TOUR TO THE PACIFIC COAST.

ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO VISIT CALL
FORNIA UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROADS PERSON
sONALLY-CONDUCTED SYSTEM.
In view of the great popularity of
transcontinental travel under the Per
sonallyConducted System, as evinced
in the recent Pennsylvania Railroad
Tour to the Pacific Coast and Cana
dian Northwest, that company has de-
cided to run another tour to the Pacific
Coast, including in the itinerary visit
to the world famous Grand Canon of
Arizona, III the early Fall. The tour
will leave New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, Washington, and other sta
tiOns OH the Pennsylvania Railroad
east of Pittsburg Oh Monday, Septem-
Der %, and reach New York on the
homeward trip Tuesday, October %.
AS in former tours to California un-
der the auspices of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, a special train, composed of
the highest class of Pullman equip
ment, will be utilized during the en-
tire trip. Excellent meals will be
served in the dining cars attached to
the train during the entire journey, ex-
cept during the stops at San Francisco
and in Chicago. An observation car
will appeal to all who delight in seen
cry. Few trips afford SO great diver
sity in Natures beauties as the one
outlined below. Westward bound, the
tourists will pass through the wild
slopes of the Colorado Rockies, around
the Great Salt Lake, and over the fast
nesses of the Sierra Nevada. After
visiting all the beautiful resorts on the
sunny California slopes, the eastward
journey will be through the Arizona
desert to the Grand Canon of Arizona.
It's beauties cannot be painted in mere
words. Magnificent in coloring, awful
in its depths, it stands among the nat
ural wonders of the world. Thence
across the plains to st. Louis, and east
ward through Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and Pennsylvania, the tourists reach
their destination just thirty days after
leaving home.
The various trauscontinental line

the General Triennial Convention Of

A Bright Jury.

In 4 larceny case in Maine it was
agreed to go on with only IL men on
the jury. The trial lasted several
hours. and then the jury retired to
deliberate upon the evidence and find
a verdict. After being out four hours
the jury reported that it could not
agree, and accordingly it was dis
charged from further duty in the case,
and the prisoner was remanded to the
Jail. A little later the attorneys for the
respondent got at" one of the jury
men and asked him how the vote stood
in the jury room.
"Well," said he, I'VE balloted about
20 times, and each time there were II
votes for conviction, but at no time
could we get - votes for conviction, sc
we had to report n disagreement"

A Bit of Rowery Dialogue.

This gem of metropolitan English is
vOuched for by the New York CORE

two Bowery hoodlums the other day:
Said one as he pointed to his shiny
black trousers: "Oh. Chimmy. howcher

"All right" was the response, ''but

Western Doctor PrOmUIgates New Theory
Regarding the Troublesome Organ.

MeSIeTu DOCtOI fIOnulSdtSS NS" ADSO'!
Regarding the Troublesome Organ.
A theory was advanced by DIR. E. p.
Hershey, of Denver, at the meeting of
the Rocky Mountain Interstate Medi-
cal Association, which, it is said, will
excite great interest in the surgical
world. The doctor claims to have
found function for the vermiform ap-
pendix, which heretofore has been be-
lieved to be functionless organ. Ac-
cording to the theory the vermiform
appendix is a secretory organ, the
function of which is the lubricating of
the beginning of the large intestine.
The arguments the doctor advances in
support of his theory are very inter
esting, but other doctors claim they
are not conclusive.
CDR. Hershey's argument is a very
strong One," says one of the delegates
but it is not backed by facts. l pro
test against such a theory going out
from this meeting. 1t will excite &
great deal of comment and if we are
wrong it will do us no good"
The association refused to consider
DIR. Hershey's paper in its original
form and he was given year to inves
tigate and make report.

The disentanglement OF some bad

that was passed up to Commissioner
Stanaeld Monday, in the case Of
Duncan VS.. Roberts. Whether Dun
cuncan's rats, ate Roberts corn, or
Roberts fire burned Duncan's rats
home, in Duncan's fence, or whether
there was any corn, for the rats from
Duncan's fence TO eat In Roberts
crib. were few OF the points, that
were passed upon by the commits
sioner, aided by hysterical jury, be-
fore difference Of $500 was struck
between the value OF Roberts corn,
that had fattened the Duncan rats,
and the burned fence OF Duncan,
which Roberts had fred, in favor OF
Duncan's fence. Roberts paid the
difference, and the court adjourned,
for much needed rest.

CLAIMS GRADUATION
From Medical Institute, and
ON a Previous Visit to vi
nita had Posed as a Phys
clan Looking for New Lo-
cation.

Several months ago a well
dressed man Of pleasing address
called on Commissioner w. S.
Stanfield in this city. He in
troduced himself as +. X.
Schild, and informed Mr.. Stan
field that he was regularly
graduated physician, and was
looking for a location in which
to engage in the practice of his
profession After looking over
ne field, and discussing the
matter with Mr.. Stanfield, he
decided that this territory held
out no promise, and he ex-
pressed his intentioLof remov-
ing to Miami. Commissioners
Stanfeld had nearly forgotten
his pleasant visitor until yes
terday, when he appeared be-
fore him in the custody Of a
United States marshal, charged
with highway robbery. When
arrested he was employed in a
Miami hotel as porter.
The story as told by John
Seymour, his alleged victim,
and which the prisoner brands
as false throughout, bore such
evidence of the prisoners guilt
that Commissioner Stanfield
held him over under 81 900
bonds.
At the time of the holdup
Schild was with Seymour, and
was relieved, as was his COM
panion, of everything of value
by the footpad. The next day,
however, a $40 note that had
been taken from Seymour, was
presented for change by Schild
at a bank in Miami.
The victim, Seymour, charges
that the erstwhile physician
was a party to the plot to hold
him up. This Schild denies
and claims that he is simply the
victim of unfortunate circum-
stances in not being able to fol-
low his regular profession, and
that he has not accepted di-
ploma from the Dick Turpin
university.
