Real Est ate Deal.

One of the most important real estate
deals of the year has just taken place
near Anaheim. A syndicate headed by
Judge Stanton, of this city, has pur-
chased fine tract of 5000 acres of land
few miles west of Anaheim. They
paid $100, 900 for the property and have
named it the Anaheim Homestead
Tract. 1t is the intention of the COM
pany to sub-divide the land into small
tracts and sell it for from $50 to $50 an acre.
1t is said to be we'll adapted to bear all
kinds of fruit, grain and vegetable and
has an abundant supply of water. The
new owners say that much of the land
is already spoken for and the whole will
readily be sold to sctual settlers. Mr..
P. A Stanton has just returned from
San Francisco, where the deal was con-
summated.

ages as "not to throw dirt. and similar
things, that che was afraid others would
find out the relations she had borne with
papa" So, in order to save herself
she told Mr.. Stratton her story. Had
not her father written her such things,
and sent her such messages as he did.
and had she net been afraid to leave
Mrs. Watson's lest he should get hold of
her and put her where che would never

Mt. GRETNA, August 10-Late to-day
the joint encampment of the United States
regulars and six companies of the National
Guards, was opened with the booming of
cannon. The encampment will last for a
week. On Monday Governor Beaver and
staff, and later Secretary of War Proctor
will be here. The regulars arrived here
several days ago. They came from Wash
ington, Fort Hamilton, New York, Fort
Myer, Virginia, and Fort Adams, Newport,
Rhode Island OF the National Guards the
Phoenixvine Battery, Captain John Dem
nithorne arrived last night. followed soon
after by Hunts Battery, of Pittsburg. The
Pittsburg boys have fine quarters, are all
we'll and are thoroughly enjoying them
selves.
The other State militia here are the First
City troops, Philadelphia, Sheridan Troop,
Tyrone, Governors Troop, Harrisburg, and
Battery A, Philadelphia. The regulars
were brought here at the request OF Cover
nor Beaver 10 give the State troops more
thorough instructions in military tactics. A
rifle range two and one-half miles long has
been constructed. A similar encampment
has never been held in this country and
much interest is manifested in IT by regular
army officers. This year the State camps
have been regimental and next year the en-
tire division will be encamped at Mt.

nm Immense Amount Of Territory
The Animals Taken Hundreds
Of Miles to be Disposed Of
LA INQUIRE, N. D., August 10.-A gi-
gantic horse stealing industry is thought to
have been established in, the Coteaus, along
the Missouri river. A great many horses
stray away and are never heard from; 9TH
ers are taken from the stables and no trace
is ever found of them, and their complete
disappearance and the utter impossibility OF
ever finding them after they have strayed
away, OK been stolen, has been mystery
that has caused considerable comment; but
facts have lately come to light which may
explain some OF the looseness Of equine
property.
decrepit horses out among the hills, which
are totally uninhabited, and any strays that
may be around will come to these herds
when they will be caught and sent out to
other parties connected with the gang, and
in few days they will have the horse hun
dreds of miles from where it was picked up,
and then offer it for sale with safety. Facts
lead to the belief that this organization
leads from near> Pierre, Oak, to Great
Falls, Mont, and possibly to the British
possessions.
Horses that are stolen near Pierre are run
north through the Coteaus, travelling long
distances by night and are sold in the north
ern field, while horses that are stolen in the
north are sent south and sold or traded be-
tween here and Pierre. A vigilante commit
tee of large dimensions should go north and
clear out these organized bands of thieves.

SOME ATROCIOUS EXPERIMENTS.
Horrible Compounds That Were Given for

Horrible Compounds That Were Given for
Medicine In This Century.
For whimsicality says London paper,
commend US to the sympathetic liniment,"
supposed to cure wounds by being merely
applied to the weapon which had caused
them, and consisting, with the addition of
fine bole, and the simple oils of linseed and
roses, ofhuman fat, powder of fmummymah's
blood, and moss from the skull of one killed
by violence. What more horrible compound
could be imagined? There is scent Of
witchcraft about it worthy of Hecate and
the three weird sisters, whose charmed
pot" contained items scarcely more hideous;
vet, such was the faith or infatuation of the
period, that both Sir Kenelm Digby and
the Irish empiric Greatrakes are said to have
effected cures with it. Let not otmodern,wisdom,
however, laugh at the folly ofits forefathers,
when we find in a newspaper of 1847, an
account OF woman swallowing a human
skull, powdered and mixed in treacle, in
occasional doses, as an antidote for epi-
lepsy.
Even this, disgusting as it seems, ,dwindles
into the comparative indifference Of a dose
of ordinary bone-dust, besides the brutal
expedient of tearing the heart from a black
hen while living, to roast and powder it for
a similar purpose; or dividing, alive, a snow
white pigeon to bind the separated halves
to the feet of patient suffering from the
same formidable disease. Both these afro
cious experiments were, however, perpe-
trated within the last 80 years, the one at q
little village in Essex, not 20 miles from
London, the other in a remote hamlet of
Kent

THE NEW NATIONAL zoo.
Next Summer TO See n Model Animal Gar
den in Washington.

Next Summer TO See n MODEL amman Oar-
den in Washington.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
WASHINGTON, August 10.-Although
the site for the National Geological Park
was laid off six weeks ago, Mr.. Hornaday,
the curator, saws that it is not possible
to remove the little zoo at the
Smithsonian building into the new quart
ers until next spring or summer. Sur
veyors are busy now in running the lines on
the twelve different pieces Of property en-
braced in the park. Until this work is
completed and the computations made of
the area in each piece, the land will not
nor will any part of the purchase money be
paid out.
The average cost per acre OF this park of
16O acres is 81, 200. six acres of it having
been acquired as gift from the owners of
Woodley Park, a picturesque suburb of the
fashionable northwest. This six acres lies
along Rock creek, in long strip 125 feet
wide, and affords a fine boulevard for an ap-
proach TO the Zoo Park. Curiously enough,
Rock creek describes, in passing through
the park, large italic 2, which may very
ftly be said to stand for zoo.
The severe floods this summer have
served an excellent warning upon the Park
Commission. At the time of the heavy
rainfall, when Johnstown was swept away,
Rock creek rose q feet in its passage
through the park. Had the various
buildings, pens and yards of the
Zoo been placed on the level meadow
land, not an animal would have been left
alive. Three times the creek has risen high
enough to submerge what might be very
naturally taken for an ideal site for cages
and yards. The line of the highest water
has been carefully staked out, and the Zoo
buildings will be put on the highest ground
to be had.
The upland meadow and grove will be
laid off into a deer and buffalo park. To-
day, by the way, Mr.. Hornaday was notified
of gift to the Zoo of four more buffalos, to
come from the herd at Pembina, North
Dakota. Efforts will be made next winter to
secure a herd of elks from Northern
Minnesota. The ponds for the otter and
beaver and other aquatic animals will need
to be protected from possible foods in the
stream by high dixie.
The result os the food was to change the
course of Rock creek at two points in the
park, by distance of several rods. A large
poplar tree coming down stream lodged and
formed gorge that turned the stream into
a new channel and left the old one as dry as
bone. WOrkmen are now damming the
new channel and restoring the stream to its
old course

AFRAID OF INDIANS.
One of the Clerks of the Sioux Commission
Is Now a Rnvirg Maniac-He Was
Badly Scared by the Actions
of Old Sitting Bull.

OIL Oio S1tting Bull
CHICAGO, August 1O.-The exciting
scenes and danger to the Sioux Commission,
which Sitting Bull created in his efforts to
prevent the signing of the treaty which has
just been concluded. drove one of the Com
missioner's clerks into violent insanity.
The young man is Everett Corbin, brother
of Lieutenant Colonel H. c. Corbin, at
tached to General Crooks headquarters in
Chicago. He us now at large, having es-
capped from DR.. Gray's sanitarium in North
Evanston. Corbin is very violent at times.
The day before he escaped he struck an at
tendant heavy blow with a stick. 1t is
feared that he will injure or kill some one
his wanderings or that he. may commit
suicide.
Corbin had been attending Harvard Col
lege for two years and had studied so hard
that ne had undermined his health. On the
recommendation of physician Lieutenant
Colonel Corbin took him to California, and
in May last got him attached to the Sioux
Commission as a clerk. About six weeks
ago, when the excitement was so high from
the menaces of Sitting Bull and his band,
Corbin suddenly became a raving maniac.
He wa 8 started for Chicago in charge of
two men, escaping from them twice before
reaching here.
Each time he was recaptured only by rea-
son of some violent outbreak. Corbin has
been raving ever since his confinement of
the glory and honor he could attain by join
ing the commission and returning home
with them. This idea was uppermost in his
mind, and it Is thought he has started west
ward to the Sioux reservation. He is un-
idoubtedly walking, as he had no money.

1T is ALL THE RAGE.
A Number of Physicians Are Trying the
Brown-Sequnrd Discovcry-Confiict.
ing Results In Some Cases
No Injurious Effects

No Injurious Effects
Ar Least.
CHICAGO, August 10.-Health Commis-
sioner DeWolf was asked to-day what sue
cess he had met with in the administration
of DR.. Brown-Sequard's Elixir of Life.
81 have administered this solution" the
doctor said, ''once day to ten people, every
day since last Tuesday. They have been,
for the most part, cripples and other sick
people whom have called into my Office
from all the streets. 1 have. however, ad-
ministered it to physician of LAGRANGE,
physician of Joliet and physician of Chi
cago. The Chicago physician is DR.. G. p.
Hathaway, who is a great sufferer from
disease of the heart and dropsy. I have
also administered it three times to lady
who has been confined to her bed for three
or four weeks with nervous prostration with
out any organic disease"
"What has been the effect of the treat
ment?"
II can say that in no case has it been fol-
lowed by unpleasant or injurious effects. 1
can say, further, that some of the patients
claim to have been much benefited. The
effects on the condition of tine lady referred
to have been very marked and very bene-
fetal. DR.. Hathaway, on the other hand,
has undergone little or no change"
"What opinion have you formed of this
remedy?"
"Ot course, have no settled opinion yet.
But believe that in organic diseases it acts
as stimulant without any subsequent de-
preston. The people who are benefited be-
gin in few minutes to feel well, as if they
had taken a little champagne, and they
keep on feeling so. The good done seems to
be permanent"
A dispatch from Cincinnati says: DR..
Harper, of the City Infrmary. has tried the
Brown-Sequsrd elixir on FIVE inmates of the
infrmary, injecting the fluid in 40 minutes
after the death of the animal from which
the material was taken. He gave no in
timation to his patients of the nature of the
experiment. They were all inirm men over
20 years of age, except one, who was about
40, but was q rheumatic cripple. The doctor
reports that only one observed any result
Whatever, and he said he felt like he had
taken an alcoholic stimulant. The doctor
concludes that results found elsewhere are
the result of mental excitement.
