DECLINED THE HONOR.

NJ. p. Freeman was recently APP
pointed Regent Of the State University
to fill the vacancy created by the resig-
nation of w. w Bishop. No better
appointment could have been made for
the position. He is Thoroughly identi-
fled with the interests of Eastern Ne
vada and knows the wants OF the Uni
versity as well, perhaps, as any person
in the State. He has, however, de-
clined the position upon the grounds
that some other part Of the State than
Elllo, ought TO be represented on the
Board Of Regents. The State Univer-
sity is the only institution nurtured by
the State East of Carson, and Eastern
Nevada mel ought to have the manage
ment of it.

what an Expert Says About II.


The New York Mining Record pub
fishes report of the Van De Water min
ing property, which includes the Eagle
mine and mill, in Spring Valley, made
by Harry Mccoy, mining expert, who
says:
Il visited the Van De Water prop
erty. aud made thorough examination
of three of the mines and the mill. l
found the main shafts 245 feet in depth,
and in good ore all the way down.
Thirty-five Chinanen are at work IN
mine. Over $4,000 tons of ore are In
s. ght, that will assay over $40 per
ton. Mr.. George Hearst, of San Fran
cisco, connected with Messrs. Haggin
& Tevis, who has thoroughly examined
the mine, says that we have a true
tissue vein, which is practically mex
haustible. The Superintendent is open
ing up two new veins, the ore from
which, assays higher than the Eagle.
One piece from the mine that | brought
assays sos Oh in gold and S205 90 In
silver The Superintendent thinks
these new veins will prove much better
than the old. The mill is in perfect
order, and reducing 30 tons in "a hours.
and has been working about IA days.
The amalgam on hand is valued at
$4,000. The expenses are about $500
per day. The company can make div
idend January LIST, OF ten cents or more
per share. 1 have no hesitancy in say
ing that regular dividends can be made
for years.
The Chinese alluded to, were at work
wheeling and doing outside work at the
mine; but we learn from Isaac Riley,
who arrived here yesterday from the
mine, that there are now no Cinnamon
at work for the company.

The Death Eate


OF our country is getting to be fearfully
alarming. the average OF life being less
ened every year, without any reason
able cause, death resulting generally
from the most insignificant origin. At
this season of the year, especially, a
cold is such common thing that in the
hurry OF everyday life we are apt to
overlook the dangers attending it, and
often find too late that fever or lung
trouble has already set in. Thousands
lose their lives in this way every win
tel, while had BoscHEE's GERMAN SYRUP
been taken, cure would have; resulted
and large bill from a doctor been
avoided. For all diseases of the throat
and lungs, BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP
has proven itself to be the greatest dis
covery of its kind in medicine. Every
druggist in this country will tell you
of its wonderful effect. Over $50, 900
bottles sold last year without q single
failure known.

DIED OF STARVATION.

The inquest in tho case OF Dr. VOLTS infant pro-
tege. Annie Nestel. who died ut No. AZ Delaney
street while in the charge Of nurse held yester
day by Coroner Elinger. Hermann Endeman tcsti-
fed that he made analysis Of the contents of
bottle submitted to him by Coronger Elinger. The
solution was found to contain proportion of
drachm of aromatic sulphuric acid to one and half
drachms of mixture. The examination demonstrated
that u very small quantity or opium preparations
could have entered into the composition OF tho
medicine. Witness said that sulphuric acid diluted
found in the medicine submitted to him could not
have had any injurious effects upon the mucous
membranes OF tho stomach throat.
DIR. William II. WEIGH. of No. u East Twenty first
street, demonstrator of anatomy ut Bellevue
Hospital. said that In q specimen of mucous MEM
brane examined under the microscope the only
noticeable pathological condition was caused by
raised white patches which were not the result or
any irritant Strong acids would have tendency to
destroy the fungi.
Deputy Corpner Macwhnnie related the result OF
the autopsy. Upon inspection he found the body
badly nourshed. In the throat he found condi-
ton sembling either membranes acted upon by an
irritant ON an aphthous condition not often found.
There was n reduess OF the gsophagus extending tho
entire length to the stomach. He was OF opinion
that death was not due to rrant. but to starva
ton the child not being able to swallow. The jury
touud that the child came to her death by mani
ton diarrhua and aphthous condition of the throat.
due TO natural causes DIR. won was there upon dis
charged and his bail bond cancollcd.
