ONO juries do not believe in large
fees for doctors. At a recent trial
in Cincinnati OF a suit brought to re-
cover a doctors bill the jury cut the
claim down from so, 900 to 800.
Considering that the bill was for 597
visits the verdict cannotibe regarded
as heavy one; but good many will
agree with the jury that the bill was
excessive.

The San Francisco Chronicle gives

few days ago with his father from Gold
Hill to San Francisco:

overland train. An old lady who had
taken a fancy to the boy gave him some
patent pills in order 10 cure a cold. 1t
appears that she gave him some no.
moepathic pills 10 allopathic doses. As
a result the boy was soon stricken
down with aconite poisoning. At a
private hospital in Oakland everything
was done for the lad in the power OF
the physicians, but it was OF no use,
for he died from the effect of the poison.
A dispatch had been sent to Mrs. Cor
ham at Gold Hill, Nevada, informing
her OF the dangerous illness Of her little
son. She hurried to Oakland, arriving
in time to see her boy breathe his last.
Young Gorham was a general favorite
with those who knew him in Gold Hill.
His parents are completely Frustrated

Americans have it all their own way.
The Polish families allude to the OUR

places are filled by Americans. Queen
Marguerite in speaking English chooses
American expressions. 1t is said that
a son OF the Duke OF Aosta has fallen
in love with an American convent bred

RegOnED.

Last Sunday, says tie Virginia
Chronicle, a couple Of young sports got
to shaking dice in one oi orr popular
saloons. After one Of them had lost
all the change he had with him. he
pulled off his coat and put it up against
that OF the other; his vest went next
and then his hat. BY this time a large
crowd had gathered and the proceed
ings caused much merriment. Having
wagered and lost his coat, vest and
hat, he proceeded TO take off his shoes
and placed them on the bar, and ban
tered his opponent to do likewise. The
shoes were put up, the dice rolled, and
the unlucky one was minus a pair OF
shoes. However, this did not discour-
age him, for he threw his suspenders
over his shoulders and off came his
pants, and with the shake OF the dice
they passed to the possession OF the
fortunate sport.
The now thoroughly Disguised gam
bier left the saloon and started down
the street in his stocking feet and un-
derclothing, the jeers and laughs Of a
large crowd being hurled at him on his
journey.
He appeared on the streets later in
the day, wearing an old pair OF over
alls with legs cut off half way between
the ankle and knees and SO full Of holes
that the remaining cloth was not suffi-
cient to maka patches. On his head
was a white SLOUGH hat without a
crown. and his feet incased in a pair
Of brogans considerably the worse for
wear.
1t is needless to add that the "boys"
had considerable sport out OF the mat
ter, and that some Of them became
quite happy" before the day was

Bcats Pdison's wonders.

Aninvention altogether too universal
has been patented in this country and
abroad by Donald Murray. His patent
beats Edison's wonders all to fits. The
invention is nothing less than a type
writer, a typesetting machine, such as
the Linotype, and a piano all rolled
into one, and operated over a telegraph
wire from a single keyboard. When
in operation there will be nothing left
to do in life but to 20 to bed and wake
up for a square meal occasionally, pos
sibly also supplied by telegraph. Mr..
Murray SAYS his idea is the perfection
OF simplicity. He has a transmitting
instrument, which sends a message
combination OF five short positive and
negative currents. At the receiving
station he has an interpreting instru-
ment, which is operated by the posi-
tive and negative currents. A lever is
released and the electrical contact en-
ergizes an electro-magnet. This oper-
ates a particular key, according to the
combination OF currents. There are
thirty-two transmitting elements and
the same number OF interpreting ele-
ments, and with a shift-key device, a
typewriter and a battery, all work har-
m%oniously. A correspondent may thus
do his OWL typewriting at a distance
or put his correspondence into typefor
the press. This is a most wonderful
age.

rrann Stewart. Prophecy.

Judge Goodwin, in his recollections

in his sketch Of Prof. Frank Stewart,
the eminent g~eologist so well known
throughout Nevada:
Away back in the fifties he re.
ceiyed in California the title Of earth
quake Stewart" because he used to
lecture through California and explain
to his audiences that the earthquakes
which prevailed there were due, not to
internal connections, but to the dis
turbances in the atmosphere and cleo
trical currents, and that they would
in great measure be equalized by the
stretching Of iron rails and telegraph
wires across the continent; that with
those things provided the intensity OF
the tremblors on the Pacific Coast
would grow weaker and weaker, but
that the electrical storms in the Mis-
souri, and Mississippi valleys would be
greatly increased in power and disas-
ter. His words seem now like pro-
phecy.'
