RED MEN SEEK REVENGE
Genesee Valley Indians Are Set
ting Up Old Scores.
Fear War May Now Extend
TO Them.

Quincy, Cal, Nov. i6.-An Indian ven
detta, which has already resulted in five
deaths, is being waGed between factions
of red inen in the GeDesee Valley.
Since last Saturday scarcely a day has
passed without a murder being reported,
aud il is feared that the trouble has but
commenced, and that tue rival bands will
continue their work Of vengeance until one
is exteriniuated or the State authorities
send troops to the scene.
The arrival of au Indian runner from the
valley bringing further int diligence is
awaited with great anxiety, as it1s almost
certain that he viii convey the news of fresh
crimes, and IL is possible that in the heat
OF the feId the reds viii not spare the white
settlers
The old feud between the rival bands
was reopeDed last Saturday. An Indian
called China Frank, employed on the
Hossckus ranch, was killed by Honey
: Lake Indian, whose brother was killed in
Lassen County, some four years ago, by
Frank. The following day Bob Smith, an
Indian and partner of China Frank, killed
a Honey Lake brave in Genesee Valley.
1t Is reported that another Indian was shot
and badly hurt in this same affray, but
full particulars have not been received.
Another outbreak occurred on Monday
night at Genesee, in which two Indians
were killed. THRU is missing, and is
presumed to have been killed.
This is the elimination OF an old feud be-
tween the Honey Lake and Indian Valley
Indians. and the natives around American
Valley express fear that the Honey Lakes
will cross the mountains and attack them.

CHEERFULNESS.

Chrerfulness is great tonic
1t is light and air to our mortal ma
ture; and to be without it is to be with
out something that answers to the
mind for what clothing and shelter
are to the body.
Yet it is not, in its noblest sense,
spontaneous, or a mere attribute;
there is a conscious desire and an eff
fort to be SO.
For true cheerfulness does not turn
the back on the evils of life; neither
is it the selfish, II care for nobody
of the Miller of the Dee.
There is happiness of no genuine
kind in such indifference; it is only
pressing down the pedal that deadens
all the tones of life.
Neither does Sydney Smiths advice
to take short views OF life" express
it.
For cheerfulness does not refuse to
look forward, because it is the peculi-
arity of brave soul-a soul that has
no present bugbears it cannot face,
and none behind it that it cannot turn
upon,
Cheerfulness never broods.
Ii a trouble or vexation can be help
ed, it looks at once for the remedy,
eSAo ~ IL ~ SoLAiob OC MCiRCAS
accepts the inevitable as the brave ac-
cept calamity, quietly, with calmness
and resignation.
Cheerful people are busy people.
Cheerful people value whatever is
their own; they do not disparage eth
er their work or their position.
Cheerful people have no mysteries
in secrets; for cheerfulness is like sun
light-it illumines the darkest cor
nerS.
Constant laughter is not cheerful
ness it is more likely to be the express
sion of folly.
Send us hence a thousand miles from
IL face always parading itself in smiles
and giggling.
Anybody can laugh; but to look
bright, with all the muscles of the
countenance at rest, betokens glad
acceptance of life and all its duties

and making the best of them.

There came flood of light, flush of bloom,
And wings of birds and echoes of their song
Bore every thought in cadence sweet along

And sweet May paled and sighed MY life is

And bluShng let her hand clasp close on mine

And all the golden sunlight rained its gold
On treSses bright rs any ray they hold,
And all the fervent splendor of the day
Wore fairer splendor then in sky and ray
Of Summer.
For what is earth, if love be not our day?
And what is love, if love care not to stay,
And staying steal our hearts in dreamless reStf
And resting thus, who dreams and is not blest
