FURMAN's GHOST continues to excite
the people of Paradise Valley. The
spectre is said to appear regularly every
night, and though inoffsnsive, is looked
upon with fear and trembling by several
who were permitted to see it. In our
local columns We give the substance OF
conversation between it and Wesley
Antram. well known in Winnemucca
That the ghost is humbug, there can
be no doubt whatever, and it il strange
that in this matter fact day, and in
an intelligent community. somebody
does not investigate the matter by cap.

and what it is, and by what means il

day, with no hunger or thirst. 1t con-
tinued calm all that day and night. At
8 A. NJ. of the 9Th, heard noise, and
on looking out of my box, saw the
light of steamer nearime. / hallooed
as loud as 1 could, and was heared by
those on board. They lowered boat
and rescured me from my perilous sltu-
alton. I was taken aboard, and all my
wants supplied by the officers and
crew. 1 was taken to Neah Bay, and
kindly cared for by Mr.. Huntington,
the Indian Agent.
In addition to the above we learn
from the pilot, who brought up the
bark John Bunyon, that several bodies
have been recovered. Among them
MIR. Vining. of Tacoma; the second
steward and lady, supposed to be
Mrs. Lawson, of Victoria.
The latest from Neah Bay says the
Gussie Telfair, which arrived here en-
Tuesday, joined in the search with
the revenue cutter Oliver Walcott, and
when close to- Neah Bay, she picked
up three bodies, one of which was a
woman, wearing ring marked g L.
H." She is supposed to be Mrs. Law
sen of Victoria. On the same day the
Walcott picked up two trunks, enc of
which was lady's, and contained
valuable wearing apparel. The other
was evidently the trunk of the man
who had been exhibiting how to tame
horses, as the straps and other articles
are what he used. One Of the bodies
IS that of George Vining, of Puyallup,
who had on his person bills of lodins
for hops shipped by him at Tacoma.
1t is evident that all who had life pre-
servers on did not live twelve hours
after the wreck, as the sea was very
rough, with cold wind and rain.

AN INTERESTING LEGAL POINT.

The Supreme Court of California has
just decided an interesting legal point,
the facts of which are as follows: Two
years ago Lloyd Bell killed Owen Gillen
in San Francisco, by chopping his head
off with an ak. The jury found Bell
guilty of manslaughter, and recon-
mended him to the mercy of the Court.
He was sentenced to seven years in the
penitentiary. His counsel asked the
Court to charge the jury with the fact
that defendant had proved previous
good character. The Court refused to
do so, and on this refusal the case was
carried to the Supreme Court on a writ
of error. The Supreme Court reversed
the Judgment of the Court below, say
ing: 1T is important in every criminal
case, and especially SO when TIE incul-
patory proof is circumstantial in it's
character, that the jury should be in
structed, if the prisoner so requests,
that in determining whether or not lie
is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. h s
good reputation. if he have such, as TO
traits involved in the charge, should be
weighed AS any other fact established,
and that it may be sufficient to create
reasonable doubt as to his guilt"
Bell is granted a new trial by the Su-
preme Court. and is to be tried again
for murder. This time he may be con-
victed of murder in the first degree or
set free.

Marrying Cousins.
From the Cincinnati Gazette.

a report of the London Times
made Mr.. George Darwin say, in his
paper on cousin marriages, that OF
s, ITO lunatics and idiots in various
asy lums in England and Wales, 4 ,30S
are offsprings of first cousins. Mr..
Darwin corrects this fearful state
ment, which would make out that
when CO usins marry they have an
even chance to bring forth idiots or
lunatics fact which would be suffi-
GENTLY apparent to the common mind
to frighten cousins from thoughts Of
coupling He says that what he did
write was that the parentage of 4 1903
OF these $40 was ascertaiDed with
moro or less accuracy, and that about
81 per cent. of these we're offsprings
of first cousins; and that out of 5l4
patients in Scotland, 81 per cent. were
found to be offsprings of first cousins
We suspect that the attempt To
scare cousins from thoughts of love
by statistics of idiotic consequences
has led to large evaporation. Ii we

man society, aud upon The marriages

lies to keep together in this way, We
shall have to wonder that the mar
riages of blood relations have not
turned all mankind to idiots and
lunaties. Surely they would if the
causes now so fearfully shown by
statistics had always been operative.
The Jews, especially, would have
been exiting uished ages ago, Ike the
Aztecs. But figures, though they
cannot lie, are most convenient TO
any purpose. and they who run
greatly to statistical showings. are
liable to lose PERCEPTION of truth.
Inasmuch as society has in this
matter made the progency a cause
for interfering with instinct and 10
clination 10 marriage, and has actual
ly gone so far in the state OF ONO
as to forbid the marriage OF first
cousins, would it not be rational to
widen the scope of its supervision a
little and to exercise ordinary intel
ligence with regard to other mar
riages in which the physiological
likeness of the parents, or the in
firmities of one or both, give reason,

minds or bodies? Marriages are be-
ing contracted and contaminated
continually, in the view CT parents
and society, which every intelligent
person knows cannot bring forth
healthy children. But parents throw
the responsibility of these on Provl-
dence, and when the miserable fruit
is realized the preacher tslks of His
