Blooms Side Of tho Case.

DlUoSu ci0C VI S0U NoScs
On the day Commissioner Weiss
made the assault upon Editor
Bloom the followin !; paragraph sp-
pearsd in the Daily Enquirer:
This morning while the editor OF this
paper was at Weiss & Freeman's store,
August J. Weiss called 10 him saying he
wished to see him. The editor thinking
Weiss had business matter he wished
to talk about followed Weiss through
the store and out the back door. As the
editor pulled tho door shut behind him
Weiss struck him Unexpectedly and
without warning, dazed him 30 that he
fell to the ground. When Weiss had fin
ished the editor was sight to behold.
All that he remembers at this time is
that Weiss enjoined HIM never to men,
tion his name again.
And in the Wednesdays issue
of the Enquirer Editor Bloom pub
fishes, over his own signature in
reply to the Monte Vista Graphic.
the following additional statement:
Bloom did not seek Weiss at his store
or any other place. When Weiss chilled
to Bloom he was in another part OF the
store waiting for Mr.. Freeman to return
from breakfast, and Mt the time was talk.
ing to julius Weiss Responding to tho
call, Weiss said TO Bloom n want to sec
YOU minute" and started for the rear
OF the store, Bloom following. Weiss
stepped out first and us Bloom pulled
the door shut Weiss struck him q blow
unexpectedly and without notice which
dazed him and no fell TO the ground. AZ
tor taking such advantage, and while
Bloom WAS wholly unable TO protect him
sell, Weiss continued his assault by kick
ing him about the head. There was not
word said to Weiss at any time. Bloom
was not carried home in a wagon or in
anything else. There has been no talk
OF arrestlng Weiss, the sheriff was not
notified, neither was the district attor-
ney, though both the sheriff and the
district attorney were here Tuesday in
response to kilograms sent with refer
encc to the burning OF the Gibbs hay
stack. So far as the editor OF the En-
quirer knows and is concerned there
will be no arrest. As to the facts where
in his name is mentioned julius Weiss
will cosroborate this statement. Any
statement that Bloom said word to
Weiss is absolutely untrue.
As TO whether "public sentiment fully
sustnins Weiss in the puuishm ment admin
istered," we do not know and We care
less. "Pubic sentiment" has no terrors
for the hummer. and cuts no ice Mt this
shop. Tho old policy OF hewing to tho
line, letting tho chips full whero they
may, will be adhered to in the future Us
in the past-only more so.

Exhibitions of brutal courage do
not signify valor of the highest Or

denote moral cowardice.
Knock downs do not settle any

Khartoum, the latter now being in

Khartoum, the latter now being in
ruins.
The accounts of the battle, says the
Chicago Record, tell the old story OF
gallant but unavailing bravery on the
part of the men of the desert led by
their brave emirs and the scientific
and terrible slaughter in their ranks
caused by the MaHim-Nordenfeld bat
teries and the superior arms and dis
cipline of the invading army. The
.Anglo-Egyptians lost about 500 men
killed and wounded, an evidence, under
the circumstances, of the heroic
bravery of the assault upon its lines
by the cavalry and infantry under the
black flag of the khalifa. AS was to
be expected, the latter was outgen-
eraled at every point and the sirdar's
army, protected and supported by gum
boats. was practically inyincible
The expedition which has thus re-
deemed the prestige of the British
arms in the Soudan started two years
ago. and its advance, considering the
distance and the difficulties in pro-
visionlng and transporting the army,
has been comparatively rapid. Africa
is a land of enormous distances, and
the care with which each progressive
step was taken showed the determina-
ton of the invaders to make no mis-
take this time. To the forethought and
ability of Lord Cromer in financing
and aiding the army and to the bril-
liant military genius of the sirdar the
success of the expedition is chiefly
cue. England, as result, again holds
her head erect in Africa, and it is sig
nifcant that Germany and Italy have
been prompt to congratulate her on
remarkable victory. The power of
the dervishes is broken and this time
the English flag will remain in Khar-
toum.

bodies from corruption. He simply

poses the body may be made 10 resume
it's primary freshness, but if the bath
treatment is sufficiently indulged in
the subject attains the density and
consistency of marble and gives forth
a metallic ring when touched with
metal. Though the sole intention of
the inventor was to preserve subjects

that his process may supersede re-
frigeration in cases of long transit of
