The murmur Of distant waterfall
the pattter of raindrops on the roof,
and other rhythmic vibrations, produce
a soothing effect upon the nervous CEN

tired workman who. sitting down to
rest a moment on railway cross-tiG
was lulled into Inconsistencies by the
vibrations of an approaching train.
and only awakened many hours after
ward when he found that his left arm
had fallen over the rail and been crush

Il is concluded that the vibrations must
be uniform. rhythmic and steadily in
creasing in force, and that a suitable
metallic operating table with vibrating
wheels should give harmless anaos-
thesia as profound as that from chic

JOSE DOLORES SALAZAR ACQUITTED.
He Had Been Accused Of Branding Thir-
teen Year Old Boy.

Jose Dolores Salazar, prominent
sheep owner and rancher, whose nome
is in Rio Arriba county, charged with
maliciously disfiguring 13-year-old
bow on the hands and face with hea-
ted branding iron, and who was on
trial in the district court of Bernalillo
county, was acquitted this morning.
According to the opening statements
of the district attorney to the jury,
Telesfor Gallegos, a boy Ii years, ana
one possessing the usual standard of
Intelligence, was employed on the
ranch of the defendant as chore boy,
and for his services the wealthy ran
cher agreed to pay him the sum OF "
per month and board. On May 15, l9oo
Salazar started branding his sheep and
the little boy was assigned to the
work of keeping the fire and carrying
the branding irons to and from the
fire. At one time when Salazar was
holding down a sheep waiting for the
bow to bring him brand, the little
fellow stumbled over rock and scar
ed the animal from the grasp of his
owner. Salazar lost control of his
temper, it is said, and throwing the
boy down, applied the heated branding
iron to both his hands and the left
cheek of his face. The boy then ex-
pressed his wish to go home, but Sala-
zar would not release him until the
burns on his hands and face had heal
ed. A month after when the boy went
home he told his mother of the occur
renee whereupon warrant for the ar
rest Of Salazar was issued. The de-
fendant was then placed under slOc
bail to await trial. The rancher de-
clared his innocence Of the crime, and
claimed that the little boy fell on the
brands and thus sustained the marks
which are visible on his face and
hands.

THE DOYLE-BURNS CASE
An Amended Petition Which Game as a
Surprise to the Defense.

Council Bluffs, Ia. Oct. 9.-When the
Doyle Burns mining case came Up again
this morning, James Doyle, the plain
tiff, was put on the stand. The testi-
mony had to do with the relations be-
tween himself and Burns prior to the
time of the alleged contract between
them. This testimony was heard in or
der that the court may decide whether
or not this contract, as shown in the
pleading, comes within the statute of
fraud. Upon this evidence will depend
whether verdict will be ordered for
the defendant, or whether the plaintiff
will be directed to file an amended petit
tion.
Shortly after Doyle resumed his tes-
timony, his attorneys stopped him
short and filed an amended petition in
which the plaintiff alleges that the
contract between himself and Burns
was made for the purpose of prospect
ing and locating claims. He says the
agreement affected only those claims
and title to which notice had been
completed and title to all the claims
involved in the suit, perfected under
and by virtue of this agreement. The
new pleading came as a surprise to the
defense and counsel asked for a con-
tinuance until this afternoon.

GENERAL MERRIAM'S
ANNUAL REPORT
It Is Given to Details of Minor Troubles
With Various Tribes Of Indians in
His Department.
CERTAIN RECOMMENDATIONS
ARE MADE

Washington, D. c., Oct. 9.-The an
nual report of Brigadier General H. c..
Merriam, commanding the department
of Colorado, is devoted almost entirely
to a recital of small Indian troubles in
that department during the fiscal year.
Only once were the troops called out
on that account, which was by the
Uintah and Ouray agencies in Decem-
ber, 1900, growing out of the intrus-
ion of white sheep herders upon In
dian landsl On another occasion the
military authorities were required to
look into the complaints Of the Arapa-
hoe Indians near Fort Washalzie. AS
a result Of this investigation, General
Merriam recommended that the In
dians be allowed to continue the sun
dance, divested of it's barbarous fea-
lures, and that some changes be made
in the issue of rations and the supply
of seed grain.
