Probably Crazy.
A. SUMMERFIEbD, p. NJ.

The trial of Durrant began in San
Francisco last week. The motion
for a change of venue was denied,
and most of the time has been taken
up in trying TO get a jury, which is
slow work.
The other day when the Sheriff
went to the prisoners cell to take
him into Court, he found him read
ing the Harvey-Horr debate, and as
he arose to accompany the Sheriff, he
said: L think Horr has the best of
the argument" Can anything indi-
cate insanity more plainly?

To be Moved to Reno.

Virginia to Reno. 1t is expected
that the arrangements will be made
and that work will soon be begun.

The Edgington residence was a

we imagine that it would appear
quite commonplace beside some of

Valuable Suggestions.

\ local physician contributes these
suggestions for the guidance of pa.
rents. They are valuable at this
time, when bot weather and green
fruit are the main causes of child
rens ailments:
Apropos of the hot season, espe-
eially the months of July and Au-
gust, it might be we'll for parents to
observe the following advice regard
ing their children, particularly in
fants, with the view of preventing,
as far as possible, the Summer com
plants of children, so prevalent dur
ing hot weather; Keep the houses
sweet, clean, cool and well-aired. The
windows in very hot weather, should
be left open day and night Let no
Stops collect to poison the air. Watch
your drainage and cesspools. Cor
rect foul smell by pouring chloride
of lime in sinks and closets. Let
children have the plainest yet whole
some food, avoiding all unripe fruits,
and very small children should have
no fruit at all, however ripe, unless
thoroughly cooked, and mono of the
irritating fruits, such as berries with
numerous small seeds which act as
irritants to the bowels. All water
given to infants should be boiled be
fore using
BRIEF RULES FOR CASES OF EMER-
GENCY.
Rule If child is suddenly at
tackled with vomiting, purging and
prostration, send for your family
physician at once. In meantime put
child for q few minutes in hot bath,
then carefully wipe it dry and wrap
it in warm blankets. If extremities
are cold use hot water bottles
wrapped in flannel to them.
Rnle "A mush or flaxseed poul-
tice or flannels wrung out of hot wa
ter should be placed all over abdo-
men,
Rule "a few drops of iced bran
dy in water or in milk, and lime wa
ter may be given for the vomiting.
Rule 4.-Give the child cold water
freely, unless the doctor prohibits,
which will be only in rare instances.
Ruld 5.-The soiled diapers or
discharges should be at once removed
from the room, but saved for the
physician to examine at his visit.
Above all things, if the symptoms
as above described should appear,
do not delay one moment, but pro
coed at once with the advice given,
or you may have cause to regret
your procrastiaation. If your fam
lily physician is at hand you had bet
ter call him in, then he will give you
such further advice as the case de-
mands, and you will not only save q
prolonged and expensive attack of
illness, but YOU may save the life of
a loved one by prompt action.
Choleraic diarrhea, etc, as rule
will not give either the family or
physician much anxiety if taken in
time, but il long delayed may cost
precious life

 The address of the evening was made by Robert L. Ross and was an earnest appeal to the unconverted. At its close Rev. Dr. Vail of Trinity M. E. church gave a brief, pointed talk, in which he invited to the altar both those willing to consecrate themselves for Christian work and those desiring to become Christians. A large number responded, and the altar was soon filled.
 The young people have every reason to feel encouraged, and intend to con tinue these meetings throughout the week. The services tonight will be held at Trinity M. E. church, corner George and Dwight streets, beginning at 7:3O o'clock with a praise service, led by F. J. Mansfield At o'clock an address will be given by H.
