PHYSICAL SUFFERING.
1t is Often a Revelation of Nature, War;
ing Us of Danger.

ing Us of Danger.
In a certain sense, according to a writer
in Hearth and Home, pain is remonstrance
from the vital energies, intended as a
warning, when the laws of our being, the
physical laws, are violated, preparing the
way for disease and suffering. If improper
digestible, taken improperly, too fast, or at
improper times, pain in the stomach, or
dizziness, may be regarded as revelation
suggesting change of habits, or the pro-
priety, the necessity for treatment, that
the penalty may be removed. If an in
jury is sustained, an accident occurs, the
pain is not only a warning, but an
evidence that there is sufficient vital
ity remaining to aid in the re-
covery, the absence of pain under
such circumstances being good evidence
that paralysis has occurred, the hopeless
ness of the case being denoted by the in
ability of the vital powers to sound the
pain-alarm and to arouse sufficient energy
to institute the necessary means of re-
cuperation and recovery.
This is designated as a condition in
which the system is below pain," while
that in which there are no disease or de-
rangement of any kind, or when all of ma
lures laws have been regarded-if such
cases exist-may be "above pain" Pain,
therefore, whether intended as an alarm,
or resulting from vigorous efforts of the
recuperative, vital powers, may be re-
garded as blessing, indicating that re-
covery is possible. 1t serves as a merciful
stimulus or an invitation to the victim to
cooperate with nature in her curative
efforts, nature ordinarily acting as the in
ternal physician-rarely receiving due
credit, while another may receive more
than the circumstances may justify.
Hence, it is the part of wisdom
to search for and remove the causes
of such pains, thus bringing their impor-
tant mission to an end, with no occasion
to grapple with dangers, rather than to
use opiates to hush these needed alarms,
sitting the physical conscience, so locking
up the vital powers that they are unable
to aid in curative efforts, crippling nature
in every possible manner.

GARDENERS EXAMINATION.
Testimony of the Prosecution Heard an
the Case Goes On.

Testimony of tine Prosecution Heard and
the Case Goes On.
Daniel Gardner was partially examined
in the Police Court yesterday on charge
of committing criminal assault on Lizzie
Cox, a girl eleven years of age.
The examination was held at the after
noon session. s. S. Holl defended Gardner
and City Attorney Hart and G. G. Davis
conducted the prosecution.
The Courtroom was crowded with spec
tators eager to hear the testimony in the
case, but they were doomed to disappoint-
ment. The City Attorney asked that the
case be conducted with closed doors out of
consideration for the mother and little
girl, who would be compelled to state to
the Court matters which they did not wish
to be heard by large and curious crowd
OF people.
Attorney Holl said it was matter of in
difference TO the defense.
Judge Buckley read the law to the effect
that spectators couid not be excluded from
the room except at the request of the de-
PENDANT.
Mr.. Holl then stated that for the sake of
the prosecution he would come to their re-
lief and ask that the order be made. The
Court then ordered the spectators from the
room and the examination was proceeded
with.
The testimony of the prosecution was
heard and the further hearing was post
poned until this afternoon at O'clock.
The testimony taken went to show that
the Cox girl was introduced to Gardner by
Cora Mains at the race.track during the
State Fair, and afterwards on three occa-
sions the Cox girl visited Gardner's wood
yard and was asked into the house by him.
The defense were about to show that the
prosecuting witness being over ten years of
age, and giving her consent, could not, I'M
der the law, sustain the charge against the
defendant, but City Attorney Hart re-
minded the Court that the statutes of 1889
had changed the age from ten years to
fourteen.

ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Metropolitan Theater last night
there was large audience to witness the
performance of The United States Mail. !"
an extravaganza by George @. jerks. 1t is
not even farce, since there is no plot, not
even the shadow of suggestion Of story.
1t is simply means to bring upon the
stage twelve very clever character actors in
variety performance, broadly humor
There is no play, no relation established
by any of the people on the stage with
anything that by any possibility can be
connectedly related. As variety enter
tsinment of song and dance and the per-
sonstion of eccentric chars cters. it is very
ENJOYABLE enc, q merry and laughter pro-
voking show. For the people are all capa-
BILE of good farce work, and 1t Is pity that
they have not the opportunity in a
play worthy of the name, Miss Parker is a
very attractive dancer and clever s3ubrette.
She sings nicely, and her Spanish song
and dance is notably good performance
She is graceful and willowy in motion,
poses admirably and expresses pantomim-
ically with effectiveness. Miss Bockwe.Ps
Tyrolean songs are excellent features OF
the entertainment also. There are some
duos and trios given that are melitorious,
and comic and character songs in great va
riety that greatly please the auditors.
Some of these performances are up TO the
best standard. and none of them are poor.
Frank David and William Jerome are low
comedians OF great cleverness, aud il they
could have parts in plot substantial
enough to be described they would give
life and character 20 even dull farce or a
poor comedy. A very small boy, Harry
O'Lynn, does character songs and dances
neatly. He is certainly precocious child.
a. The q. S. Mail, intended to be a satire,
but which is a string of sharp puus and
merry repartee, with clever songs and
dances, will be given for the last time to-
night

and is in the habit of herding them along
the streets in the southwestern portion of
the city.
John Lang owns little piece of property
on Seventeenth and w streets, and has
made some improvements in the way of
setting out young trees on the curling.
Last Sunday McCarty mesndered over
Lang's place with his cows.
Lang marched out of the house and gave
MoCarty to understand that he would have
to herd his COWS elsewhere.
McCarty happened TO be reading paper
at the time and upon being addressed so
abruptly he got mad. He told Lsng in
very strong language that beintended to let
his cows Craze wherever he pleased.
Thereupon Lang had McGarty arrested
for disturbing the peace.
The facts as above stated were brought
out at the trial. McCarty's testimony was
given with variations from the main points
in the case. He declared, when asked
whether or not he shook club at Lang,
that he did not need 10. and that he could
stand his man off single-handed.
Judge Buckley said be considered the
case a trifling affair, and discharged the
defendant

Charles Newton aud Fred Buckingham,
the Democratic nominees for Justices of
the Peace, and w. B. Freeman, Jr, and

busy making their respective fights, and the
contests will, it is said, be an exceedingly
close one. All four candidates are very
popular in the town.
For Roadmaster it is thought that Geo.
Emory, the Republican candidate, will
withdraw. William Todhunter, the Demo-

however, in Thomas Burns, who has an

Two Constables are to be elected, and al

JENKINS IN CONTROL.
The State House Property is Returned
to Him,

The State House Property is Returned
Charles A. Jenkins, owner of the State
House Hotel property, filed a petition in
the Superior Court yesterday praying that
he be put in possession of that property.
He set forth that when he leased the hotel
to Wilson e. Kinney, the understanding
was that he was to receive a monthly rental
of 5000. On October LIST he made his usual
demand, but the money was not forth
coming. The lease contained provisions
that the lessees could not sublet any por-
ton of the premises, and that the lease
could not be assigned, in whole or in part
Later in the day the matter of the cred
itors against Wilson & Kinney came up for
hearing in Judge Armstrong; Court.
Jenkins petition was sandwiched in,
and after the Court heard the matter an
order was issued to the effect that all the
State House property be turned over to
Jenkins for non-payment of rent-that is
all property except the personal property
of the lessees, which is to be converted
into money for the benefit of creditors.
Jenkins gave the Court to understand
that he desired to resume possession OF the
property for the purpose of continuing the
hotel business.

The Weafher.

The Signal Service reports show the high
winds of yesterday extended throughout
the Sacramento valley, blowing from 20 to
40 miles per hour. The highest in this
city was SO miles. The temperature at 5 A.
NJ. and 8 P. NJ. was $50 and go. while
the highest and lowest was Sc and $50, as
against 64o and 4So on the same da;e last
year. The highest and lowest one year ago
to-day was SO and ACE, with ,06 of an inch
of rain measured. The barometer was
highest in Oregon yesterday and lowest in
California, and was falling quite rapidly all
day, which is the cause of our high and
dry northerlv breezes that were so briskly
blowing over and through the streets of the
city Yesterday.
