Fiend Ruins Young Girl and Tries 90
Murder Her Parents.
A horrible story comes from Sierra val
ley OF the ruin Of a young girl and the
attempted murder Of her parents by John
NJ. Mullins, agent Of the Equitable Life
Insurance Company, says the Reno
Journal. The girl in question is sixteen
year-old- Louise Eide, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. William EIDE. Mullins schem.
ed to get the girl away from home and
after taking several drinks Of whisky
drove out to the Eide place, drugged the
father of the girl and attacked him with
q sling made from an iron rod attached to
q rope, while Mr.. Eide was asleep. Mrs.
EIDE heard a noise in the room where her
husband had retired and rushed in only
to be given several blows on the head
with the same deadly instrument. She
ran from the house. half dazed, and after
wandering about for several hours reach
ed the Bates ranch and the alarm was
quickly spread through the valley.
Mullins, after leaving his victim for
dead, went back to Beckwith and was
subsequently arrested. He made no re.
sistence and would say nothing.
Should Mr.. EIDE die, which is not un-
likely, Mullins may be summarily dealt
with.
A dispatch to the Gazette states that
William EIDE died Wednesday, and that
Mrs. EIDE will recover.

James German Charged with SLAM
derfng w. q. Douglass.
From the Virginia Chronicle, October Is.
James German Of Gold Hill Was arrested
this morning on . charge Of criminal libel.
The complaint was sworn TO BY George
Noel. acting under instruction from w. G.
Douglass.
The cause OF Germans arrest was the
distribution about town Of . printed circu-
lar charging Mr.. Douglass with having
pslmed Of . check for $3.50 in payment OF
s6lS due German ss wages from the Justice
Mining Company.
The circumstances OF the case ere these:
| For SON months prior TO March, 1901.
| German was working in the Justice mine.
On March l OF that year the Justice CON-
pany sent . check for $3.50 for Gormsn's
wages. German worked until March IL,
when he had SOS more coming TO him. He
then lost his job and went to the Office OF
W. G. Douglass. who as superintendent OF
the Justice 81 that time, paid of the men.
An examination Of the books disolosed the
fact that German had coming to him s6lS.
He received his money, receipted for the
same in full and left the Office.
After an absence Of some duration he re-
turned and claimed that he had received
| only $3.50 and there was SOS more coming
10 him. Mr.. Douglass reminded him that
be paid him SOS in cash and showed him
his receipt for s6lS, the full amount due
him. The receipt is now in the possession
Of the Justice company. The books Of the
company also show that Douglass charged
the company with SOS cash advanced by
him to make up the s6lS due from the com.
pany 10 German. Fortified in this manner

Twentieth Century Band.

This famous musical organiza-
ton is to be here FOX n special mat
inee concert. There is no doubt
that DeBaugh is Past Grand
Master ia the art OF pleasing peo-
pie. His ideas are essentially orig
inal and novel. He has eliminated
from his programmes all of the old
stereotyped features which for
years have been popular with con-
cert bands. Every programme pre-
sented by DeBaugh is of distinct
novelty, and replete with new and
original ideas. which have been re-
ceived with acclaim by his audi
ence wherever be has appeared.
The great success so far achieved
by this band upon its tour can be
attributed chiefly 10 the fact that
they have succeeded in giving the
people distinctly new and novel
style Oh COuCtIt. dtu Que NulCli 10
infinitely superior to anything
heretofore presented by similar
organization.
Not only is DeBaugh's Band
composed of most skillful must
clans. but he carries in addition
large corps of vocalists, including
soloists and double quartette of
male voices. Fully one half of the
programme is vocal, and while the
soloists are all artists of reputation
and the standard high. the selec-
tons presented are mostly of the
popular variety. One of the great
est novelties ever introduced by
concert band. is Mr.. DeBaugh's
original conception, the Double
Megaphone Quartette and Chorus.
which has proved to be genuine
sensation wherever presented,
This Band will be here for spe-
cial matinee concert at the opera
