AMERICAN CHOLERA.

From Daily Reveille, WhatcOm, Wash.
IT. C. Burnett. the democratic candi-
date for sheriff, was taken violently ill at
Clearbrook. He had all the symptoms OF
Asiatic cholera, and for an hour or two it
was feared he would die. They finally
gave him dose of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and DiarrhGa Remedy, which
revived him until physician arrived "
That is precisely what the manufactu-
rers of that medicine recommend for chOl-
era. Send for a physician but give their
medicine until a physician arrives. If
cholera becomes prevalent in this country
next summer this preparation will be in
great demand because it can always be
depended upon. For sale by f. Kalteyer

STILL UNKNOWN.
THE WOMAN SUICIDE OE wEDNEs-
DAY STILL UNIDENTIFIED.
The Inquest States That She Died From
the Effects Of Oxalic Acid.
Various Theories.

The inquest held by DIR. Weldon
yesterday upon the unknown woman
in black who was found dead on a grave
on Wednesday afternoon in Rosedale
cemetery, brought out only one fact. 1t
was thought on Thursday that she had
committed suicide by means of an al
kaloid, but it was not until yesterday
morning that a chemical analysis deter
mined that the poison was oxalic acid.
After hearing the evidence which was at
the command of the coroner, the jury
rendered verdict that the unknown
woman had taken oxalic acid with sui
cidal intent.
Two of the large number of visitors
that called at the undertakers' yesterday
were almost positive that the dead wom-
an was Mrs. Chamberlain, whose hus-
band, railroad engineer, died of con-
sumption at Sacramento.
One of them said that if his surmise
was correct, she could easily be identi-
fed by Mrs. David w. Thomas, the wife
of Southern Pacific company engineer,
who had known her formerly. The
other man, who resides little way out
OF the city, stated that he had at home
tintype of Mrs. chamberlain, which
he would bring into town to compare
with the features of the deceased.
Mr.. Chase, the undertaken, after re-
ceiving this information, Immediately
telegraphed to Mrs. Thomas at Azusa,
requesting her to come to town for the
purpose OF settling the 0oubt of the de-
ceased's identity.
Should the body not prove to be that
of Mrs. Chamberlain, Mr.. Chase will
have it buried in Rosedale cemetery.

Jury.

Two 1O-Year-old Boys Tried BY .
Jury.
1t is not often that children in knick-
erbockers and just about the size of Q
peanut, earn the questionable distinc-
ton of being tried by jury of twelve
sedate men, but compile of little fellows
yesterday kept Justice Owens and a
dozen American citizens busy for the
better part of eight hours. listening to
the story of their infsntile misdeeds.
Although charged only with petty lar
ceny, the acts laid at their door virtually
constituted burglary.
Fred Brown and Brainerd Honeywell,
the two accused urchins, were charged
with having stolen $50 in gold from the
room of d. Burns, who lives on Vine
street, on the 4th inst.
Fred is pretty little quadroon boy,
who appeared apprehensive and sad,
although it is said that this was not his
coup d'essai, but his white partner,
Brainerd, less than three feet high,
showed more confidence and stood up
unconcerned when Deputy District At
torney Diehl pointed him out to the
jury.
The complaining witness testified to
finding the fly net OF his window torn,
and missing $50 from underneath his
mattress. He had seen the defendants
early In the afternoon in his corral
watering mule and COW. He had a
conversation with the white boy next
day which gave him suspicious, and
these he impaired to the police.
Detectives Auble and Benson took
charge of the case. They intercepted the
boys, and by judicious pumping" soon
learned the needed particulars. Each
boy accused the other. Brainerd showed
Mr.. Auble where $8 and newly pur-
chased nickel watch we're hidden. Later
both accused gave complete descrip-
tion of all they had purchased with the
stolen money. By this means over $40
was recovered that had been spent on
the watch and goat, with its harness
and carriage. 1t was elected that the col
ored boy made those purchases.
Master Brsinerd Honeywell, an un-
usually sharp lad, IL years old, when on
the street said that he knew moth
ing of the larceny. Fred Brown
had shown him some money, but
claimed that his old granny" had given
it to him. The cross examination did
not materially alter his testimony. The
parents OF this defendant made an effort
to establish an alibi for him.
Fred Brown, the other boy, now told
his story, which was to the effect that
Brainerd had jumped into the room and
taken the money, at first denying that
he had found anything. The purchase
of the goat and watch was made, so he
said, with the money supplied him by
young Honeywell, who also made a
present of S. to Browns sister. On the
following day Brainerd admitted to his
partner that he had stolen the money at
Burns's.
After short arguments by counsel and
lengthy instructions by the court the
case went to the jury at O'Clock. 1t
was past s O'Clock before they could
agree and then it was found that the
judge had gone to supper. When they
came into court at s :45 it was with a
verdict of not guilty. The Judge was
taken by surprise at this extraordinary
action and hurriedly dismissed the jury.
