WESTERN DISP PATCHES
ESPECIAL TO THE SILVER STATE
FROM CALIFORNIA.


The examination of Mile. de Gran
Vile resulted in the discharge of defen-
dant. She gave testimony to the effect
that she first met Greenwald in ladies'
furnishing store on Kearny street,
though she had received a note from
him, which she tore up and threw
away. From the store they repaired to
a restaurant for dinner, where he ex
hibited ard kindly loaned her the cross.
Next evening, while descending the
steps from the mphitheatre, she fell
headlong down and was carried to
private Office. When she finally reached
the hotel she discovered the cross was
missing. She became sick over the
loss, and offered $50 reward for its re-
covery. Several witnesses corroborated
the fact, and the court dismissed the
case.
DR.. J. Bechlinger yesterday swore
out warrant and caused the arrest of
Frederick Marriott on charge of libel.
The complaint grows out of the pub
lication of compliments name in the
News Letter among those physicians
who are charged with practising with
out diploma. Defendant gave bail in
the sum Of $500 and was released to
appear in court when called, which
will probably be to-day.
Josie Cline, girl of 10, died on Sun
day of brain fever, supposed to have
been superinduced by the revival ex-
element now rigging in this city. Sew
eral other cases of similar character
are reported.
SACRAMENTO, March 8.
The Municipal election to-day was
conducted quietly. All the Republican
candidates were elected but one by a
large majority. Three hundred guns
were fired and the successful candidates
serenaded.
VALLEJO, March 8.
About one O'Clock this afternoon, as
John Sachelle was walking on Georgia
street, Greek named Bartonius Ar
minicus ran up behind him with a
razor and cut him around the neck and
head, inflicting four very serious
wounds. Officer Hutchins rescued
Sachelle from Arminicus, who was
lodged in Jail. Sachelle was placed
under the care of DR.. Frisbie, who pro-
no,lnced the wounds not necessarily
fatal. The cause of the assault is un-
known.

CONCORD. n. H., March 10.
As the returns come in from the back
districts they make the contest look
closer. The Republicans have high
hopes of the election of Cheney by
good popular vote. and of a good ma
jority in both branches of the Legisla-
ture. Returns received thus far do not
determine the result. Official returns
at the Office of the Republican State
Committee show that the towns not yet
heard from must give an aggregate Re-
publican majority of 700 in order to in
surs the election of Cheney. These
towns will probably give this majority,
Latest returns do not show the result
as indicated in the previous dispatches.
Everything shows general Republican
sweep. The Republican gain will be
about 800, and the election of all Re-
publican Congressman is almost GER
tain.

The Timcs's assault on the publishers OF
an insurance periodical Ia very stimulating read
ing. One Of the worst things to be said against
the admirable institution OF life Insurance Ia
that so many OF the companies who write poli-
cies have so long submitted to the extortions Of
venal Legislators and so-called insurance Jour
mails. The striking Of the life Insurance CONF
panics has been "A regular business at Albany,
and there are papers and magazines published
with Insignificant circulation which live entire
ly on the money they get out OF the com panies.
II the business Of life Insurance was always
conducted on proper principles, the officers Of
the companies would never need to fear the
assaults Of these publications, nor to covet their
purs. The trouble has been that life companies
have been formed primarily for the bene0t Of
the officers, who would run them at dangerous
rate Of expense, and knowing their hidden
weakness, these officials would tremble at tho
consequences Of attack. An institution which
takes the savings Of the provldent for the benefit
OF women and children, should be in all things
open aud above board 1t should have no secrets
to be unearthed. and no fears Of the exposure
OF its methods should disturb the equnnimiti OF
its directors. our life Insurance companies
hold In trust hundreds of millions Of dollars,
and the community has a vital interest In their
management. The theory Of life insurance IL
very simple and there need be no mysterious
compile iton about tho administration Of n
company. Its reports should be full and ex-
pllct, so that every one could easily understand
It's condition, and just where the money goes.
| The expense of soliciting policies Is now too
great as nrule while the Office expenses are apt
to foot up too high, aud reports arc prevalent
that some officers benefit by commissio on
the loaus they make. In this period of economy
these corporations must resolutelv cut on all

No doubt, no doubt Topper Hollands genius
is essentially dramatic, like that OF his great
totype. whose " Proverbial Philosophy" has long
been recognized as a perfect mine OF thrilling
incidents and intense situations. when Tupper
Holland wrote BITTER Sweet" for instance, he
wrote tragico-comic sketch OF New England
life which would really require but little altera-
tion to adapt It to the stage. What could be
more dramatic than the scene where David, or
Joshua, or John Henry-we not sure Of the
name-soes down cellar in bowling snow storm
with Ruth, or Naomi. or Keziah, to draw cider,
and apostrophizes the several barrels OF pota-
toes which the good Isaac. or Elisha, or Ichabod
had stored away for the winter needs of his large
and interesting familyr What could be more
effective at the end OF an act, with the proper
accessories OF slow music and red fire. than th 9

viously taken all the downward steps from strict

lupper Holland cannot wholly repress the
dramatic instinct. This is often apparent in
Timothy Titcomb's letters 10 newly married
people. when he advises young husbands to
wear neck ties Of lively color, red, emerald or
striped, that they may retain the affections Of
their wives by appealing to the aesthetic sensi-
bllities Of the latter, he outlines an idea which
might be worked up into a very pretty domestic
drama in four acts Topper Holland should not
be satisfied with crude suggestions. He should
abandon the lyceum platform and escape the

Of deadly hatred toward religion, and that
they cannot be induced 20 give any heed
10 its words. But we have certainly seen
that at this time the greater part Of Brook
lyn are in different frame of mind.
Why, then. should not the clcrgymcn Of
brooklyn take advantage Of these two
favorable indications, brought out by
MOODY aud sANkEY? OF course we do not
intend to draw up IA programme of action
for them, since there are men IN their own
ranks ready to do this.
We know that n number of Brooklyn
preachers are making extra efforts just
now. In an Isolated way; but the results
from them do not seem to justify their con-
tnuance. Tile thing we want to see is a
united, energetic, and gigantic struggle Of
the Brooklyn clergy against Satan. 1t
might produce wonderful Pentecostal re-
suits, If 1t were what 1t ought to be, and
If the preachers were properly inspired
and wisely advised.
