missing dispositions had been found.
There they were, and with them stall
wart Deputy County Clerk, who, as he
took the stand, gave his name as Frank
Norton.
Norton had to say that on finishing the
writing of his books that very afternoon,
shortly after o'clock, he had come
across paper package lying loose in his
desk which attracted his attention. He
picked 1t up. opened and examined it, and
at once saw that it was the package con-
tanning the loDg-lost de positions so ardently
searched for by those interested in the
John B. Martin side of the case. The
package was found to be complete, mas
much as it contained the lost dispositions of
Mrs. Bly, Coles Williams, Mrs. Rose Lar
kin, DR.. W. W. Van ValZah and William
Hunter of New York City, and that of
Mrs. Josephine Plows-Day of Paris.

Had you never seen any bundle of the
kind in the desk beforeW
well, yes. l noticed a similar bundle
in the desk for five or six days. but never
took the trouble to look at it,"
These preliminaries being settled, Crit
tenden Thornton started in to read the
deposition as yet not lsid before the jury.
1t proved to be the evidence of a friend of
Mrs. John Martin. The deponent stated
that in April and May, 1891, she had occu-
pied room and bed with Mrs. j ohn Martin
in the San Carlos Hotel, New York City i.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1894-08-10

A male child was born to Mrs. Martin
May g. 1891. She had reason to remember
the circumstance because she had wager
upon the sex of the child previous to its
birth. She won that wager.
CrOss-in terrogatives revealed the fact
that Mrs. Plows-Day, who describes her
self as woman OF no occupation. but re-
lying upon herself for her own support,
accompanied Mrs. John Martin to the
races once. But she denied that she ever
accompanied Mrs. Martin to dinners
given by gentlemen not related to her,"
Soon after Mrs. Martin recovered FROM
her sickness the deponent left for Europe.
What persons did you meet in Mrs.
Martins room?" asked one interrogatory.
"Mr. Plat, Mrs. Platt, Miss Platt. the
manager of the hotel. DR.. Van Valzah,
Mrs. Rose Larkins, the nurse. and gen.
tleman whose name do not remem ber,"
was the answer.
All the dispositions were then formally
introduced in evidence, photographs of
Mrs John Martin and her baby boy being
annexed to each. They were handed to
the jury for inspection.
Grove johnson then announced that he
had another favor to ask. 1t was half.
past 4 o'clock. and the Sacramento lawyer
desired an adjournment. The witness he
was expecting had not arrived. Mr. John
son assured the court that without fail his
case would close with one more days
session.
Mr.. Delmas said he was anxious to put
ex-Judge George E. Williams on the stand,
but that the Judge had an important en-
gagement to fill in Placerville on Saturday
night However, it was finally arranged
that the Judge would return to testify by
Thursday next.
The days session closed with state
ment by Clerk Murphy TO the effect that
he had diligently searched among the pa
pers in the desk where the missing deposit
lions were found. This was some days ago.

sides the desk drawer was opened by ma

CHICAGO. Aug. 9.-The Western Passen-
ger Ass ociation adjourned its meeting TO-
day without having settled the question of
harvest excursions in any way, the matter
being left over till the next meeting of the

be made with the railroads. The society
has asked that rate of $50 for the round

 eral Armour that it might also be try ing to their charge. Neither he nor his wife had taken into account the possi- bility of the girl having feelings to be hurt, But he had noticed Lali shrink visibly and flush slightly when some one stared harder than usual, and this troubled him. It opened up a possibility. He began indefinitely to see that they were not the only factors ill the equa- tion. He was probably a little vexed that he had not seen it before, for he wished to be just man. He was wont to quote with more or less austerity- chiefly the result of his professional life this, ''For justice all place temple and all seasons summer. And, man of war as he was, he had another saying which was much in his mouth, and he lived up to it with considerable sheer ity, "Still in thy right hand carry gen. tie peace to silence envious tongues.
 He whispered to his wife. It would have been hard to tell from her look what she thought of the matter, but presently she changed seats with her husband that he might, by holding his newspaper at certain angle, shield the girl from intrusive gazers.
 At every station the same scene was enacted. And inquisitive people must have been surprised to see how monoto- nously ordinary was the manner of the three white people in the compartment. Suddenly at q station near London Gen eral Armour gave start and used a strong expression under his breath.
 Glancing at the ''marriage" column, he saw a notice to the effect that on certain day of a certain month Francis Gilbert, the son of General Joseph Ar mour, c. B., of Greyhope, Hertford- shire and Cavendish square, was mar ried to Lali, the daughter of Eye-of- -the- Moon, chief of the Bloods, at her fa- ther s lodge in the Saskatchewan valley. This had been inserted by Frank Ar mour's solicitor, according to his in- structions, on the day that the Aphrodite was due at Liverpool. General Armour did not at first intend to show this to his wife, but on second thought he did, because he knew she would eventually come to know of it, and also because she saw that something had moved him. She silently reached Out her hand for the paper. He harded it to her, point ing to the notice.

and involuntarily thrust out her other hand, as if to relieve his pressure. As she did so the blanket fell away from her head and shoulders. Lambert. with excellent intuition, caught it and threw it across his arm. Then, quickly and without embarrassment, he and Mrs. Townley greeted General Armour, who returned the greetings gravely, but i'll a singular confidential tone, which showed his gratitude Then he raised his hat again to Lali and said, "Come and let me introduce you-.to your husbands mother. !"
 The falling back of that blanket had saved the situation, for when the girl stood without it ill her buckskin gar ments there was dignity ill her bearing which carried off the bizarre event. There was timidity ill her face, and yet kind of pride, too, though she was only savage. The case, even at this critical moment, did not seem quite hopeless. When they came to Mrs. Armour, Lali shrank awny tinlidly from the look ill the mother $ eyes, and shiyering slightly looked round for her blanket. But Lam bert had deftly passed it on to the foot man. Presently Mrs. Armour took both the girls hands ill hers-perhaps she did it because the eyes of the public were on her, but that is neither here nor there, she did it-and kissed her on the cheek. Then they moved away to @ closed carriage .,Es
 And that was tho second act in Frank Armour's comedy of errors.

SOME INSIDE FACTS.
Such Matters Always Leak Out.

THIS TIME IT CARRIED THE GREAT NEWS
 FARAND wIDE-MANY FAMILIES ALL OVER
 THE LAND ARE DEEPLY INTERESTED IN
 THE MATTER.
 There are many things in the lives of persons and families which when they are known become matters of public interest. People always want to know those things which personally concern them, which add to their welfare, their looks or their com- fort. Here is piece of news which com ing from such high authority makes it of more than ordinary interest.
 Mrs. Charles H. Heaton, residing at 143 State Street, Montpelier, Vt, is a most lovely and accomplished lady The family has the very highest social stand ing. Her husband has held many offices of trust in the city and in politics, and among the Masonic fraternity stands at the head. Her husbands father is pres ident of the Montpelier Savings Bank and Trust Co.,, the largest bank in the city. Her father is prominent railroad man. She writes as follows:
 1.-Two years ago we had terrible ex- perience with La Grippe and by overwork in taking care of my children and the re. suits of the disease I was left in a very exhausted condition, in fact was nearly prostrated. I was so weak that upon the least excitement I would feel nauseated l was as near nervous prostration as any one could be.
 Someone recommended Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy to me and immediately began it's use. l am happy to say that it completely cured me. 1 think it is the best medicine ever knew of for any form of nervous or chronic dis ease. 1 have recommended it to many and shall do so upon every occasion"
 This letter is of the utmost importance to you for it tells you just what to do to be cured. If you are nervous, weak, tired sleepless, if you have headache. indiges- ton, kidney or liver complaint, poor blood and weak nerves, you can surely regain your health and he as well as you ever were by taking Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
 The strengthening and curative powers of this remedy are wonderful. Use it and you will be made well and strong. It is the discovery of Dr. Greene, the most suc- cessful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases. He can be consulted by all at his office, 35 West 14th Street, New York, free, personally or by letter.

It was beautiful day, which was so much ill favor of Mrs. Frank Armour in relation to her husbands people.
 General Armour and his wife had come down from London by the latest train possible that their suspense at Liver pool might be short. They said little to each other, but when they did speak it was of things very different from the skeleton which they expected to put into the family cupboard presently.
 Each was trying to spare the other. It was very touching. They naturally looked upon the matter in its most Rn-

 Then Richard appeared to recover himself and did as he was requested, but not until his brother's B wife had said to him ill English as they oourteously drew her toward the staircase, "Oh. my brother Richard, howr'
 But the first strain and suspense were now over for the family, and it is prob able that never had they felt such relief as when they sat down behind closed doors in their own rooms for respite, while the Indian girl was closeted alone with Mackenzie and trusted maid in what she called her wigwam.
