Wounds Probe Fatal.

The sad intelligence was received last
evening that Harry Diamond, the boy
who was accidentally shot at Wash0e
Lake a week agO last Sunday, mad died.
1t will be remembered that the deceased
was taken to San Francisco, where every
effort Of the most skillful surgeons were
made to save the boys life. When he
received his injury at WashOe Lake he
displayed the utmost grit and when it
was thought advisable to take him to
Carson his only hope seemed to he that
his mother would be there to meet him.
He doubtless realized the serious nature
of his wound more fully thar any one
else. and when his brother was preparing
to 60 after assistance he remarked, Il am
gone, brother: Kiss me before you go"
and - his brother started away Il strong
hr"tharly affection prompted him to call
him beck 10 KISS h.Iu again. The de-
ceasrj was a manly little fellow and was
held in the highest esteem 10y all. His
remains will arrive here to-day and the
community sympathizes with Mi. and
Mrs. Diamond in their bel eavement.-

Sad News From Cavite.

The following extract from a letter
written by J. p. Cooper, dated Cavite.
Philippine Islands, February 4th, to
Chas. Grunditz of this place will no
doubt be Of great interest to the many
friends of VIII Bruce. who have been
anXiously awaiting further news con-
corning his Disappearance:

Will Bruce and another one of our boys
by the name OF Honeynun, got a pass
to 60 over to san Rogue, which is a
native town and in the hands Of tho
insurgents lthcy got the pass last Mon
day and this is Saturday, and were
taken prisoners as spies.
AT first the Insurgents denied anv
knowledge of them. We found where
they we're in prison, ana Captain Lin
scott went over and told an Inoureent
officer that he knew where they were
and he wanted them liberated, which
they promised to do. Now they say
they are going to hold them and deal
with them a. spic-, It has been in the
hands Of General Otis for 4 day or two.
Don't know what he is going to do
about it.
sour boys, and in fact all the SOL
dierS on the island are terribly worked
up over it. We are afraid they have
been made away with. If they have,
and We have any trouble with the In
surgents, God help every black B.
that we can draw a bead on. All it
needs nov is for the order to be given
to march against them, and if the bows
have been hurt they will be- terribly re-
venged. We are hoping for the best,
but cant find out anything definite.
The Insurgents claim they were too in
quisitive and were asking too many
questions.

Buck Mine Bonded

Mr.. Bednark Of Humboldt, a wit
ness in the Murphy case, was in town
Yesterday. Mr.. Beduark says that
the Buck mine near Humboldt House
has been bonded for $4,000 to East

mountains about four miles from the

ed the fabulous value of $40, 900 a

Private Andrew Nicholson of the

place them on exhibition and sale.
Abe left for the city last evening and

Of the Washoe Indian is considered the

The veterans of the civil war have ex-

since forgotten the foe that fought them
in the open for a cause they then be-
lieved to be just, they recall with vivid
dlstlnctness the rattle of the copperhead
in their rear. Naturally these heroes of

favor on the modern copperhead who is
now trying to paralyze the strong right
arm Of the government in the Philip

Resolved, That we denounce the trail
t0rous junta of so-called educators
united with a handful of political dema-
gpgues which is giving substantial aid
and comfort to our enemies In the war,
and which is prolonging the war in the
Philippines n increasing the daily
death-roM of our army.
Resolved, That in common with every
citizen of the United States in whose
veins runs one drop of true American
blood and in whose heart dwells one
spark of patriotism, we hereby record

A HELENA SENSATION.

After the Merchants National bank in
Helena had been closed through the ma
chinations of it's enemies, despite the
ability with which it's interests had been
handled, it was discovered that $4,000
had been stolen from a safe deposit vault
to which the Common brothers held the
key. Tine public at once jumped to the
conclusion that some one connected with
the bank had stolen the money, and
much criticism has been wasted on .inno-
cent parties.
Now comes a sensation in the shape of
an affidavit from a young lady to the
effect that Charles Common stole the
money himself, though a judgment
against the bank had been ecured. 1t
appears hat Mr.. Common overlooked a
promise to marry the young lady, and
has been sued for breach of promise.
She supplements her claim for damages
by the affidavit respecting he safe de-
post vault, alleging that the secret was
confided to her by Common. The latter
has been placed under arrest, and some
of the gentlemen who have heretofore
criticised the bank officials are indus
triously hedging.
