SIDE LIGHT THOWN ON.

The secret of how some Of the
great speeches" of so-called great
men, with side lights thrown on, is
told by a Texas writor in the fol
lowing true and interesting man
ner:
If distinguished gentleman has
his brain agitated on any current
question of interest he determines
to make a speech. AS a general
thing he gives his young man, F"
who acts as his secretary, a crude
idea of his crude thoughts on the
subject, and the young man" goes
to the library of the distinguished
gentleman, pulls down an encyclo-
paedia and classical dictionary and
writes out the thoughts of his EN-
ployer, or what he thinks his EN-
ployer thinks, in decent and gram
NAUTICAL English; not only the argu-
ment, but the diction and meta
phors of the speech depend more
upon the ability of the "young
man, and if there is no special
young man about, some literary
hack, than on the ability of the or
ator. The speech is handed to the
typewriters, who make copies
enough for all the daily papers in
the state. Then after the great
man has memorized the speech some
convenient friend writes him that
the citizens of A or B would like to
hear his views on the subject writ
ten upon such a day and date. The
statesman answers modestly &C
cepting the invitation, and pro-
ceeds to the place on the date men
toned But before he goes he
sends his speech to the daily papers
and it is in print before he delivers
it, and this is what is known as
newspaper taking" and this is the
way the great men are made by the
kindness of the newspapers.

WHO AND WHAT SHE IS.
Something About the Young Woman

woman said to be the cause of the
family troubles of William X. Van

native of Eureka, New, and was
educated at the Miles Seminary,

a number of years in San Francisco,

his fortune at her feet. She util-
lied them both until she fell in love
with Young cigar drummer named
Henry Neustrotter. She married
Neustrotter and all went well for
time. Her husbands business COM
PEELED him to be out of the city
most Of the time, and during his
absence Nellie led rapid life. She
was the boon companion Of all fast
young men about town, and the end
came soon. She left her husband
and went to New York in company
with Laura Edelman, a noted wo-
man of Los Angeles. Neustrotter
secured a divorce from Nellie, and
she continued to lead gay life in
New York. She captured the heart
of a millionaire manufacturer, who
gave her a sumptuous fiat, horses
and all the money she could spend.
He took her to Europe where she
Travelled like princess. When she
returned to New York she dazzled
the people with the elegance of her
Worth dresses and the brilliancy of
her jewels.
'In 1890 she returned to San
Francisco to visit her parents, who
had moved to this city from Eure-
ka She took rooms at a leading
hotel, dressed better than any wo-
man in town, wore thousands Of
dollars worth of gems and spent
money as freely as if she had an UNI
limited letter of credit on the Unit
ed States mints. Her money began
to give out and she went back to
New York for more, taking with
her pretty Oakland girl.
"The next heard from her was
that she had gone to Europe again,
and had been elected from the Con-
tinental Hotel in Paris. To her
parents she wrote that she was
studying for the stage, and she al
ways concealed from them the fact
that she was leading a fast life.
She wrote that she was coming to
San Francisco in October, but
probably her adventure with Mr..
Vanderbilt may interfere with her
plans"

BOLD COUNTERFEITERs.
Nevada County, Ark, the Scene of
their Exploits Wholesale Arrest
of the Guilty Parties.

A special dispatch from Nevada
county to the Gazette, at Little
Rock, makes the following start
ling announcement:
A remarkable band of counter
feiters has been unearthed at Bod
cav, a small village in the south
western part of Nevada county,
this State. They comprise mer-
chants, cattle dealers, tradesmen
and farmers, and the band numbers
twenty well known and heretofore
well respected citizens. Some
months ago dangerous counterfeit
silver coins gained a wide circula-
ton in Nevada and neighboring
counties, and aroused the good peo-
pie of Bodcaw, from which they
seemed to emanate, to the devising
of means of finding their source
and bringing their circulators to
justice. They came to the conclu-
sion it was best to write the au-
thorities at Washington, City. This
was done and about two months ago
W. L. Wick, one of the Govern
ment's most expert secret service
men, was detailed from St Louis
to work up the case. He has done so
most eifectually. Ten of the band
are already in prison, and warrants
are out for the others, who will
soon be apprehended Those under
arrest are George Vought, the sup
posed leader, a cattle dealer, Jas.
McNatt, who keeps general store
at Bodcaw, Berry Huckleby, a
blacksmith at Bodcaw, an expert
maker of moulds for counterfeit
ing.
These and Nose, Wesley and Chas.
Deloney, father and sons, aud Will
lis Riley, all farmers, have been ar
rested within the past week, and
are in the Pen awaiting examina-
ton Yesterday Sam Ferguson,
Dave Nichols and WIN. Steele were
arrested and placed in the Pen for
safe keeping. They have been in
the business about six months. The
moulds and coin were made in the
blacksmith shop Huckleby exper-
imented until he obtained moulds
and an alloy almost perfect, throw
ing the imperfect moulds and coin in
a creek near by, it being estimated
that about 200 moulds have been
so secreted.
The unearthing of this crime
right at their doors, and involving
SO many of their, heretofore re-
spected neighbors, has been the
means of arousing intense excite
ment among the good citizens of
the Bodcaw neighborhood. Much
credit is accorded detective Wick, of
the secret service department, for
his sl1illful work in uuearthing this
crime and running down the crimi-
nails, concerned therein. Mr. Wick
arrived at Bodcaw about the middle
of July and has been steadily at
work on the case ever since.

cure deafness, and that is by con

will be destroyed forever Nine
