Under pressure of the excitement raised by
poverty Corner" operations, the Senate has
passed a bill to prevent usury This bill,
which is known as Senator WinslOw's, has
been finally passed by bare legal vote.
This action by the Senate is no indication of
the eventual enactment of the measure. The
Assembly is hostile to the whole principle in

does not materially change existing laws ex-

We spoke, the other day. of the propensity to alco
holic Indulgence said to be extending among the
ladies' of Great Britain. Tie Pal Nal Gassts
quotes from The UmUersaI Spectator, published in
1871, letter from an unhappy husband" complain
ing that his adored wife degraded into the most
infamous habit of drinking. Upon this tho editor
of the old newspaper moralizes sagely and sadly.
"The custom of drinking drains among women be
SAYS, "is destructive of every amiabo quality they
can boast" He speaks of dram-drinking at SOCIAL

There is a subtle and delicate flavor about Cali
fornia crime not to be matched by the felonies of
any other known locality. They taste of the soil.
There is region in Sardinia the bitterness of whose
earth is perceptible in its honey; and delicate
tasters have noticed in wines of Eastern France
flavor of flint in those of Burgundy smell like
that of the sprouts of wild Byzantine, and taste of
faded rose leaves And the soil to transmit its
quality to human actions, as well as its flavor to
honey and wine, or grapes or laurel blossoms. Here
comes record of little criminal drama in five acts,
enacted there bv the borders of the Pacific, in which
one Whitney, having a sum of money III bank and
owing an equal sum, consulted one Dixon as 10 the
best means of avoiding payment. Dixon promptly
counseled that Whitney should withdraw the money
and lodge it secretly in his hands, so that it could
not be attached by legal process This was done;
but when Whitney desired to withdraw the sum
from his ingenious and gueless friend, the latter
denied all knowledge of the transaction. There
upon the despoed Whitney Graves the interpositlon
of the law and makes a clean breast of it, Tho
legal myrmidons overhaul Dixon, and it is at last
discovered that he has made over the cash to an
evil woman named Richardson, with the under
standing that both are TO fy rejoining each other
in a distant city, where they can diiiuse the
booty in peace. Searching and urgent investigation
of this person disclosed the fact that she had just
perfected her arrangements TO throw overheard her
fellow -felon and away with another man q
man of the Hoodlum order, with taking eye
and correct taste in hair oil. Search for this
young man brought to light the amusing fact that
he had spent quite good portion of the money In
purchasing fugitive outfit for another young
woman who rs soon as she had got the articles did
literally and actually fly with still another young
man about whom nothing is known, except that he
seems to be the only in this strange succession
of criminals who has reaped any of the fruits of the
original crime. Considering the extreme complica-
ion and embarrassment of everybody concerned,
and the small likelihood that he will ever get any
of his money back, it is possible that Whitney may
now almost wish that instead of mobilizng his
capital in that secret fashion, he had quietly paid
his debts with it.
singular instance of the extent Of absurdity to
which fixed idea will lead rather sensible man is
seen In the proposition which Friend Encch Hoag
makes TO the Government in relation to the recent
murder Of the United States surveying party by
the CheyeDnes. He thinks il would not be wise to
demand tho surrender OF the murderers that the
chiefs and the majority the tribe are wedsposed
