Death From Horse Kick.

DR.. Fulton was called last Thurs
day evening to the home of Mr.. S.
Henson, two miles west and two miles
south of town, to attend to the inju-
ries of George Henson, the twelve
year-old son of the owner of the farm,
who was kicked on the head by one of
the farm horses. After learning the
gravity of the case, DR.. Fulton sum-
moned DIR. Coffman, and the two
worked until late that night, but with
little hope of successI -
/ The boy had been out with q team
cultivating corn during the afternoon
and returned to the barn in the even
ing. AS the. horses were passing
through the gate into the barnyard
he slapped one on the hip and the
animal kicked back viciously, striking
the boy on the head with one of his
hind feet. The blow felled the boy
and rendered him unconscious. He
was carried to the house and doctors
summoned. The physicians found
that the skull had been fractured at
the top of the head and the boy IS
brains were oozing from the opening
They think there must have been a
fracture at the base of the skull also,
as he bled from the ears and mouth.
All that medical science could sug.
gest was done for the boy, but he
died at O'Clock Saturday. The boy
was active and strong and his un.
timely death in so horrible manner
just as he was becoming helpful or
the farm, is very sad.
The father of the boy came here
from Iowa a year ago, buying the
Simpson farm, and his brother buy
ing farm south of town. The former
owner of the farm was an Iowa man
who came to an untimely death by tn,
accidental discharge of gun in hiI
own hands. Two tragedies in so brie
time on the same farm are most un
usual.

THE WIND

j am the wind--the wonderful
The Wind OF God ami;
And over the earth and under the stars
On my windy wings fly;
i fiutter the folds OF every flag
And out OF my parted lips ,.,
Breathes the breath that shall watt TO every
port
The home desiring ships.
This morning filed those lips with spice
From n grove in green Ceylon:
This evening the long blue fields of ice
Shall watt that fragrance on;
Last night l harried II mountain pine
On high Sierra's crest,
Tonight will lull where the soft stars
shine
The baby orioles nest.
l push and shoulder the heavy fleet
Till the snowy canvas rips;
Then-hardly she knows it-ln kisses
sweet
melt on a maiden's lips;
Today am north and today am SOUTH
And tomorrow out of the west
will gather a rose with rosy mouth,
For dim old Asia's breast.
And none can cal me an English wind,
And none wind OF France,
For from pole to pole, like human
! Irange-the lords free -lancel
They have mapped the earth and chartered
the sea,
And bound them to mans control;
But l am, the Wind, and the Wind is
free,
The Wind and the human soul.

London Chronicle: The total cost
OF our two wars in China and South
Africa up to March 81 is close on
229, 900, 900 pounds which is about six
millions more than Germany received
from France in the shape of war in
demnity. Strictly speaking, that in
demnity only amounted to five mill
lizards of francs, or two hundred mil
lions sterling; but Germany received
about twenty-three millions sterling
more from her vanquished foes in the
form OF special contribution from
the city OF Paris, special taxes in
France and interest on the chief in
demnity. Out OF this all the expenses
OF the war were repaid. Some 28, 900, =
600 pounds went to establish a pension
fund rold soldiers; 16, 600, 900 pounds
were spent on army reorganization;
about Is, 200, 900 pounds on fortresses;
s, 800, ,00e pounds on strategic railways;
while 6, 200, 900 pounds we're stored in
gold as an imperial war chest in case
of emergencies, and this immense
treasure is still lying dead in the
vaults of julius Tower in the fortress
of Spandau. But the interesting thing
is that our Boer war has cost us far
more than their final war Of uniGca-
tion cost the Germans.

to the REGISTER Office. He said the

ad., for him that he never ordered and
he suspected his boarders OF taking
this way of kicking on the board.
The paper was searched and no such
ad. found. The man said his present
cook was so mad she threatened to
leave at once. The paper was again
searched and no such ad. found. 1t
then developed that the cook had pick
ed up an old paper, found the ad.
which was the cause of her getting her
present job and jumped to the conclu
sion that it was late paper and that

SOME one signing himself "Chris-
tian Scientist" contributes two Icol-
umn article to the Mexican Herald
attempting to disprove that there is
any danger that the volcano Popocat-
apetl, above the city, may have an
eruption and destroy the city. Such
a fate was predicted years ago by
Humboldt, but Christian Scientist
says God has nothing to do with such
things Of itself and that man is re-
sponsible by reason of his evil
thoughts: Here is his conclusions,
which are interesting: The volcano of
Popocatapetl can not erupt of their
volition for they have no volition no
will, no power. Does God or man
bring about such q result? God cer-
tainly does not, for His is nature of
absolute love and goodness, and it is
impossible for Him to precipitate evil
or destruction upon his children.
Neither can man with his material
fingers do so. But, what we call NOR
tai mind 1.-THE absence of the God
thought J in man is apt to cause any
phase of evil, and 1.-THE law of earth
quakes and other like phenomena, is
human made. The mountains can do
no harm, and yet people suppose they
can. They slumber at the feet OF God
for they are his footstool. Realizing
the counter-fact that God has all
power, man rises into the realm OF the
real, and has dominion, as God in.
tended him to have, over all the earth,
Having such dominion, all things
work together for his good and never
for his evil or for his undoing.

The follow ing article is taken from
the Sentinel, published at Haniord.
California. The article is repubHshcd
20 allow the citizens Of Tonopah a
good hearty laugh on reading the
prevaricatiuns Of a couple OF five
cent people who came here aud eX-
pected to 90 into business with their
misery nickels There is not one
line in the article that is the truth !;
Mrs. Nellie Meone and her son,
Henry Henderson, who went to Tono-
pah, Nevada, few weeks ago, in
tending to establish a boarding house,
have returned hon with some knowI-
edge of that doomed locality that is
to their advantage. Mr. Henderson
says that the PLACE has been greatly
misrepresented, although there may
be some rich diggings there. At
present there are but two mines be-
ing wOrked-the Salt Lake mine and
the Tonopah mine. There are about
$50 peole in the camp. The word
Tonopah means no wood no water,
and there is no doubt that the Indian
definition is correct, as water is
hauled in barrels from distance Of
I'll miles and sells at the camp for s.
per barrel. Wood is taken in from
Soda Springs, the same distance as
the water, and is delivered at Tono-
pah for SIS or $50 a cord, and the
cords are even shorter than a Cali
fornia cord.
The town of Tonopah has nineteen
saloons and two hotels, and three
stores attend to the other demands
of the people. The winds blow like
a blizzard there, and when Hender-
son left snow was eighteen inches
deep and the thermometer was ten
degrees below zero. Mrs. Melone
concluded that the climate was not
what she was looking for, and al
though Henry had a job at good
wages with the Salt Lake people,
sharpening tools, they concluded to
cone back to Gods country and
let Touopah 20 its own way"
1t is to be hoped that these people
remain in Gods country and die
there. We have no room for them
here.

We are not conversant with the

heavy sales Of stock and acquisitions
through royalties and ore shipments
by the company, we have positive
grounds for believing it to be in a
fiourishing condition; still no vigorous
action has been taken or even out
lined regarding reduction works that

So far as anything definite or even

it behooves every stakeholder East

voice the sentiment of every business

in the one universal demand that the
present local management be per
mitted without a hindering voice or
