Blank Hound Over.
W. M. Blank, the man who in his
sleep beat his companion, Butcheck, so
badly, an account of which we printed
yesterday, was arrested . last night and
this morning had his preliminary exam
ination before Recorder Sinnott, he be
ing charged with assault with a deadly
weapon. He was bound over to await
the action of the grand jury, with bonds
fixed at $200. Butcheck seems to stand
the terrible beating he got without any
complaint, remarking to our reporter
this morning that his head "felt much
better." As we looked at the pulpy
mass Dr. Sutherland was working on
yesterday, when he was dressing Butch
eck's scalp, we were forced to the con
clusion that that same scalp was stuffed
with a cannon ball.
A Fine School.
St. Mary's academy for ladies, located
in this city and under the direction of
the SiBters, is one of the best educational
institutions on the coast. The building
is of brick, large and well ventilated.
Besides the regular studies, especial ef
fort is made to inetil into the minds of
the pupils a desire to form their hearts
to virtue, and to fit them to be true and
noble women. Gratuitous lessons are
given in all kinds of plain and fancy
aeedle word, knitting, embroidery, etc.
Pupils will receive the same watchful
care that would be given them by con
scientious parents. It is in fact an ideal
ehcool and a pleasant home. Those who
have girls to send to school should write
to St. Mary's academy for terms. tf.
raprlre of Fashion.
A tan pique is certainly "chic" with a
deep, scant and stiff apron flounce on
the skirt, edged by two rows of nar
row black velvet ribbon and a box
plaited blouse, held by a black velvet
belt.
Some lace-trimmed gowns have, lace
eashes tying behind on one side, with
long ends, making a pretty effect over
a colored bodice. Unlined lace sleeves
are another novelty belonging to the
summer, and are fastened to both Bilk
and cotton gowns.
The long lace line in front is liked
now, and the pointed manner of ar
ranging a belt carries out this idea.
Tailor-made jacket suits are plainer
in regard to trimming than they were
tluring the winter. They often have
j:o garniture at all, save the wide straps
on. the seams, although the severely
plain suits arc generally built of mot
tled or checked cloths. Outside of
tailor-made suits it is a bit original to
wear an vmtrinuned gown. Chicago

GAMBLING IN CRIPPLE CREEK.
Layosti In Every Saloon, nnj Miners
Who Have Stack of AYcnlth.
Out in Cripple Creek the gambling
houses are running in every taioon,
ays the Nebraska State Journal.
ey are hucre, cilded affairs, where the
ard-working miners, after cominr
f rom t h eir c i gh t-h on r sh i f t s, go t o v.-li i Ic
away their time and money instead of
tanking of home and mother and 15 II.
ng their socks with money 1o pay off
he mortgages on the farms i:r.;-k l.cr.ie.
The men stand five ar.d k!:: dtcr. be
hind the wheels watching the players as
they risk their money, the li:::s mlveii
turous hardly having the coin-aire to
make the play, till, having seen some
man get a winner, they. too. step up
and bet on the black or the red. On
the tables are stacked piles of silver
coin and gold eagles, ar.d the opera
tors of the machines cverv little while
take occasion to show -that the. "-amp
is backed by much mere th:;i: the thou
sand or so that is in sight by ilinp!; nying
a stack of bills in n rcvenincle behind
the table where the notes are thrown
when paid in. with a. kind of reckless
abandon that is quite taking.
At other tables a r.oliev wheel will
be running, with so many drawings a
day. In another corner of the room a
crowd of men will be shooting ernps,
a large and intensely absorbed crowd
witnessing the phiy at each place. Off
at one side a stud peker jrr.mc is run
ning. The old miners seen) to favor
this game particularly, and their griz
zled features show the intensity of their
interest as the chips come and go.
CHALLENGED GOD.
A Seedling; Forced Open the Walled
Tomb of on Infidel Coanteun.
"In the town of Hanover, in Ger
many, r-vangelist Moody writes in
Ladies' Home Journal, "there is buried
a German countess who denied the
existence of God and ridiculed the idea
of the resurrection. To further show
her contempt for Christianity she or
dered that on her dcr.th her grave
should be built up of solid masonry
and covered by large stones bound to
gether by iron clamps. On this tomb
was engraved her defiant challenge
that through eternity this tomb should
never be disturbed. But one dav the
seed from some tree, either blown by
the wind or carried by a bird, became
lodged in a small crevice of the tomb.
where soon it sprouted and began to
grow. And then, as if nature had
seemed to mock the haughtv infidel.
she quietly extended the delicate root
of that seedling under the massive
blocks of stone, and slowly raised them
from their place. And now, although
scarce lour generations are passed
since that tomb was sealed thatinsignifi-
cant seedling has accomplished what
God Himself was challenged to accom
plish."

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of a tonic and
and alterative is felt. A prompt use of
this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medi
