lava that has since its early days been
known as 1.-The lions den." 1t was so
named from the fact that for years it
was the lair of band of ferocious Cal
ifornia lions that, when the country
was largely devoted to sheep raising,
made mighty deprcdations upon the
flocks and caused the owners much an
noyance and loss. When pursued the
animals would seek refuge in this den
and no hunter would dare to enter it.
The ground about the entrance was
covered with tho bones and remnants
of sheep and other animals. With tho
Increase Of population the lions have
gradually disappeared, although as late
as last spring two of the animals were
seen to enter the cave. Oroville Her
curry says no known man has ever pen
ctrated this cave to it's fullest depth
The mouth is about four or live feet
high and three feet wide and the Open
ing descends with a sharp decline for
about two hundred feet Further than
this 1t has never been explored. Now,
however, party of young men have
made arrangements to explore it, and,
If possible, penetrate to it's bottom.
That it is OF great depth is ceBtain, for
one can stand at the opening and heave
great stones down the declivity and the
sound will gradually die away in the
distance, The young men have pro.
cured several hundred feet of ropes,
torches and ladders and Will thoroughly
explore the cavern,
What adds n peculiar interest to the
expedition and gives zcst to the explor-
crs is the well-known fact that in the
hcydey Of his career as bandit Joaquin
iurietta aud his band of faithful fol-
overs made the recesses of Table
mountain the base of their operations
in this section. From there they would
swoop down on the miners, and then,
laden with gold dust, retreat to the
mountains, Search as they might, the
officers could not locate them. 1t has
been supposed by many this same cave
was where the famous outlaw secreted
himself. It may be, too, that deep

COINED e4 BRIGHAM YOUNG,

Five-Dollar Gold Pieces which Arc Now
Rnrities-Too soft for Uso.
County Commissioner Ballard, of San
Francisco, is the possesSor of a rare and
curious gold coin which fell into his
hands in California in 1S49. 1t is a
Mormon fve-dollar piece, and for many
years has been employed as charm or
bangle on Mr.. Billiards. fob chain. The
owner himself was '49er, and took
part in the early gold excitement in
California He told a New York Re.
cor>ier man that the Mormons, who
were among the earliest in the gold
fields, returned to Salt Lake with great
Quantities of the precious yellow dust.
Much gold also found its way to Utah
through other avenues. Brigham Young,
who was at that time running q little
government on bis own account, estab-
lishcd mint and coined probably one
million dollars in fivc-dollar gold pieces.
These coins very soon found their way
to California and passed current. At
that early date, Mr.. Ballard says, the
coins were welcomed as great
convenience in matters of exchange.
The metal in the coins was unalloycd-
80 soft and pure, in fact, that it wore
away very rapidly. On this account
they soon disappeared from circulation
almost as rapidly Us they had appeared.

hands are the words, five dollars" and
the date 1880" On the other side, in
the center of the coin is the all-sceing
eye, and below that a beehive, while
around the margin are these words,
Holiness to the Lord" Mr.. Ballard
has had some trouble in keeping his coin.
Once he accidentally lost the keepsake,
but was lucky enough to find it again.
Another time a thief got into his house
and took all the money from his pocket
book except this odd-loolring coin,
which, at Il glance, resembles trunk

ago. Mi. Ballard then attached it to
his morocco fob chain, which is anchored
to an oldafashioncd silver watch the
movement of which is also dated 1870.
