gB A young woman committed suicide
lately in Boulogne France, who two years
ago shone conspicuously in the titled socie-
ty of Berlin. She was the wife of the Rus
sian Secretary of Legation, to whom she
had been betrothed while in Paris con-
vent school. They lived at great expense
and the woman rivalled the members of
the royal family in the costliness of her
jewels. As their resources diminished the
husband plunged into stock speculations,
and became bankrupt. The wife, unwil-
ling to endure poverty, eloped with a
princely admirer, who in a short time
abandoned her. Deprived of resources, she
gave herself up to dissipation in Paris, and
weary of life, finally shot herself Her
husband, who belonged to the Society of
the Red Cross, was at Bucharest, in charge
of hospital for soldiers.

In a Doomed Village.

A letter written from Memphis on the
10th ult., gives vivid description of the
condition of Grenada, The writer says
that twelve houses to the right and seven
TO the left of his home were deserted, and
for hours together not a person was seen
stirring in once happy neighborhood.
The groceries were closed, nearly all of
their proprietors having fallen victims to
the scourge. Being assured by physicians
that one who has recovered from yellow
fever is exempt from it ever afterward, the
writer tried to find his acquaintances and
assist them. He says
81 saw at least ten of them dead, and
scores of them dying, or slowly awaiting
the crisis of the epidemic. 1t was appal-
ling to behold young and old women hud-
died together in some by-way, trembling,
praying, sobbing, and casting despairing
glarces in every direction, not knowing
whittier to go. Mothers abandoned their
stricken children wives fled in terror from
their afflicted husbands. All the ties of
kindred seemed to be too frail to withstand
the pressure of fear and despair. The
loved ones were left in strange hands Ne
groes and negresses who had had the fever
proved very useful in some instances but
many of them took advantage of the situa-
tion and asked exorbtant compensation for
their services on account of the scarcity of
the Howard nurses. | saw as many as
three white nurses seized with the shakes
and even vomiting while in the discharge
of their duties. Three days ago l saw a
man leaning against wooden fence. l
was about to pass on, thinking he was only
under the influence of drink, but hearing
him moan and say, 'Oh, my God = / ap-
preached him and found that it was unmis-
takably case of yellow fever. assisted
him to one of the tents near the police
station, where l fear he is to be among the
list of victims. do not believe that one
third of the cases of fever in its most ma
lignant type among the negroes have been
reported. | thought it my duty to report
to DR.. Becks, who, suppose, would refer
the matter to the authorities, the many
horrible sights l had witnessed in some OF
tue negro cabins, where, in some cases,
whole families were Frustrated by the fever
even three in bed in two instances,
and dying children sprawling on the floor.
" | cannot omit mentioning the heoroism
of the Sisters of Charity. Their ministra-
tiCns are tireless their tempers are never
rufied in the least by sleepless nights,
spare diet and constantly attending to the
pettish demands of the sick and witnessing
the agonies of the dying. Where they
sleep or eat l could not divine. saw the
same faces around day and night, and
again at dawn. They carry medicines
about with them, work like bees in disin-
fecting houses, and have a magical faculty
of raking up clean linen and bedclothes in
out-of-the-way places. saw several cler-
gymen who were behaving in very dsin-
terested way, one of whom had not re-
moved his clothes for three consecutive
nights. 1t is not possible to describe the
narrowing incidents of the fatal pestilence
at Grenada. 1t is blighted, forsaken, and
doomed town.

A fORGER.

The Bodie Star!ort Of Friday tells the fol
lowing story:
We are iuformed of case Of forgery which
occurred here last night (ihursdaYl, i man,
whose name we suppress III pity ana synpsthy
10 his former correct standing aud habits,
called at ellison & BARRIERS store yesterday
afternoon and requested the favor Of q blank
check on the BDdie Bank Nothing was
thought Of this circumstance as it was mat
ter of frequent occurrences, but subsequent
events proved the affair to be more serious
than first supposed. About O'Clock last ev-
5nIug one OF the attaches of faro game al
McDermott 81 Culien's saloon came over to
George ellison and presented check signed
ellison IL Barber, per f. Hessel. and asked
# it genuine. The forgery Was 50 pain
that any one at all familiar with the hand
writing would at once have pronounced it I
forgery, and, uuhesitatingly, ellison So said.
Accompanying the attaChe, the latter went to
the game and took the forger from the table
He owned up to the fact of having forged the
check and earnestly requested to be prose
cuted, saying he deserved to be sent to prison
FOR life for having thus dissracud himself and
family. In the goodness of his heart ellison
allowed him to 20 with kind words of advice
and caution. The wretched man explains the
matter by stating that gambling had become
mania with hun; that for years he had de
voted every cent of his earnings to the
knights of the green cloth; was reduced to
misery and despair by his repeated losses and
in d fit of desperation had forged the name of
mon who had been friendly toward him. The
generosity OF the act in allowing him to go
free was this morning fully appreciated by
the unfortunate man. We hope this mag act
As a warning to him and that he may choose
new path to follow through the remainder
,f his existence.

THE WHITE PINERS.

During the past month or two, while one
half of White Pine County has been turning
States evidence against the other half, and
the moro enterprisine part of the population
Of that shire have been getting their repre-
resentative men booked for more comfortable
quarters for the remainder of their woe begone
aud misspent lives, it has been evident to the
close observer that there is an effort making,
ON the part of the government to destroy the
only profitable industry carried on within the
lines of that bailiwick. For what induce
ment can there possibly be to live IN White
Pine County If one may not rob stage when
occasion requires2 What excuse can an in
dustrious and energetic man have for living
there if he is thus to be prosecuted forcarrying
on the only reinunerative business ever orga-
nlzed there2 Apropos to this subject see
what the Cherry Greek white Pine County,
Independent has to say-in its own peculiar
and original manner of expressing itself
concerning another branch If the same in
lustry and its lamentable decadence;
Fourteen Mormon teams put mp at Wearne $
corral one night last week Their loads Of
miscellaneous produce was all disposed of in
| nur +own. As all thse sales by these Egyp-
! Trans was for cash, it is, in view of how PEG
pie howl about hard times, astonishing
where all the money comes from. Didn't
think our town wealthy. Several Thousand
lnllars it has taken to buy up the Mormon
| truck coming to Cherry Creek the last month.
These Mormuns are extremely cautious about
getting their money bacl. to Utah, and accord
ingly exchange it for bank checks. The time
was when they did not or could not make
this exchange, that the robbing of these by
the road agents on their way home was con
| sidered sort of privilege, and they resorted
to all kinds of devices to secret their money
about their persons or their wagons. Con
| nected with this rohbing of Murmons, there
was All individual living on a ranch some con
siderable distance south of this who had a
! prominent reputation. Many was the pous
saint despolied of the fruits OF his summer 5
| labor, in the vicinity of this mans place,
| until at last a Mormon would no more pass
that way than he would meet a squad of
Basha Bazouks As the seasons would roll
around and the saints freighted themselves
| and started for Nevada. it would always de
rend upon this mans still living at the old
place as to whether or not the Mormons went
around by the way OF Bearings Strait.
And now, what with the opportunities for
evasion of the customs afforded by this
abominable Bearings Strait, and the Fed
eral interference sanctioned by Judge Hillyer,
the county of White Pine seems destined to
ne depopulated or starved, One can only
account for the sleek and robust proportions

bloated Federal official and has at least one

A BATTLE MOUNTAIN WIFE.

The Battle Mountain Messenger makes the
following contribution to the Conscience
Fund:
We know man in this town who is al
ways prasing his wife. On the corner, down
the street, at the post-office, school house,
depot, express office, in the SAL that Is,
the choir meeting, he was always telling what
happy man he was, just because he has
such a splendid wife, and he talked every
man he met into perfect frency Of envy
about her. Well, the other molnng, when
1t was not vet too light to make one appear
ostentatious, we sneaked into that neighbor $
yard to steal board for kindling, and had
to wait until that mans wife came out and
sawed a couple of armfuls of wood, fed and
groomed horse, and cleaned out the cow
shed, and then she went into the house and
we heard her call to her husband that the
sitting room was warm enough for him to
dress in if he wanted to get up. We were so
amazed that We forgot what we were waiting
for and went back and kindled the fire with
sage brush and pint of kero sene.
