THE REV. GIBSON TALKS.
Claims That he has Vertually Been Accused of Murder by the Defense in the Dur
 rant Case.

SAN FRANCIsCo, Oct 1-Now that Rev. J. George Gibson, pastor the Emanuel Baptist church, has virtually been accus- ed by Attorney Deuprey of committing the murders that have made his church notorious, he has seen fit to break the silence which he has maintained ever since the discovery of the crimes. E Rev. Gibson has allowed himself to be interviewed for publication, and the first question asked was, What do you think of MT. Deuprey's speech as sn ar gument in defense of MT. Durrsnt?"
 ''Well, 1t is a mystery to me how any man of MT. Deuprey's age and exper- fence could deliver such reckless talk, when he had in his hand the life or death of s fellow being. Reading be tween the lines it is easy to see that the spe sch was not the one he intended to deliver. It resembles the sermon pre- pared on Sunday morning after the preacher discovered that for various reasons he could not use the one he had worked on for Wesks."
 "Why did you remaln silent so long?"
 'Because as witness 1 had DO right to talk, and l was willing to take my share of newspaper criticism"
 Do you think the situation is chang ed?"
 "Yes. am virtually accused of mur- der. My name Is singled out from among all the witnesses and uttered in loud tones to the jury. MT. Deuprey has declared the fight on. The issue now, according to him, IS between w. H. T. Durrant and myself. The speech gives me the right to conclude that w. II. T. Durrant concurs in the accusation he, through his attorney, accuses me of having some connection with the murd- CT of Blanch Lamont. The public must have noticed that I never accused him of such crime"
 Rev. Gibson talked in sarcastic man. uer about Deuprey, and when asked what he would do If he were arrested, said ironically that he would send foi Deuprey to defend him.
 Were you surprised at his charge against you"
 Not at all. His accusation is in bar mony with all the actions of the defense from the beginning. You surely think 1 am very simple if you suppose I have boen in ignorance of the work going on in the underground railway"
 Do you think the defense will spring some surprise CD you?"
 "That IS good question, but I don't care to answer it in public. I think I can smell rat as well as any person. I hope ths rat, for his own sake will choose the right moment to come out of the hole. When he appears the cat will not have bell on its neck"
 "Your handwriting IS going to figure in this csse?"
 "Yee, so MT. Deuprey says. He knows what he is talking about. He was just az sure of my handwriting as he wes of Mr. Cheney's testimony"
 "What is your opinion about the hand ling of the case?'
 .In these days when analogy does duty for logic it is positively refreshing to know of at least two lawyers who are intelligent enough to think that people do not see any difference between 8 bluff and fact"
 Don't you think they are working faithfully"

MEANNESS EXTRAORDINARY.

 mont tn Thta

The Name of Hog Would Be a Compli-
 ment to This Man.
 The champion mean man paid San Francisco a visit the other day, says the Post of that city. He was big, long legged, raw-boned fellow, with nose like the blade of hatchet. His eyes, like little black beads, were set within half an inch of each other and glistened and gleamed at everybody and every thing at once. He clutched the arm of sad-faced little woman with long, bOny hand and clawed at his whiskers with the other as he ordered the waiter in Market street restaurant to give him a cup of coffee The waiter brought it with some bread and butter and laid down check for ten cents.
 Would you give me an extra pitcher of cream?" asked the mean man. The waiter brought it.
 ''Yes, by the way, give me a cup of hot water, will you, please?"
 The waiter brought it and watched the mean man curiOusly. He poured the cream into the hot water, put lit tie sugar in it, showed it to his wife and flung one slice of bread without butter in her direction. The little woman ate it hungrily and the waiter added five cents to the mean mans check.
 The row was heard three blocks up Market street. He declared he was be- ing robbed because he was from the country, but he finally paid when threatened with arrest.

THE STORM
It's Curious Antics-A Phenomena- The Washout and Cause of
 no Mail.

About II o'clock Saturday night one of the heaviest downpours that has visit ed this section for some time set in. Doubtless the storm wes the predicted one that was to have dropped in on us about five days since. It Itcertainly made up for the delay, as about inches of water fell within a short time. The storm was ushered in with peals of thunder and when it was at its height a a report of the discharge of atmospheric electricity bolted upon us with such deafening roar that one would think the entire celestial artillery had exploded. This particular thunder bolt had the effect of making nearly every slumberer jump from thelr downy couches out upon the floor with bound.
 Just prec sdiag this thunder a vivid Hast of lightning struck below town in the bank of gulch snd whether it was the lightning or the thunder that caused it, a trench-like excavation about twenty five feet long and in some places about ten feet deep was made. The peculiarly of the phenomena was that the trench was zigZag shape and at each end seemed scooped out; but little dirt was found near by. A Mexican wood chopper was coming to town horse back and was about 900 to 1200 feet from the place when 1t struck. The flash and thunder seemed to blind and and stun both the horse and rider, the latter ayers that it was fully twenty minutes before he could move, and it was with difficulty that he got hls ani- nal to stir, seemingly rooted to the ground.
 The rain was also heavy near Benson. About twelve miles below that point on the N M. tS A. over 800 feet of track was washed away by the flood, and fully 300 feet was washed down on the side of ths road bed. All the section hands were placed to work and crew were broug ght from Nogales this morning with timber and ties.
 The A. and s. E. also fared badly. About 400 feet of track WAS washed away and lost while more than that many feet was also washed on the side of the road bed. It was impossible for either trains to make connections at Brnson and therefore no mail from eith- CT east or west arrived today. 1t IS thought that train will be run to the terminus of the washout on either end of the N. M. & A. tonight and the mail transferred. d.-Prospecsor

BEST LN YEARS.
Wallace's Show Yesterday 'Ias in
 Every Way SatisfactorvH

Every Way Satisfactory.
 By far the lest circus seen in Prablo for many years was the Great Wallace shows yesterday. The exhibition travels on its own special GETS iu two long trains, which were built especially for them and include both open and closed cars. The The artists and management have four cars, one of which is diner. al q many people admired them as they stood on the siding yesterday.
 The mornIng parade is we'll worth seeing. The wagons have new appear ance and everything is much clt t8ner than the average circus. The five els- plants, which are the largest ever sesn here, attracted much attention. A numb CT of the cages were left open and ex- hibited some of tue animals. The bands were good, and large crowd followed the parade to the circus grounds, where 8 free exhibition was given.
 Both performances given here were most creditable to the management. The riding is exceptionally good, and the athletes are very clever. Special mention is due each one of the artists, but as they are about a half hundred lu nun Der, repetition Of mpllmen- tary adjectives would be necessary. Suf- flee 1t to say, that Mir. Wallace has pick ed out the best people in the various lines Tn the country and pleasing per formsncs IS the result.
 Mir. Wallace has good reason to be proud of his horses, as they have beer carefully selected and are we'll groomeo and cared for, the finest looking animals ever seen here with P circus. Everything is carried out quickly and well, with nc tiresome waits or long acts. All in all 1t Is model exhibition, and return visit to Pueblo will be anticipated witt pleasure, and even the large audience! of yesterday will be surpassed.-Pueblo Colo, Chieftain, July 9, 1895.

Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR, the "kING OF LIVER MEDICINES? ?" Everybody needs take a liver remedy. It is sluggish or diseased liver that impairs digestion and causes constipation, when the waste that should be carried off remains in the body and poisons the whole system. That dull, heavy feeling IS due to torpid liver. BiliOusness, Headache, Malaria and Indigestion arc all liver diseases. Keep the liver active by an occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg ulatOr and you'll get rid of these trou- bles, and give tone to the whole sys- tenn. For laxative Simmons Liver Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. 1t does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly refreshes and strengthens.

 Word comes frcm Gro Blanco of a religious craze that has struck the Mex ican residents whereabouts. The apostle O. the new fai1h is said to be man by name of F;liberto Nerdusco, n diciple of Santa Tereza, of Nogales. From what can be learned of the nsw movement it is spiritualistic in character and tables move, bean pots talk and chairs write of the next world and of the wonders of the new creed. The infection is said to be courageous and old and young are fall ing in line. One of the conditions exact ed by the new apostle of faith is an absolute severance of all old ties that bind them to their mother church. This is supposed to be effectually done by the discarding of scapulae, the breaking of crucifyes and the repatriation of saints, which strange to say has been done. The number of converts made is not known but the new faith Is said tc be rapidly spreading.
