Found Dead Near Dayton. 'ss s

Yesterday afternoon the dead body
of Augustus Perkins was found about
three miles from Dayton, on the Ell
Dorado canyon road. For about year
he has been living at the Quill tool
house and keeping the roads in re pair
and while SO occupied he is thought
to have died from heart disease. The
body rolled over a bank, where it had
probably lain for three or four days,
as the fingers had been eaten away by
coyotes. He was a native of Belfast,

There Is more catarrh in this section
Of the country than all other diseases

years it was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutional disease, and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls

tempted to criminslly assault her.

brute, she succeeded ia prevent
ing him from accomplishing hi .
hellish purpose. Colson threatened er
with death if she should tell her hus-
band what he had done. The next
morning he left town to locate some
mines several miles west of here. Mr..
Gale did not return home from work un-
til late next day. when the wronged wife
told him of what had occurred. 1t is
hardly necessary to state that the hus-
band was almost distracted.
1t is known that he confided the ter
rible particulars to friends and was sd-
vised to have Colson arrested for the
crime. Colson returned yesterday af-
ternoon. Mrs. Gale, it seems, knew
when he was coming back and left her
home in the afternoon, going to where
her husband was at work, and between
80 and 6 o'clock they started home
together. On the way they net Colson
and he accompanied them to the house.
When they arrived Mrs. Gale went into
the kitchen to attend to household du-
ties, Gale and Colson going into the
dining room. Colson seated himself
and Gale almost Immediately opened
the subject of the outrage which had
been committed. He accused Colson OF

and made move toward Gale, saying,
with an Introductory oath, "I'll cut
your heart out" Just os he did so, ac.
cording to Gales story, the latter grab
bed his shotgun and fired. The concus-
sion extinguished the lamp in the room,
and, thinking that Colson was coming
for him, Gale fired the second barrel.
Gale and his wife Immediately left the
where he gave himself up to the Sheriff.
Last night Justice Rougon impanelled
a jury, which viewed the body at the
house, and this morning the taking OF
testimony in the inquest was begun.
Drs. Hanson and Samuels testified to
the nature of the wounds about as here
in stated. This afternoon Mrs. Gale
was put on the stand and told her story
behind closed doors. In the main it
WAS about as related above.
Gales preliminary examination has
not yet been set. but there is hardly a
doubt that when il is held he will be
discharged. Public sympathy is with
him in believing that he took the only
course possible under the circumstances.
He has retained w. 5. Bonnitield as his
attorney, and his brother, ID. K. Gale,
will probably also come here from Santa
Rosa and represent him in whatever ie-
gal proceedings there may be.
Colson was about 10 years of age. The
only relative OF which any thing is
known is an uncle who rs u caLGlenIan

Did He Lie?

Almost month ago Judge Irwin, U. s. Commissioner at and for Douglas, told Judge Brown that he would com ply with the law (which states that com missioners shall reside at the place des- ignated in their appointments) and be- come resident of Douglas. He said he would do this immediately, and he has not done it.
 What did Judge Irwin mean when he promised to become a resident of Douglas? Does he think that he is fool ing anybody? How can man of his age and intelligence afford to Haunt his broken promises in the face of this community day after day?
 If this man Irwin still refuses to make good his promise, justice to the citizens of Douglas demands that he be asked to resign and man be ap- pointed in his stead who will at least be truthful.

Hose Co. No. I.

At least one branch of the Douglas Fire Department is active and aggres- siye. Hose Company No. l held a meeting at their headquarters last Fri day evening. The town council was invited to attend this meeting, but, we suppose because of the stormy weather, only few were there.
 The boys had prepared to have good time. Sandwiches, coffee and cigars had been provided and everybody had been previously notified to come load ed with good story. It was happy time.
 Hose company No. now numbers 24 active members. Victor Spaulding is foreman of the company. Regular meetings are held on the first and third Fridays of each month, at which mat ters pertaining to the work in hand are discussed. The members of the con- pany are young men, strong and active. It is an organization of which the city may we'll feel proud.
