Condition of the President.

The President awoke in highly feverish
condition on the 7th inst, which continued
throughout the day, and caused no little alarm
among the people, although the surgeons were
confident that their patient was progressing
favorably toward recovery. Careful and thor
ough examination of the wound by the physi-
clans on the morning of the 9Th showed that
the flow of matter had again become obstruct-
ed, and they at once proceeded to make an
other iucision into the deeper parts of the
wound. The patient was put under the infu-
ence of ether and the operation successfully
performed. The result was perfectly satisfac-
tory, the pus being drawn off from the new
opening and the granulated parts of the
wound which had prevented the free flow of
matter, allowed to heal. The ether caused
considerable nausea, which in turn resulted in
more fever, but the President soon recovered
from this and the surgeons are highly satisfied
with the effects of the operation.
The Presidents pulse ran up to ITO on the
10th inst, which excited considerable alarm
among outsiders. The doctors attributed the
rise to debility occasioned by the last operation,
and assert that their patient is improving in
manner satisfactory to them. He was able to
sign an important document, which he did in a
firm, clear hand.
The President wrote his first letter since the
shooting on the 18th inst. 1t was to his moth
er, assuring her of his confidence in his re-
covery. He begins to take much interest in
public affairs, and on the 18th asked that the
principal items of interest he read to him. Mrs
Garfield read to him some private letters and
some newspaper clippings.

IHE Texas newspapers are advising the peo-
pie of that state to cultivate the eucalyptus. A
large part of that states wide area is free from
trees. The eucalyptus is valuable not only for
Its wood, but also because it is defense
against malaria. An attempt was made to in
troduce it to Southern Georgia several years
ago, but the tree succumbe1 to the cold winter
of 1861. 1t has been successfully cultivated
in California

Eureka 6entinei.l


Pete Lowell has been repairing the
telegraph lines between Eureka and Salt
Lake on the overland route. II vas
rather q long, cold siege, although the
line was in toleraLle shape, considering
the rongh storms we have bad the past
fall. Mr.. Lowell says that from Cherry
Creek all the way through to Stockton,
Utah. the country has livened up won-
d%srfully during the past year. Cherry
Greek has two mills running on ore. and
another is now in course of erection;
the people there want the county seat,
and will build a Courthouse on their
own hook; the town Is lively in every
sense OF the word. and has every indica-
ton of continuing. as it nov is. the lead
ing town of White Pine county.
The leading mines Of ~Schellburns are
being worked with encouraging pros
poets.
More farming has been done on Deep
Creek the past season than ever before,
and a large amount OF new ground will
be broken next spring. The region about
Deep Greek Valley is well adapted for
agricultural purposes. and the opening
up of the mines in the eastern part Of
the State gives renewed energy TO the
residents Of hat stream and its tribu-
taries
Going east from Deep Creek telegraph
station it is only a short distance to the
Clinton or Clifton District Just on top
of the range. still farther to the north
is Gold Hill District, and in both are
good mines. Many who have owned
claims there for several years are now
doing assessment work. and will try to
develop the same this winter. The
Cherry Greek boom has done ii all. Mr..
Lowell says that the ores and formation
of the Deep Greek range are very similar
to those in the neighborhood of Austin.
He was 20 favorably impressed with the
outlook that he has taken o hand with a
young man there, and together they will
endeayor to develop what is expected to
be a bonanza in time.

Limbs Torn from His Body.
A fearful accident occurred at the Star mill
Tuesday last about l O'Clock. Fred Re, q new
hand at the mill, was engaged In cleaning the
machinery under the bans, when. by some acct
dent unknown. his clothing got caught In the
screws and he was wound around the shaft un-
I'll his lower limbs were literally torn from his
body. As no one was present when the acct.
dent occurred, the exact manner in which he
was caught in the screws is unknown. Mr.. Re
was a resident of Cherry Creek for some time.
though but little is known of his ante.
cedents. save that he was a native of Switzer
land and a single man. He has az uncle living
In Eureka. As soon as the accident was discov.
Gated. On the evening Of his death . coroner's
inquest was held before Justice Clayton. from
which we extract the following testimony:
ci ris osiergsrd-I was acquainted with the
deceased. Frede lex Re. by sight only. I sent
him under the pans to get a trowel. He stayed
soine time away. and when | went to clean the
cleanup pan | saw a boot lying under the pans.
| then went under the paul.. and. seeing him
wrapped around the shaft. hurried to the
engine-room and told Mr.. Davidson, the engi-
necr. Davidson asked me II he was dead, and
| told him that he was. He then stopped the
engine az quick as he could. aud four or five of
us went uuder the pans and cut his clothes
loose from the shaft and carried him out. He
was dead when We took him from the shaft.
Deceased was absent from me for about five
minutes before his death. The accident APP
pened about l O'Clock p. M, December %. 1890.
He had ON a heavy coat when he went under the
pans. l went under the pans with him during
the first part of the day and showed i'm his
duties, and warned him to be very careful of
the machinery. Deceased was empl yed under
the pans In the fore part OF the day, gathering
up quicksilver.
The Coroner's Jury rendered q verdict OF acci-
denttl death, IN accordance with the adduced
facts.
