THE ToNGUELEss MAN.
Strange Penance of a Gambler IL
Friestly 9arb.

Strange Penance of a Gambler in
Friestly qarb.
Los ANGELES, Feb. 21.-One Of the
greatest mysteries of this city has been that
of the tongueless man, which has just been
solved. Last November a priestly looking
man hired room at the lodging house at
the corner Of Fifth and Broadway. he was
quiet, wellsbehaved and a great church
member. One morning he was found IN
his room, blood issuing from his mouth and
a bloody razor in his hand.
On examination it was found that he had
cut out his tongue with the razor. Bloody
tracks to the door, out in the hall and the
bath room indicated that be had been there.
Search showed that he had thrown his
tongde down drain pipe. Nothing could
be learned from him about his identity He
had plenty Of money and paid his bills.
After his wound healed he disappeared He
was thought to have been Catholic priest.
1t now turns out that his name is George
Wilson. He goes garbed as priest, but he
is professional gambler. His family is
wealthy and live in New York. His father
has just died and left an estate of $4,000
$50, 900 of which was left TO him. The estate
cannot be settled up until George has been
found, and detectives from New York are
now in this city looking for him. They
state that George has been the black sheep
OF the family, and that his conduct has
caused them untold trouble. This state
ment suggested that the mans strange act
of cutting out his tongue was prompted by
remorse and humiliation for his past deeds.
When last seen in this city he was still
wearing his priestly garb, and was believed
to be staying at st. Vincent's school.

Many People Have IL and DO Not Know IL.
How to Recognize the symptoms and How
to Treat Them.
Hundreds OF people have the Grippe who do
not know It. Not necessarily the final stages,
but the first stages. They feel pains in the
head, and a bad taste in the mouth, get tired
and Respondent have chilly sensations, limbs
and muscles ache. In some cases these things
are overlooked. In most cases perhaps they
are considered simply a slight cold. In
nearly every case they indicate the coming Of
Grippe.
There is but one thing 10 do when these
symptoms appear, and that is 10 take prompt
aud vigorous measures, to fortify nature % re-
pei the enemy. A little we'll directed effort at
Just the right time will accomplish very much
more thar labored efforts afterward. There is
but one thing 10 be done, and that is TO use
pure Stimulant. something that will promptly
arrest, and In no way injure, something In

clans, and popular because so eficieut-Duffy's g

Editor Morning Nei1s: We take excep-
tions to the latter portion Of an article in
Sundays News about reckless and careless
running on the electric lines, so far as It
relates TO the Savannah street railr oad.
We are allowed by city ordinance a speed Of
8 miles per hour north of Liberty street and
10 miles per hour south Of Liberty street.
TIE Belt division OF our road is 5000
feet Of track north of Liberty street.
running time, and 2O.4O0 feet south of
Liberty street. This gives US % minutes
running time. Total the round trip 80
minutes. Our schedule is As minutes, giving
us 9 minutes for stops On the Barnard
street division we have north of Liberty
street 5000 feet with minutes running
time ana south Of Liberty street 6, 800 feet
with ~ minutes running time; total 14s(
minutes. The schedule is IS minutes, giving
334 minutes for stops, which is ample. The
horse cars on Whitaker and Abercorn street
lines take 80 minutes to make lS, 600 feet.
They are allowed miles per hour
on the whole route. This would give
them 33 minutes running time and
taking of the minutes lay over at the
office and thesame at Bay and Drayton,
leave their running time to 2S
minutes, allowing no time for stops, and
still there is no "kicking" about their fast
running.
We find the great trouble with those who
are wont to ''kick" to be with themselves
in not looking out for the electric cars when
| they come to streets used by electric cars.
and some go so far as to say the cars should
stop before crossing the streets. Some peo-
pie seem to think all of the caution and care
| should be with the motormen and none with
| themselves.
Just the same with the ringing Of the
| gongs. We have had the people to say thew
would put the road on the docket as a nuis-
| ance for ringing the gong 80 much, while
Others say the reverse. Some Of our Bar
nard street patrons have gone back TO the
| Whitaker street cars, because, they say, the
horse cars go faster. and in Fri
day evenings Press you will find the
words. "Savannah's electric cars do not 90
fast enough" So you will find kickers for
going fast and kickers for not going fast.
Our carefulness is attested by the very few
accidents caused by electric cars of this
road, and any employe who is guilty of
| carelessness is dismissed from our service.

CHANGED ITS POSITION.
A Woman's Eeart Found to be Lo
Gated in Her Right Side,


CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-A clear case Of sui
eide was the finding of the coroner's jury
upon Annie Munson, the laundress, who
died from arsenIcal poisoning. The testi-
mony Of witnesses brought out the fact
that the young woman was despondent the
Sunday morning preceding ner death owing
to the desertlon of her lover, Rudolph Ber
ling, after he had promised to marry her.
At the post mortem examination held by
DIR. Hektoen a most peculiar and rare
anatomical cnndition was found IN addition
to traces of arsenic.
In speaking of the case after the inquest
had been held in OToomes & Cummings
undertaking establishment at No. AIRS
State street DR.. Hektoen said that in hold
ing nearly 2,000 post Inortem examinations
he had never found as complete q case of
transposition as be had in the Munson ex-
animation. Every part was clearly
transposed," continued the surgeon, "and
had been so from birth. The heart was
upon the right side and the other members
of the viscera were completely transposed.
1t is a rare and most unusual case and one
that is we'll worth receiving careful atten-
ton from surgeons. The woman suffered
no inconvience therefrom. however. and
from talks have bad with her acquain-
tances and friends have learned that she
has paid but little attention to the transpo-
sition of her vital organs.n

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 21.-To-day.
Thomas l.. Doran and three companions
ell experienced in desert travel. started
from here TO hunt for the lost Peg Leg
mine, which has been one of the mysteries
of the Colorado desert for thirty years.

he will thoroughly explore the desert
country where at least dozen Of his
predecessors in this search have lost their
bones The lost mine was discovered in 1880,
by an old trapper known as Peg Leg Smith,
who found gold nuggets on three little hills,
but did not know these were gold till be
reached Los Angeles.
When gold was discovered by Marshall,
Peg Leg Smith determined to hunt for this
desert mine, but was driven off by Indians.
About 1855 miner was brought into San
Bernardlno almost dead from thirst in the
desert He recovered and showed rich
specimens which he found in three hills, not
far from Warmers ranch, and which, from
the description, were identified as the Peg
Leg mine. he had $1,000 in nuggets and
dust. and gave the doctor who cured him
$1,000. He arranged to lead party to the
mine, but suddenly sickened and died apd
his secret perished with him. Within the
last ten years no less than five parties have
started TO search for the Peg Leg mine. In
each case disaster and death have followed
them.

}onne Good Resons Why He Should Ee
Reelected.
Editor Morning Nelos: The people Of
Georgia are not only satisfied with, but
proud Of, the administration Of Gov
Northen. Nor are they at all inclined to
depart from the custom, which has pre-
vailed since 1877, of permitting the governor
to be reelected a second term without an
opponent. 1t is one OF the conceded errors
Of our constitution that the gubernatorial
term is not four instead of two years. The
incumbent can do no more than formulate
his policy during the short term of two
years, and sheer Justice demands that he
have another term in which to execute and
perfect it. Hence, the term should have
been four years. As it is, we are compelled
TO observe the letter of thu law and 90

two years when we feel we are stultifying
ourselves in so doing
But in spite of the popular sentiment 80
overwhelming on this subject, we see in
some few newspapers occasionally the men,

candidate for governor. There has never
been more opportune time than now for
the demagogue; and 1t is this ever.busy in
