The Brain.

This organ has been studied with
three objects: the descriptive anatomy
of its parts, the comparison between
the brain of man and apes, the illustra-
ton of function. After pretty careful
study Of specimens and consultation of
all works in which brains are accurately
delineated, we feel justified in asserting
that we cannot as yet characterize the
fissural pattern of any mammalian
order, family, genus. or even species,
without the risk that the next specimen
will invalidate our conclusion; that our
studies in this direction should be
based upon the careful comparison of
accurate drawings of a much larger
number of specimens than now exist in
any museum; that nearly allied forms
OF carnivora should be compared, and
that the most satisfactory results are
obtainable from large series of total
and young brains of the same species,
and if possible, family and sex, in order
to estimate the minor differences.

A gambler, who makes the Maine
railroads dangerous for fools, caught a
Tartar the other day. The stranger
found those four kings in his euc6re
hand, and was quite eager to bet. OF
course the professor had the four aces.
The two men kept raising until the
gambler had his last dollar on the
board. Then the "green one" arose
and slapped down pocketbook con-
tanning nine hundred dollars. The pro-
fessor went through the train showing
his hand, and endeavoring to borrow so
as to get "sight" for his money. No
one would lend him, and after q time
the stranger raked in the two hundred
dollars on the board, smiled benevo-
lently, and got off at the next station.

Pimples, EruptiOns, Rough Skin.

The system being put under the influence of
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for a
few weeks, the skin becomes smooth, clear,
soft, and yelvety, and being Illuminated with
the glow of perfect health from within, true
beauty stands forth in all its glory. Nothing
ever presented to the public as a beautifier of
the complexion ever gave such satisfaction for
this purpose as this Discovery. The effects Of
all medicines which operate upon the system
through the medium of the blood are neces-
sarily somewhat slow, no matter how good the
remedy employed. While one to three bottles
clear the skin of pimples, blotches, eruptions,
yellow spots, comedones, or grubs," dozen
may possibly be required to cure some cases
whore the system is rotten with scrofulous or
virulent blood poisons. The cure of all these
diseases, however, from the common pimple to
the worst scrofula is, with the use Of this most
potent agent, only matter OF time. Sold by
all Druggists.

At The Mission.

The party of gentlemen which left
the city last Saturday morning for the
"Oil Regions" report having had
very pleasant trip. Mr.. Kraszynski
the accommodating landlord of the
Lyons Station Hotel, the headquar-
tiers of the party, did his utmost to
make it pleasant to all during their
stay. The vicinity of this station is
an exceedingly picturesque one, and
as healthy as it is beautiful. In re-
turning, the party called at the Mis-
sion San Fernando, and at the invita-
ton of Senior Don Andreas Pico, the
courtly and affable proprietor, visited
the different apartments of the an
cient, though well preserved mansion.
General Pico has a rare collection Of
old relies, such as swords, guns,
spurs, etc, used by the Indians
and inhabitants of California during
the latter part of the last century, the
history of which, and incidents con-
nected with them, were quite inter-
esting. The fine Olive orchard which
encircles the Mission buildings is
probably the oldest and finest in
America, and must be valuable prop
erty. After partaking of some
choice wines and fruit, the party pro-
ceeded homeward, feeling that their
brief sOjourn at the Mission was one
Of pleasure and profit and with the inn
preston that lSenor Don Andreas
PicO was as "happy as King"

Land Troubles in Ell Monte.

The PotrerO Grande grant, in this
county, has been the bone of conten-
ton for some time. 1t covers large
amount of land in Ell Monte, that for
considerable length of time has been
in the possession of settlers who have
sworn that they will not give it up,
and that bloodshed would be the re-
suit of any attempt to dispossess them.
About six months ago, in the suit of
Temple and Sanchez against B. New
man and Others, the plaintiffs, who
are the owners of the grant, obtained
judgement against the parties in
possession, as trespassers on their
lands, and an execution was
issued and placed in the hands
of Sheriff Rowland. The time al
lowed the defendants to give peaca-
BILE possession expired the other day,
and the Sheriff went out Monday eve
ming to remove them. He found New
man and others in the house, and so
barricaded that it would be difficult
to get at them. Returning to town,
he made arrangements for more Wig
orous campaign, and yesterday morn
ing, accompanied by deputies Bald
win, Gabriel, and some others, he
again went out to serve the writ. On
approaching the house he found it
still occupied by Newman and the
party. AS soon as the design of the
Sheriffs party was made plain to the
inmates, they fired, intiicting severe
and probably dangerous wound in
the breast and shoulder of Pete
Gabriel. This hostile demonstration
induced the Sheriff'to return to town
for more endorsements. Calling out
posse he returned to the scene of
hostilities determined to storm the
fortress and carry out the mandate of
the writ. In the meantime, fright
ened by the probable consequences of
their unlawful resistance to the Off
GERS, the party in possession dropped
the offensive and Newman, the prin-
cipal in the affair, gave himself up to
the Sheriff. He was brought to the
city last evening and placed in jail.
We understand that at a late hour Ga
briefs wound was declared serious,
and it was believed that he was bleed
ing inwardly.

The Dexter Saloon Robbery.

The officers have been busily en-
gagged in ferreting out thu particulars
of the robbery of the Dexter saloon
on Friday night and onl Monday night
succeeded in arresting the perpetra-
tors. A few days since Dave Cum
ningham was discharged from the
county Jail without cent of money,
and hence when seen drunk and spend
ing money freely, getting twenty
dollar piece changed at Desmond's hat
store, the suspicious of the police were
aroused, and officer Hartlee at once
set about watching him. Monday
evening he was seen to enter
the Los Angeles saloon on Los Angeles
street and the officer passing around a
corner soon fonnd him in converse
ton with "Seven-up joe" another
suspicious character, and after listen
ing short time heard enough to con-
vince him that Cunningham was the
man who committed the burglary.
Promptly arresting his men, he found
seventy-siX dollars of the money in
Cunninghams possession. Seventy
dollars of this, three twenties and
ten dollar piece in gold were in his
uaT1u NIlell ue Was luhcH, tiiu olA uol-
lars in silver change, was found in
his pockets. Cunningham was put in
jail, but Joe was retained by Hartlee,
and on a promise from the latter that
he would let him off, Joe made
clean breast of the whole af-
fair, and showed him where the
remainder of the money was conceal
ed. According to his statement Cum
ningham did the job alone, his only
part being to stand at the door while
Cunningham went in after the money.
The remainder of the money was
found buried in a field near the river,
on First street, Officer Hartlee going
with Joe to the place at about 2 o'clock
at night. On digging up the coin, two
sacks were found, one containing
S2O2 70, and the other SIS 50, making
with the money found on Cunning
ham, $357 %, recovered. Cunning
ham declares that he spent about $50,
and that this, together with the
amount recovered is all that was
taken, the story that $500 was stolen,
and that three-fingered Jack had
part of the money, being according to
him all a mistake. Officer Hartlee is
entitled to great credit for energy and
sagacity in working up this case.

There is bitter opposition to the con-

his confirmation. The New York

fixed political principles.

Kelley's Convertible Bond Bill, is
supported by only three out of eleven
members of the Banking and Curren-
cy Committee, only four of whose
members pronounce for imitation in
any form. 1t is now apparent that
the influence of the proper Committees
in both branches of Congress will be
adverse to imitation. Nevertheless the
House, yesterday by decided ma
jority, expressed itself in favor of
Kelley's financial scheme as a relief
from increased taxation, and adopt
ed a resolution declaring addi-
tional taxation unnecessary. If both
positions are sustained there must be
an immediate reduction of national
expenditures or the Treasury will be
bankrupt at very early day.
Strenuous efforts are making to
smother in the Pacific Railroad Com
mittee, I4uttrelps inquiry into the
Central Pacific Contract and Finances
proceedings.
The failure Of Cushing's friends to
secure an executive session yesterday,
is justly construed as favorable to his
nomination. Morton heads the oppo-
sition to the confirmation, but the en-
tire Judiciary Committee favor it, al
though opposition constantly grows,
and there seems to be little doubt that
he will be confirmed despite the mega
tive vote ola decided majority of the
Republican Senators.

Mr.. T. Brassey, M. p, an extern sive
employer, and an authority upon in
dustrial matters, recently observed, in
an address delivered in England, that
"a strike against falling market
was never successful, and that trades
unions, as organizations for the pur-
pose of raising wages, could never do
more than assist the workman to OBJ
tain an advance at a somewhat earlier
date than that at which the COMPETE
tion among employers would have
brought about the same result.
