A painful accident happened to P. Sit
ton in the wood working shops yesterday
afternoon. Mr.. Sltton was holding a
piece of wood against the circular saw
when the timber split and several large
splinters entered his hands, badly GRIP
pling them. One splinter. about one
half by fve-eIghts inches square was
forced through his right hand. The
splinter entered between the thumb and
first finger and passed through the ten
dons of the hand, making a bad wound.
He pulled the stick out but the pain of
the operation was so great that it caused
him to faint. Several smaller splinters
imbedded themselves in the muscles of
the left arm so deep as TO have to be cx-
tricated with a knife.
DIR. Maynard was called to attend the
wounded man. Sitton will be laid up for
some time

A VISIT TO THE ASYLUM
1t is Found to be as Neat as a
New Pin.
How the Laramie County Patients
are Thriving.
Mrs. Shaw the Latest Inmate Sent
From Here.

Sheriff Kelley and Clerk of Court
Sam Atkinson returned yesterday from
Evanston where they took Mrs. Shaw to
be placed in the asylum. No trouble was
experienced on the journey as Mrs. Shaw
was very quiet and not violent as it was
expected she would be.
Her vagaries have taken a religious
turn and she thinks now that she is an
angle. She will do nothing and allow no
one to do anything for her unless she
thinks her fellow angles have appointed
that the act should be done. She knew
the sheriff and called him Kelley, but
dubbed Sam Atkinson Fitzpatrick"
and that was the alias he went by during
the journey. Sam would ask her If she
wanted a drink of water and she would
reply that the angels had not yet APP
pointed hat she should drink" Finally
she became thirsty and said, Fitzpatrick,
the angles have appointed that you bring
me a glass of water"
Her keepers became rather sleepy and
the sheriff vent into the smoker to try
and rest, leaving Fitzpatrick to watch
the patient. She noticed that Sans
eyes were rather heavy and said to him,
go to sleep Fitzpatrick. 1 and my angel
sisters will watch while you rest"
There were a number of young ladies'
in the car and Mrs. Shaw began to talk a
little bit too freely. When Kelley re-
turned from the smoker he found the
young ladies gathering up their bundles
preparatory to moving into another car.
When the train reached Evanston, DR..
Hooker was at the depot to meet them.
He offered his hand to Mrs. Shaw but
she sprang back saying, Don't touch me;
o are not appointed by the angels to
touch me-" She knew the doctor,
however. and told him that she
was going to California and
would stop over to visit him when she re-
turned. DR.. Hooker Immediately ordered
a bath for the patient but she objected
most strenously. The doctor tried to rea-
son with her but she would not consent,
exclaiming, Il am an angel. and angels
are ALWAYS clean and pure, we never need
to battle" The bath, however. was given
in spite OF her entreaties. When the
officers LETT the asylum she had Gained
down and was perfectly quiet.
Mrs. Harland, who is at the asylum
from this county, could not be seen as she
was having one of her violent spells.
Mr.. Nolan, another of Laramie county
patients, is much better and knew both of
the officers, shook hands with them, and
asked many questions about Cheyenne.
Mrs. McGuise has increased much IN
weight and is looking exceedingly we'll.
She seems perfectly well for weeks at a
time and is seldom violent, although by
no means cured.
There are twenty. nine inmates in the
asylum, all of whom have different vaga-
ries. The officers say that the asylum is
most neat and clean. The walls are nicely
whitewashed and the rooms are as neat as
a pin. The grounds are nicely kept and
In every respect the asylum seems to be a
model institution.

Some of the Eddy street business men
made a proposition to MIR. Kent to run q
track from where the track enters Fergu
son street down Nineteenth to Eddy. The
idea is to run the cars of the Capitol
avenue line and Nineteenth street line
around on Eddy street before they reach
Sixteenth street. He told them that if
they would pay for putting in the track
that he would furnish the material, but
that he would not lay any more track
unless some che else paid for it as the
business of the company would not at
present warrant any extension of the
system.

The return to Milwaukee of Kyrle A.
Sidley after an absence of forty-one years
is to his relatives almost as if the dead
had come to life. The father of Mr.. Sid
ley was a physician and druggist in Mil
waukee In the forties. Kyrle Sidley
spent most Of his youth in the east, but
was in Milwaukee during the year 1s49.
The next year he went east and shipped
as q sailor.
In 1861 Mr.. Sidley went to Australia.
For some time his relatives heard from
him regularly. Suddenly the CORE
spondence ceased, and for thirty years
he was mourned as dead. AS was after,
ward learned Mr.. Sidley lost everything
by fire, the addresses of his relatives be-
ing destroyed. The families had moved
and his letters did not reach their proper
destination. Likewise Mr.. Sidley had
moved and the letters sent by his fam
lily failed to reach him.
Three years ago he employed a lawyer
to find his relatives, and after a few
months he was in communication with
them. This year Mr.. Sidley, now sixty
two years of age, decided to visit his
relatives in Milwaukee,, and he arrived
there this week from Australia. He
found two of his sisters living there, and
a brother came from New York to meet
him. After his visit Mr.. Sidley will re.
turn to Australia.-Chicago Tribune.

A nEKo AT
Blacksmith Payton Enters the Burn
ing Nine TO Warn the WorKmen.

The Douglas Budget contains partic-
ulars of the mine fire at GIenrock which
show blacksmith Jim Payton to be con-
siderable of a hero.
When the ire broke out nine men
were at work in the mine. LOO feet
from and beyond the fire. Payton re-
allied at a glance that unless they were
warned Immediately they would be I'M
able to get out, aud he also knew that in
passing the fire and penetrating LOO feet
further into the mine he himself might
never be able to repass the flames. He
did not hesitate, however. but hurried on.
warned the miners and returned with
them to the air-course where, by this
time, the slope was filed with a dense
smoke and the air course itself a vertible
hell OF flames. Falling upon their
hands and knees the men crawled up the
slope and reached the mouth in safety.
There are 5000 feet of track, 1000 feet
of steam pipe and two pumps in the
mine, besides ftty-fve pit cars, valued at
machine valued at 81 No approx
mate figures can be made until the mine
is reopened as to the total loss, but it is
certain to run into the tens of thousands
of dollars.
1t will be two or three months before
the mine will be again IN running order.
Manager Harrison is now East comforting
with the officers of the company, and it is
possible that the coal vein will be tapped
at a new place by a shaft, and operated
until the old workings are again available,
when coal will thereafter be mined from
slope and shaft.

What They are Good For.


Brandreth's Pills are the best medicine
known.
First-They are purely medical, in fact
a medicated food.
Second-The same dose always pro-
duccs the game effect-other purgatives
require increased doses md finally cease
acting.
Third They purify the blood.
Fouith-They %invigorate the system
and cleanse the stomach and bowels.
Fiith-They stimulate the liver and
carry off yitiated bile and other depraved
secretions.
The first two or three doses tell the
story. The skin becomes clear, the eye
bright. the mind active, digestion is re-
stored, costiveuess cured, the animal vigor
is recruited and all decay arrested.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.
