HARTFORD'S MISSING MUTE,
Sarah Freeman Was Seen in Maine {
 Week Ago.

Boston, Aug. 26,-A special dispatch to the Record from Rockland says that Sarah Freeman, the missing mute of Hartford, Conn.,, was in that town last Friday, where she saw the members of the families of C. E. Gibbs and his brother. She claimed to be looking for Maud Gibbs, who was a classmate of the Freeman woman at an institution for mutes in New York city.
 She acknowledged that her name was Sarah Freeman, and on learning that the young lady for whom she was look ing was in Kingston, N. H., she left apparently for that place. Mrs. Gibbs, however, does not believe that Miss Freeman went to Kingston and it is also stated that Miss Freeman is said to have been seen in Rockland last evening"

Praise For Silver Republicans.

William J. Bryan was asked to
give bis opinion on the address is
sued by the silver Republicans, and
in response said;
II believe that they are right in
continuing separate organization
as silver Republicans. They were
among the most effective supporters
of bimetallism during the campaign,
and since the election they have
stood mistaken and undismayed.
They do not consider themselves
Democrats and Populists, and since
they cannot affiliate with the Re-
publican party while it stands for
q gold standard. they have wisely
decided to complete an organization
and hold their forces together. In
accepting the nomination of the
National Silver party stated that
We did not insist upon the silver
Republicans becoming Democrats,
but that We accepted their support
With the understanding that the
same patriotism which directed
hem in. 1895 would be present to

Nevada State Journal, Feb. 26.1
An old-fashioned coach and six
white horses appeared in Carson
yesterday the ribbons being handled
by one of the old time jehus. A ban
ner with the strange device "Fitz-
simmons Headquarters" foated
from the deck Of the conveyance.
Kodak and camera manipulators
wore out in force to get shots ut the
rig, and doubtless the metropolitan
dailies will in a day or two be illus.
trated with cuts of the coaches in
several different positions.
Fiizsimmons is very exclusive
and there is considerable grumbling
at the GOODNESS exhibited by him to
newspapers and curiosity seekers.
Corbett, on the other hand, liz quite
affable and does not hesitate to- an
swer any reasonable question con-
corning the coming mill, and also
appears on the street now and then
for the edification of the general
public. Corbett very generously
rendered his sympathy to Martin
Julian on account of the death Of
his mother, and also to Fitzsim-
mons, who is son-in-law of the
deceased lady, and offered to con-
sent to a postponement of the fight
if it was 90 desired.
The telegraph company is arrang-
ing matters, and as the business
more operators are arriv.
ing and put to work. It is expected
to have a force of Is or 90 men on
as the day of the fight approaches.
Additions are arriving daily to
the corps of trainers of both men.
and the principals keep them all
busy in the several hours Of work
that seem Il necessity each day.

The alien bill, about which 81
much has been said and written, has
At Last become a law by the Gov

is generally misunderstood. In
substance it prohibits "any COM

one. 1t was aimed at the mine
owners in the Ceur d 'Alene country,

the north there are a large number
of aliens employed by the mining
companies, and it was this class Of
employment that the bill aims to
reach. The bill has been pro.
unconstitutional by every
lawyer who has read it, and the
Governor himself said be doubted
its constitutionality but he desired
the matter settled in the courts, as
it was an annoying and perplexing
