Well, I don’t miad telling you, young man, Of course, a good many: years have passed since us old fellows, then young and ambitions, tramped and dug around through the hills in ‘search of the yellow metal that’ would raise . us from poverty to wealth,” and an old man to whom the Steckton Mail reporter was talking took another bite at a ragged piece of tobacco which he fished out of his faded and dilapidated trousers, ‘‘But my story is suchas a man ddesn’t forget easily. ‘*You see, I came here in ’49, all the way from Illinois. I was engaged to be married to a yirl that I thought more of than I did of the world beside —and my terbacer thrown in; but I didn’t care to get married on nothing and raise a lot of kids on a farm-hand’s wages, so I determined to come to Californy and make my fortune in the gold fields. “Mirandy, that was the name of my sweetheart, was a positive sort of a girl with a will of her own and the temper and determination of a Tartar —even if she was the handsomest girl for ten miles around; and when I told her my intention she just put her foot down and said no. When I tried to argue with her she set her teeth like a sphinx and said no harder’n ever; but I was determined to go, and for once I defied all her authority, and told her I was going anyway, as it was best for both of us that I should make some money. “Well, she got ‘a sort of a pale purple when she saw she couldn’t make me obey her. I felt bad about it, but I thought things would be-all right again when I came back from the West, andsoI told her, and tried bto kiss away her anger; but she wasn’t that kind of a girl. I couldn’t get near enough to her to touch her with a yard-stick. She just clenched her fftts and.,looked straight at me and said: ‘Youcan gotoCaliforny, John Henry Thomas, and try your foolish notions about picking up gold ; but you need never come back until you are a rich man. Now I am willing to marry you as you are, but if once you start for that place you can stay until you find what you seek.’ ‘Well, that was pretty tough on a young feller like me, forit wasn’t no dead shakes that I was going to find much gold; but my faith in the country was great even if Mirandy didn’t seem to go much on it, so the next chance I got I started for this State, ‘and my girl wasn’t around to see me off. either. She was a determined eort of person, she was. “T reached Galiforny-in safety with two other ‘young fellers who crossed with me. We had only enough money between us to buy a couple of pans and a pick and enough provisions to do us for a week. for the hillsand made our camp alcngcourd tind gold. “None of us knew a blamed thing about mining, but we dug and washed from early morning until dark, only finding enotgh to barely keep us alive, but always hoping to strike something—the other fellows thinking of the high times they would have when they atruackone of the big camps, and me thinking how I would return to my sweet Mirandy and her temper, : ‘‘We didn’t seem tostrike anything, though, by working along the stream. There wasn’t much gold to be found there ; but after while'we learned more about mining and determined on what, for us, was a stupendous scheme. That whs to dig adiich and carry the water around the hillto a flat where we believed there was oodles of gold, The job was one which would require nearly six months’ work, but we had so much faith inthe richness of the flat that we set to work. » “Tt was a weary task and we were but half fed, living off what little gold we could pan outofthe stream while not engaged on the ditch, Ie got sore of solemncholy once, thinking of Mirandy, and wrote a letter to her. I felt a darn sight more solemncholy when she wrote back: saying curtly thut she didn’t care to correspond with me until I could inform her that I had gtrack something worth writing about, . Things was more gloomy for me than’ ever after that. “I tell you things got pretty diemal for us before that ditch was finished, My pards were thinking of the fun they weren’t having and I was thinking of my girl and the cruel way in which she had .treated me—I couldn’t help it, We kept on a pegyin’ away though, and one day the ditch was completed and the water ‘was on the flat. ‘We all slept good that night even if we were getting rather thin from the continued strained relations Letween us and beans and pork; we bwere actually happy. I don’t know what the other fellows dreamed of, but Mirandy filled my slumbere all night. When morningcame we started to wash out the wealth which we were rure was waiting for us, “Did we find gold?* Nevera speck. ‘AN day we toiled and panned, and when night come we weren’t six bite Dethat wouldn’t have welcomed yeller For a ir grab.

We all decided: that we would strike out early and foot it to and, natural like, took another try at in chunks. We forgot our hungerand gave a whoop. I jumped right up and yelled Mirandy! -Mirandy! until the fellows though I was crazy. “We took just $158,000 worth of dust and nuggets out of that flat. We had ascale and weighed it, When the claim was plumb worked out one tocarry our gold, and one morning we started for Sacramento, the h&ppiest lot of men that the State ever saw. I could think of nothing bt my girl back in Illinois and how I would soon be with her, and my pards made the air ring with their songs. place under some oak trees that grew in-a narrow gulch. It was only rig further to Sacramento, and as Wwe cooked our slim meals over the camp fire that night we talked of the time when we should strike the town and be in a position to mukeuse of our wealth. “It must have been near midnight . ; when we were awakened by the “tlatter of horses’ hoofs upon the stones, and springing to our feet; we saw that. we were surrounded by a. band of nearly a score of villainous-looking Mexicans and half-breeds. They had their weapons leveled on us, and two of their number were already ‘going through our effects. : : “To move was death, and it -was nearly the same thing to lay there and watch all that we depended on for future happiness transferred to the possession of the brigands. They even took our mules. All visions of Mirandy faded from my mind, and I groaned aloud, “We pushed on to Sacramento, sick, weary and heavy-hearted. There the next morning we sold what little truck we had left, and what do you think we done with the proceeds? Goton a howling drunk, although I had never touched liquor before in my life. Inever went back to Illinois for I never made another strike. Mirardy may be still alive—or she may be dead. I have never heard of her since I got that one letter.”’ : Hotel Arrivals, Nationat Excuaner, Nov. 26—T. P. Redman, Washington; H. C. Callahan, Maybert; L. R. Colgrove, Dutch Flat; Thos.

Robert Lee Slashes Robert Sime mons With a Razer. d Robert Simmong, proprietor of the Glenbrook Saloon on Broad street, was horribly cut about the face and neck shortly before twelve o’clock, Tuesday night by an iron-worker named Robert Lee who has for years been employed in foundries at ‘this city, Grass Valley, Marysville’ and other. places. Lee, who is of middie age, is short in stature and compactly built and} has but oneeye. He came up from Grass .Valley on the eight o’clock stage. He brought with him a bundle which he deposited in Simmons’ salgon, then went out and took a spin around town during which he got a number of drinks aboard. Towards midnight he returned and asked Simmons for some liquor. The latter refused to let him have it unless he put-down the coinyas he already owed somethingthere. The two had some words when the proprietor proceeded to put him out. They had a lively scuffle in the course of which they got out.on. the. sidewalk and fell there, By the fall one of Lee’s shoulders was dielocated. He whipped out a razor while they were down and used it with fearful effect on Simmons’ face and neck. Simmons tried to call for help but could not. When he had done the cutting Lee got up and walked down to Main street where he wag arrested by Deputy Sheriff Schmidt who had learned of the trouble and quickly followed him. Simmons arose and staggered back into the saloon, carrying the handle of the»razor which he placed upon the bar with the remark, “That's what he done it with, and I’ll probably be dead in ten minutes.” The blade of the weapon was missing and when Lee was asked for it by the arresting officer he gaid, ‘*You’ll have to find it.” Another version of the manner in which Lee’s shoulder was dislocated is that he was thrown by Simmons against‘an awning post-after the cutSimmons’ wounds are four in number and as follows: One on the left side extending diagonally from the bridge. of the nose to the: lower jaw; one from the angle of the lower right jaw across to the center of the chin, cutting through the cheek to the teeth; one on the right side of the neck just over and to the facia’ of the carotid artery.There was also a perpendicular gash through both lips. Dr. Waggoner was immediately summoned and sewed upthe wounds. He says Simmons will recover uoless erysipelas sets in. Lee was seen inthe county jail at noon by the Transcript reporter. "My nerves are all unstrung;”” he said,, and his trembling hands and shaking knees indicated tbat he told the truth. “I got a terrible heavy fall,’’ he continued, ‘‘and that and the ecuffle broke me all up” todo your man up with,” remar the reporter. : “That’s not true,” said Lee. ‘The razor isthe oneI shave myself with and I just happened to have itin my pocket. I was afraid he would kill me. He was choking my wind off, I happened then to think of the razor and I knew it was my only salvation. I am eorry it happened. How is he?” he asked suddenly. ‘He is badly cut, but will probably get well,” was the reply. “T am glad it isn’t worse,’’ said Lee. _ The prisoner’s nervousness appears to be more the result of drinking than of anything else. He says his shoulder, which was replaced by Dr. Muller, does not bother him much. Lee’s preliminary examination is set fur next Wednesday, and Justice Wadsworth has fixed his bail at $2,600.

Well, I don’t miad telling you, young man, Of course, a good many: years have passed since us old fellows, then young and ambitions, tramped and dug around through the hills in ‘search of the yellow metal that’ would raise . us from poverty to wealth,” and an old man to whom the Steckton Mail reporter was talking took another bite at a ragged piece of tobacco which he fished out of his faded and dilapidated trousers, ‘‘But my story is suchas a man ddesn’t forget easily. ‘*You see, I came here in ’49, all the way from Illinois. I was engaged to be married to a yirl that I thought more of than I did of the world beside —and my terbacer thrown in; but I didn’t care to get married on nothing and raise a lot of kids on a farm-hand’s wages, so I determined to come to Californy and make my fortune in the gold fields. “Mirandy, that was the name of my sweetheart, was a positive sort of a girl with a will of her own and the temper and determination of a Tartar —even if she was the handsomest girl for ten miles around; and when I told her my intention she just put her foot down and said no. When I tried to argue with her she set her teeth like a sphinx and said no harder’n ever; but I was determined to go, and for once I defied all her authority, and told her I was going anyway, as it was best for both of us that I should make some money. “Well, she got ‘a sort of a pale purple when she saw she couldn’t make me obey her. I felt bad about it, but I thought things would be-all right again when I came back from the West, andsoI told her, and tried bto kiss away her anger; but she wasn’t that kind of a girl. I couldn’t get near enough to her to touch her with a yard-stick. She just clenched her fftts and.,looked straight at me and said: ‘Youcan gotoCaliforny, John Henry Thomas, and try your foolish notions about picking up gold ; but you need never come back until you are a rich man. Now I am willing to marry you as you are, but if once you start for that place you can stay until you find what you seek.’ ‘Well, that was pretty tough on a young feller like me, forit wasn’t no dead shakes that I was going to find much gold; but my faith in the country was great even if Mirandy didn’t seem to go much on it, so the next chance I got I started for this State, ‘and my girl wasn’t around to see me off. either. She was a determined eort of person, she was. “T reached Galiforny-in safety with two other ‘young fellers who crossed with me. We had only enough money between us to buy a couple of pans and a pick and enough provisions to do us for a week. for the hillsand made our camp alcngcourd tind gold. “None of us knew a blamed thing about mining, but we dug and washed from early morning until dark, only finding enotgh to barely keep us alive, but always hoping to strike something—the other fellows thinking of the high times they would have when they atruackone of the big camps, and me thinking how I would return to my sweet Mirandy and her temper, : ‘‘We didn’t seem tostrike anything, though, by working along the stream. There wasn’t much gold to be found there ; but after while'we learned more about mining and determined on what, for us, was a stupendous scheme. That whs to dig adiich and carry the water around the hillto a flat where we believed there was oodles of gold, The job was one which would require nearly six months’ work, but we had so much faith inthe richness of the flat that we set to work. » “Tt was a weary task and we were but half fed, living off what little gold we could pan outofthe stream while not engaged on the ditch, Ie got sore of solemncholy once, thinking of Mirandy, and wrote a letter to her. I felt a darn sight more solemncholy when she wrote back: saying curtly thut she didn’t care to correspond with me until I could inform her that I had gtrack something worth writing about, . Things was more gloomy for me than’ ever after that. “I tell you things got pretty diemal for us before that ditch was finished, My pards were thinking of the fun they weren’t having and I was thinking of my girl and the cruel way in which she had .treated me—I couldn’t help it, We kept on a pegyin’ away though, and one day the ditch was completed and the water ‘was on the flat. ‘We all slept good that night even if we were getting rather thin from the continued strained relations Letween us and beans and pork; we bwere actually happy. I don’t know what the other fellows dreamed of, but Mirandy filled my slumbere all night. When morningcame we started to wash out the wealth which we were rure was waiting for us, “Did we find gold?* Nevera speck. ‘AN day we toiled and panned, and when night come we weren’t six bite Dethat wouldn’t have welcomed yeller For a ir grab.

We all decided: that we would strike out early and foot it to and, natural like, took another try at in chunks. We forgot our hungerand gave a whoop. I jumped right up and yelled Mirandy! -Mirandy! until the fellows though I was crazy. “We took just $158,000 worth of dust and nuggets out of that flat. We had ascale and weighed it, When the claim was plumb worked out one tocarry our gold, and one morning we started for Sacramento, the h&ppiest lot of men that the State ever saw.

It was only rig further to Sacramento, and as Wwe cooked our slim meals over the camp fire that night we talked of the time when we should strike the town and be in a position to mukeuse of our wealth. “It must have been near midnight . ; when we were awakened by the “tlatter of horses’ hoofs upon the stones, and springing to our feet; we saw that. we were surrounded by a. band of nearly a score of villainous-looking Mexicans and half-breeds. They had their weapons leveled on us, and two of their number were already ‘going through our effects. : : “To move was death, and it -was nearly the same thing to lay there and watch all that we depended on for future happiness transferred to the possession of the brigands. They even took our mules. All visions of Mirandy faded from my mind, and I groaned aloud, “We pushed on to Sacramento, sick, weary and heavy-hearted. There the next morning we sold what little truck we had left, and what do you think we done with the proceeds? Goton a howling drunk, although I had never touched liquor before in my life. Inever went back to Illinois for I never made another strike. Mirardy may be still alive—or she may be dead. I have never heard of her since I got that one letter.”’ : Hotel Arrivals, Nationat Excuaner, Nov. 26—T. P. Redman, Washington; H. C. Callahan, Maybert; L. R. Colgrove, Dutch Flat; Thos.

Robert Lee Slashes Robert Sime mons With a Razer. d Robert Simmong, proprietor of the Glenbrook Saloon on Broad street, was horribly cut about the face and neck shortly before twelve o’clock, Tuesday night by an iron-worker named Robert Lee who has for years been employed in foundries at ‘this city, Grass Valley, Marysville’ and other. places. Lee, who is of middie age, is short in stature and compactly built and} has but oneeye. He came up from Grass .Valley on the eight o’clock stage. He brought with him a bundle which he deposited in Simmons’ salgon, then went out and took a spin around town during which he got a number of drinks aboard. Towards midnight he returned and asked Simmons for some liquor. The latter refused to let him have it unless he put-down the coinyas he already owed somethingthere. The two had some

words when the proprietor proceeded to put him out. They had a lively scuffle in the course of which they got out.on. the. sidewalk and fell there, By the fall one of Lee’s shoulders was dielocated. He whipped out a razor while they were down and used it with fearful effect on Simmons’ face and neck. Simmons tried to call for help but could not. When he had done the cutting Lee got up and walked down to Main street where he wag arrested by Deputy Sheriff Schmidt who had learned of the trouble and quickly followed him. Simmons arose and staggered back into the saloon, carrying the handle of the»razor which he placed upon the bar with the remark, “That's what he done it with, and I’ll probably be dead in ten minutes.” The blade of the weapon was missing and when Lee was asked for it by the arresting officer he gaid, ‘*You’ll have to find it.” Another version of the manner in which Lee’s shoulder was dislocated is that he was thrown by Simmons against‘an awning post-after the cutSimmons’ wounds are four in number and as follows: One on the left side extending diagonally from the bridge. of the nose to the: lower jaw; one from the angle of the lower right jaw across to the center of the chin, cutting through the cheek to the teeth; one on the right side of the neck just over and to the facia’ of the carotid artery.There was also a perpendicular gash through both lips. Dr. Waggoner was immediately summoned and sewed upthe wounds. He says Simmons will recover uoless erysipelas sets in. Lee was seen inthe county jail at noon by the Transcript reporter. "My nerves are all unstrung;”” he said,, and his trembling hands and shaking knees indicated tbat he told the truth. “I got a terrible heavy fall,’’ he continued, ‘‘and that and the ecuffle broke me all up” todo your man up with,” remar the reporter. : “That’s not true,” said Lee. ‘The razor isthe oneI shave myself with and I just happened to have itin my pocket. I was afraid he would kill me. He was choking my wind off, I happened then to think of the razor and I knew it was my only salvation. I am eorry it happened. How is he?” he asked suddenly. ‘He is badly cut, but will probably get well,” was the reply. “T am glad it isn’t worse,’’ said Lee. _ The prisoner’s nervousness appears to be more the result of drinking than of anything else. He says his shoulder, which was replaced by Dr. Muller, does not bother him much. Lee’s preliminary examination is set fur next Wednesday, and Justice Wadsworth has fixed his bail at $2,600.
