THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION, SEPTEMBER 20 1881. DIED IN THE DESERT. THE REMAINS OF A MISSING MAN FOUND NEAR PANAMINT. Sad Fate of Captain H. W. Olllespie, an Old Pros pector, and a Former Cltiten of Georgia??? Starred to Death and Eaten By Coyotes ???A Traced? of the Desert, Sun Francisco Examiner. On the ftth of August an item appeared in the Examiner concerning the disappearance of Captain If. \V. Gillespie, a well known mining prospector, who left this city on the 2nd of July la??t for Inyo county, to locate mines for Frank Parks A Brother of this city. It was stated at the time that a letter from Wells A Fargo's agents at Darwin, expressed the opinion that Mr. Gillespie, who had left that place on the 25th for Slate Range, about twenty-live miles distant, had probably lost his way in the mountains, and that a party had been organized and had left that place to search for the missing man. A letter re ceived here yesterday from the express agent, dated at Darwin, August *15tb, gives the result of the search and the find ing of the body of the missing man, as fol lows: ???The party was composed of Frank Fitzgerald, John Palvo, T. Wibbett and two Indians. After five days search for Captain Gillespie his trail was found going in the di rection of the mouth of Panamint canyon. We followed the trail until it led into the salt marsh. Here the parties divided. Palvo and Wibbett leading the animals around the marsh. Fitzgerald and Indian Tom followed the trail on foot across the marsh and to firm ground be yond until it reached the main road, leading up to Panamint canyon. Here the trail was h??sf, hut we found it again about two hundred yards further on, at the first mesquit tree, where lie had stopped and eaten mesquit 1 >eans. From this jaunt all tracks were lost for that day (August 13th), and ourselves and animals, being out of provisions, feed, etc., we were compelled to go to Panamint for sup plies. We renewed the search the next morning, assisted by Indians Tom and Jim, and at 8:20 a. m. the hotly was found nliout a mile southwest of Hot Springs, Pana- 1'iint valley, Inyocounty. The hotly was nearly nude of clothing from the waist ifp. His face was eaten up by coyotes; also the right arm close to the shoulder. We dug a grave ns close to the body as possible, and there turned it in with pick and shovel; but previous to doing so, we wrapped the body in a blanket. Before interring the hotly we cut the pantaloons pockets of the deceased and found a purse containing coin ($80 in gold), a pistol, pair of eyeglasses, pair of goggles ami a jiocket-knife; also the remnants of a jiockct-lionk and scraps of paper that had been eaten bv the coyotes, all of which have been delivered to J. F.???Fiel der, agent of the express company at Darwin. By the appearance of the body it must have lain there for at least ten day???s. We btnied t lie body at I! p. m., August 14th. On account of the decomposed state of the corpse it was an utter ini]Hissihility to move it tonny point of interment, as the nearest cemetery is about eleven miles distant.??? Captain Gillespie was <>2 years of age at the time of his death, and was weH and favorably known in California andXcvada for his sterling qualities of mind and heart. He was a mem ber of the Masonic fraternity, having reached the high position of knight commander. He was a pioneer of this state, arriving here shortly after the close of the Mexican war, in which lie participated. He was also one of the earliest settlers of the state of Nevada and a pioneer of the Comstock, at one time owning the Bloomington ranclie, "wjiicj),???, iiijy . claimed, .. covered the present side of Virginia City and Gold Hill. At the beginning of the war of the rebellion Mr. Gillespie warmly esjamseU the cause of the confederacy, and raised a company in Nevada at his own expense, Vtitli which he went to Texas, accompanied by General Al lien Sydney Johnston ami Dr. Sliowalter. He was engaged in many battles of, the war, and returned to this state at its close. He was honest and upright in all dealings and firm in his principles, lie was a native of Georgia, where two of his brothers now re side, one at Americus and the other in At lanta. SHOOTING AT GUITEAU. How the I???oor Coward Acted Coder Fire. Dispatch to Cincinnati Gazette. Washington, September It.???Another at tempt was made to-night to kill tlie assassin Guiteau. It is very probable that it was an insane freak, hut the intention of the soldier who lirnl the shot was, from his standpoint, well meant. It seems that for some days there had been talk among the soldiers detail ed to guard the wretch as to who should take a shot at him whenever lie presented himself _ at the window of his cell. The prisoner???s cell hoiks out through another window on the outside corridor, and was plainly perceptible to the guards who watched the eastern side of the jail. The duty of tiring a shot at Guiteau. it appears, fell to the lot of Sergeant John A. Mason, of com pany 1??. 2d artillery, and he prepared for it when lie was ordered with other soldiers to leave the arsenal to go to the jail and perform guanl duty. The wagon loads of soldiers left the arsenal. Sergeant Mason was in the last wagon. He was noticed liy some of ins companions to fumble "with the lock of his ritie, and act strangely, . but nothing was said, as the sergeant had been drinking during the day, and none in the wagon were aware of the duty lie had lieen culled on to fulfill, and when the wagon drew up to the rear of the jail Mason was the first to alight. He pushed hurriedly through a group of several persons standing'around, and reaching a small hillock about three feet from where the horses stood, lie brought his rifle to liis shoulder, took a steady aim at the well known window of Guiteau opposite, shouted, ???there he is!??? and fired. The report of the rifle attracted attention, and before the smoke had cleared away twenty soldiers were col lected around Mason, and Private Davis said: ???In heaven???s name, man, why did you shoot???? ???I wanted to kill that wretch in there,??? was the answer. ???I have been on this thing for ten days, and I hope I have done the work in good style.??? Mason then walked toward his commanding officer, Captain McGilvary, saying. ???Captain, I have endeavored to kill*that dirty loafer in there. Here is my gun and bayonet, sir! run me in.??? Captain McGilvary was astonished. He liad heard the shot, and witnessed the excite ment, hut liad not dreamed of the inten tions of Mason. But when the latter came forward and made his acknowledgment, lie recognized that something serious had oc curred. and turned Mason over to the custody of two soldiers. About that time all was ex citement ami confusion. Prisoners who could who could look out of their windows and had been aroused, began to scream and sliout, and on tlie inside of the jail a scene of the greatest excitement prevailed. Warden Crocker and Deputy Busk, with several guards off duty, who were conversing ift the office of tlie jail, sprang to their feet when tlie report of the rifle rang through the corridor, and naturally believing what it meant, ran toward Guiteau???s cell. They found the latter on his knees, an expression of terror on his face. ???Great God.??? lie ex claimed,when General Crocker lookedjinto his cell, ???what do those men mean, anyway??? Do they mean to murder met??? ???Why, no; wliat are you taking about???? answered General Croaker, who had not learned wliat the trouble was. ???Well, just this,??? answered Guiteau: ???I have been shot at again. I was standing at- my window just now, when a shot was tired l??y one of those soldiers outside, tlie bullet Passed my ear and went through my coat hanging up there on tlie wall, cutting in pie ces the photo of my old mother.??? ???Did It strike you at all???? asked Crocker. 1 No. But, my God, it frightened me nearly to death.??? ???I will go out and find out about it,??? said Crocker, and lie proceeded by tlie back door to investigate. He found a* scene of confu sion as lie descended and learned why Mason had shot, and a brief consultation was held, during which it was agreed to inform Guiteau that the shooting was accidental. General Crocker went back to Guiteau???s cell with the message. Guiteau was as pale as a ghost when he approached the cell. He found Guiteau leaning against the liars, peering out anxiously. ???All, general,??? he said, when the warden returned, ???what have you learned???? ???This,??? sai dCroeker, ???that you have not been shot at all. One of the soldiers, ujion alighting from the wagon, discharged his weapon by accident, and I suppose it was tlie lrall that entered your cell. Don???t think for a moment, old fellow, that any shot at you.??? Guiteau took the explanation quietly* hut, as General Crocker said afterward, there was a suspicious look in his eyes, and lie fell hack from his door and took a seat upon his cot, as though lie was thinking. ???1 went out of the office,??? said General Crocker, ??????and liad a talk with the guards, and we came to the conclusion that Guiteau had lictter lie removed to another cell. AVe removed him. AVe took him down to the old cell occupied by Jim Stone, who was hanged for murdering liis wife, ami you ought to have heard him kick. He thought, in the face of an explanation, that lie liad been shot at by accident; that liis sudden removal was very strange, hut we pacified him, and took him over to liis new cell.??? ???Wliat did they do with Mason???? ???Oh, they took that crank down to the arse nal, and placed him under a strong guard, and I don???t believe he will ever attempt to shoot a man again.??? ???AVhat did Guiteau say after lie got into his new quarters???? ???Not a word, except to complain that he was not allowed a better view from the win dow.??? ???There is no chance for his being shot at again???? ??????Not the least. He is safe.??? AVlien Sergeant Mason was being driven through the streets on his way to the arsenal a crowd gathered at the corner of Third street ami Pennsylvania avenue and gave him a hurrah. They had evidently heard what lie had done, hut lie lay hack between two stout shoulders, and would say nothing. AVlien tlie news became public to-night it created a sen sation, and very many people regretted that Mason's shot had missed its mark. THE THREE FIENDS. There were three demons came out of the deep; Fiends that blighted the eyes to see: That frightened the dreamer out of his sleep, And chilled the heart with a sudden leap. And numbed tlie brain with their stealthy creep, A ghastly, terrible, horrible three. ???War??? was one, and his sable plume Shadowed a face that was cruel as hate: He awakened the dawn with the sullen boom Of murderous guns; like a pall of gloom Iluug the smoke of his breath, and pitiless doom His mailed hands held like a soulless fate. Life was his meat and his drink was gore; Ked to his knees he walked in blood; Laughed as he raged down the carmine shore, liaising liis voice in the horrid roar And shrieks of liis victims, as more and more They swelled the ghastly flood. And ???Rum??? was another one, grislv and grim; Cruder, ten times told than you'd think; Misery poisoned its beaker???s brim, Death eternal, and hate, and sin. Want and woe: he poured them in. And gave to the world to driuk. His victims were numberless as the sands, Maiden and youth and hoary age: The wisdom and courage of many lands. Hearts of manhood, and dimpled hands, They came to his death feast, ghostly bands, AVeak fools and the strong-minded" sage. And tlie third???be came with n goldin smile; Gentle and kind he seemed to be; But tlie heart of the fiend was full of guile. In his merriest moments all the while His thoughts were cruel, his plans were vile; He was tlie worst of the three. At feast and wedding he sat elate. With luscious lips he kissed the bride: He petted the little, he pleased the great. While he wrecked the home and destroyed the state, With the sway like the rule of an iron fate, That you couldn???t resist if you tried. Oh. woe was the home where he entered in! He darkened the hearthstone that he stood by; And faces pale, and wan, and thin. Looked up in fear at his mocking grin. And the victims knew, as they scooped him in, - They were hopeless slaves of the demon ???Pie.??? ???Burlington Haivkeve. ??? An -E.thctlc Wife.

Peter was crucified at Koine, and at his own requests, with his head downward. Andrew was crucified by being hound to a cross with cords, on which lie hung two days, exhorting the people until he expired. James the Great was beheaded by order of Herod, of Jerusalem. James the Less was thrown from a high pin nacle. then stoned, and finally killed with a fuller's club. Philip was hound and hanged against a pil lar. Bartholomew was flayed to death by com mand of a barbarous king. Matthew was killed by a halbert. Thomas, while at prayer, was shot with a shower of lances, and afterward run through the body with a lance. Simon was crucified. Thaddeus was cruelly put to death. Tlie manner of Matthias's deatli is uncer tain. One says lie was stoned, then beheaded; another says lie was crucified. Judas Iscariot fell and liis bowels gushed out. John died a natural death. Paul was beheaded by order of Nero. ODDS AND ENDS. There are 10,000 clerks in the AVashington de partment. A LOCOMOTIVE drinks forty-five gallons of water every mile it travels. It is saiil that dwarfs die of premature old age and giants of exhaustion. The greatest mortality of mankind is between 3 and 6 o???clock in the morning. The British house of lords owns one-fifth of the land in the United Kingdom. There are one liandred and ten telegraph wires between Philadelphia and New A???ork. There arc 1,300 square miles of ice in the Alps from eighty to six hundred feet thick. One man has gathered one hundred thousand pounds of dried clover blossoms out west for some famous ???remedy.??? THE SCARCITY OF CORN. A TALK ON THE SUBJECT WITF JUDGE HILLYER. After a Trip Through the North and West. He De clares the Crop to be a Host Lamentable Failure, and Advises Our People to Husband Every Blade of Grass. It will be remembered that some time ago Senator Brown, after a trip to and from Little Rock, Arkant sas, wrote a letter to Tue Constitition advising the farmers to save all that was possible on their farms, as the com crops of the country through which he had passed were very short, and there would be a great scarcity of com and high prices would prevail. On yesterday a representative of The Constitution met Judge George Ilillyer, who has just returned from an extensive trip through the northwest. He said: ???I- have been anxious to see you because I have something that I think should be said through your paper to the farmers of Georgia.??? ???AVhat is it???? ???1 have traveled in the past month through ti\e upper neck of Michigan, Illinois and the greaf northwestern com country. I canto on south through the corn belt of Kentucky; through Tennessee on to Atlanta. I then went up to Spartanburg, across toward Asheville and returned. In alljray travels I was carefully observant, and I say delib erately that I never saw a single acre of com that in my opinion would yield ten bushels to the acre. I rode through miles and miles of corn fields tliat would not yield a peek to the acre. It was literally scorched and i??irvhed until it scarcely looked like com. In the com belt of Kentucky, I found that affairs were even worse than in the northwest. The Kentucky river was coated with what looked like a heavy scum,and tlie Cumberland in places was only a few inches deep. The drouth has been fearful,and the effect on the crops is terrible to contemplate.??? ??? ???Vou think that there will be a great scarcity of com???? ???I do. Governor Brown, a short time ago, trav eled from the cast to the west, and reported that the com crop was almost wholly destroyed. My course was irom the north to the south, through the best corn sections, and I found the same state of affairs. I think the crop will be very short. There are cX^- perts in the markets who talk of a large reserve that is held at a distance from the railroads and that high prices will bring out. I know noth ing of this, hut I do know that the crop for the present year will be lamentably short, and I fear that there will be great scarcity and cor respondingly high prices.??? ???AVhat is your advice in the premises ???? ???My advice is that the funnels should husband every blade of grass that they have on their farmsA The equluoxial gale brought heavy and gcncrau rains. These rains will bring out very fully the crab grass that is to found on all our soil. The land having failed to produce the corn crop has had comparative rest and" will produce a heavy grass crop. There is no 1 >etter hay than our ordinary grass if it is only gathered at the right time and projierly cured; it should he gathered when tire seeds are ripe and after the first frost has fallen. It can he easily cured and makes good food for stock. I know the value of grass as a food for stock, as I never knew it before, since I have been through Canada on this trip.. I saw comparatively little wheat in the dominion, hut I saw grass farms covering hundreds of acres and I noticed through the grass country the finest stock and cuttle awl iloeks that I ever saw, and the appearance of??? thrift, pros perity and health everywhere. It made me a great believer in grass and in grass farming. There never was a time when our people needed so imperatively to save every thing that they can use a substitute for com as at present, mid if they arc wise they will heed this warning and prepare for a haul winter. I trust T am no alarmist, hut I have never felt so called upon, to give to the public what I know and have seen o! the com crop.??? WARNER???S SAFE CUKE. THE FENCE QUESTION.

Stopping at one of tlie hotel at Hemlock lake, in New York, was a man who was somewhat boastful of his adventures and of the courage he had displayed on several trying occasions. The other young men of the hotel made a laughingstock of him and resolved to humiliate him thoroughly for what was. after all, only a little harmless lying. The opjiortnnity came when the supposed braggart invited a young lady to take a carriage ride with him. The practical jokers, disguising themselves with masks, hid in a lonely spot on the road, and as their would-be victim passed rushed out and de manded hismonevorhislife. Theygotneither, but one received a bullet in the body and another had his arm broken by the same unerring aim.
