The Englishmen all took shelter on the
steps OF a house just below the french
hospital. and Mr.. Booth. who had already
taken some excellent pictures OF the firing,
was about to TAX a snapshot Of the piers
when a ball struck him on the side of the
head. causing him to drop the camera and
stagger back into the doorway. The door
had been opened a crack and one of the
Englishmen had forced has foot into the
opening. Consequently when Mr.. Booth

and one-half hours suffering overwhelmingly
and unable to move hand or foot. The
people he was with did everything in their
power for him, but would not give him a
drop of water, for which he pleaded in

Marshall Had a Touch Time.

Grafton, N. d., Aug. o.
There was warm time in For

also runs a restaurant at that
place. undertook to throw one
of his boarders out of the place
and in so doing used his billy
and official authority. But he
should not have attempted to
do this as he ran up against
the wrong party. William
Moore is some kind of a scrap.
per himself, in fact he has ap-
peared in the ring on several
occasions, and it was only short
work for him to take care of
Mr.. Olson, authority, billy and
all. Olson had Moore arrested
and sent in a hurry call for
Sheriff Arnot, who arrived in
double quick time and took the
prisoner to Grafton for safe
keeping.
The hearing was held before
Justice w. r. Fleming and
there it was demonstrated that
Mr.. Moore was in no way to
blame and that he acted in self
defense. Mr.. Olson exhibited
his broken head, his club and
his official dignity, but as there
was nothing left of the latter,
the court ordered the prisoner
discharged and told him to do
better job next time.

STOCK MARKET

1t was another day of falling
prices on the San Francisco stock
and exchange board yesterday.
There seems to be no legitimate rea-
son why the stocks should not adj
vance instead of decrease. How
ever, the exchange is practically IN
control of men who can do mighty
near as they wish with the market
at this time. Withal, the day of
reckoning is coming and when it
comes it will reveal the merits of
the southern Nevada securities. Par
ticularly is this true of the Tono-
pah stock. There is not a listed
property on the board that is not
intrinsically worth considerable in
advance of what the quotations
