A dispute having long existed In q

cream for breakfast, the gentleman one
morning called them before him, that he
might hear what they had to say, and
decide accordingly. The maid pleaded
that the coachman was lounging about
the kitchen the greater part Of the morn

would not fetch the cream for her,
notwithstanding he saw she had so much

The coachman alleged that il was not

for il. Compare The school books OF the
past with any paper on teaching addressed
10 the Young women OF the present.

know, the subjects they are 10 be inter-
esled In, the iDtricacies OF grammar and
construction. which are to be at their
finger ends, with the ignorance of acci.
dental picking up OF knowledge which
was once The women's main chance OF
requirement and our expectations are not
upreasonably raised. The pupils OF the
new school ought to be more companion
able than their predecessors, they ought
to talk better, more correctly, more ele-
gautly; and, IS their subjects OF interest
become more profound, as science and
art open their stores to them, their vocao-
ulary should meet the need at once more
accurate, more copious. more felicitous.
We put il to our world of readers-is 1t

Short Hints Concerning Sickness.
Don't whisper in the sick.room.

Don't whisper in the sick-room.
When the doctor comes to see you. re.
member how many pair of stairs he has
to climb every day. and 60 down TO him
if you are we'll enough.
When you are sitting up at night with
patient. be sure to have something to eat
il you wish to save yourself unnecessary
exhaustion.
Remember that sick people are not
necessarily idiotic or imbecile, and that
it is not always wise TO try to persuade
them that their suffsrings are imaginary.
They may evenat times know best what
they need.

n T'afe of HuHLbnrH's.

A boy in St Louis was recently pre-
sented with jscknile. and with which,
boylike he cut and marked everything
that came in his way from the dining
room table TO the cats tail. A few days
after he had become the happy possessor
of the knife. his father was startled by
seeing two men bringing home the
Young hopeful in very dilapidated
condition. His face seemed TO be cut
and bruised and covered with blood.
The father, OF course, was very much
alarmed and inquired OF the boy who hit
him. Nothing didn't hit me, sir" the
boy answered between his sobs ''it was
only mule kicked me in the eye" "A
mule kicked you in the eve, eh ?" replied
the father. "Havnt told you a thousand
times or more that mules and gunpowder
were not fit things for boys to fool with ?
What were you doing to the mule ?" II
Il wasn't fooin' with .'em at ALL" said
the boy; Il was only trying TO cut my

THE BUcHU MAN.

Two or three years ago, Henry T.
Hembold, famous as the "Buchu
man." failed in business and attempted
to commit suicide. A short time after
ward he went to Europe, since which
time nothing had been heard of him,
and but little of his medicines, of
which, in the days Of his prosperity.
he was an extensive advertiser. Two
weeks since, says the CAL, he returned
to America, and, although suspected
to be penniless, related such wonder
full stories Of the immense business
undertakings he had on hand, that his
sanity was doubted. An examination
by a commission in New York City
confirmed this suspicion, and he was
sent to an insane asylum. At one time
Helmbold had q princely fortune, but
extravaganza In living and misventures
in speculation occasioned his downfall,
as they have thousands of others who
lacked the balance-wheel of good judg-
ment.

sLAUGHTER OF THE INNOCENrs,

Yesterday was a Black Wednesday
for stock o p~crators. Down down stocks
went, until it would seem the whole
bottom had fallen out of the market.
Pretty much everything on the list
suffered a heavy decline. The depre-
citation which set in last week finally
eliminated yesterday in a panic, the
like Of which, perhaps, has not been
witnessed on California street more
than once or twice since the establish
ment Of the Stock Exchange. A pri-
vate dispatch from q prominent opera

regular press dispatches also say the
decline was such as to result in a gen.
eral panic. We give the figures at

The statement will enable the reader
to see at a glance how great has been

MORE RAILROADS.

Governor Stanford and the rest of
the big guns Of the Central Pacific
Railroad have recently been on a visit
to the extreme southern portion OF
California. While in Los Angeles the
editor of the Herald interviewed them,
eliciting information of general inter
est. The Herald says:
1t is the purpose of the Railroad
Company to set several dredgers at
work at their own expense on the
Wilmington bar. The Southern "a
cific is to be pushed forward to the
Colorado river as expedltiously as men
and material will do the work. The
company still adhere to the determine
ton to close the gap between Los An.
yeles and San Francisco by the first OF
next July. They also propose to build
a branch road from the most available
point OH the Southern Pacific in the
Mohave Valley to the mines of lnyo
county.
This will be a competing line with
that being constructed from Santa
Monica to Independence, in Inyo
county. The Herald also says:
The Southern Pacific Company has
it in contemplation to construct a road
from San Diego out to San Gorgonio
Pass when a connection will be made
with the Southern Pacific. The com
pany has sent out a corps of engineers
with instructions to survey a railroad
route from San Diego to the ella on the
32d parallel, and it is thought not to be
Improbable that a road running out OF
San Diego over this route will be com
menced before many months have
gone bv.

PARTICULARS Of THE RENO
TRAGEDY.

We had by telegraph the other day
an account of a shooting scrape at the
race course near Reno, in which an in
nocent outsider by the name of Fred
erick Twigg was instantly killed. We
are indebted to the Reno Journal for
the following additional particulars:
J. 4. Mooney and Thomas Raymond
we're the parties engaged in the
shooting. Both are well known horse
men, and both had horses on training
on the ground for the approaching fair.
They engaged in an alteration con-
| corning a small bet made between
them a few days since. Raymond vas
disposed to be cap.ious in the matter,
and drawing a six shooter babe Mooney
"tix' himself. Mooney broke into his
stall and soon ~reappeared, gun in hand,
and the firing commenced. At this
writing we are not Ire who fired the
first shot. However, both men fired
six shots apiece, without injury to
| either. They then clinched and fell to
the ground, Raymond On top, and he
commenced beating Mooney over the
head with his empty shooter, infiict-
| ing several several eve bruises and
splitting MONEYS neau open IN one
| place, on the left side, for about four
inches. Mooney yelled Justify, and
Dick Allen, another we'll known horse
man, who had sought the refuge Of a
stall during the shooting, came outand
separated the men. Then it was dis
covered hat the man Twigg had been
killed, a bullet having struck him on
the right side of tie nose, just below
the bridge. From the position occu-
pied by Mooney and Raymond it was
evident that the bullet from the latter's
gun had done the horrible deed, and
we understand that Raymond admits
that such was the case. Both Mooney
and Raymond were instantly arrested
Raymond lodged in Jail and Mooney
taken to DIR. Hogan's Office, where DIR.
Dawson dressed his wounds. Coroner
Jones Immediately repaired to the
Fair Grounds and brought the dead
man to town. The deceased-and this
is what makes the situation so terrible
