RREuAA1Ic.-Chief Jones, (

RREuNA1Ic.-Chief Jones, Of the
Gold Hill Fire Department, who has
been down to the Hot Springs the
last week In search of his health or
something else, says the institution Is
full Of folks crippled up with rheum-
atism In some shape or other. Whe-
Their they come there In that fix, or
get fixed that way after they come,
and SO have to stay, Jones don't state.
Our Jolly friend Davis, Of the Column
bus Brewery, went down there at the
same time Jones did, after some
more health, and he went for a steam
bath the first thing. lie cooked his
old carcass for an hour, but not
sweating properly to his notion, he
went right of and took a shower bath
of ice water. Then he steamed 1t
for awhile longer, to kill out all re-
naming yestiges of disease. and.
strange to say, has been o perfect
rheumatic wreck ever since. AS soon
a he can crawl he will get into 4 mud
bath. He swears those springs are
wonderful. Jones derived n vast
amount Of benefit from them, but Is
worse Of now than when he went, ow-
Ing to the change in coming back:
Thinks he will have to go there ana
and reside permanently. IA there IS no
living away from those cripples. His
description Of the last ball at the
Springs Is good.

came down from the Divide In q hurry
after DR.. Hall. saying that a man up
there had been taking poison and was
In a bad way. The doctor hurried up
there as fast a possible, to the house
occupied BY the victim and his wife.
There he found the man rolling about
on q mattras spread on the kitchen
floor and apparently in great trioula-
ton. The doctor gave him some med
icins az soon IS possible. although the
man now said he had taken no poison,
for no wa not going all the way up
there without doing something. Inc
wife did not seem TO be badly worried
o2er the matter, aud the doctor anne
70 tho conclusion from what the neigh
bors said that jealousy was the worst

last accounts the patient was alive and
not liable TO pass In his checks just yet.
