Re.no. Nev., Feb. 11. There wae a
big crowd at tbe depot to meet Jim Cor
bett when be passed through on his way
to San Francisco. Governor Sadler, of
Nevada, was among those who came
down from Carson to tike a peek at the
' world's champion. Just as soon as the
train stopped tbe governor clambered
aboard and was introdnced to Corbett
by A. Livingston.
"I am pleated to meet yon, Mr. Cor
bett," said his excellency, making a
critical survey of Corbett's towering
figure and broad shoulders.
"And I am pleased to meet you," re
plied Corbett.
'Yon proved by signing that glove
contest measure and giving tbe people
what they wanted that there was no hy
pocrisy about you. It needed some gov
ernor with tbe courage of his convic
tions to break the ice in matters of this
kind. It is to be hoped your example
will be followed, aud that there will be
less hyoocrisy about thiDgs of this kind
, in future."
Harry Corbett and others accom
panied the governor from Carson, and
the champion held a handshaking levee.
Outside the car a vast crowd yellrd for
him to come out and show himself, and
in response to the vociferous demands,
Jim put in an appearance on the plat
form. Of course he had ' to make a
speech. He said :
"I am glad to see you, and hope to eee
yon all again on the 17th of March. I
am to meet Mr. Fitzsimmons, and I
think I will beat hiuo, altbouzh, of
coarse, you can't always tell about that
thing. I must say that I never felt bet
ter in my life. I feel I have plenty of
good friends in Nevada."
As the train rolled out there was great
cheering for Corbett.
A BUL1ET IN 1113 BRAIN.
Suicide of Capt.
Phllo McUlffin
York.
at Mew
Kkw York, Feb. 11. Captain Philo
McGiffen, who commanded the Chinese
..'ironclad Chen Tnen in tbe battle of
Yalu river in September, 1894, during
the China-Japanese war, committed
suicide early this morning in a post
graduate hospital to which he was re
cently admitted for treatment. He shot
himself over tbe right ear. A . nurse
found him sitting in bed, with his back
propped up by pillows. Blood was
streaming from an ugly wound on the
right side of his head. . On a little
table directly at tbe head of the bed was
one revolver and on the floor near tbe
bed was another. One chamber of the
pistol on the table had been discharged,
On tbe table waB a note wxitten in lead
pencil. The paper appeared to have
" been torn from a note book. In sab-
stance tbe note said the captain left his
respects to his people and friends, and
regretted the act he was about to com
mit. How he came in possession of the
' pistols is not yet known.
The captain was taken to the hospital
(" last "month by friends. - About the "mid
!lexf January he became insane, and it
was found necessary to have : him . confined.-
He was taken to a room on the
Becond floor of the building, with a win
dow opening on Second avenue. -
He had mental trouble for months be
fore it developed into insanity, and on
. bis being removed to the hospital he was
eo violent it was found necessary to place
him in a' strait-jacket. Dr. Hammond
attributed bis condition to wounds re
ceived jn the battle on the Yalu river.
Philo : Norton McGiffen, -who com-
' manded tbe Chinese ironclad Chen Yuen
- at the battle of Yalu river, was born . in
Washington, Pa., in 1862. He was the
son of Captain Norton Giffen, who
eerved in the Mexican war with distinc-
tion, and was colonel of Eighty-eight
Pennsylvania volunteers during the re
. bellion. He graduated at tbe naval
academy at Annapolis with the high
honors in 1882. -
The personal bravery of Captain' Mc
Giffen won admiration long before the
battle ot Yalu river. He was thrown by
accident of travel into the midst - of the
great railroad strike in Pittsburg, in
1887, and tendered his sendees to the'
city. They were accepted, and he dis
tinguished himself by personal : bravery,
running an engine single-handed through
- a mob of strikers to the rescue: of rail
roaders imprisoned in the roundhouse.
He was given a gold medal and a vote
of thanks by the city council.
When a naval cadet in Annapolis, Mc
Giffen received the thanks of tbe secre
tary of the navy for rescuing two chil.
dren from a burning bnilding. Two
jears later NcGiffen was complimented
in a ceneral order from tbe secretary of
the navy for an act of personal bravery
for going aloft to secure a spar on tbe
Constitution during a hurricane, when
the sailors would not venture into the
rigging, ;
After eraduatine near the bead of his
class, McGFffen was honorably dis
charged in 1884, owing to a reduction in
the number of, midshipmen. He en
tered the services ot China during the
Franco-Chinese war.' and was"vdistin-
guished for gallantry ; was sent US Eng
land to superintend the construction of
iioncIadB and at the outbreak of hostih
ties with Japan, was put in command of
a Chinese squadron. " '''
HEROIC DEID OF A. MINER.
Sacrifices Himself to Bare
Companions. '
His Two
Sfckaxb, Feb. 11. A rare act of hero
ism, such as deserves to be recorded in
history and song, was performed at
Eossland, B. C, today, which saved the
lives of two miners and proved plain
Jim Hemsworth to be one of nature's
noblemen. '-.-''
Jem Smith and Frank Conson were
working at the bottom of a narrow shaft
of the Young America mine, at a depth
of nearly 150 feet, engaged in loading ore
into an iron-boond bucket, while Jim
Heinsworth's duty consisted in hauling
tbe bucket to the surface by means of a
windlass. The heavy bucket, tilled with
ore, had almost reached the top of the
shaft when the iron crank of the wind
lass snapped in two like a bit of pine,
hurling Hemsworth to the ground.
Springing to his feet half dazed by tbe
blow, Hemsworth saw the windlass
whirring around at a frightful rate of
speed as the loaded, bucket shot down
the shaft upon the men below, He had
not a second to lose. There was just one
chance to save them, yid he took that
cbance. Jumping forward, be threw his
body upon tbe cogs of the whirring
windlass, thrusting his arms and
shoulder between the swiftly revolving
wheels. Their iron jaws crunched and
tore tbe flesh, cruehed nerves, bone and
sinews, tore ghastly wounds lrom nnger
tip to shoulder, but tbe windlass stood
still. With an awful jerk the bucket
stopped just above the heads of the two
men far down the shaft.
Pale as death, with the blood flowing
in streams and suffering intense agony,
Hemsworth never uttered a cry nor even
a sound, as the jaws of the wheel pin
ioned him fast as in a vice. Superin
tendent Shields, who witnessed tbe acci
dent from a short distance away, rushed
to Hemsworth's aid and blocked the ma
chinery.
As ' Hemsworth staggered back and
was about to fall, Shields caught him in
his arms, at tbe same time exclaiming:
"My God, Jim ! This is awful I"
"Oh, what's the difference?" replied
the plucky fellow, "so long as I saved
the boys?"
His wounds were dressed and the in
jured man made as comfortable as could
be under the circumstances. The at
tending physicians are at this time un
able to state how serious Hemsworth's
injuries are likely to result, but unless
he is hurt internally they hope to save
his life. His arm, however, in all likeli
hood will have id be amputated at the
shoulder.

Perhaps the first black walnut lumber
ever manufactured on the Pacific coast
from Pacific coast timber was sawed
few days ago at the mill of H. S. Horton,
west of Monroe, says the Coryallis Times
The logs come from old Lancaster, two or
three miles from Junction, and the trees
were planted while the commonwealth
was still in swaddling clothes. The logs
were in dimensions from twelve to fif
teen inches, and only a few hundred feet
of tbe lumber was made. The fiber is
tough and the grain susceptible of the
high polish usually seen in walnut furni
ture.
S. H. Horton, writing to the Corvallis
Times, says that the only survivor of tbe
four Benton county members of the Ore
gon constitutional convention is Hon. H.
B. Nichols, who, at a ripe old age, full ot
the honor of a well-rounded life, lives
quietly on bis farm west of Monroe. Mr,
Nichols was a member of tbe constitu
tional convention, a member of the last
territorial legislature, and a 'member
from Benton county of the first state leg
Nature. He is now almost, if not quite,
8U years ol age, and a remarkable fact in
this connection is that he reads the fin
est print without the aid of spectacle's.
Tbe hold-up of the legislature pre
vented Senator Dufur coming tip ' yes
terday, and his not coming home held
up the trial of Osburn ; this held up the
jury one day, preventing tbem being
discharged, and as many of the latter
are from Hood River and should be at
tending to their berry patches, that in
dustry may be said to have been held up
too: The holding up of the berry bnsi
ness will make less money for the mer
chants, who will, therefore, not buy .as
much in Portland, their business being
slack will make times haider in Port
land and eo eventually it will happen
that Simon will have less plunder, and
so he will have achieved the holding of
Himself up, and that would be tbe most
virtuous yet be could do if he would
carry it to a finish.. ,

an attack of fever, was a great sufferer
from pain in the back and hips," writes
Louden Grover, of Sardis, Ky. "After
using quite a number of remedies with
out any benefit she tried one bottle of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and it has
given, entire relief." Chamberlain's
Pain Balm is also a certain cure for rheu
matism. Sold by Blakeley & Houghton.

J rV STORY OF, U , HUNG . CHANG,
How He Interested ITimgelf in Two
Chinese Women. .
Something over a year ago a Chi-
hnese Christian girl named Marguerite
Wang came to America, with the in
tention of obtaining- an education. She
remained here a year, and was just
about to enter a woman's college when
she received word that her father had
betrothed her to a man whom she had
never seen. Under the consular reg
ulations she was forced to return to
her home, foregoing her education, to
marry this man. Miss Hartford, one of
the principal workers in the Foo-Chow
mission, who was here on a visit, ac
companied her on her return.' :
On the same ship with them was Li
Hun Chang1 and his suite. The viceroy
noticed the Chinese girl, and sent his
secretary, Lord Li, to inquire about
her. A day or two later he sent wpru
he would like to talk with Marguerite
and Miss Hartford. They went to see
him and told him the story of the girl's
attempt to obtain an education. The
viceroy was" much pleased with ? his
countrywoman and seemed to take a
great interest in her. He told her and
Miss Hartford about the woman's con
gress, which, is to be held in London
in 1898, and said that lie wanted the
women of China to be represented at
the congTess.
After a little talk he told Marguerite
that he would appoint her to represent
China and its women at the congTess.
H then asked Miss Hartford if she did
not know of some other woman' in
China that was qualified to be a dele
gate to the congress. Miss Hartford
at once recommended to him Dr. Hu
King Eng, the first Chinese woman to
study medicine. Some years ago she
left China to come to America, and
after a course in the woman's medical
school at Philadelphia she received her
degree. She then returned to .China
and became one of the most valuable
members of the Foo Chow, mission,
where she now is. Li Hung Chang was
much interested in. the story and after
a few questions said that she should be
appointed as the second woman to at
tend the congress. So China will be
represented at the woman's congress
and by two Christian women. After
the viceroy's arrival in China he made
the appointment in a formal manner.

A COWBOY'S
LETTER.
It Was to
His father. Who Was a Duke
in Scotland.
This world has become but a very
small place, yet it is not every day that
the fact is so forcefully demonstrated
as it was to a certain doctor of wham
a western paper tells. This doctor had
under his care in the (hospital a cow
boy from one of the ranges of northern
Montana, who, when- he became con
valescent, one day walked into the doc
tor's house to thank him for his services
and say goodrby. As he was about to
leave the office, the cowboy remarked:
"Doctor, I understand that you are
soon .to set off on a trip to tna other
side of the water, and that before you
return you intend to visit Scotland.
If such is the case, I should like to give
you a letter to some friends of mine."
The doctor replied that he did intend
to visit Scotland, and that he should
be pleased to take charge of the letter.
Thereupon. - tbe cowboy sat down.
wrote a brief letter, sealed it up, and
addressed the envelope to let us say
the "duke of Craiige" at a castle in
Scotland. When he handed it to the
doctor, that gentleman looked at the
address rather dubiously, and then
asked, in a voice that was possibly a
little cold: "Is this gentleman an- ac
quaintance of yours?"
Well, yes, replied the ranch-rider.
"I think it quite probable he will re
member me. He is my father, and I
shall be glad to have you call on him
and tell him Tan getting' along all
rigiht."
The doctor took the letter, and when
he left for the old world had every in
tention of cultivating the acquaintance
of the Scottish nobleman, as he had
already cultivated the acquaintance of
his son. Youth's Companion. ' .. .
- -. Antiseptic Qualities in Coins.
It is a well-known fact that paper
money is liable to transfer bacteria
from 'one person to another, and thus'
to spread contagious diseases. It is also
supposed that coins, which are more in
circulation than notes, might similar
ly act as agents for spreading disease,
and investigations in that direction
were made at the Vienna university
when Austria changed its currency tff
the gold basis. A report about his ob
servations was recently published by
Dr. Vincentin the Vienna Medical Ga
zette, in which he states that metals
act, so to speak, as antiseptics in regard
to bacteria, or microbes, the fact being
that these miscroscopic organisms have
but a very short "lease of life while on
metals. The destroying influences of
metals increase with their temperature,
nnd also with the close touch of the
micro-organisms with the metal. . At a
temperature of 95 to 100 degrees Fahren
heit, which is common in the pockets
where money is carried, the destruction
of microbes occurs within three hours.
Tie various metals used for coins are
somewhat different in this respect, sil
ver being the most antiseptic and gold
the least. Copper and bronze hold
about the middle between the two more
precious metals. St. Louis Globe

Remedy a fair test and consider it one of
