WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...MAY 21, 1879. AGENDS OF THE GAZETTE. The following gentlemen are appointed agents of the Gazette at the places designated. They are authorized to receive money in payment for subscriptions or advertisements: WENTMINSTER.....ROBERT STRONG GARDEN OROVE....CON HOWE ORANGE....M. D. HARWOOD TUSTIN....C. TUTTIN SAN JUAN CAPISTRAND....R. BIDAN NORWALK....J. K. CALDWELL SILVERADO....J. C. HILL TRAVELING AGENT....A. T. PERDON THE TRIAL AND ITS RESULT. Inasmuch as circumstances compelled us to assume unwillingly the role of prosecutor in the case of the People va. Hinde and Schlesinger, it is quite proper to offer a few comments on the case, especially as the failure of the jury to convict the defendants might make it appear that the prosecution was born of prejudice or personal feeling—that it was, as Dr. Schlesinger puts it,"a newspaper libel." The belief that the children in the Hinde family were suffering for want of proper food has long been held by nearly every person in this community—a belief which the evidence given at the trial, and the appearance of the children, confirmed. On Monday of last week Rev. Dr. Toombs, a near neighbor of Hinde, told us that the infant child was on the verge of death, and on this information we wrote the article which caused the District Attorney to proceed against the Society legally. If the jury had been asked: Has the child been properly fed? Is not its present condition due to a want of proper food? It is said that their answer to the first question would have been in the negative, and to the latter in the affirmative. But some of them thought it would be wrong to convict because the faatics did not intend to commit a crime. Neither did Freeman, but he will either hang for the murder of his little daughter, or he will and his days in a lunatic asylum. SANITARY RULES. Which Should be Complied with by Every Community. The oft-made assertion that Los Angeles county is one vast metropolitan is a gigantic mistake. There are many localities in the county in which disease in various terms exist at all seasons, and which are climatically only a few degrees above the Eden which once harbored the minnthropic Chaselewit and the jolly Tapley. If the California aquae is not so violent as that which made the young Englishman's bones rattle like castanets, it is strong enough to make its visitations something to be shunned; and there are many places in the county which persons, whose systems are prone to absorb this disease, would do well to avoid. Malarial fevers are prevalent in many localities which in every other respect are absolutely healthy, and there are few places in the county in which scarlet fever and diphtheria have not made and havoc in many households. Consequences among the localities which enjoy immunity from every form of epidemic or endemic diseases, stands Anaheim. No other place in the county or in the State can boast of as clean a record in this respect, and the time is bound to come when its merit as a health resort will give it a world-wide fame. Every citizen of the place ought to take pride in assisting to maintain the reputation it has so fairly earned. Without the slightest effort on their part, malignant diseases have been warded off, even at a time when almost every town in the county was being sorely inflicted. But the neglect of the proper precautions may at any time precipitate the disease in our midst, and it is the part of wisdom to adopt every means of preventing that calamity. may be well nired; the room is for occupation. In the cleaning of clothing and gation, every article which owe been infected should be even soiled handkerchiefs may die the disease. Should a second the entire house should be above directed. The occurrence of diphtheria fever in a house should lead to inspection of all sources of contact. Within the house: Trace every foul smell, whether free or leaking soil pipes, from waste-pipes imperfectly trapped at the joints; from collar air traps gotten and decomposed "rubbish apartments filthy, overcrowded vectilated. In the yard: Remove all filt poising substances; clean and smelling privies, cesspools clean and fill disused cesspools. The latter are very numerous in an especial source of danger. Privacy, water-closets, drainers, collections of decompose etc., may be disinfected by this lution: To ten gallons of boiling ten pounds of sulphate of iron one pint of crude oil impure and mix thoroughly. This solen ten cents per gallon—less per material can be purchased of grocers. To prevent infection of water privies, and to destroy odor, tion into the pan or vault through a day, at the rate of one pint four persons. Put your own premises in at once; if your neighbor fails inform the Health Officer. There should be no public sons dying of scarlet fever or death of Lloyd Go. New York, May 24.—William died at 11 o'clock to-night William Lloyd Garrison w on the verge of death, motion and information we wrote the article which caused the District Attorney to proceed against the Society legally. If the jury had been asked: Has the child been properly fed? Is not its present condition due to a want of proper food? It is said that their answer to the first question would have been in the negative, and to the latter in the affirmative. But some of them thought it would be wrong to convict because the fauna did not intend to commit a crime. Neither did Freeman, but he will either hang for the murder of his little daughter, or he will end his days in a lunatic asylum. Doctors Bailey, Yocum and Hardin say that the child is dying of starvation. We ask for no better justification for bringing the case to the attention of the authorities. The case presents one of the wildest phases of fanaticism of which there is any record. It is absolutely painful to witness the dominion which has been established over the husband and wife by a self-confessed lunatic. We agree with Schlesinger that if any crime has been committed he is the one that should be held responsible. His dupes are so absolutely under his control as to demand immunity for their acts. There is a great deal of sham about "Dr." Schlesinger and his Societas Fraternia. He never forgets to tell a listener that one of the chief tenets of the Society is to succor the poor. Who have they ever helped? What sorrowing widow have they ever comforted? How many orphans have they fed? On the contrary they have repudiated legally contracted debts, and we assert that since the Society was organized they have never paid a single debt which they have been allowed to contract. The laborer who toiled for them long months was turned away from their door penniless, and when he invoked the law they laughed at his endeavors to get his hard earned money. The Society recognizes the legality of no debt—a fact which those who have dealings with them should not fail to remember. In regard to their spiritualistic views we have not a word to say. Some of the brightest and most talented minds in the world accept Spiritualism as their religion. We fancy that that belief would be more popular than it is were it not weighted down with just such abominations as this Societas Fraternia. Dr. Schlesinger has told us that he is "a free-lover, but not a freelancer." The Doctor indulges in infinitesimal hair-splitting over the definition of words, so to make his meaning more clear we will quote one declaration which he made to the writer in the presence of Rev. Mr. Trew: "If the spirits told me to cohabit with five million women, I would do it." That's the kind of a hairpin he is. The thousand and one rumors that are flying about concerning these people, we don't propose to give publicity to, even if some of them were not of a nature to preclude their publication. The so-called Doctor is a plain-spoken man, continually giving forth what he calls "unpleasant truths," and at Every citizen of the place ought to take pride in assisting to maintain the reputation it has so fairly earned. Without the slightest effort on their part, malignant diseases have been warded off, even at a time when almost every town in the county was being sorely inflicted. But the neglect of the proper precautions may at any time precipitate the disease in our midst, and it is the part of wisdom to adopt every means of preventing that calamity. Scarlet fever and diphtheria of a most malignant type now prevail in the northern and eastern portions of the county, and the Health Officer of Los Angeles has very opportunely issued the following: RULES FOR THE SANITARY TREATMENT OF SCARLET FEVER AND DIPHTHERIA: Scarlet fever and diphtheria are like small pox in their power to spread rapidly from person to person; they are highly contagious. Scarlet fever and scarlatina are one and the same thing; canker rash and rach fever are other names for the same thing. When scarlet fever or diphtheria occurs, the sick person—child or adult—should be placed in a room apart from the other inmates of the house, and should be nursed by as few persons as possible. The sick room should be comfortably warm, exposed to sunlight and well-aired; at the commencement of the sickness only such furniture, bedding, clothes, etc., as are absolutely necessary should be left in the room; carpets and window curtains should especially be removed, as the germs of disease find a lodgment in them and are difficult to displace. The family should not mingle with other people. Visitors should be warned of the presence of a dangerous disease in the house, and no one should be admitted. The clothing and bedding of the patient and nurse should be frequently changed, and after being moistened with a solution of carbolic acid, placed in boiling water for an hour. No other clothing or bedding should be washed at the same time with that which is infected. The clothing and bedding while in use, and the carpets, floors, walls and ceilings, and the halls of the house, should be sprinkled once or twice a day during sickness and convalescence with a solution of carbolic acid. A solution of carbolic acid, well adapted to all such uses, is sold by most druggists, and may be easily made by shaking together in a bottle the impure carbolic acid and water in the proportion of a teaspoonful of carbolic acid to a pint of water. This is best applied with a sprinkler, but may be well applied by dipping the end of a common dust broom into the solution contained in a dinner plate, and throwing it off the brush on bedding, carpets, walls, etc. Whenever any child in your family is taken sick with scarlet fever or diphtheria, such child and all other children residing in the house must be kept from school from the fama. Every citizen of the place ought to take pride in assisting to maintain the reputation it has so fairly earned. Without the slightest effort on their part, malignant diseases have been warded off, even at a time when almost every town in the county was being sorely inflicted. But the neglect of the proper precautions may at any time precipitate the disease in our midst, and it is the part of wisdom to adopt every means of preventing that calamity.

The thousand and one rumors that are flying about concerning these people, we don't propose to give publicity to, even if some of them were not of a nature to preclude their publication. The so-called Doctor is a plain-spoken man, continually giving forth what he calls "unpleasant truths," and at the same time disclaiming any intention of being offensive. We have also written some unpleasant truths concerning the Doctor, and don't particularly care whether he considers them offensive or not. We have no doubt he will admire our cander, even if he is compelled to dissent from our estimate of himself. For the other members of the Society we have kindly feelings, although it is probable that their opinion of the writer is not what he would like them to hold. But they are joined to their idols. Let them alone. Bakerfield, May 28.—A mob at this place last night took the notorious Yeakum brothers from jail and lynched them. The elder brother, Bill, proving too obstreperous to be handled conveniently, was shot, 12 bullets being lodged in his body. The other brother was hanged. The offense of the Yeakum brothers was the annexation of a man named Johnson, against whom they had held a grudge, about a year ago. As their victim was riding along the road in a wagon, seated beside his wife, the Yeakume fired upon him from behind some bushes, killing him instantly. The wife saw the annexes run away from the convict, and was able to identify them. One of the brothers was convicted of murder in the first degree in the Bakerfield District Court. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court, by which a decision was rendered day before yesterday, reversing the action of the lower court, and granting a new trial and change of venue to Fremont county. This was the final straw which the long-suffering people of Bakerfield could not hear. There had been talk of vigilantes for some time, and last night the crisis was precipitated as stated. There is no doubt that two very visions and dangerous men are out of the way. A solution of all drugs is sold by most druggists, and may be easily made by shaking together in a bottle the impure carbolic acid and water in the proportion of a teaspoonful of carbolic acid to a pint of water. This is best applied with a sprinkler, but may be well applied by dipping the end of a common dust broom into the solution contained in a dinner plate, and throwing it off the brush on bedding, carpets, walls, etc. Whenever any child in your family is taken sick with scarlet fever or diphtheria, such child and all other children residing in the house must be kept from school from the commencement of the disease until all possible danger of communicating it to others has passed. On recovery from scarlet fever the sick person should not mingle with others until all roughness of the skin shall have disappeared, as the scabs from the skin carry the disease; at least air seeks is considered a proper period during which isolation is necessary. In diphtheria the patient should remain isolated until the physician states him to be free from disease. When the patient has recovered, the ceiling and walls should be whitened. The floor should be washed with soap and hot water, and carbolic acid added to the water (one pint to three gallons.) For the purpose of fumigation, the windows and doors of the room and the fireplace should be tightly closed. Everything that was in the room during the sickness should be left in it. If the carpet was not removed it should be taken up and raised as far as possible from the floor on chairs or in any other manner; one board of the floor should be taken up. An iron kettle should then be rained from the floor on bricks, and five pounds of roll alpher placed therein; upon this four ounces of alcohol are to be poured and set on fire. Every one must withdraw from the room, as the furnace are poisonous. The precautions taken with the carpet and removal of the board from the floor allow the fumes of the burning alpher to pass beneath the floor and between the walls, and destroy any guise of disease which may be there. At the expiration of ten hours, not before, the room may be opened. All the windows, doors and fireplace should remain open for twenty-four hours; that everything strung this year in California Alecks" are reckoning with Upon the whole, we would straight-out Democratic mice in this county than any unpromising matters may be a good many months later next September, and the cost and historical party are app estimation even of fools. Sues are on the stage, admitting political situations, all of which to be in favor of the poor Democracy. No amount treason in our ranks can do benefit of that chapter or will probably pitch in to serving the Republic, howthe Republican party may away. "Possess your souls scriptural maxim which just now lay to heart. A nomination, amidst all these and clash of cymbals, presents New Constitution and parties, we should prefer this statement of support we believe will be verified hilited the ambition of me and selfish place-seeker." The Warner Silver bill, the House, provides that will hereafter coin all those at the rate prevailing in that Francisco markets, once between the cost of the par value of the dollar coinage. The legal dollars trey, so that the present rate of bullion cents on each dollar. To be legal tender, except where are specially entered into of the Treasury is directed out discrimination, the liquidation of all ordinary Government. Subsidary tender in sums not exceed intended to counteract European single gold-coin denomination and depreciation nearly in the teeth of made in Europe prejudice and circulation of silver may be well aired; the room is then ready for occupation. In the cleansing of clothing and the fumigation, every article which could possibly have been infected should be included, as even soiled handkerchiefs may communicate the disease. Should a second case occur, the entire house should be fumigated as above directed. The occurrence of diphtheria or scarlet fever in a house should lead to an immediate inspection of all sources of contagion. Within the house: Trace to its source every foul smell, whether from constructed or leaking soil pipes, from water-closets and waste-pipes imperfectly trapped or defective at the joints; from cellar air tainted by forgotten and decomposed "rubbish," or from departments filthy, overcrowded and poorly ventilated. In the yard: Remove all filth and decomposing substances; clean and disinfect foul-smelling privies, cesspools and clisterns; clean and fill disused cesspools and privies. The latter are very numerous in this city and an especial source of danger. Privice, water-closets, drains, sewers, gutters, collections of decomposing matters, etc., may be disinfected by the following solution: To ten gallons of boiling water, add ten pounds of sulphate of iron (copperas) and one pint of crude oil or impure carbolic acid, and mix thoroughly. This solution will cost ten cents per gallon—less per barrel. The material can be purchased of druggists and grocers. To prevent infection of water-closets and privices, and to destroy odor, pour the solution into the pan or vault three or four times a day, at the rate of one pint a day for every four persons. Put your own premises in good condition at once; if your neighbor fails to do likewise inform the Health Officer. There should be no public funeral of persons dying of scarlet fever or diphtheria. Death of Lloyd Garrison. New York, May 24.—William Lloyd Garrison died at 11 o'clock to-night. William Lloyd Garrison was born at New York. THE SAN JUAN SPRINGS. The Record of a Flowered Visit to Them. Having heard much of the famous hot springs in the southern portion of Los Angeles county, I had determined to pay them a visit. Accordingly, a party of four of us started on the morning of the 26th, prepared and equipped a la mode for camping, on a pilgrimage to the shrine of the aqua caliente. We passed over the Santiago stage road as far as San Juan Capistrano; thence east through the canyon of the Mission Viejo, the place of destination, stopping by the way at the ranch of our friend, C. B. Rawson Esq., who spread for us a sumptuous dinner, after partaking of which we pursued our journey to within about ten miles of the springs, where we encamped for the night under the ambrageous foliage of a venerable sycamore, and resigned ourselves to "tired nature's sweet restorer, balmy sleep." The ranch of Mr. Rawson requires a passing notice. It is composed of mountain, foot-hill and plains, and embraces an area of about 20,000 acres. Upon which he has now feeding about 17,000 sheep. These are divided into ten bands, under the watch and care of as many herders. Scattered over the ranch are comfortable buildings for herders' quarters, and several wells of water. The ranch is also traversed by the Aliso Creek, and here and there are living springs, making it, altogether, one of the best watered ranches in the State. From Mr. Rawson's residence some of the finest landscape views are obtained, also from several of the hill-tops, taking in the ocean in the distance and the valleys and plains below. Did one wish to retire from the busy world, and seek solitude from the haunts of men, where they could enjoy nature in all its loveliness, no more charming spot could be found than at Rawson's Ranch. But to return: after a night's rest, we broke camp and wended our way up the Canyon over an excellent road, arriving AT THE SPRINGS About noon of the second day. The distance from Orange is as follows: To Rawson's, 17 miles; to San Juan Capistrano, 9 miles; to the Springs in all 41 miles. On San Francisco Market. Corrected weekly by Speer, Maude & Co., No. 316 and 318 Washington St. & P. At present the market is weak in all lines of produce, and tends downward, offering an uninviting outlook for holders and growers. BARLEY—Coast feed, $0@25c ¢ etl.

The Presbyterian Assembly. SARATOGA, N. Y., May 27th.—In the Presbyterian Assembly this morning, discussion continued on the question of reaffirming the deliverance of the assembly of 1875 upon the validity of Catholic baptism. The following was eventually adopted: Resolved That this Assembly is in full accordance with the words of our Confession of Faith respecting the Church of Rome and its so-called spiritual baptism, do now reaffirm that the deliverance upon this subject of the Assembly of 1835 as applying to the Romish heirarch headed by a Pope, falsely claiming to be the Church, which is opposed absolutely to the doctrines of Holy Scripture, is corrupting and degrading a large part of Christ's Church, over which it has usurped control. Thermometrical Record. The following is our record for the week ending Wednesday P.M., May 25th, giving lowest point by night preceding date, and highest by day: Death of Lloyd Garrison. New York, May 24.—William Lloyd Garrison died at 11 o'clock to night. William Lloyd Garrison was born at Newburyport, Mass., December 12, 1804. His inheritance was poverty and toil. At a suitable age he apprenticed himself and learned the printer's trade, and at seventeen commenced contributing to the daily press. In his twenty-second year he established the Newburyport Free Press, which failed. He then went to Boston, worked a while at his trade, and became editor of a total abstinence journal styled The National Philanthropist. His next change of base was to Bennington, Vt., where he acquired an interest in the Journal of the Times, and advocated the abolition of human slavery. This proved the stepping stone to his after fame and influence. He became an avowed agitator in the particular field he had chosen, and suffered many hardships and persecutions in propagating his views. At Baltimore, in 1830, he was convicted of a "gross and malicious libel" for denouncing as domestic piracy the shipping of a carload of slaves from that city to New Orleans, and was fined $50, which he could not pay, and was sent to jail. The owner of the ship also recovered $1000 in civil damages against him, which was collected. A New York merchant paid his fine, and he was liberated. Subsequently he published the Christian Examiner and the Liberator, at Boston, both being anti-slavery journals. In 1832 he visited England as the agent of the New England Anti-Slavery Society, and met Wilberforce, Broughman, Thompson, and other noted men of similar ideas. In 1835 a public anti-slavery meeting in Boston was broken up by a mob, and Garrison severely maltreated. He continued his agitation, in season and out of season, until the great events of the civil war rendered his efforts no longer necessary. He lived to see his ideas signally triumphant, and attained his 75th year. Quite a number of sapient people are calculating upon the Democracy's being hamstrung this year in California. These "smart Alcecks" are reckoning without their host. Upon the whole, we would rather take a straight-out Democratic nomination for office in this county than any other, however unpromising matters may look in May. There are a good many months between now and next September, and the claims of a manly and historical party are apt to grow in the estimation even of fools. Great national issues are on the stage, admitting of dramatic political situations, all of which are likely to be in favor of the poor man's party—the Democracy. No amount of ungrateful distance and the valleys and plains below. Did one wish to retire from the busy world, and seek solitude from the haunts of men, where they could enjoy nature in all its loveliness, no more charming spot could be found than at Rawson's Ranch. But to return: after a night's rest, we broke camp and wended our way up the Canyon over an excellent road, arriving AT THE SPRINGS About noon of the second day. The distance from Orange is as follows: To Rawson's, 17 miles; to San Juan Capistrano, 9 miles; to the Springs, 15 miles—in all, 41 miles. On our arrival the first thing was to select a camping place, which we located under a broad, spreading live-oak, which, venerable with years, had withstood the storms and upheavals of ages. After preparing and par-taking, with sharpened appetites, of a humble repast, we started on a stroll to view the wonders of this volcanic region. The Canyon here is about two hundred yards in width, bounded on either side by mountains from six hundred to fifteen hundred feet in height, and so steep and abrupt on the south side as to be difficult of ascent. On the north the range is more divided into distinct hills and ridges, while along the bottom of the Canyon flows a stream of pure, soft water, which affords further up, a plenty of mountain trout to TEMPT THE WARY ANGLER, Who delights in this kind of sport, besides affording the most delicious of table delicacies. The springs are five in number, and flow from the northern slope and about fifty feet above the creek, emptying their thermal waters into it below. These springs are strongly impregnated with sulphur and are of the temperature of about 106'. They are situated near together and on an area of not more than three or four rods square. Below them some fifty yards are two ether springs of lower temperature or about 100° Fahrenheit, making seven in all. Down at the foot of the slope and on the bank of the creek is a spring of pure cold water, contrasting in extreme with the thermal springs above. There are no improvements here; all is in a state of nature. The visitors to them have to improvise their own bath-houses, which consist of boots merely, formed of bushes. A gentleman who has an EXTENSIVE BEE RANCH On the opposite side of the creek has erected a passable bathing trough and enclosed it with bushes which he kindly allows visitors to use, but as a rule those who resort here for the benefit of health must be prepared to supply themselves with whatever facilities they require. Were the place properly fitted up with convenient bath-houses, boarding houses, etc., it would become one of great public resort for invalids suffering from chronic diseases, especially rheumatism, the various skin diseases, syphilis, etc., but without suitable facilities they are of little practical value; for to go into a bath as hot as can be borne and then have to dress in the open air sheltered only by bushes, de-affect if indeed it do not strung this year in California. These "smart Alecks" are reckoning without their host. Upon the whole, we would rather take a straight-out Democratic nomination for office in this county than any other, however unpromising matters may look in May. There are a good many months between now and next September, and the claims of a manly and historical party are apt to grow in the estimation even of fools. Great national issues are on the stage, admitting of dramatic political situations, all of which are likely to be in favor of the poor man's party—the Democracy. No amount of ungrateful treason in our ranks can debar us from the benefit of that chapter of accidents which will probably pitch in the direction of preserving the Republic, however Kearney and the Republican party may try to give it away. "Possess your souls in patience" is a scriptural maxim which Democrats should just now lay to heart. After a Democratic nomination, amidst all the blare of trumpets and clash of cymbals, proceeding from the New Constitution and the Workingman's parties, we should prefer a Republican. By this statement of suppositions facts, which we believe will be verified this Fall, is annahilated the ambition of many a disappointed and selfish place-seeker.—Los Angeles Herald. The Warner Silver bill, which has passed the House, provides that the Government will hereafter coin all the bullion sold to it at the rate prevailing in the New York and San Francisco markets, charging the difference between the cost of the bullion and the par value of the dollar coined for the coinage. The legal dollar is to contain 412 grains trey, so that the charge for coinage at the present rate of bullion will be about 15 cents on each dollar. These dollars are to be legal tender, except where gold contracts are specially entered into, and the Secretary of the Treasury is directed to pay out, without discrimination, the same as gold coin in liquidation of all ordinary claims against the Government. Subsidiary silver coin is legal tender in some not exceeding $20. This bill is intended to counteract the effects of the European single gold-standard countries to demonstrare and depressiate silver, and in direly in the teeth of the combinations made in Europe prejudicial to the coinage and circulation of silver money. DEFRIVE POOR PEOPLE From using them. The time, however, is not far distant when they will be improved, and become a place of great public resort. They are very similar to the thermal springs in Arkansas now visited yearly by thousands in search of health. I was unable to learn whether any analysis had ever been made of these waters, but that they are of high medicinal value there is no doubt, and that they should be utilized for the benefit of suffering humanity is equally true. By this time you are ready to ask, Did you take a bath? Yes, and such a bath! A scald indeed. Imagine one plunging into water within six degrees of boiling. Well, we did it, and we lived through it, and we felt the better for it. It was severe at first, but as soon as the temperature of the body and the water became equalized, a soothing influence such as we never before experienced was produced, and we were happy. A few feet below the springs is a conical mound, rising six to eight feet above the surface of the surrounding earth, not unlike the CRATER OF A VOLCANO. And in the center an opening some two or three feet in diameter. This is filled with a liquid clay of a soft, putty-like consistency, down which long poles have been thrust without impediment, and which I was told had been thrown open by an earthquake during the last year. That this is a volcanic region, there is every appearance. But I will reserve any further description until my next. MARRIED. BALDWIN—HAMILTON—In Orange, at the residence of W. E.
