AN uNusuAL rRocEEnINe.


 It is seldom that the official acts of the judiciary come within the sphere of a newspapaper, to either condemn or comment the course of a presiding judge, but where a ease has been given somewhat ot notoriety in general discussion among all classes of people by tho action of judge in the matter, in justice to the public as it's servant, departure from the usual path of Journalism is taken in this one in stance, in presenting to the commu- nlty the facts of a recent case, over which Judge Rouse presided. We do not mean to criticise this gentle man for his lack of legal knowledge CT that he exercised whatever any bias or feeling in his course, but the proceeding was of such an unusual character, and varying also from any custom heretofore estab- lished in practice in this district, that We give it to the public for the good It may do them as a legal guide and the benefit they may like wise derive from it. without, in any manner, questioning the ability of him who 50 ordered it of record. The case we refer to is that of Tooker versus The Virginia Mining Company, and, briefly stated, the facts, which are of record, show that the plaintiff sued to secure wages from the defendant. The case was tried, the court instructed the jury, and the jury retired to consider upon verdict. After the jury had been out for an hour and half, the judge, on his own mo ton, directed that the jury be brought into court. When the jury entered the court room, member of the jury stated that they had not. as yet, agreed upon verdict. The judge then stated that he would give another instruction, which would assist them in arriving at a verdict, and the instruction was to the effect that there was no proof. from the evidence. that Tooker had been engaged to work for the min ing company, by the present super intendSnt, and in the absence of any such evidepce, the jury must bring in a verdict for the defendant. The jury then retired and in few mo- ments brought in verdict for the l company.
 Of course, to the common people, and particularly those whose daily l life is such that but a meagre | amount of legal information is gained through general channels only, the belief has prevailed among l them that while jury is consider ing a case after being out but an hour and half, they would be per mitted to continue longer. or for a time, and particularly so in the absence of any instructions from the presiding judge as to what their verdict should be in either eveSt. Among the members of the bar, also, We learn, has this likewise been the custom in all cases hereto fore, of similar nature.
 This act of the judge may come within the limits of the law, but at the same time it is an unusual pro ceeding in this jurisdiction, but it will serve to litigants and the peo- pie generally, new version of legal logic, and also what they may be to do, whether as jurymen or interested parties. Whether his is sustained or not by men versed in legal knowledge, we do not know, and only mention the case as showing what tangled mesh the law is as viewed from a and common stand point.

AN EXCEPTION.

Attached to the history of gold
 and silver mining, there is not a
 camp in the west, however rich it
 may have been at one time or anoth-
 CT, but what has not "petered out"
 at some time, with one exception, and that is the Rich Hill district. Since the days of '62, when Weaver
 and his small party of men entered
 the gulch, which now bears his name, and took from the summit of Rich Hill one-half a million of dollars in short time thereafter, this same section has continued to produce an alarmingly large amount of gold annually, up to the present time. This district has been the most prolific mining section to exist on the coast in the character of its mineral yield, and while other camps have come and gone it has continued to be the source from where a steady stream of the yellow metal has flown. To-day reports come in with the same regularity as ever, over the finding of large mug gets and finer gold, until it seems as if these fields were simply in exhaustible. In late years but a comparatively small amount of the product of this section has reached Prescott, which probably accounts for this seeming disinterested feel ing over the real wealth which still makes this old-time camp one of the leaders in its output of wealth, and one also which should be the means of restoring confidence to the community generally in the permanency of its claims as a min eral country.

WAsnSaroN, August S.-The Pre- sidents message was sent to Con gress today. He attributes the present financial depression in the east and the west to nothing else than the Sherman law, and recommends its unconditional re peal.
 He promises that the tariff shall receive special attention as soon as the silver question is settled. The message produced a shock to the silver members, and some emphatic language wss used by the advocates of the white metal toward the President. after the message was read. The extra session will prove the most eventful in the history Of the nation, and stormy times are predicted. Silver has again dropped in conSeQuence.

TANNING ELEPHANTS.
NOVEL METHOD OF CAPTURING THE ANIMALS
IN IND0-CHINA.
DR.. R9sset Describes Hunt in Which BE Took
Part-Entansling he Feet Of the Game in Loops
Dragged Along the 6round-Re-
ducing the Game to DEBILITY.

DR.. c. W. Rosset, the traveller and
explorer, who is well known for his con-
tributions TO ethnography,is now In New
York. lie was long in the service OF Gen.
Gordon in the Egyptian Soudan, and Of
late years he has been exploring in the
virgin field between AMMAN and the
great Mekong River, where he has
brought to light four tribes whose exist
ence was barely known before he made
them study, DR.. Rosset contributes
to the Sun this account Of the wild ele-
plant catching as practiced by one Of
these tribes In lndo-China:
The Benongs live about midway be-
tween the Mekong River and the Anna
mite coast in mountainous, wooded re-
gions. They hunt the elephant to OBJ
tain ivory and also to capture and tame
the young animals. A great deal has
been written about elephant hunting,
bat nothing, believe, about the method
OF the Benongs, among whom l was the
first European TO live for any consider
able time. On March 30, 1891, was in
the Benong village of Pumpia, making
chronological collections and treating
many sick natives. About that time a

venture Of this sort right after the hunt
have described.
II wanted 20 show the Cambodians
what q European hunter can do, and
therefore requested the mandarin TO al
low me to try a shot at the wild herd,
which meantime had retired into the
forest. Only after my repeated assur-
ances that l should not hold him re-
sponsble for the consequences, the man
DARN gave his consent. | took my rifle
aud some ammunition, got ready for fir
ing, and ordered my Csmbodian servant
to follow me al distance with my re-
serve double barrel rifle. Entering the
forest, I saw three elephants standing
in front Of ME. | looked round for my
servant, but he was nowhere TO be seen.
A full-grown female elephant, followed
by young one, rushed toward me with
uplifted trunk and fierce trumpetlngs,
| had DO time to spare to take good aim,
and so fred into the open mouth OF the
beast. The tremendous recoil OF my
gun threw ne 10 the ground, and at the
same time / heard my servant fire twice.
81 quickly raised myself, but was I'M
able on account OF the smoke OF my gun
to see the elephant. Then | suddenly
felt something Craze my face, and was
hurled distance OF several yards, and
lost consciousness. When l recovered
the Cant odisnS stood around me. They
had thought that l was dead. My
clothes were sCrinkled with blood, and
a pain ia my upper jaw convinced me
that there was something wrong. /
found that several teeth had been
knocked out. The elephant had
knocked them out with her trunk, and
had disappeared. Three balls had not
killed her. A deadly wound can only be
given when The ball enters the temple
or the eye.
"As the elephant has keen scent and
hearing, q European needs long expe-
rience before he can hunt the animal
successfully. The native, who creeps
noiselessly In his Annamite costume,
has. in spite Of inferior weapons, bet
ter chance OF success than a European
with his creaking boots and breech-
loader. The Benongs kill elephants
with poisoned arrows which, although
they cannot penetrate the thick skin,
may infict a deadly wound In softer
parts, such as the trunk. IN such
places the poisonous substance, prepared
from extracts OF herbs, acts so violently
that the animal often dies within ten
minutes.

ceeded. The right hind leg OF the
youngster was caught. The line was
tightly held by both the capturer and
the guide. The young elephant eit his
danger and tried TO fee. While the
greater part Of the men tried to Keep
the herd in check, the rest devoted
themselves to completely securing the
captured beast. The fettered captive,
followed by the lucky capturer on his
elephant, plunged to the right and left.
Then IL was hunted about In a circle
until it broke down quite exhausted.
The servants surrounded it, Jumped to
the ground. and cautiously creeping
from underneath their animals, fettered
with hide throngs attached to their cap
turing implements the legs OF the
broken-down creature, and made the
thongs fast TO the trunk OF the trees,
so that the captive could no longer
bulge.
"rhe animal was kept in that posi-
ton for several days. The first day II
had nothing 20 eat or drink. The second
day it received some water. On the
third day few morsels OF food were
given to it, and it began to become
docile. Then 1t allowed itself to be led
by its tame companions, which tried 10
console 1t by caressing 1t with their
trunks. On the eighth day OF its cap
tivity the youngster was so far tanned
that any one could approach IT,
From this description IL might ap
pear that the elephant OF 1ndo-China is
