Serenading. This ancient method
of expressing juvenile tenderness for the

young men lately. Their efforts appear
lo have been unappreciated, however,
and they suddenly discovered that they

or an unfriendly shot-gun a few nights
cince. It is said that the base croaned
a husky grcan. The tenor and the
banjoist collided to the serious prodju
dico of the instrument, and we expos
tulato with sleepy parents against en
tertaining musical talent and youthful
emotion to inhospitably.

KILXIXG OF EVI SEEEXVC.
On tho evening of" Friday last the
community was startled by the report
that ft murder had been committed on
Jackass creek, a few miles from town.
Unfortunately the report was verified,
the victim being Evi Sebring, and the
homicide Samuel Rath, both well
known in this community. From tho
evidence adduced before the Coroner's
jury we present the following details:
On Friday morning Rath, who was
married to an Indian woman, had a
difficulty with his wife. Leaving
homo he proceeded to Sturgis', where
ho procured some liquor, returning to
his cabin near Sebring's late in the af
ternoon, passing Sebring's cabin on his
way home. Finding his wife at Se
bring's, where -she had taken refugo
with her sister who was living as Se
bring's wife, Ilath ordered her home,
she refusing to go. About dusk Rath
accompanied by an Indian named
Stevo returned'tdTSebring's cabin, the
latter enterig-eTT!4eivcring to en
tice Rath's wife outside. Stepping to
the door she perceived her husband
standing at the end of the porch with
his riflo in his hands and immediately
retreated inside. Sebring then step
ped out and remonstrated quietly with
Rath, tha latter still holding his gun
in a threatening position, and declar
ing that he was going to kill somebody.
Sebring said, "why Sam you would
net kill me would you?" Rath replied
"no" and hardly were the words utter
ed when he shot Sebring, tho ball
striking him just below the left nipple,
glancing upwards above the heart, and
inflicting a mortal wound. Dr. Dan
forth was called, but tho unfortunate
man was past earthly succor and expir
ed about midnight, declaring that the
deed was entirely unprovoked and ask
ing that his murderer might receive a
fair trial. On Saturday morning Rath
and his Indian occomplice were arrest
ed by two miners, Thomas Brown and
Olivet Weaver, and delivered to Dep
uty Sheriff Cajoh, who was on his way
for the same purpose, and safely placed
in jail. On Monday and Tuesday the
prisoners were examined beforo Justice
Hufferand held to answer, without
bail, to the charge of murder in the
first degree. The case will bo tried
t the February term, and as to the
circumetanees surrounding it or the
motives prompting the deed, wo have
nothing to say, they baing en1. fit sub
jects tor itfco . 'consideration of a
i'xy-
Exclusive; 'ScciAnTT. On Monday
evo there was a vry pleasant party at
the residence of ono our prominont cit
izens present, twacty odd young la
dies, no gentlemen. Ws regret to see
or hear of cny social cxclu3lvcness
among ycung people, and if. tha girls
would redeem the characters of their
brothers and their associates they must
net exclude them from their society.
What i3 truo of the polluting touch of
vice is true as to the contact with
modesty and virtue, and if our young
lad-03 want to find fitting husbands
and protectors they must assist in
moulding their characters by the gen
tle but powerful influence given only
to woman. K punishment for previ
ous bad behavior was intended it was
a failure, Thero was more hoodlum
ism than usual that evening, and seme
of our young boys wero driven to a
placo where manhood should blush to
be found. Give them a chance girls;
take thera more into your society, in
stead ex less; refine and elevate them;
ask your parents to permit sociable
parties and innocent games under
proper restrictions and your brothers
will lovo you better and better for
your intercision.
Fine Stock. We have just seen
two colts belonging to Mat. Obenchain

Pistol Practice. A. J. Wall, of
Table Rock precinct, indulged in a lit
tle pistol practice that came near prov
ing fatal. From an eye witness we
learn the following details: A trial was
progressing in Justice Childer's court
to which Wall was a party, there being
present a number of persons as spec
tators and witnesses. During its
progress Wall started up tho stairs to
the court room and was accosted by
John Sizeraoro who, sitting on the
tence z. siiorfc distance off, desired to
speak to him. Wall replied that he
had not time; Sizeuiore repeated tho re-
onfft. nT(lWr?l wipi.rW jfjWj. -
some difficulty about a colt, and hav
ing reached the upper landing replied
angrily with an opprobrious epithet.
Sizemcre with like temper said he would
thrash tho ground with Wail, andstarted
up tho stairs. Wall still remained on
the landing warning Sizcmorenot to ap
proach. Sizemore continued up the
stairway, and when within a few feet
cf Wall the latter drew a pistol from
his pocket and discharged it full in
Sizemore's face, which was considerablv
powder burnt. The ball struck Size
mor s hat just above the band, missing
the top of-his head about one half inch.
Wall was immediately arrested, and on
Saturday was examined by Justice
Childers and bound ever in the sum of
S500, to appear at tho February term
of coTirt.

Why den't he give a graphic account
cf his late trip to Willow Springs? Tell
how the miners have gouged, and
ditched, and cut up tho road, until it
has become a perplexing labyrinth.
How bravely ho grasped the lines,
how tenderly he cooed to the impatient
team, as his partner, Abe not Abe
Mensor threaded the devious way in
her tiny buttoned boots seeking in vain
for the road. How a friendly hand
finally pointed it out and how the
shocking state of that road was quietly
kept from the public How was it
Charley? Was the little rascal with tho
bow and quiver, riding behind like a
naughty urchin, befogging the senses
with the young dream that is said to be
the sweetest thing in life and obscur
ing the highway with a cloud of ar
rows? Next time you ride ply the
whip and see that the mischiovous lit
tlo rascal does not cling to tho hind
axle of the buggy.
Visit the School. Parents should
not neglect to frequently visit the
schools where their children attend; it
encourages the children, as well as the
teacher, to know that you feel an inter

tion of your children during their hours
of study.

If you aro troubled with nervousness,
are disheartened, tired of life, ' fear
death or feel out of sorts as tho saying
is, you may safely conclude that ycu
have the dyspepsia or Liver CompUint
Tho liver is very apt to becomj torpid
this season of tho year as poisons aris
ing from stagnant water or decaying
vegetation aro more numerous and are
through inhalation taken into tho blood.
Unless the liver is strong and active,
and furnishes a supply of fresh and
puro blood to drive out the impurities,
the above mentioned symptoms surely
follow, and if not heeded, end in moro
terrible diseases and death. Whito'3

Agricultural. Our farmers are

enough Luis fallen to facilitate plowing

seeding and there need be no gloomy
forebodings.
Flattering. Wo hear that R. n.
Westrop has been offered good induce
ments by the stock raisers of Douglas
county, to return there with his fine
