One of the most important books that
we are to have next winter is to be
"The Personal Recollections of Senator
John Sherman. the memoirs are not
yet completed fact, scarcely one
half of the work is as yet prepared, and
even this finished portion will have to
be revised before the manuscript is
given to the printer. Hence it may be
that the actual appearance of the work
will be delayed until far into the win
ter. When the work is ready, however,
it vii consist of two large volumes and
will cover Senator Sherman's record of
10 years of congressional life, and a
period of 10 years at the bao. Natu

find its way into the volumes, and this
new material. principally bearing upon
the authors public life and the public
measures with which he has been iden

the work. 1t is the authors intention
to write the book in a popular way,
away from partisan lines, so that it will
interest all classes. Senator Sherman's
book will be published on the subscrIp
tion plan by Il New York house.
Frau Anna Seuron, long a govcrncss
in Toltsoi's family, has been making
some eaustlc statements in regard to
the great novelist's life, the object Of
which is to show that his preaching
and his practice do not agree. She
says that he treats his peasants very
stingily. iustifying himself, in his
own eyes by his theories as to the
evils of money and the blessings of
poverty when there were only three
spades in the village, he refused To
help buy more, saying that precisely
this lack of instruments made them
lend 10 each other, and that was an
act Of brothelly love. p" \ browning

charge must be admitted, for when i'll
comes to detecting tobacco smoke a
woman is an infalliblc witness.

NELSON MORRIS AGAIN BEATEN
His Contract With Montana Cattle
man Declared to Be Binding.

His Contract With Montana Cattle
man Declared to Be Binding.
Chicago, Oct. 16.-The supreme
court has just handed down decision
which will be of great interest to cat
tlemen and others interested in meat
packing. In 1890 Pierre Wibaux, who
owns large ranch at Wibaux, Mont,
made contract with Nelson Morris to
supply him with all the cattle of GER
tain grade that there was raised on the
Wes,ern ranges at a given price.
Shortly afterward the price of beef
took sudden drop, and Mr.. Morris
offered Wibaux $25, 900 to be released
from his contract. This the ranchman
refused, and when the fall came on,
began shipping the cattle by the thou
sands. When the account ran up to
$40, ZOO the Chicago packer notified
him that he would receive no more
shipments, contract or no contract.
Then Wibaux began suit. The finding
was in his favor for $4,000, but he
was denied 10 per cent interest which
he asked for.
An appeal was taken by Morris, and
the second decisi On was again in favor
of Wibaux. In addition he was allow
ed the interest. Again an appeal was
taken, and this time Wibaux is again
successful. The total amount now due
the ranchman is about $75, 900, and
Mr.. Morris will, besides, be compelled
to pay the large court costs which
have accrued.

BOOM FOR WESTERN NEVADA
Sale Consummated of the Buckeye
Group of Placer Mines.

Sale Contaminated of the Buckeye
Group of Placer Mines.
Carson, New, Oct 16.-One of the
largest mining deals for many years in
this state was consummated last Satur-
day night, when the Buckeye group of
placer mines, belonging principally to
Carson people, was sold to Charles
Lane, of the firm of Lane, Hayward
& Hobart, of San Francisco, for $780,
900. The mines are situated in Doug
las county, twelve miles from Pine
Nut, and have been worked since 1891,
but, owing to the scarcity of water,
very little gold was taken out. The
water to be used by the new owners
will be brought from Alpine creek,
CAL, at cost of $150,0O0, and will
necessitate the employment of great
many men, causing revival of every
business enterprise, the running of
sawmills, freight teams, etc. Promi-
nent railroad, mining, and conserva-
tive business men, speaking of the sale,
say it is the best thing for Western
Nevada that has happened for many
years, and will cause revival of all
mining and agricultural enterprises,
and assist in the sale of other mines,
and that the production of gold will
hereafter exceed that of silver.

A Large Crowd Heard the Address Of
the English Anarchist.
st. Louis, Oct. 16.- Charles w.
Mowbray, an English anarchist, de-
livered speech on anarchy y-commun-
ism to large crowd at Walhalla hall
yesterday afternoon. All of his senti-
ments were loudly applauded. He
pointed out the social, moral and polit-
ical evils of the times, and then at
tributed their existence to the system
of government which holds sway in
every land. Mowbray jokingly refer
red to the fact that he was out on bond
for insulting the flag of Uncle Sam in
a recent speech, and added:
"What does the red, white and blue
mean to you? What does the Union
jack mean to me? They should mean
nothing to each and every one of us,
for they are really fools who rally
around piece Of calico to maintain
the Rothschilds of the world. The de-
claration of independence is dead let
ter. Men have been arrested for read
ing it on the streets. No form of gov
ernment ever met the wants of the peo-
pie. Patriotism is dead.

S. c. BROWN TO HANG
The Supreme Court Confirms
the Sentence.
THE SLAYER OF FRED KINCAID
All Exceptions to the Former Trial
Were Passed Upon and An
other Trial Denied.

Salem, Oct. 16.-The Judgment OF
the circuit court in Douglas county
condemning Samuel g. Brown to hang
for the killing of Fred Kincaid, and
from which defendant appealed, was
today confirmed by an opinion handed
down by the supreme court. The opin-
ion was written by Judge Moore. In
this cause the defendant in the court
below moved for a new trial, which
was denied. The appeal was taken
from the Judgment, the defendant
holding that the court erred in refus-
ing to set aside the Indictment; in re-
fusing to sustain challenges submitted
to the trial jurors; in the admission of
improper evidence, and in refusing to
give certain instructions to the jury.
In motion to dismiss, accompanied
by an affidavit, it was alleged that
Theodore Andrews, who served on the
grand jury that returned the indict-
ment, was incompetent, having served
as juror in the same court within
less than one year prior to finding the
Indictment.
In its ruling, the supreme court held
oAdu e14O a. uht1b ldAACu " SAOW Ch0O
Andrews did not possess all the quail
fications prescribed by statute for a
grand juror, or that he had been con-
yicted of felony OF misdemeanor involv-
ing moral turpitude. On the question
raised by defense as to trial juror
having an opinion, the court said:
"The fact that a juror entertains an
opinion founded upon newspaper re-
ports or information from other sources
does not, under the statute, necessarily
render him incompetent to serve on
trial jury. I"
The court failed to find abuse by the
lower court in the matter Of dealing
with charges of actual bias, and the
evidence admitted under protest by the
defense is held to have been admis-
sible. The court stated that it feels
that an impartial trial in the manner
prescbribed by law was had, and that
the judgment is affirmed.

Twenty-Three victims Already.

known as Gaetna Stomoli has been ar
rested here for the wholesale poisoning
of children with PHOSPHORUS. She adj
ministered the poison by mixing it
with wine and prevailing upon the
children to drink it. Her victims al
ready number twenty-three. It is
stated that they died in fearful agony.
The woman has confessed to having
committed the deed, and offered as an
explanation that she wanted revenge
for the death of her two children, who

GIGANTIC LINE OF FLAMES.
Twenty Volcanoes of the AIeutian Chain
Now A Active.

San Francisco, Oct. 16.-The rev.
enue cutter Commodore Perry has re.
turned from the Northern sea, where
she has been confronted every night
for weeks by gigantic line of flames.
As Captain Smith expresses it, "The
DEVILS stokers have been stirring up
the subeterranean sea of flames that is
supposed to lie thousands of feet below
Behring's bed, and as consequence
fully twenty of the present volcanoes
in the Aleutian chain are now active. "
The line of islands lying between
Behring sea and the Pacific ocean be.
longs to the United States, and on
them are probably the only active vol
canoes lying within American terri
tory. Much has been written of Bo-
gaslov island, which has been throw
ing up cloud of steam at times for
years; but it was supposed all the
other peaks on this singular line of ISL
ands were extinct craters. Now, as
far as the eye can reach from any
point in Behring sea adjacent or even
at distance from the famous sea ISL
ands, the rising smoke and steam can
be seen in both directions. The erup-
tion is general and SO very lively that
at night the airy columns take on the
reflections of the fires deep in the earth
beneath the craters.
Nowhere else on the globe can such
a sight be witnessed. In the day time
only the white smoke or steam is WIS.,
ible. AS dusk comes and darkness fol-
lows the wonder grows. The brighter
columns show up in the cold Alaskan
night first, and, as it gets darker,
other vivid clouds of smoke are to be
seen. Sometimes, when the position
of the observer is advantageous,
dozen or fifteen of these modern pillars
of fire are in sight.
The show of subterranean force is
the most noteworthy ever observed on
soil. As proof of the mystic
power that is at work beneath the isl
ands, neck of land has been forced
up out of the sea between Bogaslov and
Old Bogaslov, and the two islands are
now one. It is queer looking land that
has taken the place of one of the passes
shown on the chart as connecting the
Behrihg sea with the greater ocean to
the southwark The rocks in this neck
are manifestly of volcanic origin, but
are smooth on the surface, as if once
melted.

Chi1e,s sympathy for Cuba.

New York, Oct. 16.-A special to

Spanish minister at Santiago de Chile
has sent note of protest to the minis
ter of foreign affairs against the dis
play of the Cuban flag by the side of
the Chilean at reception to the Gu
ban insurgents given in this city. The
Chilean minister has promised, it is re-
ported, that there shall be no repetition
of the display.

HILLS PROPOSED PLAN.

His Efforts to Unite the Northern Pa
ciffc and Great Northern.
Olympia, WASH, Oct. IA deci-
sion against the Northern Pacific Rail-
road Company, in case involving
over 81, 900, 900 worth of agricultural
and timber lands in the Gray's harbor
country, north of Aberdeen, has been
rendered by the commissioner of the
general land Office. June 5, 1895, the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company Sc
lected the lands in question, but prior
to that date the lands had been settled
upon by twenty-eight bona-fide set
tiers. June 26, 1895, the Olympia
officers were instructed to notify these
settlers that they would be allowed
thirty days in which to enter the lands
covered by their respective claims. and
that, in the event of their availing
themselves of the privilege thus grant,
ed, the company's selection of the
lands would be cancelled. All of the
twenty EIGHT applicants failed to make
entries allowed, and John F. Soule, of
Hoquiam, and others, made applica-
tion to file upon the land, the rights of
the others having been forfeited. The
railroad company claimed that, as it
had selected the lands prior to the ap-
plications of the second list of settlers,
it was entitled to the land in the event
of the original applicants losing their
rights. The commissioner holds that
the rights of the first applicants did
not expire until July of this year, and
that the railroads selection made prior
to that date would not hold. The rail-
road company could make selections
after the expirations of the original ap-
plicants' time for entering, but Soule
and those associated with him got in
ahead of the railroad company and the
commissioner awards to them the
right to prove up on the land.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The ways of Providence and some mundane powers are inscrutable. Why was Motorman Foley suspended? His car had the right of way; and at the instant the headlight of the down car became visible, as this witness can tes- tify, he applied the brakes vigorously.
 Perhaps his suspension is due to the fact that he entered his car, not wait ing outside to be killed. PASSENGER. s2
