Bloom implicated in the cattle steals for
which he is arrested, says that Bloom is a
liar Of the first class and that he is now a
fugitive from justice, having jumped his

county, where he was arrested by Chief
Brennan last Sunday for stealing cattle from
the Smith & Sherman ranch. Rothwell de-
MES all Of Blooms statements regarding

falsehoods. Mr.. Rothwell says that Bloom

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. S.-The trial of
Frank Simpson and Harrison Fuller, colored,
charged with having outraged Mrs. Pomeroy,
a widow, and her 6-year-old daughter in this
county last August, was to have. occurred
here today and for this purpose the two ne
groes were brought in on the noon train from
Nashville, where the sheriff had placed
them for safe keeping, but they were met
by a mob of some 500 men, who at once
proceeded to administer the law of Judge
Lynch by %suspending the two negroes to a
railroad trestle about a mile from town.
When this was done, at a signal from the
leader, the mob fired a volley or some 200
foratlng their bodies, after which they
quietly dispersed. Simpson confessed his
guilt before he was hanged, while Fuller
maintained that he was innocent until the
last. The mob made no attempt at disguise.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Jan. S,-(Special.)-
The physicians of the city are on the ram
page after the Board of County Commission
ers. Yesterday the new board organized and
at once made DR.. T. Y. Stevenson county
physician. DR.. Stevenson does not belong Ia
the county medical association, which com
prises all the doctors of the old school; and
nearly every physician In the city signed a
petition to the board protesting against the
appointment. The commissioners paid no at
tention to the protest and the doctors are
very angry. They called in a body on Com
miss ioner Emerson. whom they charge with
perpetrating the action, and solemnly de-
clared that they would defeat his election.
Another action of the board has created con-
siderable comment among the politicians.
Though a majority of the members are re-
publicans. and though for years the ofic'al
printing has gone exclusively 10 republican

The Engineering and Mining Jour
nal has several times referred to the
very remarkable increase in the con-
sumption of copper in Europe this
year, as shown by the continued large
exports from this country which have
been absorbed without dihiulty.
Messrs. James Lewis & Sons, excell-
ent authorities In the copper trade,
estimate from the statistics that for
the three-quarters of the present year
which have already passed the guam
tity Of fine copper which has been
consumed in Great Britain, Germany
and France has been greater by o.
800 long tons than in 1865 re-
markable showing, the gain this year
being 1876 per cent. over last. The
increased consumption is due to great
or activity in manufacturing, espoci-
ally in the lines electrical wsrk and
war material both requiring large
quantities of copper.

Discusses it.

Prof. Joseph Edward Stubs, Presi-
dent of the Nevada State University
at Reno, arrived in this city Saturday,
says the Cleveland, Ohio, Plain
Dealer, and registered at the Forest

eight years President of the Baldwin

connection with that institution two
years ago last August and went to
accept the commission with the Ne
vada University.
In speaking of the political stu
alton in Nevada he said that while
some people IN the East arc at times
disposed to depreciate and ridicule
the politics of Nevada ard its neigh
boting States they are making seri-
GUS mistake. He said Nevada had
the purest election laws of any State
in the country. Of Senator John p.
Jones he said that the people of Ne
vada would re-elect him. "Senator
Jones is ono of the most logical and
practical men in the country" said
p of. Stubbs.
Yes erday Pref. Stubs went to
Rerea where he spent the day with
President Warner of the Baldwin
University. He left his home i'll
Reno on Nov. 3, after casting his bal
lot, and since then has visited many
If the Eastern institutions and also
attended week session of the Land
Grant Col eye Association in Wash

One of the most remarkable pro-
ducts of Nevada is species of wood
known as mountain mahogany, which
when dry, is .aa hard as lockwood,
very fine grained, red in color, and of
very high specific gravity. 1t has
been used for boxes for shafting, and,
in soms instances, for slides and dies
in quartz batteries. 1t burns with a
blaze as long lasting as ordinary wood
but after going through what appears
to be regular combustion it is found
almost unchanged in form, being con-

Another Gold Saving Apparatus.

The Genoa Courier says that F. G..
Everett of Smith valley has been ex-
perimenting of the west fork of the
Carson river with q new continuance
for saving fine gold. 1t is said to be
a new style sluice box which gobbles
up every particle of gold thrown into
it. All the miner has to do when he
desires to cleanup is to sweep the
precious metal up with brush, no
quicksilver being used. The box is a
simple affair, costing $50 laid down
here. It comes from San Francisco.
Mr.. Everett used it fourteen days on
the Carson river and cleaned up So so
per day. He is satisfied that there
are places on the stream where one
man with this continuance can wash
out from SIS to $50 per day. He in.
tends to put in several of these boxes
and begin operations ON large scale
in the spring. He expects to see a
boom in placer mining on the Carson
river next season.
