considered worthy the name Of a true nerve
food and blood remedy by physicians
throughout the country. 1t is prescribed
by them in every state in the union to tone

SLEEP-WALKING A MYSTERY,
Scientists Are StiII Puzzled Over
Many Phases of the Psycho-
logical Phenome

"Sleep walking is netting better
understood now than formerly, but
psychologists are not thoroughly
agreed in regard to many of the
phases" observed well-known
physician to Washington Star re-
porter. One of the recent cases,
that of young man out west walk
ing ten miles to visit his father, and
of an even more recent case, that of
young lady walking three miles on
cold night IN her nightgown, with
out awakening, upsets many of the
previously accepted theories. 1t had
been thought that exposure to in
tense cold as well as intense heat
would awaken the sleep walker, but
in these cases, which are we'll anthem
ticated, it appears that this opinion,
while correct possibly in the main, is
not always so.
In my early days when attending
lectures at a medical college in Bal
timore |, with some other medical
students. witnessed one of the ia
nous sleep-walking cases that is
quoted in many of the standard
books. One night we were passing
along Lexington street where the
Lexington street market is loated.
One of our party called attention to
a moving figure clad in white on the
roof of the market building. 1t
proved to be that of a girl about II
years of age. She had lost a canary
bird the afternoon before, which was
last seen on the caves of the roof of
the market-house. Darkness came
on, however, before thorough search
for the bird could be made, and II
was given up. The girl went TO bed
and during the night left her bed
and returned to the market-house
and climbed to its roof This in it
self was not very difficult task, for
there were a series of sheds leading
to it. She walked the entire length
Of one side of the market, along the
extreme edge of the roof At every
step it seemed she would step over
the edge, and had she done so she
would likely have been killed.

San Francisco, Aug. s.-The daring
and ully-accomplished rob
berry of the Selby smelling works at
Crockett, or Vallejo junction, still
puzzles the police and no clew has
been obtained as to the whereabouts
of the S2sO,0OO gold bullion taken
from the vault
Theory OF the Police.
At one O'Clock Wednesday morning
Detective Gibson left Crockett to
bring in "a witness who. he believes.
can give information which may lead
to the detection of the robbers. II is
row the theory of the police that
some Of the plumber is secreted in the
hills back of the smelling works. \
great effort is being made TO learn
the movements of Dick Phelan. d
paroled convict, who is under suspi-
cion. y search warrant was obtained
at midnight, and sloop lying off the
Contra Costa shore was searched. but
no trace of the gold was found.
Matched in san Quentin.
There is theory that the plot was
hatched in the state prison at San
Quentin, and attention has been
called TO the fact that Sir Harry
Nestwoed Cooper, the notorious CON
Wet, went to the neighborhood Of the
smelling works Immediately after his
release from the penitentiarx.
Dick Phelan, the Snan who the de-
tectives suspect, was in prison with
Cooper. He appeared in Crockett i'm
mediately after his release and hung
around there for several days and
then disappeared.
Held n Long Conference.
Early Wednesday morning the su-
perintendent of the plant and all the
detectives on the case held a long
conference and the wori. of the day
was reviewed. The cIews obtained so
far strengthen the suspicion that
Dick Phelan, the paroled convict. may
be the man wanted.
Phelan Was released from San
Quentin about six weeks ago on pa
role. Years ago Phelan was employed
at the Selby works. Later he kept a
saloon and lodging house in Crockett.
frequented principally by SeIby's EN-
ploXes. He then became superintend-
ent of the Gold Ridge mine in Sierra
county There he was in two shoot
ing scrapes. For his connection in
the latter of these affairs he received

Was Seen Mt Crockett.
Shortly after his release from San
Quentin he was seen in Crockett by
Bob Hall, his former partner, who
talked with him. This. so far as
