IN TANGLINC
THE WEB.
The MurdeTers of Mr., Osnces
BieWett Traced TO Earth
by Aid of Detective
Sullivan.

On TIE 18th day OF last July. a
most grewsome find was made
by two negroes of the Trinity
neigh5orhood, when they STUN
bled over the body of Mr.. Dancey
Blewett, the young son of Mr..
Claude Blewett, lying cold in
death. with bullet hole through
his left breast and a gash across
the side OF his head TO tell the
tale of the horrible crime which
had been committed.
Mr.. Btewett had left his home
at an early hour Monday mora
ing, saying that he was going 10
Columbus 10 spend the day. At
sunset he had not returned. but
his relatives thought that he
would stay over night with a
friend here, and the first thing
10 alarm them was the finding of
the horse, which the young man
had ridden, by a negro living IA
the vicinity. When the horse
was brought home riderless, foul
play was immediately suspected,
and a search for the young man
was inaugurated. About rine
O'Clock Tuesday morning, July
18th. his body was found in an
open field about one mile from
his fathers housn.
Certain evidence was brought
out at the eoroner's inquest
which tended to place the re-
sponsibility of the shooting upon
Matte Buchanan, a young negro
woman living in the neighbor-
hood, and she was ordered held
TO await the action of the grand
jury
Shed Jennings, a negro in the
vicinity, was called upon to tes-
tify at the preliminary trial of
Matte Buchanon on Aug. 9TH,
and as he knew too much to know
nothing about the killing, Deputy
Ben Irving arrested him and he
was placed in Jail 10 await the
action of the grand jury. From
other evidence brought forth il
was thought that another negro .
named Jim Dill, preacher. also
had a hand in the affair, but his
abouts were unknown.
Sheriff Eggleston started on a
still hunt for him, and after as
pretty piece of detective work
as was ever carried 70 a success

Dill near Birmingham, Ala, and
brought him to jail here. Missile

a Notable incident

In our material growth ana
prosperity two important factors
are to be reached and with labor
and capital. The latter is appar-
emily more easily commanded and
managed than the or m r.
Though proverbially timid, and
painfully scarce at times, as this
sanctum we'll knows. capital may
always be found if the invest
ment promises we'll and con-
fidence is established. While the
man of means can dispense with
the care incident to manufactur-
ing enterprises by seeking less
remuneratiye investments and
the laborer must use his works
to sustain himself and family,
yet We find the capitalist more
amendabie ID reason and less in
elined TO withdraw from the
army that goes TO make our
country great than he who knows
he will suffer hunger and all
manner Of privation unless the
work goes on. No section Of the
United States SO fully exempli-
fies this condition as here.
When with a full larder and
some money j;ngling in their
pockets, our negro grows indif-
ferent about work, taking no
thought of the future, of possible
sickness and certain old age, but
imprudently spends his means
and with let us eat, drink and
be merry for tomorrow we die
creed he refuses work till hun
ger, cold or necessity in some /
form pinches him and he reluc-
family takes up his task again.
Year after year this goes on till T
increasing age and its accumu
lated ilis adds his name to the .
pauper list. Patiently has the
white man faced this labor prob /
lem. seeking to uplift his black
helper, 10 encourage him in the
laying by for rainy day. By
legislation, example and precept
has he sought 10 implant the
of enterprise and thrift
beneath his woolly pate. As
long as the operations of capital
and labor were confiaed to the
farm, where Nature is the gen
erous time keeper and banker,
much latitude could be allowed,
and the wide variance between
work done as it should be and as
It was, did not so sensibly affect
the prosperity of the South. La
ter when the enterprises, having
ung pay-rolls and managed by
astute business men, came among
ls, a different condition confronts
Is. No idle, careless workman
wishing TO knock-off for a few
lays and returning at will can be
allowed, for the whir and roar of
machines must not stop, il one
let of men are not able to come,
another must be had Quick to
grasp the exegiences of the hour {

The Indian pitcher, Dust-a-day-sokie being hit on the coco by a pitched ball, but he was soon revived and was able to take his place with the other members of his tribe on the bleachers. After the acci- dent, La-la- -hokie-pokie went into the box and did the twirling. The game was won and lost half a dozen times by the white savages, but they finally cinched it by the score of 15 to IA. Bird Henderson deserves a great deal of credit for pitching a fine game for the winning team and Messrs. Kitchens, Kellner, Ehemenn and MacNulty also deserve special mention. The Indians also played a very good game and are very anxious for another chance and it has been arranged for next Sunday.

ELEMENTS OF LIFE.

Ten years ago the injection of salt water as Q. restorative to patients dy- ing from loss of blood aroused general interest. The discovery of this quality or salt water probably suggested to the French savant, M. Quinton, a long and patient research concerning sea water, the conclusion of which throws unexpected light on and adds support to the Darwinian theory of evolution.
 M. Quinton maintains that sea water is the natural source from which. as Professor Haeckel believes, elementary bodies rise which develop into all spe- cies, including the human. The en- Vironment wherein the anatomical ele- ments of living creatures exist is neith- CT more nor less than a marine one. Our tissue and cells continue to exert their functions in a fluid where the composition bears the closest resem- blance to that of sea water.
 Hitherto the number of elements en- tering into the composition of the liv- ing body was considered as about fif- teen. M. Quinton has shown the exist ence of traces Of at least fourteen oth- CTS, which are also found in sea water such as copper, lead, silver and gold. Further, if an animal is bled to the

 AT THE REllEF-George Hamlin came in yesterday from the Relief mine where he is engaged in building the house that is to enclose the reduction plant The rafters of the building are now being placed and the structure will soon be as near finished as possible be- fore the machinery is set. A part of the machinery was shipped from Los Angeles on the 18th of last month and is now in the M. & P. yards here. Oth- CT portions of the plant it is expected will be shipped from Cudaway Wis, to- day. The work of placing the mach inery will be done as fast as possible and MT. Hamlin says he thinks the re- duction plant will be ready for opera tion about the middle of July. If he does not then begin turning out gold bricks he will be very much disappoint- ed.
 CEMENT MATERIALS.-Wea are in- debted to Right -of-Way Agent Randall of the Phoenix & Eastern, for sam- pies of gypsum and silicious clay from San Pedro, near Mammoth, says the Florence Blade. There is no end to this material in that locality, and ex- perts who have thoroughly tested f say it will make the highest grade portland cement. A large belt of it adjacent to the line of the Phoenix & Eastern, has been located and a com pany will be organized to utilize the material in the manufacture of Port land cement. It is only short dis tance from the San Carlos dam site and when the government gets ready to build that great dam, it can put up it's own plant on the railroad or con- tract for the manufacture of cement there at a small cost.

THE CASTLE CREEK SEASON
The One Just Closed Gives Grea,
 Promise of the Future.

Mir. w. NJ. Sell, manager of the hotel at Castle Creek Hot Springs spent yes terday in the city. The past season was the first MT. Sell had charge of the springs and his management has greatly increased the popularity of that pleasant resort. He has had a long and very successful experience in the management of such hotels, having been at Advance on the road to the Yosemite for several years, and his hostelry there became one of the best and most favorably known in that region of famous resorts.
 The last season at Castle Creek, which closed on May 1 was the best. It was late in opening, but the activity which followed made up for the post ponement of business. The patrons Of the springs were for the most part persons from the east who desired rest, a magnificent climate and surroundings and the reviving effect of those famous waters. Some of them had spent win . ters there before. but many of the guests of the past season were there for the first time, but not for the last
