financial losses by keeping those who
did not deserve assistance. The most
reasonable hypothesis is, that she set
fire to The house and put an end to
earthly existence with revolver.
Frank Drake, who had been cutting
wood for her, as there was no one else
to do it, was in the hnuse at 10 o'clock
last evening, and said that she pre-
scented as cheerful an appearance as
usual, aud exhibited no signs that all
was not well.
A letter was sent to Mr.. Newton, at
Naples, this morning, and it is expect.
cd that he will arrive here Tomorrow
evening or Monday morning.
1t was known that Mrs. Newton had
very valuable diamond ring, and the
fact that the bolts Of tho !aor lock
show that the door was not fastened,
almost dispels tho idea that the fire
was not accidental; still, the position
of the body indicates that the victim
was trying to escape and had reached
the door. 1t is possible, but not very
probable, that the house may have
been burned to conceal the horrible
crime Of some one unknown.
The honse and furniture belonged to
O. S. Glenn, proprietor Of Glenns
saw mill in Camas prairie, and the
loss was considerable.

Confidence i'm Mining.

The Chicago Mining Review, which
takes very cheerful view of the min
ing situation, says in it's last number:
The increasing bullion product Of
every mineral State and Territory in
the very infancy of the mining indus
try, in the absence of almost every
necessary facility only gives hint f
the possibilities yet undeveloped, and
shows that there are producing mines,
proves-perhaps more clearly than
any other point-that the lack Of the
first principles of business in stock
and mining transactions, have caused
more loss and has done mere to cast
the shadow of reproach upon legiti-
mate mining than all of the adverse
influences combined
Mining is proving and will prove,
by the most substantial evidence of
bullion output, its true place and worth
as reliable and profitable productive
industry. Thousands of valuable
claims controlled by well known and
responsible men, wait for capital and
facilities, to wheel into the line of pro-
ducing mines. Stocks based upon
these properties, well managed and
crowded in the direction of output,
must prove valuable.
To secure the best results, or salts
factory returns from any business en-
tcrprise, demands careful investiga-
ton of the resources and grounds OF
improvements neglect of this pre-
caution is to invite fraud and dshon-
esty. No field offers better induce
ments for legitimate and deliberate in
vestment than mining at tie present
time, ard there never has been a peri
cd in the history of the mining indus.

attention from substantial and practi

The strictest investigation onl,

a true mine, or good prospect. thor.

Going to the Dogs.

1t ia a common belief among tenn.
pcrance people that the prevalence OF
intemperance Is not affected by the
frequency Of the resorts where liquor
is sold. The experience Of Swiizcr-
land is a melancholy proof to the con.
trary. Up to 1874 the Swiss republic
hal by varions restrictions held the
liquor traffic in check. Grogshops
were restricted in number and in lo-
caity (not being allowed near schools
and chnrches) and could not BIZ kept
by women; sales could not be made
after certain hours and not to children.
But in 1874 the cantons lost the pow.
err to regulate, by constitutional
amendment, and it was determined
try the experiment of frte rum in fact
The traffic became as free as that in
bread and meat. The consequence is
a great increase in the drinking resorts
and a correspondent of the London
Times desc ibes Geneva, where the
traveller in 1871 found it difficult to
get breakfast at an open restaurant
on Sunday morning, as now the
most drunken city in Europe" There
is public house to every 70 inhabit,
ants and grocers and confectioners all
sell liquor. The sobriety of the wo-
men bias declined and the nation once
celebrated for frugality and industry
are now visited with business failures,
bankruptcy, shiftlessness of working
men and a general social decadence to
an alarming degree. The municipal
tiles and the churches petition the
Federal Government to take active
measures to stay the ruin.

ton-His History.
in an old stone house at the foot of Seven
teenth street, near the river lived an old
colored man named Gilbert Fitzhugh. Fitz-
hugh had history, aud an interesting one.
He was borne nearly seventy years ago in
Appomattox, Va. and was, up to 1850, n slave,
being at one time owned by Col. Leary, an
intimate friend of Daniel Webster In 1850
Fitzhugh purchased his freedom, and came
north, being the first free colored man seen in
this city. At the breaking out of the war he
bought the stone house, and II is said that for
nearly year he kept secluded from the out
side world. He had stocked the house with
every necessity, and did not make his appear
anco again until his rations had given
out. He continued to 1.-Two in his adobe
dwelling, and was known as "Gil."
While young, and after he had
bought his freedom, he accumulated quite a
fortune and was placed above want. Of late
"Gil' had been failing, and yesterday even
ing ut o'clock he died. His friends will
bury him tomorrow. As his death was sud
