TENNEssEE's PARDNER TONIGHT.
The Tennessee's Pardner company
comprising fourteen people, all clever,
too, arrived in the city this morning and
will appear at the Duncan opera house
tonight.
This play, suggested by Bret Harts's
popular romance. makes no attempt
to ideafize or transfgure human nature,
nor is 1t play of deep motive and en-
tangled plot. 1t is comedy-drama of
absorbing interest, a tender and diversi-
fed picture of life in. the Nevada sand
hills just as Bret Harte found 1t there
Humor and sentiment are effectively
commingled and the play will be set
lie an admirable frame OF. scenic en-
belIishment.

her mother, and the pistol was dis
charged. The wounded child fell into
the arms of her mother, and the boy
exclaimed: 81 did it, but 1 did not
mean to shootn'
Captain Bloom and the mother of
deceased were also examined, and their
testimony was substantially the same
as has been published.
The post norton examination of the
corpse revealed the fact that the A
caliber pistol bullet had entered the
left side of the girls neck and ranging
upward, had passed entirely through
and came out at the point of the Jaw,
shattering the bones and severing the
arteries. causing speedy death from loss
of blood.
After hearing all the evsdence and
feeling satisfied that some proba bility
existed that a crime had been commit
ted, Justice Spencer remanded the de-
feudent to jail to await the action of
the grand jury.
The Mexican family claimed that the
weapon with which the bloody deed
was done was the property of friend
and had been left at their house for
safe keeping. This led Justice Spen-
Ger to remark that entirely too many
deaths had occurred recently among
Mexicans of the lower class, owing to
the fact that they keep loaded weapons
lying around the house.

CATION of the grand jury this morning.
an Indictment against Felix Guerrero,
the Youthful slRye err of Vasilia Mendez,
was returned.
The grand jury apparently thought
that strong circum stantial evidence
existed tending to show that Felix had
shot his niece with murderous intent,
and lost no time in indicting him for
murder.
The young defendant is still in the
county Jail and 1t is probable that he
will remain there until tried.

Wednesday night was held by Justice
Spencer Yesterday afternoon.
Several witness we're examined,
among them being the sister OF de-
ceased, whose testimony was probably
the most important given. for she saw
the bow shoot his niece and was fanni-
liar with the causes leading up to the
tragedy.
Witness said that she and her sister
had spread their pallet on the floor and
were preparing to retire. She was sit
ting on the pallet with her back to the
wall, but Vasilia was engaged in
spreading out the quilts which COM
prised the boys bed. The boy went to
a box or trunk and took the pistol
therefrom. He told the girl he intend
ed to kill her and fourished the
weapon.
The lad did not appear to be angry
or excited but seemed to be threatening
the girl for fun only. She cried out to
