Prince Rupert, the Buccaneer." by
Cutcliffe Hyne, is a story with the dash
ing Rupert of the Rhine whom Crom-
wells Ironsides hated so cordially. for
hero, and the scene is laid in the West
Indies. People who, like the infant Tod
die, like their romances dyed with blood
will be satisfied with this one, for there
is gore on nearly every page; when it is
not the hero's or the enemy's ii is that
of the slain cattle which are transformed
into "buccan' or cured meat. There is a
girl in the story, but she furnishes no love
interest except to herself, being attached
TO the Prince in the capacity of secre-
tary. and. marvellous to read keeping her
sex wholly unknown to him. This rather
strains the credulity of the critic, sated
though he be with melodramas and girl
heroines in mems clothes, for be it re-
membered that the inhabitants of Hispa-
niola were at that time mostly pirates,
and the West Indies are hot islands in
summer, and a more unlikely place for the
preservation of a disguise of this kind
could hardly have been selected; moreover,
il seems to do nobody any good. What is
the use of spelling good adventure story

Death of Joe Pete.
The Indian Murderer Shot by His
Brother

The most interesting news of the
week in this section was the killing of
Joe Pete, the Indian murderer, in Al
pine county about 10 O'Clock last Mon
day night, at point about three miles
southwest of Markleeville. The In
dams held consultation at Blue
Lakes and decided that Joe Pete had
caused trouble enough and must give
himself up to the authorities. Pete's
brother and other Indians We're sent
to notify Pete. They found him at
his fathers camp and told him of the
decision of his tribesmeD, but Pete re-
fused to comply with their wishes, and,
in a quarrel which followed, was shot
and killed by his brother. 1t is said
that after few words with the Indian
posse, Pete was called out of the camp.
He came out without his rifle and was
shot twice in the back.
The next day Pete's body was taken
to Markleeville where an inquest was
held and the body buried,
1t appears that the Indians concluded
that Joe Pete was 2 menace to por.
ton of their tribe at least, and decided
to have the white people take care OF
him. But Pete was SO treacherous
that his own brother was afraid to
parley with him, and shot him, rather
than take the chances of being killed
himself. 1t is reported that the Indians
We're instructed by the Indian author
tiles to deliver Pete to the authorities
at Marlzleeville, alive if they could,
but dead if they must.

Arrest of a Swindler.

w. F. Aldridge, arrested here Satur-
day night and charged with defraading
a couple of Renoites out $50, by means
of worthless checks, is evidently a
pretty slick customer He tuned pianos
at Winnemucca, but it is not known
whether he threw any pocketbooks
out of tune, as the people there who
part with their money foolishly are
prone to keep the matter secret. But
the ,Sftuer State says: las Aldridge is
what is commonly known as pro-
fessional 'grafter," it is reasonable to
believe that he would not have made
such an extended stay here had he not
found the field fruitful for his opera
tions.o
Commenting on the Reno job, the
Elko Independent says "Aldridge is
undoubtedly the slick rooster who did
up the Elko oil company. 1t smacks
Of his way of doing business"
At the time Of his arrest Aldridge
tried to bluff Constable King of Gard
nerville because he had no warrant of
arrest, but it didn't work, and the of
ficer took his man in handouts to tune
the bars of the Genoa Jail, landing him
there at l o'clock in the morning. The
next day he was taken to Reno to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
