Hoey Acquitted.

A special from Tucson to the Repub- lican of yesterday says: The case of the United States vs. Wm. Hoey, ex-col- lector of customs at Nogales, went to the jury early this afternoon, and a little over an hour later they returned verdict of not guilty of conspiring to admit Chinese to the United States. The trial lasted three days and attract ed large crowds to the courtroom.
 To-day several ladies were present, among them Mrs. Hoey, wife of the defendant, who sat beside him during arraignment by the government attor- neys of her husband. United States Attorney Frederick Nave was the first to address the jury. He was followed by Judge BleIman, one of HOey's attOr- neys. Judge Barnes and John Martin also spoke for Hoey. Judge Barnes referred to Line Rider Webb and Special Agent Dickey as the blackest villains who ever breathed the breath of life. He charged Agents McEnery and Roush with testifying simply to hold their jobs. NJ. c. McLemore con. cluded the argument for the govern ment. There was an absence of bitter ness in the arguments of both Mir. Nave and Mir. McLemOre.

The Great Dismai Swamp

Of Virginia is breeding ground of malaria germs. So is low. wet or marshy ground everywhere. These germs cause weakness, chills and fever, aches iu the bones and muscles, and may induce dangerous maladies. But Electric Bitters never fails to destroy them and cure malarial troubles. They will surely prevent typhoid. "We tried many remedies for malaria and stomach and liver troubles" writes John Charleston of Byesville, O.. 'but never found anything as good as Elec- tric Bitters." Try them. Only soc.

Fire ct Holbrook.

About ? o'clock last Sunday morning the residents of Holbrook were sud denly aroused from their peaceful slum- bers by pistol shots and cries of fire. Upon investigation it was discovered that the west end of A. NJ. Boyer's livery and feed barn was on fire. See. ing that there was no chance of saving the barn, the citizens went systemati- cally to work removing fences and out buildings from within reach of the flames, hoping to confine them to the barn alone. But the fire was not to be checked so easily and soon leaped across the alley, consuming Wetzler Bros.' warehouse and contents, consisting of large stock of Navajo blankets, to the amount of about $l,5OO.
 Wetzler Bros. estimate their loss at about 5000. They carried $500 insur- ance on their warehouse. The next building to go was the frame house oc- cupied by the Holtrook Argus. Mir. Pease succeeded in saving most of the office fixtures, with the exception of the press, which being very heavy could not be moved in the short space of time allowed. Mir. Pease's loss is about $4O0. Mir. Boyer's livery barn and it's contents were totally destroyed, repre- senling value of about $l,600. Mir. Il. I mill, outbuildings and fences. The cause of the fire is unknown.-Winslow Mail.

Good for Rheumotism

Last fall was taken with very severe attack of muscular rheumat ism, which caused me great pain and an noyance. After trying several pre- scriptions and rheumatic cures, I de- cided to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which I had seen advertised in the South Jerseyman. After two applica- tions of this remedy was much better, and after using one bottle was com pletely cured.-Sallie Harris, Salem,

Thonght He Missed a Car.

In a neighboring city lives a young
man whose name is Carr. Carr is deep
~ smitten with the charms of a young
woman who resides with her mother In
a pretty villa near Sandlake, on the
line of the Troy and New England rail-
road. He asked permission Of his In
RuIorata to call upon her at her home,
and the young woman accorded him
The privilege. Mr.. Carr reached the
villa where his Juliet resided and
pressed the electric button at the door
The ring was answered by the mother
of the young woman. The latter had
never seen the young man. I'm Mr..
Carr" he said, bowling profoundly.
"Um-er-well," was the reply which
staggered him. you may sit on the
stoop until one comes along"
Five minutes later the daughter told
her mother she expected caller and
asked who had rung the bell. She was
informed that there was young man
sitting on the stoop who had missed O
car. The daughter looked through the
blinds and saw her lover perched CHS
consolately on the steps. He was quick
" within the portals and mutual ex'
plantations followed.-Albany Press and

The Verdict of n Jury.

Nothing is more uncertain than the
action of a jury" said lawyer prom
inent in New York. II remember q
story my father told me when was
boy in Alabama The story was OF his
Satanic majesty and a plain citizen
who met one day on a narrow pathway
cut in the edge Of a cliff. On one side
there yawned a precipice; on the other
side was the solid rock. There was
only room for one to pass, and Of these
two one must lie down and let the 9TH
or walk over him.
eff you'll PROFOUND three questions
l can't answer suggested Satan, I'll
lie down and let you pass over my
body The citizen asked:
"'What is whittier than snowr
"'CottOn,' was the answer.
"'What is sweeter than sugar.
"'That's easy again--molasses.
"'What will be the next verdict rem
dered in this county by petit juryT
"Pass on your way said the devil
as he made q carpet Of himself"

cstrut From siIkworms.

Probably but a small percentage of
the fishermen who use flies strung with
fine translucent catgut are aware that
the almost unbeatable substance that
holds the hooks against the flercest
struggles of the struck nsh cOmes from
sllkworms. The principal center OF
the manufacture of this kind of cat
gut is the island Of Procida, in the bay
of Naples, but most of the silkworms
employed are raised near Tore An
nunziata, at the foot Of Vesuyius. The
caterpillars are killed just as they are
about to begin the spinning Of cocoous,
the silk glands are removed and sub
jectcd to a process of picking, which
is a secret Of the trade, and afterward
the threads are carefully drawn out
by skilled workers, mostly women. The
length of the thread varies from
foot to nearly twenty inches.

When 1t is understood that the same
amount of fuel is consumed in produc-
ing either gas or heat, it is readily seen
why one person will use four times as
much coal as another without produc-
Ing any more heat, If as much. When
feeding coal after the fire is made, only
small quantity should be fed at a
time, and that spread evenly over the
surface Of the fire, for when fresh coal
is added 1t for q time lowers the tenn
perature Of the fire box Gust as pouring
cold water into q pot Of boiling water
stops the boiling by lowering the tenn
perature) until the added coal is heated
up to the igniting point, when 1t first
begins to burn and adds its heat to the
mass. When but little coal is added,
this lowering Of the temperature WIZ
be hardly noticed, but add a large guam
tity, and 1t can be plainly seen.

Turcoman Brides.

When a Turcoman belle is to be set
tied in life, the whole tribe turns out,
and the young lady, being allowed the
choice Of horses, gallops away from
her suitOrs. She avoids those she dis
likes and seeks to throw herself in the
way Of the object Of her affections. The
moment she is caught she becomes the
wife Of her captor, who, dispensing
with further ceremony, takes her to
his tent.
The bride race is also an established
custom among the Kalmucks, and the
girls are such excellent horsewomen
that, we are told, it would be impos-
sible to catch one against her will

Boss your boss just as soon as you
can. Try it on early. There is moth

right kind of boss. If he is not, he is
not the man for you to remain with.
Leave him whenever you can, even at
present sacrifice, and find one capa-
