At s o'clock Monday evening, Jan

for his home, distant one-half mile. AT
the time there was tempestuous storm
of wind and rain and the night was as
black as the Imp of Satan is claimed to
be. In travelling the trail he, it is sup
posed, became bewildered, lost his
course and fell into an old mining shaft.
The hole contained twenty feet of
water, and in it Sullivan met death.
Next morning searchers hunted the
hills and brush for the missing man.
Nowhere could the disappearing man
be found. The seeking for Sullivan
was kept up through the week and on
Saturday, at noon, the body was dis
covered in the shaft. The funeral SER
vices were held Sunday and burial was
in the Odd Fellows Cemetery. De-

Republican, Placerville, January 11th
One day last week-on Tuesday we
believe-a heavy wind at the Big Can
yon mine demolished the building over
the chlorination works. 1t was not
torn to pieces but pushed over There
were five men inside of it at the time,
but the fallen building rested upon the
furnace inside of it and thus prevented
the men from being crushed, so that
no one was hurt. Phileas Cote went
down there few days ago TO repair
the damage. The wind seems to have
been quite violent on a line north and
south from Nashville, Big Canyon and
Gold Hill, but farther east it was hard
ly noticeable, evidently being confined
to a narrow belt of country.

WASHOE INDIANS WILL HELP
Joe Pete Will Likely Be Ar
rested Soon.
THOUGHT NOW TO Be IN LASSEN COUNTY
Indian Captains Want to Give Him
up, but Fear the Vengeance
of His Relatives.

At daybreak last Monday morning a
crowd of men from Carson valley and
Alpine county surrounded the Indian
camps at Woodfords, Markleeville and
tba Diamond Sawmill. A thorough
s.arch was made in all the camps for
Joe Pete, the Indian who killed Will
Dangberg on the 7th of last September,
but the Indian had been warned of the
coming of the searching party and the
search was unsuccessful.
After the men had examined every
roll of blankets in each of the camps
and we're convinced that Joe Pete had
skipped, an interview was had with
Captain Pete Mayo, and he was finally
persuaded to come to Gardnerville and
meet the other Captains of the Washoe
tribe. The four Captains held a meet
ing and consultation here Tuesday
with a number of prominent citizens of
Carson valley.
The Captains entered into an agree
ment with the whites to capture Joe
Pete within three weeks. They say
they do not know where he is at pres
ent; he may be in Washoe county, or
in Long valley, Lassen county, Cal,
but they promise to find him and give
him up to some white man in Alpine
county. This white man, Captain
Mayo says, will probably be an ac-
quaintance of Joe Pete, and will be
selected by Pete to take him to Genoa
or Carson. The citizens present at the
meeting agreed that Joe Pete should
have fair and impartial trial and that
good lawyers would be employed to
defend him.
The Captains appear to be very much
in favor of bringing Joe Pete to justice
and say they will put forth every effort
to catch him within three weeks. They
seem confident that they will get him.
Captain Pete Mayo is Joe Pete's
uncle. He says that he wants Joe Pete
to give himself up and wants him pro-
L
Captain and Joe Pete are not on friend
ly terms, having had some trouble at
Blue lakes last summer. The Captain
says he has not seen Pete since the
murder, but sent word to him twice to
give himself up.
The white people have broken into
Captain Mayo's camp twice while look
ing for Joe Pete, and the Captain does
not like it. He says the trouble will
last for twenty years if Joe Pete is not
caught, and that the Indians will find
him now and have him give himself up.
Joe Pete has large number of rela-
tives and the Captains do not like to
hunt him down for fear they will get
into serious trouble themselves. But
they are confident the best thing Pete
can do is to give himself up, and say
they can persuade him to do so as soon
as they have chance to talk with him.
Although few are skeptical, many
white people believe the Captains can
control Pete and that they will cause
his arrest within the time limit. The
search for Pete is causing the Indians
great deal of trouble, and Pete is a
fugitive in the mountains in constant
fear of being taken. The leading In
dians seem to understand now that the
best thing Pete can do is to stand trial
for his crime and believe Pete will be of
the same opinion when he is consulted
and told that he will be given fair
trial. -Gardnerville Courier.

Thomas Prenton, who was employed
to chop wood on the McGuirk ranch,
west of town, for the Commodore mine,
met with rather serious accident last
Wednesday afternoon. He had felled
a tree and was limbing the same, when
his foot slipped and he fell forward up
on the blade of his AK, cutting a cash
across his left hand, its full width, just
back of the knuckle joints, and sever
ing couple of the tendons of his two
middle fingers. 1t is believed that he
will lose the use of a couple of his fin
gers. His wound is being attended to
by DR.. Holland. The accident is to be
deplored, as Mr.. Prenton had been out
of employment for considerab BILE length
of time and this was his first days
work.
]. P. Camou, the O'Byrnes Ferry
merchant, was at the county seat on
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week
He reports a great falling off of travel
at the Ferry since the Sierra Railroad
has been extended up into Tuolumne
county. Formerly large part of the
traffic of Tuolumne went through by
way of the Ferry, but now it goes by
rail by way of Oakdale. Although the
railroad has afforded an advantage in
rapid transportation, the rates are
very high and the cost for freight is
heavier than it used to be when hauled
by teams.
