WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...SEPT. 27, 1834 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. There is no doubt that Belva Lockwood thinks she is a bigger man that old St. John. GOVERNOR STONEMAN has issued a proclamation calling an election for November 4th, including Senators from the odd numbered districts, in accordance with the recent decision of the Supreme Court. Hon. BILL SHARON and Hon. Geo. Washington Tyler are both Republicans and politicians, and both were connected with the same lawsuit. They ought to stump the State together. They would "draw." LAYER telegram: "Potatoes are a drug in the New York market." Glad to hear prices have gone up at that rate. Any druggist in this vicinity wanting a lot to ship, can be supplied at sixteen ounces to the pound, if called for quickly. The fluent Ned Marshall, Attorney-General of the State of California, will speak in Los Angeles next week. Ned is a Democrat bred and a Democrat born, and when he is dead there is a Democrat gone—but he is for bold Ben Butler, all the same. His moral sensibilities revolt at the regular candidate. The hot shells thrown into the camp of orthodoxy in San Francisco by Bob Ingersoll are causing a lively hopping about by the clericals, several of whom of different denominations have come to the front in answer to his arguments. The Colonel is coralling the coin all the same. Hon. GEORGE STEELE, of San Luis Obispo, was unanimously nominated for Senator from that district by the Republican Senatorial Convention. Steele was "counted out" by the last Legislature and his place given to Brooks, the Democratic contestant. The injustice then done him will assist in his election now. OTHER WORKERS THAN CURRE. Politics are holding high carnal in other countries besides those United States. There are other questions agitating the minds of men in other parts of the globe which to them are of transcendantly more importance than the election of Blaine or St. John. It is safe to say that in China the notion of the powers in declaring war with France is the subject of lively discussion and criticism among the "outa." The Chinaman is valuable, and loves to orate; he is a keen observer of affairs and takes a great interest in matters affecting his country. While his patriotism leads him to pray for the annihilation of the Gaul, there is no doubt he thinks he could accomplish the job in much better style than the other man. If we went among the Chinamen, and understood their language, we would doubtless find some of them denouncing the "ins" as imbeciles, corruptionists and incompetents; while others would as vehemently extol the party in power, and "point with pride" to their past achievements. In sunny France, too, there is political music on every side, and the refrain "Turn the rascals out" is doubtless the climax of many an oration. And there, too, though the extermination of the Chinese is ardently desired by everybody, each party have their own ideas of how the extermination should be accomplished. But it is in England that political agitation is soothing the most. There are questions of public moment now under discussion in which old and young, gentle and simple, take a deep and aggressive interest. Mass meetings attended by a hundred thousand people, political picnics in which tens of thousands of men, women and children participate, are of frequent occurrence; and, in fact, in the matter of mass meetings, the English people may be said to have become thoroughly Americanized. Nay, they have outripped us in this particular phase of politics, and can give us "points" on the manner of making these demonstrations successful. In order to attract a multitude to hear the words of wisdom, or nonsense, as the case may be, fall from the lips of orators, they present an elaborate programme of amusements. One of them is appended and may serve as a hint to the political managers of our own country: CONSERVATIVE SATURDAY AFTERNOON PETE. The Parliament at Bonne died on Monday. He had been in office twenty-five years. The total resurgence of the State Fair at Sacramento, for tickets only, amounted to $26,241.75. This is nearly $9,000 greater than last year. A fire Monday night destroyed five houses on River street, Truckee. The loss is $4,000; insurance $1,900. The explosion of a coal oil lamp started the fire. The hop crop of Washington Territory is enormous; over 1,500 pounds to the acre is not unusual. Labor is scarce and one-third the crop it is thought will rot on the vines. Hiram Moore, aged seventy-nine, a resident of Napa county, cut down two trees the other day in four hours, one a madrone, four feet in diameter, the other a live oak, three feet across. Mr. Marshall, of Santa Clara county, says that he has found a mixture of one part kerosene to two parts of sour milk to be a dead shot for the scale bug, he having tried it upon his orange trees with entire success. In the family of Mr. Pettijohn, living near Prescott, Walla Walla county, W. T., are ten children whose average height is six and one-half feet and average weight is 224 pounds; this includes two children not grown. There are seven sons and three daughters. One boy, seventeen years old, is seven feet high and weighs 265 pounds. J. F. Danford, President of the Spokane Bank of Cheney, and the Columbia Valley Bank of Alkali, Oregon, has run away from the swindled depositors, and the angry people have caught Daensworth, the cashier, whom they threaten with lynching if he fails to aid them in bringing Danford back. Mrs. Mattie Meetz died at Hanford from the effects of a dose of Cobalt, taken last Saturday with suicidal intent. She and her husband had been conversing while she was at her household work. Taking offense at something he said, she went out and swallowed the fatal drug before any one could interfere. The Piutes are much troubled with sore eyes, and there are many cases of total blindness among their men and women. Several ranchers in Storey county have gone nearly blind of late, and it is suggested that either the alkali about the borders of the lakes and flats has affected their eyes, or that the disease has been contracted from the Piutes. A young man aged thirty years, named Wm. H. Derby, was found dead in his bed at Riverside Sunday evening. Several gashes were cut on one of his arms, and one, severing the artery of his wrist, was the fatal wound. He was last seen alive on Thursday. He had manifested symptoms of insanity. The Coroner's jury returned a verdict of suicide. HON. GEORGE STEELE, of San Luis Obispo, was unanimously nominated for Senator from that district by the Republican Senatorial Convention. Steele was "counted out" by the last Legislature and his place given to Brooks, the Democratic contestant. The injustice then done him will assist in his election now. ROSEO CONKLING, who, it will be remembered, was once a Senator or something, is against Blaine and in favor of Butler. He is right. To vote for a man who once described him on the floor of Congress as a pompous turkey gobbler is something which would not be expected of a vain coxcomb like Conkling. MISS HATTIE WOODS, the Los Angeles rival of Lulu Hurst, made a failure at her exhibition of mysterious torce in San Francisco. Luhu can double discount Hattie in slinging athletes about the stage, but this is our first attempt in the cultivation of this peculiar production. Los Angeles county will not yet yield the palm to Georgia for superiority of productions in either the vegetable, animal or spiritual kingdom. THE editor of the Los Angeles Times speaks of the editor of the GAZETTE and Grover Cleveland in the same paragraph, and what is worse, alludes to both as horny-handed farmers, and intimates that they have specific knowledge of that particular branch of agriculture known as baby-farming. Our solicitor has been instructed to bring a criminal action for libel. Now belch forth your interrogatories. ALL good Democrata should comply with the urgent appeal of the National Committee and immediately forward their contributions to the Treasurer of the committee in New York. Any amount, however small, will be received to aid in the great and glorious work of defeating the election of James G. Blaine, and "when victory is achieved, a recorded list of contributors will form a golden roll of honor such as no other party in this country has ever possessed." Alas, we fear there will be many names missing. Some of the hobbies which possess truly scientific men are really ridiculous. There is Mr. Whitehouse, of New York, a man of great industry and learning, who discards the investigation of practical and useful subjects and writes elaborate papers to prove that Fingal's cave is artificial and that the Pyramids of Egypt were built from the top downward. Such were the themes of the papers read by him at the recent Scientific Congress, and they were heard with ill-conceived impatience. Whitehouse is evidently a cranky crank. fact, in the matter of mass meetings, the English people may be said to have become thoroughly Americanized. Nay, they have outtrapped us in this particular phase of politics, and can give us "points" on the manner of making these demonstrations successful. In order to attract a multitude to hear the words of wisdom, or nonsense, as the case may be, fall from the lips of orators, they present an elaborate programme of amusements. One of them is appended and may serve as a hint to the political managers of our own country: CONSERVATIVE SATURDAY AFTERNOON PETE. Saturday, Sept. 6th, 1834 by kind permission of Earl Egmont, at Cowray Park, Midhurst, the Right Hon. Earl Egmont and Lord Onslow will speak. The beautiful grounds will be open. Crocket, lawn tennis, and other games are arranged for. A band will be in attendance. Refreshments will be supplied at a fixed tariff. The Earl of Egmont has kindly promised a display of fireworks, and illumination of Cowray ruins in the evening by Messrs. Brock & Co., Pyrotechnists at the Crystal Palace. PROGRAMME: Signal aerial maroons. Special illumination of Cowray ruins by fifty large Crystal Palace lights, changing color many times. Flight of Fire Pigeons, etc. The Chromatrope Wheel, etc. Barnum's Sacred White Elephant, etc. Magical illumination of the ruins by large masses of loose colored fire. Salva 18 in Crystal Palace Shells of various colors. A jewelled tree with silver fountains. The aerial acre of variegated gems. Two huge blazing suns. The Falls of Niagara. Transformation Clouds. Jupiter's Thunderclouds, Twinkling Stars, etc., etc., etc. Concluding with the device—"Our Queen and Constitution." Then follow particulars of the cheap train fares. TIME IT WAS STOPPED All Americans who have traveled in foreign countries with observing eyes agree upon the fact that American citizenship is held in contempt by even the most insignificant officials of the most insignificant of foreign governments. The latest reported is that of Carl Werner who left New York to reside in Germany. In June last, he says, he arrived in Annaberg in Saxony, where he was arrested and taken before a police magistrate named Franz Ludwig Fischer on a charge of refusing to serve in the army. His defence was that he was an American citizen, and as such was exempt from military duty in Germany; and he produced his naturalization papers. The magistrate took the papers, smiled, and handed them back to him with the remark that he might light his pipe with them. He was then fined 150 marks. He paid the fine, and fearing further trouble, fled to Austria. He was extradited, brought back, fined 42 marks more, searched, and his watch, rings and valuables all taken from him. But he managed to get away and come back to New York. This is but one of the many cases which emphasize the demand of the people for a reform in our foreign policy, such a reform as James G. Blaine will inaugurate and put into practical operation The Piutes are much troubled with sorre eyes, and there are many cases of total blindness among their men and women. Several ranchers in Storeide Sunday evening. Several gashes were cut on one of his arms, and one, severing the artery of his wrist, was the fatal wound. He was last seen alive on Thursday. He had manifested symptoms of insanity. The Coroner's jury returned a verdict of suicide. Isaac L. Long of San Francisco, Grand Secretary of the Independent Order of Chosen Friends, who was found short in his accounts, and who it is thought, attempted to commit suicide, is, the doctors state, rapidly recovering, and is now said to be out of danger. The investigating committee of the order is still examining his accounts. It is stated the shortage will not be more than $7,500. Two accidents occurred Saturday at Osgood's field, near Oakland. A young man named Smith was driving horses attached to a thrashing machine, when the harness broke and the whifflette sprang back, striking Smith in the abdomen, bursting his bladder and causing his death in a few minutes. Later in the day, George Ryan, the owner of the thrasher, with his wife and daughter, were thrown from a buggy in the field. Ryan fell on his head, causing insanity. T. L. Carothers, Republican nominee for Congress, has commenced suit against the publishers of the Northern Picket to recover $20,000 damages for libel. The libel consists in charging that in 1876 Carothers assaulted one Belle Lynch, who was conducting the Ukiich Dispatch at the time, and attempting to convey the impression that Carothers was smarting under a political defeat, and made the assault on Mrs. Lynch to gratify his revenge. Ramona Perez, a spinster, born in 1838, who was been dwelling on a ranch near Livermore since her birth, made her first visit to Oakland recently. She had been confined to the house for thirty years with hip disease, but has become sufficiently restored to health to walk. Until her visit to Oakland she never had seen a locomotive or train of cars, a telephone, a sewing machine, a street-car or a hack. She went to San Bernardino to testify in a will case before the Superior Court. The stage running between Santa Maria and Guadalupe, San Luis Obispo county, was stopped by two men Monday night and the box of Wells, Fargo & Co., containing over $1,800 was taken. The robbers took the box away for concealment. In the meantime a passenger on the stage returned to Santa Maria and gave the alarm. It appears that the robbers stole two horses for the purpose, and after concealing the box returned to Santa Maria and left the horses out of town. Two men who had been missed for the time, and on whom suspicion rested，arrived at their old haunt and were arrested. Their names are Rutherford and Thompson. Search was made on Tuesday for the box and it was found in a hay stack. Evidence to convict the arrested parties is said to be sufficient. The treasure box was found to be uninjured. A Wealth of Grape. [S. F. Bulletin.] Sixteen thousand dollars from twenty acres of land will be considered by Eastern agriculturists as very fair，even for California. But this is the sum that R. B. Blowers of Yolo could receive from his twenty-acre vineyard of seedless Sultana，if the grape Some of the hobbies which possess truly scientific men are really ridiculous. There is Mr. Whitehouse, of New York, a man of great industry and learning, who discards the investigation of practical and useful subjects and writes elaborate papers to prove that Fingal's cave is artificial and that the Pyramids of Egypt were built from the top downward. Such were the themes of the papers read by him at the recent Scientific Congress, and they were heard with ill-conceived impatience. Whitehouse is evidently a cranky crank. The trials of the force claimed to have been discovered by John W. Keely, of Keely-moter fame, at Sandy Hook last week, are pronounced by the witnesses of the experiments to have been successful. The United States Engineers and other scientific gentlemen who were present have expressed themselves as satisfied that Keely has discovered a great natural law which is to play a great part in furnishing the motive power of the world. A five hundred horse-power engine will be completed in a few weeks, when public exhibitions of Keely's success in harnessing sound and utilizing its power will be given. BLAINE has been in New York, and his reception in that village has been as warm as he could have desired. A Catholic priest presented him with a gold-headed cane, a deputation of ninety clergymen called upon him, and Gen. Grant made him a long visit. The most significant of the visits, however, was a large deputation from the Union League Club, and their declaration that "we pledge to you the hearty support of an overwhelming majority of this club. If there should be a small remnant of the minority of our members who may desire to desert their party on election day, it will be because they love free trade." Dr. Congar of Pasadena is a warm personal enemy of Col. Markham, the Republican nominee for Congress. They have been partners in business, disagreed, and now "they do not speak as they pass by." Dr. Congar's enmity has led him to charge Markham with the responsibility of hiring Chinese to work in his mines at Calico. Others equally conversant with the facts, say that Congar, and not Markham, was the offending party. As the antipathy of Congar to Markham is unconcealed, any derogatory statements he may make is open to the suspicion that they are inspired more with a desire to "get even" than with any strict regard to their entire truthfulness. A POLITICAL PROPHECY The following cold comfort for our Democratic friends is from one of the greatest and ablest Democratic journals of the country, the New York Sun, and reflects the opinion of the observing men of the country in their calm and honest thoughts: It is now tolerably clear that there is no chance of Grover Cleveland's election to the Presidency. He cannot carry New York. He will be beaten in this State by a majority of not less than fifty thousand, in spite of every exertion that may be made between now and election day. Why, then, should genuine Democrats any longer think of tying themselves up to such hopeless candidacy? It was a mistake from the first. We warned its authors before the nomination at Chicago that they were engaged in an enterprise which was doomed to disaster; and this doom is now so plainly apparent that only the blind can fail to see it. Hon. Mr. Butterworth — shades of Greece, what a name—is a very unique and original person. He is an Ohio Congressman, but for all that he appears to be able to read and write. His ability to read has led him to study history, and in a letter written by him and read at the opening of the Cincinnati Exposition he gave evidence that what he did not know about ancient history wasn't worth mentioning. He said that more men were engaged in pork-packing to-day than were present at the siege of Troy, while if the Carthaginians had only had as many sewing machines as were in the Exposition Building, Scipio would have fled. Nodebut these highly interesting comparisons were greeted with profound applause, and the average Ohioan felt proud that the oligarchous Butterworth represented them at the National Capitol. A Wealth of Grapes. [S. F. Bulletin.] Sixteen thousand dollars from twenty acres of land will be considered by Eastern agriculturists as very fair, even for California. But this is the sum that R. B. Blowers of Yolo could receive from his twenty-acre vineyard of seedless Sultanaa, if the grapes were sold on the market. Those who have visited the vineyard within a few days state that it presents the most surprising spectacle that they have ever seen. The vine stalks are allowed to send out four bearers each, and these are tied to a six or seven foot upright pole. They reach the top, twinning about it and causing it to bear the weight of the fruit. The vines are loaded with fruit, and the spectacle is presented of twenty acres covered with almost solid pyramids of luscious grapes. The yield will be fully twenty tons to the acre, and could be sold for $40 per ton. They will, however, be put into raisins, which will increase the receipts from the twenty acres. —The formal transfer by the Southern Pacific to the Atlantic and Pacific company of the railroad from Mojave to the Needles will be made on next Wednesday. The Atlantic and Pacific will then control a through road from the East to the Pacific Coast, thus breaking the backbone of railroad monopoly. —We are informed by the Los Angeles Times, that registration will not cease until October 6th. The Gazette announced the date of closing to be the 25th instant and did so on the authority of the Deputy clerk here, who received his instructions from the County clerk. Registration still goes on, however. —Insure against fire in the first-class companies for which Richard Melrose is agent. Policies written and delivered at once. The imitation of canned sardines can go no further. The packing box is made in Jersey City, the wrapper is printed in New York, the tin case are manufactured in Boston, the fish are caught on the Maine coast, and the oil is manufactured from ointmented in Georgia. REPUBLICAN MEETE HON. H. J. MOREHO will address the people on the issues of ANAHEIM, FRIDAY, Oct. The County Committee will please make any arrangements for the meeting. By order of the Republican State Centr lee. A P. WILLIAMS, C. JAMES R. FINKLAVSON, Secretary. News at the Week. Caterpillars are coming a great deal of damage to cotton in parts of Florida. In Ohio, the industries affected by the tariff are introduced in the political process. Bombay husbands cut off their wives' noose for punishment. In a single week five such cases were lately reported. Ireland, it is said, in overflowing with tourists, and it is reported to be next to impossible to procure a bed at a descent hostelry in Scotland. A genuine case of yellow fever has been discovered in New York. The sufferer, whose name was Domingo Morales, was too far gone when found to give any account of himself. Postmaster-General Gresham has resigned and has been appointed Secretary of the Treasury. Frank Hatton, First Assistant Postmaster-General will act as Postmaster-General until the successor of Gresham is appointed. Rev. Mr. Trackleton, a Presbyterian clergyman of Tullamore, Ireland, has brought a libel suit against the Freeman's Journal for $60,000 damages for printing in its columns a statement that he eloped with Mrs. Brown to Paris. Mrs. Brown has also brought suit against the same paper, claiming damages in $25,000. A plot to rob the First National Bank, at Los Vegas, was unearthed Tuesday. The robbers were tunneling under the building. One of them was killed. Bob Ford and Dick Liddle, the Missouri outlaws, were believed to have been interested in the affair and were ordered to leave town. In London, Captain Dudley and Mate Stephenson of the lost yacht Mignotte, have been committed for trial on a charge of murder. While drifting about at sea in a small boat, without water or food, they killed the cabin boy, drank his blood and ate his body, that their own lives and the life of a seaman named Brooks might be preserved. The seaman was released from arrest. Seven convicts were whipped at Newcastle, Delaware, on Saturday morning in the presence of 400 people. Among them were Edward Bidden, white, who was pilloried for an hour in addition to twenty lashes; Isaac Anderson, a negro boy, who swore lastly while being whipped, and a colored thief, named Sugar Awful, who took twenty lashes without a murmur. Geo. H. W. Stewart, who is editor and proprietor of the Golden Epoch, a weekly newspaper published at Helena, Ark., was attacked and pretty severely beaten with a club by one Pompey Sutton, colored. Some time last week Sutton attempted suicide, and the editor published the facts, and said it was because he had lost his week's earnings playing a game of craps, which is a popular game among the colored people of the South. A story comes from Ottawa, Kaa., that on Monday last Carrie and Beasie Waterman. What's Next into the State? Bonner, Sept. 22—A 18-year-old girl of Framingham, on Friday, pushed a value with diamonds and vegetable bonds to the amount of $60,000, belonging to her mother, a weakly lady, and started for Boston to meet a young lad and close with him. She was arrested, the valables recovered and the girl taken home. The amount stolen was divided as follows: Fifteen thousand dollars in bank bills; $3,000 in U. S. bonds; $7,000 worth of diamonds; $35,000 worth of railroad stocks. The girl's name is Sadie Robinson, and she is the daughter of C. E. Robinson. Sadie's mind has been filled with nonsensical ideas about runaway marriages. When charged with stealing valuables she at first denied it but subsequently confessed. She said that on Tuesday morning she took a valise with her when she went to school in Boston, and had given it to a woman. She told a blood curdling story of having her life threatened unless she complied with a demand for money. She said she met the woman in the Albany station and gave her the valise containing the valuables. The valise and valuables were recovered in a drugstore, where Sadie had left them, promising to call for them to-day. She confessed that she loved the young man, whose name she refused to give, and had taken the money with the intention of eloping with him. He Swore New York, Sept. 17.—A special to the World from Ironton, Ohio, of the 16th, says: Allen O. Myers made a political speech here Saturday night, in which he said that A. B. Tomlinson, editor of the Buoy Bee, a Republican paper printed here, had a negro mother. Tomlinson was absent at the time, but the news was carried to him. He sent Myers word yesterday demanding a retraction of such remarks as had reference to his mother. No answer came, whereupon Tomlinson brought Myers to bay at his hotel at dinner. "Do you know my mother?" asked Tomlinson, fiercely at the same time displaying a revolver and advising bystanders to keep their distance. "No," answered Myers. "Then stand up and hold up your right hand," thundered Tomlinson. Myers obeyed. "Now," added Tomlinson, savagely while covering Myers with his revolver, "swear by the Eternal God that what you said in your speech about my mother was a Among them were Edward Bidden, white, who was pilloried for an hour in addition to twenty lashes; Isaac Anderson, a negro boy, who swore lustily while being whipped, and a colored thief, named Sugar Awful, who took twenty lashes without a murmur. Geo. H. W. Stewart, who is editor and proprietor of the Golden Epoch, a weekly newspaper published at Helena, Ark., was attacked and pretty severely beaten with a club by one Pompey Sutton, colored. Some time last week Sutton attempted suicide, and the editor published the facts, and said it was because he had lost his week's earnings playing a game of craps, which is a popular game among the colored people of the South. A story comes from Ottawa, Kaa., that on Monday last Carrie and Bessie Waterman, aged 12 and 14 years, daughters of James Waterman, a farmer, tied a rope around the neck of a half-brother, 6 years old, dragged him and beat him with sticks until he died. The head of the child was nearly severed from its body by the rope. The girls stated at the Coroner's inquest that they hated the child, and wanted him dead. They were held for murder. Harry Clay, a well-known lawyer and politician, and grandson of the great Henry Clay, was shot at Louisville, Ky., by A. Wepler, a member of the City Council. Clay had been drinking and wanted to borrow money. Wepler refused, and Clay began to abuse him, and went to get a pistol. When he returned they agreed to fight it out. Wepler fired first, the ball striking Clay in the groin. Wepler surrendered. Clay is dead. He was a member of Howgate's Arctic expedition in 1880. W. B. Fleming, Democratic Elector of Kentucky, spoke the other day to a small audience. His speech was a tirade of abuse against Blaine. He said: "We ought to win. If we don't win with the ballot, we will one day win with the bayonet." He seemed to forget the poor success they had when they tried winning with the bayonet twenty years ago. He made Blaine out to be almost as bad a man as Garfield was just before he was elected. Scott Anderson, a prominent Mormon and strong temperance worker; who has been in Salt Lake something over two years from England, has written a letter to President John Taylor, renouncing Mormonism and denouncing the blood atonement and compulsory polygamy, which he says were a horrifying surprise to him on coming here, as no such doctrines were taught him in England. He accuses the sect of indecency and idolatry. The Young Men' Republican Club of Brooklyn, N.Y., which has virtually been the controlling political power in that city for several years, and has been accounted one of the largest factors in the independent movement against Blaine, held a public meeting on Tuesday last and by an overwhelming majority decided to support Blaine and Logan. The noble army of Schauz and Grandmother Curtis is badly broken up by desertions. Jerry McAuley's funeral from Broadway Tabernacle, New York, was attended by the most promiscuous assemblage ever witnessed within the walls of a church in that city. Bankers, merchants, wealthy ladies, clergymen of all denominations, prostitutes, thieves, pickpockets, black and white—in short the Tabernacle was densely packed with people from fashionable quarters and from the slums. The pallbearers were six converted river thieves. Rev. Doctors Prime, Taylor, Watkins, Deems and other prominent clergymen presided. Oliver Wormold, the Buffalo crank, who proposes going over the cataract in a rubber ball, wont to the Falls with a large party of friends and a small rubber sphere, gavely painted and appropriately inscribed. The ball went over the falls but not before two cats that started in pursuit of it jumped off the brink. The ball has not been found yet, but the cats showed up all right. He sent Myers word yesterday demanding a retraction of such remarks as had reference to his mother. No answer came, whereupon Tomlinson brought Myers to bay at his hotel at dinner. "Do you know my mother?" asked Tomlinson, fiercely, at the same time displaying a revolver and advising bystanders to keep their distance. "No," answered Myers. "Then stand up and hold up your right hand," thundered Tomlinson. Myers obeyed. "Now," added Tomlinson, savagely, while covering Myers with his revolver. "Swear by the Eternal God that what you said in your speech about my mother was a lie, and that you knew it was a lie. Swear three times." Myers obeyed, and Tomlinson walked away. Tomlinson's father was killed at Riley early in the war and his mother still lives there. Canned Goods New York, Sept. 22. — Brevet Major-General J. P. Hawkins has written an article to the American Grocer on the use of the canned goods in the army. He says the army posts throughout the Union have been supplied with canned meats, fruits, vegetables and preserves for nearly twenty years. Many of the posts are located where it is not possible to cultivate gardens. As a class, army people are, without doubt, the largest consumers of canned goods in proportion to their number. They are relatively more numerous here than in any other country. Notwithstanding this large consumption, he has never known or heard of a case of canned-goods poison in the army. He states that goods of no particular packing are used; they are purchased all over the country, but usually from the packer or manufacturer, who converts the crude material into the canned article. He has inquired of army surgeons, and they tell him they have no knowledge of any cases of poisoning from canned goods. Strange Indian Customs. Salt Lake, September 20. — "White Eye," the Indian on trial at Beaver for putting strychaine in the food of herders, near Kanab, and killing one, has been convicted of murder in the first degree, with a recommendation for a sentence of imprisonment for life. One of the Mormon Mountain Meadow massacre men was the interpreter at the trial. The Indians of his band object to the trial saying that there is no sense in taking life of "White Eye," who is a young buck against that of the murdered man, who was old. Accordingly, they offer one old man of their tribe in exchange, or they profer six ponies to settle the whole matter. In spite of the declarations of the officers they sent for the ponies, expecting when they arrived, to turn them over to "White Eye's" attorneys and secure his release.

Bulletin.] Bankers, merchants, wealthy ladies, clergy men of all denomination, prostitutes, thieves, pickpockets, black and white—in short the Tabernacle was densely packed with people from fashionable quarters and from the slums. The pallbearers were six converted river thieves. Rev. Doctors Prime, Taylor, Watkins, Deems and other prominent clergymen presided. Oliver Wormold, the Buffalo crank, who proposes going over the cataract in a rubber ball, went to the Falls with a large party of friends and a small rubber sphere, gaily painted and appropriately inscribed. The ball went over the falls but not before two cats that started in pursuit of it jumped off the brink. The ball has not been found yet, but the cats showed up all right. The test did not seem wholly successful. Manager Grant threw the ball into the rapids at the center of the Goat island bridge, at 12 P.M. A large crowd on shore watched him and the ball. It struck in the eddies and sailed leisurely along to the brink, occupying two and a half minutes in the passage and stopping to spin around on a rock, which was nearly out of the water. Wormald and his wife watched for the ball on the river below the falls, but they could not see it. Wormald was not in the least discouraged. Effect of the Brooklyn Bridge New York, Sept. 19. J. Stranahan, Bridge Trustee and also Trustee of the Union Ferry Company, said yesterday that since the completion of the bridge the Ferry Company has been steadily falling off in its receipts and that the surplus is being drawn on at the rate of $100,000 yearly. He claims that the Fulton Ferry is the only one that ever made any money for the company, and that even it has been ruined by the bridge. "If the bridge lowers its rates," Stranahan says, "we will simply give up business, and even if it does not lower its rates, we will not probably accept another lease. Our receipts are only $1,000,000 a year and our expenses are greater." New Cure For Diphtheria. An Italian doctor has adopted a new and successful method of treating diphtheria. His treatment consists in wrapping the patient in a cold, wet sheet, repeating the packing three or four times a day, according to the height of the fever. Cold compresses are kept continually at the throat. He uses gargles of the alkaline sulphites, carbolic acid, etc., as disinfectants, but never cautions. In 1875 six cases no treated all recovered, the disease lasting on an average ten days. This treatment is well borne and much liked by the patient. Stimulants at the same time are freely administered. A Symphony in Very Dark Blue BY C. SCHURZ. Air, "The Heart Bowed Down." I cannot speak the new piece, The piece I used to speak; Paralysis my tongue has seized, Tears course a down my check; O Passamaquoddy's gladiome bay! O Androscoggin's clear refrain! O rushing Chimquaseabamtook! I've heard I've heard the news from Maine! CHORUS. That Brooklyn speech was all in vain By Germany, 'twas not germane— Yes, I've heard the news from Maine. I cannot find "the still vote." The vote I once did spy; Augusta whispers in my ear, "You'll find it in your eye!" While Passadumkeag remarks, In tones of mocking glee, That Carl has made another flop, "For now he's Saidnosee." That Brooklyn speech was all in vain, By Germany, 'twas not germane— Yes, I've heard the news from Maine! I cannot fire the old charge, The charge I aimed at Blaine. The gun has burst, the powder spent— I've heard the news from Maine! O Umbagog! O Aroostook! O Molechunkemunk! Deep, deep within these boots of mine My anguished heart has sunk! That Brooklyn speech was all in vain, By Germany, 'twas not germane— Yes, I've heard the news from Maine! N.Y.Tribune. The Medical Record (N.Y.) states that quinine has lately sold as low as $1 an ounce. The decline is due to removal of the tariff duty and over-production among foreign manufacturers. The world produces about 4,500,000 ounces; it is manufactured mostly in Germany and Italy. America consumes about forty per cent of the entire production. Prior to the removal of the tariff, 1,-500,000 ounces were made here, but the raw material is now imported here from the East Indies—at the rate of 6,000,000 pounds—and then sent to Europe to be manufactured. Blaine's reception in Philadelphia was a perfect ovation. Over thirty thousand men were in line at the torch-light parade, and the streets along the route solidly packed with enthusiasm and applauding crowds. A model tea in a model package—Guess—EOLA TEA in the Perfection Tea Can. "The way in which piquancy of the Formula Oolong is toned down by Japan leaf says volley for the taste of its shipping." — Journal of Commerce. "Cured by a new enticed process infiltrated ahead of the slovenly or basket firing." — N.Y.Y. "Mechanical skill applied to tea curing is as novel it is desirable." — So American. "Its package is free all taint of load." — Medical Investigator. This latter opinion comes from so high an authority that U.S. Medical Investments attention. It generally known that many teas are liable to come impregnated with poisonous salt of leadcipitation from the lining of the chests in which they imported, if the least nature is present. TEA is, however, free from such risk. "The Perfection Tea its package, costs no than lead, and passes Custom House free of duty." — N.Y.Sunday Mercury. A.SCHILLING & SAN FRANCISCO.

(PATENTED APRIL 9TH, 1884) Some of its many advantages: 1. Its 50 candle power considered, it is the cheapest light ever invented. 2. By the laws of nature, it is non-explosive. 3. A chimney cannot be broken by it; it will melt first. 4. Even a child can wick it in one minute. 5. No smoke, no color, no smoked chimes. 6. Being made of brass or nickel, the lamp will last a lifetime. 7. Should it accidentally fall, there is no danger, as it could not break. Many lives have been lost in similar cases with glass lamps. 8. The fountain can be attached to any gas or oil fixtures, such as a gas burner, oil bracket or chandelier, and used in lighting stoves, offices, railroad cars, churches, parlor halls, hotels, and streets of towns and cities. 9. The hand lamp with tripod and pore-limin shade is an ornament to any parlor, library or office. 10. It costs less and gives more than double the light of the student's lamp. Beware of imitations. No genuine Electric Lamps but Casperson's. CALL AND SEE THEM.
