DRO WNED IN THE LAKE.
A Bonanza Kings Accidental
Death at Chicago.

CHICAGO, July s.-Hiram A. Pearson,
of Bonanza City, Custer county, Idaho,
was drowned in Lake Michigan, off Thir-
ty-frst street, a little after 10 O'Clock last
evening. He had gone on Yachting
trip in company with Miss Emily Lyton,
one of the members of the Little Lord
Fauntleroy Company, of the Columbia
theater. They intended bathing in the
lake. Mr.. Pearson was an extremely
wealthy man, having an income of ST.
500 per day from various mining inter-
ests in Idaho, Nevada and Montana.
He was we'll known in San Francisco, es-
pecially in the Mining Exchange, where
he carried on extensive operations. He
came to Chicago last November for the
purpose of enjoying himself, and joined
the Calumet Club soon after his arrival.
The date of his acquaintance with Miss
Lyton is not known, but some of his
friends have known of the acquaintance
for several weeks. He and Miss Lyton
were going to swim. He donned bath
ing suit, got into the water, and must
have been seized with cramps, as he
called for help and sunk before aid could
be given.
LATER-Pearson's body was found this
Idaho, but of San Francisco, member
of the Pacific Club there. 1t appears
that Pearson ate hearty dinner, includ-
ing cucum bers, peas, tomatoes and other
vegetables. 1t is believed these, together
with the chill of the water, caused
cramps.

ARTHUR RICHMOND.
Authorship of Famous Political
Letters EstabI1sed.

New YORK, July S.-The Commercial
Advertiser says: Within the past decade
there has been no event in the American
world Of letters which provoked such wide
comment and excited so large a measure
of curiosity as the publication in the
North american Review of a series of let
ters to prominent persons under the non,
de plume of "Arthur Richmond" The
two distinctive characteristics of the let
ters were the extreme bitterness of per-
sonal and partisan feeling which they
betrayed, and the marked excellence and
vigor of their literary form. Shortly
after the recent death of Allen Thorndike
Rice an attempt was made to establish
the fact that he was not only responsible
for their publication, but had written the
Arthur Richmond letters. After this,
Rice's friends thought the real authors
should come forward, but as they have
not done so the veil of mystery has been
lifted. We have it on unimpeachable
authority that this series of letters was
written by Julian Hawthorne and Gail
Hamilton.

NIGHT Reavis stopped at the ranch d

night. Reavis stopped at the ranch Of
John A. Patterson, two miles north OF
Visslia, at 8 O'Clock, and demanded his
supper. Reavis was well armed. Pat
terson sent his son to town on horsehs I
to inform the authorities, who immedi-
ately sent out a posse. The house was
surrounded, and Reavis, in trying to es'
cape, was shot by Sam Ellis, the ball en-
tering his abdomen and coming out al
the middle OF his back. He was imme'
diately brought to the County Jail, where
he died. Excitement runs high here,
and the people feel relieved that Reavis
has met his death. The funeral of Wren
took place yesterday afternoon. He
leaves wife and three children.

Fire I'm Chinatown.

FRESNO, CAL, July Sire broke out
in frame building In Chinatown occu.
pied as a laundry, at IL O'Clock last
night, and before the flames could be
checked, eight frame buildings, a Joss
house and two-story brick block, the
latter belonging to j. R. Rollins, were
destroyed. No insurance except on the
brick block, which WAS worth $12, 900
insured for $4,000.
The stock of Wong Ung, in the same
building, was insured for So 500. The
fire originated from the explosion of a
coal oil lamp.
