1t seems that about seven years ago an EDglish
physician, great student Of botany, located for
brief season in this city. His practice was not ex
teIsive. and yet the few cases of general nature
that came to him attracted little attention. His
greatest success seemed to be in the treatment OF
liver and kidney disorders, and vitiated blood. In
fact his ability to cope with these common COM
plants was little short of the marvellous. He
seemed almost infallible, and his quiet modest
methods and his well-kept secret was as much .
mystery as himself. After his departure about .
year later Mr. Joy determined to fathom the secret
and copying all the prescriptions he had filled fos
the erratic doctor, he began . Systematic analysis.
In his examination he discovered running all

Joy that he had discovered the secret that he en-
bodied the new elements in preparation of sArsa-
parila to disguise the aste and put it before hit
customers under the modest name Of Joys egeta-

Locksport to live, and in few months
OBrien was killed by a railroad &C

only 16 when she married, has been
earning her own living as governess.

Our citizens must not permit the
question of erecting hotel to slum-
Der. It is a serious drawback, the
want OF more hotel accommodations.
Many people are kept from investing
in Port Townsend from this cause.
This question is ono that should be
taken hold of with energy. The
chamber of commerce should appoint
a committee to see the citizens and
take such steps as Will insure us, at
no distant day, large and a commod-
ious hotel. The plans for such a
building we understand are being
prepared, but the matter must not be
allowed to stop at plans; money
should be raised and interest in this
matter should be aroused in the minds
of the people. A larg- hotel will be
an indication of the enterprise of the
place. Upon many questions OF this
kind our citizens might initiate the
example of some of the other cities
ON the sound.

WOULD DRINK THOUGH DEAD.
The Morgue Had No Terrnrs for This
Gay Young Mnn.

Several travelling men were stand
ing in front of the Russell House last
evening, says the Detroit News, and
one of them told ar anecdote of an
alleged friend Of his who had become
too fond of the cup that cheers and
then inebriates.
A party had made night of in
Chicago, and found themselves about
daylight back at their hotel, with
tue young man in question on their
| hands in comatose condition. They
resolved to give him Il scare calcu-
lated to reform him, so one of the
party summoned a cab to the side
| door,
The almost unconscious young man
IVES carried to it and orders we're
given to the driver to hasten to the
| morgue.
They were soon there, and after q
short conference with the keeper the
victim was carried within and placed
upon one of the line of marble slabs.
A winding sheet was thrown over
him, and with jolly laush b his friends
left after fixing it with tho keeper.
The latter kept his eye upon the
sleeping form for hours Finally he
noticed a movement Slowly the
young man raised his head and
shoulders and dreamily cast half
opened eye about his new surround
ings. 1t seemed to suggest no hor-
rible thoughts to his mind, and he
languidly fell back and closed his
eyes.
Again he showed signs of life, and
while his body was partly raised from
the slab the keeper approached him
with q stage-ghost tread, and with
an umoved face gazed at the victim.
Where am / 2" said the latter,
without q sigh OF nervousness.
"You are dead" was the hollow re-
sponse.
How long have l been dead ?"
queried the youth, after moments
quiet thought.
Three days." replied the keeper.
who really feared the live corpse, by
his GOODNESS, showed signs of insan-
ity.
"Who al g you?" was the next query
from the three days dead.
Il am dead"
How lorg have you been dead:"
Three years"
Another moments pause ensued,
and then, turling toward tie keeper
the young man whispered in con
fdential way:
Say, you have been around here
longer than have and must know the
ropes, What's the quickest way to
get drink?"
That settled it. On the next even
ing the temperance reformers broke
q number of bottles, and were con-
tent to see the young man continue
in his evil ways

Novel Check on Runaway Horses.

With the present interest, bsgotten
of dear experience, now taken IN cable
ear protective guards. the kindred
subject of an efficient check upon ac-
cidents by runaway Is aiso worthy OF
attention The followingIs descrp-
ton of a recent invention viii h from
all accounts is very effective. A
small bar of iron Is fastened to the
axle of the buggy, cart or wagon IN
suitable bearings. At each end OF
this bar or shaft Is a toOtLed wheel
which can be thrown in or cut OF
gear with other toothed wheels on
the hub of the vehicle, by means OF
4 lever under the drivers foot. At
tached to the bar are two straps,
each of which passes from under the
vehicle direct to the horses bit. Ii
the animal becomes fr1ctlOu5 and
tries to run away movement Of the
foot throws the wheels IN gear, and
as tho buggy is drRwl alChS the
straps are wound around the iron
shaft. The faster the horse travels
the more rapidly the straps wind
the greater the strain becomes upon
the animals mouth and the closer
the buggy is drawn up against its
hindquarters. The strain on the
horses mouth becomes terrific, foI
tie animal is as it were pulling
against its own strength, and the
cTamped position into which the run
away is drawn soon brings it to &
dead step. Equally simple device:
prevent the horse from backing, ano
experience shows the thorough prac
ticability of the invention. W. d
Gray, of San Diego, is the inventor
and he has protected his ingenious
cuntrivance by a caveat.

The Walla Walls Union says that
the establishment of the penitentiary
at that place proved to be an outrage
on humanity and source of constant
ever-increasihg expense to the state.
1t has been demonstrated during the
two years since it was located that
there is practically no hard labor at
which any considerable number of
convicts can be employed. 1t is true
about fifty of hem are employed in
making bricks when the weather will
permit; few TRUSTEES work on the
farm and a few make shoes and
clothing for the rest, but not over
half the number now in prison can
be kept at hard labor. The prisoners
are suffering from idleness, while the
people are taxed 10 support them in
1t, and the commissioners are unable
TO devise any means 10 prevent these
evils. Commissioner Sharpstein says
that his experience has convinced
hin that it would be economy for the
state to erect a new penitentiary on
Puget Sound, where the opportunities
for the employment of convicts are
more abundant. Ifthese suggs stioDs
should be carried out, the Union
would like to have the prison build
ing remodelled for use as scientific
and normal schools.

Restored to Life.

Miss Kate Patten, the 23-year-old
daughter of Enos Patten, of Roxbury,
supposed to have died from diphtheria
or tonsilitia, came to life last night
after she was given up by her ply
sicians, and when the undertaken was
ready to prepare her for burial.
Monday afternoon she was pro-
nouneed dead by Doctors Stone and
Dodge. Miss Patten showed signs
Of life and finally whispered, 81 am
Rot dead" She is now fnlly restored
to life and able to speak. She says
she was aware ali the time of the
preparations for her interment and
heard the doctors pronounce her dead,
bat was unable to utter a word of
protest while in the trance.
