POOR DOC.

Mrs. W. II. Dillingham; Declared In
sane Yesterday.
Mrs. W. III. Dillingham;, queer old
lady who is generally known as DR..
Dillingham;, and who had special fond
ness for reporters, was examined for in
sonity before Judge Mckinley yesterday
and committed to the asylum at Ag-
news.
The examination was quite long
one, and number Of witnesses testified
to the eccentricity of the woman. She
left her husbands home several months
ago, aud has been attempting to prac-

disease. She has been seen on the
streets at all hours of the night, and
lately has threatened to kill her daugh-
ter, pretty young widow, and Charley
Alexander, with whom she has been
going.
Sne alleged that she had heard things
detrimental to him and did not want her
daughter to go with him, and that that
was why che had threatened them.
A Mrs. Heffner who keeps the New
Dennison on Main street, testified that
she was the one who told Mrs. Dillng-
ham that Alexander had been going
with another woman who had lived at
her house.
But the strangest part OF the testi-
mony was furnished by Mrs. Dilling-
ham herself. She claimed to be spir-
ituaist, and said she had thrown her
daughter in a trance and talked with
the spirits OF the murdered saloonk keeper
George Miller and Joe Dye, who was
killed in this city come time ago. She
also said that George Miles, before his
trial, talked with Miller through her
daughter, but could not tell who mur-
dered him, because he was intoxicated
at the time he was killed.
After number of witnesses had been
examined, Mrs. Dillingham; talking q
blue streak all the time, che was COM
njtted as stated

AN Associated Press dispatch tells US
that San Francisco evening paper an
nounces as if it were Authorized to do
30 that Governor has concluded to NOM
mate Irwin Q. Stump to the vacancy in
the United States senate. We are also
assured that the nomination of Mr..
Stump will be officially announced to-
day. If this news is correct it ends a
very perplexing controversy which had
given rise to much acrimonious and ex-
traordinary discussion and guess-work.
Mr.. Stump was the chairman of the Re-
publican state central committee. and ia

dieorganization OF labor and demoraliza.
tion of great productive industries?
1t is q question as to whether any
large portion OF our people are socialists.
Certainly very few of them are snarch-
lists. But there is growing in this nd
nearly every other country feeling that
the state should care for those who,
without any fault OF their own, are rem
dered helpless. 1t is generally felt that
as respects the sble.boded portion of
the population, the authorities should
provide some means OF earning liveli-
hood when large masses OF the people
are unable to obtain employment.
Look, for instance. at the instant
paralysis which has overtsken the silver
and lead mining industries of the United
States over regions go vast that the six
New England states could be lost in
them. The telegraph has advised us OF
the suspension Of silver mine after silver
mine, and of the collapse of whole COM
munities. What are these people to do +?
What is to take the place of the old
means OF earning livelihood? Who is
to succor whole commonwealths when,
by well managed intrigues their only
means of earning livelihood has been
taken away from them?
Take, for instance, the way we find
things in the country trsversed by the
Santa Fe aud Atlantic and Pacific rail-
way in Arizona and New Mexico, and
the ramifications of the latter towards
Nevada: Everywhere along these roads
are strung carload upon carload of silver
ore, most OF it quite rich. The quest
tion with the railway people is what to
do with this ore. All the smelters and
reduction works have been shut down.
When they will resume no one can tell.
We are thus presented with the pecu-
liar spectacle OF rich country allowing
one OF its great and distinctive indus
tries to be shut down at the dictation OF
the cabal VINO direct the operations of
the East India mint. The special ses.
sion of congress will remedy that.
This same body ought also to seri-
ously consider whether it would not be
wise to put the United States into con.
dition to confront any nation of the
earth on sea or land. This would have
two good effects. 1t would add to the
national prestige, and at the same time
it would enable the government to re.
lisve hundreds of thousands of deserv-
ing men. 1t is great thing to show
our ability to reduce our national debt.
We have already reduced it from over
three te less than one thousand millions
of dollars. When we owed three thous-
and millions OF dollars our population
was fifty million souls, or we owed $50
per capita. Now our debt is one thous.
and millions of dollars and our popuia-
tion ia seventy millions of souls or, in
other words, we owe a trifle over $14
per capita.
Why not spend five or six hundred
million dollars on Notifications, Great
ing harbors, building navg, reclaiming
arid land and in other patriotic pur.
poses? The credit of no nation stands
so high as that OF the United States.
Why not increase our debt, make money
plenty and allow our people to breathe
easier? Common sense and patriotism
would seem to call for such q programme.

Abarta's Spanish restaurant at IL
O'Clock, yesterday, by Justice Bartholo-

1t is possible to find humorous Sida

returned at once, W til interest. whenever
il Is called for, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
The SubterfugeS to which many OF
these people resort in order to get their
money show that the comedy season
is still on, only il has been transferred
from the theaters TO the banks. Finan-
cial disturbances have begotten an
epidemic Of falsehO0d SO general that
the cashier must fancy the spirit of
BeelZebub himself to be abroad.
The number of people whose rents are
FALLING due, who have to meet notes and
mortgages. who have chances to buy out
saloons and groceries for just couple
of dollars less than the amount OF their
deposits. who have bought their tickets
for Europe and whose steamship will
sail tomorrow. who h We conSlgnments
OF goods on which payment must be
made. who have husbands and wives
and children to bury, is astonishing.
In one case the woman who wanted to
bury her husband took him to the bank
with her-but perhaps she wanted to
bury him just the same. Another wom-
an claimed her full deposit because
she wished to bury her child. Ii was
known that she never had one and was
unmarried, but she bawleG over it as

IN SYMPATHY.
F0R THOSE WHO AR SICK AVID SILL
SUFFERING.

A Good Reason Why Patients
. y no Have Been Cured Are
g Willing to Make Statements
for Publication.
I The public frequently. with good rea-
son. ask why patients who have been
seured by Doctors Copeland and Hunt
are willing to make statements for pub
. Hca.loD. 1t Is certain that many OF
them shrink from publicity. Their
motive can be explained in the one word
sympathy -sympathy tor those who
are sick and who are still suffering.
NO one can relate stories of adventure
ike the heroes themselves. and no one
can talk for the sick like those who
! nave suffered. The statements that
lave been published in these columns
have been made by people in all walks
of life.
Business men, professional men. me-
chanicS, etc, nave contributed their ev-
ldenee. Few of them have been accus-
toned to making statements or writing
Tor the public press, but they have
talked about that with which they We're
familiar. They have related simple
and straightforward story, and thus
they have often been eloquent. The
above ideas were suggested by reply
gwen to the writer by Mrs. Robert Me
Clary, In answer to question regard

l93 Morton street, this city. We give
