THE MYSTERIOUS VOICE.

1t was a warm summer night and
the hour was midnight. The scene
was Madison Square Park, New York.
The policemen on the four sides OF
the rectangle were getting dull with
sleepiness. So one of them said after
ward-the man who tells the story.
Suddenly into the stiffness of the night
a shrill cry projected itself:
"Helpt Help! Murder. MURDER
The crp appeared to come from with

two policemen nearest ut hand rushed
into the park, the leather prongs on
their night sticks in place for strik-
Ing.
They're killing me. Help. Help"

The policemen made a systematic
search of the green area. ending finally

Keep away! Keep away! Don't

Slowly and warily the policemen

And there they stood for a moment.

TnOMpsON.s ISLAND roADs.

There are not many toads on this
island. probably because they cannot
breed where there are not many pools
of fresh water, and that Is the way 1t
Is here. About two and a half months
ago. Mr.. Bradley, thinking IL would
be n good thing to have some toads
down here, asked Mr.. Hart. the deputy
superintendent of the Concord reform
atory, to send MS some. Mr.. Hart got
fifty toads and put them in a box
about 2 feet long, ~ feet wide and
with u wire screening stretched over
the top. They came one night and
were taken up to the boys flower gar
dens, where thirty were let out. Every
boy was anxious to get n for his
garden. There were not enough to
go around. and SO Mr.. Bradley let
the toads choose which boy should
own them. He drew a large circle
around the box and had the boys line
mp to 1t. He then let the toads out one
by one As soon as one hoped out
to the circle, the boy in front of whom
1t was could have 1t. AS oon as q boy
got one he put 1t in his garden. The
next morning when they were looked
for only four were to be found; but
1t was soon discovered where they
went. They bury themselves in the
earth and come out to feed or when 1t
is going to rain. The remaining TWEEN
ty were let lose in the flower beds on
the lawns. Later on another box OF
seventy toads came from Mr.. w. G.
Fancher, superintendent Of the Stan
wood school at Topsfield, Mass. These
were put into the different vegetable
gardens on the farm. These animals
were got down here because they are
very useful in killing and preventing
the increase of noXious insects and
worms. -George G.. Noren in Thomp-
sons Island Beacon, printed by the
boys of the farm school in Boston

Beware of a Cough.

A cough is not a disease but a
symptom. Consumption and bron-
chitis, which are the most dangerous
and fata. diseases. have for their first
indication a persistent cough, and If
properly treated as soon as the cough
appears are easily cured. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has proven wonderfully
successful, and gained its wide reputa-

in curing the diseases which cause

Black Bass Will Drive Out Carp.

"A California exchange says: "A
few years ago, when the carp were
first introduced, it was feared that they
would soon drive the best fish Out
Of California lakes and streams.
it is now said that if the black bass are
permitted to- multiply they will soon
clear the rivers OF the carp. A Wood
lands ninrod recently caught a striped
bass and on dressing it discovered that
1t had dined on three or four young
carp.
If bass will drive out, or exterminate,
the carp, every stream in Nevada
should be stocked with bass. Carp are
hog-fish and kill the trout by eating the
spawn and young fish. They are Of
little account as food, and if the bass
will not eat the trout they should be
put into the streams to preserve them
and kill off the carp.

TONAPAH.
One of the Most Promising Camps
IN the State Today.

Frank Golden returned from a visit
to Tonapah night before last and has
nothing but words of praise for that
locality.
Mr.. Golden is very enthusiastic over
the outlook for the Esmeralda camp
and ERE iicts a most flatterlng future for
the lev town.
In conversation last evening Mr.
Golden. said in substance:
II believe Tonapah will be one of
the leading towns Of the State and that
within a short time. The prospects
that are being worked have paid HAND
somely from the grass roots. 50 to
speak, and unless all indications 60
wrong the formation Of the district is
one Of permanency. and in my opinion
1t will prove to be the richest mining
district within the confines Of the
State.
"At the present time there are
about four hundred men employed in
the camp. mostly on leases, and the
lowest grade Of ore that is being
shipped out is over one hundred dollars
per ton. Much that is being sent out
goes ever and eight times that much.
Anywhere from eight TO twelve teams
are employed daily In hauling out the
ore to Sodaville. where 1t is shipped to
the Selby Smelling Works at San
Francisco"
MIR. Golden said that James Butler
the discoverer. owned five eighths of
all the claims in that vicinity. but that
he vas leasing them TO outside parties.
and taking twenty-five per cent Of the
net result as his portion.
MIR. Golden said that the day before
he left camp Henry Cutting. formerly
Of Reno. took out three thousand dollars
on a claim that he has under lease.
Considerable development work is
being done on all the claims In the dis
trict and the most flattering results
have been obtained. In fact, 1t is
stated that every foot Of ground that is
excavated in a shaft 6x6 feet repre-
sents q valuation OF $75O.-Gazette.
