DREAMING OF 40.
An ola Man Who Imagined he Was
Prospecting.

An OLD Man Who Imagined He Was
Prospecting.
About o'clock yesterday morning a
railroad employe notified Night Jailer
Naghel at the police station that there was
an old man on the bank of the river who
was acting queerly and he feared the man
was premeditating suicide.
Officer Naghel went over to the river
and there found an old man standing on
the edge Of the bank. Being asked what
he was doing there the man replied that
he was mining. He admitted that he
didn't think the claim was going to pay
very well.
The Office saw that the man had been
in water up to his knees, and as his talk
and actions indicated that he was badly
ratified. Naghel escorted him to the police
station, where he gave the name of J.. w.
Woods.
Later in the day he was sent to the
County Hospital. He appeared to be
about 90 years of age, and is probably one
OF the many human relics of 1.-The days of
old. the days of gold, the days of '49," that
exist in different parts of the State.

ored TO tear his clothes off.
The officer was in his shirt sleeves, and
Ranlett stripped one of his arms bare be-
fore he could be overpOwered and showed
into one of the tanks

Love and Marriage in Japan.


Sir Edwin Arnold, who has been en-
joying an interesting trip through the
United States, has made a careful study
of the conditions which govern the
family in Japan and embodles his ideas
in a paper called "Love and Marriage
in Japan" in the February number of
the Cosmopolitan. The article is illus
trated by the quaintest possible Japa-
nese sketches running down the sides
and across the bottom OF each page.
An excellent photograph of w. D..
Howells, serves as a frontispiece, and
his work as writer of fiction is re-
viewed in the same number by H. Fl.
Boyesen. The president of John Hop
kin's University gives most practical
paper for parents on "Boys and Boys
Schools" illustrated by cartoons of the
famous Atwood. Murat Halstead
turns back lovingly to his early farm
days, and tells of the "Pets and Sports

GOOD o IOWA.

The lower house Of the Iowa Legisla-

full legal tender for all debts. dues and
demands in that State. II is hardly
necessary to say that the lower house Of

the local silver bill in the State Of Iowa is a
very strong move in behalf Of the silver
cause. 1t shows that the people of that
geat State are not afraid Of that ques.
ton, no matter in what guise it may be
presented. Iowa is doing even better
than Nevada for silver. There is not a
State bond nor q county bond nor 9 pri-
vate transaction between individuals 10

rule prevails in California and all over

what we preach. We claim to be ardent
silver men. while tabooing II on every
hand. We are very inconsistent to say
the least, Iowa has started out to teach
us q lesson. All Of the silver States
could profit by her example with credit
to themselves and decent behavior to-
ward the cause which they pretend to
