COWDERY. What He fins te Suy About the StockEpicor Traxecrrer—I notice in the Stoekton Herald an article that indirectly insinuates that I have been guilty of assisting pupils to pass examinations, etc. If the writer means that I have been guilty of anything dishonorable or dishonest, his insinuations are false. I have at all times and in all places ia every legitimate way assisted my pupils that Icould. In fact, I have long been noted for that. There is some one behind the editor of the Herald and the whole thing wall be made public when the proper time arrives. His ungentlemanly reference to those young ladies who testified before the Board of Education was uncalled for. They told the truth, and all honorable persons will respect them for it. Whenever any specific, charges are made against me I will .either acknowledge them to be true, prove them false, or make the author prove them. Yours, ete., Ww. A. Cowpery. Nevapa Crry, May 27, 1882. The City Board of Education met yesterday. Principal Kennedy reported the school as progressing favorably, and made suggeations in relation to the approaching examination. Messrs. Robinson an.J Mulloy were appointed to fill vacancies on the Committee on Giaselllcatian and Promotion. BILLS ALLOWED, C. E. Mulloy, for supplies $1.25; Thos. Mooney, sawing wood $2; A. M. E.

Brooklyn Lodge,:I.0, O. -F.,}-at Yon-Bet, held a Rebekah Degree meeting -Friday ‘evening. There were present from this city some nine Odd Fellows and their ladies, and from Grass Valley about 25. After the secret ceremonies the en« tertainers and their ,ueste had a sapper.and dance, the latter continuing till day morning. presbrick swinile on some Truckee Chinathen theotherday, were arrested in herself off as Cooke's wife has not Mrs. A. Rosenthal, Commercial Te : ‘in this city by the general. suspenstreet, offers the stock in her uion of basincas for at.least « porti ter when there is'areasonable foun:la'. Tuesday, which is Decoration Day, close by, and Valley Union of Friday ocvurred the following reference to the same episode: « gh Go It is reported that tome kind of an altercation took place yesterday and that a pistol was drawn. The mail of Friday evening brought the following letter to this office, Grass Vautey, May 26, 1882, Frrenp CaLxixs,—My attention has been catled to an sells ‘in this morning's TRANsCRIPT entitled “‘On ‘ Rampage.” — The. statements therein are all untrue except the Teported arrest. _ I had no trouble with Wil'iams. He didnot draw a revo'ver, I did not ran. . The facts are that Williams called on mein my office on business, went to the door with him:' He walked down street and muttered something. 1 asked him what he said. He made no reply, but turning around, threw his hand to his pistol pocket, Further demonstration was privented by bystanders, and Wi fig away. I subsequently understood tha hie hed been arrested. Yours, The Grass Valley Union of yesterday had this: The Nevada Transcarer of yeste:day contained an account of a difficulty between Chas. W. Kitts and D. H. Williams. A Union reporter is informed by Mr. Kitts hiniself that the Transcrtrr is incorrect in these age vig Mr. Kitts had no trouble with Mr. Williams; Wilhams did not draw a pistol; and Mr. Kitts did not run. E We are well aware that Mr, Kitts would not wilfully. misrepresent the matter, but he simply puts a different construction apon words than we do. We admit that Mr. Kitts did not ‘‘rua,” but. aside from that one feature claim that our. item was correct.. We believe it: can be proven that Mr, Kitts told Mr. Williams to vacate his office; that Williams came out and walking towards Byrne’s stable a few feet said to Kitts who was in his doorway, "You are a G—— scoundrel;” that Kitts advanced towards Williams, asking in substance; What's that you say)” that Williams holding .« pistol behind him warned. Kitts not approach any farther; that st least four Persons saw the pistol in Williains’ hand, and some of _ them also shouted to Kitts to keep back; that Kitts obeyed the command; and returned to his office leisurely; that M. Byrne, Jr., who had been talking with Mr, Kitts, went up to Williams and told him to go away, and Williams went. We say these things will all be testified to by witnesses of the occurrence, because we have had more than one talk with some of these witnesses. ~ Williams called at this office yesterday morning to say thathe was not the aggressor aa had been reported. His story is that Mr. Kitts as Notury Public had in keeping a deed belonging to Williama that the latter told him to deliver to other parties on certain conditions; that Kitts delivered that deed without the conditions being fulfilled; that Wilhame told Kitts in strong lan guage what he thought about the matter, and that Kitts made affiant leive his office. Williams claims that he hus been greatly wronged, but with how much reason we do not know nor care. Williams saysthat Kitts was following and abusing him after he left the office, and that if Kitts had not stopped when. told he (Williams) would have shot him dead; as he was prepared and determined to \do if pursued further, “Williams finally says that while Kitts may not bave ran, ‘‘he retreated in a hurry.” IN CONCLUSION. This is a stall matter, but one thatneeds showing up in order to prove that the Transcrirt generally fias pretty good suthority for the iteme it publishes, no matter who denies their truthfulness. We understand it to be ‘our duty to give Space to occurrencts “of this charaction, io. work an. We do not. want to malign or wrong: unjustly any Man Or woman; but we want it understood that, as will prove ‘to be the result in the teachers’ examination case, (our connection with which will be ventilated at length in these columns when the Board of Education have done their duty), tiewspapers sometimes know what they are about when they ‘make items.” : Decoration Day. — The indications are that next and a legal holiday, will be observed t. . was from Grass Valley and claimed Jish and other styles of wrestling. illiams walked . large crowd was present at the wreatling match in. Bodie. “Thursday between William Eddy and Josephus Dawe. The match was made some time ago and the stakes were for $250 aside and the door money, Eddy to be the champion of this section, . Dawe is an old resident of Bodie and is recognized as an amateur in: the wrestling business, although he has had considerable experience at CornBoth men are Englishmen, and light weights, . ‘The men appeared in the ring at 3 o'clock. Thomas Rule, engineer at’ the Bulwer-Standard mill, was chosen referee. James Tonkin seconded Eddy and James Pascoe looked out for Dawe’s interests. After time was called the wrestlers started in. bravely av.’ for several minutes displayed remarkable agility. From the start} it looked as though the men meant business. Betting was about even and the best of good feeling prevai'ed in all quarters. Judging from general indications Dawe was the favorite and had the sympathy, The wrestlers were active and the liveliest kind of work was performed.’ Dawe was thrown several times and Fddy was repeatedly forced to the floor. But the drops were not of the right sort, After half an hour’s work Dawe was thrown on his two shoulders-and—oné hip. Of course there was the usual amount of complaint at the decision of the referee. The contest was very interesting from the start. The usual time was allowed between falls and when the men came together for the second round Eddy felt unusually confident of winning the match. His friends were equally certain he would settle the match in afew moments. But the result was quite the contrary. Dawe after a very pretty piece of work, threw F.idy square upon his back. This put @ new phase on the situation, ‘and Dawe's stock bounded upward. A number of respectable bets were made and'the ball was kept rolling. As each man had'a fall, it now stood the “boys” in hand to proceed cautious‘ly, and they did so. Eddy’s favorite hold was on the collar of his antagoaist’s jacket and Dawe had a similar hold. This style of ‘wrestling wes kept up until 6 o’clock and no fal! was obtained. At that hour the referee called time and stated that there would be an intermission of one hour, After dinner the men resumed the battle, but they. could accomplish nothing. The wrestling after supper, if it could be called wrestling, was of a very inferior character and exceedingly uninteresting, but the audience bore up under it with Christian meekness and forbéarance. It was evident that. Eddy andDawe were afraid of each other and they would not leave themselvee liable ander any consideration, As regards strength Eddy was the stronger. of the two. At midnight the match was still in progress. Oe 'G@OD THINGS. What the “Daily Transcript” Would Like Te See. We would like to see— Every honest man get his dues.
