POOR MABLEGRAY, —
“Once She Was Fair as the Snow,
“but She Fell.”
The Truckee Republican tells the.
following about a character who is
known in about every camp in this
part of the State: ——“‘A forlorn, desolate woman, who lives in Truckee,
is known as pour Mabel Gray. Her
countenance and actions prove her
demented, but she is harmless to
everyone but herself. Her pitiful,
woebegone face might haunt one.
Poorly clad, poorl, fed, friendless
and homeless, she wanders the streets
day and night, Yes, day and night,
for during all these bitter November
«ighte she hae refused shelter and
remained outdoors in the cutting
wind and biting frost. How she has
endured the cold and exposure, the
privatiens and suffering, is past all
comprehension. She is still a young
woman, ani if properly clothed
and cared for would be considered
good looking. Before her present
mode of life began she must have
been beautiful. There are those in
town who knew of her when she was
happy, beloved and attractive, a
lovely girl, a charming, devoted
bride. Now she is dear to her
friendsand to herself, a poor, half.
insane wreck. A subscription was
raised yesterday to send her to the
county hospital, but she refused to
go, and became fairly wild when the
subject was mentioned in her presence. There was no. course left but
to refund the money to those who
gave it, and let poor Mabel Gray
pursue her unhappy. way. The law
affords no relief. The istoo harmtess to be arrested; she has remnants
of reason which prevents her being
declared insane. ‘The case is one of
the most pitiful, sorrowful, that can
be imagined. Our citizens must
devise some means to place her where
she can receive proper food and shelter and medical treatment, or she will
die.”
Yesterday the unfortunate woman
was brought tothe County Jail to
serve twenty days on a charge of
vagrancy, She isa battered remnant
of a once proud, intelligentand handsomelady. She has steeped herself
in crime and whisky and opium till
she knows no shame and says she
would not forsake her present degradation if she could. She scorns
pity and glories in her badness.

Hydraulic Mine Started.
The Hennessy hydraulic mine on
Bread street, opposite the National
Exchange Block, was started up yesterday morning, and at a late hour
yesterday afternoon a large body of
earth had been washedaway. The warer was obtained from the hydrant iv
front of Wells, Fargo & Co.’s express office, and conducted across
the street to.the claim by means of a
big fire-hose. The slickens after
passing through the sluice is dumped into the Main sewer in that part
of town and flows thence into Deer
creek, Asthe mine is located directly under a livery stable, the
gtangers in the valley will have hard
work proving that the ‘‘tailings”
from it are aninjury to their unfertile ranches.
TE
An Incipient Conflagration.
Saturday evening some children
playing around the barn in the rear
of the residences of W. G. Richards
and John Tyrell, on Broad street
just below the Engine House, accidentally set fire to the building
Mrs. Tyrell discovered the flames
before they had made much headway, and extinguished them. Had
they got a few minutes’ more start
the consequences . would probably
have proven quite disastrous.

The announcement of the death of
Funeral Mary’s donkey was premature. The noble animal still lives,
if weare to believe a series of affidavite tothat effect that have been regula:ly filed at this office. The report of its decease is stigmatized by
sundry witnesses as a campaign
slander invented by the Republicans
for mercenary political purposes.

Cloaks! Cloaks! Cloaks!
Having purchased three quarters
of the stock of a well known cloak
manufacturing company at 25 cents
on a dollar, we will give the ladies
of this vicinity the benefit of the
bargain. We will sell the cloaks
which we have on hand now at 25
cents on the dollar, Our new stock
will arrive in a very few days. —Ladies should be very cautious where
they buy their goods. Toey should
always consult us before purchasing
elsewhere as we keep none but genuine goods, ‘We handle no second

Mr. High Price used tocharge you 25

And still we make a good living on
that lay-out. Mr. High Price can
afford to sell his goods at ‘25 cents

per cent. profit. Remember, always
patronize oppositions. You have
paid old °49 prices long enough in

down to a business basis, because
Mr. Low Prices is bringing Mr.

Not Worth Mugh,
The Sacramento Bee of Satarday
published the following:
This anonymcus message has reached the Bee office by ails “Little
York booming, Large head of water being used at intervals during the
day. Rancuer.” The Little York
isa hydraulic mine on Bear river.
Tt was one of those against which
suit was brought in the Keyes anit;
the first anti-debris action. The Lit.
tle Yo k, we believe, is one of the
defendants in an anti-d. bris suit now
before the United States Circuit
Court. We print theabove communication for what it may be worth.
The Bee knew the ‘‘message” had
no foundation before putting it in
type. That is one of the little
dodges our contemperary resorts to
in order to keep the valley people
“riled up” and embittered towards
the miners, The moment the people down there get over their mad,
that moment will the greedy cormorants comprising the anti-mining
ring have to skirmish around for
some other means of earning a livelihood. It devolves upon the Bee, as
‘the organ of the ring, to keep alive
the sentiments of hatred between
upper and lower countries, and it
takes kindly te the task.
