Died in the Hospital.

John Cupps died in the county hos
pital last Saturday. He was brought
from his home in Plymouth two weeks
ago to be examined for insanity. The
physicians pronounced him mentally
unbalanced, caused by grave disorders
OF vital organs, which were likely to
terminate fatally in a short time.
Under these circumstances it was
thought best to allow him to remain in
the hospital, his wife being there to
nurse him. The heart and kidneys
were the seats OF disease, which worked
to fatal issue on Saturday. The re-
mains were taken to Plymouth on
Monday, for interment in the cemetery
there. Deceased had long been we'll
known and respected resident of that
locality.

Because the county government
acts provision regulating the fees of
justices of the peace and constables,
so that in townships of less than 5000
population justices shall receive not
to exceed $50 a month in criminal
cases, is not uniform in its opera
ton, as it is required to be by the
constitution, Judge Church declared
the provision void yesterday, and
gave Judgment for E. H. Tucker,
justice of the peace in Selma, against
county auditor II. E. Barnum. There
were other points raised, but this is
the base of the decision. Fresno

JAPAN AND RUSSIA
ON VERGE OF WAR

London, Oct 12-The correspondent of
the Morning Post at Chez Foo. tele-
graphing under date of October 10th,
says:
1T is stated that the japanese have
decided TO declare hostilities to-mor-
row on the expiration of their ultima
tum to Russia. The Russian fleet has
cleared from Port Arthur. 1t is re-
ported that the japanese announce the
landing of troops at Masanpho, Korea.
There are strong indications that
Germany favors hostilities on the
ground that it would enable her to ex-
tend her sphere of influence in China.
"A number of field guns were EN-
barked at Port Arthur yesterday for

able force of workmen is employed on
the Notifications.
THE cholera and the plague have
broken out among the Russians at New

The situation is unchanged. All is

This organization, which recently
celebrated its 2OOth meeting. was or
ganized December s, 1882. with s. F..
Emmors. president. and twelve charter
members, including Doctors Whitman
Cross and Richard Pearce. Senator N.
p. Hill, j. B. Grant, p. II. van Diest
and Herman Beeger.
The society has numbered among Its
| members all the chemists. metallur-
gists and engineers who have been
| foremost in the development OF the
| states mineral resources. II Is reason
able to say that, aside from the coun-
try's great railroad promoters, no 9TH
er body of men have been SO active and
influential in securing to the state It's
| advanced position. as compared with
neighboring states in all that per-
tains to mining.
Among its presidents have been S.

Its growth for several years has
been very great and it now numbers
40 members. of whom 143 reside in
the state and twenty-seven in other
states. Great Britain. Mexico. Chill,
Tasmania and British Columbia.
The society's library is the most COM
plete in chemistry. mineralogy and
geology of any in the state. and thanks
to the generosity of Gen. w. j. Pal
mer in recently binding its exchanges,
is III excellent condition.
The mineralogical and geological
collection has been lately much en-
riched by gifts and loans. and In the
spacious quarters afforded by the So
cietys new rooms in the Chamber of
Commerce building will lie OF great
utility. These rooms are open TO the
public between 10 and ~ a. m. and
l:30 and 5 p. m. daily, and those de-
string membership will be cordially re-
| ceived by the secretary.
The society proposes to reduce the
| annual subscription of members living
in the mining camps of the state to
$500 annually, and will welcome new
members who have the opportunity of
closely observing the mineralogy and
geology of lodes. And the results of
such close study may be put before the
scientific world by papers at the So
ciety's monthly meetings.
This society is closely in touch with
the whole world of science, as its ex-
change list numbers over one hundred
kindred societies distributed over Eu-
rope. Asia, Africa, Australia and

State Medical Society.

The Colorado State Medical Society
at the meeting which has just closed in
Denver, adopted the new ethical code
recently inaugurated by the American
Medical Association. This is a far
more liberal code than the old ethical
system which prevented regular prac-
titioners from holding consultation
with the so-called irregular practi-
TONERS, term which included homeo-
paths, eclectic physicians and other
men learned in science but not con-
formant to the rules of the American
Medical Association. The new code
was unanimously adopted by the coun-
Gil of the state society. which met pre-
vious to the opening of the convention
Immediately after convening the action
OF the council was ratified.
Tho society was reorganized from an
Independent body to one forming a
component part Of the American Medi-
cal Association. This was done In con-
formity with the actions Of other state
societies.

New York. Oct. 1.-The fierce storm
that has swept the New York and New

terror of those states, and has caused
| losses that will reach into the mil
lions. Ocean liners arriving at New

Atlantic. and it was with great diff
Guilty that many of them reached the
harbor. Smaller vessels have not been
able TO weather the gale, and have
been beached by the tremendous

Paterson. n j., Oct 11.-With the
waters of the Passaic river falling at
the rate on an inch an hour above the
falls. and at double that rate below
them apprehension of further great
disaster to the city from the flood has
almost disappeared, the sole question
being whether Spruce street hill, the
narrow embankment that holds the
water above the falls. can continue to
Withstand the strain until the river
recedes to its normal proportions.
AT the height of the flood this hill,
standing between the river basin above
the falls and the lower valley, was
caving rapidly into the gorge below the
fails, 1t was feared to-day that the
flood would wash away the dyke and
precipitate itself in a huge wall upon
that portion of the city lying below.
A dyke but little wider than the
Spruce street roadway stood between
the city and disaster. but tonight it
was holding firm, and the police felt
reasonably sure of its permanancy,

The court-martial was called yester-
day by Governor Peabody. after he had
conferred with several of the officers
of the guard. and after an extended
midnight interview with General Bell,
who came down from the Cripple Creek
district early yesterday morning. The
meeting was entirely secret one. and
was held about midnight at the exec
utive mansion. II evidently was de-
cided at this time that the court-mar-

General Chase when informed that
the Court-martial had been called, said
he had not been served with an official
copy of the order and declined TO dis
cuss it.
Tho charges against Colonels Gross
and Kimball are based on violation OF
the sixty-second of the articles of war.
in drawing loaded weapon on Major
Williams. The charges against Gener-
al Chase are based on the same arti-
Gle of war. and allege that General
Chase. in asking Colonel Gross for the
pay rolls. exceeded his authority.
