Sherer rrr Bi iy teries of the psychological are far greater. Generatios ago, Mr. Mesmer. made the world familiar with odic force, but} by Thomas Noell was a total loss, end’ a rabbit-chasing hound. All reserve is rudely set aside. To Millary School 2 my Any TRANSCRIP f x NAT P. BROWN, Proprietor. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION =” pager Veur By Carrier, T is the age of things mysterious. In physics‘ we ‘have the X-ray and radium, the new force that transcends all ~~ others and seems capable of giving off destructive dyn. , -amic influence without diminution of its own bulk and. power, The capacity of the atoms which enter .cosmic-matter is being inquired into, and mau walks upon forces that in proper crystallization hold the planet together, but by atomic changes may explode it into fine flinders: ~_ Allthis is the mysterious of the physical. The myswent no further in its application than to amuse audiences by making clergymen pick each others’ pockets and grave citizens stand on their heads. It was to modern hypnotism what the X-ray is to radium. Hypnotism is mesmerism with suggestion added in such way as to make seemingly normal people cut capers and commit, crimes under the control of their “influence.” Perhaps this newly discovered influence may account for ancient witchcraft. It is written in, the : Pncumonia. annals of witch-burning in New England that one young Died ol fellow procured the burning at the stake of a girl. who had rejected his amatory suit because, he said, he was unable to. , sleep for thinking of her, and therefore he must be bewitched, and he probably was, but not in the way he thought. Hypnotism has had many things laid at its door. People‘arraigned for crime have pleaded hypnotic suggestion, under which they have committed murder and theft. “A San Francisco newspaper recently gave full-page publicity, with pictures and interviews, to another phase of hypnotism. It is accused of having broken an engagement between two young people!This is the most serious charge yet made against it. The course of true love was running as smooth as molasses, when suddenly it became as rough as the breakers on Columbia River bar and turbid as a slickensbearing stream, and then in-a jiffy it was all off between Jack and Jill, and its centrifugal force sent them apart. There is something, however, more serious than hypnotic force in this case. We. who had the simple, old-fashioned training were taught to believe that the domestic réla— tions and the proceedings antecedent to the foundation of a family and a home were so intensely personal that the papers and the public had nothing to do with them. In those whole some days it was a sign of decent self-respect to presérve inviolate the confidences of the person, the heart, the home and the family. All this seems to be passing away. The affairs of the heart are given glaring publicity, and the parties most interested in their.confidential nature blab volubly to reporters and give up their pictures to illustrate the story: Things once sacred are publicly discussed as if they were no more sentimental than the purchase of a chicken in the market or trading horses at the crossroads. Talk of romance! She has become a painted jade, a mixture of gossip and hussy, discussed by the parties most concerned as freely as if she were a milch cow, a racehorse or The down is rubbed off the peach and the bloom from the grape, and vulgarity sits in the blaze of publicity; where once rose the shaded shrine of domestic and pefsonal privacy and decency. Hypnotism, odic force, suggestion-and astral influence may ‘be pleaded as the reason for this change. But the real reason is the hopeless vulgarizing of life and the sacrifice of all that was once dear because personal and confidential to the desire for publicity and sensation. A Criticism. Eprrog Transonipt— The Morning Miner would speak for the people, or jat least a few of them. In their last issue there appeared an udjustly implied criticiem. The city fathers needed their instrnctions, or at: least some person has told the Miner that the city fathere need a tator, ard:the Miver would presume to act in that capacity. The Morning Miner would curtail city expenses, keep the water rateé low,and likewise taxes; but at the same time this exponent of trath would not sanction the action of the trustees in enforcing a Jaw which will have a tendency to-save the city hundreds of dollars. Some one bas told the Miner that the deputy marshal employed by the city to enforce the water ordinance isaepy. Call him what you will, his mission is honorable, even though his daty calis him to hig task during the small bours of the night. Because the ARRIVALS AT HOTEL ANTLERS, Wepnespay, Auguet 12. W.

At ten o’clock this forenoon Ralph ‘Maitland and Miss Mary Phelan, both of this city, were joined in the holy bonds of matrimony at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M; B. Wilburn, o Grove street.

Mrs. Joseph Bernard, while Mr. George Opughlan acted in the capacity of beet man, A number of the relative and intimate friends were present. At the conclusion of the ceremony congratulations were extended, and an elaborate breakfast followed. The joyous party spent a merry time at table, and toasts for the future welfare of Mr. and Mrs. Maitland were offered shortly before the time set for the newly-wedded couple to leave for the depot. Several of the guests. accompanied the bride and groom to was marked by a profusion of rice and other good-luck tokens. Mr. and Mrs. Maitland will enjoy their honeymoon at Sacramento and adjacent places. _ The bride is well and favorably known to many of our readers, She was born near North San Juan, and passed her girlhood days in that vicinity. In the several little near-by towns she always commanded the respect of a host of friends, For several years she has made her home in this city, where ber kindly disposition and other excellent traits of character have endeared her to our people. Now we come to Mr. Maitland.

Nearly every reader has heard of Doan’s Kidney Pills. Their good work in Nevada Oity still continues, and on: citizens ave constantly adding endorsement by public testimony. No better proof of merit can be had than the experience of friends and neighbors. Read this case. George Davy, miner, of Sacramento street, opposite Olark Street, says; “For years I suffered from kidney complaint, plainly showed by the aching across the small of my back. A number of times I have been laid ap with it totally unable to work. Now, if Doan’s Kidney Pille, procured at Vinton’s drug store, had not stopped a serious attack I could not be induced to recommend them, because a mati with a lame, wesk.or painfal back should not be imposed upon and induced to take any medicine which will not perform exactly what it promises,” For gale by all dealers.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, August 12.—A terrific hurricane struck the eastern half of the Island of Jamaica yesterday, It-is estimated that a million dollars’ worthof damage was done. Every banana plant on this part of the island was destroyed, and property in Kingston was also badly damaged. No lives were lost, as far as. A False Alarm. . Three campers, who arrived here today on their way to the mountains, were the innocent cause:of much alarm to the local convict sleuths. Their
horses needing shoeing they took them to Ed Artbur’s horseshoeing establishment on Sacramento street, and while there one of the travel-stained tourists happened to catch the penetrating eye of a person who made sure he was none other than the notorious convict Miller, one of the recent escapes from Folsom State prison. Reporting his suspicions no little excitement was caueed and preparations were‘made to capture the “bad” man. But upon investigation the whole affair turned out to be a myth, as the gentleman in question is a respected citizen of the lower country, and is probably ere this treating the incident in its proper light. The person with the “eagle eye” is thinking some of engaging in & more reliable vocation. Embrace This Opportunity to Visit the Old Home.
