Jacob Gebert Was Injured Worse by
Young Than at First Supposed.
Jacob Gebert. who had portion of his
ear bitten off by man named Minet c..
Young on Tuesday night, is more seri-
ously injured than was at first thought.
It seems that Young, while Gebert was
PROSTATE, put his knee upon his breast
and injured him internally. He is con-
fined to his bed and was unable to appear
yesterday and swear to a complaint
against Young. 1t was stated yesterday
that the physician in attendance on him
considered his case grave one, and it is
possible Young may have to answer to a
more serious charge than was at first
supposed.

Dead Near Folsom.
A Folsom correspondent of the REC
oRD-UNIoN writes that an old man about

and was unable to get up again. Coroner
Clark went up to hold an inquest on the
remains. The mans name is unknown.
Deceased was 3 feet Z inches in hight,
and % or 20 years of age. He was dressed
in dark clothes, the coat being double
breasted. His hair was dark, but mixed
with gray. He had been seen about Fol-
som of late. There was nothing about
the body to indicate who the deceased

the value to health of the pure liquid

Its excellence is due to its presenting

beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

every Objectionable substance.

1hat is What Judge Buckley Gave tho

The charge against jim and Ed. Brady
came up in the Police Court yesterday.
1t will be remem bered that one of them
knocked Jerry Sullivan down with a
cobblestone and the other cut him in the
face, barely missing destroying his eye.
They were arrested and charged with
assault with deadly weapon, but the
City Attorney thought it best to allow the
charge to be reduced to battery. They
pleaded guilty and announced themselves
ready for sentence, which Judge Buck
ley pronounced, giving them six months
each in jail.
They had anticipated getting off lightly
and did not take to the sentence kindly,
although the general sentiment expressed
was that they were fortunate in escaping
a term at Folsom.

Trouble by SO Doing.
Yesterday morning Chief johnson
Sides went with one of his tribe to the
saloon of man named Goodrich about a
mile from Washington, on the Yolo side,
and asked for liquor. which was lfur-
nished to them. Thereupon the Chief
lodged a complaint against him for sell
ing liquor to Indians, and he was ar
rested by Constable Frommelt.
1t is claimed there is clear case
against him, and if so, he will probably
go to the penitentiary, as the law makes
it a felony. 1t is supposed he has on
former occasions sold liquor to members
OF the tribe and that the Chief, who is
bitterly opposed to having liquor sold to
his tribesmen, has taken his steps care
fully to make a sure case OF it.

wards him prior to the shooting, to pre-
vent him from killing himself, all tend
positively to prove that he did not intend
TO kill her.
But all these facts were elaborated be-
fore the jury and Judge. Much stress is
laid upon the fact last enumerated that
the deceased rushed toward the assallant
prior to the shooting and that fear would
naturally have driven her the other way.
In three other murder cases which now
have under consideration, exactly the re-
verse is true. Mrs. Vincent went toward
her husband and only fled after she was
mortally wounded. Bruggy's victim act
ually seized his hands and held them
aloft, and only by the bending of the
wrists did he receive the wound. Collins,
the victim of McNulty, was walking from
him, and when warned turned toward
him just assthe shot was fired. While in
close proximity to an assailant the natu-
raj instinct of man or woman is to
attempt to stay murderous assault.
Lastly, the large number OF good cltl-
Zens of Humboldt County who have Pc
titioned Tor a Communication of sentence.
In answer to this l must say that in
such cases petitions and remonstrances
should be viewed with caution. Few. II
any of the petitioners understand the
merits OF the case and are moved largely
by their impressions. They undoubtedly
all mean well and petitions always re-
ceive from me proper consideration. L
have treated the petitions and remon-
strances in this case with due respect.
In conclusion, [ will say that, however
much my sympathies may have been
aroused IN the case, my duty seems to me
to be plain, and l have therefore decided
not to interfere with the verdict Of the
jury and the judgment Of the court.
Very respectfully,
II. H. MARKHAM, Governor.
BAWDEN'S CRIME.
The crime for which Bawden is to be
executed to-day was the murder of Mrs.
Lily Price, at Eureka, some three years
ago. Mrs. Price was before her marriage
Miss Lily Wilcox and lived with her
parents at the Taylor mine, about three
miles from Georgetown. Eel Dorado
County.
Bawden boarded with her parents, and
having fallen in love with her was per-
sistent in his endeavors to win her for
his wife. She, however, married Mr..
Price, who lived in Eureka, and when
Bawden learned it he took the steamer
for that place, hunted up her residence,
and on her refusal to have anything to do
with him, he shot her. He was tried for
her murder, convicted and sentenced.
