WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY... MARCH 17, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION. per year, $2. The preparation of designs for the new two-cent postage stamp, which will, after Oct. I next, take the place of the three-cent stamp, has begun. Even now this time is very short to get the stamps prepared and distributed over the country. Mr. Alfred K. Henning of Brooklyn, is suing for a divorce from Mrs. H., alleging that she has repeatedly lied him a puppy, a loater and a harp joint that when he complained of her staying out at night she told him to go to him. Representative men like Mr. Henning should never get married. The announcement that the amended revenue law abolishing the use of two-cent stamps on bank notes would go into immediate effect was an error. We learn from Mr. James Kregel of the Bank of Anaconda, that the loss of the stamps will continue until July 1st, when the new law will go into effect. The alleged weather problem, Wiggins, has some disguises. A resident of Wyoming, Missouri, had so much faith in the coming of the predicted storm that he dogged, stored it with provisions, and with his family took up a residence there so as to secure from the tempest. The telephone conveying this important information is obsolete to whether he paused the phone after him. Some people person many things which they do not possess. A certain Professor, who was engaged in teaching at a college at Dayville, Was, after instructing his class on two-fund transactions, is guilty of a misdemeanor. THE GAME LAW. The Legislature has amended the game law in several particulars. As the law is of especial interest to many of our readers we give the amended sections: Section 1. Section 626 of the Penal Code is amended to read: 626. Every person who between March 1st and October, 1st hunts, pursues, takes, kills or destroys quail, partridge, or grouse, or rail, is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who at any time takes, gathers or destroys the eggs of any quail, partridge or grouse is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who between January 1st and June 1st hunts, pursues, takes, kills or destroys ducks is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who between November 1st and July 1st in the following year hunts, pursues, takes, kills or destroys any male deer or book is guilty of a misdemeanor. Any person who has in his possession any hide or skins of any deer, elk, anteleph or mountain sheep killed between November 1st and July 1st is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who shall at any time hunt, pursue, take, kill or destroy any antelope, elk, mountain sheep, female deer, or ocelot shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who shall at any time hunt, pursue, take, kill or destroy any spotted fawn is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who shall take, kill or destroy any of the animals mentioned in this section at any time willless the carcass of such animal is used or preserved by the person taking or laying it, or is sold for food, is guilty of a misdemeanor. Every person who shall buy, sell, offer or expose for sale, transport, or have in his possession any door from which entrance of seek has been removed, or any of the afterhand games at any time when it is unlawful to kill the same, as provided by this and subsequent sections, is guilty of a misdemeanor. Section 2. Section 631 of the Penal Code is amended to read: Every person who shall neglect of omission will have to legislate on to be regretted ward the set has not been the regret of legislation womens prominent in traced dormant bill; as original condemnation entitled of the seized deemed to be irrigation rights of reposed an act by Wharton recognized reclaimants theretofore ought to have led in factuously a merger right owner first of repair propriators; ing water where seasick bill was amended classes his to work passage. Two bills One, drawn line was inthe character the organizaion of districts ter from a parian propietic and all persons desiring to occupancy as Some people perish many things which they do not possess. A certain Professor, who was engaged in geography at Dayborough, was after instructing his class on typhoid and anthrax principles of goutlessness at the house of good manners, went to a restaurant to supper, unbilled a too much wine, shot at the warden, and stabbed the policeman who came to arrest him. A notice for the Western Union Telegraph Co. in course of erection at Buffalo has supports for 1,000 wires upon the roof. To carry these wires into the various rooms of the building 150,000 holes will have to be bored, three engraaths of an iron cylinder, and most of them through wood four inches thick. This is equal to one hundred thousand holes 630,000 inches or over nine inches. A supervise job for boring this wire male hole has been let. There are only fourteen nations in the world today that are paying their way. The gland generally manages to make ends meet and show a trilining surplus of two or three millions to be applied to the reduction of its enormous national debt; the United States, in spite of Congressional extravagance, puts by every year nearly fifty times as much, and Holland and Belgium both keep about even. With these exceptions every nation in the civilized world seems to be practically hushed. The Chinese are a unique and original people even in their crimes. The latest advances from the Orient embody the following paragraphs: A horrible tragedy is being whispered about in the western suburbs of Canton. A hungry slave girl had stolen some food, whereupon her mistress beat her black and blue. Not content with these obstruction, the savage brute cut a slice out of the poor girls thigh and made her cook it and eat at Next day the slave girl died. The mistress became alarmed tried to conceal the corpse, but was discovered. Finding she had got into trouble she called the Kai fong, the Ti Po and the Lokang together, and paid them 20 taels each. As the deceased was only a slave girl, the arrangement seemed satisfactory to all parties concerned and the matter is now practically hushed. A gang of Tientsin rowlies, who have been making Shanghai warm for some time back by their thefts, squeezes, etc., have at last been captured by the municipal police and tried at the mixed Court, when the leader was sentenced to receive 400 blows and each of the others 100 blows. After the trial the prisoners were taken to the city. A bloody superstition. During the reign of Philip H of Spain the government spies in the province of Malaga made a curious discovery. In the highest valleys of the Alpujarras, and surrounded by a population of recently converted Moors, they found a tribe of mountainers as from the Spanish language, and whose neighbors believed them to be the descendants of the ancient Derrans. The Ghabars, as the Moors called them, were a most harm-begind primitive race; their food consisted of the vegetable products of their peaceful valley, their only religious function in sacrificing milk and fruits to the spirit of the mountains. A few weeks after the discoverer had made his report to the Holy Office, a detachment of troopers and monks invaded the Alpujarras, the Ghabars were dragged to Velez Malaga, and burned by order of the Grand Inquisitor. Their crime could not be condoned; they had disregarded the proclamation of 1562, and evaded tithes and baptism for seven years. In vain they pleaded their poverty, their ancient customs and their ignorance of the Spanish language. "They were all invested with the sambento," says the chronicle, "and broiled to death with the proper ceremonies." The shrieks of the victims were heard at Loja, and for three days the harbor of Velez was filled with the stench of burned human flesh. It was a most elifying anno daje—an act of faith." The same faith had filled the Netherlands with blood and horror, had raged like Black Death among the helpless aborigines of the New World, and had orthodoxed into trouble she called the Karlong, the 11 Po and the Lokang together, and paid them 20 taels each. As the deceased was only a slave girl, the arrangement seemed satisfactory to all parties concerned and the matter is now practically hushed. A gang of Tientsin rowlies, who have been making Shanghai warm for some time back by their thefts, squeezes, etc., have at last been captured by the municipal police and tried at the mixed Court, when the leader was sentenced to receive 400 blows and each of the others 100 blows. After the trial the prisoners were taken to the city. What may befall them there is hard to say. The woman who murdered her husband in such a brutal manner last month in Amoy committed suicide by hanging herself on January 17th. It is hinted that the jailer was bribed to let her make away with herself and so escape the terrible punishment of being flayed alive. Boston, March 13th.—In regard to the charges in Governor Butler's message that the traffic in the bodies of the pauper dead at the State Alms House had been carried on for a long time, the Journal prints a statement to the effect that of 2800 deaths in ten years, 580 bodies had been delivered to the medical colleges according to law. There is no record of the disposition of the remaining 2200, supposed to be buried in Potter's field, but it is alleged that some graves have no bodies in them. Charges are also made that bodies have been preserved in a pickling fluid and sent to distant points in kerosene barrels. The Superintendent states that this is done in a few instances at the request of Harvard College in warm weather. An enterprising merchant, in a city not more than 1,000 miles from New York, displayed a sign on which was the legend: "Send me a bunghole and I'll build you a barrel, send me a frog and I'll build you a pond; send me a tomcat and I'll build you a fence." These golden promises may be original with this merchant, but if we mistake not they were taken bodily from the platform of the last Democratic National Convention.—The Boomerang. Women physicians have been refused to practice in Austria. Neglect of Irrigation Measures. SACRAMENTO, MAY 12. Among the sins of omission which the present Legislature will have to its charge is that of failure to legislate on the water question. It is greatly to be regretted that some bill tebbing toward the settlement of this vexed question has not been passed. There is danger that the regret will be intensified by shotgun legislation within the next two years. Three prominent irrigation measures have been introduced during the season. The Wharton bill, as originally proposed, looked to the condemnation of all water rights for the benefit of the several districts, the water so condemned to be distributed per state among irrigators. This project wholly ignored the rights of riparian claimants. Moffitt proposed an amendment, which was accepted by Wharton and which, to a limited extent, recognized riparian rights, as well preserved to claimants the water which they had used for stock and household purposes and placed them on equity with all other persons as to future appropriations. In this stage the bill ought to have passed. But Atwell succeeded in further acquiring it so that it was virtually a measure in the interest of riparian right owners, as it made preferred classes, first of riparian right owners; second, of propriators; and third, of other parties desiring water. Then both of these amendments were sequestre and Section 17 of the original bill was amended so as to recognize prelared classes. From that time Wharton and his co-workers ceased to have interest in its passage. Two bills were introduced in the senate One, drawn by ex-Servant General James Whitney. The characteristic features of it are first, the organization of districts and subdivisions of districts which can be said with water from a common source; second, thatric partan proprietors shall have water for domestic and stock purposes; third, that all persons within the bounds of the district desiring to irrigate shall be placed upon an equity as to their right to have water. The Panama Canal. NEW YORK, March 12—The Tribune says: The American Dredging and Contract Company is about to begin operations on the Panama Canal. The Company was originally started by Slaven Brothes of San Francisco, who associated with them William T. Coleman, James Phelan, Lloyd Tevis and other Californians. The Slaven Brothers came here with letters from Phelan and others to the Export Lumber Company, and by the heads of this company were introduced to William R. Grace & Co., who took a small amount of stock. The New York agent of the Bank of California was made trustee of the funds received for the stock. Among others who purchased it were Morton, Bliss & Co., Abraham S. Hewitt and Engene Kelley. The following persons were elected Directors of the company: James Phelan, Lloyd Tevis, Hugene Kelley, Charles R. Faint, William Evans and Mr. Slaven. The last named was made Secretary. There has been erected for the company the largest dredging machine in existence and a vessel to carry it, has been built in Philadelphia. The German steamer Claudius has been chartered to tow the vessel containing the dredging machine to Panama and will start on March 13th. The Hermes dredger is constructed on the same plan as the one now in use in the San Joaquin valley, Cal. Lasttenant Commander Garrigue and other experts have examined the machines and speak highly of it. The company is building one other dredging machine the exact counterpart of the first, and so have a third one built. Each one costs $125,000. The dredger works equally well in hard or soft dirt. The company will receive about $26 cents a cubic yard of dirt removed Paid has a contract to dredge several miles at a cost of $200,000. Payments are to be made monthly. The subscriptions coming to the stock of the company have been in amounts not to exceed $50,000 and some less than this. HELENA, Ark., March 14. The last water from the White river uniting with overflow of the Mississippi, has submerged large region of country in Beaver Bay and Lower Big Creek section never before mundated. The consequence is the complete annihilation of every kind of live stock with a large number of deer and other game. Two cabins occupied; one by white and other by colored families, suddenly disappeared from near South Bavon during night last week. No tailings of the coyotes since. The supposition is that perished. PADEN BAYER, March 15. The funeral of the late Prince Gortschakoff took place from the Russian chapel here yesterday. The physicians who attended Prince Gortschakoff say there were enough grounds suspect that the Prince had been poisoned. The evidence of the Prince's mistress, his valet captain's suspicion. In will, made on his death bed, the Prince quests the authorities to suppress any indictry as to whether he had been poisoned. The Diamond Dyes always do no harm than they claim to do. Coler over that dress. It will look like new. NEW ADVERTISMENTS D. W. HUDSON. Real Estate Broker and General Law Agent At Amheim, Los Angeles County, California CITY PROPERTY MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION Abstracts of Titles Furnished Loans Negotiated, Taxes Paid and The Evils of Divorce Laws. New York, March 10th. Dr. Dix last night delivered the title of his lectures on "Woman," which have awakened and such angry discussions. He invigors bitterly against the evils of the divorce system, and especially in New England, where he said, divorces occurred one to every fourteen marriages. The practical result of this facility of divorce is that in the New England States alone 2,000 families are broken up every year and 4,000 persons divorced. While the laws protecting marriage have been greatly weakened, and facilities for divorce extended, crimes against morality have been steadily increasing. In Massachusetts, in ten years, divorces have increased two and one half times, while marriages have increased hardly four per cent. New Haven (Conn.) March 11th. Rev. S. R. Dyke, Secretary of the New England Divorce Reform League, delivered a lecture this evening. Interesting statistics were given concerning the increase of divorces in the United States. In Connecticut in 1849 there were but 91 divorces; they now average 440 each year. Over 6,000 women have died in the United States each year from an attempt to destroy unborn children. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Portland Opera House and its residence in Naugatuck City have been destroyed by fire. The Stoklton Supervisors have decided to regulate presentation by ordinance and to license gambling. The hotel on Bouldin Island, San Josepin county, was destroyed by fire on Saturday loss $4,000; no insurance. San Jose has had a $10,000 note. It began in the form of a copy of Bennett, Paterson & Co. Chief Justice Morrison of the California Supreme Court had a stroke of paralysis and it is believed by his friends to be of a certain nature. E. M. Gilbert, the defeated Republican candidate for Earlent Commissioner in this District, has again been defeated in Oakland, in which city he ran for Mayor. At Auburn, Placer County, on Sunday, Sacred Rock's shot and killed Thomas Neville in the barroom of the American Hotel. The two had been gambling. Richards was numbered patients in the Napa Insane Asylum May 1st was 1204. The expenses for Library were $15,000. Dr Benjamin Souterliff has been elected president for the ensuing year. At Santa Cruz the twelve-year-old son of Babe Cappel was shot in the stomach on Saturday by a playmate, a boy named Campbell, about the same age. Both boys were examining a pistol when the mischievous boy's recovery is doubtful. The Legislature adjourned on Tuesday. Among the many things which it did not do was to create the County of Orange and disincorpore the town of Analeen. Among the things it did do was to recommend Governor Stoneman to appoint Denis Kearney to the position of Chief Whartlinger. Tom Davis and George Drumm, notwithstanding the conditions on which land in the temperance colony of Loupee is leased and sold, commenced building a saloon yesterday. The newly organized Women's Christian Temperance Union sent a deputation with a written and oral remonstrance without effect. The people always have forebodied liquor selling at loupee, and all feel nervous, as the general remark on the streets doesn't believe the building will be able to work so easily. In Massachusetts, in ten years, divorces have increased two and one half times, while marriages have increased hardly four per cent. New Haven (Conn.) March 11th.—Rev. S. R. Dyke, Secretary of the New England Divorce Reform League, delivered a lecture this evening. Interesting statistics were given concerning the increase of divorces in the United States. In Connecticut in 1849 there were but 91 divorces; they now average 440 each year. Over 6,000 women have died in the United States each year from an attempt to destroy unborn children. Troy, N. Y., March 13th.—It has been discovered that Emmett O'Neil, a Scheehertady banker who recently failed, has fled. He victimized parties in Schenectady and Duanesburg out of not less than $250,000. He had the handling of his father's estate, was presumably wealthy, and was elected a Director of the Schenectady Bank. Many farmers of Duanesburg gave him their money to invest. He obtained money by plausible representations, and gave as security forged mortgages, and where further proof was asked he even forged assignments to the mortgages, including the County Clerk's certificate and a copy of the records. Widows, orphans and industrious poor were alike his victims, as well as wealthy losers. Many persons in Duanesburg were swindled, and his mother and his sister are left penniless. It is believed he has gone to Europe. His two daughters and a son are still in Schenectady. Deadwood, (D. T.) March 11th.—Hood & Scott's lodging shed at Brownville, a wood camp at the terminus of the Black Hills and Fort Piera Railroad, was burned at midnight last night. James Chalmers, Thomas Finless, R. D. Wright, Lewis Hanson, Peter Hanson, A. Tennesliffe, Harvey Wood, W. H. Andrews, Charles Hammontree, Fred T. Peters and Samuel Hayes were burned to death, and four others, names not learned, seriously injured. The origin of the fire is not known. —Receipt books, order books, note books, etc., printed on heavy paper and bound in substantial form, are kept in stock at the Gazette Job Office. Tom Davis and George Drum, notwithstanding the conditions on which land in the temperance colony of Loupee is leased and sold, commenced building a saloon yesterday. The newly organized Women's Christian Temperance Union sent a deputation with a written and oral remonstrance without effect. The people always have forcefully stopped liquor selling at Loupee, and all took nervous, as the general remark on the streets is, "Don't believe the building will be allowed to stand," but no threats are made. At Eureka, Nevada, on Friday, E. T. Trafatter, Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, was severely cowhinded by Mrs. G. D. Hunter, on a public street. Mrs. Hunter's husband stood by with a revolver while the ladies punished Trafatter. The latter's face and head are severely bruised. The cause of the trouble is that Mrs. Hunter was recently removed from the matronship of the county hospital, and accused Trafatter of changing her with appropriating $1000 worth of county property unlawfully on leaving. The Grand Jury will investigate the case. The affair has created intense excitement. A double murder and arson was committed in the hills, four miles west of Lexington, Santa Clara County, on Monday at 1 a.m. At that hour the house W. P. Renowden was discovered to be in flames. Before assistance could arrive it was burned to the ground. When daylight came a horrible discovery was made. Some ten robs from the house the dead body of Renowden was found with two bullet holes in the heart and one in the right cheek. Only the lower portion of the clothing was burnt, so he must have rushed from the house and been fired at outside, or else he was shot inside and left for dead. In the ruins another dead body, charred almost beyond recognition, was found. It has been identified as that of Archie McIntyre, an old friend of Renowden, who had been in the habit of staying for days at the place. An inquest was held at Los Gatos this afternoon. Renowden was sixty years of age and a bachelor and was supposed to have considerable money in the house. The supposition is that he was murdered for his money. CASH BARGAINS AT THE DRY GOODS PALACE.

THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1837, which injured or destroyed acres of Windmill in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy use. Although some of its other man-made was destroyed so far as known every one of California's mills put up by the undergirded trees Mills are so strongly made and so inferior self-regulating that when properly plumbed it is almost impossible for storm to injure them.
