When the dangers of modern, civilised life are considered, it is surprising that a course ia first aid to the injured is not made compulsory in the public schools. It would certainly be more useful than wmany of the courees given now. Railroad wrecks, elevator scoidents, runaway automobiles, fires, falling bricks from skyecrapers, live wires and @ host of other accidents are daily perils. It may fall to any one to be a participant iu ora victim of such an accident at any time and a knowledge of what to do at the critical moment might mean the difference between life and death, Yet in case of emergency not one person in ten is ready. The other nine stand around and let the injured person die while a doctor, is being sought.

Adispatch from Washington, D.O., states that the United States Supreme Court has effirmed the judgment of the California Supreme Court in the ing Company ve, the Argonaut Mining Company. The case nominally concerned the ownership of 2604 tons of gold ore valued at $56099, but in fact involved the judicial iaterpretat:on of the.U. 8. mining Jaws, especially the act of July 26, 1866, which gives a mining locator the “right to follow -his vein or lode, with its dips, angles or variations to any depth, although it may enter land adjoining.” Between October and December, 1896, the Kennedy Company extracted from the verticai boundaries of the Silva mine, owned by that company, in Amador county, the ore in question. The Argonaut Company claimed to have been the owner of the ore because of its ownership of an adjoining claim within which was a vein of quartz having its apex there, but dipping out beyond the divergent end lines of the claim and forming the ore body ino the Silva claim, from which the. ore in question was extracted. The Superior Court of Calaveras county awarded judgment against the Kennedy Oompany and the Oalifornia Supreme Court affirmed the judgment upon appeal. . : Builds up the system, puts pure, rich blood in the veins; makes men and women strong and healthy—Buardock Blood Bitters.

The Bskersfleld Morning Echo of February 7th last, says: The moving picture show given here last evening at Scribner’s opera house by Beaty Bros. was the best exhibition of the kind ever held here. The pictares are thrown on the screen in a steady manner, and the eyes are not blinded by the vibratory motion of most moving Pictares, A larce audience was present and they manifested their approval by lond applause. The subjects of the pictures take a wide range, from MoKioley’s funeral procession in Buffalo, New York, to comic views in endless variety. Several illustrated songs were algo rendered in good voice by a good baritone singer. The exhibition will be given again tonight and it ie safe to say that there will not be a vacant eeat in the opera house. There were very few last night. CASTORIA For Infants and Children.

Adispatch from Washington, D.O., states that the United States Supreme Court has effirmed the judgment of the California Supreme Court in the ing Company ve, the Argonaut Mining Company. The case nominally concerned the ownership of 2604 tons of gold ore valued at $56099, but in fact involved the judicial iaterpretat:on of the.U. 8. mining Jaws, especially the act of July 26, 1866, which gives a mining locator the “right to follow -his vein or lode, with its dips, angles or variations to any depth, although it may enter land adjoining.” Between October and December, 1896, the Kennedy Company extracted from the verticai boundaries of the Silva mine, owned by that company, in Amador county, the ore in question. The Argonaut Company claimed to have been the owner of the ore because of its ownership of an adjoining claim within which was a vein of quartz having its apex there, but dipping out beyond the divergent end lines of the claim and forming the ore body ino the Silva claim, from which the. ore in question was extracted. The Superior Court of Calaveras county awarded judgment against the Kennedy Oompany and the Oalifornia Supreme Court affirmed the judgment upon appeal. . : Builds up the system, puts pure, rich blood in the veins; makes men and women strong and healthy—Buardock Blood Bitters.
