II. w. Edwards, of Lansingburgh, was
Frustrated by snnstroke during the war
and it has entailed on him peculiar and
serious consequences. AT present writing
Mr.. II. is n prominent officer of Post Lyon,
e.. A. r., Cohoes. and past aid de camp
on the staff of the eommander-in-ehiet of
Albany County In the interview with
a reporter he said;
II was wounded ard sent to the hospital
at Winchester. They sent me, together
with Others TO Washington ride OF
about 100 miles. Having no room in the
box cars we were placed face up on the
bottom of fat cars. The sun beat down
upon our unprotected heads. When l
reached Washington was insensible and
was unconscious for ten days while in the
hospital. An abscess gathered in my ear
and broke; ii has been gathering and
breaking ever since. The result of this
100 mile ride and sunstroke was heart
disease, nervous prostration insomnia
and rheumatism; a completely shattered
system which gave me no rest night or
day. As last resort | took some Pink
Pills and they helped me TO wonderful
degree. My rheumatism is gone, my
heart failure, dyspepsia and constipation
are about gone and the abscess in my ear
has stopped discharging and my head feels
as clear as bell, when before IT felt as
though ii would burst and my once shat
tered nervous system is now nearly sound.
Look at those fingers Mr.. Edwards said,
do they look as IL there was any rheum-
atism there" He moved his fingers rap
idly and freely and strobe about the room
like young boy. "A year ago those EN-

A SALvATIONIsT INVASION.

China is to be again invaded, but this
time by an army of peace. The Saliva
ton Army is on the move for the land of
the Brother of the Sun. 1t remains to be
seen if China is TO be open to religion as
well as to trade. Japan certainly put no
such condition into the recent treaty.
We apprehend that the Salvationists
will find it the most difficult task they
have ever undertaken to plant their
parti-oolored standard upon Chinese soil.
Theirs is very effective missionary work,
it is true, but more so among Americans
and Europeans, where the classes are
found to whom the Salvation Army
comes, but which will not come up to the
temples of religion through any other
mediums than those of which the Saliva
ton Army is type.
But the red jacketed and blue bon
nettd evangelists will have none to appeal
to in China such as they find in the gut
ters in this land and in England. They
go out, therefore, experimentally wholly:
their experience in India even will not
avail them much in China. They will be
compelled to map out new courses and
devise new methods of approach. If
they can adapt themselves to Chinese
tastes and customs somewhat; transpose
Chinese songs and fit to them gospel
words; if they can open the understand
ing of the Chinese to the doctrines of
mercy, helpfulness, care for the sick and
to the gospel of gentleness, cleanliness
and brotherly love. they may accomplish
much.
There is a good deal of faith to be
placed in the persistence of the Saliva
tion;sts, their forbearance and their
adroitness. But they are going out to
meet superstition in its stronghold,
fatalism in it's home and hatred of the
foreigner in its chief seat. We shall
await the result of the first efforts of the
pioneer bands with great deal of inter-
est; we shall watch for the first reports of
the invasion by the bass drum and tink-
ling tambourine eyangelists with the
livelisst concern. If the army" is not
at first, and perhaps for long time,
rudely repulsed we shall be sgreeably

A True Hero

Is the individual who smiles with apparent
cheerfulness during an attack of rheumatism.
'If such there be- we never met him nor her.
An agonized grin is the nearest approach to
cheerfulness of aspect we ever beheld under
such circumstances. But when Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters has repelled-as it certainly
will-the earlier attacks of this formidable
disease, the quondam sufferer has good reason
not alone to smile, but TO give vent 10 hearty
outlaws lnterspersed with frequent chuckes.
TO the removal OF dyspepsia, malarial and
kidney complaints, constipation and disorder
of the liver the Bitters is specially adapted.
1t renews failing strength aud appetite and
counteracts the infirmilies of age. When de-
biltating maladies are succeeded by tardy
convalescence with a danger OF relapse, it
accelerateS q gain in VigOr and flesh, and
tends to re-estabiish health on lasting basis.
Give it suitable trial.

WHERE ARE THE SPROUF BROTHERS?
Said to Have Lit Out When "Shy
Red" Was Taken.
An Oroyille Chum of the Prisoner Who
May be an Important
Witness.

It Is not unlikely that one of these days
detectives will again be on the hunt for
Joe and Bill Sprout to have them placed
on trial for the murder of Mr.. and Mrs.
Weber in this city in December last.
The Sprouts have relative who is en-
ployed in the detective branch of the San
Francisco police department and they
seem to keep pretty well posted on what
goes on down there. When their names
were first connected with that of Sandt,
alias "Shy Red" as the supposed guilty
parties, they remained in seclusion until
thop became assured that Sandt had not
been found, and then they gave them
selves up, knowing that the officers here
had no evidence on which they could be
held.
Since their release the Sprouts have
been about San Francisco. One of them
was arrested there few weeks since for
garroting man. but that WAS the last
heard of the affair, as he was soon at
large again. When Sandt was arrested
the other day Joe and Bill concluded to
60 elsewhere. just who it was that gave
them the tip is not known, but it Is said
they are not now in San Francisco.
Ii guy Ieeu udO AL W QO Will
the Weber murders the Sprouts must
have been aware of it, for it is known
that they were together here about that
time and were quite "chummy" with
him.
AS to whether or not suffi cient evidence
can be produced to connect the former
with these crimes remains to be seen.
Sheriff Johnson recently visited Oroville
TO interview person there who used to
run WITH Sandt, and he informed the
Sheriff that about week before the Web
ers were murdered Sandt told him he had
a rich old couple In Sacramento whom he
intended to work.
This will be important evidence if it
can be connected with Sandt's subsequent
movements. He is indeed shy just
now, and cunning enough not to say any
thing that would tend in the slightest de-
gree 10 inculpate himself. He is still In
the City Jail and all attempts to get him to
talk about the affair have failed.
1t will be remembered that Detective
Simmons told the Supervisors recently
that if he had succeeded in arresting Sandt
when he went in search Of him he (Sandt)
could have been convicted. Now that the
suspect Is under arrest and will doubtless
be placed on trial, it is hoped that the de-
tectlve will be able TO furnish conclusive
evidence against him.

The Marysville Democrat charges that
the RECORD UNION condemned the Do
bris Com mission in advance and without
hearing Nothing of the kind. We have
stated facts, not one of which has been
disproved. So far as those facts 60 to
show that consent has been given to erect
dams that cannot serve the purpose OF
the law, there may be said TO be con-
demnation. But note this, it ia not our
condemnation but the judgment OF facts.
We have no animosity in anything we
say or have said upon the subject; we
have distinctly disavowed any personal
assault upon the commission. Our ar
rows have been facts, feathersd and
pointed truth, and if the shafts have
struck the commission it is not our fault.
granting permits is wrong, radically
wrong, and in that fact lies the key to the
situation. When dams can be and are
built that will restrain SO as to prevent
damage, present and prospective, there
will be no complaint; but rs no such
dams have been or can be built within
the margin of the output OF any by
draulic mine there is an end OF the mat
ter. The system that permits dams less
effective than complete and permanent
retention is a cheat, a snare and de-

it is simply shameful. The value OF
police officer to the community is not in
his authority alone, but in his courage
and his physical ability, and likewise in
the privilege the law gives him to use it.
Let thugD and FOUNDERS, thieves and bur-
glars, footpads and garroters, under
stand that the Sacramento policeman
stands in such terror of the city legislat-
urs that he dare not use his club or his
fists and the usefulness Of the officer is at
an end. An officer is not to be brutal; he
must not use his club or pistol nor his
fists, except on gross provocation; he
must be as humane and gentle as circum-
stances will permit, but the club swings
ut his belt for use, not ornament: his pis-
tol is furnished for the purpose of shoot
ing at human beings when the need is,
not at targets. He is required to be phys
ically strong and to be able bodied that
he may throttle, down and fell those who
resist his lawful process Or persist in
criminal actions. We would not give
tupenny bit for an officer who will not
and cannot knock thug into insensibi-
ity, and who is too timid to choke
woman beater into non-resistance.

UNDER WHICH LAVE {

The North Bloomfield Company, as we
understand it, claims to derive its privi-
lege to carry on hydraulic mining from
an old order of the United States Court
temporarily suspending the injunction
under which it had been restrained, and
contends, therefore, that it does not fall
under the jurisdiction of the Debris Com
mission. The public are not interested
in the legal technicalities that may be
involved in this issue, but are very much
concerned as to the manner in which the
claim is worked.
1t is of no consequence to those whose
property is most likely to be injured
field mine is worked under the sur
veillance of the commission Or in ac-
cordance with the law as contained in
Judge Sawyer's decision, though we con-
fess to a decided leaning toward the lat
ter, but it is of the highest consequence
that, if is work at all, it shall do SO HARM
lsssly by retaining its debris securely
and permanently. We suspect, however.
that the company prefers to derive its
license from the court in this instance,
because of the remoteness of responsible
ity to that authority. We may say, also,
that if the company has any good reason
to think that the commission will not be
sufficiently lenient, the public would
suffer no harm il its workings should be
Investigated by the officers OF the court.

OLD observers at the East say that they
knew the recent frost would come. The
Inter- Ocean OF Chicago, for instance, puts
it this way:
thermometer insisted that it was mldSum-
mer, every weather-wise person knew that
cold snap imminent. What goes up
must come down applies with special iorce
in this case. 1t is not natural TO nave sun
strokes in the first week OF May IN this
climate. And the expected happened An
eager and nipping frost did come. 1t was
general almost as the cold snap OF last winter,
which killed so many orange trees i'll Florida.
and gave the plumbers harvest the country
over.
But our contemporary goes on to show
that the damage always falls below the
estimates in such cases, and proves it by
the experience of many years. Grain, it
holds, has great recuperative power; corn
may be set back without being killed,
and even if killed it can be replanted. In
the diversity Of crops at the East is found
its greatest safety from such an assault as
that of the recent frost, and this holds in
it's truth lesson for California. The
Inter- ocean thinks the greatest injury at
the East has been to berry crops, small
fruits and grapes. AS in berries we offer
but small competition, while in fruits
and grapes we compete most, the mis-
fortune of our Eastern brethren may be
reasonably assumed to inure to our BEN
