WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY AUGUST 22, 1885 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. A Missouri editor, soliciting subscriptions to his paper, declares that a neglect to take interest in reading the news of the day is an infallible symptom of early death. And a neglect to advertise in the local paper is an infallible symptom of dry rot. The moral of this observation lies in the application of it. On water as well as on land the record is being constantly lowered. The steamer Etruria's time from New York to Queenstown on her last trip was six days, five hours and thirty-five minutes, the fastest time ever made. A correspondent writing from Victoria, in Australia, gives this advice to visitors: "If you enter into conversation with a re-spectable-looking individual to whom you are a stranger, on no account ask him if he is a member of the Legislature. You can not offer him a greater insult." The Victoria Legislature must be in nearly as bad odor as the California lawmakers. Canada has long been a most convenient refuge for rogues and swindlers who have made themselves amenable to the laws of this country. This fact is fully admitted by the papers of that province, and the Herald of Montreal says that the time has come to take from Canada the reproach of being the refuge of the rascality of the United States. It says that the Imperial Government is ready to give its sanction to any reasonable arrangement that the States may desire to make with the Dominion to abate the nuisance. Something should be done at once. They are "seeing the elephant" now in Slam, and are having a high old time in consequence. The sacred white elephant has arrived at Bangkok from the interior. There was a grand procession on his arrival; certain parties going up the river to meet him, others waiting his arrival at the landing. The result of the special city election in Los Angeles on Monday last, to authorize the issuance of $245,000 of city bonds for building an addition to the City Hall, increasing irrigation facilities and enlarging the sewer system of the city, shows what little interest is manifested by the people at large in a matter that deeply concerns them. Compared with the vote of last fall, much less than half a vote was polled. When the amount of the bonds to be issued is taken into consideration, (nearly a quarter of a million), it is astonishing to note the apathy displayed by the voters of the city. When a primary election for delegates to a County Convention is held, it will be open that there is a much larger attendance at the polls when, perhaps, the issue is of small importance, but when it comes to the issuance of hundreds of thousands of dollars for purposes that may or may not be in the highest degree necessary, no interest whatever is manifested by those directly interested. The above remarks have no reference to whether the result of the election was the thing to be desired or not. Cyclone pits have promoted a schism in a Milton county, Ga., church. Some of the members had dug and fitted up such places of refuge, which were considered by the majority of the brethren as a flagrant violation of their doctrine and a temptation to God to wipe them off the face of the earth. As the pit diggers were more fearful of cyclones than of the wrath of God, they organized themselves into a church under the name of the Cyclone "Primitive," whereas the old church has assumed the name of Anti-Cyclone Primitives. Pacific Coast News. By an accident on the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad near Peach Springs, A. T., Monday last, Mrs. Burt Downing was killed, and her husband, Mrs. J. P. Brady, and a man named Fenner, were injured. The third-class excursion business between Los Angeles and the East is booming; there being several parties who gake a business of conducting them. Half a dozen or more are run every month at low prices. A barge stuck in the sand while trying to pass the draw of the bridge below Sacramen-to yesterday, and passengers by the eight-colock train had to be ferried across the river. News of shocks. Frank Mitchell has been on suspicion of being dered the woman whose floating in the Charles River and who the police now ell's wife. Talmage preached at London, Sunday, on "Prices." Fully 20,000 pts.

The sacred white elephant has arrived at Bangkok from the interior. There was a grand procession on his arrival; certain parties going up the river to meet him, others waiting his arrival at the landing stage. The priests have been busy with religious ceremonies, and great relics and foats have taken place within the palace grounds. The King has conferred a title upon him and selected luxurious quarters. He appears to be a young animal and is of a peculiar grayish color, as near an approach to white as they have yet found in Siam. In the wine-growing districts of European countries the custom of introducing American vines is beginning to prevail with the most marked favorable results. Where the phylloxera has made great ravages, the vineyards have been saved through the introduction of American vines, and when the post broke out in Austria and Hungary the Government proceeded to establish nurseries or mother gardens as they are termed for the propagation of these vines from the seeds. Thus in one district, Klosternenburg, where the phylloxera first made its appearance and caused great losses, there are said to have been planted upwards of 20,000 American grape vines, of which those raised from American seeds are believed to possess a greater resistability to insects as well as frost, etc., than any others. The Sacramento Record-Union brings the information that the white scale is in that city. It says: "To our shame it is said the white cottony cushion scale is now naturalized in Sacramento. It is on Seventh and F streets, Eleventh and F streets, and an I street, near Twelfth, is a frightful sight for fruitraisers to look at. Los Angeles or Santa Barbara cannot show a tree heavier loaded with this post. If nothing is done by the City Trustees by ordinance and inspection immediately to exterminate this enemy of man, we will not long have surplus fruit to dispose of. These insects will be all over town. They prefer the orange, but will eat anything vegetable and increase rapidly, and as they emerge from their parent shell hundreds must fall to the ground and make a new colony in the next tree they come to. Its transmission is very easily explained. Anyone coming in contact with an infected tree is liable to carry with him scores unknown to himself, as they are in infancy imperceptible to the naked eye. The leaves infested by them can be carried by winds; animals passing by the trees will spread them everywhere, and if we are no more energetic in this matter than our southern neighbors the beauty of Sacramento will soon be a matter of past history. Pacific Coast News. By an accident on the Atlantic and Pacific Rails near Peach Springs, A. T., Monday last, Mrs. Bart Downing was killed, and her husband, Mrs. J. P. Brady, and a man named Penner, were injured. The third-class excursion business between Los Angeles and the East is booming, there being several parts who make a business of conducting them. Half a dozen or more are run every month at low prices. A barge stuck in the sand while trying to pass the draw of the bridge below Sacramento to yesterday, and passengers by the eight clock train had to be ferried across the river. A big strike of free milling ore in the San Pedro mountains, about seventy miles northeast of Tucson, is reported. The assays are large and the lede crips out for a mile and a half. The Marysville foundry had a narrow escape from destruction Saturday night. A huge kettle of melted iron was overturned, but an employee seized a shovel and covered the flowing mass with molting sand. The Chinese cook at the Monte Vista Hotel, twenty miles north of Los Angeles, hanged himself Sunday. He is supposed to be the Chinaman who murdered Thos Dampsey in a pool room in San Francisco. The Bancidine monks at Mount Angel, Org., have been running a distillery for some time, turning out spirits from apples that was 18 above proof. The outfit was seized, and the monks claimed to be ignorant of the law. The Coroner's jury in the case of Mary Christiansen, who committed suicide Thursday evening before nine o'clock, fatally accrued the cause of the act. She was an apprentice from the San Francisco Boya' and Girls' Aid Society. The four men who deserted from the British man-of-war a San Diego were found by a constable hidden in the brush near that place, but as they were armed with rulers, the officer did not force his acquaintance on them. Subsequently they are reported to have made their escape on a Chinese junk. Saturday night at 7:35 Guaymas, Mexico, was visited by a severe earthquake.* There were five distinct vibrations from north to south. For several days past the weather has been insufferably hot. No damage was done, but all were well scared. The Northern Pacific Railroad has made a reduction of 33 per cent on fruit and vegetables in carload lots between Portland and Missouri river points. The new rate is $125 per hundred. A reduction of 33 to 50 per cent on lumber has also been made in Oregon and Washington Territory. A young lady, 23 years of age, committed suicide Wednesday morning at old San Diego by shooting herself through the heart with a pistol. Her name was Violet. She was a daughter of Thomas Whaley, one of the pioneers of San Diego. She was married several years since, and the desertion of her husband produced melancholy that led her to destroy herself. San Francisco, August 18.-The city was startled this afternoon by news that the Norwegian bark Jorrefjurer, from Agapaleo to British Columbia, had put in here with Panama yellow fever aboard. The Captain reported that one sailor died with the fever on the trip up. Several others are down with the same disease. He put into this port for medical assistance. The vessel has been quarantined. Officers are now investigating the disease. At Oakland Robert Mitchell, a barkeeper of San Francisco, fatally wounded his mistress, Minnie C. Siquerez, on Broadway street near Ninth, one of the most public places in the city Tuesday afternoon. The cause of his act is said to be her refusal to live with him.

A Notorious Star William Smith, alias C was convicted of riffing W treasure-box aboard the s "The administration as a beekeeper" is the curious title of an article in a New York paper. It appears that our Democratic Administration is branching out into new ways, and the latest novelty is the establishment of a Democratic beekeeping institution at Aurora, Illinois, under the auspices of the so-called Department of Agriculture. Mr. Nelson W. McLain has been appointed chief bee keeper in this new concern, whether with or without a preliminary civil service examination the public are not informed. He is instructed "to secure the introduction and domestication of such races of bees as are reported to possess desirable traits and characteristics; to prove by experiment their value to the agriculture of the United States, and their adaptation to our climate and honey-producing flora; to make experiments in crossing and mingling of races; to test the various methods of preparing bees for winter; to gather statistics concerning the bee-keeping industry in the United States; to make observations concerning the varieties of honey-producing plants; to study the true causes of disease and the best methods of preventing or curing them; and to obtain facts as to the capacity of bees to injure fruit. It is quite possible that we may yet have a national dry goods store or government peanut stand." SAN FRANCISCO, August 18.—The city was startled this afternoon by news that the Norwegian hark Jørgafjær, from Acapulco to British Columbia, had put in here with Panama yellow fever aboard. The Captain reported that one sailor died with the fever on the trip up. Several others are down with the same disease. He put into this port for medical assistance. The vassel has been quarantined. Officers are now investigating the disease. At Oakland Robert Mitchell, a barkeeper of San Francisco, fatally wounded his mistress, Minnie C. Siquerez, on Broadway street near Ninth, one of the most public places in the city Tuesday afternoon. The cause of his act is said to be her refusal to live with him. Mitchell was arrested and jailed. There is no hope for the woman's recovery. Mitchell is a son of the late Thomas A. Mitchell, who was cashier in the Tax Collector's office under Alexander Austin. The Circus [S. F. Chronicle.] It is rarely enough that one is justified to speak in terms of unqualified praise of circus performances. The migratory tent-shows depend too much as a rule upon their flaming posters and do not remain long enough in any one place to pay proper attention to the quality of their entertainments. Barrett's double show is a gratifying exception to this rule, inasmuch as the performers are measurably skilled and daring, and the programme is not merely faithfully carried out, but the performance throughout is of a superior quality. Robinson and Stickney are still the most marvelous riders in the world, and the manage act by Miss Lake is superb. The aerobic performances are excellent and in many respects novel. The variety of feats, from roller skating to mid-air velocipede riding, from the artistic fire juggling to astonishing feats of strength, make this an entertainment of extraordinary merit. The menagerie is very large and the specimens for the most part rare and interesting animals. Some of the horses are perfect models of equine beauty, and their intelligent training reflects great credit upon the management. The clowns are—well, as clowns generally are, only more of them. This circus will exhibit at Anaheim on Monday next, and the small boy—likewise his father and mother, and his sisters and cousins and aunts—are on the qul vive.

Frank Mitchell has been arrested in Boston on suspicion of being the man who murdered the woman whose body was found floating in the Charles river some time ago, and who the police now believe was Mitchell's wife. Talmage preached at City Road Chapel, London, Sunday, on "Unappreciated Services." Fully 20,000 people were present. The crowd was so enormous that he was compelled to preach out of doors, after preaching in the chapel. The yacht Priscilla has had five feet of her mast cut off and the same added to her topmast. All superfluous deck-work, including sky lights, is also to be moved prior to the trials outside Sandy Hook, to determine which yacht shall be selected by the committee of the New York Club to defend the America cup next month from the challenge of the Genesta. The most powerful gun in the world is said to be the new dynamite gun recently constructed in the shops of Ribbon & March, at Jersey City, weighing forty-three tons, and has a barrel sixty feet long. It is fired by compressed air, and carries a projectile five feet in length, a chamber in which is loaded with 190 pounds of dynamite. The dynamite explodes when the projectile strikes. A Fort Reno, Kan., special says: News has been received of a desperate fight between a number of cowboys occurring at the ranch of Frank Murry, thirty-five miles southwest of here in the Chickasaw Nation. A party of twenty-five cowboys rode up to the ranch and fired about one hundred shots at the boys inside the ranch cabin with whom they had a quarrel over stock. The boys inside, being well armed, returned the fire with deadly effect, killing Dick Covart and seriously wounding Dick Jones and Bob Woods of the attacking party. This makes four who have been killed over the trouble at this ranch since April. Covart, who was killed, also Jones and Woods, have been notorious characters in the Territory. In Detroit, Tuesday, policeman Guyman was taken sick, turning black in the face and having a desire to vomit. He suffered great pain and it was said that he had cholera. There was some affirming that it was a true case of Asiatic cholera, while others believed it plain cholera morbus. Several other officers at the same station were taken sick with similar symptoms. There seemed a good beginning for a cholera scar, but an investigation shows that while one or two men have mild attacks of cholera morbus most of them have no such disease. Officer Guyman was suffering severely from constipation which caused nausea and an emetic was given and has somewhat relieved him. The others were similarly affected. Frank Rooh, an alleged notorious California criminal, was arrested Saturday at Salria, twenty miles south of Birmingham, Ala. A Boston Opinion. Col. Walter S. Davis, formerly of Ansburn but now of Placer county, places us under obligations for a copy of the Boston Gazette in which we find the following paragraph: The use of native wines in this country has increased rapidly within a few years. A dealer in these wines said recently: "The climate of California is superior to that of France for the growth of the vine. In the first place, the air is drier in Southern California than in Southern France, and the season for growing the grape and curing it is longer; it begins some six weeks earlier. The season opens in California along in February. While in France it is not before the 1st of April, and the period for the growth and development of the grape extends somewhat later into the fall. The consequence is that the grape grows more slowly, develops greater saccharine properties, and is richer and better in every way for the purposes of wine-making. The great difficulty, however, which has stood in the way of the production of a grade of wine to compete with that of France has been the inexperience of the growers of the vine. But this disadvantage has in a great measure been obviated now, and one great reason, if not the chief one, for the increase in business is the improved quality of the wine sold. Our native growers have been slowly mastering the secret of European methods in growing the vine and curing the grape. Take this increased knowledge, together with the superior climate of California, and why should we not now have an American wine which will rival, yes, even surpass that of France, Spain and Sunny Italy? It is merely a question of time." NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. "Most advertising is a specious show, But please, in our case, do not think it so." The rare advantages which Eola Tea possesses over other pure, and (perhaps) originally as good teas, are, that it has been cured by the only patented process, (March 18th, 1884, No. 235,290) ever issued, and is imported in the only tin can which, by special decision of the Treasury Department, (August 7th, 1882) passes the Custom House Pacific Coast Steamship COMPANY.

Frank Reed, an alleged notorious California criminal, was arrested Saturday at Siluria, twenty miles south of Birmingham, Ala. Reed went there one year ago with a wife and two children. A detective worked up the case and kept up with his man, acting the role of carpenter and lumberman, and thus managing to get enough of his confidence to warrant his arresting him. The prisoner, when arrested, said: "I know what it is for. I know it is about a cattle matter in the West. I am a guilty man." He even confesses that he killed a man in Salida, Cal., and a woman in a Texas baglio, besides stealing more cattle than he knew what to do with. The Chief of Police of Salida was telegraphed to last night to send a man to identify Reed. A New Orleans special gives the following news: A terrible accident is reported from Little Caillon, Terrebonne Parish. A few days ago, while Emile Liretta was moulding bullets for his gun, preparatory to joining a number of friends in target shooting, he asked his wife to fill his powder loaf for him. She was some ten twelve feet from the fireplace, where a few coal wares sprang. The saw was but half completed, when a gust of wind suddenly blowing through the open door sent the sparks straight at the powder, which ignited and a terrific explosion followed. The roof of the dwelling was torn off, three children were instantly killed, the mother received such injuries that before many hours she too was dead, while the husband and father and two children were badly wounded. The noise of the explosion brought a number of neighbors to the scene, where the bruised and blackened bodies of the whole family told the sail story. A Boston special of August 18th says: There arrived in this city yesterday morning by the steamer from Charlestown, Prince Edward Island, Harriet McKinnon. Her sister was to meet her on her arrival. The young girl waited until 9 A.M. when her sister not appearing, she went ashore. An elderly woman accosted her, and after some conversation they left the wharf together, since which time nothing has been heard of the girl. This is the first case of abduction that has attracted public attention, but it has been rather a customary thing for the boat on its arrival to be met by women who seem to seek out young and unprotected female passengers, and engaging them for "housework" drive off with them. The stewardess and deck-hands on board the boat, knowing of the dangers overshadowing young women passengers, had warned Miss Harriet not to leave the boat till her sister arrived. It is announced that within two weeks a procuree was stopped on the way from this boat with two young girls. Her victims were liberated. They did not know of their danger, and were simply going to work, as they thought, in a large hotel. Harriet McKinnon was within one month of being fifteen years old, but her plump, robust figure gave her the appearance of being eighteen. A general alarm has been sent out, advertisements have been inserted in the papers, and every effort is being made to rescue her. A Notorious Stage Robber. William Smith, alias C. P.

Weibusch, who was convicted of rifling Wells, Fargo & Co.'s treasure box aboard the stage from Milton to Sonora, December 29th, 1881, and sentenced to five years at San Quentin, was released Saturday, having completed his sentence, less allowances for good behavior. He was immediately re-arrested by the United States Marshal on a warrant charging him with having robbed the mails on the same stage. Yesterday morning he was arraigned in the United States District Court and pleaded not guilty. Smith has also committed several other robberies. The "Robbers' Record" of Wells, Fargo & Co., has the following concerning his most notorious exploit: "On June 29, 1881, he robbed Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express on the stage from Sierraville to Truckee, alone. While waiting in ambush for the arrival of the stage from Sierra Valley, Sol Rousseau appeared with a light wagon and six passengers. The robber stood them all up out of sight of the road for one and a half hours, until the stage from Sierra Valley arrived. This contained four passengers, all of whom were compelled to get down, except G. Q. Buxton, the driver, who was obliged to break open Wells, Fargo & Co.'s box and hand out the contents. While this was going on two other vehicles approached, and the driver in each was compelled to get down and mingle with the audience. At the close of the afternoon's performance he had thirteen men, sixteen horses and four vehicles under the control of his little shotgun." When Baby was alck, we gave her CASTORIA.
