Brutal Murder.

A special dispatch to the san Fran
cisco Chronicle gives the following par
ticulars of a most brutal murder which
occurred at Palisade last Sunday even
ing: l.,
Last night about II o'clock the usual
quiet Of this place was disturbed oy an
affray In a saloon back of the depot,
which resulted in one Of the most cold
bloodcd murders that has ever zen
perpetrated by a white man In TINS
State. On fastening to the spot, o
man named James Eldield was dlscoV.
cred lying on the floor in a dying state;
The blood pouring from his breast n
head covered the barroom moor Q
space of two feet around him, causing
his death In a few moments.
His murderer was found secreted
under o freight wagon, and was ar
rested by a citizen and lodged IN the
calaboose. where he gave his name as
George Oades, and stated that he had
been a longshoreman, working ON YES
sells between San Francisco and Fort
land for the last nine years.
An examination by a Coroner's jury
this morning discovered ten stabs ON
the body Of the murdered man., any OF
which would have caused death. His
right breast was slasaed and stabbed
fearfully, the lung being visible. An
other stab entered his cheek, pene-
trating down through the lower jaw.
A cut t%ransversed his scalp from ear to
ear, and was a most CHASTITY sight. He
also received q stab through the right
arm. What made the murder more
~atrocious was the fact that the cutting
was done over the suppliant body Of
his wife, who was vainly attempting
to protect her husband from the fury
of this fiend. Her shrieks rang out In
the still night, startling people from
their beds, and had not the murderer
been strongly guarded he would have
been lynched OH the spot. He Is q
Misunderstanding wretch, and has
been, judging from the tattoolng on his
arms and breast, on an English man.
of-war. The weapon which was taken
from him was q large butcher knife
with al eight-inch blade. He pro-
fesses to know nothing Of the affair.
He was sent to Eureka by this after
moons stage. heavily ironed, to await
the action of the Grand Jury.

SCHOOL DISCIPLINE.

One day last week the lady teacher
who presides over the public school on
the Divide, within the jurisdiction Of
Gold Hill, had occasion to punish one
of the scholars, a little girl, for INSIDE
meanor. The child was very obstin-
ate, ill-tempered and saucy, and made
use Of bad language toward the teach
er, calling her bad names. In punish
ing the refractory pupil a rattan was
used, and, as might be expected, a few
reddish marks were made, although
the blows given were not severe. The
mother Of the child was very indignant
when she found what had been done.
and went around showing the neigh
bors the marks Of punishment. She
subsequently caused the teacher to DO
arrested OF the ground Of assault and
battery, and the case was tried before
ajury in Justice Wright's court, Gold
Hill, yesterday. The evidence showed
so plainly that the teacher was fully
justified, aud the punishment not unu-
sually severe, that on motion Of the
District Attorney q noAe proseqai was
entered and the case was finally dis
missed with the costs, ST so, taxed to
the complaining witness.
Although not altogether approving
of such corporal punishment, having
been bountifully subjected to 1t in our
little brooches days, when that grim
old schoolmaster thought nothing OF
Jerking a little shaver out Of his seat BY
the left ear, and MASKING him into
helpless subsection with a hickory
~crowbar; yet school discipline must be
maintained by some The young
Americans of Washoe are quite as un-
ruly and difficult to manage as In 9TH
or parts Of the country, and parents
should aid the teachers all possible,
instead Of detrimentally interfering.
"Spare the rod and spoil the child"
Is a time-honored saying-perhaps
more honored in the breach than the
observance-yet there are occasions
when the teacher is compelled to adopt
vigorous measures, in order to main
tain proper authority, respect, and
beneficial subordination. The teacher
must be sustained in all reasonable
measures, as chief authority in the
school II not competent In that, rs
welt as other respects, the remedy is
plain. Some parents object to their
children being punished at all in any
manner by a school teacher. Such
parents had better keep and teach
their children at home.

The people Of the Muddy and Los
Vegas, both whites and Indians, are
very much opposed to the estabiisl'
ment of a reservation In that section:
the Indians are especially averse to
the proposition. The Indians sustain
themselves by honest labor; they are
industrious and frugal, and have now
slowed away large quantities Of food
from last years crops. They argue
that the presence OF white settlers
among them stimulates the Indians to
industrious habits and prevents de-
moralizatlon among them.

The best game Of bluff we have
known Of for many n day was that
played by Dick Paddock, last Satur-
day, in stopping the prize-fght be-
tween Trevillian and Hogan. 1t was
the most daring and successful ever at
tempted In this section. Without any
other authority than mere cheeky as
surance. induced, doubtless, by good
pay, Paddock bluffed at least n thous-
and men and won his game, taking his
life in his hand as he did so, for if 1t
had been suspected that he was falsely
personating a deputy L tied States
Marshal, he would have been revenge
fully slaughtered on the spot. Dick
was a success that time, but he can
never play the same gar:e again. The
worst point in the case. however, is
the effect this example may have upon
future occasions of the kind. 1t may
result In some good officer being killed
while in the discharge Of his duty.

The Value of BOrax in Colds.

Dr. j. w. Corson, of Orange N. j.,
has published some interesting notes
on the use of borax and nitrate OF
potass, in aiding the voice, as some
times required by singers, clergymen,
and public speakers. The value Of
nitre, or sal prunelle, has long been rec
ognized, and if it is increased by the
aid of borax the fact is worth know
ing. DIR. Corson sums up the result
of his inquiries as follows:
l. That in sudden hoarseness of loss
of voice in public speakers and singers,
from "colds," relief for an hour or so,
as by magic may be often obtained by
slowly dissolying and swallowing a
lump Of boraX the size ola garden pea
held in the mouth for ten minutes be-
fore speaking Or singing. This pro-
duces profuse secretion of saliva, or
watering" OF the mouth and throat.
1t probably restores the voice, or tone
to the dried vocal chords, just as "wet-
ting" brings back the missing notes to
a flute when it is too dry,
?. Such "colds" may be frequently
broken up at the very commencement;
and this restorative action ofthe borax
to the voice may be materially aided
by promptly taking the evening pre-
vious to a public effort, dissolved in a
glass of sweetened water, a piece Of
the nitrate Of potass, or saltpetre, a
little larger than a garden pea, on
going to bed, and covering with IN
extra blanket. Patient should keep
warm next day. This both moitcns
the throat and further relieves the
symptoms OF cold and slight blood
poisoning from suppressed perspiration
by reopening the millions Of pores of
the skin more or less closed by cold.
3. These remidies have the three re-
concentrations Of being easy to OBJ
tain, convenient to carry in travelling,
and perfectly harmless.
