A SAD CALAMITY.
Mrs. Burbank Found Dead and Her
Home in Ashes.

Mrs. Burbank Found Dead ana bter
Home in Ashes.
The White Pine News of Saturday con-
tains the following account Of the death OF
Mrs. George B. Burbank, which will prove
sad news to the many friends Of the couple
h~ereabouts SAT 10 o'clock last Thursday
morning a messenger reached here from
Snake Valley, bringing the sad intelligence
that Mrs. George B. Burbank was found
dead last Wednesday morning, q few yards
from the house, which had burned to the
ground the night previous. Mrs. Bur-
banks sister and brother-in-law lived on
an adjacent ranch, and it had been the
custom Of one of the family to go and stay
over night at her house. For some reason
they failed to go Tuesday night, and the
lady was the sole occupant Of the house, so
that it is impossible to tell how the fire or
iginated or the lady came to her death. 1t
is believed, however, that q lamp, which
which was usually kept burning all night,
must have exploded and set fire to the
building. Her death is believed to have
been caused by fright. The position of
the body when found goes to show that she
must nave rushed out in her night clothes,
and being overcome with fright, fell in a
swoon from which she never recovered. A
slight singing of the hair was the only
evidence that she had come in contact with
the flames, and this could have occurred
after leaving the house. from the close po-
sition she laid to the burning building. II
was nearly noon Wednesday before the sad
affair was discovered by the friends Of the
unfortunate lady. Her husband, Mr.. Geo.
B. Burbank, grief-stricken over the sad in
telligence, left Thursday noon for the
scene Of the dire calamity. His numerous
friends here and throughout the county
will deeply regret his great misfortune"

To those of our people who are Arizona
crazy, we would commend the annexed
paragraph from the Arizona Bulletin. 1t
says
Arizona is a poor place for a common
laborer. as the Territory is filled with men
seeking employment at almost any price.
Capital is what is needed, and this must
come and invest before the laborers here
already can hope for remunerative en-
ployment. Let no more come to the Ter
ritory thinking to find work at better
prices than elsewhere, or ever as good, for
he will be disappointed.

What Happened to
Mr.. JOSEPH BEACH,

edy'' about two weeks.

One of the most remarkable cases that has
ever been brought to the notice of the pub
lie. is that of Mr.. J. S. Beach of Stone Ridge,
Ulster Co., n. Y. Mr.. Beach has suffered
since Oct. Is, 1874, from the presence of Cal
culus or Stone in the right Kidney. No less
than seven physicians were employed at diff.
ferent times, to whom Mr.. Beach paid hun
dreds of dollars for medical treatment, with
only temporary relief from his agony.
By the urgent solicitations of his friends.
he was induced to try DR.. David Kennedy's
'-Favorite Remedy. Inexperienced a marked
improvement from the first day he began to
use the medicine: on the 18th of September
he voided a stone as Urge could be passed
through the natural channel.
Mr.. Beach concludes a long letter to DIR
kennedy by saying: 1T will ALWAYS afford
me pleasure TO recommend the .Favorite
Remedy TO those who may be suffering from
difficulties of the Kidneys and Bladder, or
any disorders arising from an impure state of
the blood" The '.Favorite Remedy" sold by

To the Editor Of the Journal:
The recent publication of the report, Civ
ing the comparative merits of various Baking
Powders, according to tests made by the
Government Chemist, has induced some of
the manufacturers of brands. whose inferiori-
ty was thus brought to light, to resort to va
rious means and publications, in order to rid
themselves of the results of that unfavorable
exposition of their inferiority.
That the public may fully understand the
matter, and to avoid any misconception
arising out of statements of our competitors.
seeking to break the force of the report
herewith subjoin the main part of the report
in which the comparative values are correctly
given.
DIR. Loves tests were made to determine
what brands are the most economical to use.
And as their capacity lies in their leavening
power. tests were directed solely to ascertain
the available gas of each powder.

States Senator in 1869. but his reelection
was defeated in 1875. Last wear he was
again elected to the Senate.
As under the United States law the vacancy
cannot be filled till the second Tuesday after
it occurs. the Wisconsin legislature cannot
elect a successor till March Sth, after the new
Senate meets and recognizes. This prob
ably removes the last chance that the rcpub-
licans had to re-organize the Senate.
Senator Carpenter has been unwell for
some time. and has been unable to attend the
Senate sessions for several weeks Until
Monday, no alarm was felt in his case, al
though it was feared his disease would event

Senator Carpenters death creates profound
regret and is the general topic in all circles.
Various public associations will meet and
take formal action.
Flags are at half mast on nearly all the
public buildings and many private residences
in respect of the late Senator Carpenter.
Preparations are being made for the greatest
memorial demonstration ever witnessed in
Wisconsin. when his remains are brought
home. 1t is known here that the Senator's
last wish was to have his remains cremated,
and it is expected his wish will be carried out if
possible. Carpenters life was insured for
about $50, 900.
