CORONOR'S JURY vs
 SHERLOCK HOLMES


 { The coronor's jury rendered yer dict of death from natural causes, in their investigation as to the cause of the five months infant of Indian Yaska. The autopsy performed by Dr. Gibbons showed that ruptured blood vessel in the brain was the immediate cause of the infants death, although all the in- ternal organs were badly affected with tuberculosis, and had not the vessel ruptured death was not far off.
 It is now reported that in spite of the verdict of the coroner's jury and the findings of the autopsy, a certain fe- male Sherlock Holmes, who claims a sort of proprietorship over the local tribe, is trying to show that the child 8 mother murdered it. It was first de- clded that the father murdered it, but when it was learned that Yeka left hone two hours prior, and five minutes before it's death the infant was appar- emily we'll, this theory was abandoned.
 To account for the remarkable fact of murder with the entire absence of all external marks of violence, it is to be alleged that the child's brains was beat out with a feather bed!

CRATE OF JARS BROKEN
MiCrobe Family Escapes During Re-
movaI to Other Quarters and
Can't be Iugged

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-There are at
large in Cicago sundry deadly disease
germs, in addition TO ho1des of foot
pads, sluggers and murderers. The
health department menagerie of dis
ease germs, containing some extremely
deadly specimens. has escaped from
captivity and the germs are roaming
somewhere about the city, presumably
in the ruins OF the county building
now being demolished. Daring the re-
moval of the microscopic department to
other quarters, crate of jars fell and
broke, setting free the specimens.
Among the liberated microbes are
many fine specimens of diphtheria,
hay fever, cholera morbus and deleri-
um tremens, in gelatin, and other
specimens.
Old timers in the city hall who
have lived FOR years in the dense to-
bacco smoke and various odors brought
in by Chicago's heterogeneous popu
lation, have no fear of the liberated
microbes, saying they have en-
countered daily for years every micro
organism known TO science, and many
that are not yet discovered and cata-
iogued.

On June Is, 1903, 100000 acres of
land in California were thrown onen

under the desert land act or as home
steads in ten-acre tracts. The strip
stretches from Mojave to the Colorado
river.
we wish to warn all intending set.
Slers to let this land alone. There is
good deal of talk about making the
desert blossom as the rose" Some
deserts blossom, but not this one. No
pody will ever do more for his desert
than Mother Nature has done. The
only blooming nature has brought
ABOUT there is that it's freckled bosom
blossoms with large alkali postules or
plmples, punctuated with sage brush
and cactus. This sums up the fora
OF the new promised land. The fauna
includes jack rabbits, horned toads,
ella monsters and venomous snakes
The soil is coarse gravel, and on
TOP or the coarse gravel there is q fine
alkall powder which, when the wind
plows-and the wind blows often
sweeps over the scorching and barren
land like the dreaded sandstorms Of
the Sahara, which, by the way, they
much resemble. Even far to the
southwest, across the lofty mountain
ranges, these desert sandstorms some
times sweep, reaching the favored
jewellers in southern California In the
midst of their orange groves. Ever
this distant touch of the desert winds
causes trees to wither, grass to scorch
and men and animals to suffer keenly
Over this dreadful desert the sun
moves like a ball of fire across a sky
of brass. Rarely does a cloud break
the intensity of the pitiless rays.
Those credulous persons who may
believe that this is the kind of desert
which, by irrigation, may be turned
into a garden are doomed to disap-
pointment. There is no water on. this
desert strip. The waters of the Col
Orado may be led on the lands of the
Yuma desert but that is far lower in
level than are these. Much of this
Mojave strip is at an elevation of
1000 or 5000 feet AS for artesian
water, the writer personally knows Of
one well which was bored for nearly
1000 feet, ending in igneous rock and
producing nothing but profanity.
The last hope for the settler on this
barren land would be the discovery
of the precious metals. They may ex-
list there. We do not say they can not
be found. But we know that the land
has been prospected by experienced
miners for half century. II ten
derfoot can find a gold mine where an
old California miner fails he is a
smart tenderfoot. But we doubt his
success.
We warn all eastern people not to
be deluded by false, even if well-mean-
ing, representations concerning this
strip of land between Mojave and the
Colorado river. 1t is strewn with the
skeletons of prospectors, the bones of
animals. 1t is a place of skulls

BAREFOOTED BOY LOSES
GREAT TOE IN ACCIDENT
Caught In Sprocket of Bicycle and

Alva Black, a lad of 10 years, while
riding his bicycle down Main street.
between Fifth and Sixth Streets. last
evening, sustained a crushed foot,
which was caught in the chain of the
bicycle near the rear sprocket. At the
receiving hospital it was found neces-
sary to amputate the great toe.
1t was necessary to take the machine
apart to remove the foot from the
machine. Charles Eyton took off the
big sprocket and cut the chain, and
after taking off the back wheel extri-
Gated the injured foot.
The unfortunate lad bore the ordeal
bravely, simply saying before he was
taken to the hospital, IT don't mind the
foot being hurt, but do hope won't
get the lockjaw."
1t is said he was in the habit of riding
barefooted and that his toes became
entangled with the chain as it passed
over the larger sprocket. Being unable
to stop the wheel his foot was twisted
over the big wheel and then over the
rear sprocket.

DOFFS HAT IN TRIBUTE
TO THE MISSOURI MULE
Special to The Herald.

SEDALIA. Mo-, Sept. 10,-"I take off
my hat to the Missouri mule" said for
mer Congressman w. D. Vandiver to-
day, in the course of an address at the
state fairs celebration of governors
day."
"Why, there were enough mules in
Missouri last year to have paid the
whole $15,00OOO0 originally given for the
Louisiana purchase, and then to have
paid the cost of the worlds fair re-
Gently held in st. Louis besides.
THE Missouri mule is known the
world over. His fame has spread to the
remotest corners of the globe. No ma
ton on earth dares go to war without
first asking Missouri for a sufficient
supply of mules. Battleships and 13-
inch guns are made on either side of
the Atlantic, but the Missouri mule
grows only between the Missouri river
and the borders of Kansas.
"At his best he is nineteen hands high
and weighs 1900 pounds. I take off my
hat to the Missouri mule, and stand at
a respectful distance. The only animal
with no ancestor of his own type and
no hope of posteriry of any type, he
maintains his Importance in war and
agriculture, and demands his price
wherever men struggle for supremacy,
whether in peace or war"
