The Weekly Gazette. ISSUE EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel. Charles Kuchel. EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. THURSDAY.....FEBRUARY 27, 1896 The city election occurs on the second Tuesday in April, and all those patriotic citizens who desire to serve the people are informed that according to the requirements of the statutes they must file certificates of their candidacy with the City Clerk not later than twenty days before the date of the election. These certificates consequently must be filed by March 23d. The terms of Trustees Rust and McWilliams expire, and successors must be elected. The voters will also be called upon to elect a Marshal, Clerk and Assessor. A caucus of citizens will probably be held to nominate candidates for these offices. FREDERICK WARDE's interpretation of the tragedy of Julius Caesar, at the Los Angeles theater the other afternoon, and the good work of Mr. Sutton as Maro Antony, recalled a feature of our recent visit to San Francisco which for the time had been overlooked. While seeking for the new place of business a relative across the bay in Berkeley, we were given information as to his whereabouts by a gentleman whom we found seated in an easy chair before the establishment we were searching for, and whom we afterwards had the pleasure of meeting as none other than the well-known actor, E. J. Buckley, whose Maro Antony, played with the Booth and Barrett combination, in the starring tour of those greatest of all tragedians, some years ago, was the feature of this most splendid of all of Sheakepearean productions. It is not too much to say that Mr. Buckley's acting of this leading role was by press and publified precedence over the others in the cast, and nothing that had hitherto been witnessed had so forcibly illustrated the fact that the part of Antony was greater than either that of Brutus or of Cassius. That was the pinnacle of the histrionic reputation reached by this popular Californian actor, and had he remained in the enjoyment of physical health, it is impossible to conjecture to what heights of fame he might not have attained. However in Montreal he was overcome by paralysis; and his home in New Hampshire. Ten years ago Commodore Selfridge had a son in the navy, so that of the family there were at one time four members in the service. The senior member of the family was appointed a midshipman in the navy in 1818, served through the war and in 1866 was retired with the rank of rear-admiral. His son was appointed to the navy in 1851 and became a commodore two years ago. The younger brother is now a lieutenant-commander and was appointed to the service in 1864. TICKS FROM THE TELEGRAPH In the Santa Cruz Superior Court Jacob Jenson began suit against Martin Mayn to recover $10,000 damages for alienating his wife's affections. He alleges that he lived happily with his wife tourteen years, until Mayne persuaded her to leave home and take up a separate residence near Watsonville. Elizabeth Flagler, daughter of General Flagler, Chief of Ordnance, U. S. A., who last spring shot a colored boy named Green, a son of a treasury department messenger, in Washington, pleaded guilty to involuntary murder and was sentenced to three hours in jail and to pay a fine of $500. The California Supreme Court has decided that the primary election law, passed by the last Legislature, is unconstitutional, on the ground that it is special and local legislation. Chief Justice Beatty rendered the decision. All the other Justices concurred. It only applied to Los Angeles and San Francisco. Silver bullion sold in New York at the highest price Monday that it has reached in many months. There was an apparently good consol demand which advanced the rate to 70 cents. The rise was sharp and in sympathy with an upward movement in London. A raise to 75 cents will cause a boom in silver mining. The Cocopah volcanoes, seventy-five miles southwest of Yuma, are again violent. Those on the plains are throwing out water, stones and mud, while the dry ones and the solitary one in the mountain range pour forth smoke by day and flame by night, that can be plainly seen at a point fifteen miles west of here. There are 10,000 of these volcanoes on this plain, twenty-five miles north of the base of the mountains. They are active only at times, when their roar can be heard for twenty miles. At a meeting of the principal holders of California prunes in San Francisco, represent-90 per cent of the stock remaining on hand in the State, it was decided that in view of the decreased supply, which is was estimated was barely sufficient for the domestic spring trade, they were warranted in advancing the price of the four sizes in sacks to 4 cents. The price is to become effective immediately. It is general opinion that if the demandthe meantime the citizens had secured horsesand began the pursuit, the leaders followingwithin a quarter of a mile of the outlaws.The Panhandle and City National Banksimmediately offered a reward of $1000 for their capture, dead or alive. The latest reports are that the robbers are corralled in a large thicket in the midst of a pasture nine miles from town. The thicket is surrounded by twenty-five or thirty determined menwho are fully armed, and escape is almost impossible. They sent in for twenty-five additional men, who started immediately.Foster Crawford, one of the robberswho killed Cashier Dorsey, is said to be a noted desperado. It is also reported that one of the famous Christian brothers wasthe other man. The State championship shoot of the militiam at Sacramento Saturday has developed a charge of unfairness, which Gov Budd has promised to investigate. The experts with the pistol who competed on that occasion declare that Lieut. Peeler of Troop B, Cavalry, and a clerk in the Adjutant Generals' office, favored Sergeant Farrar on his command. They intimate that by order dering certain ammunition, with which the sergeant had been doing all his practicework, to be used by the contestants, he contributed not a little to the success of themman from his troop. Sergt. Farrar wonthe prize, making a score of 47. Mrs. A. W. Patterson of Madison, Wis., was shot by her husband, who then killed himself, at midnight Monday night, at theirhome in that city. A letter ostensibly from both parents was left to the children sayingthe husband and wife had resolved to die together. This declaration is however opposed by the fact that when found the wifewho was in her nightrobe, had one arm thrown across her face as if to shield it,and a bullet in her arm, while the husbandwas still fully dressed. Both attended revive services conducted by B. Fay Mills duringthe evening, and got home apparently in thiebest of spirits. The Executive Committee of the Republiccan State Central Committee met in SanFrancisco on Tuesday and decided that therepublican State Convention shall be heldMay 12.Now that the Supreme Courthas declared the new primary law unconstitutional,a call for the primaries will bepraisedIt will recommend that theStateConvention be composed of 610 delegatesone for every 200 votes cast for M.M.Estefor Governor at the last election,and ondelegate for every fraction over one hundredvotes so cast,and one delegate-at-largefromeach county in the State.SacramentoandSan Jose seem to be the only cities seekethe convention,and thus farSacramentseems to be in the lead. Justices of the Supreme Court ofCaliforniana have not been paid a cent for sales since October.There is sufficient moneyforthe treasury to meet their warrants,bbuttwarrants have not been presented.The Constitution provides that the justicesof therepublican Court shall draw no pay as long feature of this most splendid of all of Sheakepearean productions. It is not too much to say that Mr. Buckley's acting of this leading role was by press and publiqiven precedence over the others in the cast, and nothing that had hitherto been witnessed had so forcibly illustrated the fact that the part of Autony was greater than either that of Brutus or of Cassius. That was the pinnacle of the histrionic reputation reached by this popular Californian actor, and had he remained in the enjoyment of physical health, it is impossible to conjecture to what heights of fame he might not have attained. However in Montreal he was overcome by paralysis; and Alfred Boulevier, now the well-known treasurer of the Baldwin Theater in San Francisco, who was at the time Mr. Buckley's treasurer, was called upon from the front of the house to read the lines, which he did in surprisingly clever manner. Mr. Buckley has never recovered, and the fact that he was never given to excesses, but on the contrary was of uniformly abstemious temperament, makes the nature of his affliction all the more inexplicable. His was the greatest Antony the American stage ever saw, and Mr. Sutton, while finished and forceful in his conception of the lines, lacks the keen insight into the character and the fire that was characteristic of this one time illustrous histrionic star. Mr. Buckley lives in retirement at Berkeley, and while his condition is such that he has small hopes of recovery, we trust yet to hear of his emancipation from his thralldom—as other actors, notably Thomas Keene, have had the experience before him—and that he may rise again to his former eminence. Mr. Buckley is personally a very pleasant gentleman, and we hope for his complete restoration to health. Sousa is a very creditable bandmaster, but John Pauli is not Gilmore. Probably he will live after his time as the greatest composer of marches the world has ever seen, but whether he appears to disadvantage in the comparison because his coterie of musicians are of the present, while Gilmore's greatness is hallowed by the past, we do not pretend to say; but that his program of Saturday evening was better than the average Gilmore program, we doubt if a single auditor in the pavilion who had heard both would admit. Of course he opened with Tanhauser, with which the Yankee Gilmore had electrified the Berliners and Viennese. Sousa's versatility is shown by his encounters, although he responds to calls for them with too great alacrity. The multiplicity of them confounds one with the succeeding number on the list—for how is one to enjoy the new piece when impatient at considering it as a third or a fourth response to the Angeleno applause, which is never stinted—and when his mind is disabused further along, and his pleasures of anticipation give place to an irresistible desire to go out and see a man in the middle of the music? Gilmore went to Berlin, played Tanhauser, and was laughed at. Laughed at before the Berliners heard him. They had stood agastat at the idea of a Yankee band-master tickling the tympanum of their ears with Wagner in brass. But he captured the town, and going to Vienna with even this overtowering indomestia, the Austrians were upon the point of breaking for the hills and mud, while the dry ones and the solitary one in the mountain range pour forth smoke by day and flame by night, that can be plainly seen at a point fifteen miles west of here. There are 10,000 of these volcanoes on this plain, twenty-five miles north of the base of the mountains. They are active only at times, when their roar can be heard for twenty miles. At a meeting of the principal holders of California prunes in San Francisco, represent-90 per cent of the stock remaining on hand in the State, it was decided that in view of the decreased supply, which it was estimated barely sufficient for the domestic spring trade, they were warranted in advancing the price of the four sacks in sacks to 4 cents. The price is to become effective immediately. It is the general opinion that if the demand is active another advance may shortly be made. One of the largest gold brick swindles ever perpetrated in California has come to light through the arrest in San Francisco of a man who gave the name of Addison Mills, who is said to have secured a loan of $5000 from M. G. Ritchie, a wealthy business man of Oakville, Napa county, and given two worthless bricks said to be valued at $22,000, as security. Mills told Ritchie a fair tale about a wonderful gold mine discovered by an Indian, which would yield millions if developed. The gold bricks which were to be given as security for the loan were submitted to a fictitious assayer in league with Mills, who reported that they were worth $22,000. On this statement Ritchie partied with $5,000 and took the worthless bricks in return. Mills is said to have been known as Edward Thompson at Oakville. When arrested he was indignant and protested his innocence. West Virginia people are much excited over a recent find, which it is claimed, clears up a mystery of thirty-two years' standing, the remains of four human beings having been discovered in an abandoned coal mine near Colliors, that State. David Snyder explored the old mine, which has not been worked since the sixties, and discovered the human bones. One of the skeletons was sitting upright against a ledge. Beside this skeleton was found a flask that contained notes explaining the mysterious disappearance of John Ewing, Ben Ayers, Tom Ackelson and Joe Obney, thirty-two years ago. The notes are written in pencil but are well preserved. They read as follows: "November 2, 1863.—Should this ever reach outside world, let it be known that we (giving names) are prisoners here, owing to the caving in of the mine. We are deserters and were in hiding when the mine caved in. Food and water all gone. We are doomed, as no one outside is aware of our whereabouts. This is about the eighth day of our imprisonment." "November 4.—John Ewing and Tom Ackelson have just killed Ben Ayers; are eating him. I have already eaten my bootleg. The water in the mine is terrible. Our oil is getting scarce; air becoming foul. I only know the day of the month by my watch." "November 7 — I am now alone with the dead. I had to kill Ewing in self defense. I have just eaten my other bootleg. Am sleepy. Good bye. I enclose this note in this flask to preserve it if possible, so that if it is ever found our fate will be known." (Signed) "JOSEPH ORNEY." Old residents remember these men. It was generally believed that they had been killed in battle. No relatives of the deceased men could be found. The entire outfit of the Mitchell, South Dakota Mail, presses, type, etc., was taken into the street Monday morning and publicly burned by an orderly and well behaved body of business men. The editor of the paper Robert McBride has for a long time been attacking various public institutions and prominent people, notably late John D.Lawler, president of the First National Bank. At a meeting of the principal holders of California prunes in San Francisco, represent-90 per cent of the stock remaining on hand in the State, it was decided that in view of the decreased supply, which it was estimated barely sufficient for the domestic spring trade, they were warranted in advancing the price of the four sacks in sacks to 4 cents.

In the Modesto Superior Court Judgment Budd of San Joaquin county granted a petition injunction against the collectors at Modesto and Turlook Irrigation district from selling real property delinquent assessment payers of districts. In cases a number of heavy taxpayers coined action to restrain collectors from selling property to collect delinquent assessments. A bond of $5,000 was given in each case. The collectors are restrained from selling any lands whatever for delinquency assessments. The purpose is to restrain collectors from selling property until suits of Bradrock vs. Fallbrook Irigation District and Tregea et al., vs., Modesto Irrigation District are decided by the Supreme Court of the United States, in which court these cases are now pending. Modern district taxes were advertised for sale Monday and Purlock district Tuesday. RESOLUTION OF CENSURATION WASHINGTON, Feb. 25 — Chairman Hittonthe foreign affairs committee, today reported to house the preamble and resolution agreed on by the foreign affairs committee censuring Ambassador Bayard for portions of speeches he delivered at Edinburgh airport. Accompanying the preamble and resolutions is a brief report which sets forth that Mr. Bayard did make the speeches containing features alluded to as objectionable and saying that no action had been taken against government thereon. The preamble contains extracts of speeches which brought forth their resolutions in house and they followed by following resolution recommended by the committee. Resolved That it is sense of humor abovequoted has committed an offense against diplomatic property and an abuse of privileges of his exalted position which should make himthe representativeofwhole countryandnotofanypoliticalparty.Such utterances are wholly innocentandsepulousreservewhichbehimself,sleutharyofstate enjoineduponallagenciesoftheUnitedStates.InonespeechheoffendsaGreatbodyofhiscountrywhobelieveinprotection;intheotheroffencesallofhiscountrymen,believeAmericansarecapableofselfgovernmentThereforeastheimmediaterepresentationoftheAmericanpeoplewecondemnconsumealsutterancesoftheHon.Taybard.

Laughed at before the Berliners heard him. They had stood agast at the idea of a Yankee band-master tickling the tympanum of their ears with Wagner in brass. But he captured the town, and going to Vienna with even this overtowering indorsement, the Austrians were upon the point of breaking for the hills at the thought of it, and if we remember right Von Bulow fainted. But he captured the critical Viennese, and it was proclaimed that as Von Bulow was the greatest of conductors, so was Gilmore the greatest of band masters. Sousa's finale "The band came back" was such as to lead one to be sorrowful at their return, but Pryor excelled all as a slide trombonist, and the swinging marches, of which we had tastes in the encores, were full of their old time thrilling animation. Sousa's is a great band, but there is too much John Philip, too much bowing, too many encores, too much confusion—but truly a wonderful band of wind-jammers nevertheless. It's a delirium of frivolity to peruse the emanations of the Times Eagle Bird. But the Bird ought to change its name to something more in keeping with its jejune and soporific utterances. The Eagle Bird is one of The Herd. It may aim to soar aloft, but it finds its level with the others. The feathers may be those of the proud bird of freedom, but the voice is the old familiar Times bray. To day the naval register will have on its rolls for the first time in its history two officers of the navy who are father and son, and who have reached the highest obtainable rank allowed by law. There is still a third member of this family in the navy, a younger brother, who now holds the rank of lieutenant-commander. Admiral Thomas O. Selfridge holds the sen'or office on the retired list, where he was placed soon after the war. His son, Commodore Selfridge, has been the senior commodore, but to-day he becomes the junior rear-admiral of the service, his promotion giving his younger brother a number and bringing all three of the family closer together in the matter of promotion. Commodore Selfridge is now commanding the European station and has three or four years of active duty still before him. His promotion results from the retirement of Admiral Carpenter, recently deached from the Asiatic station and now at dead. I had to kill Ewing in self defense. I have just eaten my other bootleg. Am sleepy. Good bye. I enclose this note in this flask to preserve it if possible, so that if it is ever found our fate will be known. (Signed) "Joseph OBNEY." Old residents remember these men. It was generally believed that they had been killed in battle. No relatives of the deceased men could be found. The entire outfit of the Mitchell, South Dakota Mail, presses, type, etc., was taken into the street Monday morning and publicly burned by an orderly and well behaved body of business men. The editor of the paper, Robert McBride, has for a long time been attacking various public institutions and prominent people, notably the late John D. Lawler, president of the First National Bank. Several years ago McBride married Mr. Lawler's sister-in-law, the wealthy daughter of Gen. Sturgis, U.S.A. After a few years Mrs. McBride secured a divorce and McBride then began his attacks upon the business and personal character of Lawler. Much indignation was aroused, and Saturday night the citizens met McBride and offered to buy out his plant if he would go elsewhere. He agreed but later decided to withdraw from the bargain. The citizens thereupon appointed one of their number to act as agent for McBride, and then paid the mony agreed upon and took the property out and destroyed it. The committee is now looking for McBride and will suggest that he move elsewhere. A dispatch from Havana reports 15,000 Spanish soldiers missing in Cuba. The fact has been communicated to the Madrid government, and the search of their whereabouts is going on day and night. Official circles are in a state of alarm, for 15,000 men with 15,000 rifles and 50,000 cartridges is an enormous item to the Spanish army. The disappearance of the men will ultimately be traced to either death in battle, the number of which has been concealed to hide Spanish losses, details to positions in various parts of the island, of which no record has been kept, or desertions to join the insurgents. The Spanish records show that entire garrisons have joined their rebels with their arms in every province on the island. An order was issued by General Weyler several days ago for a report of the number, position and condition of the army. The responses to this have increased the confusion and there are reports now from reliable sources that there are 21,000 men instead of 10,000 men to be accounted for. Two robbers entered the City National Bank of Wichita Falls, Tex., Tuesday afternoon and demanded the money of Cashier Dorsey, who resisted them. Shooting began, resulting in the death of Cashier Frank Dorsey and the wounding of Book-keeper P.P.Langford. His wounds are not serious, being slight flesh wounds. The robbers secured only a few hundred dollars in silver. They then mounted their horses and made a run for their lives. By this time many of the citizens had armed themselves and a small battle took place. One of the robbers' horses was shot from under him and the robber was wounded. He mounted behind his partner, and about one mile from town they met a farmer in a buggy. They took his horses and made a break for the hills. Resolved further. That in the opinion House of Representatives, publishes by our diplomatic or consular officers abroad, which display partisan shipments which condemn any political party or policies or organization of citizens in any United States, are in dereliction of duty such officers, impair the usefulness of put servants and diminish the confidence when they should always command at home abroad. A minority report containing the views members of the committee opposed the resolution will also be presented. LATEST FROM CUBA. HAVANA, Feb. 25.—Close to Moro casst at the entrance to this harbor, is a beaten termed Playa Chivo (goats' beach) so caval on account of the many goats which brook in its vicinity. It transpired to-day that one night last week a snarky on duty at castle saw some whitish looking forms praaching stealthily. The soldier challengethe approaching forms, and receiving answer, discharged his rifle at them. shot aroused the garrison of the fort; guard turned out; and a number of soldiers opened fire upon the supposed my; with the result that the latter dispeared. The next morning no examinat made of the beach and several got were found dead about the beach; killed the fire of the soldiers who must have done better shooting than usual when engaging with the insurgents. Considerable ammunition was caused by the affair and she was about to be forgotten when persisting rumors were circulated in this city that number of insurgents, said to be thirty men had been executed near Moro castle during late until the captain-general not only called upon to make an official denial, ordered an investigation. Eventually matter narrowed down to the follow facts: Some soldiers questioned concerning cause of the firing were foolish enough to they believed a number of insurgents been executed on the beach during the night Instead of executing the thirty-five inmigrants who had been confined in Moro cassthe captain general has just liberated against whom there were no serious charges. In addition, Gen. Weyler has most genuously pardoned the mayor of Mansg Senor Cristo, and his brother, who were cently captured by the Spanish after having raised a numerous band of insurgents joined the forces of the enemy. The Spanish authorities have detailed Charles Mickelson, the correspondent New York and San Francisco newspapers The citizens had secured horses the pursuit, the leaders followingarter of a mile of the outlaws. Middle and City National Banks offered a reward of $1000 fordead or alive. The latest reportthe robbers are corralled in at the midst of a pasture ninehours down.
