1t is probable now that an arrest re-
Gently made by Detective Benson of the
city police force will prove most i'm
portant capture. The prisoner is man
known as Fred Capps, and wanted in
Illinois under the alias of Frank Capps.
About three months ago this person,
with another crook, robbed an Alameda
street prostitute of $40 at the muzzle of
revolver. Detective Benson happened
to be near and captured Capp's compan-
ion, but the principal escaped with the
money.
Later on, Benson, who had had good
view of the escaped crook, met his man
and brought him in. The prisoner was
identified by the woman who had been
robbed, and served forty days in the
city Jail.
About two weeks ago, after Capps had
been discharged from the jail, a letter
was received from Pittsfeld, ILL.,. de-
scribing Capps as being wanted there
for two serious robberies, in which fell
onious assault was feature. These
crimes had been committed four years
ago, and the officials OF Pittsfield had
accidentally heard of the arrest of Capps
here.
A warrant was issued for the Grimm
aPs arrest and placed in Detective
Auble's hands to be served. Mr.. Auble
was confined to his house, however,
with illness, and Detective Benson, who
happened again to meet Capps, about q
week ago, took the latter to the sta
ton.
The news of the arrest was promptly
wired to Pittsfeld, and the sheriff there
at once repaired to Springfield to secure
papers of extradition from the governor.
Last Sunday the sheriff of Pittsfield
wired from Pueblo that he was on his
way here to claim the prisoner. On
Monday he again wired from Ogden.
On Tuesday he was at Sacramento to
present his papers to the governor, and
he is expected here this morning to
claim the prisoner. The latter, it is
said, is one Of the most notorious crooks
of the Mississippi valley.

LETTER BAG.
Prices of '49.

EDITORS HERALD: The public admin
istrator found among the effects of the
lata James w. Marshall, the discoverer
of gold in California, an old day book,
which had formerly been used by the
firm of Shannon & Cady, doing business
in Coloma in 1S49. The following are
some OF the entries that appear on its
pages of purchases made from April to
October of that year, which possess Pc
culiar interest as showing the prices
paid for groceries, provisions, etc., by
the pioneers: One bottle ale, $5; 3 bot
ties ale, SIS; box percussion caps, So /;
l hat, $40; l pair shoes, $14; bottle
pickles, 81; box herrings, $50; l bot
tie vinegar, So; frying pan, So; 2 lbs.
crackers, So; s lbs. fresh beef, $3.50; l
butcher-knife, $3.50; pair socks, So; l

rope, 81. 80; paper tacks, So; mid.
dling-sized onion for a sick man, 1858
bottle mustard, $3.50.
The onion doubtless brought tears to
the eyes of the hardy miner. The prices
of other things were in proportion to
the above. The credits were always by
gold dust, with little blank sand
thrown in, at SIG per ounce.

SENIOR CLASS DAY.
1t Is Fittingly Observed By the High
School Bows.

N~AOOA oOySs
The seniors had very successful
class day at the High school yesterday.
The programme was almost entirely of a
humorous character, and the various
participants did well.
In the forenoon the school assembled
in front of the building, where the SEN
iors lowered the national colors and
proudly unfurled a banner of their
class colors. The scholars and other
spectators assembled in the auditorium
at 1:30 to enjoy the programme pre-
pared by the seniors, who were present
in long gowns of black and yellow, with
mortar-board hats. An overture by the
orchestra opened the entertain
ment, which was followed by the
master of ceremonies, W. P. James,
who delivered few we'll directed re-
marks. Miss Lou D. Whipple next gave
the class history. A vocal solo, King of
the Forest, was rendered by Mr.. L. G.
Wells. j. Darwin Gish read the class
will, and was followed by piano solo
by Miss Clara Bennett.
The most amusing part of the pro-
gramme was the class prophecy, which
gave an imaginative view of the future
of the various members, the final scene
showing them all in an asylum.
Several college glees were also sung,
and the entire school adjourned to the
front of the building, where the class
tree was planted with the customary
ceremonies.

BENoIT HAS HOPES.

ing Offense.

A San Diegan Convicted of Revolt
ing Offense.
Constable Weller of San Diego arrived
here yesterday in charge of Charles
Benoit, who was convicted in that city
of incest, his victims being his daughters,
Mary aged IA, and Rosa aged 10 years.
The evidence at the trial showed that
the unnatural relations had been main
tanned for year past.
On reaching Anaheim Officer Weller
received telegram from Sheriff Folks
of San Diego, ordering him to bring Be-
mott back, as the court had made some
new order in the case; and on reaching
this city he received a telegram from an
other officer directing him to leave Be-
mott in charge of Chief of Police Glass
and 60 on to San Francisco where a
prisoner is waiting to be taken back to
San Diego.
1t would appear from the various or
ders that some move is under way to
secure the release of Benoit; it is very
extraordinary for Judge to recall a
criminal after be has been committed to
penitentiary and has started on his
journey.

The Craze for Souvenirs.

The popular craze for souvenirs which
now prevails among persons who have
money to spend is spreading in various
directions. Formerly the silver spoon
held undisputed sway, but now there are
souvenir bracelets, souvenir napkin
rings, souvenir buttons and souvenir
fans. The silversmiths are kept busy
getting up new and novel designs, and
each jewelry store of any Importance
has its souvenir department. Spoons of
course are still in the greatest demand
One young married woman in this town,
who is an ardent collector of souvenirs,
is the proud possessor of nearly 100
spoons, each representing a city or vii

POLITICAL GOSSIP.
Why Markham Wants to Go to Min

Why Markham Wants to Go to Min
neapolis.
The Republicans are all mixed up as
regards the delegate to be selected from
here to the national convention.
Governor Markham wants to go, and
wants to go as the chairman of the state
delegation. Colonel Otis, it is said, is
also candidate. and Gen. E. P. John
son and Senator T. j. Carran are also
described as being in the fight.
Governor Markham is a Harrison
man, the story, got from source that is
worthy of credence, being as follows !:
When Harrison started for California he
had been in correspondence with Gov
ernor Markham for some little while.
On arriving in the state, he was of
course met by the governor, and the two
had several political conferences. The
result was that Markham pledged Har-
rison his support, and in turn the presi-
dent promised that if renominated and
reelected he would give the governor a
cabinet position.

A Chance for Fame and Fortune.

EDITORS HERALD: It is a little sur
prising that some enterprising play
wright has not dramatized Edward Bel
lamy's Looking Backward, and placed
it before the footlights. The venture
would certainly have great weight in
popularizing nationalism with the mid
die and upper classes of society; and
financially, it would doubtless pay
handsomely in the hands of first-class
company, under competent manage
ment. "a hint to the wise is sufficient" /"

BRONCHITIS

Bronchitis is an Inflammation of the mucous
membrane of the bronchial tubes, and is one of
the most common of the pulmonary affections.
Chronic bronchitis more often appears later in
life. Whena cold settles on the lungs the disease
either ends in bronchitis or pneumonia. If 1T
ends in bronchitis it usually passes off as cold
on the chest, and still the patient does not feel
entirely we'll He feels tired and languid, and
is incapable of taking his usual amount of
exercise, and experiences q shOrtnesS of breath
with more or less warmth in the palms of the
hands. Soon after this a cough appears, ac
companied by an expectoration of thick mu-
and strength and night sweats continue, when
the patient assumes all the appearance of hav-
ing genuine case of consumption. But this
is simply catarrh OF the lungs or chronic brOn
chitis.
The patient usually dies from exhaustion
and suffocation, being unable to expectorate
the mucous which accumulates in the passage
leading to the lungs which in some cases is
sticky and small in quantity, but more COM
monty copious, of light straw or yellowish
Dry Bronchitis-This disease, the very oppo-
site Of the above, is a very common affection.
Very many people, who regard themselves as
quite healthy, are today under its influence,
and are slowly but surely becoming the vie
tins of this treacherous complaint. This is
the most insidious Of all pulmonary. diseases.
and an expectoration of a blush white mu-
cous. And herein lies the danger. This mu
cous, inhabiting the air cells of the lungs be-
ing dificuit to raise, after time becomes solid
flied, permanently obstructing portions of the
lungs, causing shOrtness of breath and q feeling
of oppression on the chest, particularly after
cough becomes more severe and comes on in
paroxysms, and as the shortness of breath in
creases it almost assumes the character of asth-
ma. The mucous membrane also becomes
more and more thickened, which arises from the
frequent fresh colds and the patient at last
becomes fully aware of the terrible changes that
have taken place and the inevitable results that
are to follow.
without courage and perseverance nothing is
durable, but with these, aided with our Medi-
Gated Inhalations and Compound Oxygen
Treatment Bronchitis can be cured even after
the lungs are extensively diseased.

REDSKINS TIRED OF WAR,
General Miles Says the Indian Situation ]
Not Worth Talking About.

General Miles Says the Indian Situation Is
Not Worth Talking About.
General Nelson Miles, the hero of an In
dian war without battle, was passenger
on the limited last evening, going to his
headquarters in Chicago He had beer, to
Washington, and while there increased the
number of his staff for the Worlds Fair.
The General wore patent leather shoes,
and believes in time of peace
that it pays to take life easy. He is a fine
looking man, above the average height,
with large bead we'll covered with gray
hair. He said there was nothing in the
Indian situation worth talking about. The
Pawnees and few Of the minor tribes are
dancing again, but he has no fear that the
Messiah craze will spread as it did a few
years ago. He saws the Indians are peace
able enough when they are treated properly
by the Government agents
A short time ago General Dewdney, of
Canada, made very f1attering report about
the condition of the redskins in British
America He took occasion to commend
the Canadian Indian policy, and added that
under the present system the savages were
learning to work, and soon they would be
able TO take care of themselves He was
happy that there was no trace of the Messiah
craze among them. The same thing is now
practically true of the American redskins.
They are fast drifting away from their su-
perstitious ideas, and since the last Messiah
failed to materialize the Indians are con-
WINGED they were badly hoaxed.
