A man named V. Lartigue, for MANY
years resident of Clinton, but now
living near the Gwin mine, came to
jackson last Saturday, and reported
that his trunk has been opened, and
$500 in gold coin and two gold watches
taken therefrom. The burglar had got
the booty by saving through the iron
fastenings of the trunk. One of the
watches was lady's timepiece, which
at one time had been repaired by one of
the jewelers. in town. The owner came
to Jackson for the purpose of finding

Pete Dragich, one of the lessees of
the Farrell mine near Middle bar, was
the victim of an unfortunate mistake
last week. He had some 600 pounds
of crushed ore which he wanted shipped
to Jackson, preliminary to its being
sent to San Francisco for treatment.
He hired rig from the livery stable
and brought it to town without the
least effort at conceaIment. He had
the boxes dumped out on Broadway,
and was in the act of packing one to a
nearby boarding house, when he was
taken in tow by the constable, and
locked up. The shipment had been
reported to the Gwin mine, and the ar
rest was made on a suspicion that the
ore was the product of that mine. An
examination showed there was no basis
for theory, and the man was promptly
liberated.
