The semi-weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1882-1886, 1885-07-18
RUSSIA N FRANCE,

VIENNA, July 16.-The political CORE
spondence published in a semi-official dis
patch from St. Petersburg to-day on the
Central Asia question, says that Russia
counts with certainty on the help of France
in any contest which the Gar may have
with England in Asia. France, the article
declares, will be compelled to establish a
protectorate over Tonquin, and the Eng
fish in India will then be between two fires
and their interest is to avoid any policy
that is likely to lead to a Franco-Russian
alliance. This is a. set Off to the increasing
friendliness between Germanyand England.

ADVICE OF AN OLD M. D. TO A
YouNoER oEE.-My Dear Nephew :
/ am glad you are now an accepted
M. D., a. it will free both your wild
owed mother and myself from the
heavy expense of--well, well say
your education. AS to- your fuvdre,
a little advice may not come amiss.
Settle wherever you please. Men are
as sick and credulousin Chicago as in
New York.
In opening an Office, choose the
shady side of a street and use a north
room. Sunny offices are too condu-
Give to convalescence. In decorating
the wall, choose appropriately. A
good engraving of dissecting room,
few colored Autographs Of remark
able tumors, skull, a baby in a bot
tie, and several worn-out scalpels and
trochars are neat and very effective.
On your center table keep chem
istry, an anatomy and a pathology
turned dow1 as-the' chapter On CON
sumption. Patients, while awaiting
your return are bound to read some.
thing A novel turns their mind
away to foreign topics. Besides, !
have noticed that one-half and the
best half of your callers, come in re-
spect to respiratory troubles. OF
course they won't have consumption
but still it is excellent professionally
that they should realize the possible
outcome Of their indispostion.
Let your conversation evidence the
noble calling you have chosen. New
err fall into the vulgar practice of en-
ploying everyday words. 1t does not
sound so we'll, nor does it pay, either.
For temperament or habit, use dia-
thesis; for opinion, diagnosis; for head
eye, throat and heart, cerebral optic,
laryDgeal and cardiac. You can
charge thirty dollars for enteritis,
where you'd get scant three dollars
for stomach ache. Many words in
our vocabulary have reapsd US for
tunes. Carditis, synovitis, hemiplegy
and periostitis are among the most
valuable We have.
In treating the sick, use upon the
poor only the latest remedies This,
in the main, is quicker and more eff
cacious. Frequently you will thus
gain valuable information as TO new
discoveries, and 80 be enabled to
avoid mistakes as TO your wealthy pa
tients. With the rich be slow and
deliberate. II sometimes Injuries the
constitution when convaIescence is too
rapid it also Injuries your status and
your bank account. After restora-
ton to health, keep up a mild tonic
treatment. Most patients enjoy this
for four or five weeks, and 80 justify
10 or 20 additional visits.
In your conduct be dignifed and
learned with men suavs and conf
dental with women; affectionate and
mischievous with children. Be the
repository of all family secrets, and
keep on friendly terms with the SER
wants and the family lawyer.
BY following out these rules, my
dear Nephew, you will attain emf
nence in our profession, and will accu-
mulate, If not fortune, at least that
competence that assures one Of the
respect, admiration and regard of
himself and society at large.
Your afectionate uncle,
JABEz GALL.

MAxWELL'S ARRIVAL.
The Supposed Murderer of PreIler, With Va
rious Aliases. Reached st. Louis
sunday Morning.

ST. Louis, August l6.-Water H Lennox
Maxwell, alias T. c. D'Auguier, alias Hugh
NJ. Brooks the supposed murderer of c. Ar
thur Preller at the Southern Hotel ia this
city on the Sd Of last April, arrived here at
Z o'clock this morning from San Francisco
in charge of Detective Tracy and Officer Bad
ger, of the St. Louis police force. A crowd
of from 1900 to 5000 men were al the depot
when the train arrived, and there was a
great scramble among them to get view of
the prisoner. but good order was preserved.
Max well and his custodians were met at the
train by Chief OF Police Harrigan with de-
tachment of police, and were placed in a
patrol wagon and driven TO the -Four Courts,
where. after a brief stay in the dective's
room in the police headquarters, he was put
in the "hold-over'' and is being held there
under an alias warrant, which was sworn out
last Friday by proper authority. Accounts
by reporters who rode in from Halstead,
Kansas, on the train with Maxwell, and had
free access to him and to the officers i'm
charge of him, are to the effect that he absO-
lutely refused to talk about his case, and
positively asserted that he has at no time or
place made any statement in regard TO il, or
in any way acknowledged that he
had anything to do with Preller's death,
or knew anything about it. He says
all stories TO the contrary are entirely un-
train, for 3 reporter of the Republican an
account of his trip from II. Louis 10 Auek
land, his arrest there, and the return trip,
but it is commonplace story of minor
events, and contains no information of in
terest. Detective Tracy thinks that fur
ther developments will show Maxwell to be
a wrecked man mentally. Tracy thinks he
killed Preller for money; that.the very few
admissions he has made point in that di-
rection; that his voyage from st. Louis TO
Auckland was mOney-spending debauch
and not a well-planned escape from justice,
and that it was the luck that takes care OF
drunkards fand fools that stood him in
stead, and not any good management of his
own.
Maxwell was in Chief Harrigan's office am
hour or so tbs afternoon, and large mum
Der of callers were introduced to him, but
nothing regarding his case or what line of
defense he will pursue was gained from him.
porter at the Southern Hotel recognized
him as having been guest at that house
early in April last. Maxwell will be turned
over by the police authorities tomorrow 10
the Sheriff, and will be placed in Jail. What
other, If any legal action will be taken, has
not yet been determined.

time that vigorous action was taken.
Out on the plains, far removed from
the ordinary restrictions of law and pub

pleased, and their pleasure was to get richer
and richer by the systematic disregard of all
