Last week L. M. Kellum met
with quite. a serious accident at
Gold Hill. He was watering his
stock and was standing on a plat
form at the well. A couple of
young bovines had it in for each
other and started a scrap. One of
them drove the other towards Mr..
Kellum who was not noticing what
was going on. He was knocked
off the platform and struck on his
side across a timber. He was
hardly able to get around for Sc "
eral days, but is now, we are glad
to know, very much better.-Lib
eral.
When the Mexican came after
the reward for the recovery of
John Otis body from the river,
he inquired of Fred Leyser, who
was acting as interpreter, if John
had worn a finger ring. Fred did
not know whether he had or not,
but as the question made him sus-
picious, he quickly replied, eyes,
and if you don't bring it back you
won't get the reward money" The
man went out and in half an hour
came back with n valuable dia-
mond ring which had been shaped
from the finger when the body
was found. San Marcial Bee.
Information comes from Car
thage that Hiram Currier, one of
the parties sentenced two or three
years ago for life for the cold
blooded murder of Geo. w. Rich
ards, superintendent of the Garth
age coal mines, which occurred
while he was paying off the COM
pany men under his charge, has
been killed at some point in Tex
as. 1t will be remembered that
Currier escaped from the peniten-
tiary and was not recaptured. The
information received here in re-
gard TO his death is that a relative
of Mr.. Richards met him in Texas
and hearing him boast of his com
plicity in the killing of Richards,
killed him. Further than this no
particulars + known here.--Citi-
zen.
Tho concentration was started
again yesterday but owing to the
immense power exerted by the
pump, causing the building to
shake with every movement, it has
been decided to delay work until
its removal outside the machine
room. 1t will be some four or
five days before the machinery
will be started again. The con-
centrating hat has been done has
proven more than satisfactory to
Messrs. Wood and Dennison. The
concentrates running over 20 per
cent. in lead and a good average
OF silver. OF course it is at pres
ent impossible to tell the exact
capacity of the concentration but it
is thought that it will reach so
tons and over a day.-Rio Grande
Republican.
