Fate of a Once Daring and Beautifu -—Woman. There are several old-time Nevada Cityans who had an acquaintance with the once noted and notorious woman Laura D. Fair, and -theyas well-as others who knew the Woman by repute should read the following sketch by a San Francisco corre: pondent, with some interest : Laura D. Fair was the woman who murdered A. P. Crittenden, a famous liwyer, in the county-of San Francisco, in.1870, while he_was crossing on tha ferryboat with his} wife and several children from Oakland to San Francisco, ~ : Mrs. Fair was of Southern birth, and possessed of much phy-ical and intellectual beauty in those days. She had many admirers at that time, but Crittenden won her frem all others by his generosity and uncommon devotion, The woman swayed a peculiar influence ever him for a time—even to the extent that he sent his wife and children east on a protracted visit. At length, however, his better nature asserted itself, and when, he told the Falr woman that he proposed’ writing his wife to return she threatened to kill him. Never dreaming that the female upon whom he had lav shed a mint of money, and for whom h+ had sacrified his social position, would execute her threat, he, on that fatal : day, went to meet his returning family. She, however, proved true to her word, and while Crittenden was merrily chattering with his returning family aboard the ferryboat, the murideress, closely veiled, approached and fatally shot her benefactor before the eyes of those deareat to him. The woman was tried en an indictment charging her with murder, before-the late Judge J. W. Dwinelle, Judge of the 15th judical district, and her counsel were two of swings. }Uppercuts and the Dempsey neck blow, and Interest Increasing.

That new man is doing no better in his predictions than Jenkins did and it is now in order for him to follow in the footsteps of Jenkins and go on a big drunk, and by superceded by some other fellow who can forecast the weather correctly. ~@> Postponed One Week. The case of the People vs, Feldkirchner, ou‘appeal from the Justice Court, came up in the Superior Court this morning and was postponed .one week.

Though a strong fight was made for her life and liberty, the jury convicted her of murder in the first degree, which verdict, then, was hailed with undisguised pleasure. Judge Dwinelle had ‘known the woman socially before she become ‘® notorious crimina’, and as he passed sen‘tenced of death upon her tears bedimmed his eyes and moistened his cheeks, ____ While this woman ws figuratively standing under the shadow of the gallows, the Supreme (‘ourt granted her a new trial, and on that occasion one Leander Quint become associated With the defense.
