ci.u Of the company, and keeps his hearers
10 good humor with his jokes. stories and
funny songs.
Mrs. Endor delighted the audience in her
illustrated songs. The colored pictures de-
scribed in these songs are beautiful, and her
pleasing voice in the singing illustrations
made them seem realistic and charmed all
present.
The moving pictures are excellent, and
the illustrated lectures by DIR. Bigelow are
highly instructive and entertaining.
They give a change Of programme every
night, and the company will give q special
bill Sunday evening. including an illus
trated lecture on Egypt. with motion pic
lures Of the Great Desert, the Pyramids
and Sphinx. They will give their FINAL en-
tertainment in Eureka on Tuesday evening

ID. b. JACKMAN ARRESTED.

Constable John McKernan last Thursday
swore out q warrant charging ID. B. Jackman,
a colored man and an old resident of Eureka,
with selling whisky to Indians. The warrant
was issued on the testimony Of Charley Ali
son, an Indian in the employ of the Eureks
Live Stock Company, who stated that Jack
man sold him a bottle of whisky. This state
ment was corroborated by a spuaw who was
present at the time the liquor was sold the In
dian.
Jackman was arrested Thursday afternoon
and placed under $500 bonds to appear in the
Justice Court Friday morning. The required
bonds were furnished, and when the case
came up before Justice Cromer Friday morn.
ing the defendant asked for a continuance un.
til he could secure counsel. The Justice grant
ed the continuance, postponing the hear.
ing until February 10, and placing Jackman
under 81, 600 bonds. He is now in the county
Jail, having failed to secure the increased bail.
The State law has been amended whereby
the evidence of Indians is taken in cases of
this kind as a means of conviction.
The recent death Of the squaw who was
frozen to death while under the influence of
liquor has caused considerable feeling among
the Indians in this vicinity, and it is said
they are likely to ''squeal" On som others
who have been selling them whisky.

serious Condition of q. =. Mullins.


A letter received in Eureka on Thursday
from San Francisco states that G.. r. Mullins
was placed on the operating table at st.
Luke's Hospital on Tuesday. The physicians
had been unable to satisfactorily diagnose his
ailment, and an operation was decided upon
as the only means of determining the exact
cause of his illness. An ~incision was made
over the liver of sufficient size to fully expose
that organ, which upon examination was
found to be covered with numerous cancerous
growths. The outside of the stomach was also
found to be covered with these generous
growths. The physicians were all Of the opin-
ion that these cancers had commenced their
growth at least a year ago. Mr.. Mullins was
in a very weak condition on regaining con.
sciousness after the operation.
