ness of Preachers.

Rev. DR.. Minot j. Savage tells the follow
ing story, of which he claims not to see the
point, to illustrate the guilelessness OF mem
bers of his profession, says the New York
Tribune. A clergyman and a prosperous
ayman were one day discussing the various
aspects of the minister's occupation. Final
ly the layman said, little bit scornfully:
The trouble with you parsons is that you
are not practical"
But insist that that is exactly what we
are" replied the clergyman, warmly.
No, you're not, said the layman, firmly.

DR.. Hartman. the Famous GynscOlosiSt
and Inventor Of Pe.ru.na Offers to
Treat Women Free During the Sum.
mer Months.

America is the land of nervous
women. The great majority of nerv-
Gus women are so because they are suf-
fering from some form of female dis
ease. By far the greatest number of
female troubles are caused by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh
despair of recovery. Female trouble
is so common, so prevalent, that they
accept it as almost inevitable. The
greatest obstacle in the way of recov-
cry is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness. In female complaint,
ninety-nine cases out of one hundred
are nothing but catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh wherever located.
The following letter was recently
received:

Our Mountains.

Let the old world have its Alps and

have their Lucerne and Killarney, but
they have no Lake George, no Great

ADDED A LEAF TO CLOVER.
De Vries to the Progress of
Horticulture.

Near Amsterdam, in 1856, Prof De
Vries found a plant bearing six or
seven four-leafed clovers. This he set
out anew in his garden, where it did
not bear seeds till 1889. These he
sowed, and since then he has had new
generation each year. says scientific
exchange. Each time he chose his
seeds from one-fourth of the best
plants; that is, from those which had
the most four and five-leaved clovers
1t was the third generation, however,
in 1891, that began to be rich in the
desired form of leaves, but only with
four and five leaflets, and these only in
the adult plants. Still, during August
and September of the same year he re-
marked very few with seven leaflets
At this point he reduced his selection
Cor choosing his seeds from the best
specimens) to severe standard. That
is, he chose for progenitors only those
plants which had two-thirds of all its
leaves with four or more leaflets.
The five-leaved clovers, however, are
now the normal product. Prof. De
Vries has given its seeds for practical
experimenting purposes to a profess
sor of the Minnesota Agriculture col
lege, but as to the results, he has not
yet heard. Providing that a rich soil
and good culture be maintained, he
holds that his five-leaved clover will
keep constant, that is, it will not go
back to the threeleaved. Such being
the case, the cultivation of this new
variety should have high value over
the ordinary clover, not only as 'cow
grass" but as more energetic enrich
er of the soil.

Committed to the Asylum.

Saturday evening the official inquiry
into the metal condition of j. A. Albert
son was made. AS stated before, AL
bertson was brought in from his ranch
near the Pueblo mine. All day Satur-
day the unfortunate man was guard
ed closely in his room in the Winnie
mucca hotel, and the constant efforts
of his watchers were required to pre-
vent him from doing himself violence.
He was quiet at intervals n recog
pized those about him, but most of the
time his actions were those of a ma
MAC.
The examination was made by the
legal board, consisting of Judge S. j.
Bonnineld Jr., Clerk Dunn and Drs.
Samuels and Giroux. Albertson was
decided insane and he was taken to
Reno by Sheriff McDeid and Deputy
Sheriff Guthrie on No. 5 vest erday
morning. He gave the officers much
trouble on the journey to Reno, where
he was turned over to the care OF the
asylum authorities.

HOWARD ACQUITTED.
Jury Decides That the Mythical Mr.. johnson
Committed Cane Springs Burglary.

The case of Eugene Howard, indicted
for burglary, was resumed in the Dis
trict Court this morning, the taking of
evidence having been completed Sat
urday evening. The case was argued
by District Attorney Hood for the
State and f. X. Murphy for the de-
Tense, and was given to the jury at
noon At 3 O'Clock this afternoon the
jury returned a verdict Of not guilty
n the defendant was discharged.
The verdict of acquittal was far from
being the n generally expected, as all
the evidence that was worthy of con-
sideration pointed to the guilt of the
defendant.
The trial of Jay Harrison, charged
with the same offense as that of How
ard, was continued pending the verdict
in the later's case. The evidence
against Harrison is practically the
same as hat introduced in the Howard
case, and it may be dismissed now thai
the latter has been acquitted.

Rich Strike at Kennedy.

Al. Leach. who came in from Ken
nedy Saturday. reports that a rich
strike has been made in the Hidden
Treasure mine. In the early days OF
the Kennedy mining excitement this
mine was owned by NJ. Virgins, and
considerable rich ore was produced
and shipped. He died and the mine
changed hands until it passed to the
ownership of a San Francisco hotel
man named Waldorf. who was acct
dentally killed recently.
Several weeks ago a man named
Spencer went to work on the property
for the San Francisco owner. The re-
cent strike was made at a point on the
ledge quite a distance from the old
workings. From the top the ore made
an excellent showing and 10Y a shaft
is being sunk on the ledge and rock
taken which assays $50 in gold.
