FROsTBURG, Md, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1898.

You may easily imagine the surprise
evinced by the people on board on dis.
covering that the thief was the man for
whom each and every one of them en-.
tertained such high regard.
At the expiration of three days from
the date of Mays detection we landed
in Melbourne, and of course I handed
him over to the police, but as no one
cared to remain in the town for the
purpose of prosecuting him he was
summarily dealt with. The presiding
magistrate sentenced him to six months
imprisonment with hard labor. Chi.

The Worlds Most Usefu, River,

The Nile is probably the most useful
river in the world. 1t has turned an
arid wilderness into the richest land in
the world. 1t has provided at the same
time an admirable commercial high
way, and made easy the transportation
of building materials. The ancient
Egyptians were thus enabled to utilize
the granite of Assuan for the splendid
structures of hundred gated 1hebes
and of Memphis, and even for
those of Tunis, on the Mediterranean
coast. At time when the people of
the British Isles were clad in the skins
of wild beasts, and offered human sac
rifces upon the stone altars of the
Druids, Egypt was the center of a rich
and refined civilization. Most of this
development of Egypt was due to the
Nile, which not only watered and ferti-
lized the soil annually, but was and is
one of the greatest and best natural
highways in the world. From the be.
ginning of winter to the end of spring
that is, while the Nile is navigable
the north wind blows steadily up
stream with sufficient force to drive
sailing boats against the current at u
fair pace; while, on the other hand, the
current is strong enough to carry boat
without sails down against the wind,
except when it blows gale. That IS
why ancient Egypt did not need steam
power nor electric motors for the i'm.
mense commerce that covered the Nile,
nor for the barges carrying building
material for hundreds and hundreds OF
miles. =

Why He Went Insane.

I had just taken my seat in the car
when an elderly gentleman entered,
closely followed by young man of de-
cidedly fashionable aspect. They Sc
cured seats near mine and were soon
absorbed in their newspapers, says a
writer in the Chicago News.
Finally the elder lowered his paper
and said: "By the way, Frank, what
has become of Singleton? I haven't
seen him for some time"
"He was adjudged insane and is now
in any asylum" said Frank.
"Can that be possible9 Why, what
was the cause?"
"Oh, he was crank, and his mind
was continually agitated in his endeav-
ors to start some new society fad. When
Mrs. B gave her first dove dinner
his actions and efforts to counterbalance
it by some new wrinkle of his own
were source of great amusement to all
the fellows. He finally dropped that,
and everything went smoothly with
him until Miss Richly gave pink tea.
Singleton's wheel again started to re-
volve and he issued invitations to all
the fellows to attend white breakfast.

Kettle Belly Brown Lost His Share of the
Rioh Property.

niOn HTopoELys
Kettle Belly Brown was we'll
character of Virginia City, New, says
the Spokane Enterprise. Erstwhile
Comstockers who have wandered forth
into other regions of this fair land very
frequently develop into capable liars,
and if Kettle Belly is responsible for
the biography of himself published in
this article he is unquestionably as
gifted as any of his compatriots who
have gone before him.
The article states that Mackay, Fair.
Sharon and Jones staked Brown with
grub to go on prospecting tour; that
he discovered the celebrated California
mine of this place on the trip, and that
they all became equal partners in the
mine, which was valued at So, 900, 900
at that time. This article explains how
Brown lost his interest in the mine as
follows:
Brown was always sport; SO were
his partners. One evening in 1874 he
and his four partners met in room in
the International Hotel in Virginia
City. One of the party suggested a
game of draw That settled it. Draw
had to come, and it came pretty swift.
as the sequel will show.
"At first the stakes were not large
81 ante and 800 limit-but as the
game progressed the ante was raised to
$40 and the limit knocked out of sight.
Presently Mr.. Brown picked up three
jacks. He raised the ante 81, 900. Jim
Fair passed out so did Mr.. Jones.
Mackay saw the raise on two pair.
Sharon covered the raise on q pair of
kings and then they drew cards. Brown
picked up his two draw-cards and bet
$1,000. Mackay raised it $1O,0 900 and
Sharon made it good. Brown then
came back at them, and saw.:,the raise,
and elevated the pot to the extent OF
his share in the California mine. In a
voice that was tremulous with excite
ment, Mackay announced that he would
see it.. Sharon, cool as an iceberg,
simply said, I'm thar
flour jacks, said Brown.
sharon looked inquiringly at Mac.
kay. That beats me, said the latter
throwing down three queens and pair
of eights.
~ have four kings said Sharon
and I guess I own three.fifths of the
California
After this Brown and Mackay drew
out of the game, but Sharon, Jones and
Fair continued to play until daybreak'
just as the golden haze of approaching
day came over the mountain peaks
Sharon became sole owner of the mine
on hand. Mackay, Fair and Jones
afterwards became part owners of the
mine by purchase from Sharon, but
Brown was never in it again."

The Payson Globe Pays Its Respects to
the Tribune.
The Salt Lake Tribune has begun a cru
sade against ''nefarious organization
formed to down Catholicism, - and
starts out in its last Sundays issue with
a scarehead expose of their ''dark do
ings.' Some artist, drawing upon his
well-6lled pigment pots, paints deeply
dark picture with bright red trimmings
supposed to embody the essential mis-
deeds of this band of miScreants. Con-
corning this the Tribune INDUCES in an
editorial spasm of righteous horror over
1.-THE idea that men will take a solemn
oath that they will pursue their fellow
citizens with such vindictive ferocity as
they are obliged to do in this club, for no
reason except difference of religious
belief, - which might, on the whole, be a
trifie amusing if it did not awaken other
sentiments. The Tribune might do some
thing in the way OF enlightening the
and why, after its very pronounced
course for the last thirty years, it has
suddenly found out that ''erecting q
religious test against holding office'
is "violation of the laws, -
and that these things are so s'utterly re-
pugnant to the spirit of the age and to
American liberty.'' Consistency does
not seem to be any part of the Tribune S
code. We know nothing of the merits of
the case, but the fact that the whole story
bears evidence of being related by per-
son actuated not only by personal in
terest but by malice, and that the princi-
pal facts are gathered from a man who
took an oath for the express purpose OF
breaking it, does not add credibility to

DEATH OF H.W. BARTELS.
Heart Failure, Induced by Morphine
the Cause.
The Drug Taken to Induce sIeep-A Note
Asking His Wife to
Call Him.

Herman w. Bartels. the well known
advertising solicitor, who for some weeks
past has been employed on the Tribune,
died yesterday morning from heart fail
ure, brought on by morphine taken for
the purpose of causing sleep.
The deceased had been drinking heavily
for some time, and on Friday night he
was out dissipating. He appeared at the
Tribune Office yesterday morning, how
ever, and after attending to some duties
there, went down town and began drink
ing again. He appeared to be somewhat
nervous, and went home with the inten-
ton of sleeping. When he reached his
residence, 21S East Second South, he
found his wife absent, and presu-
mably took dose of morphine for the
purpose OF inducing sleep. At IL
O'Clock Mrs. Bartels returned and
on going to her husbands room found
him seated at his desk and acting
strangely. She assisted him to lounge
and he at once became unconscious and
soon expired.
DR.. Fisher was at once summoned, but
the man was beyond human aid when he
arrived.
The theory that Bartels simply in
tended to take nap and then return to
his work is strengthened by the following
note. which was found on his desk:
"I am going to sleep. Wake me up at 4
o'clock. HERMAN"
Coroner Taylor was notified, and the
body was removed to Sleeves undertake
ing establishment, where an inquest was
held in the afternoon, @. NJ. Hammond,
J. G. WINS and w. FL. Bynon being sworn
as jurors. DR.. Fisher testified that from
the appearance of the body, he was sat-
isfied that death resulted from heart fail
ure. The other witnesses were F. l..
Bayly, druggist, H. G. Browniee of
THE HERALD, r. II. McKaig and II. G.
McDonough, their testimony being in &C
cordance with the facts above stated.
The following verdict was returned:
1.-THE said jurors on their oath do say,
from the evidence presented, that the
said Herman W. Bartels came to his
death from heart failure, caused by the
use of morphine taken to produce Sleep"
Mr.. Bartels was "a years of age, and an
Englishman by birth. He had been in
America several years, however, and re-
sided in Chicago, Denver and other
places before coming to Salt Lake. While
in Denver about three years ago, he mar
ried Miss May Woodcock. who survives
him, but SO far as is known
he had no other relatives
| in this country. After coming to Salt
Lake Mr.. Bartels was employed with the
Walker Bros. & Fyler Co. for g time, and
has been engaged in the printing bust
ness. With Mr.. McKaig he established
the Intermountain Advertising Bureau
and Press associa lion, and published the
Saltair programme for this season, He
was very bright man and was quite pop
ular, but was his own enemy. His
finances were in bad shape, and about all
he leaves is a life insurance policy for

PRESIDBNT TRAYNOR HERE,

Amorines Arrives.
OBJECT OF HIS VISIT.
1t Is Not Connected with tho Recent
Exposures.
nIr. TrayDor makes Brief Statement
Concerning the Objects of the Organic
zation-The Tribune Roasted by
the Payson Globe.

Supreme President w. j. II. Traynor
of the now famous "Amorineo society
is in the city, having arrived yesterday.
The recent developments regarding the
organization, however, have nothing to
do with the visit. MIR. Traynor is en-
route to California, where he will insti-
tute several subordinate and a state coun-
Gil. having been sent for that purpose.
Mr.. Traynor corroborates the statement
made by the officers of the local branch in
THE HERALD of Tuesday last, regarding
the political phase OF the order. He
stated last night that the order had no
political significance; that the political
belief OF a man had no bearing on his
qualifications to membership and that
the society is not political in any sense of
the word.
He says, however, that when the OBJ
jects become familiar, that every citizen
who has the future of America at heart
will join, and his statement is given ''for
what it is worth. -
He leaves tonight for San Francisco.
