The Girl eordon,s Character.

- N
The girl Katie Gordon is certainly
about the most d~epraved little wretch
who has ever been before our Courts.
The contradictory evidence given on
the preliminary, examinations for ipcest
aud her subsequent confessions" to
reporters OF the Press stamp her as
utterly debased, or else as she herself
has stated. she has no idea whatever
of the nature Of an oath. She Is y t1t
subject for a reform institution, though
It Is probable that her Intelligence Is
of an order too low ever to be made
capable Of better things than those
upon which l. has hitherto exercised
itself. Mr.. Gordon says that as soon
rs the trials have been brought to a
close, he will have her sent to some re-
form school. In the meantime he
treats her with a f%orbearance and a
non-assumption of indignation which
are consistent with the theory OF his
Innocence. He says that his other
children are truthful, but that Katie
has never been (. He had a sister
whose disposition was similar In some
respects to hers. On m occasion this
sister was punished during three days
by q teacher who sought thus to make
her confess to some wrong Of which
she was known to DO guilty. The case
Is "termed q mystery by many. 10
those who have seen and heard Gordon
and Katie and Robinson there can be
very little doubt as to the direction In
which the truth lles.-Oakland Tran

was fitted out q few weeks ago to test
tho sands at Readings Rocks thirty
five miles from Trinidad, which are
be lieved to be full Of gold, returned
from the trip yesterday, says the San
Francisco Chronicle Of Saturday not
having discovered "color." The Co
guile expedition was In charge OF
Colonel Taylor OF New York, and
was fitted out by several gentlemen
At a cost of 80. 900 for a thorough eX-
animation Of the locality. The vessel
was provided with a pump for raising
the sands and the usual appliances for
washing. The pump worked well and
quite a quantity OF sand was raised,
but the "color" refused TO show Itself.
After prospecting for five miles along
the beach It was decided to return To
the city, though the enterprise Is not
vet abandoned. The only sand secur-
ed was the gray surface sand, aud the
friends Of the undertaking assert that
no gold was eve found In sand Of that
character, but In the black sand which
lies underneath. A company IL now
on the way from New, York with a
centrifugal pump Of great power aud
with this 1t Is claimed that-thesc black
sands can be reached. !
When Captain Taylor was up be,
fore lie got some Of the black sand and
1t assayed enormously high, but now
the tide has washed the gray sand over
1t and 1t is accessible with the appli-
ances on board the Coquille. The ex'
petition Will go there again rs soon as
| the New Workers arrive.
