HUNTING FOR HIS WIFE.
AN EPISODE WHICH OCCURRED
AT THE NEEDLES.
A Dashing Brunette Proves Fickle to
Her Marriage Vows.

DR.. Booth, in the last issue of the
Needles Eye, thus describes the latest
social sensation of that summer resort
or resort of summer:
Last Friday morning there came to
Needles man by the name of Aiken,
and from his manner it was plain that
he was earnestly attending to his busi-
ness, whatever the nature of that busi-
ness might be. But he scrupled not to
makesknown his business, for his heart
was heavy and his feelings ruffled, and
he longed to meet face to face the man
who had robbed him of his own true
love.
According to Mr.. Aiken's version OF
the affair, he and his young wife visited
Kingman Wednesday. They came from
Chloride to the capital of Moiave, to
make some purchases and otherwise
enjoy themselves in the metropolitan
sights and pleasures OF the town. They
came, they saw, they enjoyed, but alas
for the susceptible nature of Mrs. Aiken,
who came in contact with Mr.. A. Foster,
and fell deeply, madly, irretrievably in
love with him, they didn't 90 home to-
gether. To meet and to love was but
frigid life for these ardent lovers to live,
and they yearned for closer contact, for
lifelong association. There was but one
way by which their fond hopes could be
realized, and that was by fight. To fly to
deep vale shut out by alpine hills
from the rude world, near clear lake
margined by fruits of gold and whis-
pering myrtles. CHASING softest skies, as
cloudless save with rare and roseate
shadows as would be their fate. With
no friends that were not lovers, no
books to read that were not tales of love,
they would smile to think how poorly
eloquence of words translates the DO
etry OF hearts like theirs. And go they
skipped the tra-la-lee, checking their
baggage for Needles, that shady dell on
the red, raging, Colorado, where loves
young dream can be so happily fostered
and translated into blissful reality. Mr..
Aiken says the truant lovers took with
them the sack too, and that the sack
contained $3.50. He describes his un-
faithful spouse as being about 27 years
of age, dashing brunette with dark
blue eyes, and black luxuriant hair.
Mr.. Foster is we'll known to our commu-
nifty, having gained some notoriety by
selling whiskey to Indians at Red Rock,
and also for having violated the reserva-
tion laws at Fort Mojave during Captain
Bowman's administration, on account of
which violation his stock of liquors were
emptied upon the arid soil of the Fort,

A Deaf and Dumb Policeman.

There are many positions that deaf
mute can fill as well as man in posses
sion of all of his faculties, but patroling
a beat as a policeman is about the least
likely occupation in which a deaf and
dumb man might be expected. Cleve-
land, O., however, has, or had not long
ago, deaf and dumb policeman, who
has walked beat for years and never
given occasion for complaint. It is said
he lost the power of hearing and speech
by stroke of paralysis, but recovered
his health without regaining all his fac
ulties. He was on the force at the time
and begged to be retained.
The authorities We're 10th to discharge
him, so gave him a trial He proved as
efficient as the others, and so held his
position. He wore a badge, "Deaf and
Dumb Policeman" but answered in
writing any questions that were asked
him as intellgently as any one. AS he
cannot hear sound, he is obliged to be
more than usually watchful; his eyes are
always ON the move, and he sees every
thing that occurs in his vicinity.

Orange county, who assisted in the case,
but was not the attorney of record. The
court holds: "Tbe statute does not say
that the attorney verifying the memo
randum must be the attorney of record,
and there is no reason for such require
ment. The order is reversed
with directions to hear the motion to
tax costs on any other grounds named
therein, but to overrule the objection

THE HERALD LAKE.
Captain Fraser, Of Banning, to Make
Thorough Exploration.

Captain Fraser, Of Banning, to Make
Thorough Exploration.
The Banning correspondent of the San
Bernardino Times-Index has the follow
ing about HERALD lake at Salton:
The Salton sea is still the main topic
of conversation here. All the world is
now familiar with the voyage from
Yuma to Salton, via the Colorado, made
by the intrepid editor of the Banning
Herald. Another OF our townsmen,
Captain Thomas E. Fraser, is not salts
fed with the geographical results OBJ
tanned by Mr.. Patton. The captain is
of opinion that the lake at Salton COM
municates with the gulf, as we'll as with
the river; that Hardy's Colorado ex-
tends from the ocean (has been,
indeed, created by the immense
tidal waves called bores,) to
New river, and, through it, to the
lake. Captain Fraser is determined to
solve this problem. He has procured a
suitable boat and crew, has stored a
supply of provisions for a long cruise
and will explore the country between
Salton and the gulf. The boat will
probably sail from the salt works at
sundown this evening, cross the lake,
skirt its southern border, enter each
afauent and follow its course to its ulti-
mate source. Captain Fraser is a
thorough engineer and we may expect
his map to be absolutely accurate. This
wonderful phenomenon OF the desert,
although seventy miles distant, is afford
ing Banning large amount of gratui-
tous advertising. We hope the lake
may have an inlet from the gulf, thus
insuring its permanence. Thousands ol
acres would thereby be added to South
ern California's g arabic land, and delight.

aridity of the desert.

What They Are Good For.

BRANDRETHs PILLS are the best medicine
known.
First-They are purely vegetable, in fact
medicated food.
.Second-The same dose always produces the
same efect-other purgatives require increased
doses and finally cease acting
Third-They purify the blood.
FJurth-They invigorate the digestion and
cleanse the stomach and bowels
FUth-They stimulate the liver and carry off
vitiated 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 Ia restored, costiveness
cured, the animal vigor is recruited and all
decay arrested.
BRANDRETHs PILLS are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar coated.
