UNBROKEh sLUMBER
 0f CHARLES NELSON
FIFTY-SIx HOURS MORE OF
 SLEEP LAST NIGHT.
Further Evidence That He is Victim
 of African lethargy.

When the sheriffs office was last heard from Charles Nelson the som fiolent Swede was still sleeping. His heavy slamber had been continuous for fifty-six hours. There had been a break of only three hours between this and his previous forty hour nap.
 Another microscopic examination of his blood was made yesterday evening by Dr. Monical resulting in the discov- cry of other specimens of trypanosoma gambiense. strengthening his belief that Nelson is victim of genuine African lethargy. His cancellation was more marked yesterday and that is one of the symptoms of the second and last stage of the disease.
 An effort was made yesterday to learn something of the past life of Nel- son. The correspondent of The Repub- lican at Tempe was unable to com municate with Neils Peterson for whom Nelson had worked but he talk ed with Mrs. Peterson who said that she knew very little of his past life. He had come to this country from Texas and he has sister living some where in Illinois.
 Mrs. Peterson said that she had nev- CT heard Nelson speak Of having been a sailor or of having lived in Africa. A fellow employe of Nelson knew as little about him.
 Another light shed on the strange case yesterday was an indirect one and it was furnished by Thomas Murphy a prisoner who had been brought over from Tempe. He wanted to see the sleeping man for he had resided fin Central Africa for a time and had seen many victims of the sleeping sickness. He made an examination of Nelson and at the conclusion of it he said that his appearance was similar to that of other victims he had seen.
 Another effort was made in the afternoon to awaken the sleeping man but like all the others resulted in failure. Dr. Hughes held his eyelids open and inserted a small brush into his nostrils as far as possible but he could produce nothing more than a faint twitching of the eyelids.
 A couple of physicians have taken issue with the belief of Dr. Monicai that the man is suffering of the sleep ing sickness though neither has made an examination of him and it was not stated that either had ever seen a case of that malady. One of them is quoted as having said that Nelson is in a cataleptic state. But in his case every symptom of catalepsy laid down by the books is missing. One authority de- scribed catalepsy as follows: "A con-
 
 sciousness in which the patient vol untarily assumes. or may be caused to assume. an attitude which he retained for several minutes. It occurs in hys
 teria or under the influence of hyp

DEFENDANT NOT LIABLE
 IN PETERS DAMAGE. SUIT
Growing Out of Destructive Fire at
 Mesa Last Summer.

The case of Ernest CrismOn of Mesa against A. J. Peters. suit for damages growing out of the destruction Of the property of the plaintiff by fire ori- ginating in the hay warehouse of the defendant at Mesa last summer. was tried before Judge Kent yesterday and the defendant was given judgment on the testimony of the plaintiff. which the court held failed to show the legal liability of the defendant.
 Carelessness had been alleged and 1t was further alleged that employees Of the plaintiff had been in the habit d going about the warehouse drunk and smoking cigarettes. The evidence on this point, however, related to ciga- rette smoking and drunkenness about three weeks before the fire broke out.
 It was the theory of the plaintiff that the court should consider the prac- tice of the employees to invest the plaintiff with responsibility for the fire
 There was a similar case by Loran Dana against the defendant in which the same evidence would have been submitted. IL was, however. useless to try it and the court suggested that in the event of an appeal from the judg- ment in the Crimson case. the Dana case should be stipulated to be on the same footing with the evidence ad- mitted.
 Judge Kibbey for the defense object ed to the suggestion on the ground that in the event the lower court was reversed there would have to be sec ond trial

PLUMP FOLKS AND THIN FOLKS.
Samose Will Make People Fat-"Money Back if It Fails" Says Bear
 Drug Store.

The line of beauty is a curve. Wom- en may be thin and graceful. but not thin and beautiful. There is a vast number of pale. thin. scrawny people who are all brains and nerves, but without the strength and health that accompanies the standard weight. Good flesh and perfect health go together. true flesh-forming food like Samose is absolutely necessary to many peo- pie.
 No one can use this wonderful flesh forming food for 10 days without a noticeable gain in flesh and strength. Carefully kept statistics show that out of every hundred people who begin the use of Samose. 9S per cent increase in weight and their health and strength are restored
 The Bear Drug Store has so much confidence in this remarkable flesh forming food and health restorer that it is willing and glad to allow any custmer to deposit soc with 1t and take home a box of Samose with the understanding that if it does not give a marked increase in good firm flesh the money will be returned without any questions.

The patient may assume the attitude of at tention with the arm and forefinger raised as if to command silence. or he may raise the arm as if to protect himself, etc Tn all instances the facial expression comports with the gesture and the whole body remains rigid till the arm falls slowly by gravity aud re taxation.

 There are none of these manifesto tions in the case of Nelson. His body is at all times as limp as that of one in natural sleep. If an arm is raised it falls as soon as released and re- mains in the position into which 1t falls however uncomfortable that may be.

A mammoth sheet of rich ore has re-
Gently been developed in the Illinois
mine of the Lodi Mines company, near
Luning, which the management believes
will soon range with the big deposits
of high grade that made Eureka and
Phoebe famous in the old days. On the
seventh level the rich assure known as
the Welsh vein has been developed TO;
a distance of 100 feet and three lenses
of high class ore have been disclosed fo-
the entire length of the stope. During
the past few days these lenses have been
making together, finally uniting, at each
end of the stope. into the bodies OF
high grade which breaks an average OF
$3.50 a ton.
For the past year, ever since the pres
ent management of the Lodi Mines com
pany assumed charge of the Illinois
mine, the property has been the scene
of constantly recurring revelations. The
"hig stope,' which was first entered
on the fourth level, is 200 feet In length
and is estimated to hold ore worm

Those who have visited the mine say
the showing is one Of the richest they

Rural in their best days did not com-

bottom of the drift the ore body shows
in undiminishing width and value. The
~leasers have put on a gasoline hoist and
are able to control the supply of water
with a bucket, but when the new lift
is sunk they will put in a pumping
