The Beach Tragedy

Deputy Sheriff Hickey returned last evening from Skull valley, having
in custody George Young, who is accused of the killing of C. W. Beach.
Young has not made any statements, and neither denies or admits the
killing, although he talks freely of the injury done him by the
deceased. He was found by the deputy at this home in Skull valley, and
submitted to arrest without any resistance. His preliminary
examination is set for hearing on Saturday, September 22st, at 10
o'clock.

Mrs. Beach arrived on to-day's train, but the arrangements for the
funeral has not yet been announced, but will probably take place to-
morrow. The remains of the deceased were taken to-day to the residence
of Mr. and Mrs. j. M. More (sic) from where the funeral will take
place.

Geo. H. Curry received a telegram yesterday from Mr. Comstock, a
partner of Mr. Beach in the stock business, authorising him to take
charge of his property.
