threatened to kill every policeman when
he got out of the Jail. About 10 o'clock
Chief Walters heard a pistol shot in Hin
ton alley emanating from a negro pool
room. Investigating he saw two negroes
walking away hurriedly. He met NJ. r.
Jones. Jr. and deputized him to follow
them while he went around to head them
off. As the chief was passing through an
alley Edmund Johnson ran into his arms.
The chief drew his pistol and made the
negro throw up his hands. He had pis-
tol in the waist of his trousers, and it
turned out that the pistol belonged to
Jim Minson, who had fired it few min
utes before, Johnson having run ahead in
an endeavor to hide the weapon. While
the chief was arresting Johnson, Of
ficer Smith having come to his assistance,
Mr.. Jones came upon Minson, and the
latter showed fight, swearing that he
would have to be taken dead, and pulling
a bottle from his pocket tried to strike
Mr.. Jones. J. A. Wauchope came up
about that time and was followed by
Officer Blanton and the unruly negro
was taken to police headquarters. He will
have his trial tomorrow.

SHIPPING ORE.
Old Mining Section South Of Carson
is in Line,

is in Line.
Charley Taylor, who has been under
a doctors care in this city for cot
pie of weeks received some pretty
good news from his mines out south
He is interested in a copper claim
near the Mountain House and a lease
was given to couple miners few
weeks back. The new men started
shaft on the ledge and word came IN
day or so ago that they had hit it
rich. Assays from the samples sent
to town show over one hundred and
fifty dollars to the ton. The ore con-
tains 25 per cent copper and the rert
Of the values lie in gold and silver.
They have taken out six or seven tons
of this quality rock, and the samples
sent in last night runs even higher,
as there is more gold in the latest
find.
The mine is situated about mile
from Mountain House and not far FROM
the once famous Willard & Mcdonald
claim. In this property over two hun
dred thousand dollars was taken out
by two old men and they drank it up
about as fast as the mill could turn
the bullion out. The mill was a two
stamp affair and the mortor and the
stamps were abouS the size of an CIR
binary hand mOrtor and pestel, bu.
the returns from the milling was some
thing wonderful. 1t was not uncom-
mon to hang" up the stamps in CT
der to clean out the battery. as tho
gold was SO heavy that the screen
would clog and the amalgam hang on
to everything. The records of the.
Carson mint show over one hundred
thousand dollars from the little mill,
and it is the general belief that more
than that amount was stolen during
the working of the claim
The original owners followed the
| rich seams in dozen directions, but
| there was never any semhlance of real
| mining in their graund When the
rich seam gave out the owners closed
| up the affair and since that time little
| or nothing has been done at the mine.
The new find made by Taylor will
| attract more attention and as soon
| as the ore is taken out it will be ship
| ped to the smelters. 1t will not take
| all hands on velvet and the old camp
| will again flourish.
