Insane on the Desert.

An unknown insane elderly woman
without a cent on her person boarded
a @. &C. train on the morning of the
10th inst with the intention OF going
to Goldfield. The conductor being
unable to collect her fare put her off
at Luning, where the people not
knowing the facts paid no attention
to her. She wandered several miles
until coming to a homesteader's
camp and attacked two children
there with the evident intention of
killing them. They escaped, however,
and reported the matter to their
parents who, with the assistance of
others tried to capture the woman,
and after a severe struggle over
powered her and took her back to
Luning. Here she was turned over
to the train ere and taken back to
Hawthorne and will probably be sent
to the state asylum for the insane.
The Walker Lake Bulletin of Sep
TENDER l6 states that Mrs. G. Brown
who was picked up by yesterdays
train on the desert eighteen miles
east of Hawthorne, appeared to be
of unsound mind and was examined
for insanity by Drs. Berry and Lewis.
She was committed to the asylum.

DOWN THE CANYON.
Two Cripple Creek Scabs No
titled to Leave.

According to the Goldfeld News
Lewis Rope and Erdly Akern, who
claimed to be from Ell Paso, took the
route down the canyon last Saturday
afteri having received notice from a
committee Of the Miners union that
their presence in the camp was very
undesirable.
Rope and Akern came in on the
stage that day and had hardly
alighted when they were recognized
as notorious Cripple Greek scabs.
This recognition resulted in their
plans being quickly changed. They
were waited upon by a committee of
the union and questioned, the result
being that they made a complete adj
mission that they had scabbed in
Cripple Creek. They were then no
tilted to leave and they lost no time
in doing so. 1t was a difficult matter
for them to get a team but they
finally secured one, paying $50 for its
use, and struck out for Tonopah only
a few hours after they landed in
Goldtield. The whole proceeding was
Accomplished quietly and no force
was used.
Rope and Akern were accompanied
by another fellow who had been work
ing here and had taken occasion to
defy the local unions and denounce
unionism. He was not given notice
to leave but was given to understand
that this was no place for those Of
his ilk and saw the force of the hint.
All three were lined up IN front of
the Miners union hall and photo
graped and their pictures were sent
by the officials of the local union to
Tonopah and all surrounding camps,
notifying them of their presence in
this section.
Scabs are not wanted in Gold6eld
and this incident will probably be Ii
notice Of warning for them to stay
away.

ore from Death Valley.

Martin Ryner and Nels Standish,
two experienced p~rospectors, passed
through Calientes on the l4th inst en-
route to Salt Lake with samples of
gold and aluminium taken from claims
located by them in August, 100 miles
from the San Pedro road in the dread
waste known as Death valley. They
had a rough trip into that fearful
district and almost persisted from
thirst before getting out of the des-
ert. They were two days absolutely
without water under a blazing sun
on account of their burros tipping
over their water barrel at night, and
when they arrived here Ryner was
nearly blind from the effects of a
sandstorm which overlook them on
their last day in the desert. They
claim to have located a five-foot ledge
Of free gold from which thelsamples
shown were taken, and show chunks
of coarse gold as large as a kernel Of
wheat all through the ore. These
samples will 60 into the thousands of
dollars and the question OF %accessi-

They buried the remains near their

O%linghouse District.

According to the Wadsworth Dis
patch f. Olinghouse has struck
thirty inches Of $40 quartz ore in the
north drift, which is an intermediate
in the raise between the upper and
lower working on the Butte. This
mine has produced about 500, 600,
and judging from indications this will
be about the best strike so far on
this property. D, NJ, Henry and
Geo. Nichols have cut the lead from
their c%rosseut tunnel on the Ora.
The lead is four feet wide and goes
$50 per ton, specimen ore occurring
frequently. The Springfield Nevada
company r taking out considerable
ore at present, which is of higher
value than an average of the past.

Some of the reasons why Goldfeld
is and always will be the best town,
it is located on higher ground and
nearer the mines, and its water sup
ply is not limited to n small spring,

PUB1Ic BAKING SHORT sIDE OF :, .''a's' .- '- MARKET.
Bull Leaders Predict 2o-cent Cotton SUn It's Merits and. are Making @a No Effort to Con-
 [ { \. trol Prices.

New Orleans, Feb. 13.-The short Sat- urday session in the cotton market was quiet, although it was not by any means featureless. It was marked principally by operations on the short side which caused a decline after an initial ad- vance on better cables from Liverpool than were expected.
 The decline at the close amounted to only four points on all active positions but even this indicated the extent of the selling f6F short account when the strength of weekly statistics was taken into consideration.
 It is now generally conceded that to n certain extent public opinion Is against any immediate advances and that the public is now being won over to the short side. The leading bulls do not manifest any alarm over this condition of affairs as the public and its speculations were the principal cause for the panicKy scenes that ensued last week. The short side, in the opinion of conservative longs. will probably find the public interest in the market as unwieldy and as danger ous as the long side found it.
 At the ring today there appeared l." be two bears to one bull and this gave a strange tone to trading as formerly there sere about nine bulls to one bear.
 As has been the cs6e for several days .ast the leading bulls kept out of the market and allowed prices to take thcIr own trend. Conservative bulls are now being listened to more than at any time this season. They predict 20 cent cottcn on it's own merits and their estimate of the crop is 10,25O,OOO bales maximum.
 It is pointed out that after such series of startling bearish factors as have pre- scented themselves a sensational bullish factor is liable to show itself at almost any time and it is claimed that if sucn a factor does come to light a panic among the recently converted shorts will follow.
 The chief feature of the market at pres ent is its gossip and any rumor throw WIS the entire exchange into heated discus sions. Thus 1t was reported Friday that Gwathmey of New York was to lead a newly organized bear pool. With almost amusing suddenness the friends of Gwathmey in the local market telegraph ed to New York to. ascertain his position and the reply was that the report was ridiculous,

CT, a strenuous fellow, who ,leved himself more than fis neighbors; who was never So happy as when standing In the glare of the lime light His motto has been: Do something; get yourself talked about, He has done something. and ev- cry morning when the American people awake it is to ask: What cratic thing has our President done now?' During the brief space ot his presidency the na- tion has passed from quiet to unrest, from conservatism to radicalism, from patriot ism to selhshness. We have a poor poli- tician where we expect a statesmen, and an unsafe man where we need a wise one.
 If the Democrats, who are now harmo- nized, nominate q man who can get and hold the elements which have forsaken the Republicans, there is no reason why they could not defeat him or any other man his party will name. The Republi- cans are aware of this and that is one cause of the growing opposition to his candidacy. They knSw that he is the cas- lest man for the Democracy to defeat. and the grafters and politicians love their jobs too well to stand by loser.

Surveyors. Locate Route Through Washington County.

Surveyors. Locate Route Through Washington County. | St. Stephens, Feb. 13.-(Special, The corps of surveyors making the preliminary survey of the route of the Memphis. and Pensacola Railroad reached St. Stephens Sunday afternoon and pitched their tents near town. They remained here only two days. going from. this point to Richardson Station.
 Captain H. R. Farrar, locating engi- heer, and w. s. Carruthers, engineer in charge, both eminent in their profession. eonversed freely as to the proposed en- terprfse. T,t,tta .iA
 Captain Farnar said they left Meridian, Miss, about two months ago, and had encountered considerable, trouble locating the line through Southwest Choctaw and Northwest. Washington counties, 'on ac- count of the rugged htlis, but had finally located feasible route, passing, about one-quarter of 8 mile from Healing Springs and about seven miles west of St. Stephens.
 They will cross the Southern Railway at Richardson Station and the Tombigbee river at Owen Bluff, where he expects to make a Junction with another surveying party working northwest from Muscogee, Fla.
 Captain Farrar stated that they had succeeded in locating a very low-grade road bed, which was what was wanted, and no grade would exceed forty feet to the mile and would average no more than thirty-five feet to the mile from Memphis to the Gulf.
 He also stated that another survey would be made through Washington County, passing between Bladon Springs and the river and following down the rive CT as near as practicable. which Will nec- esaarilv bring the line through St. Steph- ems. This survey will be made to ascers tain if a better road bed can be obtained, and if so, 1t will be adopted instead of the survey already made As soon as the junction is made with the other party the two corps will retprn to Meridian and Muscogee, respectively. and be held in readiness to make the nnal

To My Patrons and the Public:
 It gives me great pleasure to inform you that the three companies represent ed by me, viz, Liverpool and London and Globe, Phenix of Brooklyn and Com- mercial Union Assurance Co.,, of London, came through the Baltimore fire with comparatively small drafts upon their large surplus. The Phenix's assets are over T,3OO,0OO. and has a surplus of H,- 6OO,00O. and its loss amounted to about $225,0O0. The Commercial Unions assets in the United States branch alone amounts to over S4 20O.000, and It's surplus to about $1, ,400.0O and It's loss at Balti- more to about $4O0.000 The following let ter from the Liverpool and London and Globe Is self-explanatory. This company has $S5,0OO,OO0 assets, about $12,OOOOOo of which belong to the United States branch. The great strength and fair dealings of my companies have made them scores of friends the world over and must impress upon this community the value of their policy contracts. It will give me pleasure in serving the citi- gems of Montgomery in placing their risks in either of the above named companies

 Montgomery, Ala:
 Dear Sir-We have your favor of 9tb inst, and replying beg leave to say that this Company's losses in Baltimore will. from information we have on hand amount to about $1,OOO,OOO. AS has been the case heretofore, these losses will be paid, not out of the United States assets of the Company but by draft on the Home Office, maintaining the assets in this country intact. Recognizing the suf- fering that must result to a great many people from this unusual conhagration, the company has rendered to the proper authorities $10,OO0 as relief to the suf- ferers. Yours truly.

Not Above Public Criticism.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
 There is some approval of Senator Hoars proposition that the courts should publish only the decision reached by their majority, and mot add dissenting opinions, which only serve to weaken the court and undermine the opinion of the majority" This is plainly untenablo ground Such course would merely be a weak attempt to deceive the public. A court is not so sacred an institution that citizens generally have not right to know how all the members voted and what their reasons were. They have also tho right to exercise their own judgment as to whether judges are rendering de- cisions for reasons or through prejudice.
