WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY JULY 5, 1884 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. Like many other rumors about the railroad company, the one regarding the deferring of pay-day turns out to be without foundation. The employees are being paid as usual. Rev. F. Dewitt Talmage of the Brooklyn Tabernacle on last Sunday announced that his church would be closed for the summer in order "To give my congregation a rest," as he naively puts it. Cholera has got a firm footing in parts of France, and it is more than probable it will spread to other countries, despite all quarantine measures. It is comforting to know that a cure for the disease has been found in the inhalation of pure oxygen. The telegraph reports a conference in New York of representatives of all the Democratic Presidential candidates, except Cleveland, at which Ben Butler was selected to head the Presidential ticket. If this is true, what a sweet morsel for the Democracy. It would be a joyful sound indeed to hear New Orleans Democrats shouting for Spoons Butler. To witness a slogging match in New York city lately 4000 people paid two dollars each. Mr. Sullivan, the great exponent of the manly art, was incapacitated from participating on account of his beastly state of intoxication. The disgust of the audience might have been saved had its moral taste been less depraved. The countenance given such exhibitions and the publicity made of the works and doings of such characters as this Sullivan is simply disgusting. The California Southern. Boston, June 23.-A committee of bond and stock holders of the California Southern Railroad report to-day that they have ascertained from the best estimates that can be obtained from Perris, Chief Engineer, and Victor, Superintendent of the company, confirmed by Anderson, an expert and engineer, who lately made a report, that the whole cost of repairing the road and putting it into condition for business will not be less than $250,000. A subscription offered to the stockholders has resulted in obtaining only $114,500 and it is not safe to expect the funds in the treasury will exceed about $40,000, making the amount available to repair the road, after the subscription is paid, $154,500. Under these circumstances the company will be compelled to either abandon its enterprise altogether—and not repairing the road would be equivalent to such an abandonment—or it will be obliged to go on and make contracts for repairs as it best can. In that event the stockholders would, under the laws of California, be personally responsible in proportion to their holdings for the payment of the sums due on such contracts in case of default on the part of the company. Commenting on the above the San Diego Union says: It is our opinion, judging from the manner in which the affairs of this road have been managed since it was completed to Colton, that the Boston people really mean to abandon the enterprise. More than a year ago, when the rails and other material which had been brought here to build the line to the Needles were shipped away and the majority of the employees discharged, we felt convinced that the contract made with San Diego would not be fulfilled. We were at that time in possession of information that we had no reason to doubt, and that subsequent events have confirmed, that an offer to dispose of the road had been made to the Southern Pacific company. The halt at Colton, the removal of the company's offices from this city, the resignation and departure of the engineers, the failure to provide proper depot buildings and freight accommodations, following closely upon the shipment hence of the construction material, all gave plain evidence that Messrs. Nickerson & Co. had no intention of carrying out the obligations of their contract, which bound them to complete the road to the Colorado river at the Needles on or before the first day of January last. A strenuous effort was, however, made to keep up the public confidence; NEWS OF There is a mosque Thousands of bonfires various parts of the peets. Six per cent. more many last year than months.

Mr. Sullivan, the great exponent of the manly art, was incapacitated from participating on account of his beastly state of intoxication. The disgust of the audience might have been saved had its moral taste been less depraved. The countenance given such exhibitions and the publicity made of the works and doings of such characters as this Sullivan is simply disgusting. There is a law in Ohio which ought to prevail in every State. We allude to the one under which a civil suit for damages can be brought against any saloon-keeper who sells liquor to a drunkard. In a suit of this kind, brought in Cincinnati, a verdict for $500 was given against the defendant. Whatever diversity of views may justly be held on the question of prohibitory legislation, there can be but one view taken of the action of any man who will supply a drunkard with liquor. Even cow hair has its commercial uses. The dealers who purchase this curious commodity from the tanners first "blow" the hair by a peculiar process, which separates the long hairs from the short ones. The long hairs are then woven into a fabric with other material which, upon completion, becomes the genuine "all wool" blankets presented by Uncle Sam to the Indians. The shorter hairs are worked into felting. The average price of cow hair is four cents a pound, but white cows' hair is worth eleven cents a pound. The Democratic National Convention will convene in Chicago next week to nominate a Presidential candidate for the great unwashed. Of the benefits arising therefrom the greatest will accrue to the Chicago saloon keepers. Doubtless there will be the usual Democratic hurrah and an unusual tumult caused by the bewildering position in which the party is placed by the declination of Tilden. Or as Nasby expresses it: "If the great statesman Tilden hed av accepted the nominashen we shoed hev hed some consola-shen. We wood hev tapped his barl, and we shood hev lived well doorin the campane, even if we didn't win at the end; but now that the old imbesile bez declined, the chances are that we shel nominate sum man which hezn't got money to pay for votes, and wher will the incorruptible Democracy be then? To hev a candidate without money envelopps us in gloom indeed." The want of a barl may so expedite the action of the incorruptibles as to enable the GAZETTE to announce in its next issue the name of the fortunate victim selected by the convention. The phrase "English bull-dog obstinacy" has an illustration in the idiotic conduct of the captain of a British steamer who honor- we had no reason to doubt, and that subsequent events have confirmed, that an offer to dispose of the road had been made to the Southern Pacific company. The halt at Colton, the removal of the company's offices from this city, the resignation and departure of the engineers, the failure to provide proper depot buildings and freight accommodations, following closely upon the shipment hence of the construction material, all gave plain evidence that Messrs. Nickerson & Co. had no intention of carrying out the obligations of their contract, which bound them to complete the road to the Colorado river at the Needles on or before the first day of January last. A strenuous effort was, however, made to keep up the public confidence; those who ventured to doubt the good faith of the Boston gentlemen were demonounced as "monopoly tools," etc. A good many of the subsidy notes given by the citizens of San Diego were falling due and there were also intimations that legal steps might be taken to enforce our contract rights. It was essential to quiet all feelings of apprehension, and all kinds of more or less plausible excuses were given to account for what had been done and what had been left undone. Finally, with a tremendous flourish of trumpets, it was proclaimed that the company was going to build to San Bernardino and right on via the Cajon Pass to the Needles. Then came the tempest in a teapot about the Colton crossing—a simple matter of law that could have been settled at once if it had been so desired and the proper steps taken to that end. But that was not the programme. There were immense obstacles to be encountered; the "great monopoly" was crowding the poor little road that had no backers save a few Boston millionaires; public sentiment was to be aroused—and it was. There were subsidies notes also to be collected from citizens of San Bernardino about that time. At last the legal formalities were performed and the road was extended three whole miles from Colton to San Bernardino. After a while Fred Perris went out in the Cajon Pass and made a "demonstration;" then we had rumors that "operations would begin immediately." The Union was rebuked by its San Bernardino contemporaries because it platinately declined to "enthase." So the rumors continued, with variations on the same old tune. The California Southern Railroad Company, after all that has been said of its strong financial backing, would appear from the above to be a lame duck in the monetary world. The rigid facts are that the public has known nothing concerning the financial condition of the company. The people along the line of the road generally complain of the close and niggardly action of the representatives of the company in their financial dealings. The road itself has ever been a wheelbarrow concern. As a piece of engineering it has been—for its steep grades and short curves—the laughing stock of railroad men, and could not be used for the heavy traffic of a transcontinental road. It never paid for the running expenses of the one box car train a day from Colton to San Diego. Last season's rains washed nearly half of the whole concern into the ocean. To those best acquainted with the condition of the road, it was a surprise that any attempt was made to repair it. The small force engaged for several weeks in repairs has accomplished but little, and should the road be put in its former condition it would be of but slight benefit to the public and worse than other but two weeks consent of the girl's. By the system in line between Boston, two messages may be sent one way and another. Hon. Robt. C. Winthe oration at the corner-stone laying in deliver the oration in completion of the medal.

He refused to produce his manifest upon his arrival and was fined $500. In revenge he anchored his ship in the stream directly in the way of the ferries, and having had $500 worth of fun in seeing the other craft dodge him he proceeded to Sanicia, refusing the services of a pilot. The law provides that if masters of vessels refuse the service of a pilot the fees must be paid anyhow, but with a British contempt for the laws of this blarsted country the captain not only refused to employ a pilot, but declined also to pay the fees. His vessel was libeled in consequence, but the contumacious tar prepared to leave port anyhow, until the presence of armed officers on board his vessel made him forego his intention. To listen to the views of this particular captain concerning the maritime laws of this country would no doubt be quite interesting if it were not for the expletives with which his views would be interlarded, after the manner of sea captains in general. PETALUMA, June 26.—Henry Weser, who came here from Erie county, N. Y., some three weeks ago, died suddenly upon the street at 10 A.M. to-day. For some ten minutes previous to his death he had been assisting in trimming some shade trees, and had just descended a ladder, when, without any premonition of illness other than the usual fatigue that he experiences on alight exertion, he having been in failing health for some time, he fell prone upon the ground, dying after a few moments' struggle. The coroner's jury found that deceased was a native of New York, aged 64 years, a preacher by profession, of the denomination of Union Brethren, and the opinion of the jury was that heart disease was the cause of death. He leaves a wife and nine children, residents of Bowmanville, Erie county, N.Y. Twenty-four miners were killed by a colliery explosion in the Wellington colliery at Nanaimo, B. O., on Monday morning. Viticultural Notes. St. Helena Star. All who have sulphured vines know its unpleasant effect upon the eyes, an effect scarcely apparent until after washing the face, when a smarting sensation commences and continues with more or less duration and violence according to the strength of the dose. Beginners naturally suppose this injury to be only temporary, amounting to nothing more than the inconvenience of the smarting; but all vintners say that there is danger of its working a permanent injury to the eyes. This is what has caused the trouble to Terrill Grigsby's sight, and on another place a Chinaman has become totally blind from its effects. Zinfandels have increased their popularity this year by the excellent crop they bear, while Reislings have lost a great part of their crop by the rain. There are two great points of advantage in the Zinfandel over the Reisling; they are cheaper to cultivate and surer of a crop. Reisling requires a 6-foot stake, costing $45 a thousand, and very expensive of driving. Zinfandels need on ordinary ground only a 3-foot stake, which may be had for $13.50 and is easily and cheaply driven. On extra rich ground a 4-foot stake might be used to advantage, and indeed Mr. Thomann's theory is that they should be staked 6 feet high and trained up long wooded; but about 3 feet has been the customary length of stake, and on this they have done well. Then again the Reislings make extra expense each year in tying, training and pruning, while the Zinfandels need no stakes after the first few years and consequently no tying. The average difference in yield is probably 10 per cent. or more, this year it is fully 25. On the other hand the Reislings command $2 or $4 a ton higher price and are always sought for wines that are to be kept any length of time. Salem, June 26th—Joseph Drake, convicted of the murder of David Swarts, was to-day sentenced to be hanged on the 13th day of August. NEWS OF THE WEEK. There is a mosquito plague at Marseille. Thousands of bonfires have been kindled in various parts of the city to disperse the pests. Six per cent. more beer was drank in Germany last year than in the preceding twelve months. The aggregate amount used was 53,000,000 gallons. The latest novelty in sport is a series of races with oxen at Munich. The beasts prove intractable and walk, run or back just as they are inclined. By a rare coincidence, it is said, six clergymen in Charlestown, Mass., preached on Sunday week from the text: "Am I my brother's keeper?" Mexican gamblers propose to put two gambling-cars on the Central Railroad, as there is a great deal of quiet gambling done on the smoking cars. Tomatoes and cucumbers are so plentiful in Florida that hundreds of acres of them are being plowed in because they are not worth the cost of picking. A wealthy resident of Lynn, Mass., has been sued by a lady of his acquaintance for $8,000 damages for an alleged insult, his offence being a request for a kiss. It is now alleged that some of the jewelry which Cesnola says he found under the Cyprus temple cut in solid rock is machine made and hails from Newark, N.J. A party of men digging in the bed of a dry pond near America, Ga., found a live alligator at the depth of seven feet. It was eight feet long and was in a torpid condition. The marriage of a twelve-year-old girl to a gentleman of eighty years is reported from Boykin, S. C., the two having known each other but two weeks, and marrying with the consent of the girl's mother. By the system in use on a new telegraph line between Boston and Providence, seventy-two messages may be sent at once over the same wire, all in the same direction, or part one way and the rest the other. Hon. Robt. C. Winthrop, who delivered the oration at the Washington Monument corner-stone laying in 1848, is expected to deliver the oration in February next upon the completion of the monument. In several localities in Orange county, N.Y., farmers had cows die of what appears to be a diphtheric affection. The animals appear to be in their usual health, when suddenly their throats begin to swell. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. H. M. Cables, examined at San Bernardo on the charge of attempting to bribe the School Board of that county, has been discharged for inefficiency of evidence. At Durham, Butte county, last week, the store of I. H. Lacey, including the postoffice and the new hall of the Odd Fellows and United Workmen, was destroyed by fire. Chico has a brass band, composed of eight native Indians, who are said to play remarkably well. They gave a concert the other evening, including native songs, recitations, etc., which was largely attended and highly enjoyed. On Monday the little five-year-old daughter of J. H. Haselton, living at Lord's Valley, W. T., got hold of some wheat which had been poisoned with strychnine for squirrels. The child ate several mouthfuls and was soon seized with convulsions and died in horrible agony. Frank W. May and Joseph B. Tomlinson, both formerly of Salt Lake, went hunting near Belknap, Montana, Wednesday evening. May made a circle in his travel, and in the dusk came upon Tomlinson who mistook him for a bear and shot May dead. Alex P. More, a millionaire resident of Santa Barbara, shot and killed a Chinaman on a schooner at Santa Rosa. The Chinaman wanted to leave the island on More's schooner, and upon being refused, advanced upon More with a knife, whereupon the latter shot him. More had an examination and was held to answer. Benjamin and Edward Richards, father and son, who were found guilty of manslaughter for the killing of Alphens Helpler, at Los Gatos, last March, were sentenced by Judge Belden to the State Prison—thefather for seven years and the son Edwin, who did the shooting, to five years. Bartolo Vincio, a woodchopper, while working near Mount Hamilton on Tuesday afternoon, felled a tree in such a manner that it fell across his legs, crushing his right thigh. He heard the stage pass twice each day, but was unable to attract the driver's attention until Friday afternoon. With the assistance of the passengers the tree was removed and Vincio was taken to San Jose. How sweet it is for brethren to dwelt together in unity. At Montecito, Santa Barbara county, James Swift and his brother Charles quarreled,and in the melee James fired two shots at Charles without hitting him; then Charles got his pistol and attempted to shoot at James. James got a warrant The Bang Doomed. The decadence of the bang is announced. A matter of such importance cannot be ignored. In all ages the dreaming of the hair has occupied the feminine mind to a very large extent. The Valmed informs us that Eve in the Garden of Eden, at the dawning of the world, carved around her roary fingers the siken ringlets that fell upon her pearly shoulders when she observed the approach of Adam through the trees. Even St. Paul, in his powerful epistles, draws attention to the fact that hair is the adornment of a woman and a charm she should glory in. Tarquin became enamored of Lucrece when he saw her shimmering tresses kissing her blushing cheeks as she bent over her spinning wheel. Napoleon became infatuated when his eyes rested upon the raven coils of Josephine. In view of the potent charms attached to "Only a Woman's Hair," the general public will be interested in learning that bangs are disappearing from the foreheads of the fair leaders of fashion. A few years ago a young lady without bangs would have been as obsolete as a three-cent postage stamp. Now one who wears bangs is looked at askance, as much so as if she appeared in a dashing cockney costume. The bang is out of date. It has served its purpose and must go. The new styles are the Saratoga wave and the Grecian coil. The Saratoga wave is a revival, in a modified form, of a custom which prevailed twenty-five years ago, when ladies were wont to part their hair in the middle and bring it down in two semi-circle from the center of the forehead, covering the ears and fastening it at the back of the head. The new styles makes the curve toward the back of the head begin at the temples. The effect is to bring out the attractive features of the lace and conceal bulging foreheads and ceased temples. The Grecian coil is skillful twisting of the hair at the back of the head. It has a very charming effect and makes a pretty woman perfectly irresistible when she turns her back. Female "Lords of Creation." Among the Kasia Hills, in the eastern part of Bengal, the men are said to be the inferiores, even in the eye of the law. Property descends only through women.

The animals appear to be in their usual health, when suddenly their throats begin to swell, and a few hours later they are dead. The residence of Mrs. Patrick Murphy, of Brier Hill, a suburb of Youngston, Ohio, caught fire Monday morning at 1 o'clock. Mrs. Murphy and one child escaped. Three children sleeping in the second story, aged five, seven and nine, were burned to death. A Boston lady is making a presiding officer's gavel of rare wood and stone of historical value. It will contain a fragment from Washington's tomb, marble from Caesar's palace in Rome, and a piece of a torch found in the wolf's den occupied by Gen. Putnam at Pomfret, Conn. The gavel is to be used at the National Democratic Convention, and is to be presented to the successful Presidential candidate. An effort was made to secure a confession from the woman who was arrested at Eberfeld on suspicion of being concerned in a plot against the Emperor's life, by placing in her cell another woman as a spy, and who was supposed to be arrested for the same offense. The spy had brandy hidden on her person with which she plied her companion, but the more the latter drank the more silent she remained, while the spy got gloriously drunk and gave away the whole plot. The most detailed and authoritative description of a sea-sperm yet given is furnished by six residents of Georgetown, Mass. They all agree they saw it going from them, make a turn and describe a circle, and all were satisfied that it was a monster of the snake species, not less than fifty feet long. They are solder, treasured by men, not given to drink, not credulous or easily excited, and did not see some little thing and imagine the rest. The names of the men are given. Orangemen have been on the rampage at Newfoundland. Among other outrages committed was the destruction of a Catholic church at St. Mary's on St. Mary's bay. They smashed the furniture and appointments of the sanctuary, destroyed the tabernacle, abstracted the chancel, cebarium and other sacred vessels, smashed the candelabra and strewed the debris about the streets, and in various ways desecrated the church. Five men were arrested. As soon as the knowledge of the desecration of the church spread among the Catholic population not less than 500 boats were manned for the purpose of scuttling and firing the vessel, the crew of which were the offenders. The influence of the parish priest and of the supplying merchants prevented the destruction of the ship and cargo. Three men entered the barroom of a disrepatable house in Globe street, in the part of Bradford, Pa., known as "Pig Island." The house is kept by Frank Meadows, who has a daughter 20 years old, and of whom he is very proud. She had always been kept from association with people visiting the saloon. It happened however, she was in the barroom when she entered. One of them, Jacob Head, aged 35 years, began to use insulting language to her. Miss Meadows at first broke into tears, overcome with shame and anger, but recovering her self-possession, ordered the man to leave the Bartolo Vincio, a woodchopper, while working near Mount Hamilton on Tuesday afternoon, felled a tree in such a manner that it fell across his legs, crushing his right thigh.

At Montecito, Santa Barbara county, James Swift and his brother Charles quarreled, and in the melee James fired two shots at Charles without hitting him, then Charles got his pistol and attempted to shoot at James. James got a warrant out for the arrest of Charles. The trouble all arises over the settlement of an estate—some 390 acres of rich land—of the father, James Swift, who died some years ago. The Methodist Lore for Chickens. Philadelphia Times. Since the earliest days of the itineracy the good brethren of the Methodist ministry have had a weakness for chickens. In the good old times it was customary to have a particularly fine fat pitillet specially reserved until the minister came round. Philadelphia, as is well known, is the greatest chicken market in the East, the New York hotels sending nearly all their orders here, and the fame of "Philadelphia dry-picked chickens" has gone wide and far. It is said that when the place for holding the General Conference was under consideration and the claims of Philadelphia were under discussion, some one said: "Why, that's where they have the good chickens, isn't it!" and thereupon Philadelphia received the preference by an overwhelming majority. It appears that the confidence of the clergy in Quaker poultry has not been misplaced. During the session of the General Conference the headquarters of the delegates has been the Colonnade Hotel, and since conference opened chicken has been on the bill of fare for every meal. There were over 400 ministers fed daddy in the hotel, and the consumption has been great. "Las' week," said the hotel steward yesterday. "we need up more than 2,000 chickens, bout 1,000 of em springshinekea. No use talkin'; one de丹 dere fine Melfodist gem'men make way wid a whole chicken so quick it makes yo' head swim." Calling Up the Agent. He didn't appear to be a bank cashier, or a newspaper editor, as he strolled into an Alabama street grocery. He was simply a six-foot Clayton county lad, and was looking for the State road depot. "Do ye know whether the agent is thar er not?" he queried after being directed to the right place. "I don't," answered the proprietor impatiently; "you can call him through the telephone and find out," waying his hand toward that instrument. The countryman looked first at the telephone and then at the merchant. At last he blundered out: "Mister, I reckon I looks pretty green, but lemme tell you, I knows when a fellers tryin' to make fun o' me, and I won't stand it." "What do you mean?" asked the merchant. "How'n the blazes air that agint again' to get through that little hole?" exclaimed the Claytonite. Smiling softly, the merchant arose, transmitting swiftly to her head. The Grecian coil is skillful twisting of the hair at the back of the head. It has a very charming effect and makes a pretty woman perfectly irresistible when she turns her back. Female "Lords of Creation." Among the Kasia Hills, in the eastern part of Bengal, the men are said to be the inferiors, even in eye of the law. Property descends only through women. The latter have the supreme command, and everywhere assert themselves as the superiors of their husbands, who are represented by travelers as little better than domestic drudgers, who mind the labyrinth go go errands and perform other little duties of the kind, while the wives attend to the more serious affairs of daily life. The girls of a family are hold in high esteem, the boys being "nobodies." A Life Saving Present. Mr. M. F.

Binney, of 14 Victoria buildings, Manchester, England, has addressed a letter to the San Francisco Chronicle containing a proposition for the establishment of a British colony in California, and invites its earnest consideration. The writer states that for several years he has been trying to get up a select English colony of educated or middle classes to buy and settle together on an estate in a California vine or orange growing district. He has the names and addresses of 200 people interested in the scheme, and could easily obtain 500 more if he had the land to offer them, but as they are only small capitalists they cannot afford to risk their money in speculative schemes. The writer asks if there are not any ranchowners in California who could assist in accomplishing his object without the intervention of capitalists resaping a large profit. Why should not the ranch-owner, he asks, sell his land direct to the colonists in small lots? The settlement of a colony on the estate would then be accomplished on a cheaper basis. The writer states that the upper class of Englishmen have formerly preferred emigrating to the British colonies, but if good inducements are held out will turn their direction to California.
