WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY... AUGUST 26, 1882 After December 1st, in the State of New York, the person who attempts to commit suicide, and fails, is liable to be punished as a felon. His own life is to be of as much value as another person's in this light, and the unsuccessful attempt on it will be punished, in one way, as an attempt to kill. This is reviving in part the old common law, which made self-murder a felony—felso de se. The trains on the California Southern are now running from San Diego to Colton and are doing a good freight business. The freight tariff is claimed to be the lowest in California. The distance between the two points named is 123 miles and the rate is 40 cents per hundred pounds. The distance between Wilmington and Colton is only 80 miles, but the Southern Pacific charges 42 cents per hundred pounds between those places. This state of affairs will not continue long; there will be either a war or a combination—most likely the latter. John Bright has been asked by a Manchester gentleman to define his position in regard to war, and has made a reply. He says he believes that all the English wars since the time of William III might have been avoided on principles which do not require the absolute condemnation of war in every possible case that can be suggested or imagined. "The policy and aspect of our country and the world," he adds, "will be changed if the demon war is left to cases in which there seems to Christian and rational men no escape from the miseries it inflicts upon mankind." To the many curious atmospheric disturbances of 1882 is now added a cold spell in August from Chicago. The propeller Menomine reports encountering a thick cold cloud which burst on her decks, covering them to the depth of six inches with snow and slush. As all the officers and passengers confirm the To the many curious atmospheric disturbances of 1882 is now added a cold spell in August from Chicago. The propeller Menomine reports encountering a thick cold cloud which burst on her decks, covering them to the depth of six inches with snow and slush. As all the officers and passengers confirm the story there is no room for doubting it. We suppose that failing all other methods for accounting for this strange phenomenon it can safely be laid at the doors of the aurora borealis of last April, which was big enough and bright enough to carry on its shoulders any little freaks of nature such as the foregoing. There is something pathetic in the following appeal, but we fear that the calloused thief will be deaf to the entreaty: "I am a blind man. I have been earning a scanty living by the use of an electric machine at picnics, excursions and other places of resort. On Saturday, Aug. 12, I attended a picnic of the Church of St. Vincent de Paul, at Elm Park. On returning in the evening on the Ninth avenue elevated road my machine was stolen by some person who could not have been aware that it was the only means of subsistence of one who is too poor to purchase another. Your publication of this letter may be the means of restoring to its owner an article by which he makes his living, poor though it may be." Without intending to do it, says the Alta, California has virtually abolished capital punishment. A few years ago a clause was put into the law enabling jurors, in returning verdicts of murder in the first degree, to stipulate, if they wished, that the penalty should be imprisonment for life. The object was, doubtless, to provide a punishment which juries would be less loath to inflict than they would that of hanging, in cases where palliating circumstances existed or there was a slight doubt as to the evidence. But from the frequency with which verdicts of murder have recently been returned accompanied by recommendations to imprisonment for life, it would appear that the humanity of juries is leading them in the direction of total dismeasure of the death penalty. If the substitution of imprisonment for hanging leads to convictions in cases that would otherwise result in acquittal and this is by all odds the strongest argument which the friends of unconditional abolition of capital punishment have been able to make—it is an undeniable benefit. Certainty of punishment is more important in the repression of crime than secrecy, and about the liability of extreme penalties to defeat their own objects there can be no question. Every once in a while there are startling mentions some time prior to the death of Garfield. Cornell came to me and asked me to take an interest in his blind pool. I at first declined. He was very urgent, saying he could not make it a success unless I would lend him my name to get those of Russell Sage and Sidney Dillon. He said if I would do this it would be doing him the greatest favor I could possibly do him. Being thus pressed I reluctantly consented to take an interest. I induced Sage and Dillon also to take an interest. The Governor has not yet rendered an account of his stewardship. Common reports say he has made some hundred thousand dollars out of the pool, so that I am expecting a good round check by way of dividend, unless, indeed, the Governor wants to have me accept his veto of the Elevated Railroad bill as my dividend. The Governor, having this agreement signed by us giving him authority to buy, let the fact leak out in the street among his friends. They naturally concluded that if the Governor was going to buy so large an amount, the stock would be a great purchase, and they had better step in and take some, thus making a large market. The Governor very shrewdly went the other way, which under our agreement he had a right to do, and made a very large sale at high prices. After he had got out his line and sold his stock, he abandoned the American District Telegraph, of which he was the main pillar up to that time. Then, presto, change, a new company came upon the scene, the Mutual District Telegraph Company, which appears to be a company gotten up by the managers of the American District Telegraph, under Cornell. They knocked the prices of American District Telegraph from $75 down to $25, so the Governor made both ways." It is alleged that among the abuses perpetrated by the railroad corporation is the frequent one of first ascertainment what produce will fetch at the point of destination and then charging for transportation as much as the traffic will bear. An Oakland doctor, Selldge by name, has evidently given some thought to this peculiar feature of railroad management and has adapted it to the conduct of his own business. In his first attempt, however, he has run against a legal snag which seems not to have entered into his calculations. The facts of the case seem to be that Mrs. Lobella Stewart, who recently died in Oakland, was found to have lost $7,800 in money, although she lived like a peper and was always supposed to be one. For two years previous to her death Dr. Selldge attended her occasionally, never expecting to get anything for his services, as his patient was apparently without funds, but when a search of her effects revealed the presence of so much coin he rendered the following bill to the administrator: "To medical services, including drugs and medicines rendered and furnished from May 7, 1880 to May 8, 1882—24 months at the rate of $275 per month, $6,600." Before he gets this money he has first convince the Court that the fee is a just one—a difficult task, perhaps; but great is the power of cheek and this Oakland medicine seems to be well endowed with that article.

These institutions, so well adapted for the perpetration of crime, are undoubtedly utilized by designing persons to remove from their path those who would balk their schemes, and it is a recognized fact that outrages of the most flagrant kind are chargeable to the existence of these asylums. As an illustration of this, we quote the following news paragraph: Austin McNamara, who has been confined for four years in the Queen's County Asylum for the Insane, and who, it is alleged, has never been insane, was before Justice Barnard in Brooklyn in connection with the application for his discharge. When McNamara was in court a week ago he impressed the Justice as wholly sane, and when questioned by the Court he said that two men had been murdered in the cell in the asylum next to his own. When Justice Barnard called up the case, Justice Armstrong, who appeared for the asylum, said that the asylum authorities did not wish to appear as resisting. McNamara's discharge, and he would make no objection to it. Justice Barnard said that McNamara seemed to be rational enough, and that he would have discharged him a week before, but he wished to give the gentlemen in charge of the asylum a chance to say something, as they had held him in keeping for four years, and claimed to have held him by virtue of a commitment. He then ordered McNamara's discharge. Mr. McNamara, who is an old man, feelingly responded to the congratulations. When surprise was expressed in his presence that the asylum authorities did not respond to his charges that two men had been murdered during his stay there, he said: "They don't dare stand an inquiry into the state of things at the asylum." Judge Sawyer, of the United States Circuit Court, has rendered a decision in the case of the County of Kern vs. The Southern Pacific Railroad Company. The decision involves the question as to the power of the State to interfere with or prevent the various counties compromising the tax cases brought by them against the Railroad Company. The question involved is one of great importance to every county in the State, for it insures to them the power to compromise all such cases, which has hitherto been a serious question. The application was by Attorney-General Hart, who desired to intervene and take charge of the case for the county of Kern, superseding the attorney of record. Judge Sawyer decided that it would be improper to allow the application, and denied it. "Then you are paying attention to old Grinder's daughter, are you, my son?" "Yes, mother; I have waited upon Miss Grinder somewhat. She's a nice sort of girl. Father got money." "Precious little good that'll do you, my son. He's the closest man in these parts." "But you know, mother, he can't live forever, and—" "Don't you be too sure. I've known old Grinder for forty years, and he hasn't died yet." This set the young man to thinking. — New Haven Register. "Gentlemen, I want to announce right here," he said as he stood up and laid his hand on the shoulder of the sleeping-car porter, "that this is an honest fellow. In my absent-mindedness, a few minutes ago, I gave him a half dollar for a quarter. He has returned it to me." "Yes, sah—yes, sah," replied the porter, as he ducked his head and scraped his foot; "yes, sah, kase it's got a hole in it, sah, an' I reekoned you was tryin' to beat me outer ten cents!" — Free Press. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Last Friday Mr. Frank Patterson had one of the bones of his arm broken just above the wrist, while at work on the well tools near Pomona. A chain broke and threw the weight suddenly upon his crank and jerked it away from him. Before he could get out of the way it hit him several times. He is getting on very well now. What is the matter with our mad service? There is gross carelessness either on the route from here to Los Angeles, or in the Los Angeles postoffice. We frequently hear of letters being a week or ten days going from here to Los Angeles or from there here. We learn that Mr. Swayze is about to get his horses that were stolen some time ago. He has found them up North somewhere. Mr. A. L. Taylor was down last Tuesday after his well tools. He is going to bore for Mr. Philips near Spadra. Mr. W. H. Bently was home last Sunday. He reports that the thresher is doing well and plenty of work. The party that returned from Laguna last Saturday reported having a good time. Mr. L. Winston and Mrs. W. F. Poor were visiting here the first of the week. Measrs. Fulson and Harmon are to commence baling hay here next Monday. We hear there are to be two sociables here next week but have had no notices handed in yet. As it has been quite a while since we had a social, and it is good moonlight, no doubt it will be well patronized. Mr. Geo. Hull has bought the house and lot owned by Mr. A. E. White and will move in about a week. He also bought the vacant lot adjoining from Mr. Porter. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. James G. Blaine of Maine will stump California for the Republican ticket this fall. A married Campbellite pastor named Alvin C. Cook has eloped from Engene City, Oregon, with a widow named Kiggs. Winnemucca, the old Piute chief, has taken a new wife. This is his seventh wife. TELEGRAPHIC. MILWAUKEE, Aug. 23.-The ceremony of conferring the White Veil on fifty-two young ladies, is now in progress at St. Mary's Convent. BROWNSVILLE, Tex., Aug. 24.-There are sixty-two new cases of yellow fever to-day and two deaths. The streets are quarantined and guards have been sworn to aid in confining the yellow fever to the present limits. Three cases of fever have been developed in Fort Brown. The troops are scattering into the camps near by. WASHINGTON, August 24.-The women who were successful in securing appointments in the Departments at Washington, and afterward organized a mutual protective association, propose to create a scandal by exposing the Congressmen who use their influence to get improper persons into the Departments. ASHLAND (Ill.), August 20.-At midnight on Saturday night six men forced an entrance to Eli Cox's house, five miles north of this city, and secured $40 in money. Upon the refusal of the old man to reveal the supposed hiding place of a large sum, the robbers hung him up three times and then burned his hands and feet in a horrible manner. The robbers then left the premises. DENVER, Aug. 21.-Quite a stir was created to-day by a telegram from Nutt, N.M., stating that the manager of the Sierra Grande mine had a mass of horn silver, weighing 10,000 pounds and valued at over $60,000, taken from the mine yesterday, which he desired to send here, if the masses previously sent were smaller than this. He was instructed to send it. WACKINS, N.Y., August 23.-The Free-Thinkers' Convention met this morning. Three hundred people were present. Among the prominent speakers was Mrs. H. T. Lake of California. Various committees were appointed after which several blasphemous advails that the remarkable story telegraphed from Alabama about the alleged conspiracy among the blacks to murder all the whites in Choctaw county, is an invention of the Bulldozers, and that the hanging of Jack Turner without trial is only the beginning of another season of political terrorism. A telegram from Globe, A. T., says: Curtis B. Hawley, Lafayette Grimes and Cicero Grimes, the men who robbed Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express and killed Andy Hall, the messenger, and Dr. W. F. Vail, on the 20th, within a few miles of Globe, have been apprehended and will certainly pay the penalty of their terrible acts with their lives. Lafayette Grimes has made a full confession, recounting every particular. Cicero Grimes was not present during the robbery or killing, but he was in the affair from its incipiency, with the exception of the time referred to. It is a question in the present excited state of our citizens whether or not they will be allowed a preliminary hearing. The money ($5000) has not yet been recovered. Hawley, the ringleader, took charge of it, and as he is presumed to be an old offender and one of those engaged in the Mountain Meadow massacre, it is not likely that he will "peach" or make restitution until he is certain that daylight is about to fade. [Hawley and L. V. Grimes were subsequently hanged by a mob. Cicero Grimes was taken by the officers to a place of safety.] PACIFIC COAST NEWS. James G. Blaine of Maine will stump California for the Republican ticket this fall. A married Campbellite pastor named Alvin C. Cook has eloped from Eugene City, Oregon, with a widow named Kiggs. Winnemucca, the old Piute chief, has taken a new wife. This is his seventh wife, and he is nearly 100 years old. A fire at Red Bluff on the night of the 18th instant destroyed three of the best business blocks in the town. B. B. Redding, a well-known railroad man, died in San Francisco on Monday of apoplexy. Don B. Aguilar, an old and respected citizen of San Diego county, was found dead at his home in Guatay Valley, having been shot twice. "Chap" Hazlett put the muzzle of a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger with his foot. Instant death. It happened four miles south of Tehama. The Truckee Republican says it has been a bad year for fingers at the sawmills in that region. Sixteen fingers and thumbs are reported to have been cut off this spring in the mills at Boca and Camp 16. George Cook, the gambler, who sold a counterfeit gold brick to a Truckee Chinaman for $500, was convicted in the Superior Court of obtaining money under false pretences. Near Visalia on Tuesday Len Hahn, a colored man, shot and mortally wounded his wife, killed his stepdaughter, fourteen years old, and severely wounded another stepdaughter, aged ten, with an ax. His escaped before news of the tragedy reached town. Mrs. Alice Hatton, wife of W. E. Hatton, at one time night foreman of the Richmond Furnace, was accidentally killed on Thursday at Nevada City. They were living in a house covered with a mud roof, and it caved in, striking Mrs. Hatton with such force as to break her neck. Johnnie N. Sullivan, a two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. James Sullivan of Oakland, died from the effects of a dose of carbolic acid, a bottle of which had been carelessly left within its reach. The acid had been used by the nurse girl for a sprained ankle. The two-year-old boy of David Smith met his death in a singular manner at Batavia, Solano county, on Monday. Several children had been playing in a swing in the barn. They left the little boy there, and when they came back the child was found hanging in the swing.

He was instructed to send it. WATKINS, N. Y., August 23. — The Free-Thinkers' Convention met this morning. Three hundred people were present. Among the prominent speakers was Mrs. H. T. Lake of California. Various committees were appointed, after which several blasphemous addresses were made. George Miln, who was dismissed from Unity Church in Chicago, and who is about to make his debut on the stage as "Hamlet," lectures to night on the strength and wickedness of the Church. DALLAS, (Texas) Aug. 20. — One of the heaviest rains ever known, continuing for three days and nights without intermission, stopped falling in Western Texas last night. Some places, where tradition says it never rains, have the appearance of a sea. The rainfall is estimated at six feet. The flooded section begins near Abilene and extends west for near three hundred miles, including the country from Brazos to Pecos rivers. Miles of the track of the Texas-Pacific road are damaged, and in several places serious washouts occurred. It is feared that great loss of life and stock has occurred. CHICAGO, Aug. 22. — Messrs. White and Doble, California owners of Mono Chief, a short time since issued a challenge offering to trot their stallion against Von Armin, owned by Commodore W. N. Kettson, of St. Paul, for $2500 a side. Eubb Doble announced that the challenge has been accepted and the race will take place at Minneapolis during the fair week in September. Col King dds $700 to these figures making a total to the winner of $7500. The race promises to be a sensational one on account of the noted character of the horses concerned and the prominence of their owners. OMAHA, August 21st. — Saturday night, about 11 o'clock, as Mr. Wolsey and son, accompanied by Al Squires, of this city, were driving home from town, they were halted a short distance from Florence by a man, who said, "Your money or your life." Squires pulled a revolver and shot the man in the neck, killing him instantly. The dead highwayman proved to be Emanuel D. Schrader, of Company R. Ninth Infantry. Fort Omaha. He was out on a drunken spree with James F. Flintwell, William F. Donald and J. Dawson, of the Fourtn Infantry. These four had earlier in the evening robbed Frank Lewen of $6. Flintwell, who was with Schrader when he halted the team, yelled to Squires not to shoot, as Schrader was drunk but it was too late. Flintwell, McDonald and Dawson are all in custody. Squires and Wolsey gave themselves up this morning, and will be discharged. Schrader was an LOS ANGELES MARKETS. Corrected weekly for the Gazette by E.

The delicate appearance of one of them excited the suspicion of some people, who accused him of being a girl in male clothing. She burst into tears, and confessed that the accusation was true, and that she had wandered about the State for two years in boy's clothing to escape the revenge of a lover, who threatened to kill her for refusing to elope with him. Her name is Esther Miller. She was taken in charge by some ladies of Chico and provided with female apparel.

On last Saturday as the "mule's relief," the motor of the street railway at Austin, Nev., was ascending the grade, the steam brakes broke while on a steep grade, and the engine became unmanageable, and as it was turning a curve fell over, burying Andy Wright, the engineer, under the wreck, killing him instantly and mangling his body in a terrible manner. At Bakersfield on Sunday a Mexican woman named Remijia Polamino, stabbed and killed a Chinaman named Chue Lung with a pair of scissors. The woman was arrested. The Chinaman had been in her employ as cook and general steward, and had recently been discharged for petty thieving, but he claimed she owed him for his services. An altercation took place between them which ended in his being stabbed in the abdomen. It has just been discovered that Berkey, County Clerk of Sacramento, is delinquent to the State in the sum of $12,731 for money collected on account of delinquent taxes in 1879. The money was collected from delinquent tax-payers in San Francisco county, and is due the Collector of the county. Berkey was nominated on the 10th inst. for Sheriff by the Sacramento County Republican Convention, but will be removed at once from the ticket by the County Central Committee.

MOBILE, Aug. 22. — In Choctaw county, Alabama, on the 15th instant, a bundle of papers were found disclosing a well-organized plot among the negroes to kill the entire white population of that county. A quiet meeting of citizens was called to consider the best mode of suppressing the outbreak and massacre. After discussion it was agreed that the seven ringleaders, to whom had been assigned duties respecting the leading of their several squads to Butler, Mount Searling, De Sotoville and other places, should be arrested and lodged in jail. Their arrest was effected on the 17th instant without much disturbance or bloodshed. On the same day a mass meeting of citizens of all classes was called to decide the fate of the prisoners. The plot had been in existence since 1878, and the conspirators now number 400. They have powder, shot and guns and think themselves sufficiently strong to accomplish their fiendish design. Sunday night the 17th of September, had been appointed for its consummation. The mass meeting brought together about 700 men, among whom were about 150 negroes, who after having the papers read, by an almost unanimous vote decided that Jack Turner was a turbulent and dangerous character and the public good demanded his immediate death. He was accordingly hanged the same afternoon in the presence of the assembled multitude. The other prisoners are still in jail to await further developments.
