unable to understand one word that is spoken to him by his attendants, and his memory is gone.
 The case is the more mysterious from the fact. that thus far no one has been found who can throw any light upon the cause of his original condition. At the Receiving Hospital yesterday the unfor- tunate man passed through eighteen or twenty convulsions: to-day, however, he was entirely free from these manifesto tionS. He Is able to move about freely, and enjoys perfect use of all his limbs. He moves his jaw. yet cannot utter an intelli gible syllable, for he has apparently for gotten the use of words and seems to un- derstand absolutely nothing.
 Drs. Stratton and Horn of the hospital have exerted every effort and means to locate the trouble and cause, but they are at sea. pr. Stratton considers the cause an obscure one, and attributes the mans actions to a loss of memory of words, for Nickademus was offered a piece of paper and a pencil upon which to make some statement, but he could not understand. He was at one time well-known man about town and was formerly bookkeep- CT for Benjamin Wright.

JUDGING C0LLIES BY
 THE SC0RE-CARD SYSTEM
GOOD ATTENDANCE AT THE OAK
 LAND DOG SHOW.
Results of the Judging Not Yet Fully Known-The Special
 Prizes Given.

OAKLAND, Dec. 9-The second day of the California Collie Clubs speciality show witnessed marked improvement in the attendance, which, doubtless, was to be ascribed to desire to see the judg- ing by the score card.
 Mir. Tyler, the judge, deprecated the advisability of resorting to this method of judging.
 Tt will answer all right in a compara- lively small speciality show" hesaid, but 1t would never do in a large show. The labor entailed on the judge is enormous and the job of judging sixty-one collies to-day by the score card has fatigued me more than judging ten times that num- Der by comparison in the ring.
 Judge Tyler performed his arduous du- ties in the same efficient manner that characterized his procedure yesterday The judging was concluded, but as the score cards have to be counted and the points compared the results will not be fully known until to-day at noon. Many of Oakland's best known society people were present
 Matt Coffey, the secretary of the Sac ramento show, was assiduouS in enlisting entries for that event. The entries will close on the 23d inst. at D. m. at the secretary's office, 2503 G street, Sacra- mento. The judges are J. w. Burrell for setters and pointers and C. D. Nairns for all other classes.
