In the trial of the People vs. J. -A. Rapp, the first witness called yésterday morning was Peter Gallagher. He testified he was at Blumenthal’s corner-the evening of the altercation. near Webber’s store to Hyman’s. He had his right hand in his right coat pocket. His left arm hung by his side. He went into Dr. Welch’s office. Saw him next by the show window at Carr’s drugstore coming up street. L. M. Sukeforth testitied substantially as follows: Witness was in the post-office, and hearing a noisein the Welch was near the Rapp near the stove. Welch told witness that Rapp attempted to shoot him. Rapp and Welch then had hard words. Welch said, . “I can’t stand everything, Rapp. I haven’t done anything to you to have you treat me so.’’ Welch said, “I asked you to take a drink with me and you refused.” Rapp said he refused because he had just drank. Rapp, after a few more words, called him a lying s— of a b—. Welch said he wanted nething more todo with him. A few minutes after that saw Rapp again, Welch having leff™ Rapp had a pistol in his coat pocket. Rapp in passing said to him that Welch was a “cowardly s— of a b—.” At 10:30 the prosecution rested: The defense asked for a recess, saying they had sent to Moore’s Flat for an important witness who would arrive soon. An adjournment till eleven o’clock was had. On the reassembling of court Mr. Jones of counsel for defense made.a a statement as tofwhat that side proposed to prove. He said it would be necessary to show that all of the elements of a disposition to murder existed on Captain Rapp’s part when he made the assault in order to secure his convection. The defendant had for years been on terms ofintimacy and ‘friendship with Dr. Welch who was his family’ physician. They had no trouble, there was no feeling _— of malice towards him on defendant’s part. The Doctor had.done nothing to provoke malice. Rapp had been drinking and was not entirely himself. On that day, it would be proven, he left his office at noon. He went downtown and drank some. Then went homein a delirious condition at 3 o’clock and stayed 2 hours. He was seemingly happy with the whole world, and jocularly asked his wi e to go down with him and take a cocktail. Went down and. resumed drinking. Took with him the pistol he had been in the habit of carrying. Saw Welch and concluded to play a joke! on him, It was the freak of a drunken man. Heexamined his pistol and saw he would have to pull it three times to discharge it. He put his arm around the neck of his family physician, his friend of years’ standing, and used language not usual to aman who was about to shoot down a citizen. Dr. Welch was the last man in the world he wanted to harms. He saw that he had carried the joke too far when the Doctor turned on him, and fearing retaliation endeavored to retain ‘possession of the weapon. The Doctor said, “You tried to assassinate me.’’ He indignantly denied this saying, ‘‘You are a liar.’ He.was exasperated at the blows he had received and was smarting under them. He thought he had been abused. Counsel said. that he had been severely punished already and closed with the statement that the jury’s duty was to acquit him. Mrs. Rapp, wife of the defendant, was the first witness in his. behalf. Age 43. Married six years. The Captain had been drinking untsually freely for a short time previous to July 15th. On that day he left home at 9 in the morning. Returned at 3. Had Left at 10 minutes before 5 o’clock. Said he would return in an hour. Saw him next at 7:30 in the Sheriff's office. His feelings -towards Welch -had—always before this been friendly. Never heard him say he disliked the Doctor. At one time witness wanted another Doctor and her husband objected. Saw Welch two days after the sae Told him the Captain felt dly over the matter and wanted to see~him; also that the Captain did not know I came to him. Welch said he would not see him or have anything to do with him but, to prosecute him. He said, ‘‘He made a dirty, cowardly assault on me. He may thank his lucky starsI did not kill him.” 1 replied “I thank God he didn’t kill you or you didn’t kill him.” He said he would have hurt him worse had no one interfered. He was excited and spoke profanely. I said, ‘You must forget you aro speaking to the Captain’s wife.” Did not know the Captain had a pistol for months before the trouble. A week later, on Sunday, Imet the Doctor and asked him if}he was as unrelenting as before. He said he was not unrelenting,and that if the District Attorney dismis:ed the charge he would not object. He would not use his influence to press it. Cross-examined — Defendant had drank almost continually since six months after his marriage. For some weeks before July 15th drank still harder. Was naturally of a happy disposition. Was happier than usual the day of the trouble. Was not so drunk aa to be out of hismind. Never expressed to witness any enmity towards Welch growing out.of military affairs. Have not seen a pistol in defendant’s possession since last FebruC. Seaman testified concerning the details of the altercation at the Hotel as published yesterday in the report of his testimony for the prosecution. ~~ are = George Hegarty, aged 18 and a resident of‘Moore’s Flat, testified substantially as follows: Am acquainted with neither defendant nor Dr. Welch. Was i in the National Hotel office the night of the altercation. Rapp pulled something from his right hip pocket, looked at it and put it back in his pocket. Thought it was a pistol ; looked as though he turned it over. Soon after this the altercation took place. I went into the wash-room when he pulled the pistol.at Dr. Welch. Cross-examined—Rapp stool near the stairs to the dining room when I first saw him. Do not know whether it was,a pistol he took from his pocket. Redirect—I said to my father, in the National Hotel, in the presence of Fred Naake, p, rter at the Hotel, that [saw Captain Rapp take out something from his pocket and examine it just before the altercation. When I was talking tovmy father he told me to keep still and not mix up in the matter. John Bacigalupi, bartender at the National HotePiiloon, was called. Between 4:30 and-Son the afternoon of July 15th defendant drank a number of times at the National barroom, taking whisky cocktails. Just before the recontre he was under the influence of liquor. He was not beastly drunk. He appeared good-natured. Witness gave the particulars of the fracas after the pistol fell to the floor: Seaman gave it to-me. When he came after it later it was in the same condition as when I got it. The chamber on the left side of the one the hammer rested on was empty. Cross-examined—Haye known defendant 20 years. Heis a drinking man. Noticed two empty chambers in the revolver. There might have been three. Mrs. L. Garthe testified. Residé in Nevada City. On the afternoon of July 15th,between 4:30 and 5, saw Mr. Rapy-coming from his home. Thought he was very drunk. He did not notice me. Cross-examined—Did . not notice that he staggered. He walked erect. The defendant was next called. Resided here 21 years. 43 years old. Have known Doc. 15 years of more. We were always friendly. He was my family physician. On July 15th was in my office from 9 till 1 o’clock. Had been drinking. Went home in the afternoon. Sometimes I carried this pistol. Did not put itin my pocket that day with the intention of assaulting Dr. Welch. Three chambers were unloaded. Had been unloaded amonth or six weeks. There were four cartridges in the pistol. I gave twoof them to Deputy Sheriff Carter when he asked me for some. At the National on the 15th met some friends and drank four or five times. Havea faint recollection of drawing the pistol. Thought I would have a little fun and bluff Doc. As soon as I put the pistol up I saw Doc was mad and I had made a fool of myself. I do not know I pulled the trigger. I had looked at the pistol before going up to Welch and saw that the chambers near the hammer were empty. He detailed his actions in presenting the pistol at Welch’s head. Would have had to pull the trigger twice more had I desired to shoot. Could have shot him had I wanted to. Idid not give the pistol up to him for fear he might use it on me. He said,‘‘What have I done toyou? You came upto my back and tried to assassinate me.’ I said, “You area liar.’’? Before the trouble I had no malice against Welch. Do not think that I said the night before,‘‘No, the s—of b—s,’’ when he asked me to drink. IfI did, I had no reference tohim. All I said was, ‘No, Doc, I just hada drink.’’ Phat morning I was going to the postoffice. He said, ““D— you” or ““G— d— you, what do you Want to call me as— of a b— for ?”’ I said I had not, and whoever said [had was a liar. He said he was no coward and was not afraid of me. That caused no feeling on my part. I never thought ofit afterwards. The blows and loss of blood dazed me and made me faint. Ido not know what I did afterwards. I do not know that I went to his office or hunted for him. Cross-examined—Never--had--any feeling against Welch growing out of military troubles. Dr. Welch served on me an order to report my accounts as Captain of a military company. We drank together that night. Do not recollect going into the National saloon at 11 o’clock on the night of July 11th and. throwing my hat on the bar saying, “The s— of b—s, there’s
one in this room now.” Did not on the night of the 14th when asked to drink with him throw up my hands and say, ‘““The s—s of b—s.” Generally put the pistol in my pocket at night when closing up the office. Carried it my hip poeket. Occupy apartments with my wife. On the evening of the 15th went from the office to the National. Don’t recollect anything that occurred after I came out of the wash-room. At the request of the defendant’s attorneys he illustrated with what rapidity he could snap the revolver, the two loaded cartridges having been removed. I. J. Rolfe sworn: Was at the National Hotel and saw defendant and Welch after they were separated on the night of the altercation. He gave a description of the scuffle. The defense rested at 3 o’clock, when a recess of ten minutes was taken, The argument of counsel was then begun and were not concluded till a late hour in the evening. Office to Bent.

A LIVELY CAMP. Letter From Ormonde—Industrial and * Social Doings There. Ormonpg, Oct. 20, 1887. Eprror Transcrret—There is, not quite as much bustle and commotion around this town just now as there was a few days ago. At that time the company were employing from thirty . to forty men in and around the Wash-. ington mine, including carpenters, underground miners, ditch diggers, flume builders and dam constructors, besides ‘a few other attaches of the Company’s store and boarding house—all work: ing in unison and for the same object. That object was to get the river water on to the big forty-foot évor-shot water wheel as quickly as possible in order to test-the belting and turn down the big pulleys in the mill. That is now being done and in a few more days the mill will be ready for crushing. W. J. Organ of; Nevada City, who had a contract from the Company to dig the ditch, build the ume and superintend the construction of the.dam, was the worst,; heard of. Why, he would even damn McElvey ifthe latter did by accident or otherwise drop a big rock on one of his big toes more than three times a day. Hewould damn Adam Craig if Adam drove over one half of the nails through the bottom while nailing on the side boards to the flume, and so Craig very often got damnéd. He damned Sam Andrews because it took Sam more than a week todig from the center of the ditch a sinall spruce tree not larger than a good-sized baby’s body. To cap the climax, he used hard cuss words to old uncle Tommy Maloney for smoking his pipe: when sntch-block. Tommy got even by demanding immediately his time and coin. He got hoth. Two big law suits are threatened here goon; one for heavy damages and the other for possession of a mine. They will prove fine nuts for the lawyers to crack. ~ Hank Place is now building a dam across the outlet from Negro: Flat to catch the tailings from his mine at Omega. The dam is t6 be boarded up perfectly tight so nothing will escape except what runs off in solution. There is still a liberal reward offered to the mother of the first child born in this town :nd therefore W. J. Organ talks of moving up with his, family. As Mrs. Barney Williams used to say while acting on the stage, ‘‘Some things is done while others is a doin’.” There are lots of bears prowling around nights up here, affording a rare chance for Holland, the noted bear-hunter. It is said that when Jake draws a bead on a bear, bruin just wilts—sits right down and waits tobe butchered. Like Davy Crockett’s coon, he comes right down without shooting. I will bring this letter to a close after giving you a partial account of the workings of the Blue Jay quartz mine. The ledge is located about a half a mile west:of the old Lindsay mine. The owners of the property are principally residents of Blue Tent. They have run a tunnel inon the ledgea distance of three hundred feet. vein of ore is from two to six feet wide, all good milling rock which shows rich in free gold-in many places. They have now on the dump about one hundred and sixty tons of ore. This mine promises a rich bonanza to the owners when fully developed. A patent has been obtained for the ground. M. A. Baugh is the superintendent. Mc. Hog Cholera Remedy. An agricultural paper says: Every paper in the United States ought occasionally to keep the fact before its readers that burnt corn is asure and speedy remedy for hog cholera. The best way is to make a pile of corn on the cobs, effectually scorch it and then give the effected hogs free access to it. This remedy was discovered by E. E, Lock at the time “his distillery” was burnt in Lewiston, Ill., together with alarge lotcf stored corn, which was so much injured as to be unfit of use, and greedily devoured. by the hogs, several of which were dying daily. After the second day not a single hog was lost, and the disease entirely disappeared. The remedy has been tried ina number of cases since, and has never failed. Probably Slipped in Accidentally. The Mining and Industrial Advocate has the following :.The Chronicle says a book on dams in India has been received.at the office of the Stat’ *Mining Bureau, which proves the fasity of Judge Sawyer’s opinion that the tremendous forces of Nature in this country cannot be overcome in like manner. This statement is so out of character with the uniform course of the Chronicle towards miners, that the item must have been overlooked, or it could never have appeared in columns that have been used to prove that bowlders and paving stones had been piled against our seawall by the vandalic miners two hundred miles away.

Pet Hill fruit farm, fourteen miles south by west of this city on the road to Marysville,changed owners yesterday, its proprietorship passing from Mrs. Sullivan, toa company consisting of Mayor Gregory of Sacramento,County Clerk Beatty of this city, and some other gentleman who are favorably impressed with the charaeter of the soil and clmate in that portion of the Neyada gounty Bartlett pear belt. The farm will this ‘week be consolidated with the adjoining place owned by Swan Segestrand, the well-known herticulturist, who will become a joint owner with the others and assume the superintendency of the entire holding consisting of nearly 400 acres. It is the desire of the purchasers to make this the model fruit farm of the NorthernCentral California citrus belt. To that end the work of clearing the land will be commenced immediately, and will progress as rapidly as the state of the company’s treasury. will permit. Peach, prune,olive and other varieties of trees known to thrive in that locality will be set out in liberal quantities,and an orange orchard is to be started in order to practically c@emonstrate whether or not the culture of this fruit can be successfully and profitably carried on there. The acreage of the present vineyard is to be largely increased. The roadsides are to be ornamented with cypress hedges, the buildings are-to be putin thorough repair_and repainted, and everything possible done to give the place acreditable. appearance as well as to develop its now ‘latent horticultural resources.

The contempt proceedings growing out of the suit of Peter Hardt against the Liberty Hill Consolidated Mining and Water Company was dismissed Thursday in the U. 8.
