The precious metal has been en-
ployed both externally and internally,
IN the metallic state, IN solution and
BY sympathy, for great variety Of
the ills that flesh il heir to, for over 2,
900 years. The train Of thought
which led the ancients to employ this
highly priced material can be well
told in the quaint language Of the
distinguished Dutch physician and
chemist Hermann Boerhaave; writing
about 1925, he says: THE alchemist
win have this metal contain / know
not what radical balm Of life capable
Of restoring health and continuing it
to the longest period.
what led the early physicians to
imagine such wonderful virtnre in gold
was that they perceived certain quail
ties therein which they fancied must
be conveyed thereby onto the body;
gold, for instance, is not capable Of be-
ing destroyed; hence they concluded it
must be very proper to preserve ami
NAL substances and save them from
putrefaction, which is method Of
reasoning very much like that Of some
fanciful physicians who sought for an
remedy in the blood Of an

The Tragic Fate Of Miss Pleasant M'Carty
The tragic tale Of the sudden death
Of Miss Pleasant M Carty, near Davis,
ON the West Virginia Central Railroad,
still continues to create great interest.
The many versions Of the sad affair
seem to make statement necessary.
There Is cloud Of mystery overhang-
ing the matter that in all probability
the eye Of suspicion will never be able
to penetrate.
Three years ago Miss Pleasant, who
was IN her Goth year at the time Of her
death, was married to 4 young man by
the name Of Edward Bachtel, who was
living in MartinsBnrg at the time, and
was employed On the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Dis brakeman, and is
now boating on the Chesapeake and
Ohio, canal. TIL eir union ended soon,
although there was no legal dissolu-
ton of their marriage. She resumed
her maiden name and kept her home
with her parents during the remainder
of her short life.
Sh 8 visited neighbours house at
four o'clock and on her return after
playing piece on the organ she sug-
gested that her mother would go to
meet her father as it was about time
for him to come in from work. When
they reached home they found no one
at the house but Mr.. Manning, the
wife's father. Said Pleasant had gone
running out the tram road.
Presently the two men called at the
house. Theythad not seen Pleasant,
but on being told the direction she
took, they said they had heard some
one hello as if ia distress and they.
would go to the place ard see.
BY this time it was quite dark, and
one Of the young men returned and
said they had found her lying across
the tram road, where they hadrheard
the halloing, and that she was very
sick. The other man stayed with her
until help arrived She was assisted
home, and some home remedies .ad-
ministerly which afforded relief BY
mornings she was much better, came
down stairs without help was lying on
the lounge seeming to rest easy. when
suddenly, about the middle Of the day,
she wastaken worse. sank rapidly ,andin
fewmoments was dead. II was found
after death that the stomach contained
poison.
What secret sorrow preyedI upon the
mind of this young woman dying in
the early bloom Of life, win probably
remain mystery That she took her
own life there can scarcely be a aoubt,
Judging from the, circumstances de-
'talled above.

About the 18th very warm wave

about the 9th to 18th, and we may
therefore expect during this period u
phenomenally high temperature and d

About the windingup Of the period,
18th to 23d, blasts Of polar air will adj
monish us Of the oncoming autumn and
the need Of wise and timely prepara-
tions for Hard winter. Some very
cool weather will attend and follow the
disturbances about this time. Reac-

The Case of Geo. Lewis.

The case of George Lewis, sent
enced to the State Prison for life fol
the killing of an Italian in Elko,
came up before the Board of Pard-
ons yesterday.
The circumstances of the case are
that one night Lewis was passing q
saloon in Elko, when an Italian
came out ana began to abuse him IL
the vilest language, at the same time
flourishing a knife
Lewis avoided a quarrel, when
the Italian told Lewis that his moth
er vas a prostitute, and that his
sister was the Legitimate daughter
of harlot.
This was the substance of the
language used by him, toned down
as much as possible under the cir
cumstances. Other epithets were
used by him which it is impossible to
print.
1t was under this terrible provoca-
ton. that man who had always held
a coed name in the community, who
had been lawabiding and industrious,
who had always been gentleman OF
refinement, who was weak physic-
aliy, was unable to restrain himself,
and rebuked the terrible epithets
applied to his mother and sister, by
shooting the man who was trying to
provoke a qurrel with him. These
epithets were merely applied to ex-
cite and madden him into quarrel.
His mother and sister were above
reproach.
Not one man in ten, were he eyer
so law abiding, could have controlled
his temper or his actions under this
terrible provocation.
Yet the Board refused 70 pardon
this man v no is suffering from pull
monary trouble contracted in prison
and whose life VIII ID ortened by
his disease. L seems an outrage %
humanity to keep Lewis any longer
in confinement. Yet the Board re-
fused his pardon.

THE 4TH At MARKLEyILLE.
The Various Umpires Play for
Safety.

Safety.
They had a great time on the
Fourth at Markleville. Everybody
was there to see the tug-of-war, the
baseball match and the races.
The Scandinavian and the German
teams contested for keg of beer.
One side was pulled over the line
a spell, and then the other was
pulled back a while.
After the tug the umpire was taken
aside by the German team, and a
bung starter shook in front OF his
nose. Then the Scandinavian team
took him out in the sagebrush few
minutes and had talk with him.
He then came back and announced
that the. tug was a draw.
All hands cheered and the stake
was divided, each team drinking
from opposite ends of the keg. The
Germans got more out than their
opponants.
Then came the baseball match.
The Markleville nine made six runs
and the Alplnes seven or five, it was
hard to tell which, and the respective
clubs took the umpire If one side IN
a cool, quiet place, and after reading
him the latest rules that had reached
Marklevllle those OF 1S63--they
impressed on HIM the necessity Of
fair decision and no monkeying with
