William Wardjohn, labor organizer
sees an exceptional mining community
on Georges Creek, as shown i'll letter
written and published some time ago:
| may say that since coming into this
field the 18th of last April, have had some
new experiences and have come in touch
with another phase of human character
which To me is a source of wonder and deep
thought, for here is a community of men,
intelligent and educated to Il very high de
gree. If you talk politics they can certainly
hold their own. for they all take great in
tcrest in political matters from a county,
State and NATIONAL standpoint
In all kinds of sport they are we'll to the
'front.' in dancing and twirIiuE they are
certainly past masters, for they have cdu-
Gated the opposite parts of their anatomy to
their heads to such an extent that in each
of the dozen or so of dancing halls along
Georges Creek you will find fifty or a
hundred young couples tripping the fan
tastc toe every night until the small hours
of the morning.
Sobriety is a very marked feature and
drunkenness is discountcnanced and not
tolerated, especially ON the streets
Music Is thoroughly understood and
practiced, both vocal and instrumental
especially the formerD and to Il Welsh
man, like myself this feature is Il very
pleasing one.
Religion is also well represented, for the
churches are full and prOSpcrIntr and taken

Speaking of what newspaper does
for IA community. United States Senator
David Davis, of Illinois, made an adj
dress that remains ever green i'll the
memories of newspaper men. He said :
Every wear every good local paper gives
from 800 To 1000 free lines for the benefit of
the community in which it is located No
other agency can or will do this The edi-
tor i'll proportion to his means does more
for his own town than any other man. He
ought to be supported not because YOU
happen to like him or admire his writing,
but because a local paper is the best invest
ment community can make. 1t may not
he crowded with great thought but tinan-
cially it is of more benefit than both
preacher and teacher. To-day editors do
more for less pay than any man on earth
Patronizc your home paper, not as charity,
but as an investment.

A Good Suggestion.

Pay no attention to petitions against
the new road law Give it test first
The road commissioners have much less
money to do with than was spent f, +
merly, but they are spending it on the
roads instead of paying political heelers.
This is why heelers and some politicians
are opposing it. People who want the
money spent on the roads are not sign
ing the petitions that are being clrcu-
lated. Some people will sign any old
petition that is handed to them Their
petition means very lttle.-Queen City

Attack the Theory
OF Natural Cause
With VigOr.

HONOLULU, March 17.-Edmund
Shorey, chemist of the United States
agricultural station, and Drs. Wood,
Murray and Humphries have signed
statement replying to Professor Jor-
dan and Timothy Hopkins, who re-
Gently announced their conclusions
that the death of Mrs. Stanford was
due to. natural causes.
They characterize the statement OF
these gentlemen as astonishing, and
reiterate their finding that strychnine
was the cause of death. They say
that the publication of the Jordan
Hopkins opinion makes it incumbent
upon them to reply, and they give the
following reasons why the death must
have resulted from strychnine poison
ing:
'First-Mrs. Stanford died during
characteristic strychnine convulsioa,
which was seen by Drs. Humphries
and Murray
"Second-There was post mortem
rigidity. Identical with that peculiar
to cases of this class of poisoning.
''Third-The postmortem examina-
ton revealed no other cause of death
from any affection of the stomach or
inteStines. They contained no undi-
gested food and We're in a healthy
condition.
"F'ourth-The post mortem examin-
alton confirmed in every respect the
evidences of authenticated cases of
strychnine poisoning, and these. conf
bined with the fact that strychnine
was found in the bicarbonate of soda
which was used by the deceased, fur
nish a chain of evidence that will
withstand the fiercest assaults
Continuing, the statement goes on
to discuss the testimony of Miss Ber-
ner, Mrs. Stanford's secretary; of
May Hunt, her maid, and that of Drs.
Humphries and Murray. 1t quotes
medical authorities regarding the
symptoms of poisoning by strychnine,
and reaffirms the positive opinion that
strychnine poisoning caused The
death.

HEAVY SURF
DOES DAMAGE

SAN DIEGO, March 17.-The un-
precedented surf during the last few
days has caused considerable damage
to property on the ocean front of Cor
onado. The waves made serious en-
croachments on the fine boulevard
leading from the hotel northward, and
portions of the roadway were washed
out. The owners of some of the hand
some cottages nearest the ocean were
concerned during the height of the
storm and preparations were made to
move the residences farther back. All
danger is now past, the sea having
gone down.
The damage to the boulevard can
not well be estimated, but it will run
well into the thousands. The great
hotel was never in danger 1t is well
protected by breakwater, but as an
additional safeguard many thousands
of bags of sand have been used to
strengthen the approaches from the
sea.

SAILORS TELL
WEIRD STORY
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, March 17.-Sailors
from the Spanish brig Auton arrived
lrere tonight, telling a story of how
the brig was driven ashore on one Of
theS Bahama Islands on February 10.
Swarms of natives boarded the vessel,
seized and bolnd the captain and
crew and took from the vessel every
thing that was movable.
First Mate Soil said: For sixteen
days we were kept prisoners The ma
tives frequently threatened to murder
Us and told the captain that unless he
signed a paper asserting that he and
the rest of us had been rescued by the
natives and had been kindly treated
they would kill him and all of the
crew. The captain held out until we
were almost starved and then signed.
The natives then put US into a rattle
trap of a canoe and set us adrift. We
finally managed to reach the island Of
Inagua, thirty miles distant"

GIBSON AND CLEARY BUSY.
New Strychnine Lead Fails to Ma
terialize, Like All Others.

Detective Ed Gibson of the Police
Department and Detective Cleary of
thu Morse agency are still tracing
down suggestions that come to them in
letters that ire received by Captain
Burnett every DAY as to possible clews
in the Stanford mystery. No import
ant developments have resulted thus
far.
Yesterday an anonymous letter
stated that the poison with which Mrs.
Stanford was poisoned had been pur-
chased at Mayhew's drug store on
Fourth street by some member of Mrs.
Stanford's household. There was a
furry of excitement for while among
the detectives, but investigation at the
store revealed the fact that no strych-
nine had been sold there for over a
year.
Every drug store has now been can
vassed in San Francisco, Oakland Ala
media, Berkeley, San Jose, Palo Alto
and other surrounding cities and
towns, in fact every place in this part
of the State where poison might have
been purchased by either Mrs. STAN
ford or by members of her household
or anybody who might be connected
with the case. The painstaking work
has been without result.
Mrs Stanford had travelled much
with her household, however, and the
strychnine may have been bought in a
far distant part of the world, the more
likely so If deep plot was conc6cted.
