6an Francisco, Aug. 20.— John A.
Benson and Dr. Kdward B . Perrin were
yesterday convicted of conspiracy to
defraud the United States government
in securing 12,000 acres of land in Te-
lmma county.
l h e verdict, which means a fine and
term of imprisonment, was returned by
a jury in the United States District
court after being out about an heur.
Benson and Dr. Perrin were allowed
to retain their liberty on hall. Judge
De Haven set Thursday as a day for
passing sentence.
J. C. Campbell made the closing ar
gument for the defense at the morning
session, and in the afternoon United
States District Attorney Devlin cloeed
for the prosecution, summing up the
case in a forcible manner.
In his
charge Judge De Haven instructed the
jurors that if they found from the evi
dence that Dr. Perrin had at any time
subsequent to October 31, 1903, taken
advantage of the contract w ith Benson
he should be found guilty as cliarged.
After the jury had been out about
half an hour they filed back into court
and asked for a reading of letters Perrin
wrote from Washington, Snell’ s reply
and that part of the charge relating to
Dr. Perrin’ s liability in connection with
the Benson contract.
A verdict was
returned within ten minutes after the
request of the jury had been granted.
Dr. Perrin took the verdict very hard
and was comforted by his two sons.
Benson appeared to be dumfounded at
the result.
The punishment provided by the stat
ute is a fine of not less than $1,000 nor
more than $10,000 and imprisonment
for not less than two years.

Paris, Aug. 19.— The scientific and
medical world is greatly interested in
the diecovery of a young blacksmith, of
Rome, to preserve corpses fresh and in
tact. The system is the injection of
serum which kills the micro-organiBln ■

It is said to he the secret of the in
vention many years aao .for the same
purpose of Gerolamo Kegato, which had
since been lost.
The inventor is a
young man named Pignotti, 23 years of
age, and his hope is that from this dis
covery he may push on his researches
and succeed in caring certain diseases
by injecting his serum into the living
subject.

tors for C ongestion.
Portland, Aug. 20.— “ General condi
tions are im proving,” said R . T. Reid,
district superintendent of the Western
Union Telegraph company, who was in
this city yesterday from Seattle.
“ There has not been a day since the
strike began, a week ago, that our com
pany has not had enough good opera
tors to handle all business, and they
could have done so, but for the m ali
cious interference with our wires by the
railroad telegraphers. W e have a num
ber of secret service men and inspec
tors, who are on duty at suspected
points and we propose to arrest and
prosecute every man who is found tam
pering with our wires. However, there
has been lees disturbance on this ac
count today than any otiier day since
our operators walked out.
“ Six months ago the operatois in the
employ of the Western Union through
out the Northwest were as one large
happy fam ily. But that condition has
been replaced by discord ever since the
men came under the influence of Sam
J./Sm all, president of their national or
ganization. The men had no grievances
and what is more they deliberately
wsIked out without being so much as
ordered. It was not until then that
they formulated a statement of griev
ances to be presented to the company.
The same course was pursued by the
messengers.
“ The trouble is not that the men
have grievances, not that they were
kept from their positions by intimida
tion. They would rather not work at
all. Take the Portland office today,
for instance. The com pany is paying
$3 a day for messengers.
Seven men
accepted positions as messengers this
morning and before night six of them
had quit their positions.”

Board o f Health Takas Drastic M eas
ures to Isolate Patients.
San Francisco, Aug. 19.— Five cases
of bubonic plague, four of which have
resulted in death, have been reported
to the Health department within the
past week. The patients, with one ex
ception, were of the poorer class of
foreigners dw elling in the neighbor
hood of the old Chinatown. The ex
ception was a foreign sailor taken from
a coastwise steamer.
Prompt and active measures were
taken by the local, state and Federal
authorities, and Bpread of the disease
is not feared. Both President Jules A.
Simon, of the health board, and Health
Officer James T. Watkins stated today
that the situation is well in hand and
no occasion exists for alarm. The in
fected steamer was ordered into quar
antine with her passengers and will so
remain until released by the Health
department. The two shacks inhab-
ited by the other patients were fum i
gated, locked up and sealed.
The bodies of the two Mexicans, Ital
ian and Russian Pole, who succumbed,
were destroyed in quicklime.

Tyaer, a wire-haired Irish terrier, aud
Pickles, a gamecock. Said Mr. Wain-
wrlght, first officer of the Indrapura:
"A ll this talk about nature faking la

We tried to clip Pickles’ spurs, but they

harmless.
“ Next day Pickles began plcklDg the

then he switched to the starboard aide.
Finally one day the howls o f the chow
dog again resounded through the steam
ship. Pickles was In hla accustomed

Vivian Tuthlll, the Indrapura's third
officer, told a nature story about a
snake and a monkey which he got at
Singapore and which fought a battle
to the death. The snake was a beauti
ful reptile o f the garter variety, and
the monkey was a bushy-faced little
fellow o f sweet temper and great agil
ity. One morning the snake and mon
key were found In dendly battle. The
monkey was killed and the anake crawl

It, entering in at one eye and out of

and died. Mr. Tuthlll dried the outfit
under the fierce tropical sun In the Red

monkey’s skull with the little snake,
practically petrified, still entwined
through the monkeys’ head.
Second Engineer Fraser, of the
freighter Indravelll, lying almost along
side the Indrapura at the Bush stores
in South Brooklyn, told o f a battle be
tween a cheetah on hoard the Indra-
velll and a bulldog In this harbor. If
Roosevelt decides against the cheetah
as an easy victor over a bulldog be will
have to do so over the words o f seven
British marines, stanch and true.
The cheetah was chained to the port
rail on the sun deck and wus uncon

men discussed him.
" I ’ve got a dog that can do that cat
in about two minutes,” said the long
shoreman.
“ Bring along the dog,” said the steve

The cheetah paid no particular atten

It Is a strange fact that the word
“ dunce,” meaning a stupid person,
comes from the name o f one o f the
most eminent scholars o f his time.
Duns Scotus.
In tlie Reformation the works o f the
schoolmen fell into disfavor with the
reformers, and Duns, who was the
leader o f the schoolmen, was often
spoken o f with scorn by the votaries
o f the new learning. As time went by
the name o f Duns became a byword for
utter itupldityr^

Rouget de Lisle wus composing th*
Marseillaise.
“ It seems to be up to me to do some
thing of the kind,” he said. “ The people
have grown tired of hearing ‘There’ll Be
a Hot Time in the Old*Town To-night,*
and they’re hollering for something
fresh.”
Endeavoring to make it musical and
catchy, and as unlike “ Hail, Columbia,”
as he possibly could, he tousled up his
hair, sawed a few more notes on his vio
lin, and proceeded to grind out the
rhymes to fit them.
