Work Ressal m ed.

The Virginia Chronicle says: The
Con. Virginia mine, was opened up
today and operations began in it, after
being close down for several months.
This is the inception of the work of 10
eating and developing the body of ore
claimed to exist on the 1000 level of
the mine by James G.. Rule.
The force of men under him at pres
ent consists of three engineers three
fire men and twelve shaft men. When
the timbers of the shaft and drifts
have been rehabilitated and the task
of taking out dirt begun, caremen will
be added to the list.
The ground where the ore is to be
looked for is in the southeasterly di-
rection from this Con. Virginia shaft,
toward the Best & Belcher possessions
and the particular point of the explor-
alton is 40 feet below the 1000 level
of the latter mine. According to Rule
he discovered the ore body just about
the time he fell out with his employ
ers, while working the mine under
the Jones lease. He did not make the
discovery known nor uncover the ore
| for that reason.
He left it untouched and worked
away from it, as, likewise, did his
successors, Superintendent Prender-
CAST and Foreman VIM. Harper, who
operated on the same level later, and
who were ignorant of it's existence.
There is much virgin ground at the
point in question and a chance for a
big body of ore.

Wren and Fulton.

A correspondent of the Reno Jour
nal suggests that the Populists and
Republicans make them their respec-
tive candidates. He says /:
| read with much interest some time
since the Wren Fulton controversy
with regard to silver, and the idea has
been suggested to me that a very fine
test of the question of the unanimity
of the people Of the State for free
coinage-better even than non-parti-
san resolutions-might be had if the
two parties, the Republican and Pop
ulist, would nominate these two gen.
tlemen as their respective candidates
for Governor. Both may be said to
be typical representatives of their re-
spective political affiliations; Mr.. Full
ton of the Republican and Mr.. Wren
of the Silver party, and by the "eter-
nal fitness of things" would make most
consistent standard bearers.

The Man Who Killed Penrose.

It will be remembered that several
years ago w. J. Penrose, formerly a
newspaper man of Eureka, Nevada,
was shot and killed at Butte, Mon
tana, by persons unknown. On Tues
day last Joseph Mccormick, who
claims to be one of the murderers,
gave himself up to the Lake Crystal
min. J police, stating that he was tired
of eluding the authorities. The
chances are that Mccormick is not a
murderer, but frst-class crank.

Sucide OF c. B. wodIe,gh.

| cAOHl 1il0 lOCn0 LOQo OF OCCODGr
21st we get the following particulars
of the suicide of G. B. Wadleigh,
better known in these parts as cyan. :"
Mr.. Wadleigh had for several years
been a great sufferer from rheuma-
tism. He was man of kind feelings,
generous impulses and always true to
his friends, and we never knew he
had an enemy. Many who knew
'Yank" will regret to learn that he
ended his life in such a shocking
manner:
Yesterday about IL o'clock G. B.
Wadleigh, better known as "Yank, !"
cut his throat with corn knife, in
fiicting one cash six and quarter in
ches in length, and two others of an
inch each, from the effect of which he
died at IL o'clock last night. The
cash six and three quarter inches in
length severed the windpipe and tap
ped the common cortid artery. He
has been ailing with rheumatism for
some time past, and has been accus-
toned to the use of morphine. About
four days ago he took an overdose of
the drug, when DIR. Campbell was
called and succeeded in overcoming
its effect until yesterday, with the re-
suit above stated. He was most de-
termined to end his life, and probably
no reasons could have been expressed
had it not been for DR.. Campbell's
prompt action. After the artery was
ligated, the hemorhage arrested and
the wounds stitched and dressed, the
unfortunate man had few statements
to make, which he did in writing, and
are as follows:
Cali I want to know is how long
will last, considering your judgment?
When is it Doc! | went through hell
last night, and deliver me from anoth-
er?
eff there is a Calvinist Baptist,
where is there one?'
81 said I passed through hell, and
that is enough, and would like to see
Baptist preacher, or one believing
in that faith.
The following note he sent to Ed, the
Chinaman in charge of Dicks res
taurant: ssFriend Ed am sorry
for not being able to pay, my lips are
parched for ice water; please send
small piece. G. b. Wadleigh."
He continued: GAS my time is
short of earth, and certainly repent
and die in my mothers belief.
81 wish thatI was sure to be able to
give full account of this horrible af-
fair"
The doctor then asked: "What
prompted you to do this rash act9'
He answered. 81 said that l was
not on the other side"
He was again asked the same ques-
ton, and answered: 81 said l was
not able to do SO. I had an object,
but couldn't tell you"
G. B. WadIeigh came to this place
from Ely, Nevada, about three years
ago, since which time he has followed
gambling for living. He formerly
lived in Eureka, this State, and has
relatives living in Massachusetts, and
Washington. His age is about 81
years.

Joe Sheiby's Chances.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The Presi
dent and Secretary Gresham are in
favor of the appointment of Gen. Joe
Shelby as Marshal of the Western
District of Missouri. Gresham takes
a personel interest in the matter, for
the reason that two prominent Nilsson.
rams have just been appointedto serve
under him as foreign representatives,
both having served on the Union
side in the war. To counter.
pOise thelselection of Broadhead and
Crittenden, he thinks Gen. Shelby
ought to be made marshal of the
Western district to satisfy the other
side. The president entertains sub
stantially the same view of the matter.
The nomination of Shelby will be
pushed at the next cabinet session by
Gresham, who has made a memoir
andum of the case with a view to
bringing it up at the earliest possible
moment.

WHAT SCIENCE HAS DONE FOR
DEAFNESS.
Transmitting Sound to the Ear by the
Use of Simple Device.

Transmitting Sound to the Ear by the
Use Of a Simple Device.
There is little doubt but what the
treatment of deafness has been revO-
lutiOnized by the invention of the
Sound Discs. The development and
growth of the use of this device is
phenomenal, and is well worthy the
attention it has received in medical
circles. where it has been widely dis
cussed and most heartily approved.
A prominent physician has gone so
far as to estimate that fully three
quarters of all the deafness which has
been relieved in the United States
during the past two years has been by
the aid of this instrument; and he
considers it an easy triumph over this
most distressing affection.
While the idea OF such an instru-
ment is not strictly new, yet the res
toration of such a large number of
desperate and abandoned cases by its
Use has proven to be of vastly more
Importance than was at first supposed.
a recent interview with the inventor
of the instrument. Mr.. H. S. Wales,
who lives in Bridgeport, Conn.,, dis
closes how the idea of such an ingeni-
Gus instrument first occurred to him.
1t was learned that it was first sug-
gested from the fact that most people
who suffer from defective hearing,
hear better in a noise, or on moving
train, which is caused by the increased
vibration of the ear. From this Mr..
Wales said he was confident that he
could be worn with comfort by the
patient, and which would focus the
smaller waves of sound on the drum
head, thus increasing its vibration,
and enabling the patient to hear ordi-
nary conversation and public speak
ing. After many experiments the
final outcome of this happy thought
has been the present device, which
must be an ideal one as it is worn in
the ear out Of sight for months at a
time.

REvERSEDAND REMANDED
Disposition of a Pettis County
Case in Kansas City Court
of Appeals.

Among the decisions handed down
by the Kansas City court Of appeal:
yesterday, was the following:
The divorce case of William a.
Brown against Marian Brown, appel
liant, from Pettis county, which ha'
been hard fought one and which has
attracted no little attention, was re-
versed and remanded by Judge Eli
son, all concuring, with instructions
to render judgment of divorce on ac'
count of the indignities charged in the
plaintiffs petition and without
any order in regard to
the custody Of the children.
The trial court found for the
plain if on two counts in his petition
and the acknowledgement. The lat
ter appealed because certain letters
written by her to the defendant were
admitted in evidence. The opinion
holds that in divorce cases husband
and wife are competent witnesses
against each other, but that they can
not give as testimony communications
made by one to the other.
1t was maintained by the plaintiff
that these letters were not private
communications from the defendant.
as they were sent by the oldest
daughter. The appellate court holds
that they were sealed and delivered
with seals unbroken this made no diff
ference, and furthermore, whatever
doubt there was should have been re-
solved by the Pettis county circuit
court in favor of the inviolability of
the communications. A conversation
between husband and wife might be
accidentally overheard by third party
and vet would be no reason TO justify
its use in court as evidence. So a
letter, written by one or the other,
might be violated as TO its seal, but
that fact would in no wise Justify its
use as evidence. The court sustained
this much of the defendants grounds
tor appeal, but in the second count
found that there were grounds upon
which the trial court was justified in
granting the divorce.

A Big Fruit Crop This Year.

Col. w. H. McLane of Henry
county, as is his usual custom each
spring, has made his report on the
fruit crop, after careful investigation
of the condition of the trees On his
farm near Clinton.
Contrary to his opinion from the
examination Of buds some time ago, he
thinks peaches will make almost full
crop. Pears promise at least two
thirds of a crop ounces and apricots
half crop, cherries and plums full
crop.
This will be welcome news, as the last
years fruit crop was almost failure
When Missouri does turn out a fruit
crop, and she seldom fails, it is a
whOpper. and such a one may be
looked for this season.

A Versailles versifier.

Missouri has never been prolific OF
poets or pOetical works, therefore, the
appearance of a volume of verse by a
local bard Is an event of transferable
literary interest.
The BAzOO is in receipt of a new
book entitled "Old Tlmes-a collec-
ton of original verses by Mr.. E. A.
Crewson, of Versailles, Morgan county,
Mo.
The volume is without picture. pre-
face or pretense, is plainly printed and
handsomely bound by Kansas City
publishing house. 1t contains seventy
three pieces. which deal with subjects
sentimental, humorous and pathetic.
There is some attempt at backwood's
dialect.
The longest and perhaps most am
bilious performances are Old Billy
Mckay The Old Stage; The Old
House Dick Mcbride; To Town and
Back Evolution Politics; and Don't
Bet Agin a Strange Horse.
The volume would prove ornament
al to any library.
