FREEZING IN THE CARS

Judge j. L. Kinney, agent of the
Yanktun Sioux Indian Agency In Da-
kota, arrived at Nebraska City, NeOr..
on Sunday. after being nine days on
the road. Five DAYS were necessary
for the party to travel thirty miles.
The thermometer during the live days
was at forty below zero most OF the
time Speaking of the recent blizzard,
the Judge says the loss of life in Da-
kota has been greatly underestimate,
as the Dakota papers have tried TO
cover it up. He describes the scene
which took place on board the cars.
The coal was running low. The pas

outer garments they could spare. and
gave them to the ladies and children.
Finding these not enough, they

car and wrapped the children up in

A CURIOUS DIsCOvERY.
THE SENSATION CREATED BY A JAPAN EsE
PEASANT WOMAN.


a young Japanese peasant woman
has created a genuine sensation In the
medical circles of the east with new
theory and cure of rheumatism;
Her theory is that it is caused by a
small insect under the skin, that gnaws
and bites the muscles and thus causes
the twinges of pain and the untold
misery at that ailment.
A grizzled and skeptical sea captain
placed himself under her care and,
after foot baths of bran and hot rice
brandy, she nipped from his knees
small white insects by the dozen!
The regular practitioners were skep-
teal about this theory, and put one
of the insects under microscope:
They decided that by its organism IL
never could have lived under the sur
face of the skin.
The Captain insists, however, that
the Japanese woman has taken the
insects from his knees and kies by
the hundreds. in his sight, and killed
them, and that he grows better after
each treatment!
This theory, absurd as it seems, is
really not much more so than the the
cries formerly held by the medical
fraternity, 1t used TO be thought q
trouble Of the joints, and was treated
as such until it was demonstrated that
the treatment brought no lasting re-
suits.
Then, as the muscles were affected,
it was set down "a muscular disease;
but the same unsatisfactory results
followed. Now iC is universally ac-
knowledged TO be fiery condition
of the blood caused by the presence
OF uric acid in the system.
To cure il the uric acid must be
driven out OF the blood, which is done
by putting the kidneys in healthy
condition with Warmers safe cure,
and putting out The fire in the blood
by Warmers safe rheumatic cure.
These remedies. taken in alienation,
a they should be, drive out the uric
acid already in the blood, and prevent
further accumulation. James Wight,
of 81 f. 10Th St. New York, was for
many years victim of rheumatism,
and tried various remedies and cures
without avail. Sept. 8, 1881 he writes
in praise of the remedies named and
SAYS: II am now free from the arrow
stings of the dreaded innammarory
rheumatism. ] have and always will
recommend Warners rheumatic REM
edies TO all sufferers of the disease"
The japanese peasant woman's
theory will not be likely TO stand the
test of time and scientific investiga
ton, but the thousands of cures made
by the remedies mentioned above
prove their merit beyond all question.

His Attorney Makes Motion for . New
Trial.
Angelo Domentini was brought before
Judge Van Fleet in Department Two of the
Superior Court yesterday morning to re-
ceive his sentence for the crime of rape.
committed on twelve-year-old girl named
Mary Weideman on the I'd of February
last. Judge Van Fleet told the prisoner
that jury had found him guilty as charged
and asked if he had any cause to show wby
sentence should not be pronounced upon
him. G. I. Jones, counsel for the prisoner.
moved the Court for new trial and asked
the Court to set aside the verdict of guilty
on the grounds that the Court had misdi-
rected the Jury in matters of law and erred
in decisions of questions of law during the
trial, that the verdict was contrary to the
evidence and that new evidence had been
discovered which was not cumulative
and which was material to the de-
tense. He then read an affidavit of
Domentinls setting forth the materialitv
of the testimony of John Manion,
for whom subpoena had been issued, but
who had not been found until after the
close of the trial. He next read a most re-
markable affidavit of John Manion, who
had been working on the ranch of Mrs.
Slower, near Brighton, in which Manion
asserts the unchastity of the girl from his
own personal knowledge.
Mr.. Jones then made an able and forcible
argument in behalf of his client. He re-
viewed the testimony at length, and as
serted while this was the charge upon
which person could be convicted easier
than upon any other, the Supreme Court
very frequently set aside verdicts of guilty.
for that very reason. He cited the cases of
Benson in CAL, Brown in As Cal. and
Royal in G3 Cal, in all of which the Su-
preme Court had set aside such verdicts.
Judge Van Fleet decided to take the mat
ter under advisement until Friday morning,
intimating that the only point upon which
he was undecided was the question of the
new evidence.

Opening Scene in the Police Court Yes

Judge Buckley's Court was the scene of a
very pleasant interchange of compliments
yesterday morning when ex-City Attorney
<. G. Hart turned over the office to his sue
cessor, w. S. Church. There was large
audience in attendance and the remarks of
the speakers were listened to with attention
and interest.
AS soon as the Judge had taken his seat
the ex-City Attorney arose and said that at
the city election held on the 18th of March
gentleman had been elected to succeed
him as City Attorney of the city of Sacra-
mento. He had been educated to believe
in government of the people, for the pee
pie and by the people, and thought it one
of the most beautiful features of demo-
cratic system OF government that the SOW
ereign power resided in the people and
that it was their right and privilege to say
who should administer the affairs lof gov
eminent as public servants. For himself,
while he regretted to sever the ties which
had been so pleasant during the past two
years, he was prepared to bow compla-
Gently to the will of the people and
venture no complaint of the public iudg-
ment as it bad been expressed He spoke
feelingly OF the pleasant relations that had
existed between the officers of the Court
and of the ties of friendship that had grown
up among them. In complimentary terms
he introduced his successor, Mr.. Church,
expressing the belief that the gentleman
would prove an honest and able officer.
The new City Attorney then addressed
the Court, and announced that il would be
his aim to do his duty to the best of his
ability. He expressed his appreciation of
the compliments paid him by his prede-
cessor
r. NJ. Clarken then pronounced feeling
eulogium upon the retiring officer, praising
the manner in which he had acquitted
himself as public servant. He also spoke
In complimentary terms of the new City
Attorney, and hoped that upon his retire
ment from the Office he would merit the
verdict " Well done, thou good and faith
full servant"
|. s. Brown spoke in the same strain in
regard to the retiring and incoming ofli-
GERS.
At this point Chief of Police Lee entered,
and Messrs. Hart, Clarksn and Brown CON
graduated him and spoke in eulogistic
terms OF his character as man and rs an
officer
Judge Buckley expressed his regret at
the retirement of Mr. Hart. Their per-
sonaI relations had been very pleasant and
if ever there was an honest officer Mr..
Hart was that man. Healso complimented
the new Chief of Police, whom he said he
had known personally and officially for
many wears
