flour.
.But have no money" said the
man, pleadingly.
'Then you can't have the four,"
replied the storekeeper.
"But 1 must and viii have it. "
persisted the miner.
"My friend said the grocer" 1 am
as poor as you; have my goods, it
is true, bu, if you take them without
paying for tbem I too, will starve. y
Il can't help that" said the des-
perate miner. 81 must lave food for
my wife aud children"
Suiting the action to the word, he
leaped upon the counter, grabbed a
sack of four aud started toward the
door, his wife hanging to his arm,
imploring him not to DO it, and the
three children crying at his heels.
The grocer planted himself before
the rstreating man and was kaoeked
down by a blow from the miners fist

begging him to take the flour back
to its rightful owner. But tue miner
walked o. dcggedly toward his little
cabin in the outskirts of the town,
the crowd making way for him and
no one interfering with his progress

As soon as the grocer could pick
himself up from the floor he started
in search OF Tie sheriff That officer
summoned a posse of men and pro
ceedei to the door of the miners
cabin, followed by a considerable
crowd. Al the door TIE sheriff and
his men paused and looked within

the miner, his head between his
hands and the tears now for the first

The middle of the ioar Was the sack
Of -four, where the miner had thrown
it with such violence that the sack
had burst and the -four was scattered

New Hotel In Patterson

S!muel Leach, formerly Of the
Keystone Hotel, in Patterson, has
refitted and refurnished the old Cen
tral Hotel in that place, which mas
been unused for several years. The
new house is called the Ashton, and
is convenient in all its equipment. 1t
is heated throughout with steam. Its
bath and toilet room Is located on the
second floor and is fitted up with the
most approved sanitary equipment.
Everything about the house is new
and Mr.. Leach deserves great credit
for his efforts to furnish to the trav-
cling public such accommodations rs
are usually only found il cities. His
terms arc moderate and we feel con-
fident Mr.. Leach's move forward viii
be appreciated by the public.

way to the east in search OF work
Fully l,OO0 men were gathered about

fist, although the injuries are slid to
look Us if they had been made by
some instrument. The next day,
Thursday Rodgers was given a hear
ing, his defense being that Dollar
had run at him with double bitted
axe and that he had only defended
himself, but in default of bail he was
committed to Jail to await trial next
week.
1t was not thought Wednesday
that Dollar was seriously injured, as
he was at first able to get around
about as well as usual, but he was
hurt so badly that he died Friday af-
ternoon.
An inquest was deemed uuneces-
sary, but a post mortem examination
was made Friday evening by Drs
Parcels and Rinehart and they re-
ported that blood vessel was rup-
tured on the right side of Dollars,
head which caused a clot of blood to
form on his brain, and this killed
him.
