There are many indications remaining

inside OF cartridge boxes, made OF Tin, can

A writer in the Herald Of Health makes a
strongc statement regarding the use Of
ripe fruit in diseases. We cannot say 1t is
not true and yet we should apply the
"fruit cure" with some precautions. He
says: "There is scarcely a disease to
which the human family is heir, but tho
sufferings thereirom would BIO greatly re-
lieved by the use OF the very fruits which
are now SO strictly forbidden. Further,
many Of these diseases would be conduct
ed to a safe termination under the free
use OF fruits, because Of the acids they
contain When our troops. were fighting
the Seminoles in Florida, many sick with
diarrhca and ~dysentery cured those dis
eases by stealing Ifromlthe hospital into
the fields and eating fruits, ~blackberries
especially. Since our very pleasant and
profitable excursion Of last month, j have
sent several children, suffering with
cholera infantum and with dysentery, to
the peach orchard, with most gratifying
results -and where they could not be car
ried to the orchard to pickiand leatthe
fruit fresh from the trees, / have had the
little sufferers fed.with sound fruit with
equally good results. In typhoid fever, in
the treatment OF which such extraordinary
care is enjoyed as regards diet fruits are
not only highly grateful to the patient, hut
even work very favorable results. Ia
physician who had7been sick some weeks
with typhoid fever says his diarrhea was
cured by peaches" He says: 81 first
ate the first halfofa large peach, and feel
ing no Ill effects, l ate the other half, and
then one or two more, and the next day as
many as / !desired.aRcHe 'adds:p nMy
bowels got better at once, and my recovery
was rapid" Since our last meeting, a typ
hold fever patient, who lad ,beengahout
three weeks sick, and though imploring,
was allowed no diet but beef tea or milk
punch, came under my care for or few
days. / Immediately ordered the free use
Of peaches and grapes, and the liarrhea at
once ceased, and at the end OF five days,
when / rellnquishedt tho care other, she
was eonvalescent. My impression Is, the
disease runs q shorter and more favorable
course under, the free use Of fruits than
under the usual methodtof treatment and
/ think the use OF stimulants rarely re-
quired when fruits are freely used. Inthe
treatment OF scarlet fever. and diphtheria,
our summer fruits and manyof the yege-
tables are most useful, and to the bestIof
these may be added some, or in fact, any
foreign fruits. There Is scarcely adiaease
accompanied with fever, but grapes and
bananas may be freely given to thepatient.
In the treatment Of dysenteryaI would
greatly prefer ripe, sound fruit, peaches
especially, to any medicine that can be
suggested.7 n .ll-MlLA Lntnny ..lR

II they buy for her the love l cannot win,
because lam not fair, and am poor and
without charms, let me not cherish evil
thoughts. oh, help me, pity me comfort
mel ,,s
I heard her weep, and I stole away.
Out in the open air, l stood still. Some:
thing had come to me-something that l
did not understand.
It was as when one born blind receives
his sight for the first time.
I went to the Ftte d9 RO1. What O
crowd was there! Around the great hall,
which was prepared for dancing, hung
evergreen boughs and artificial flowers.
The musicians had come. The girls
were oil on tip-toe with excitement, for
now four men staggered In, bearing the
great cake amongst them. +.
It was covered with frosting, and looked
like q mound Of snow. Pere Louis took
the knife to cut 1t. How quieklythe slices
OF cake flew from his hand to those most
eagerly extended for. theml
Each looked earnestly ut his cake. AS
he bit It some laughed, some scowled.
But suddenly l felt between my lips some
thing hard. l took 1t from my mouth. 1t
was the bean.
"Hurrah" 1 cried, ~ have it! I am
king"
Then Pere Louis shouted:
"Paul Le Moyne has the bean; he Is
king"
Then there was silence, and all eyes
turned upon me and then upon the girls
ranged in q row alongthe sides ofthe hall.
At the head OF the room stood Marcelle.
On her face was a supercilious smile.
AZ shall be chosen,,' It said, "and it will
be the kings place to be pleased, not
mine"
On the other girls faces ! saw q look OF
expectation. Many believed they might
be chosen queen as soon rs Marcelle.
But down apartin the shadow, her eyes
cast down, her hands folded humbly to-
'gether, I saw Mannette. She wassad, and
She needed smiles to beautify her. Her
dress was plain; her hands bore marks OF
toll. No one dreamt that she might be
the queen, nor had she any thought of It.
The least beautiful Of all the women there
she stood that moment. But that which
had come to me, and which had not I'M
dcrstood, came to me again.
Isaw her as she sat BY my bedside nurs-
ing me in my fever. I saw her in the
brightness OF the home tireside smiling In
my face. / saw her as she knelt in tears
before the Virgins statue; and l forgot

before Mannette. I took her hand and

THE MURDERED CHINAMAN.

A letter purporting to be from Charley
Thacker. Piute, appears in another
column. IT relates to the Chinaman
found dead in we'll near Hoppin's
ranch, and in behalf of the Indians in
the neighborhood, protests against the
all .tion in HI. H. McColley's letter,
published on the 22d instant, that there
is mo doubt Of the murder having
been committed by Indians" Charley
is represented as saying that he is per-
sonally acquainted with every Indian
living between Winnemucca and Silver
City, and knows them so well that
Nothing of consequence happens among
them unknown to him, and he assures
the public that Wong Hook. the MUIR
dere6 Cbinaman, was not. killed by
Indians. The manner in which the
Chinaman was killed would be sufi.
cient proof to him that the Indians had
nothing to do with the act, even if he
Was not personally acquainted with
them, as they shoot an enemy, and do
not beat him to- death with stones or
clubs, or tt row their dead into wells.
1t so happens that we are acquainted
with Charley Thacker, having known
him since he was boy, living with j.
N. Thacker, whose name he adopted,
and we are not entirely unfamiliar with
the habits of the Indians. 1t is fact
susceptible of proof that Indians do
beat their enemies, and even members
of their own tribe, to death with stones,
though it must be admitted that they
are not in the habit of throwing their
dead into wells, probably for the reason
that wells are not always at hand for
that purpose. While it appears that
there is no positive evidence that the
Chinaman was murdered by Indians, it
by no means fol ows that he ives not,
because-his head was beaten with stones
and his body thrown into a well.

Seven. Men Arrested for a Crime
Committed n Year Ago.
SAN BUENAvENsURA (Cal.).


march 20.
1t will be remembered that on the
Gath day of March of last year. at about
2 O'Clock in the morning, t. Wallace
More, q largo land owner on the Sespe
ranch, in this county. was brntalIy
murdered. The assassins set fire to
his barn, and by the light of the flames,
when More rushed out to save his
property, he was fred upon. and
finally, after running short distance,
fell dead with two bullets in his throat,
Que in the bowels, and seven in his
brain. The latter shots were fired of
course after he fell. The usual Coro-
ner's inquest only developed the fact
that four men, all masked and dressed
alike, actually took hand in the
bloody work, but NO clue to their
identity could be had. One McCaft
was arrested and held to answer.
but the evidence failed to satisfy
the Grand Jury that he should
be indicted. A strong suspi
cion always remained that some of
the settlers on the Sespe ranch, with
whom Mr.. More was always engaged in
land suits. were the guilty parties, the
supposed immediate cause of the kill
ing being an attempt of More to control
the water and prevent the settlers from
irrigating their crops. A dete tive from
San Francisco and another from Los
Angeles were employed to trace out the
perpetrators OF the crime. but up to
within day or two no public result
followed; but on Thursday evening.
Alexander P. More. brother OF the
murdered man, went before Justice
Carlton and swore out a number OF
warrants, armed with which the Sheriff
with posse proceeded the same night
to the Sespe ranch and arrested F. A,
Sprague, j. S. Churchill. j. d. Lord
Jesse Jones. John Curlee. j. A. Swan
son-and Mr.. Cook. The authorities
are said to be 10 full possession of all
the particulars of the conspiracy to
murder MoSe, the time and place of the
preliminary meetings, and the arrange
ments for the murder. which includes
the penalty of death against informers.
The persons. arrested on the charge
Of being implicated in the More murder
arrived in town abont p. NJ, and
large crowd gathered about the Court
House to receive them. A good deal of
excitement was msnifest, some being
for aud some against the prisoners.
An examination win be held before o
Justice as soon as the prisoners secure
