A Battle Royal.

WILLIAMSON, May 10.-Last
night three United States deputy
marshals swooped down upon 3.
F. Dacus (of Cedar Grove noio-
riety) living some three miles
southeast from Williamson, who
is suspected of running a weak
eyed tiger. Mr.. Dacus did not
tamely submit, but with ihe aid of
his sixteen-year-old son and a
fourteen-year-old daughter made
a stout and successful resistance.
Pow stocks, swihgle-trees, sticks
and pistols were freely used.
While the battle ranged furiously
and "long time in even scale
hung" Miss Lucia Dacus, a beau
tiful brunette of fine physique and
flashing black eyes, sprang from
her room in noctural garments ar
rayed, and with one well directed
blow with q club felled one of the
deputies and seiztng his pistol
covered another with it, thus en-
abling her father to secure pillow
stock, with which he felled another
one of the deputies and captured
his gun.
1t was now quite an easy matter
to disarm the remaining deputy,
which was done. The deputies
being disarmed, they prccipitately
fled for their lives. The conquering
heroes turned the captured guns
upon the frightened fugit1ves and
by the sharp reports of some half
dozen rapidly firing revolvers &C
celebrated them in their glorious
flight. One of the deputies is
seriously hurt by being struck
with.a plow stock. All are more
or less battered and bruised.

The Study of the Bible.
New York Mail and Express.

New York Mail and Express.
Some time since, when "the au-
tocrat of the breakfast table" was
asked TO advise student of Eng
lish literature in the selection of
books, DR.. Holmes named the BIZ
bic and Shakespeare as compass
ing the brightest thought and the
n.ost scholarly English to be found
in the language. In linz with the
sage reasoning of the Boston
scholar, the religious community
in Washington has recently joined
hands with the American Society
of Religious Education, whose
purpose is to enlist the scholars of
the country IN devising more
thoughtful methods of Bible study
than have hitherto obtained.
Already fifty prominenent schol-
ars, who will be divided Tito four
classes, to consider the family, the
college, the closet and the Sunday
school, have been chosen as fellows
of the society, and the work is to
be carried On in earnest through
out the land. Annually these rep
reseLtatlves of the society will be
called together in Washington,
and will join in symposium of
Bible papers, and read and discuss
systems of instruction. The plan
of disseminating the new system
of study and instruction in Bible
lore, through fraternities who will
Systematically carry the work into
the bearts of families and Sunday
schools, is novel and altogether adj
mirable.
Aside from the uplifting spiritual
enlightenment that must come
from special study of the Bible,
carried forward under such auspi-
cies, the study S of the best exam
piles to be found of Enf!ish litera-
ture is no inconsiderable factor in
this educational propaganda. Fol
lowing the lines of the government
Bureau of Edncation, the head
quarters of the society in Wash
ington will continue an extensive
collection, of all publications re-
lating to the Bible, which will be
accessible to the public at all times.
It would seem that the aid of the
Christian End deaNor4 tiesy-al-
ready existing and admirably or
ganized, might wcll be employed
as adjuncts to the promotion of
the systematic study of the Bible,
undertaken by the fraternities au-
thorized to disseminate the good
work. Religion and literature will
go hand in hand in this new cru
SADIE. so auspiciouslY inaugurated.

take an orange and coolly saunter
off. There was no occasion to raise
a row over it, but the gentleman
felt it his duty to follow the boy
and observe:
Il saw you hook that orange, my
boy. 1t isn't of much value, but
if you begin this way where will
you end?"
II never took it," he stoutly re-.
piled.

"There it is III your pocket"

"Oh, WE'LL" he sputtered as he
worked the orange out, "this is

THE zfRN STRIKE.

Everybody is excited over the recent
strike in the Zirn & Schulz mine in
Pine Nut and many people from
q distance have visited the mine. All
who have seen II pronounce il the
greatest strike aver made in this
county. Messrs Zirn and Shulz have
made several trips TO Carson in the
past ten days, taking in from $1,000 to
5000 worth of gold every trip. The
mine is guarded by two men day and
night, and the GRE is SO rich that only
a very few people have been allowed
to see 1t at the mine, says the Genoa
Courier.
1t is now regarded as certain that
this district will be systematically pros
pected and it is confidently expected
that many paying properties will be
developed. 1t lie hoped that all who
have taken up claims will work them
in some way. The Pine Nut hills are
full Of gold and q little systematic work
will surely bring some Of it to light.
A townsite has been surveyed and
everything is progressing favorably for
Q booming mining camp.

further proceedings in the cas- The
motion was made upon the affidavit Of
defendant and was argued by Mr..
Dodge. The District Attorney opposed
the motion on the ground that the
court had no authority to admit the
defendant TO bail at this stage of the
case. The Court took the same view
Of the matter and stated that there
being no provision Of the statute for
admitting the deiendent to bail after
the rendering Of a verdict ngainst her
and before the taking of an appeal to
the Supreme Court, the Court had no
authority TO admit her to bail, and an
order to do so would be a nullity. The
motion was denied.

The Elko Independent learns Of q
serious loss Of cattle in Ruby Valley
from q disease supposed TO be Texas
fever. The disease is said to have been
brought from California. 1t is prov
ing very fatal. Mr.. Wines tells the
Independent that people are getting
considerably excited over the matter
and request anyone knowing anything
about the disease or how to check it to
make the information public.
The attention Of Professor Miller
having been directed to the matter
that gentleman wired the Independent
that he is preparing a bulletin on the
disease which will be given TO the
public Immediately. He has been in
vestigating the disease in Carson Val
ley. He says it was brought to Doug
las county by a drove Of milch cows
imported from California. 1t affects
native cattle, but not those imported,
and 122 COWS out OF 16s have died, and
when he visited the valley a few days
ago cattle were dying at the rate Of six
or eight q day. Professor Miller says
freezing will ultimately end it and 1t
will not reappear the following season
in this climate.

which is locally known as "heaven."
The climate is perfection itself; it's

square miles comprising this Mexican
heaven there are more centenarians
than in any whole State Of our Union.

John Hyder was arrested at Ken.
nedy last week on suspicion Of having
murdered James Casey Of Galens,
who mysteriously disappeared . couple
Of weeks ago. Casey was last seen in
Hyder's company, and after every
canyon and prospect hole in the vicin-
ity Of Galena had beed searched for
the missing man, suspicion fell upon
Hyder. His house was searched and
blood stains found upon the floor,
on q pair of overalls and on q wagon
near the house. A bottle was found
similar to the one that had been given
Casey when he left Battle Mountain.
The evidence is strong but circum-
stsntial, and the fact that an enmity
existed between the two men gives
additional color to it.

During a big storm at Mercur, Utah,
two weeks ago, w. G. Adamson, a
prospector, met with a peculiar expe-
rience. He was working in the bottom
Of q ifty-foot shaft when q storm came
up, and his partner, who was on top,
told him he had better come out. He
refused. saying he was better off there
than on top. His partner sought shell
ter in q clump of trees q short distance
of, and soon water, mud and boulders
were pouring down the canyon. Soon
it began running into the shaft, and
Adamson was kept busy treading
water, lodging rocks and bowling for
help. His partner finally heard him
and hoisted him out, aid before the
storm was over the shaft had twenty
feet Of mud, water and rock in il.
