The Carson Appeal says that in spite
of Mr.. Rafferty's attempt to prevent
the race between the Capital City
Wheelmen of Sacramento, and the
Carson team, for the championship of
the coast, the race will take place on
Sunday, and will be a hummer. Hill
ton and Wing will not ride, however.
Last Sunday some mechanics took
the fire engine to pieces, and found
stray bolt under one of the valves of
the pump, and one nut loose, bobbing
around inside the cylinder. The OBJ
structions were removed, and with the
assistance of lot of Indians and four
or five citizens, the machine was tried
and found to work perfectly, throwing
a good stream. She is all ready now
for business.

An Italian laborer, whose name we
have not learned, was taken with
cramps while bathing at Blue Lakes
Friday evening, and was drowned. He
was seen to throw up his hands by n
man who was out on the lake in boat,
but the boatman was unable to reach
him in time to render any assistance.
The man went down in about twenty
feet of water, and as it was late in the
evening, his body was not recovered
until the next morning. The dead
man had friends in Jackson, Amador
county, CAL, and the remains were
taken there for interment.
Chas. Kinds, of Kinds Hot Springs,
in Smith Valley, lost nineteen head of
cattle recently in manner not fully
understood. The animals were prob
ably poisoned by eating some poison
GUS weed. Thirteen of the animals
were found dead in one place near the
stream of water flowing out of Red
Canyon. Mr.. Kinds thought perhaps
the water was poisoned by the tailings
from the concentrating plant at the
Winters mine, but it is probable that
the cattle fed upon some poisonous
plant and then fastened to the creek
for drink, where they died.

who showed here last week, and whose
strong point was the harmony in their
songs, seems to have used up its entire
stock of harmony on the stage. 1t is
said that they we're anything but har-
monious after they left here, on their
way south. The woman known as the
Jewish Creole, we are told, came to
blows with the head man of the con-
Germ. In the first round the man re-
ceived swat over the solar plexus,
which put him out, but when he re-
covered he proceeded to regulate
things in the camp in good style, chas-
tizing the woman until she promised
to be good.
