Opera ted Upon
For Appendicitis.

Miss Thelma Kay, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs H. E. Kay, was operated upon for
appendicitis on Saturday evening last in
the operating room at the county hosp-
tai. The attack came on suddenly the
young lady having attended the public
school up to the Wednesday preceding.
On Thursday she complained of severe
pains A physician was called, and the
disease was diagnosed as an urgent case
Of appendicitis. DR.. Endicott was as
sisted in the operation by Drs. Gall and
Sprague. The patient stood the ordeal
remarkably well. The operation revealed
some foreign substance had lodged in
the sac forming the appendix, which
was the cause of the trouble. 1t is be-
leved that small particle of walnut
shell had been swallowed unwittingly,
and had found its way to the sac. There
was no way to remove it except by a
critical operation, which, however, was
successful in every way. The patient is
doing as we'll as could be expected.

Bone Broken.

Walter Boitano, son of the forman of
the Zeila mine, hurt his leg some time
ago. He is II years of age, and his
parents live at Scottsville. Little was
thought of the injury at the time, and it
was thought the pain would cease in a
short time. Instead of that, however,
the pain increased, and the foot about
the aukle became swollen considerably.
On Saturday he was taken to the Good
man sanitarium for treatment, and DR..
Goodman, after an examination, de-
clared that one of the small bones of the
ankle was fractured. At last accounts
he was getting along nicely toward re-
covery.

reported that the defendants offered to
compromise the matter by the payment

worry and expense of a trial, but the
offer was turned down by the plaintiff.

Costly Exporting.

We have looked over the minutes of
the board Of supervisors this week for
the purpose of ascertaining the amount
that has been paid up to date for the per
diem of S. to the expert now engaged
in exporting the books of county officers
for the four years ending January II,
1909.
In January last year j. S. jacks was
employed by the supervisors as an ex-
pert at SIS per day. Measured by the
per diem the compensation is small,
and would hardly tempt one who has
had experience in such matters. But it
has panned out pretty steep for the tax

Illicit Brandy Seized

An officer of the United States inter
nal revenue department yesterday seized
on large quantity of Illicit brandy.
The hidden spirits were found among
the woods on land belonging to Mrs
Mofno in Middle Fork district. There
were seven barrels, each containing
about 81 gallons. The barrels were
buried under the turf, evidently to hide
them from the revenue officials, and to
escape the tax of 81. 10 per gallon. 1t is
said the tax on this brandy would
amount to S400. 1t is reported that Mrs
Molhno, who has a distillery on her
premises, disclaims all knowledge of
the seized brandy. The barrels were
located on a wagon with the intention of
bringing them away when the wagon
capsized, dumping them. They were
finally taken to the house of Robert Read
and stored, with r. Read in charge.

RAILROAD CAR
BURNED AT LONE.
Supposed Case of Incendia- =
riSm.

A paint car belonging to the Southern
Pac itic was destroyed by fire while on
the track near the lone depot during
Sunday night. A painting crew came
up day or so before for the purpose of
painting the depot at lone. The outfit
consisted of three cars, namely, stor-
age car, in which was kept the paints
and other material used by the painters,
sleeping car and wash car. There
we're about half dozen men in the
crew. The key OF the storage car was
kept hanging up in cerain place in the
bunk car, so that any Of the employees
could get material when needed. Sum-
day the men we're not working. Shortly
after one O'clock the following morning
the crew were reused up by the cry of
fire. Not only the storage car, but also
the wash car and sleeping car we're on
fire. The storage car containing mnchin-
fammable material, was soon a mass of
flame and beyond salvation. II was
utterly destroyed. The employees, how
ever, managed to save the other two cars
before much damage was done. lnvest-
cation led to the belief that the fire was
of incendiary origin, as rags saturated
with turpentine were fonud. Suspicion
was directed to one of the painting crew
named John Dolan as the guilty party.
Sheriff Gregory went to lone Monday
and brought the suspect'to Jackson and
lodged him in Jail the same day. On
Wednesday he was taken to lone, where
the preliminary examination was held
before justice of the peace Cartlin, the
district attorney being present in behalf
of the prosecution. The evidence was
purely circumstantial, but pointed
strongly to the defendant. 1t was shown
that he brushed by some of his fellow
workmen in their hunks a few seconds
before the alarm of fire was raised !;
evidently he had been out of the sleep
ing car, and was returning to his bunk.
1t was also testified that when the fire
sitting up in his bunk, as if expecting
something unusual to happen. Monday
morning Dolan called the attention of
the crew boss Martin to a key lying on
the ground, which proved to be the key
of the storage car. Dolan told lot of
contradictory stories in relation to the
matter which helped to fasten suspicion
on him. No motive of malice or re-
venge or plunder could be shown. 1t is
said that this is the third fire that has
occurred since he has been a member of
the crew, but he was never suspicioned
before. After hearing the evidence,
Judge Gartlin held there was not
sufficient to hold him, and ordered his
discharge.
1t is reported that Dolan was hurt at
Lodi some time back, and has developed
a mania for starting fires.
