Land Jumper Killed.

Friday, the 9th inst. Charles f..
Pearson, the Justice OF the Peace at
Mardis. Elko county, shot and killed
J.. Charles Graf, as q result OF an at
tempt of Graf and one J. II. Call to
jump the ranch owned and occupied
by Mr.. Pearson since about the first
Of August, 1886. Immediately after
the killing Mr.. Pearson started for
Elko and surrendered himself to the
Sheriff.
The Independent says that Mr..
Pearson has been a resident Of Elko
county for the last nine years and has
always borne a good reputation as a
quiet, peacesble citizen. He keenly
feels the position in which he is placed,
but has no fears Of the final outcome
Of the trouble. He has the sympathy
and support OF all law abiding citizens.
Graf, the dead man, has been a
notorious character in that county for
a number Of years. Before coming to
Elko county he murdered young Shan
non near Steamboat Springs, Washoe
county, in a dispute over a mine. Es-
Gaping punishment for this crime he
developed into a genuine desperate.
Before leaving for Mardis the first of
last week, he made threats against Mr..
Pearson and others in Mardis and
boosted Of what he intended to do on
his return.

The following from the Carson News
should be read by the young people
who are so fond Of joking, regardless
of results:
Sunday evening at the Presbyterian
church when Roy Sprague rose to per-
form his part Of the services one of his
companions in the gallery pulled his
chair back a few inches and, failing TO
look around when he sat down, he fell
TO the floor, striking the back OF his
head a terrific blow and injuring his
spine. Roy took the joke (O good
naturally, but in a very short time he
went down stairs. After the services
it was discovered that he was unable
to walk. Friends assisted him to get
home, but he said nothing TO the home
folks until the following morning, when
il was found that he was really in a
precarious condition. II occurs to the
average mind that a church is the last
place In the world where practical
jokes should have sway, and that a
young person 10 years old would be
above such silly jokes as the one men,

Tn. weed and the Rose.


Lorimer Stoddard, the actor-drsm-
stist, has written q charming little
song, for which a very dainty and
pretty air has been made by George
Alison, says the New York Mail and
Express. II Is published in sheet
form for the piano, and sings well.
The words are as follows:
A little weed grew At the foot Of . rose,
And they both breathed the soft Sum-
mel air.
But the little weed sighed as IL looked 81
the rose,
For the rose was 30 tall and 30 fair.
Al sunset the little weed trsmblingly
spoke,
And told OF lite love to the rose,
But the rose did not hear. for the Ian
gusge Of weeds
IL Q language q weed only knows.
When the little weed weps. washed the fair
roses feet,
And the rose was refreshed for the night,
The songs OF the morning birds opened
her heart,
And she lifted her head to the light.
Then taller she grew, and her green
leaves spread wide,
Till they shut out the sunlight and air;
So the little weed died 81 the foot OF the
rose,
And the rose never knew II was there.

James F. Dennis arrived in Austin
on Mondays train. His visit was for
the purpose Of attending to the matters
and papers in the Vaughan case. He
6led all papers and served q notice OF
appeal to the Supreme Court. The
warrant OF execution had been re-
ceived by the Sheriff some days ago,
and by this order of the Court the
death penalty was to be inflicted on
Friday, the 9th instant, but now that
Mr.. Dennis has perfected his appeal,
the matter must stand In allegiance
until the Supreme Court acts.
1t was impossible owing to the cir
cumstances over which Mr.. Dennis
had no control, to have the matter set
tied on the Goth Of last month, andthe
Court granted an extension OF time
until the 3lst ultimo, and then at de-
PENDANTS request granted an addi-
tionsl extension Of five days.
Ii will with all speed be submitted
to the Supreme Court and We judge
that body will act as early as possible
in the matter.-Austin Reveille.

A @ Industry.

An Austin Reveille reporter was in
formed the other day that q man by
the name OF Reese was engaged in
killing wild horses in the Edwards
creek range for the purpose Of getting
the hides and tallow. 1t is said that
the hides bring 50 80 and the tallow
when tried out into oil, is worth
81 80 per pound. The horse oil for
light machinery Is said to be far supe-
rior to lard oil, as it does not gum up,
but will not last as long as lard oil.
II the above statement Is correct, 1t
will prove to be very beneficial to
stockmen, and net a coed income to
any man who goes into the business.
Many ranges throughout this State
contain thousands Of wild horses
| which are not worth the price OF
catching, and as they only eat up the
feed from cattle and sheep, the sooner
the ranges are depopulated Of the wild
horses the better for all concerned.

Typhoid at DeLarmar.g

The report here on Monday that two
developed cases Of typhoid fever x
listed at DeLamar caused some talk.
Yesterday it was further stated that
twelve cases OF indisposition existed,
the symptoms being very similar to
those experienced by the present ty-
phoid patients, before they were taken
down. If this be true, the situation is
serious and calls for prompt and yigor-
GUS sanitary measures by the DeLamar

The human puzzle struck Washing
ton the other day. His name is Nix
beno, or Harry Beno, Of Port Of Spain,
Trinidad, and he is en- route TO New
York, where, he declares, he has been
offered ga, 600 and ticket back TO Cuba
for letting the doctors amputate his
left arm in the interest Of science. The
human puzzle is a short, stocky-look-
ing knight Of the road, and his great
specially is self-torture and mutilation.
He sticks pins and needles in any part
OF him he can reach, and he is deco
rated all I'VE with scars inflicted by
obliging individuals who at his request
have experimental on him. The puz-
zle says he has no physical sensibilities
and no blood in his body. This last is
very thoroughly disproved by astrong.
healthy pulse at the wrist, but the for
me- one might believe from the fact
that he sticks darning needles through
his tongue and hat pins through both
sides Of his jaws, while he invites any
one who is interested and skeptical to
run a long bonnet pin through his BIZ
ceps or his leg or any part Of his body
they choose.
He has a hypodermic syringe needle
that he has fixed up for a cigarette
holder, and this he thrusts through his
windpipe and smokes q cigarette with
his mouth shut. He declares that he
does not mind being burned and shows
a number OF scars which he says are
from recent electrical experiments.
The puzzle is shy a third finger on his
left hand. This. he says, was ampu-
tated in New Orleans just to show that
he would not bleed, and the proposed
amputation which he says is to take
place at Bellevue Hospital in New
York will be the consummation Of a
long and interesting public career.
After that the puzzle says he will walk
back TO New Orleans on stills for a
wage and sail for Cuba to enjoy in an
afluent old age the fruits Of his youth
ful travel and adventure. Beno says
that he is a half caste ~Spaniard, his
mother being Fan Englishman,' but
he looks the pure article Of Bowery
A~mericanism and bears on his arm a
number Of patriotic emblems in tat
tooing.-National Recorder.

battle with n Devil Fish.

SAN FRANCISCO, August S.-The Gig
lilo brothers, who " the fishing
boat Salvador, had a lively battle with
a devil fish thirteen feet long a few
days ago off the Farallone Islands. All
that is left Of the monster is now
hanging in the fish market in this city.
The men were fishing for rock cod
when one OF them suddenly felt a
tremendous strain on his line. Inch
by inch the men slowly pulled in the
line until the fish's waving tenacles
shot through the air and the men
realized they had caught something
they did not want. Then they pitched
the line away and tried to escape,
but ii was to late. The angry devil
fish clapped a six-foot feeler over the
side Of the boat and in two minutes
the men were fighting for their lives,
knowing that their only hope OF es-
cape lay in stunning the creature. One
OF the men grabbed a Ratchet and
waited for a chance TO deal a crushing
blow. Once he struck a blow, but the
blow seemed to have little or no effect.
All OF the time the boat was rocking
furiously and one lurch sent Joe CYCLIC
in the blazing eye Of the enraged fish.
A tentacle shot around him and in an
instant he was entangled in three Of
the monsters hideous defenders and
making the hardest fight he ever had
for his life. At this point his brother
struck the fish a blow with a club,
which stunned IL for a moment and
then he cut its throat.
