DEATH OF AN EccKNFRIc MAN.-An ex-
ceedngy eccentric man has just died at Hines-
burg, Vt in The person Of Augustus Melvin,
aged II. He had his grave dug twenty years
ago, and stoned up and filed with earth that
1t might be In perfect condition whenever need
ed. Last fall he had the earth dug OH. of it,
saying he expected to be laid there before
winter was over, His coffin was In readiness
seven years ago, and so arranged that he could
lie on his side with his knees drawn up, as he
said he slept In this condition in life and wan
ted to sleep so in death. All his plans for the
funeral were made In advance, and among the
rest he selected four colored boys who had
worked for him more or less, as had their faith
ers before them, as pall-bearers. They were
to carry the body TO the grave, which was on
his own farm, lower 1t to Its last resting place
ill the grave with earth, and then walk back to
the house, where they were to fnd each letter,
sealed and directed to them, in which was the
money TO pay for the last service which he had
required Of them. His friends took great care
to carry out his peculiar wishes.

SINGULAR DISCOVERY OF A MURDERER.-
The murderer of Mr.. johnson of Coldwater,
Mass, has been discovered In singular imam
ner by DIR. Richie, who lives at Chyatra, about
thirteen miles from Coldwater. The doctor
was returning home after season of solid en-
loyment with his friends, and he jocularly ac-
cused every man he met as being the one who
had committed the murder. Finally he met a
stranger, whom he addressed IN the same man
ner: "Yes-you-you are the man who muir
dered johnson at Coldwater." A look Of
guilt overspread the mans face, and simultan-
eously he ran his hand In his bosom as If to
draw weapon. DIR. Richie, observing the
movement collared him with his left hand,
and with his sbt drew a dirk from his pocket,
and hold IL threateningly above him, told hun
II he attempted to draw a weapon he would
plunge that knife to lis heart In a second
He then commanded the man to withdraw his
hand from his bosom, which command was
speedily obeyed, when, instead of weapon the
man drew out the sum Of 81 > so which dropped
on the ground a. their feet. Meanwhile crowd
had gathered around the Doctor and his prlso-
ner,and the evidence Of the mans guilt was by
this time so plain that he was put under arrest
and securely TIED. The money was Identified by
the man who paid 1t to johnson, and the stran.
ger, who gave the name of Caldwell, subse.
quently confessed his guilt, giving as his rsa-
sen a strong desire to possess the murdered
mans money.

Los Niet0s Park.

Three-fourths of mile north of the
proposed city Of Nietos, is one of the
most desirable localities for pleasure
resort, to be found anywhere in easy
access of the city of Los Angeles. Ma
ture has done everything required on
her part. The land is as level as a
floor, and forty or fifty acres is studied
with fine timber, just far enough apart
to let in the warm rays of the sun,
which keeps the grass green and grow
ing the entire year. All that this spot
requires to make it the Long Branch
of southern California, is for some
person with means, and backed up
by spirit of enterprise, to take hold
OF the project. the land is owned by
the Santa Gertrudes Land Association.
The company has large tract of land,
around, and embracing this desirable
location. If they would expend few
thousand dollars in improving this
park, it would not only pay them well
for the outlay, in advancing the value
of the land improved, but largely en-
hance the value of the surrounding
lands. 1t Is situated in the center of a
fine and luXuriant valley, whose lands
in point of richness, cannot be surpass-
ed, and in the most healthful climate
on the coast of California. Situated
just far enough from the ocean to make
the temperature even and pleasant,
the mercury seldom rising above 50
degrees, or falling below 80. Where
all the semi-tropical fruits can be
raised in profusion. Where tomatoes,
green peas, and other vegetables,
grow at any season of the year. With
level roads, for ten or twelve miles in
any direction. Which offers superior
inducements to visitors in feeble
health, as well as those in search of
pleasure. OBSERVER.

Clair were considerably damaged.
On the Philadelphia and the Reading
railroad, several land slides have oc-
Cured. At Girardsville, two children
were drowned by the submerging of
Il vehicle in which they were driving
home with their parents.
Boston, Oct. 2l.-Thc Board of Di-
rectors of all the mills at Fall River
have appointed committees to confer
with the Representatives of corpora
tions in other places, with regard to
the practical suspension Of work du-
ring the present dull season. FISH
back, puddle and rail mills have sus-
pended, and 600 hands are thrown
out of employment.
CONCORD, N. H., Oct. 2l.-The Mer-
rimac river is very high and rising.
The country round and about Ply

are reported on Lake Huron. There
are rumors of loss of life, but as yet
nothing definite is learned. A large

ter. There is a very heavy sea on
Lake Michigan, but no important dis
asters are reported. #
MEMPHIS, Oct. 21.-The report to

ber of deaths have occurred from yell
low fever.

CHICAGO,

CHICAGO, Oct. 2l.-An Inter Ocean s
Washington dispatch says: A Bill has
been prepared by a Minnesota gentle
man for presentation early in the
coming session, providing for the
United States guaranteeing interest
on the bonds Of the Northern Pacific
railroad. 1t is claimed by them that
they have secured the support Of near
ly the entire Minnesota and WiscOn-
sin delegates in Congress. A draft of
this bill was prepared before the failure
of Jay Cook & Co., and as long ago as
July last. Parties engaged in the
matter have spent the greater part of
the summer in perfecting their plans
for pushing it through Congress.
The Department of Justice has to-
day sent definite instructions to sew
eral Judicial Districts where expendi-
lures are regarded as unnecessary, to
reduce them. In several cities junior
assistant attorneys are to be dis
charged. Those in Boston and Gin
cinnati, have already been designated
as those to be dropped.

The City and the Gas.

If ever proof We're wanted of the dis
graceful results Of the squabble be-
tween the City Fathers and the gas
company, that proof was obtainable
last evening, between the hours of 8
and 8. At the risk of incurring the
displeasure of both corporations, BUT
in defense of the interests of the citi-
zens, the HERALD protests against this
Egyptian plague of darkness continu-
ing any longer. If necessary, meet
ing should be called, and the gas COM
pany forced to compromise with the
city, or the city with the gas company.
No mountain-side in thunderstorm
was ever darker than was this city last
night. 1t was dangerous to life and
limb. No one could walk block with
out feeling his way, and the crossings
were especially dangerous OH account
Of the hacks going to or from Madame
Bishops concert. For what do citi-
zent pay taxes? Why should they suf-
fer from this dispute? Unless ener-
getic action is taken in this matter,
the City Fathers will continue to pun
ish the gas company, and the gas COM
pany will go on spiting not the corpo-
ration, but the inhabitants. The HER
AID has already twice called attention
to this subject, and it invites the CO.
operation of all who are interested in
the welfare of Los Angeles. While
eastern people are fiOcking in every
week to find a permanent or tempo
rary home, their report of the dark
ness of the city can neither be condu-
Give to the interests of the city, nor to
the credit Of Los Angeles.

Boarding..

All through town, the demand is for
board. Yesterday there were several
persons in the HERALD office looking
UP information in regard to boarding
for themselves or others. OF course no
difficulty is experienced in obtaining
day board, but to obtain board and
lodging under one roof is simply inn
possible. Several parties, after can
vassing the entire city and hunting
with no success, have been obliged to
leave the city; Others have been COM
PEELED to write to friends not to come,
as no place could be found for them.
Why will not some man or men of
means put up boarding-houses to ac-
cOmmodate the demand? or why will
they not build and furnish houses for
rental? Every day this is delayed, the
interests of the town suffer.

You have often seen an old hen
wi tn one diminutive chicken clucking
and making more noise than if
she were the parent of a brood Of
dozen. So with San Diego she has
one little bantling in her harbor, fine,
to be sure, as far as it goes but very
small; she has no back country that
will produce; she has to bore the
ground as well as her neighbOrs for
the water which is needed for her
scanty 5000 population; she imports
all she consumes; yet one might be
led to the conclusion from her much
in-a-little newspapers, that she was
mighty city, controlling the commerce
Of the world. How terribly deceptive
are appearances,

Our Success.

With unconcealed pleasure the HER
AID announces that already it issues
each day to regular, paying subscri-
bers, greater number of copies than
any other newspaper published in Los
Angeles; and that its subscription list
is increasing at the rate of about 100
per week. Before the first month of
it's publication shall end, the present
indications are that it will have more
legitimate paying subscribers than
both our contemporaries combined.
This proves that the citizens of Los
Angeles are willing to support enter
prise, and that when money is freely
expended in their behalf, they are
willing to bear their proportion of the
expense.
On the first of November the HER
AID will be on paying basis; that is,
its receipts will fully meet its outgoes,
giving, of course, no return for the
money invested or the labor Of the
proprietors. This is an event rarely
happening in newspaper annals in the
second month of existence. Thus is
set at rest all doubts Of the financial
success of the enterprise, and renders
it a fixed fact. But the people of Los
Angeles ought not to expect money to
be invested in their behalf without a
return interest, nor labor without COM
pensation. Let them assist, and the
HERALD will accomplish for them a
hundred-fold return for their invest
ment

held an inquest this morning upon the
body of G. II. Rosenbaum. The evil
dence given did not differ materially
from the reports sent to the HERALD
last evening. a verdict was rendered
that death was caused by pistol shot
from Frank Callahan. Sheriff Orton,
of this county, his deputies and others,
were out last night in search of the
murderer. About o'clock this even
ing dispatch was received from Sole
dad, Monterey county, that a man an
swering the description of Callahan
was there. The Sheriff telegraphed
to have him detained, and has just
started for that place to see if the par
ty there is the man wanted. Neither
of the parties to this tragedy have
been living here long.

teriilg RailrOnd Prospects.


SAN DIEGO, Oct. q.
To-day's Union, in an editorial ON
the situation, says: 1--WE congratulate
citizens upon the prospect OF speedy
termination of the condemnation suit
pending in the District Court, whereby
the Texas and Pacific Railway Com
pany secure the right of way through
the city along their chosen route. Yes
terday was the time appointed for the
argument of the several demurrers
which had been filed. Most of them
were withdrawn without argument,
and the Others overruled and ten days
for answer given. The Judge will con-
vene Court in November to take ac-
ton as to nonresident parties who are
brought in by publication, and who
have longer time to answer. The
prospect now is that the whole ques-
ton will be settled within two weeks.
The railway company will then know
that their route cannot be disturbed,
and they may be expected to begin
Immediately the laying of the track"
The San Bernardino argus speaks of
letters received, stating that an agent
Of the Southern Pacific Co. would short
ly visit the place to ascertain what aid
would be eXtendedby the citizens in
the extension of the road from Los
Angeles to that point. 1t is hinted if
a subsidy is forthcoming, the road will
be built by the way of Mud Springs,
and come in north of the town; and
that if no aid is granted, the line will
be run by way of FL Monte, Rubot-
TOMS and Aqua Mansa.
