Although William w. Nickals is a
rich man, his money has not brought
him happiness in his domestic affairs.
His wife Julia would rather separate
than live another day with the man
she vowed to honor, love and obey.
The pretty home at 164l San Pablo
avenue is a wreck, and from this time
on Mr.. and Mrs. Nickals will walk in
different paths OF life.
The family skeleton was presented
to public view yesterday when the ar
ticles Of separation between the
couple were recorded. They are very
complete and are drawn up in such a
manner that the parties desire neve
to meet each other again in this life.

a~ration that Mrs. Nickals shall never
call upon her husband without his
consent, nor shall she ever send him
a letter, nor shall she enter any house
or room where he may be staying
without his full permission. In con-
sideration OF the agreement the wife
takes 10000 in cash as her share OF
the property and releases all her in
terest in the community property.
Mr.. Nlckals is reputed to be worth

Tue WORK ~CoMmENCEn.
The Surveyor for the Salt Lake
and q Fran cisco Railroad Ar

~
rive.
There is no doubt whatever, says
the Reno Gazette, but what the Great
Salt Lake and San Francisco railway
will be a Ego" Work OF surveying
has already commenced. The sur
veyors are in the field. There will be
a boom in Reno within a short time,
and soon the undeveloped OF
our great State will become known to
the outside world. Acres and acres
Of land that are now lying idle and
covered with sagebrush will be trans
formed into fertile and productive
farms. Little villages in Nevada that
nov consist Of but two or three hun
dred people will in the next few years
become towns OF importance, with
their population increased by thou
sands Of people from the East.
Yes, beyond all doubt, the great air
line railroad will be started and fin
ished. A corps OF fourteen surveyors
in charge OF j. @. Jameson, came up
from San Francisco this morning and
changed ears for Chat, California.
They had with them their instruments.
beds and baggage.
While at the present time they do
not care TO make everything known TO
the public they were kind enough to
give the Gazette reporter some insight
into their plans.
assEN
"The work has commenced" said
one Of the surveyors, "and it will be
pushed rapidly onward until it is fin
ished. This is but one of the many
surveying corps now in the field.
They are stationed at different points
in Utah, California and Nevada, and
will be increased, and as soon as the
surveys are accepted men will be put
to work laying the track. All work
will be pushed forward as rapidly as
possible.
"No, | cannot say whether the road
will 60 directly through Reno or not,
but in any case the people can rest
assured that il will come so near to
this town as to do it an enormous
amount OF good. l cannot authori-
lively say that the road will go through
Reno, neither can | say that it will
not"
"Have you heard anything con-
corning having a division terminus in
Reno?" asked the reporter.
"Well, OF course, as a matter OF
fact, there are many surmises made
and a great deal OF talk concerning
the starting Of the new road. OF course
this road will have to have divisions
the same as any other, and should
the road go through Reno it will un-
doubtedly be the end Of n division.
In that case Reno will have the shops,
engine houses, etc. This is about all
| can tell you at present."
This was the extent OF the informa-
ton given to the reporter, but it is
sufficient to let the people OF
beautiful little city know that there is
"a good time coming" and that act
ual work on the road has commenced.

MS MARRIAGE WAS FAILURE.

A Beatrice. Neb., man named Will
lam Truesdale has secured an abso-
Lutte divorce on the novel ground that
his wife Amelia is an incorrigible liar.
He says that during their three years
of married life his wife has told at
least 10000 lies. In his petition for
divorce he says: "She cannot tell
the truth, and while it is in the nature
Of a disease / believe it is incurable."
Here are a few OF the yarns told by
his wife which Truesdale cited in his
petition filed in court: She told him
that his mother had been found dead
in bed. murdered by unknown per-
sons; that their nearest neighbor and
his best friend had attempted a Grim
inal assault upon her; that she had
received a letter from a lawyer in her
old home, telling her she had inner
tied a fortune, and to send her $50 at
once (she spent the money for a new
dress) ; that their little son had fallen
in the well and broken his leg Che was
asleep in the crib at the time) {; that
their minister had eloped with a SER
want girl, leaving his wife and five
children destitute, which story, when
repeated by him, was the means Of
costing him 800 and a deal OF trouble
to keep from being convicted OF GRIM
inal libel. There was a long string OF
equally interesting fables in Mr.. Trues-
dale's petition, and the Court took
mercy on him and granted q divorce.

General James B. Weaver, in his
great speech Of three hours at Coun-
Gil Bluffs. Iowa, on the 9TH day Of
July, devoted one hour and forty-fve
minutes to the subject of the free
coinage oil silver at the present ratio
OF 16 to |. 1t is the clearest and most
forcible argument for free coinage that
has ever been made by any Of the
great champions. He will electrify
the people OF Reno and Virginia upon
this subject as well as upon all other
subjects he may dwell upon. 1t is a
pity that every man and woman in
the State cannot hear him.

The Walker Lake Bulletin says:
The Republican State Central Com
mittee has issued a call for a meeting
OF its members, presumably to fix the
time OF holding a State convention at
Reno. Would it not be well for the
Republicans throughout the State to
hold mass meetings and express their
feeling in reference to the subject OF
the State Convention indorsing the
nominees Of the Silver party Of Ne
vsda? The Republican State Con-
vention should not place a Presiden-

A WONDER OF SCIENCE.
Eaectricity in a Surgical Operation.

One of the most delicate surgical oper-
ations ever performed in San Francisco
was that to which A. Baehm, a patient
at the City and County Hospital, was
subjected recently. The operation was
remarkable in that an endoscope or small
electric light was used during the pro-
cess. This was thrust into 1.-THE thoracic
cavity, and by it's illumination the faction
of the heart and lungs was plainly visi-
bic. This is the first case reported on
the Pacific coast where the electric en-
doscope was used in difficult surgery
with beneficial results.
Baehm was afflicted with an abscess.
which had formed in the pleural cavity
and attacked the left lung. The opera
ton was an exceedingly dangerous one,
and in order not to shock the patient no
mention of the physicians was made to
him.
The sick man was quickly an@sthetized
and the inflated breast was exposed to
view. A discoloration ON the left side
showed that the trouble lay under the
GlSouS Ill tlitb uilSCt1Ou duu LII. ElllH
began operations at once by making two
deep missions crosswise, from which the
blood spurted in streams. Several of the
larger blood vessels were necessarily cut,
but these were quickly ligatured with Dr..
Stillman's assistance. The flaps of flesh
were laid to one side, exposing the third
rib to view. This rib was resected for
three inches, and when it was cut away
a dark and bloody opening was revealed,
through which the thoracic cavity and
the space between the lungs could be
seen. DR.. Hirschfeider inserted the ed
doscope through the opening in Baehms
breast and the light was turned on illu-
minating the interior of the cavity with
remarkable distinctness.
The heart worked slowly. owing to the
effect of ether. The aorta dilated and
fell with every heart beat. The lung was
also plainly visible. During the one
hour and half consumed in making the
operation the action of the heart was dis
tinctly visible, and the unusual sight was
the subject of much comment upon the
part of the operators and spectators.
When the process was completed and
every vestige of pus removed, the en-
doscope was withdrawn and the opening
in Baehm's breast closed. The operation
was highly successful one in every par
particular, and Baehm's condition shows
that he is gaining strength.

MISCELLANEOUS.
The Cotton Picker.

A statement of fact which bore the
Endorsement of a committee of the Bos,
ton Chamber of Commerce. the presi-
dents or cashiers Of five of Boston s
biggest banks. and of two hundred
and fifty of Boston's leading citizens
would be accepted the world over
without question. 1t is by eyldence OF
precisely this nature that the New Eng
land investors in the stock OF the cotton
Picker Company have become con-
WINGED that their money. is not only
safe, but bound to yield very large
returns.
True, the Company's factory is located
in Waco, Tex, and not in Boston, and
the cotton picked by the Company's
machines during the past season was
picked near Waco, and not from cotton
growing on Boston Common, and for
this reason the evidence comes from
Waco and not from Boston, but this
makes it not one whit less trustworthy.
Waco is the fourth city OF lexas IN
population and wealth, and stands well
to the front in the enterprise and pro-
bity of its business men. A statement
regarding facts coming under the per-
sonal observation of committee of the
Board of Trade, the officials OF every
one of its banks, and two hundred and
fifty of its leading citizens, and certified
to over the signatures OF all OF these,
must carry with it unquestloned con-
viction.
When the Cotton Picker Company
puts forth the claim that its machine
can pick cotton at saving of eighty
five per cent of its cost, and that it
can, pick cleaner sample than the hand
picked, it supports its claim by precisely
this evidence from men who say that it
did do just this in their presence.
Investors have only to satisfy them
selves that these are facts, to see at
once that the stock of the Cotton Picker
Company must very soon rise to
value almost without a precedent in
recent years.
1t will save for the cotton-raisers of
the South in hard cash every year
nearly ninety millions of dollars. The
yearly profits of the Company need be
less than this immense sum only by SO
much as the cotton-grower shall be per
mitted to share in its benefits. But only
small portion of it earned upon cap
italization of five millions must give to
the stock, as soon as the machines can
he supplied in sufficient quantities,
value calculated to give affiuence to the
smallest shareholder.
The machine can be seen in operation
daily at the Company's Office, 81 Milk
Street, where shares can now be pur-
chased.
