Tiger determination in India.

After long struggle, Madras, says
the Pioneer Mail, is apparently des-
tined to get the upper hand of her IT,
gers, by means of what Mr.. Calcraft
would call a species Of improved drop.
But in that case, Madras must share
the glory with Colonel Marshalps
friends, the Todas of the Neigherries.
1t is strange that, after all our scien-
tific methods of campaigning against
the tiger, we should be obliged to fall
back on the simple tactics of an OBJ
scure and semi-savage hill tribe. We
have cunningly planned, but to no
purpose, that the animal should shoot
himself while eating his dinner. We
have even induced him to swallow
doses of strychnine--only to discover,
to our modification, that he actually
returns to his poisoned carcass as if he
rather liked it. The Toda plan, which
Captain Garfield has adopted, is avail
able wherever jungle-logs, brush-wood
and stones are to be had. 1t simply
consists of an enclosure, disguised
like cattle kraal, with only one en-
try, and Give baitn sheep or kid
inside of it. The entry is so arranged
that in attempting to pass through it
the tiger Is, or ought to be, instantly
crushed by downfall of boulders.
The plan seems effective, for out of
seven tigers recently bagged by Cap
tain Garfield in the Coimbatore jun
giles, five were accounted for OH the
Toda plan.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-03-13

The Journal DIES Debdts, of the Sd
ult., published some details concern
ing the suicide at Zurich of Field
Marshal Won Gablenz, of Austria.
General Won Gablenz, it appears, had
lost heavily at the Vienna Bourse,
especially in operations connected
with the Austrian Credit Mobilier, in
which venture alone his losses
amounted to 100000 francs. At first
Austrian journals refused to admit
that his death was caused by suicide.
They have since, however, acknowl-
edged the fact. A Zurich newspaper
relates that the Field Marshal, who
had arrived in that city, few days
previous, had killed himself in his
room by shooting himselfin the heart
with pistol. Upon his table were
found a number of letters and tele-
graphic dispatches. prepared with his
own hand, in which he announced the
news of his death to his relatives.
Another journal of Zurich says that IA
short while previous to his fatal deter
mination to take his life he had invited
two of his friends to pay him visit at
IL O'clock A. M, OH the day. of his
death. When they reached his rooms
they found the doors locked. The
doors were then forced open. The
sleeping apartment was empty, but
in an adjoining cabinet the body of
the General was found stretched upon
a sofa. His head was hanging behind
the cushion, and the right arm was
lying in a military pose upon the right
leg. His left hand still held the pistol
grasped in it. The bystanders, says
the newspaper in question, were struck
with the beauty of the death scene.
The heart had been pierced with the
bullet. Lying on the table in front of
him was note written ip firm hand,
and by the side of the note was
pencil. This note he had directed to
be read at his funeral. 1t ran as fol-
lows: -
81 have prayed and l am composed,
but can no longer live. The elevated
functions with which l am clothed
were especially agreeable to me
because OF the good that l could do on
every side. 1t was toward this goal
that all my efforts tended, and now it
is my consolation. For a long time /
have suffered from a nervous irrita-
tion which for months has rendered
ME unable to sleep. The measure is
full"
General Won Gablenz was sixty
nine years old. He took distinguish
ed part in the campaign of Lombardy,
in 1859, and in 1864, at the invasion of
the Duchies, he commanded the
Austrian forces. At Sadowa he had
two army corps under his command.
Since then he had been commander
in-chief i'm Hungary.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-03-13

There was fierce tilt in the State
Senate on Saturday on the question OF
asking Congress for an appropriation
for the improvement of Oakland har-
Dor. The objections urged were that
the water front is owned by the rail-
road company, and that the work is
impracticable. The best answer to the
latter is that it has been declared feas-
IDLE by United States engineers after a
thorough survey, and this we imagine
ought to be satisfactory. Theory of
"railroad" we are afraid has only been
raised to prejudice people against the
scheme. 1t is very possible that the
railroad company will be benefited
by the improvement, but so will every
other interest in the State, more or
less. We cannot afford to oppose every
improvement for fear of incidentally
benefitting the Central Pacific, and
such opposition savors too much of the
demagogue to count for much. The
whole people of the State are inter-
ested in securing all the harbor facili-
ties that we can. Let us have Oakland
harbor made perfect, Wilmington
harbor finished, and San Diego Bay
secured against damage. 1t will add
to the wealth and prosperity of the
State and nation, and no narrow local
prejudice or hostility to Stanford
should stand in the way. We are no
friend to the policy of substituting
railroads or any other private enter
prise with the money belonging to the
people, but there is no sense in Grip
ping our. own resources to weaken the
railroad, even if it We're to our advan-
tage to have it weakened.

To Mexican War Veterans.

The National Association of the
Veterans of the Mexican WARMTH
headquarters in Washington, ID. c.
was organized by the late National
Convention of the Veterans held on
the 18th ult. at the city of Washing
ton, ID. c., Gen. George Cadwalader of
; Penn. being chosen President-with
one Vice-President from each State,
Territory, Army and Navy as also a
council of administration consisting
of one member from each State. ETC.,
five Secretaries and one Treasurer.
The Secretaries have made a division
ofthe States and Territories, the second
division embracing the States of Cali
fornia and Oregon, Washington and
Arizona Territories, as also all States
east of Pennsylvania, this division
being under the supervision of Mr..
Francis d. Clark, of No. 254 Broadway,
New York. Each secretary is charged
with the duty of obtaining the names
of all persons who served in the Next
can War and properly registering the
same. AS the National Association
are now urging the pension bill before
Congress with very fiattering pros
poets of its passage, whereby So per
month will be granted the survivors of
that War, it is the duty of all to see
that their name and address are for
warded to the secretary of their divis-
ion. An assistant secretary for each
State and Territory will soon be select
ed to aid the division secretary in
enrolling the names.
Col. James E. huffman, of San
Francisco, is the Vice. President for
California, and the Hon. S. o. Hough-
ton, M. c., is the California member
of the council of administration.
Both of the gentlemen, as also Mr..
Clark the division secretary, Were
former members of Col. StevensOn's
regiment of N. Y. Volunteers, which
served in California during the Next
can War. Gen. w. II. Sherman rep
resents the Army as one of the Vice.
