Dpns' Theology.

Many years ago some jealous bigots,
who wanted a little n%otoriety, pub
lished a ''yaller kivered' edition of
some extracts from "Peter Dens' The
ology." 1t was a garbled affair, and
being translated for this purpose from
the Latin, it was translated very freely.
The writer remembers it very well,
though published many years ago. 1t
had no effect at the time except upon
the weak minds of the parties tor
whom it was published, and we sup.
posed it had passed into oblivion like
any other sensation pamphlet; but no,
it has resurrected, and Is now adver-
tisei and for sale by the Jolly Giant.
God help the cause that has to resort
to such a medium and to such ends
for support. Dens' was, and is, prob
ably, a standard authority in the
Church.; but, like many other things
connected with church history, it
originated in an age when everything
it contains was not only proper but
necessary. What artist to-day would
dare to paint such a picture as the
TRANSPORTATION ;'but that picture holds
its place among the pieces,
Notwithstanding all the transgression
of modern rules of composition. sc
does 'Dens' Theology" and so do many
more things of the past. Religion an6
morals stand on other bases than The
| jolly Giant, or "Dens' Theology
either, and we ask the public to ia
boo all such trash.

Astern Escape.

The prisoner Newell, who passed
through Eureka en- route to Carson in
charge of Sheriff Huyck, of Nye coun'
ty, is a desperate fellow and evidently
would rather die than go to the State
Pison. He has made several attempts
to commit suicide. His latest feat was
a bold dash for liberty in the streets OF
Reno. The Carson Tribune says 4:
| 'sSheriff w. Ii. Huyck and Deputy
| Sheriff d. A. Hopkins, of Nye county,
arrived in Carson at noon and deliv-
cred at the State Prison William New
ell. convicted in their county of the
crime of rape, and sentenced to twenty
years Imprisonment, and John
Schoore, sentenced under the new law
to six months Imprisonment for IL
legally branding cattle. On arriving
at Reno on Saturday night, Newell,
having loosened his shackles, made a
break down the street and both ohcers
commenced blazing at him. He ran
down Virginia street and up an aiiey
way, the officers firing at their fugitive
as he run. He was finally captured
and secured. Some seven shots were
fred, and only for the darkness OF the
night he would undoubtedly havt
been killed."

An excited individual rushed into
one of the drug stores yesterday and
demanded four bits worth of arsenic
as quick as possible. The clerk MOTTO
ing the mans wild demeanor hesitated
about selling him the poison, and made
inquiries as to what use he was going
to Put it. The man replied that he
wanted to kill some rats that infested
his cabin, and the reply confirmed the
druggists suspicious, as it is a we'll
known fact that there is not a rat in
this vicinity. Concluding that he
would give the would be suicide a les
son, he done up a small package of
tartar emetic and handed it over to the
customer who deprated for his cabin.
About an hour after ward some men
passing by were attracted to the dug
out by the fearful grOans emanating
from within and found the poor fellow
fearfully sick and endeavoring to turn
his stomach inside out. Between the
spasms he explained that he had taken
a dose of poison and begged them
to run for a doctor, which they
Immediately did. That person soon
appeared on the scene, armed with a
stomach pump, and applied that in
strument. A careful examination
failed to find any traces of arsenic, and
after a thorough pumping out, the
doctor left his patient comparatively
easy, and wendell his way to the drug
store where the dose had been pro.
cured. An explanation followed, and
the doctor felt no further alarm as to
his PATIENTS condition. The man,
whose name is John Draper, gave his
reasons for his foolish attempt, and
stated that he had received a letter
from his old home in Iowa, conveying
the intelligence that his wife had
eloped with another individual, taking
his only child with her, and that the
letter had wrought up his feelings to
such an extent that he determined to
make away with his life. He still sup
posed that he took a dose of arsenic,
and is loud in his praise Of the doctors
skill and ability in snatching him from
the verge of the grave.
