A TRUNK THIEF ,
Ho Misses However n Kat lloll ol
Fred Brown , who is employed at the
Kaglo cheap house , came very near being
n heavy loser by a trunk thief , The
trunk was at Mrs. Evans'houso where
Brown boards. Sunday night ho put in
his trunk § 200 and about 5 o'clock yesterday -
torday morning on going lo work ho took
it out , Sometime between then and
six o'clock hia trunk was broken open
and several articles stolen
but the thief failed to got
the roll , which was probably what ho
most desired. Suspicion fell upon ono
Steve Carter who had worked with
Brown , and detective Ed. Bates started
in search for him. IIo found Carter
across the river in the depot nt Omaha
and arrested him and brought him back.
Carter had on his person n revolver
which belonged to him , but which ho had
kept in Brown's trunk , so that it looked
pretty clear that ho was the ono who wont
through the trunk.

Chicago I'rlbuuo. '
It waa in ft hard-looking basement sa
loon not a hundred miles from Deaplaincs
and West Madison streets that ono of the
proprietors was tilting on the edge of a
patched ami torn-pool table , dangling his
legs and holding forth to a small crowd of
dilapidated loafers , who laughed uproar-
otisly when "ho 'smiled and nudged each
other withknowinglookswhon.hoclonched
BOino statement with a foul expression
or oath. Business was evidently dull.
In ono corner sat a group of rough-look
ing men plajing cards and saluting every
trick taken with an execration. The
pipo-smoking tramps and thieves
stood in admiration around the
figure that was sitting on the
pool-tablo. "Yiz can jist bet your boots , "
ho cried , "that any man that has staid
around this corner for vz long's Oi have
don't need lo laru nawthin1 about any
fake or shkin-gamo that cin bo put up on
a sucker in any d part ov this United
States. O'ill chuck dice wid anny man.
O'ill shtack the kyards wid nnny man , an
O'ill play wid the three shells wid anny
man , an1 play him for a sucker foi.4 a thou
sand dollars a lick if ho's _ able to put up
the shugar. The wooda is full of blank
suckora , and ilVi just in this aamo part ov
Chicago that yiz can foind it out. "
"By , you'r right there. Patsy , "
patronizingly remarked a elay-pipo suck
er , -whoso shirt-collar nnd vest Vcro
completions by their absence , and whosu
ragged trousers were liold around his body
qy u narrow black leathuivb'eli ; .
"It was just the other noight , " contin
ued the pool-tablo orator , "that four fel
lows came in hero and wanted to shako
fortho "drinks , Two ov the fellows 1
know'd blaiikY well had no money , and
the other two liaH the boodle. "
"Guess the follows with Iho boodle
were the suckers , " laughed the chorus :
"You bet , " replied llm.pratpr. "Every
toimo them suqkcrs throw1,1 picked up-
the dice for the other follow , bu t nhljp
ped in the loaded joker as I guv them in
the box , and ov courdo they won. Oi
sometimes lot the other follows win and
didn't ring no joker , but that was just to
encourage them , and I made four or five
dollars out of them before they left , and
Oim a son of a gun if thny
know't it wasn't no square game because
ha ! ha ! they told mo they woz coin-
in' back soon to have Iheir rivinge. By
all Iho powers they'll qit it to ha ! hit !
Oi tell yiz. it takes a good nwnost man to
make a dacont llvln' oft them suckers
nowadays with that bloody big license to
pay. Oivo seen me pack a poker deck on
n sucknr roight under his nose , an1 Oivo
playodcassino with anoder and licked the
sawdust out of him every time bekiz I
took out two or three ov the shmall
kyards and then ho couldn't count game
nohow , and Oivo won forty games nv
pool roight oil bekiz I made the other
fellow use soaped chalk , an' I keep my
own chalk in my pocket. "
"Soaped chalk ! That's a now racket ,
Patsy , " admiringly rcmarkcda loafer with
a nose like a , danger-Bignal.
"Now racket bo blanked ! " oxclaimet
Mr. Patsy. "I know it when I was n kU
so high , an' it" i many a hundred suckers
Oive caught on it. A man will misi
foive shots out av tin if ho's had soaped
chalk put on him , nnd ho always thinks
it's the cue that's the matter , an' he'll
oven borrow yournbutav course it makes
no difference whatever. "
A pauses ensued , when the speaker re
sumed. "But the public is all suckers ,
nnd the best job that's boon put up on
them for many a day is this high-licenso
business. If they think it's goiu' to como
out nv our pockets they are d y mis
taken. It's thim what'll have to pay tlio
poipor. and don" you mistake it. It's
just this way : If a farmer can't sell his
shtulT nt a certain price , what'll ho do ?
Why , won't ho either Boll bad shtufT , or
won't bo sold out for his own price ? ETo'd I
bo n rank sucker if ho didn't. Well , wo
saloonkeepers ia loiVo the farmer. If wo s
can't got the owld proico for our shtuff
we'll make the ahtufT pay us ono way or
anoder , and there's a thousand ways wo i
can make it do it , an' the public' ] ! bo no
viser about it than a gooao playin' the
jowBharp an' thinkin' all the toimo its
pprformin' illcgantly on n gold-mounted 1
piano. That's the reason wliy the public
ia blank suckers if they think the tax in
goin' to como out ov our pocket. It
won't by a darned long sight , and the
public would bo only tnxin" their own
pockets if they made the taxes three
toimcs aa hoigh. "
At this time a deplorable looking tramp
with his hands stuck in his pocket wan
dered into the saloon , looked keenly at
all the faces thes o , nnd then with an air
of ill-aasumed confidence , walked up to
the bar and ordtred a glass of beer.
"Oot any money ? " said Patsy sharply.
' No , I ain't to-night. What the blank
linn that got to do with il ? I'll hov a
thousand dollars to-morrow. "
"Git out ov hero right ( juickyou blank
Hon-of-a-gunl Do you think it's oft" the
loikca nv yiz that wo Biiloon keepers can
ad'urd to pay our high licenses ? Go on
? here , or oill throw yiz out on the noido-
walk. "
The tramp walked.

While a pimy btj ! utf were refrcahing

shot and n yell otitsido caused everyone
to drop.what they \roro about and rush
to the door to nee what the disturbance
could bo. Another nnd another shot
cracked out , live in all , and then there
came the cry , "an Indian on toast. " I
ran to tho"placo , and beheld n owarthy
Indian lying on hia bark , the blood drip
ping from both hia sidca. His right hand
spasmodically clutched ft largo butchor-
knife , nnd hia murderer stood over him
w ith the smokingTovolvor with which ho
had done the deed atill in his haudovery
chamber of which waa empty. There ho
stood haranguing the crowd , justifying
hia action in strong , excited language ,
which seemed to moot their approbation ,
for every once 'n a while could bo heard
such words as "served him riRht , " "well
done , paid , " "another good Indian , " and
the liko. The victim bore the name of
Spokane Jim , nnd the ulayor was known
oa Hiram Parry , son of Bishop Joseph
Parry , Ogden , Utah.
It appeared that Iho Indian and Parry
had been engaged iu a gamo/of stud
poker with some others , In Winch Pany
came off with largo gains , Spokane Jim
was the moat export gambler of his tribe
and could not brook defeat , so ho drew
a l rgo butcher-knife and made a desper
ate lunge at Parry , who received him
coolly at the muzzle of a revolver , with
the result as stated. Parry gave himself
up without resistance.
A frontier jury waa hastily impaneled ,
who immediately sat on the case , re
turning in five minutes n verdict of "aolf-
defense , " and Iliram Parry was a free
man forever , having once been put in
jeopardy of his lifo and acquitted. The
jury then adjourned from the caao aino
die and into a neighboring saloon , where
a few minutes afterward I saw the late
prisoner inviting them one nnd nil to

CUKHTUNB , O. , May 29. A most mys
terious nfl'iiir took place hero yesterday
afternoon which has excited the curiouity
of all our citizens who are familiar with
the facts , nnd it 1ms been the principle )
subject of conversation nmong our gos-
mpors. James Barton , an influential
nnd respected citizens , and who for a mi-
mbi-r of yeani has boon working in the
P. F. W. repair shops at thia place ,
about six weeks ago , by reason of nick-
ness , wini obliged to quit work and go
homo. It 8Coms that Mr. Barton grow
gradually worse , and ho waa obliged to
tuko his bed part of the time , but lie waH
nut considered dangerous. About 2
o'clock yesterday Mr. Bit-Ion's family
were stmtlod by his appearontly djing
condition. Ilia foatnro.t were verv
much distorted and ho fell
back on Ins pillow seemingly doad. The
f.unily , almost crazed with grief , at
tracted the attention of their neighbors ,
who , hearing thorn , rushed in and dis
covered that Mr. Barton bore no signs of
animation , and upon a closer oxaminnlion
they pronounced life extinct. Ilia breath
ing was not perceptible , and his eyes
looliod aa if they were cloned in death ,
Tlio mystery is that Mr. Barton remained
in this condition for four hours. Proparn-
lions for burial were about to bo made
but happily for the family and nil Mr.
Barton's acquaintance ! when 0 o'clock ar
rived , ho suddenly nroueed from his sup
posed deathbed aa quickly as ho had
Hcommgly expired. There ia Bomntliiiifj

are other properties that are good , owned
by the name company. The next on my
list ia the Grand Prize , owned by A. L.

bonded for fifty thousand dollara , and
Iho bond expires Juno Mth of this year ,
it ia considered a sale in the camp. The
last that I will mention nt this writing is
by no moans least , is owned by Brunor
Bros , it Brown and called the Buena
Vista , but known in camp us the Bin
Copper , and big copper it surely is. Old
miners who have hnd from twenty to
thirty yearn' experience in mines on this
coast pronounce it the grandest they
have over seen ; it aloie would make a
good camp. It can bo traced on the stir-
face for a diatanqo of sixteen humhed

After five ydara' ' experience in the mines
of Colorado and Now Mexico , 1 say , and
say candidly , that 1 never saw n quanti
ty of ere taken from so small a hole in
the ground as either of the two last
named mines can show. There will bo
oho if not two arn'ultoro orcctcd at _ or
near the town site 'or Carbonate , which
by the way , was located in January last
nnd at present quite n number of business
houses are being erected.

of Big Lost River on ground that gradu
ally naconds from the river toward the
mountains on the north side of the val

digging to n depth of from eighteen to
twenty feet. There is nlso a ditch under
contract to bo taken from the river that
will water about six equaro milcn , the
town silo included. Skollon < fc Ashton
have a saw mill of Ion thousand foot per
day capacity , and everything looks pros
perous for a good mining town. The
valley proper contains about 200 nquaro
miles of available land , and water in
abundance for irrigation. Ccrcaln and

In conclusion I would eay that tlioro
