Disinfectinn Theaters.

A committee of French doctors has
been instructed to submit to the Paris
police a scheme of regulations for
minimizing the danger of the dissem.
ination of infectious diseases at theat-
rical performances. 1t is proposed, in
the first place, that every theater shall
be disinfected after every performance
by means of sawdust steeped in anti
septics. 1t also is recommended that
windows and doors shall be kept vide
open in the intervals between the per-
formances, that the cushioned seats
shall be sponged with antiseptics, that
the cloak-room attendants shall under
go regular medical inspection, and fin
ally that the air of the house shall be
sterilized once a week by means of
steam charged with formaldehyde.
Pestiferous microbes certainly will
need to be OF very hardy character to
resist this drastic treatment.-West

EARLY OBSERVATION OF RAIN.

The rain gauge made in 1859 by
Benedetto Castelli, Galileo's contem-
porary, has been regarded as the
first, but evidence of earlier instru-
ments has been found by DR.. Y.
Wada, of the Corean Meteorological
observatory at Chemulpo.
From Corean records, it seems
that rain gauges were regularly used
as early as 1442. They were bronze
vases Is inches deep and seven
inches in diameter, mounted on pill
lars, and King Seio ordered them
placed at the observatory and sup
piled to the provinces and cantons,

DEPTH OF THE ATLANTIC.

1t is now possible to assert that in
but few places has the Atlantic q
depth exceeding 5000 fathoms, or
three and a quarter miles. Its great
est depth is about 100 miles north
of the island of st. Thomas, where
it reaches 1875 fathoms, or about
four miles and a quarter. Except in
the neighborhood of its coast line
and in certain shallower areas, the
floor of the Atlantic basin at its
widest part lies at a depth of from
1000 to 5000 fathoms, the slopes
being extremely gradual. In some
parts, as for instance to the west
ward of Ireland, the slope is only
about six feet to the mile. Were the
waters removed, the bottom of the
ocean would appear much more level
than some people think.

One Of the most extraordinary and
fantastic Christian places of worship

even stranger in its history, says tho
Strand Magazine. No one knows the
architects name, but the story goes
that the car ordered his eyes to be
put out as soon as the church was
completed, so that he should never
be able to surpass his work. The
idea of the building was inspired by
the wickedest and maddest monarch
who ever sat on a throne-Ivan the
Terrible Of Moscovy. This uncanny
looking edifice has been luridly de-
scribed by a well-known writer. at

ELEVEN TONS
OF ORE WORTH
$1,000 GOLD DASIN

When the Watt boys and Charley
Carroll sold the Gold Basin mine
to Salt Lake parties, they had II
tons of ore on the dump, which was
reserved, as to the transaction. This
lot was shipped to the Selby smelter
at San Francisco.
Wednesday a check was received
from the smeIter in the amount of
$1,000, as the net returns for this
ore that came from a seven-foot
hole. The actual net returns per
ton was $246.
This shaft is now deeper than
so feet and at no point have the
values run as low as indicated by
the above net results. When the
smelter returns from Salt Lake ar

SHERIFF farrell
TAKES TRAIL
OF HORSETHIEF

Sheriff C. p. Farrell left last
night on a journey which is filled
with dangers and which may result
in killing before he returns. He
has gone into Northern Washoe
county to look for one Davis,
horse thief, who is said to be wait
ing for the arrival of the sheriff,
declaring to his comrades that he
is prepared to meet the sheriff and
battle with him.
The officers say that Davis is
gun fighter and that he has more
than one notch in his gun, but that
they believe he will seek other fields
when he hears the sheriff is coming.
He is said to have sent word,
though, that he is ready to see if
Sheriff Ferrel is a better man with
a gun than he is and that he will
not leave his present location
Some time ago Davis, who is
known to be at the head of gang
Of horse-thieves and cattle-rustlers
in Northern Washoe county, North
eastern California and Southern
Idaho, sent a letter to the local
sheriff calling him many abusive
names and daring him to go into
the north and look for him. Sheriff
Ferrel left for the north immedi-
ately but Davis had fled and taken
/ some horses of that district with
him.
Only yesterday Sheriff Ferrel re-
ceived a message that Davis was
again in his old haunts and that
he was talking a great deal about
his desire to whip Washoe's sheriff
This time Ferrel hopes to get his
man.
Other officers in other counties
of this state and from California
land Idaho have searched for Davis,
but have always failed to find him.
1t is alleged that he has stolen many
horses and cattle and that he has
large following of desperate char
acters.
Sheriff Ferrel also intends to visit
places along the Western Pacific
and to close a number of saloons
said to be operating there without
licenses Gazette.

KILLS GIRL and

JEALOUS INFATUATION is SUP
POSED CAUSE OF TRAGEDY
IN REDLIGHT DISTRICT.

William Mathers, formerly car
Inspector at Inlay, shot and killed
woman known as May Fisher
Wednesday shortly after O'Clock
in the morning and then turned
the revolver on himself, firing a
bullet into his right side, and died
ALMOST instantly.
The horrible double tragedy oc-
Cured at house known as The
Paint Shop in the redlight dis
tlict, and there were no witnesses.
Mathers infatuation fer the woman
and jealousy is the only known mo-
tive of the deed The shooting was
done with 32-caliber Colts au-
tomato and five shots entered the
woman's body, three of the wounds
being close together i'll the left
breast, and powder marked, indi
eating that the revolver had beer
held almost against her body One
| bullet sufficed for Mather to enc
his own life, the wound being in
his right breast, and the missile
did not pass through his body
He was dead when the first per.
son reached the scene.
According to the story told by the
ether inmates of the house, Mathel
had been in the house for some
time in company with May Fisher
and she accompanied him to the
door to bid him good night. Fol
a few minutes they stood at the
front door talking and it seemed
that Mathers was urging the woman
to leave with him, but they did no
raise their voices as if engaged il
a quarrel. Then the shooting wa
heard, the shots following eacl
other SO quickly that they coulC
hardly be counted.
The inmates of the house wer,
so terror-stricken that they did no
venture to the front door, but on
of them, Rose Paulos, ran out o
the rear door and, meeting a passer

happened. Drs. Giroux and Swez
were quickly summoned and they
with Policeman Lewis, were tn
first to reach the scene. A hast

Train Load of NJ. c. Fish.

Norfolk, Va, March 23.-Following
close upon the heels of the Norfolk
Southern's express train from the
South Tuesday afternoon was a spe-
cial train Of many express cars load
ed with nothing but fish, principally
the delicious North Carolina shad,
destined for the great markets of the
East. The fishing industry along the
line of the Norfolk Southern in East
ern North Carolina has grown to such
an enormous extent that the Norfolk
Southern some times finds it neces-
asary to run fast special trains to
handle the business. Yesterday on
arrival of the train at the Bramble-
ton station, numbers of express
wagons, trunks and drays of all de-
scriptions we're there to transfer the
many boxes of fish to the outgoing
steamers to the North. Since the COM
pletion of the big bridge between
Edenton and Mackey's Ferry the fish
ing industry as well as trucking has
increased by leaps and bounds, no
doubt caused by the greatly increased
transportation facilities that are now
afforded shippers. All the way from
Beaufort to Elizabeth City the country
feels the effects Of it. The fishing
industry alone is worth many thou
sands of dollars each year

IS DISTANT
MEXICAN REBELS WILL NOT LAY
DOWN ARMS UNTIL REFORMS
ARE GRANTED
HAVE NO FAITH In DlAz

Washington, March 23.-Announc-
ing that they will not lay down their
arms until formal negotiations for
peace are under way, the revolution
ary party of Mexico, through DR..
Vasquez Gomez. their representative
in Washington, issues a statement
OUTLINING the attitude Of the revolu-
tionists toward peace overtures and
reforms in the republic The state
ment says:
"The revolutionary party, which is
constituted of the best men of the
country, cannot accept as a guarantee
only the promise of government that
has for more than 80 years been
promising and has never fulfilled a
single one of its promises.
1.-The revolutionists think, and with
reason, that Immediately following the
laying down of their arms, many of
the leaders would die mysteriously,
no reforms would be granted, and the
oppression would be greater than
ever.
eFor this reason the reyolutionists
will not accept as guarantee Mr.. Ii
mantour, or any other individual, be-
cause one man cannot and must not
serve as a guarantee for a political
party fighting for the liberty of peo-
pie, and much less when such a man
has been, and is, the right hand of
the depressing government. The re-
yolutionists do not desire the com
plete elimination of the opposing par
ty, because every one knows that it
is necessary to have opposite parties
in nation in order to maintain poll
tical equilibrium and righteous ad-
ministration.
"The revolutionary party must be
represented in the government of the
States, in the Congress and in the ca
binet. It is well known that up to the
present not a single member of the
cabinet or representative of the peo-
pie have ever made the least protest
in regard to the great political abuses,
the unjust imprisonments and the
numberless political assassinations.
"For all these reasons the revo1u-
tionists will not lay down their arms
until the time when these reforms that
administration of justice and political
liberty shall be in effect"
