WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY AUGUST 14, 1886 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The Assembly has adopted the report of the Special Investigation Committee which dismissed all charges of incompetency made by D. S. Terry against Supreme Court Justices Morrison and Sharpstein. Florida papers are advising their readers to preserve oranges by packing them in sand. Judging by last winter's experience, what the Florida orange needs is a woolen undershirt. Senator Stanford has sent to the German Land and Cattle Co., of 123 California street, San Francisco, a quantity of seeds for distribution, which will be sent, free of charge, to anyone applying for them. The San Francisco Local Passenger Agents' Association has broken up, and each road is now paying what commission it pleases, or cut rates to the East to any amount it chooses. Another era of low railroad rates is on hand. A strong effort, however, will be immediately made to reconstruct the Association. The incoherence of the dispatches from Sacramento is such that it is difficult to tell what the Legislature is doing. A multitude of bills are subjected to a multitude of amendments, referred from one committee to another until chaotic confusion reigns, at least to those whose information is received through the medium of the press dispatches. Mrs. Kate Chase says the woman suffragists have her sympathy, but she has such unbounded faith in the power of woman that she believes "they will do whatever they want to do; whenever they want to vote they will vote, and no power on earth will stop them." There is said to be a hot spring at Elko, Nevada, from which an excellent imitation of chicken soup is made by simply flavoring the water with salt and pepper. The Sacramento Bee says there are many persons in that city who confirm the statement and say There was a Democratic Convention in Texas on Wednesday. One of the candidates for Governor made a hold bid for the nomination. He declared that if he received the nomination and was elected, and if war was declared, in twenty-four hours he would lead a force into Mexico and every man would have a hacienda. Whether this declaration brought the nomination, the telegraph is silent. The Cutting Case. New York, August 12.—General Dan Sickles, speaking about the Cutting muddle yesterday, said: "In comparison with the United States, Mexico is a feeble power and very much inferior in military, naval and financial resources. California and Texas, unaided, would conquer her. My solution is that she would like to repeat the maneuver of Santa Anna in 1846. Mexico knows if we take a slice of Chihuahua, Sonora and Lower California, we would take a territory valuable to us and valueless to Mexico, and that we might do now as we did in 1846, pay Mexico handsomely for territory taken. Public opinion in Mexico would not permit their government to sell this territory by any peaceable transaction. If a conflict was provoked by the Mexicans, and we were to help ourselves to such parts of their territory as we might want, we could well afford to pay a good round sum—twenty-thirty or even forty million dollars. Such replenishment of the Mexican Treasury at this time would enable Gen. Diaz and his government to go on very handsomely during the rest of his term of office. Mexico has not the means to pay her army or her civil service, and must sell land peaceably. This would be impossible. A mob would hang Diaz and his Cabinet in the streets of the capital if they sold national territory; but if thirty millions or more of gold can be drawn into the Mexican Treasury from the United States after a campaign or two, in which we would take possession of Chihuahua, Sonora and Lower California, she would accept the situation as she has done once before." City of Mexico, August 12.—The discussion of the Cutting case goes on in the press and among lawyers whom it interests because of the important questions raised, but there is no heat in the discussion. The better class of people hope that the two governments will settle the matter either by mutually friendly adjustment, or through equally friendly arbitration. An interesting question is propounded by a learned lawyer here who asks if Cutting be guilty of libel on both sides of the river, why cannot the Appellate Court of the State of Chihuahua locate judgment for the crime on the Mexican and not on the American side, thus relieving the case of its international character. Swept by Flames. MRS. KATE CHASE says the woman suffragists have her sympathy, but she has such unbounded faith in the power of women that she believes "they will do whatever they want to do; whenever they want to vote they will vote, and no power on earth will stop them." There is said to be a hot spring at Elko, Nevada, from which an excellent imitation of chicken soup is made by simply flavoring the water with salt and pepper. The Sacramento Bee says there are many persons in that city who confirm the statement, and say that the dish would pass at table for genuine chicken broth. The saddest and in many respects the most distressing result of prohibition in Iowa takes the form of a report that a distillery there has been converted into a piano manufactory. The gain in this instance is small, indeed. What may have been only a local nuisance now becomes the bane of households all over the State. In Butler county, Pennsylvania, the editor of the Millerstown Herald thought to discourage the efforts of the Good Templars by caricatured their work. The women of the town marched in a body to the office of the Herald and cowhidied the editor severely. Those women had more zeal than discretion, and rather more than the law allows in action. Commissioner Miller has begun preparations for carrying into effect the provisions of the Oleomargarine bill, and has called upon all Collectors of Internal Revenue for such information as they may possess in regard to the production of oleomargarine, with the object of utilizing it in the preparation of the necessary regulations to govern the collection of the tax. A Chicago theatrical manager has made a startling proposition to the authorities to save the county $4,000. If the eight anarchists are convicted, he is to produce a play, in which the hanging occurs on the stage, no dummy being used. He proposes to make this scene realistic, and agrees to hang one anarchist nightly for eight nights, without expense to the county, allowing the Sheriff to officiate, if thought necessary, and to provide a private box for the officials. Alfalfa is now being raised in some parts of the East, and concerning its growth the Prairie Farmer says: "There is very little growth the first year; during the second a small amount of forage may be cut, but it is not until the third year that a full crop is produced." This shows the marked difference between Eastern growth and as seen in this State, as the California farmer would hardly be in favor of alfalfa if he had to wait until the third year to get a full crop. Noth- Swept by Flames. Milwaukee, Aug. 11. Though the forests in the northern tier of counties in this State are still ablaze, and are likely to remain on fire till rains quench the flames, the danger to villages and towns is over, unless heavy gales should sweep down upon them. While not over a dozen cases of human creation are reported, it is believed that many backwoodsmen and families remote from the settlements, cannot possibly have escaped. The fatality to live stock has been terrible. Hundreds of charred bodies of cattle lie on the black tract of devastation. It is estimated that in Calumet, Clark, Marathon and a few adjoining counties 500 families are rendered homeless and destitute, and will suffer unless immediate relief is sent them. Many of these people had narrow escapes from death, having hidden in wells or submerged themselves up to their necks in streams with wet blankets covering their heads until the fire passed. In some places the fire swooped down so suddenly upon the people that they barely had time to seek this method of safety. In other places the roar of the flames was heard for miles and the terror stricken people fled madly before the flames to the neighboring villages and houses. The loss cannot be estimated. Hundreds of houses, dozens of sawmills and lumber camps and millions of feet of timber are in ashes. Acres upon acres of ripening grain were laid waste. To-nights' advices are that the fires are abating considerably by running into clearings and because the wind has died out. Belligerent Earp. Virg. Earp of Colton. ex-desperado of Arizona, feels happy. The Colton Semi-Tropic says: We call attention of all the mortally-inclined to the notice published in today's paper by V. W. Earp asking for volunteers for a cavalry company to go to fight Mexico in the event war is declared against that country. If war is declared by the United States, a cavalry company of volunteers, all drilled and equipped, would soon be sent into action. Mr. Earp will take the names of all who feel like enlisting, and have the list ready in the case of an emergency. Tilden's Gift. New York, August 7.—The late Samuel J. Tilden's beautiful city residence in Gramercy Park, with its large collections of rare and carefully assorted books, will become the property of the city of New York for use as a public library. In his will provisions are made for the transfer. John Biglow and Manton Marble, of New York, and Henry Watterson, of Kentucky, are named as trustees. The value of the building is $1,000,000. The library is estimated to be worth $100,000. A 3-year-old child siding near Alva of a slice of bread rater."

ALFALFA is now being raised in some parts of the East, and concerning its growth the Prairie Farmer says: "There is very little growth the first year; during the second a small amount of forage may be cut, but it is not until the third year that a full crop is produced." This shows the marked difference between Eastern growth and as seen in this State, as the California farmer would hardly be in favor of alfalfa if he had to wait until the third year to get a full crop. Nothing less than three crops the first year will satisfy an Anaheim farmer. EDISON, the electrician, is going to Florida to experiment on earth currents. He cannot do it at his home in New Jersey because there is too much mineral in the soil. In Florida it is all sand. He says there are currents of electricity passing all the time through the earth, but their directions are unknown. A knowledge of them may revolutionize telegraphy. It may revolutionize the meteorological bureau system and make it forecast the weather exactly. Telegraphic wires sooner or later will be a thing of the past. And what is better still, "wires down" will be "a thing of the past." So long as there was no record of a man surviving an attempt to navigate the rapids of the Niagara, there was a certain notoriety for the first person who should succeed. The whirlpool rapids part of the falls has now been placed upon the list of navigable streams by three different persons. There will not be much glory for the fourth, and the fifth will probably be voted a public nuisance. One of the men who last passed through the rapids stuck his head through an opening in his cask and smoked a cigar, just to show that he was not afraid. Conditions under which a cigar could be smoked with less danger cannot well be imagined. There was at least no danger of setting fire to the surroundings. Tilden's Gift New York, August 7.—The late Samuel J. Tilden's beautiful city residence in Grameroy Park, with its large collections of rare and carefully assorted books, will become the property of the city of New York for use as a public library.

The library is estimated to be worth $100,000. Railroad War SAN FRANCISCO, August 12.—The Southern Pacific Company has made a rate of $35 to New Orleans, which is $7.50 cheaper than the rate of the other overland roads to St. Louis. This has caused much feeling on the part of the other roads, and they have asked the Southern Pacific Company to increase the rate to equal that made by them to St. Louis. It is believed that this may open another general war of rates. Lynch, Hearst and Cleveland. SAN BUENAVENTURA, August 12.—Democratic primaries were held to-day. J. Marion Brooks, Wash. Woodberry, F. Hartman, T. B. Steepleton, N. Hearne, Joe J. Salzido, N. Vickers and John F. Mitchell are elected so far. The delegation favors George Hearst for Governor and Joseph D. Lynch, editor of the Los Angeles Herald, for Congress. Cleveland's administration will be indorsed. Mrs. L. Borgia, Jr. Boston, August 12.—It is understood that the Somerville police have information of the suspicious deaths of at least eleven persons directly or indirectly related to Mrs. Sarah Jane Robinson, who is under arrest. The dead persons were insured in a benefit organization and the money in most cases fell into this woman's hands. Go to Lawrence & Soo, in Downey Block, and get the finest photographs you ever had for only $3.50 per dozen.

Col. W. W. Hollister, one of the most prominent citizens of Santa Barbara, died Sunday afternoon, aged 63 years, after a lingering illness. At San Jose on Saturday night, burglar robbed the portoffice safe, securing about $2,000 in money and $1,000 in stamps, besides a lot of jewelry. The postmaster is a jeweler named F. M. Jackson. A game of baseball at Sacramento on Thursday between the Atlas and the Los Angeles clubs resulted in a victory for Sacramento, who won by a score of 7 to 2. The 16-year-old son of one of the highest personages connected with the Spanish court has created a scandal by running away with $10,000 worth of his mother's jewels and the pretty family washerwoman. Harry O'Hale left Silver Peak, Nev., last Thursday morning for Palmetto. Not arriving, a searching party went out and found him dead on the desert, with his water canteen empty. H. Branscomb of Santa Maria, Santa Barbara county, offers to wager $300 that he can pack a sack of wheat weighing 107 pounds three miles distant without stopping to rest or changing the sack. The 10-year-old son of A. Harmon was burned to death on the ranch of J. W. Tuttill near Vacaville Monday. He was burning brush, and in attempting to cross a creek in answer to his father's call, became blinded with the smoke and fell into a washout filled with burning brush. The daughter of James Opie, aged nine years, started to kindle a fire with coal oil at Missouri Flat, Placer county, Wednesday. The oil can exploded. In fifteen minutes the girl was a corpse. The house took fire and everything was consumed. Not even the clothing of the inmates was saved. The discovery of a rich oil belt five miles from Livermore, in this State, is reported. The surface indications are pronounced the finest ever discovered in this country, and the yield of oil which it is expected to obtain will, it is believed, surpass that of the famous Thorn Creek region of Pennsylvania. A company has been incorporated under the name of the Alameda Oil and Gas Company with Louis Holtz as President and A. K. Green, Vice-President. A 3-year-old daughter of John Moffit, residing near Alvarado, by accident laid hold of a slice of bread covered with "rough on rats." The child had eaten the whole of it before her danger was discovered. The drug was doing its deadly work very rapidly, when, as there was no doctor near at hand, the child was given a plentiful dose of some simple antidote, which saved her life for the time, though she is still very sick. The bodies of Barney Martin, his wife and two sons were found Tuesday in an ash heap between the Vulture mine and Phoenix, NEWS ITEMS. In the South the negroes are being admitted, it is reported, into the Knights of Labor organization. Hanlan rowed three miles with a turn on Lake Quinigamond, Mass., in 19 minutes and 23 seconds, beating all his previous records. An ex-minister named Reynolds, who, a few days ago, undertook to preach infidelity in a tent at Boonten, N. J., was mobbed out of the town. The directors of the Metropolitan Railway of Boston have decided to discontinue the use of horses, and are likely to introduce the cable or electricity. Wm. Potta and George Hayslitt, two coopers, successfully navigated Niagara whirlpool rapids in a cask Sunday. The voyage occupied fifty-five minutes. Fifteen thousand people witnessed the feat. A young man in Elizabeth, N. J., recently agreed on a wager to drink all the whisky his companion would pay for. He imbibed twelve large glasses, walked a short distance and fell dead. A Jefferson, N. H., man recently kept his wife in the river waist-deep handling out slabs and handing them to him on the bank, until a Justice of the Peace interfered and ordered him to take his wife out of the water and keep her out. The citizens of Georgia will in October vote upon a constitutional amendment to supply artificial limbs to Confederate soldiers and make suitable provision for such men as were permanently injured in the field. The late parishioners of Rev. Wm. J. Sherman, a Brooklyn, N. Y., Catholic priest, were so exasperated over his recent marriage to Miss Tillie McCoy that they first defaced and then sank a yacht that he owned which had been named after the lady. At Somgrset, Ky., on Tuesday, Mrs. Wm. Massey, wife of a well-known citizen, gave birth to three children. Two of the babies were connected by a strong ligament exactly similar to the bonds uniting the Siamese twins. The ligament was two and a half inches long. All were dead when born. The steamer San Pablo, which arrived in San Francisco from Yokohama Sunday, brings news of fierce ravages of cholera in Japan. The total number of deaths in Yokohama in one week was 161. It has been declared an infected port, and all vessels will be subjected to quarantine regulations. There is much discouragement among the negroes of Hale county, Ala., because of the unusually poor prospects of crops. Meetings are held nightly by the colored people who adopt resolutions calling on the landlords to lower the rent of land. It is said that the inmates of the Soldiers' And as glances have highly promoted our seeing no 'tis not improbable but that they may be found many mechanical inventions improve our other senses of hearing, smelling, tasting, touching.

And though some mons authors have affirmed it impossible to hear through the thinnest plate of Muscovy glass yet I know a way by which it is easy enough to hear one speak through a wall yard thick. It has not yet been thoroughly examined how far Otocousticons may be proved, nor what other ways there may be of quickening our hearing or conveying sound through other bodies than the air; for that is not the only medium. I can assure the reader that I have, by the help of a distended wire, propagated the sound to a very considerable distance in an instant, or with as seemingly quick a motion as that of light at least, incomparably swifter than that which at the same time was propagated through the air; and this not only in straight line, or direct, but in one bend in many angles.-From works of Robert Hooke, published in 1664.

The bodies of Barney Martin, his wife and two sons were found Tuesday in an ash heap between the Vulture mine and Phoenix, A. T. Martin and family left their home at Weaver, fifty miles from Prescott, for Mariopa on July 20th. As he had just sold his ranch, he had about four thousand dollars in his possession. The family had been murdered and the bodies then burned on a pile of brush. Customs Inspector Holmes discovered 395 pounds of crude opium, valued at $3,000, in a coffin on board the steamship City of Peking in San Francisco harbor last Saturday. It is thought that large quantities of the drug have been smuggled ashore in coffins supposed to contain bodies of defunct Chinamen. The Celestials have a great dread of being buried at sea, and it is the practice, therefore, for the China steamers to carry caskets wherein those dying on the voyage can be preserved for burial ashore. At Sacramento, Tuesday, a shooting affray took place between Milton McWhorter, editor of the Marysville Democrat, and Thos. G. Robinson, Deputy United States Marshal. Robinson came up to McWhorter, who was sitting in front of the State House, and asked him if he was the author of a newspaper clipping that he showed him. Receiving an affirmative reply, Robinson struck McWhorter, and in the scuffle which followed McWhorter drew a pistol and shot Robinson in the abdomen. The wound proved fatal. McWhorter has been placed under arrest. A Tombstone telegram says: Lieutenant Gatewood, five weeks ago, went with thirty-two soldiers and two Chirachua scouts in search of Geronimo's camp, for the purpose of allowing the Chirachua scouts to make a treaty. The Chirachua are believed to be two runners who have kept up communication between Geronimo and the San Carlos reservation ever since the outbreak, as they said knew the hostiles' whereabouts. Gatewood has not been heard from yet, although two weeks have elapsed since some word should have been received from him. Another instance of Geronimo's treachery might thus result in the loss of thirty-two men. During the encampment of the G. A. R. in San Francisco, Comrade George Young, of Stanton Post, 55, of Los Angeles, inaugurated a movement for the organization of a corps of war prisoners. Young collected a hundred and eighteen dollars in initiation fees from subscribers, and on Monday last promised to turn over the money to the Secretary of the newly organized association if the latter would call at his rooms for it. The Secretary did so, but was informed by the landlady that Mr. Young had gone to Los Angeles without leaving any word for those who might call on him.

A Water Monopoly. The Miller & Lux attempt to monopolize the waters of Kern river, in Kern county, is illustrated by the fact that that monopolistic firm has sued one hundred and twelve (112) propriators of water in Kern county, among whom are several canal companies—all of whom are irrigators. These men who are sued are some of them poor and some of them wealthy. A parallel case would be for the owners of the Bolsa Chica ranch, at the mouth of the Santa Ana river, to commence suit against the Anaheim Union Water Company, the Santa Ana Irrigating Company, the various owners of land in the Yorba settlement above Anabeim, the owners of land in the Yorba ranch at the head of Bedrock canyon, the Riverside Water Company, the South Fork Ditch Company, the Redlands' water company, and about one hundred citizens who have water rights in the Santa Ana river, asking that all of them turn their waters back into the bed of the Santa Ana river, in order that the same might flow down across the Bolsa Chica ranch and make the land therof more moist than it is to-day. Haggin & Carr and over a hundred other people and canal companies are defendants in over a hundred different water suits, and Haggin & Carr are making their suit a test case, because it involves the most water and they are better able to defend their case than most of the small land owners who are compelled to defend themselves against the water monopoly schemes of Moresa.

A Mystery. How the human system ever recovers from the bad effects of the nauseous medicines often literally poured into it for the suppositive relief of dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipation, rheumatism and other ailments, is a mystery. The mischief done by bad medicines is scarely less than that caused by disease if they who are weak bilious, dyspeptic, constipated or rheumatic, would oftener be guided by the experience of invalids who have thoroughly tested. Hostetter's Stomach Bitterns, they would in every instance obtain the speclest aid derivable from rational medication. This medicine is a searching and at the same time a thoroughly safe remedy, derived from vegetable sources, and possessing, in consequence of its basis of pure spirits, properties as a medicinal stimulant not to be found in the fiery local bitterns and stimulants often resorted to by the debilitated, dyspeptic and languid.
