'J'ln- delivery was accomplished Borne time last night, but the exact honr is unknown. It was not until 7 o'clock this morning, wben the jailer made bis lir-,1 rounds, that the escape of the prisoners was dis covered. The escape was well planned and carried out. By some mysterious means the pria mers bad become &d of keys to the Jail and cells. An iron window was first unlocked and opened in the basement. The kitchen door was then unlocked. A third key turned the bolts in the cell door and the men passed out to freedom and locked the doors after them, leaving the jail in the same condi tion as it was when the jailer left them Last ni^ht.

'HJood-day, sir," was the indignant re joinder. •'it's a tolerable like good day!" WEANING COLTS. Tilings That Should IJo Known to In sure Good Results. Within the next four weeks the major ity oi the colts will be weaned. The man agement of these young things at this critical period will, to a great extent, de termine the future value of tin- animal. The young colt that is taken suddenly off a liquid diet, such as nature furnishes it, and put on a dry grain feed—not ailowed even the privilege ofa pasture—wiil cer tainly he checked in growth. Who has not observed this condition of tilings? a puny, potbellied, long haired colt is sure to be the result of this plan of colt man agement. The feeder of young colts should make the change from the mother's milk as gradual as possible. Tiii.s maybe accomplished safely by turn ing the colt witii the mare once a day until she dries up, and in the meantime give tiie colt a quart of cow's milk fresh every morning and evening. The milk feed should be increased as the mother's .supply decreases and be kept up until the colt is roily brought on to a grain diet. tets anil middlings or a heavy quality of bran is the lest tolid feed for the colt. As to quantity, that must be arranged with the clt and feeder. The careful feeder will very soon ascertain the amount of feed the colt requires. A colt should have all it will eat up clean morning and 'veiling, and no more. A pasture lot fenced securely for the colt is an indis pensable auxiliary. The most successful colt-raisers ar range to feed the mare ground feed and oats for some time previous to weaning, and by this means the colt learns to eat, and is not suddenly thrown on a new life when separated from its mother. It is a good plan to push the colt forward as i"T>idlj-as possible, give it plenty of ex ercise and all the good food it will con sume, and make it a horse at three years oid. of course this three-year-old horse will not be able to ndure the tatigue and constant heavy labor that the aged horse can; but this does not argue against good .are and a rapid, healthy growth of the animal. The stunted three-year-old is at v greater disadvantage when ho comes to performing labor than the well-fed ani mal. The old idea that in order to grow up a good, sound, durable horse it is necessary to starve him half to death dur ing his colthood, turn him out to rough it through winter on hay, with nothing bet tor than an open shed or a hay-stack for shelter, lias exploded lonsr ago with most flt-raisers. Gtood '-are and rapid development is getting the money out of stock. Give your weanlings extra care. Keep a sup ply of pure, fresh water where they can tr to it at will. Provide a salt box in I heir shed or stable where they can help themselves. Look well to the growth of the colt, or the big money will not come to you in this branch of the stock busi ness.—The Sporting World. SAM' 3 SHOCKED SWEETHEART. Sensational Scene Stirred Up by a si>tor's silly Sayings. "Shamo Bam Short," says Sam's sis rcr Siimautha. "Such selfishness seems scandalous. Surely Sally's sorrowful sighing speaks something:." "She's stupidly sentimental," says Sam. '•She's sensitive," says Sam's sister. "Sheer sickly sentiment,'' says Sam. "Still she's Sam's sweetheart," smiles Samantha. Sam scowls.

Complications Arise Rctween tlio United States and tlio Now Government. Special to the Record-Union: Washington, Sept. 28.— For two hours this morning the President was in con sultation with representatives of the State and Navy Departments. While no offi cial information upon the subject can be obtained, there is reason to believe the Administration is confronted with a seri ous aspect of affairs in Chile. Since last Friday cablegrams in cipher have been passing between Washington and Valpa raiso, but the officials refused to make their contents public. It is gathered, however, they relate to affairs in Chile, and that serious complications have arisen between the Junta and the United .States representatives in that country. At present the United States naval force in Chile consists of one vessel, the Baltimore. The San Francisco touched at Callao, Peru, last week, on her way northward. An effort was made by the Navy Department to communicate with her, but she sailed for Acapalco, Mexico, Friday before the cablegram reached her. There is no other modern vessel on the Pacific side that could be dispatched to Chile. It is assumed that Commodore Ram* Bey, Chief of the Navigation Bureau, who was called into consultation with the Cabinet officials, was asked to explain the exact extent of the resources of the Navy Department. Senor Montt, the Chilean Congressional Envoy here, has received a dispatch from Senor Matta, Minister of Foreign Affairs, stating that the peace was not disturbed by a revolt of the military. It is conjectured here that the matters 1 undor consideration at the conference were statements from Minister Egan and Captain Schley of recent oecurenees in Chile, which are also conjectured to ac cord with special dispatches from Val paraiso printed in New York this morn ing. Just what Captain Schley had to communicate to the Navy Department cannot be learned, but it is surmised that it related to the treatment of refugees, or that a bitter anti-American sentiment in Chile, resulting from the seizure of the Itata, has resulted in hostile and un friendly demonstrations toward the offi cers and men of the Baltimore. NOT THRKATENING. Washington, Sept. 28. Secretary Tracy, while declining to make any statement relative to the conference at the White House this morning, said he did not intend to send any more ships to Chile, and that he did not regard the situation there as threatening.

Marianna (Ark.), Sept. 28.—Tbe trouble between the cotton-pickers near here culminated In a riot Friday, result ing in seven] negroes being killed and a number wounded. The riot grew oat of a strike inaugurated, by ;i number of pickers, who demanded an Increase f is cents per hundred pounds. The planters refused the demand and the negroes struck, and their places were immediately Iby others. The strikers prevailed on the working negroes to quit, ami a genera] fight ensued.

Frank, by risers here precipitated a serious state of affairs. Ihe indications tor some time, indeed since the reduction of the price of pick ing cotton has been inaugurated, have won thai there would be trouble between !>laeks and whites. Cotton-picking was suspended in Lee County for several days. Saturday an armed gang of about one hundred mounted men took position along the roadside leading to Frank's! plantation. The agent of Prank, Tom Miller,; met the infuriated negroes and tried to dissuade them from riotous in tentions, but they shot him down with out a moment's warning. They pro ceeded on their way, cursing and aims ing every white they met, and threaten ing all property with destruction. When they reached the plantation known as "Park Place," the ginhouses of Bond and Terrel were set on lire and burned to the ground, and afterward several others in the neighborhood met a similar fate. The demonstration on the part of the Macks has aroused the entire country, and Sheriff Bond with a posse of fifty men are in pursuit of them. It seems that the rioting negroes were baited with a barbecue in a rasebrake, near Hodges 1 place, and (he whites sur rounded them in the cane last night. No casualties are reported, except that two the negroes who effected an escape through the cane and attempted to cross tiie river wero shot and wounded. BIG BLAZE IN PHILADELPHIA.

For fully five years the greater powers of Europe have been looked upon by all the rest of the world as ready to ily to arms and engage in war, which means death, widows, orphans, agony, wounded men, limbs torn from human trunks, homes disrupted, trade deranged, values upset, prosperity checked and na tional treasuries depleted. But they have not gone to war. The wolf cry has, hence, ceased to alarm, and it is with more than doubt that we bear from day to day of rumors of war. The truth is that while a European war is possible at any moment, it is improba ble. Kussia will prefer to wait a more op portune time to advance her ambition. It is no time for her to do battle when a famine threatens her peasantry, when fehe is financially distressed, and when she is in trouble concerning tho Jewish exodus. Tho German Emperor prefers to main tain peace by arming heavily, and only flagrant provocation will bring him to the field of battle with France. Diplo macy will serve him so far as Russia is concerned, for the present. Neither Italy nor^Anstya can, or wish to, plunge into war without the consent of the other powers. Turkey has satisfactorily answered England and tho latter has, by a tri«-k, shown the former how easily she can pain a footing at the gate of the Dardanelles. But Turkey wants war at no time, and under no circumstances. It will appear to us for some time yet that tho situation on the other side of the Atlantic is ominous, and it is true that it is one that may change suddenly into a state of actual conflict. But with a short- Bge of crops in Europe the complacency of iermany, the peace desire of England, the unreadiness f Kussia, the effort to placate made by Turkey, the Indifference of Italy and the preference of Austria for peace even at some sacrifice of spirit, war in Europe is not yet to be written down -ly probable. Certainly Emperor William, when he i bed peaoe so reoenttyand loudly, was not insincere: there is no reason what ever to regard him as speaking from un belief. 'Die visit of the Frern-h lleet to England did not mean disquiet, nor yet the reception of the ileet in Russian waters. They were ordinary visits f ceremony. Prance and Russia would never so openly make manifestations in tended to operate as B menace to the peace "f Europe. We have been told that the Republic is 801 to reopen the battle fields along the Rhine. Eta heavy arming, naval and land, may appear to mean threat and insult to provoke war, but journals having a near view, notably those of Italy, assure us that this is a mistake; that the people of France are ready, but will not take the initiative in war; that the strongest of the French masses is now toward peace, and that this fact consti tutes a £u;ir:uitop that there will be no war—at least none in which France will take part, unless it should happen that the Khedive of Egypt should be drii out and the English seek to establish J t r rule. Turkey would, in that event, protc-t and Prance and Russia would come to her assistance. But it is said that the Turkish demand upon the English to withdraw from Egypt is the result of Russian prompt ing and portends ill for We con feel thai •c *o viewed it at first. But re- I ion convince ■us that the idea was a mistaken one. fox it presupposes an alliance between Turkey and Kussia, and the very suggestion is absurd. Russia could not covenant with Tur key without yielding her ambition to enthrone the Car at Constantinople. Turkey's demand, therefore, was inde pendent, and, in truth, has been made in the fall ol every year sinco Gordon fell at Khartoum. IT as tho Balkan States are con here is nothing on ihe surface to md of war being entertained by their people, or that they anticipate any early change in the territorial divis ions of that portion of Europe.

The vessels were seized, their crews taken prisoners and the sealskins libeled as prizes. Very differ ently does our Government, as a rule, act in such matters. It makes a showing of commanding the poachers to cease their illicit business, and if they refuse to obey they are pursued, but mostl3 r es cape. If they are, however, captured a marine is put on board as a prize crew, with whom the seal poacher proceeds to run oil', and in a week or so the defiant skipper is taking seals again. True, this last summer something more of vigor has been manifest by our cutters, but comparable with the Russian, our rev enue marino is slow and ineffective in Behring Sea. It is noteworthy that Eng land has not a word of protest to make against the action of the Russian officials. It is only in American Behring waters that the English claim the right to put an end to seal fishing by their open sea takes. If they have any legal right to take seal in open waters east of the fanci ful line drawn from the straits to near Copper Island, why have they not equally as good a right to take seals west of that line? The truth is, that on one side is a power which brooks no intermeddling, while on the other a nation is represented that lacks the essential vigor character istic of the I'ussian in defense of his ma rine territory. Miraculous cures of all manner of disease are said to be effected by an 8-year-old Canadian girl. She simply passes her hand over the person, at the same time holding a goose feather be tween her linger and thumb. It is imagi nation that gives the patients the im pression that they are healed. Under the faith they have in the mysterious powers of the child, they pot forth exertions to which they were not equal before, and hence tho lame walk and the bed-ridden rise up. There is great excitement throughout Canada over the powers of this child, and the local press vouch for tho truth of the statements that lar°;e numbers of people who visit her ill come away cured, or declaring that they are healed. There have been many similar crazes, and other children as well adults have claimed to exercise equally as mi raculous an influence, and tens of thou sands have certified that they have been cured by these "miraculously endowed agents." It is notable, however, that these mysterious healers seldom last. A few months at tho utmost puts them out of memory and the world hears no more of them. Tn B Legislature of Tennessee has failed to pass an Act making the taking of fruit or vegetables without tho consent of the owner a misdemeanor. It must have shaken the sentimental part of the aver age Tennessean to the core to have the Legislature refuse to reduce the crime of stealing into and stealing out ot a neigh bor's watermelon patch with a load of melons as booty. It was a cruel Legis lature, surely, that would insist upon denominating as larceny what In some parta is only a bit of pleasantry in the dark of the moon.

Frki: coinage without international co-operation would be ruin to the dollar value of a coin stamped as one dollar, ex cept it were made of gold. That is to say, without the co-operation of all other Towers in the financial world, the free coinage Of silver would depreciate the silver dollar, because the measure of its true value must be the gold dollar. When such depreciation sets in, it will be the custom to make silver payments because it is legal tender, and having least true value, it will be most used. The result will be that whoever has gold will hoard it, whoever has not will strive to get it. Contracts for gold payment will be in order, and finally gold will take wings for foreign parts, as it always has under similar conditions. Contraction of the volume of the currency would follow, we would cut ourselves off from close re lation with foreign markets, hard times would set in, and obligations for pay ment J2i a non-depreciated currency bo discharged In the poorer money, to the ruin of multitudes.

This oonclmion la sound, but we dislike tho Bjtfgma Mr. Warner attaches to civilization. Idleness is not an attri bute of civilization, but of departure from it. When overgrown wealth enables one to be supremely idle, ho is very nearly supremely miserable. Certainly idleness and backward movement are synony mous, precisely as industry, an attribute of civilization, by its absence indicates retrogression.

LOWERING THE TAXES. The Supervisors Make the Levy For the Present Fiscal Year. A Deduction of Twenty Cents on tho Hundred, as Comi>ared With Last Year. The Board of Supervisors held a special session at the Hall of Records yesterday for the purpose of fixing the tax levy of tho county for the present fiscal year. Before the members entered into a dis cussion of the .subject, Auditor F. T. Johnson submitted his annual report, containing a detailed statement of the comity's finances and indebtedness, to gether with estimates of what will be needed. In his report Mr. Johnson says: In accordance with the provisions of Section 52 of the County Government Act of 1883, 1 submit herewith my annual Statement, showing the condition of the county's finances, its indebtedness, both funded and floating, and the rate of interest borne by the same, also the class and description of the bonds outstanding. a concise description of all property owned by the ounty, with an approxi mate estimate of tho value thereof, and the amount of ASH IN TITF.

Not three weeks ago we were promised that the abomination of rubbish tires should bo put au end to.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY I Good Agricultural Land for $1O to $2O per Acre. The Pacific Improvement Company has re oontly purchased twelve thousand SfltH ol land in the heart of Tehama County, for the purpose of promoting subdivision and settle- I ment. This land embraces lands from tirst class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to land of fair average quality, and is offered at from §10 to $20 per acre, in subdivisions ol 40, 80, 120, 160 and 320 acres. The terms upon which then lands are offered are especially attractive. They will be sold in subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay mrnt of interest only tor three years, at which time the purchaser can begin the payment ot principal by paying the first of five equal an nual installments. Thus no part of the prin cipal is to be paid for three years, and then the purchaser Is to have live years in which to pay rive equal annual installments, with in t°rest at the rate of 7 per cent, per annum, making payments extending over a period of •isjht years. Intending purchasers are as- Bared that this is an opportunity to purchase land of fair average, quality at §10 per acre, and good agricultural land at $20 an acre, with other grades of land at prices to corre spond between these figures. The assertion Is frequently made that good lands, suitable for general farming, and es pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be had in California for le^s than from $60 to $100 au acre. An examination of the land subject of this advertisement will prove to I home-seekers that this is an opportunity for I the purchase of good agricultural" land at $20 an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair i agricultural land at $10 an acre, on terms of I payment which should make the disposition j of these lands to actual settlers a result easy of accomplishment. The primary object of the purchase of this body of land was the breaking up of a large holding for the purpose of promoting its set tlement in smaller quantities and Its devotion to diligent husbandry.

Abbott appeared before the Board of City Trustees at its meeting yesterday morning and stated that he and David Lubin had beon appointed a sub-commit tee from the Governor's Mansion Finance Committee to ask the board to subscribe $1 ,000 to raising the necessary amount asked for as a cash guarantee for tho pur chase of the Stetlens residence. He stated that if the next Legislature pur chased the residence tho money sub scribed would all be returned, and if it did not the subscribers would lose the amount they might put in. In all prob ability, however, the necessary money would be appropriated as soon as the next Legislature convened. The members of the board desired time to- think over the proposition, and re solved not to take action until the after noon session. UIJAVEL FOR E STRKET. A communication was received from Elwood Bruner, attorney for some prop erty-owners oil E street, which is at present being graded, stating that his clients desired the work to cease until the board determined definitely the bound ary lines of the street.

A petition was received from property- Ownera on Seventh .street, from Vto 11, asking that Folsom p ravel be used in Im proving tin; street. It was referred to the .Street lommissioner. The bids for improving this street were about to be opened when James Touhey asked that the opening be delayed for one week, lie said ho had not bid on Folaozn gravel, and desired to withdraw his bid and make oat a new one if it was decided that Folsom gravel should bo used. Trustee Mcl.aughlin said the board did not know whether or not the petition contained the names of a majority of the property-owners, and he thought it made ao difference. The bids were opened and the contract was awarded to 11. C. Ewing. Bids for grading X street, from Sixth to Twentieth, were opened, and B. Labs was found to be the lowest bidder. The awarding of the contract was, however, laid over. A recess was taken till 1:30 p. m. Afternoon Session. At the afternoon session Elwood Bruner informed the board that property owrierfl on E street, east of Thirteenth, whom he represented, desired that no contract be let for the improvement of that street until the lines thereof shall lie permanently Bottled, owing to the differ ence in the width of the sidewalks, lie Baid they did not want to go on and im prove the street and later n find that they had to change their lines.

The foregoing was the amount of the wife's costs incurred in the trial of the cause, as settled bj- the court. The Supreme Court says that the law provides that while an action for divorce is pending the court may, in its discre tion, require the husband to pay as ali mony any money necessary to enable the wife to support herself or her children, or to prosecute or defend the action. "As to the granting of alimony pendente fife, that is a matter resting in the sound discretion of the court," says the Supreme Court, "and this record discloses nothing to justify us in disturbing that discretion as exercised by the trial court in this cause. The fact that the court ordered tho clerk to retain in his possession, until further order, the amount ordered to be paid by plaintiff for witness lees, afford no grounds of complaint by plaintiff, for he is not injured by that portion of the order." The orders aro affirmed. EXTRA LICENSE MONEY. The Bondholders' Agreement to Let It be Used for a New Pump. Trustee MeLaughlin presented the fol lowing communication at yesterday's session of the city board: "We, the undersigned, owners and holders of bonds issued by the City and County of Sacramento for city indebted ness (under and by virtue of the Act of the Legislature of the State of Califor nia, which Act was approved April 24, 1858), hereby consent that the Board of Trustees of the City of Sacramento may use all revenue that may be received in the City Treasury by reason of the raise in the pri of liquor licenses from |15 per quartet to $45 (for the purpose of re pairing or rebuilding tho Water Works of the city) for the term of one year from this date. This consent is given by the undersigned upon the express condition that the Board of Trustees of the city does not reduce the present rates charged for the use of water, and not otherwise." The agreement is signed by Samuel Davis, Daniel Meyer, Henry Molineux, George E. Bates and Ferdinand Keis, by M. Lowis, trustee. Trustee Conklin moved that the docu ment be received, and that the Mayor and Street Commissioner lie instructed to confer with the members of the Bonded l>i !jt Commission and endeavor to secure their consent to the proposed action. The readers of the Recobd-Un ton were informed a few days ago, on the authority of Bond Commissioner Beatty, that the Commissioners would not consent to the use of the money lor the purchase of a now pump.

It Breaks Out Afresh in the Trustees' Meeting. The Board Declines to Take any Fur ther Action in v the Matter— What Comes Next* C. H. Oatman, attorney for the Street Improvement Company, read a commu nication to the City Trustees yesterday, signed by the stockholders of the com pany, reviewing the entire actiou of the board in ordering Sixteenth street graded and graveled, and arguing the matter as to whether or not it was in the power of the board to order Folsom gravel when the contract did not call for any particu lar kind. Mr. Oalman stated that the attitude of the board toward his company was some what discouraging to the latter. He did not think the board could consistently oppose his company, for it was a well known fact that it haa done great good in the City of Sacramento, and improved streets at a loss to itself. S. 8. Holl said he desired to say a few words in behalf of the relations that ex isted between the board and the Street Improvement Company. The company desired to deal fairly and squarely,and always did its business with said the resolution of the board was nothing more or less than a change in the specifications, which every body would admit was Improper after the contractors had submitted their bids. The company was going to fulfill its contract to ihe letter, and that contract did not call for Folsom gravel. He did not wish any difficulties to arise hereafter, and de sired the good will of the board while the company was carrying out its contract. He denied the right of the board to change the specifications of the contract. If it could send his company eighteen miles to Folsom.it could just as easily make the company go to Shasta or the northern boundary of the State for grave!. All he asked of the board was that it rescind the resolution ordering Folsom gravel, and then all difficulties would be overcome. Trustee Conkling said he felt that the matter was entirely in the hands of the Street Commissioner, and if that official desired to rescind the resolution he would vote with him, but if not he would not antagonize him. The Mayor was sorry that dissensions had sprung up between the board and the Improvement Company. The hitter or ganization was composed of some of the best citizens of Sacramento, and had done a great deal ol good. The discussion occupied over an hour and a half of the time of the board, and was then dropped until afternoon. Later in the day the Trustees left their seats and held a private caucus in one corner of the room. On resuming their seats they took up the Sixteenth-street matter again, but decided that there was nothing further for the board to about it, the Improvement Company having been notified that Folsom gravel must be used. C. A. Luhrs, President of the company, said to a RkcorD-Ukion reporter, after the board had adjourned, that the com pany would go ahead with its work, and would use Sacramento gravel, as that, he said, was what they had contracted to use. WRONG TREATMENT. llow Captain Hen Harris Was Doc tored During the Fair. The best thing wo have heard lately, says the Breeder and Sporisma/t^ is told on Captain lien Harris. He got dumped out behind his favorite horse, Harry Mac, at Sacramento last week, and was de dared out of the list of drivers. They took him up to his hotel and covered him with raw oysters, till the oysters ran out and "Saddle Rocks" advanced to 81 50 per dozen. The nursery brigade then fell back on sliced cucumbers with which they built a complete pavement over him, till he looked like a "Keno" card with 4-11-44 on the top row. Some fellow went into the room, and, beholding the sylph like Harris lying under this accumulation of bivalves and vegetables, asked: "Ben, how are you, old boy?"' "Getting along fine," returned the ex commander of the Mayflower. "I'd have been out all right yesterday if it hadn't been for these doctors. They don't adopt the proper pathology in my case." "I don't understand you," says his friend. •'Well, I'll make it plain to you. They have starved me and tilled me full of medicine; and then they have covered me from head to foot with raw oysters and sliced cucumbers. Now, if they had only given me the oysters and cucumbers in side of me, and given me the medicine externally, I'd havo been out behind old Blucher and driving for every heat." Iteedy's Sunday Ride.

Barker —CHllatsi themselves with William McKay, all Of Oft* land, with a view of -vnroliini; out a reliable looation tn which to engage in the rr occupation of friiigrowing. After many localities, they decided on the Valley, Yolo County, and tho Rhodes tract at Tanered. Negotiations were opened with the C*p*J alley [and Oompaoy,orraing tv tract m qiestion. With W. H. m, iK the General Agent of that company, they arranged (brtha purchase of about 880 aoreeof toMhil) land This being more than they had thought of taking for tluir own use, they ipol a number of friends about it. with the reeoH that the tract waa divided among tho follow tog people: B. L. Htckok, 40 acres; W. T. Parnrtt, 20 acres; N. T. Greathead, 20 acreaj Mrs. L. Great head, 20 acres; v. BfdCay, M acres; N. v. Barter, 20 acrea; it. a. Barker, 20 acres; J. I*. Brownloe, 20 acres; K. H. Bat> lett, io acres; Joseph Barker, 10 aeree? a. V. Kelly io acres, and Frederick Kelly,io aerati Bo far this had been merely a private vea> ture of the gentlemen above named, bat la talking up the question of dividing the land already purchased, it was bond thai M Btany more would like to join it than the ana of fie purchase would admit of, that, it was su*. gested on all hands, "Why not gel mum more land and divide it up in the same way."' Then followed the idea of a stock company to take hold of a larger tract and arrange (br the cultivation of the whole oi It, after subdividing ttaeeordittgto the requirements of the BUD- Gcribcrs. A provisional board was form.-d. a prospectus Issued, and finally, on the 6th of June, 1890, the Western Co-operative Col onization and Improvement Company was duly registered and proceeded to business, with the following officers: President. Will iam McKay; Vice-I'resld.nt. ftf. I\ Brown; Directors-H. C. Ellis, Charle O f the town-site, about which there is a pleasant Innovation which might with profit be follow** by more ambitious places. A small park of «ome three acres has be»n laid out right In the center of the town. Tbia park it in proposed to bcuuii'y by planting in it from time to time as many of the beauties and curiositlc- of tree and shrub life as may be obtained by dili-cnt search and a wise expenditure of money. It is not expected that Tancred will ever be a large and busy city, but it is thought thut it can be made a very pleasant littlo place to dwell In. A petition has been circulated recently and very largely signed, asking the county to ac cept Island avenue, on the colony truct, as a county road, and to build a bridge across Cache Creek at this point, in order to give the settlers on the east side of the creek access to fancred Station. The Tancred colonists ur quite willing to give tho necessary right of way, and are very desirous of having a bridge there, as the colony lands extend along both Bides of the stream. It is thought that it would be a very wise expenditure ot public money to grant them this very necessary im provement, as the operations ot such om panies are oi widespread benefit to the whole county and State. The attractions and com< forts of the cities are well known, but to those who arc willing to settle on the Sand and show that the country also affords attractions and comforts and ways of making money pleas antly, every induccrr.ent should he hold forth, The following is a list of the principal mem bers of the Tancred Colony, with the number of acres owned by each, and a fact worthy of mention is that in each contract or deed is sued by the Colony Company there Is a pro vision that no intoxicating liquor shall ever be manufactured or sold on the land. The ap parent success o'the enterprise shows that the ideas and plans of the colony, as set forth in the prospectus sumo time ago, are not Im practicable: C. T. Hull, Berkeley, 5 acres; W. P.

SCOTTISH RITE MASONS. An Endonvor to bo Mjulo to Consoli date the Two I tranches. Washington, Sept. 28.—Information received here indicates that throughout the country, in what is known as the Scottish Kite of Free Masonry, a branch especially strong and wealthy on the Pacific Coast, there is an agitation in favor of a consolidation of the Supreme Councils of the Northern and Southern jurisdictions of the governing bodies for the United States. The Northern organi zation has a more liberal constitution than the Southern, and elects its officers periodically, whereas in tho Southern Supreme Council the Officers hold their places for life. The late General Albert Pike, probably the most distinguished Mason of his day, was Grand Commander of the Southern body, and his successor is to be chosen at the biennial meeting of the organization next year. So long as he lived, because of his great ability, there was a general acquiescence in his leadership, but now that he has passed away the desire is strong among tiie rank and file for a consolidation with the Northern body, in order to enjoy the ben efits of a more liberal constitution and more active participation in the govern ment of the order. However, should the distinct and separate organizations be continued, and toe officers of the South ern Supreme Council continue to be chosen for life, there is a strong proba bility that Thomas H. Caswell of Califor nia will be General Pike's successor. The Southern jurisdiction embraces all the States and Territories south of the Ohio River and west of the Mississippi. Sen ator Teller of Colorado is one of the ollicers. ILLEGAL RETENTION. Decision Concerning tho Sending to Schools of Indian Children. Washington, Sept. 28. —The Commis sioner of Indian Affairs has received a copy of the recent opinion of Judge Green of the District Court of the Terri tory of Oklahoma directing the restora tion to his parents of an Indian boj* placed in the Government Indian school at Chilocco by officials. Judge Green held that as the Indian Ofiice had not issued, as required by the Act, rules and regulations to compel the attendance of Indian children at schools provided for them, the retention of the boy contrary to the will of his parents was illegal. The effect of tiiis decision is regarded by the Commissioner of Indian Allairs as likely to prove prejudicial to the schools, and it is his' intention to carry the case to a higher court. The Judge, in his opinion, took the ground that the right of a parent to the custody of his children belonged to the Indians as well as to the white men. The Americans score a Victory* Philadelphia, Sept. 28. The cricket match between Lord Hawkc's eleven and a team made up of cracks lrom various first-class Philadelphia teams, which be gan on Friday last, ended to-day with a victory for Philadelphia. The English men were unfortunate at but to-day, although they kept their fielding up to the previous high standard. The ex citement as the game neared the end was intense, and as George Patterson, the young American champion, scored the winning run, the crowd broke over the field and manifested delight in various ways. A return match will be played. Fast Overland Trip. Nkw Yoiik, sept. 28.— At 10: ">G this morning the private coach Grassmere, containing .John W.

How Prospective Bloodshed "Was For tuinitcly Averted. It was election day in the town, muVl noticed that almost every white man was armed. There was no appearance of any trouble with the negroes, and I finally asked a man who was carrying a big re volver under his coat-tails what was ap prehended. "Can't ailus tell jist how this yere will turn out," ho replied. "I've dun bin •low n or. the Greens ftur to? y'ars, and they've dun bin down on us jist the Bame. Thar's the Parkers, they ar' dim down on the Jacksons. Thar's the Low rys, they ar' dun down on the Browns. Thar's the Perkinses; they ar'dun down on the Weltons. Can't tell when some body will begin to shute, you know." "You don't mean there is danger of a regular fusillade right here in the street, do you?" "Can't tell. I've seed it afore. Got a bullet in that hand rijjht about yere two y'ars a-jo. It all depends, I reckon." "What does it depend on "'Bout as much on nay boy Sam as anything. Sanfs got two guns and is powernii ncklees. 1 wanted him to stay home, but he wouldn't." ''And what will Sam do?" "Can*t teLL If somebody will take Sam over to the saloon and iill him up so he can't shout thar won't lie any row yere to-day. If tiny don't, and Sam should take it into his head to jump out on the squar' and begin to boiler, nobody can be held in. Sam is powerful on the holler. Never heard him, did ye?" "No." "Wall, he fust Haps his arms and crows like a rooster, and you kin hear that crow a mile away. Then he a-nounces that he was b'on on the top uf the Rooky Moun tains, and is used to grizzly bars, chain lightnin', cyclones, and all that.
