With the exception of a little (lurry of enow on Tuesday last we have been enjoying the finest kind of weather. . -?1!K shooting easE. Charles King, who was shot, on "Wednesday night last, by otlieer Florida, is in ft "cry bad condition this morning. The physicians say unless he has constant medical attendance at-tendance he cannot recover. He is at present in the -Alta hospital, an institution in-stitution founded by our worthy fellow fel-low citizen Ed. Forney. The hospital --is-all right, hut the attending phvsi-, phvsi-, cian, JV. JSevans, took atrip, to Salt .Xakotatya few ilayt jigo, j;k! lias 'Kit j-vit f" returned . or 1 h ported :his ' t-uliere;U-uts, Fo-tliiil t!iv in.-titction is ; without a doctor. Mr. Forney shouid i not have received a patient unless he intended to do as he advertises, sun-ply sun-ply medical attendance free. Oiikvr Florida has been ?tio;-gly cenejred for shooting King. There is nodoubt 1 but that he transcended his duty. He had in warrant for him, nor any evideneevvhateverthat be committed any crime. It seems that, on Liie afternoon after-noon previous, King had an altercation alterca-tion with a Cierman butcher, and -that the butcher threatened to sheot ! King. . .WUyn Florida ordered him to . halt, King supposed the buich.er and one of his friends were alter him. Not being armed he took I"g bail and j broke for the willows. As ihe unforlu-: unforlu-: 1 nate man was climbing the bank oq the opposite side or the creek . Florida shot him. with a double-bar j reikd shot-gun, discharging hulh bar-I bar-I rtls. King was completely peppered j with Jino shot. The only serious j wound was from a ball which entered . I directly under the right arm. There J is one thing certain, Florida shut the f wrong man and was perfectly unjus-1 unjus-1 titled in so doing, as far as I can . learn. He is under arrest, and there . ' will be an examination either to-day j or to-morrow, to be held here or nt liranite., 1 tmk mail si-:i:vjc;;. . . Our mail sendee is not as satisfactory satisfac-tory as it has been. We have been receiving a daily mail at this place, but this was owing to tho aeeommo-; aeeommo-; dating disposition of Parlin Si Tbomp-" Tbomp-" ' son, and other's who have the con-, con-, tract, which only calls . for tri-weekly 1 service. Parlin it Thompson and the ; rest of the public carriers now refuse to cany a daily mail without an in-1 in-1 crease of pay. Wc "cannot blame these gentlemen, as (heir favui lo the , community in the past cannot he ibr-1 ibr-1 gotten. A petition is in cireuiation, praying for a daily mail service. Our camp is large and pnspemun, containing con-taining a population of at least J,"nN.l people, t'nc great majority of whom are an intelligent reading and writing community.
