agreed TO allow it a differential of ~ cents

a differential of 2 cents below the rates
granted the car ferry company. Every
body concerned appears to be satisfied with
the arrangements, and the ail-rafl rates

People of Impaired Minds.

An insanity commission composed of Drs.
T. E. Courtney and f. J. Brennan, with
Justices Hay and Lockman, yesterday de-
clared William McEwing fit subject for
treatment at the Central Hospital for the
Insane. About three weeks ago McEwing
began talking incoherently and made state
ments that members of the Typographical
Union in the city were trying to injure
him. He has shown inclination to wander
away from home and it has been neces-
sary to keep a constant watch over him.
He is sixty-five years old, married, a prin-
ter by trade. and has three children the
Youngest three years old. His home is at
166 Buchanan street.
Amanda Miller, stepdaughter OF Richard
B. Rogers; residing al the corner of Seven
teenth and jackson streets, was also de-
clared insane. She is thirty-eight years of
age, is widow and has one child living.
She is not violent or demonstrative, but
simply wanders about the grounds sur
rounding her stepfather's home aimlessly
and listlessly, insisting that she is always
in the presence of the Infinite. Drs. r. o.
MacAIexander and William Christian with
Justices Habick and Walpole, composed the
commission which inquired into her case.

"HIGH CARD DICKS" CLAIM.
He Lifted ToIand's Valuable Stud to
.PrOtect'' Himself.

The trial of Richard Taylor alias High
Card Dick was continued in the Criminal
Court yesterday. All the evidence was
heard by the court, and the continuance
was simply on the argument. The trial of
John Sheridan was then begun before a
jury and lasted during the entire day. Tay-
lor was On the stand during the greater
part of the afternoon. He told of his ac-
quaintance with Sheridan, which extended
over period of seven or eight years. They
met at st. Paul when Sheridan was clerk
in the Brunswick Hotel, and several times
afterward at race courses, Taylor being
jockey and Sheridan being employed by
bookmakers. They met in this city, Taylor
said, on the day he had lost $500, and Sheri-
dan had "staked'' him. Taylor repeated
the account of the meeting with Toland in
the rear of Irons .1evee'' saloon and of
the loss and finding Of the charm. He said
when the charm was found by Sheridan,
Toland declared that he had been robbed,
and this offended woods and he struck
Toland. Then Taylor put his arms around
Toland and removed his $3.50 stud from the
shirt front
Card Dick Il knew i If he should lose It
after the trouble over the charm that sus-
picion would point to me, and as he was
drunk I thought I would place it in re-
sponsible hands. l gave it to the cashier
in the restaurant"
The witnesses agree that the stud was
turned over to Dick Stegemeier, but a point
has been raised by the prosecution as to
the time and the motive. Taylor claims
that it was Immediately after he took it
and his motive was seif-protection. Other
witnesses think he did not give the stud to
the clerk until after Toland had telephoned
for the police. The State proceeds on the
theory that the story of taking it for pro-
lection was after thought.
The case went to the jury late yesterday
evening, and a verdict may be expected
Woods has not been set for trial.

Nevada Gold.

Dan De guile in the Engineering
and Mining Journal says:
An astonishing amount of gold is
now being found in Nevada, hereto
fore looked upon as being almost
wholly silver producing. The pro
duction Of gold is now several thOus-
and dollars greater than u prOduc-
ton of silver. Next season Nevada
will be heard from in gold prOduc-
ton. Even at this time some good
discoveries are being made. Some of
these discoveries, in the Southern
part of the STATE, are being kept secret
but must soon become known through
their yield Of gold, From one OF the
"secret firds" gold to the value Of
nearly $4,000 was sold iu Salt Lake
a short time ago. The men who sold
the gold said they had eXtrac,e ID the
gold bullion in a crude hammer and
claimed to discovered a region rivil-
ing Cripple Cheek, but refuse to give
particulars regarding it until after
January 1896. Through men work
ing about Disaster Peak, we have had
rumors for two or three months Of
men at work in secret mines in the
Southern part Of the State in the di-
rection of Death Valley. One Of these
mines is reported to be in the mount
aims 100 miles West Of Hike, Doubt
less all these new discoveries will be
shown up next Spring or before.
There are still thousands Of square
miles in Nevada about which little is
known. I think the tide of mining
developments and speculation will
turn Nevadaward next Summer.
