WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY...APRIL 22, 1882 The crank who fired at Queen Victoria some time ago has had a trial, and the jury has rendered a verdict of not guilty on the ground of insanity. The verdict, however, does not set the prisoner free. On the contrary, he suffers imprisonment "during her Majesty's pleasure," or in other words, for life. In the House on Wednesday Berry, of California, asked and obtained unanimous consent to call up for consideration the bill creating additional collection districts in California. On motion of Hollman, of Indiana, an amendment to it was adopted reducing to $2,500 the salaries of the collectors at San Diego, Wilmington and Humboldt, California. The bill then passed. Rev. Mr. Hamilton, whose sudden death in Oakland the other day has been noticed, in a late sermon propounded the following significant question: "If it is not our individual duty to go forth on a crusade against some evil, to our financial ruin, why is it the duty of the newspaper proprietor?" Perhaps some of the great army of people who think they know how to run a newspaper will condescend to reply. The Mormon delegate to Congress, Cannon, has been fired out. A vote was taken in the House on the minority report of the Committee declaring Cannon elected. The report was rejected by a vote of 79 to 123. The report of the majority of the Committee, declaring that neither Cannon nor Campbell were entitled to a seat in Congress was adopted without division. So Utah is at present unrepresented at the Capitol. Numerous arrests of suspected nihilists are occurring throughout Russia, and the INNOVATIONS IN CHURCH METHODS. The lack of interest in matters religious and the consequent paucity of attendance at the churches is a subject invariably reverted to at every synod, presbytery or stated convocation of ministers. But while they spend hours in deploring such a condition of things, they take up but a few minutes in suggesting a remedy; and it is to be inferred that these remedies are impractical and abortive, because they apparently have no effect in curing the evil complained of. On the principle that the end justifies the means, it would be well for ministers whose congregations are slim to adopt in some degree the methods which more worldly and sinful men would adopt. Those pastors who feel no compunction of conscience in adding to the funds of the church through the medium of fairs, with their accompaniment of grab-bags, post-offices and other mild swindles, should not hesitate to adopt whatever worldly device would be most effective in drawing to the church those who, under ordinary circumstances, could not be induced to hear the Word preached, nor the doctrine of Salvation expounded. In fact, there are some preachers whose success in filling their churches is due solely to an assumed eccentricity of style; and who knows what a power of good they accomplish by adopting this harmless device? Logic, eloquence and warning are all thrown away and wasted when hurled at a congregation of Christians; it is sinners that require preaching to, and the special mission of the minister is, or ought to be, to "call sinners to repentance." These thoughts occurred to us a couple of Sundays ago after an attendance at the evening services in the Metropolitan Temple at San Francisco. In last week's paper we described Kaloch as a politician; to-day we will speak of him as a minister. Whether the results of his ministerial work is as effective as the results of his political schemes is a matter of doubt; but that he has discovered the way to draw large audiences, and to preach in a plain, matter-of-fact and interesting way, is a matter of no doubt at THE FREEDOM EDITOR GAZETTE falling while I seed to the sowers everything that is and sustaining class under them (and there are manyeties of food) weof the list.

The report of the majority of the Committee, declaring that neither Cannon nor Campbell were entitled to a seat in Congress was adopted without division. So Utah is at present unrepresented at the Capitol. Numerous arrests of suspected nihilists are occurring throughout Russia, and the machinations of the discontented, instead of becoming less numerous, seem to be continually increasing and growing manifest. The other day a basket of eggs was sent as a present to the Prefect of Police of St. Petersburg. Some suspicion was aroused, and the eggs were carefully examined, and were found to have been emptied of their natural contents and charged with dynamite, the orifice being closed carefully. The legal proceedings in the case of the Ford Brothers, who killed the outlaw, Jesse James, were remarkably—we may say suspiciously—quick. The Grand Jury of St. Joe, Missouri, brought in an indictment of murder in the first degree against them on Monday; in the afternoon of the same day the brothers pleaded guilty in Court and were immediately sentenced to be hanged. All this looks very serious on the surface, but the true inwardness of it is that the Governor will grant the condemned men a free pardon. In fact, if anybody is to be hung for the killing of James, Governor Crittenden, by his own admission, should be one of the party. He was cognizant of the programme which had been agreed upon to kill the outlaw, and approved of it. There are few people who blame either the slayers or those who were accessory before the fact. The ena justified the means. Since the above was placed in type, the telegraph brings the intelligence that our guess was correct. Governor Crittenden has pardoned the Fords unconditionally. The House of Representatives passed the new Chinese bill on Monday by the very decided vote of 201 in the affirmative and only 37 in the negative. The bill is substantially the same as the one which the President vetoed, except that the restrictive clause is reduced from twenty years to ten years. The twenty-year feature was the main sticking point in the lost bill. Kasson of Iowa made this plain when he said in debate on Monday that, from his knowledge as a lawyer, he knew that the other bill would be vetoed, and hence he voted against it. He thought this in full accord with the treaty, and would be approved. He would, therefore, vote for this bill, as it did not infringe upon the rights of commerce. The bill has gone to the Senate, and there is ground for hope that it will pass. Some amendments to it have been proposed, but the friends of the bill think they have no minister is, or ought to be, to "call sinners to repentance." These thoughts occurred to us a couple of Sundays ago after an attendance at the evening services in the Metropolitan Temple at San Francisco. In last week's paper we described Kalloch as a politician; to-day we will speak of him as a minister. Whether the results of his ministerial work is as effective as the results of his political schemes is a matter of doubt; but that he has discovered the way to draw large audiences, and to preach in a plain, matter-of-fact and interesting way, is a matter of no doubt at all. The choir of seventeen voices, with the accompaniment of the grand organ, furnishes of itself an entertainment which would prove an immense attraction. The effect is enhanced by the grouping of the choir on the stage in full view of the audience; and as most of the nine lady singers are remarkably pretty and reasonably young—and as the interior of the edifice bears a near resemblance to the interior of other places of amusement—it is easy to forget that you are in an alleged church and not in some "hightoned" concert hall. For a full half hour there was a constant succession of excellent musical efforts—the words of the pieces sung being of course religious and the music semi-religious. One young lady sang a solo, previously advancing from the group of singers and standing on the front of the platform, and several duets were rendered by others of the choir, who also stood forth from the others and performed their parts in the same way as professional singers—minus the smiles, quirks and bows which are so much the stock-in-trade of the average concert singer. The voices of the singers, without exception, were remarkably good—much superior, indeed, to those of a much-vaulted opera company performing in the city at the same time. In this musical entertainment (which, by the way, was heartily and often applauded by the audience) lies in a great measure the reason for the large attendance at the Temple. A large percentage of those attending no doubt came to hear the singing and had perforce to remain and hear the preaching—which no doubt is the end aimed at by the pastor. Passing the semi-political fifteen-minute prelude with which Kalloch always begins his evening services, we will refer briefly to the sermon proper. It was based on the text: "And there shall be a resurrection of the dead." His treatment of the subject was in strictly orthodox fashion, and in the main he was logical, eloquent and earnest. It was noticeable, however, that at the tame passages in the sermon, when there was no special call for earnestness, he suffered his voice to lapse into the sneering, metallic, hard tone he often assumes when speaking on political subjects. His audience applauded him loudly several times—another innovation of itself harmless, and doubtless gratifying and inspiring to the preacher. Reverting again to the subject of church attendance, why should not other preachers over budded trees of fruit, and make these the pits from carefully selected that will come true putted point in horrific experience, and more every year. The very full this year shape as a fruit and to recommend it, but to curl leat, and less qualities than mankind. However, no familial out one, since it ripes when there is no oak on early.

The bill has gone to the Senate, and there is ground for hope that it will pass. Some amendments to it have been proposed, but the friends of the bill think they can defeat the amendments. The vote on the bill in the House shows that of the 201 members voting in the affirmative 94 were Republicans and 107 Democrats, and of the 37 opponents of the measure 34 were Republicans and 3 Democrats. Brownsville, Missouri, has been devastated by a tornado. Seven persons were killed instantly and about fifty injured. An explosion occurred in the Black House colliery at Sunderland, (England), on Tuesday. Thirty persons were killed. Seven others were rescued, badly injured. Three thousand children of deceased wives' sisters are presently to assemble at Exeter Hall, London, and clamor for the repeal of the law which makes them illegitimate. The arrivals at Castle Garden, New York, indicate the immigration of nearly a million this year. Through the efforts in Europe of agents for the new railways, a vast tide is being turned toward the Southwest. How to cook carp Polonese manner is thus described: Wash the carp, gut them carefully, and cut them to pieces. After having done this, you overspread the bottom of a stew-pan with little slices of some onions, with parsley roots, laurel leaves, cleavers and slices of a lemon. Then you put the fish upon this, add a piece of ginger-bread, some butter and salt, and pour half a bottle of Heck and half a bottle of Bordeaux wine over the whole so that the fish is perfectly covered by it. The fish, having sufficiently boiled, you take it out of the pan, sift the fish soup, and appetize it to your taste. For a fish of three pounds this receipt will do for a bigger carp you must take more wine. Fine Black Writing Ink. To a quart of clear soft water add four ounces of well-bruised Aleppe galls, and enclose in a clean bottle for ten days. The cork should fit tightly, and the mixture be shaken frequently. Next, add half an ounce of lump sugar and one and one-fourth ounce of gum arabic, dissolved in cold water. Mix well. Add now one and one-half ounce of powdered sulphate of iron, and shake the whole mixture frequently for two or three days, afterwards setting it aside for one week. This will make an ink which, though pale at first using, will turn to an intense and beautiful black in a very short time. Rats in Granaries. A correspondent of the Journal d'Agriculture Progressive suggests a method of getting rid of these pests, that has the advantage of having been most successful in his own case. It is to fill their holes with chloride of lime and oxalic acid, when a violent disengagement of chlorine takes place, their holes are filled with this gas, and they are suffocated. Paris, April 15th. Five thousand employees, representing every trade connected with the manufacture of iron, struck against the proposal of their masters to deduct 40 centimes on every 100 francs wages, to be applied to the payment of insurance premiums of the men against accidents. THE FRUIT OUTLOOK. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Another fine rain is falling while I write this, which will give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; and everything that man requires for building and sustaining his physical body may be classed under the latter head, amongst which (and there are many opinions and great varieties of food) we certainly place fruit at head of the list. Because of its subtle action upon the brain and nervous system it, more than any other, is essential to man's highest welfare, seeing that from the center of the nervous system—the brain—proceeds all power to achieve and accomplish. The man of fine brain and nervous power will accomplish more and his influence will be greater than the man who merely toils with his muscular force. But what about the fruit season? There will without doubt be an abundance of peaches, especially the seedlings, which bear a good crop every year. Of these I have a good many raised from pits of good peaches, chiefly the Crawford variety. Some of these seedlings I would not exchange for the finest budded fruit I have seen, seeing that they are more sure in their fruit-bearing qualities, finer in flavor and equally large in size and as beautiful in appearance. Visitors who have seen these trees in fruit for the first time look quite incredulous at me when I tell them that they are seedling trees until I explain that I planted the pits and set them out myself just as they grew from the seed. Seedling peach trees have many good points over budded trees, being more sure bearers of fruit, and make a larger, better shaped and more vigorous tree; but in order to get these the pits from fine seedling fruit must be carefully selected in order to have roots that will come true to seed. This often disputed point in horticulture I have proved by experience, and make a point of raising some every year. The Australian Saucer peach is very full this year; excepting its singular shape as a fruit and good flavor it has little to recommend it, being tough skinned, liable to curl leaf, and less reliable in fruit bearing qualities than many other budded varieties. A SENSATION. SAN JOSE, April 17.—The contest of the will of the late Senator George F. Baker was before Judge Spencer to-day. Miss Lulu Baker and Charles W. Baker filed consent to the revocation of the will. James W. Rea, executor, did not unite with them in the consent, but tied a statement declining to contest. The matter therefore stood practically settled by consent. The Court took the testimony of Mrs. Baker—mother of the deceased—Miss Lulu Baker, Charles W. Baker and others as to Senator Baker's mental condition at the time the will was made, which was during the session of the Legislature of which he was a member. The testimony was briefly, that the deceased was suffering from disease of the liver; was irritable, fretful, talked in his sleep, and was at times, when ill, flighty: that he suffered much pain, wanted his mother to convey the homestead to him, and was angry that she would not: that the deceased's father left an estate worth about $80,000, which was turned over to the deceased and retained by him: that Senator Baker's animosity to his brother Charles was groundless, and accounted for by nothing in the letter referred to in the will. No testimony was offered on the other side, and he who a few weeks ago was followed to the grave by the largest cortege of mourners that ever thus honored any person in Santa Clara county, not one of whom ever dreamed that he, at the best period of his activity, was an incompetent person, declared to be without mental ability to make a will. The course pursued in this matter has caused much comment, and indignation is expressed that no effort was made to protect the memory of the deceased from the aspersion of insanity.

This often disputed point in horticulture I have proved by experience, and make a point of raising some every year. The Australian Saucer peach is very full this year; excepting its singular shape as a fruit and good flavor it has little to recommend it, being tough skinned, liable to curl leaf, and less reliable in fruit bearing qualities than many other budded varieties. However, no family orchard should be without one, since it ripens its fruit just at a time when there is no other peach ripe—it is second early. The Wilder and "Governor Garland" are two new varieties said to be the earliest of the early, but probably Southern California has seen none of their fruit yet. I shall know this season, or at furthest next, whether their reputation will hold good here or not, as I have some trees that I am testing. Other fruit trees are a mass of bloom, and seeing that the danger of a late frost is over we may look for an abundance of fruit the coming season. Last evening we had a very slight frost, but it did not even touch young tomatoes or melon plants. The apple and pear trees are just bursting their fruit blossoms and from the vigorous appearance of the trees we shall doubtless have heavy crops of these fine fruits. Apricot trees have set fine crops of fruit already which is now as large as a filbert. Some people complain about not having enough, like Oliver Twist they want "more." Fortunately for our higher good and the unfoldment of our better nature we are placed in a world where we do not get all we want. Those who from childhood experience this condition of self-gratification invariably become the most miserable of people and give others the most trouble. They are never satisfied with things as they find them. We are, however, thankful for the prospect of a heavy fruit crop, and are beginning to calculate in what manner we had best utilize it. G. R.

The members pledge themselves not to employ Chinese or to purchase of them, nor to patronize those who do. Sheriff Williams of Douglass county, Nevada, was stabbed, probably fatally, on Sunday at Genoa, by Jerry Raycraft. He was attempting to arrest Raycraft, when the latter drew a knife and plunged it into the small of Williams' back four inches deep. Raycraft had been engaged in a fight and was disturbing the peace. Alfred Den was thrown from his horse at Dos Pueblos, Santa Barbara county, on Wednesday. His foot caught in the stirrup and he was dragged over the rocks, crushing his skull and killing him almost instantly. The deceased was a young man, about 27 years old, and was highly esteemed throughout the county. The Parrott-Donohoe wedding in San Francisco on Wednesday was signalized by some notable features. The bride received presents to the amount of about $350,000, consisting of bonds, real estate, jewelry, etc. A special benediction was received from the Pope.

CLEVELAND, April 18.—The Herald's Fremont special says that on Sunday an unknown tramp went to the dwelling of Theodore Marshy in Reilly township while the older members of the family were at church, and only a son aged-13 and a daughter aged 11 years being at home. After ransacking the rooms for valuables he poured powder on the floor, then with an uplifted ax compelled the children to bend over the powder, which he lighted, and then fled. The boy was burned shockingly on the head and face, and the girl on the body. The people of the neighborhood threaten to lych the tramp if he is caught. —The following real estate transactions occurred during the week: W G Curtis to R D Curtis—Lot 20 Anaheim extension; $1,000.

Center Street, Anaheim, Cal. THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1897, which injured or destroyed scores of Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy gale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known, one of the California Mills put up by the underigned escaped injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE, (4 different lengths) in the case and noiselessness of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold.
