CALIFORNIA; Great Operator.

The Bank of California advances money
on mining stocks, and is very peremptory
in compelling its creditors TO meet their
obligations at the hour. For example,
the bank will make a loan for one week
or one month, and subject the stocks 10
sale at early board unless they are re-
deemed by II o'clock IN the day. Many
of the most valuable mines on the Pacific
coast are partly owned by Ralston and
his associates, who have universal &C
quaintance and extensive facilities for
information. 1t is a good deal such
concern as the Austrian LlOyds. This
bank has loaned large sums of money 10
the Central Pacific railroad on its bonds
and has assisted the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company. The enormous opera
tons in wheat, tea, lumber, furs, coal
and wool which are conducted upon the
coast come incidentally 70 this bank. II
is said on good authority that during
eighteen months Ralstons personal
profits were IS, 600, 900 OF course much
of this was gained on his individual ac-
count He has established town about
fifteen miles from San Francisco, and he
lives al Belmont, twenty-seven miles
from the city, frequently driving ont
and back III his carriage, making the
trip each way in an hour and fifty min
utes, which is good railroad time. The
success Of the Bank of California has de
veloped several other large institutions,
such as the Bank of London and San
Francisco, of which ex-senator Latham
is President, and the German California
Bank, which is "A very large concern. As
hotel builder, Ralston excels any living
person. He and William Sharon own
the Grand Hotel and the Cosmopolitan.
They have just constructed the Palace
Hotel, one of the most enormous struct-
ures in the countryside feet by 275 in
dimensions, and covering nearly 10000
square feet of land.

1t is the fifth day since bullet weigh
ing half an ounce was lodged III the
brain of Mr.. Carrlth, the Vineland
editor, and he is still alive and this fact
is scarcely comprehensive to the many
who conceive the brain as in itself so es-
sentially vital that any injury to it is fol-
lowed inevitably and almost Immediately
10y death. Indeed, popular knowledge
is only divided between the brain and
the heart as the essential seats of vitality
and ii was a great puzzle to people when,
some years ago. pistol bullet was lodged
il the heart OF the well-known Bill Poole,
and that comparatively decent bravo of
city politics did not Immediately die.
In Poole's case the bullet was certainly
lodged in the muscular walls of the heart,
and il might have been as safe there as
in almost any other muscle, if repose and
attention had eased the labor of the heart
till careful nature could have reinforced
the walls and provided against accidents;
but an enemy was permitted to enter his
room too early-there was a new alterca-
ton, an excitement, and, the heart be-
ing forced to an untimely energy, the
thin septum of muscle that kept the bull
let in "A safe place was broken through,
the function of the organ was interfered
with. and death came. 1t is just as GER

find that shot in the heart or brain may
vet not be fatal, will begin TO mistrust

able stalls for horses, two near each erd
Of the car. When 1t is necessary to lie

stalls can he converted into roomy box
stalls; their sides are also cushioned TO
prevent accident. Every aperture, win
dow, etc, has wire screens to prevent
cinders from entering the car; the ar
rangements for preventing flies from
troubling the horse are also very ingen-
ious and useful. Overhead are conven-
fences for packing away sulkies. In one
corner of the car stove is carried for

feet, as well as for cooking when neces-
sary; also q refrigerator and numerous

A Texas Mailman.

Some months ago large and power
fully-built man went into the office of
Judge Smith, of Austin, Texas, and
asked the Judge to send him to lunatic
asylum. The man said he was a danger
Gus mailman, and not fit TO be running
around loose. His appearance of blunt
candor did not convince the Judge, and
he told the man he could do nothing for
him. The man went his way. The other
day he visited the Office again, and the
Judge recognized him. There was an
other man, Mr.. Denton, also in the office,
and it was well he was. Judge Smith
asked the visitor what be could do for
him, and the visitor drew long knife
and told the Judge he had come to kill
him. Now, big knife drawn in the
hand of big man in Texas means some
thing. The Judge grasped his heavy
cane, and Denton picked up chair.
There was lively skirmish, at the end
of which several chairs were broken, the
cane was splintered, and the man with
the knife was lying on the floor with
bleeding head. This time the Judge
thought the man was mad enough to
send TO the lunatic asylum, and he sent
him accordingly.

OLD ORCHARD.
Burning of the Old Orchard
House.
Total Loss, s5O.OOO.OO-No Insurance.

Old Orchard, Me, July PIP 80 a. N. The
Old Orchard House, Z. c. Staples, proprietor, is a
heap of smouldering ruins. At l0;l0 p m fire
was discovered in the attic, near the cupola, and
| an alarm was sounded. The flames soon worked
up into the cupola and spread over the whole
house. The fire being in the attic, good oppor-
tunity afforded for all in the house to get out.
The season here is near its height and there were
225 boarders in the house. A large number of
them lose portion of their wearing apparel, jew
ely, etc. The furniture in the lower pre- of the
house was mostly removed.
The alarm among so many persons in the hous,
was great, but no accident occurred. The fire
caught near the centre, spreading in all directions
and in short time the whole building was in
flames. The main house, music hall, new dining
hall, three story l., stables, billiard and bowling
halls were destroyed, but the original Old Or
chard Hoasc, few feet north of the new one, was
saved. The loss is estimated at $4,000. No in
surance.
Mr.. Staples is the pioneer landlord here. His
house was always full in the season. The regrets
at his loss are universal. The fire department and
hundreds of citizens came down from the city.
Steamers from Portland were telegraphed for,
but the order was countermanded. The Ocean
House was scorched, but was saved by the efforts
of the men with blankets, carpets and extinguish-
ers. The wind was from the north, and blew the
sparks away from the Ocean House.
