Young 0uinan Free.

On Monday last the ormsby county
Grand Jury took up the charge against Ju.
liam Guinan for the killing Of United
States District Attorney Jones a few days
ago. They only had the matter under con.
sideration for . short while when they
determined to ignore the charge, and
young Guinsn was set at liberty. District
Attorney MCGOWAN proposes to bring the
matter before another Grand Jury. This
Is not deemed wise by the majority Of the
western papers, because of the apparent
public feeling in favor Of the boy, and IL
lie not thought probable that . conviction
can be secured. There are two sides 70 the
question. however. and many are strongly
in favor OF lite being again considered By
another Grand Jury.

THE CA d CONTEXT.



The famous will contest still occupies
the attention Of Judge Cofee's Probate
Court at San Francisco. Considerable
evidence has been introduced during
the past week by the contesting step
daughters. but none o: IL Of any ap-
parent Importance. The following 40
count taken from Wednesdays Ex-
aminer contains the latest OF the case. II
simply shows a desire on the part Of the
contestants TO blacken the reputation Of
Judge Fitzgerald. II is moi very clear
what bearing such testimony can have on
the real Issues involved in this contest:
In the contest before Judge Cofey over
the will Of John s. Ospron yesterday DR..
Z. L. Perrault testified that last year Mr..
ospron told him that he had spent money
In purchasing votes for Judge A. L. Fitz.
gerald when that gentleman was 9 can-
didate for the bench at Eureka. Nevada.
Mr.. Capron also informed his physician
that Judge Fitzgerald once asked him 10
become plaintiff In . suit. The Judge
wished to recover some property but did
not choose to figure IS plaintiff In Q case
that would be tried before himself and
wished Cspron TO act in his stead. He
would then hear and deter mine the case.
The doctor remarked that he did not
place any credence In these statements, as
Cspron was. in bis opinion, demented a.
the time they we're made.
When Mrs. Eesrney. one of the STEP
daughters Of Cspron. was on the witness
stand she spoke about his utterspoes con-
corning Fitzgerald. In addition to she
story recited by DR.. Perrault she said
that Mr.. Cspron one day was in . hurry
to catch the train to 60 10 Nevada. The
reason he gave for his haste was that be
wanted TO see Judge Fitzgerald before q
case in which he was interested was de-
cided. SO that the judgment might not be
against him.
DR.. Perrault testified that Capron was
OF unsound mind for months before the
will was made.

Gum Girls.

II is q mistake to suppose that country
papers have no very powerful influence
among their readers. Two weeks ago q
Reno paper printed . brief item In which
10 said that II was the belief among men
that any girl who chewed gum on the
streets might be examined with the GER
tainsy Of finding her stockings half down.
Since this publication not . girl has been
chewing gum on the streets OF the town.
though II must have been q straight bluff.
