What it Did For an Old Lady.
CosHocToN STATION, N. Y,
December 26. 1873.

DoceHoer 20, 1910
GENTs-A number of people had
been using your Bitters here, and
with marked effect. In n case, q
lady ver seventy years, had been sick
for years, and for the past ten years
has not been able to be around half
the time. About six months ago she
got so feeble she was helpless. Her
old remedies, or physicians, being of
no avail, I sent to DEPOSIT, 'forty.fve
miles away, and got a bottle of Hop
Bitters. 1t improved her so she was
able to dress heraelf and walk about
the house. When she had taken the
second bottle she was able to take care
of her own room and walk out to her
neighbours, and has improved all the
time since. My wife and children
also have derived great benefit from
their use.

To-day I am as active and feel as well
as I did at 80. I Gee q great many

ease. The angles were followed up, and
the point found, and there was discovered
huge heap Of filth in miserable yard
exactly at the point of convergance OF the
two angles. The filth was destroyed, and
the cholera Immediately ceased. be says
there can be no doubt but that this filth
heap was the indus in which the cholera
germs were propagated. So he concludes
that the cholera germ will breed outside
the human body, and the deposit OF ex-
creta and the fluids of the human body in
the proper place will set the breeding pro-
cess in operation that is to say, the
proper conditions will, in filth deposits,
produce the cholera germ, aud it will be
communicated to human beings therefrom
by the atmosphere. In the light of this
testimony there should be no hesitancy in
any community about utterly blotting cut,
no matter at what cost, every possible
breeding spot for cholera in or near every
community. Nor should there be any
longer a question debated by municipal
authorities as to the danger of depoaiting
the rejected matter of single cholera
patient in filth receptacle, there to set
up the germ. breeding process By which
thousands will be poisoned. In the light
of all the knowledge we now have we
should be able to pretty effectually guard
American cities next year from any great
scourging by the cholera. The only ques-
ton is, will we do SO?

TIE RAnzoAD TAX DECISION AGAIN

In the concluding portion of Justice
Fields decision of the railroad tax cases he
points out that railroads will not escape
just taxation If the proper course is pur-
sued. Their property is heavily encum-
bered with mortgages. Why should they
not be allowed, on paying taxes on that
property, to credit it on thsir mortgages,
as any natural person paying it would be
allowed he asks. Why unjustly discrim-
mate against them? Eliminate the invalid
words, "except as to railroad and other
quasi public corporations" and there will
no difficulty in assessing and taxing mort
cages. The decision does practically elm.
mate the exception. Then, says the Court,
place the taxes on the mortgages which are
treated as interests in the property mort
gagged. The records of the counties give
the mortgages and the Assessors can return
20 the Board of Equalization the value. of
the property covered by the mortgages,
and the Board would have the value of the
property of the companies and the amount
of the mortgages before it. The tax is
hen on the property and can be collected
and the companies on paying could claim
credit for it on the mortgage. Thus, holds
the Court, justice would be done to corpora.
tions as to individuals. Generally in re.
gard to the decision of the Court referred
to briefly already, it must be recognized as
conservative and in the interest of a proper
conservation of the rights of corporations.
There is no danger that too great liberty
will be allowed corporations, or that Courts
will hold SO favorably to them as to men.
ace private ownership in property. All the
tendency, on the contrary, is to divest cor.
porations of their rights, and to hamper
their development, and to do them abzo.
lutte wrong. Such decisions as the one
under consideration may be likened to the
slight pressure of brake upon train de.
scending the western slope of the Sierras.
1t may prevent Judicial decisions from
flying the track altogether, but that it will
seriously impede the element of coercion of
corporations by public opinion, to which
we are SO rapidly tending, is not at all
probable.

THRILLING EXPERIENCE. The follow
ing is from the Downieville Messenger oi

Wednesday morning, as James Oldham
was driving Weir & Mead's stage down
from the city, and when on the point just
below the Jim Crow trail, the iron which
held one of the whiffletrees TO the double.
tree broke, letting the former fall upon
the heels of one of the horses. The fright
ened animal sprang forward, and in q
second the whole outfit was of the grade
on its way to the river, some sixty feet be-
low. There were in the stage at the time
seven persons beside hedriver-four grown
people and three children. The stage rolled
over several times, utterly demolishing
the top and mashing one wheel. Strange
as it may appear, the passengers were none
OF them hurt to amount to anything. Old
ham was considerably scratched and bruised
about the face and one knee. The horses
were considerably scratched, but not seri-
ously hurt, but the harness were badly
broken. 1t is almost miracle that some
Of those aboard were not killed. There is
no blame attached to the driver, as he did
all that any man could do when the whtfiie.

BIG STRIKE. = The Amador Dispatch
furnishes the following account of a rich
mining strike:
A pocket of quartz Of almost unparal.
leled richness was found less than 100 feet
from the surface at the Nevills or Nam
moth mine, three miles south of jackson,
Amador county, September Stb, in which
was found from S75, ,000 to $le0, 000 and
being about two tons in quantity. Much
of this might justly be termed huge chunks
of gold instead of gold.bearing quartz.
Some of these immense pieces of almost
solid gold were about as heavy as man
could easily lift from the ground. The
largest piece was Of an oval shape, l6x22
inches, and or inches thick. This gold
is almost black, and of the same character
as the former rich strikes found in the
same mine, and which have heretofore at
tracted the interest and attention of the
mining men of the United States. We
have no doubt but that this is the rich.
est find of gold of this kind ever known in
the United States at one single tine.

A KENTUCKY DISSECTION.

Mr.. Henry Watterson and the Dem
ooratic contortionist at San Francisco diff
fer very materially. The latter is willing
to accept any and all things that habit
themselves in the guise of Democracy.
With it all things are peaceful in the Ma
tional Democracy 1t will take oil just as
readily as it will water. To it there is
nothing offensive in any proposition that
looks to success, and hence it has smiles
and bows for the Tilden men, and bows
and smiles for his opponents. But the
Louisville Courier Journal, which exists
because it has the vigor of life in it, and
is not galvanized into being by candi-
dates purse, and the Democracy of which
is the result of courage and conviction,
has less fear of It's party than of the party
enemies. Mr.. Watterson sees clear through
the schemes and hypocrisy of the dema-
gogues of his party, and has the bravery
to prick the bladder OF their conceit. He
puts in the knife without a tremor, and
plies the two.edged blade with firm
hand. Hear him: "The men who made
the old ticket impossible in 1880 are at
this moment demanding it. Time-servers
then, time-servers now; sightless then,
sightless now; towards then, towards
now-they have not the sagacity to an.
ticipste, nor the courage to meet any real
issue, and they think they see in Mr.. Til
den an escape from "tariff for revenue
only" To them tax reform is a sealed book,
as swassevenyearss ago administrative reform.
To them politics seems bundle of expe-
dents, and "turn the rascals out is a
shibboleth which goes to the heart of every
office-seeker in the land. In 1880 they
made rose-water campaign and lost it;
in 1884 they want TO make a bilge aoater
campaign and if they were allowed to do
so they would lose that. They love Mr..
Tilden no better than they ever did, but
it is either MIN and the old issue they trod
upon and stamped out or new issue
which they dare not tackle, because it has
the fire of truth and the blood of life in it.
Their hope is that Mr.. Tilden, being Mr..
Hendricks senior, will die first, wherein,
as is their wont, they would probably en-.
counter disappointment, seeing that Mr..
Tilden is as blithe philosopher as may be
found, and good for many year, while
Mr.. Hendricks totters upon the brink of
the grave" We must confess that the pre-
science of our Kentucky contemporary ex.
cites our highest regard. How it came to
the reading SO accurately of the inward
ness of it's party in California we can
scarcely conceive. What it intended for
its party scullions and towards at large
applies with peculiar force to the party
managers in California, who prattle about
Mr.. Tilden's availability without the
slightest idea of what that means or the
faintest conception of what that gentle
mans candidacy would represent.

PETRIFIED HUMAN REMAINS. - The
Chico Record of the l4th instant says:
Last week in one of the Butte creek
mines the workmen made an astonishing
find, which has been the sole topic of con.
versstion among our local scientists for
some days past. About So or 40 feet from
the surface of the earth the miners discov-
cred the petrifed remains of man, which
were unfortunately broken into small pieces
while raising them up a shaft. The "stene
man measured about six feet. He rested
upon his back, and the arms were placed
close along the sides. Near where this
important discovery was made they found
some Indian darts and stone ak and pipe.
The head, fest and hands of the petrifac-
tion were collected and sent to ths Mining
Bureau, where they will no doubt elicit
much curiosity. Whether the remains
were those of common Digger Indian,
buried years and years ago, or whether
they were chose of O race of people who
lived here with the ms.nmoths before the
Indians, is deep mystery, and the matter
ia left for knowing ones to decide. 1t is a
great pity that the remains we're shattered,
as they woald have excited the greatest
curiosity.

WOODLAND wkfrs.
WOODLAND. eeptembsr Is. lss3.


Early this morning the remains of William
Keller, an aged shoemaker, were discovered
in tenement house on Fourth street, where
he had been residing By himself since aban-
doned by his wife and family fsw days ago.
Letters written by him aud left in his room
indicated that he had committed suicide By
taking arsenic to end his worldly troubles.
The deceased had resided in Woodland with
his family-a wife and three children-ssv-
ersl years, during which time the domestic
current frequently became SO agitated as to
cause him to abandon the household for q
! short season. A few days ago his wife left
him, taking with her She children, and sought
refuge under a neighbor's roof. This seems
to have been the immediate cause Of the
| deed, but extreme poverty. brought on by IN.
| temperate habits, was doubtless the prime
reason OF his mental dependency.
| This beautiful "Cisy Of the Woods, al
ready noted for its superior educational ad-
vantages, has, by a vote of three TO one, de-
| cided TO build another schosl-house, TO cost
| $40 600, to still further increase it's adYan-
| tages and to meet an imperative want. me-
eessitated By the rapid increase Of pcpula.
tion. This will make three public school
! buildings, beside the college, in the town.
! The movement to establish convent school
in Woodland is meeting with such encourage
ment as TO insure its success. The Catholic
| fair held recently, together with private dona-
tions, has raised the funds to several thou
sand dollars, and the sits for building the
school, a beautiful plat lying west Of and sd-
! joining the town, has already been purchased.
As showing that the morals of the town are
not on the wane, it may bs stated that al.
| though we now have six credisable houses OF
worship, the Methodis's North have COM
menced the erection of fine new church of
that denomination, and the Methodists
South have one in contemplation.
Messrs. Lowe & Holliugsworth have under
consideration the erection of commodlous
and suitable theatre in connection with their
new block in the western division of town,
now in course of construction. They have
already engaged architects to dFaught the
plans and specifications.
The latest social sensation Of cur young
city, which strives to keep abreast of sll en-
tsrp.isiDg towns, may be briefly related as
follows: A young, enterprising mechanic
has for some time been betrothed to one Of
Yolo's fairest daughters, and yesterday was
the time appointed for the nuptisls to take
place, in neiyhboring towp, the home of the
aforesaid +. d. The anxious young man,
equipped with all the necessary credentials,
yesterday proceeded to the home Of his
chosen bride, but on his arrival there he was
cooly and heartlessly informed by his be-
trothed that ahe had " changed her mind, "
and would soon become the happy bride Of
another. The rejected lover returned home
q heart-broken man, to dream the sad dream
Of loves Labor Lost" and to reslizs the
| full truth and force of the trite axiom
there's many slip 'twixt the cup and the
