Among the bills passed by the Legisla-
ture and signed by the Governor is one re-
quiring recorders Of deeds to prepare and
keep in their respective offices, general,
direct and ad sectum indexes of deeds and
mortgages recorded therein, prescribing
the duty of said recorders and declaring
that the entries in said general indexes
shall be notice to all persons.
The first section provides that in addition
to the indexes which the recorder of deeds
in each county of this commonwealth is re-
quircd to keep, the said recorder shall care
fully and accurately prepare and keep in his
Office two general indexes of all deeds re-
corded therein, in one of which, to be known
as the direct index, he shall enter in their
order the name Of the grantor, the name
of the grantee, the volume and page where
in the deed is recorded and in the other, to
be known at the ad sectum index, he shall
enter in their order the name Of the gran
tee, the name of the grantor, the volume
and page wherein the deed is recorded. He
shall in like manner also prepare and keep
two general indexes, one direct and the
other ad scctum, Of all mortgages recorded
in his Office. Said indexes shall be arranged
alphabetically and in such way as to af-
ford an easy and ready reference to said
deeds and mortgages respectiyely y, and shall
be written in a plain and legible hand :
Provided, however, that in any county
where such indexes have already been pre-
pared and in use Or where any special law
relating to any of said indexes is now in
force they shall be adopted and kept as if
made in pursuance Of this act.
SEC. :. As soon as said indexes are pre-
pared it shall be the duty of the recorder
to index in its appropriate place and man
ner every deed and mortgage thereafter re-
corded in his office at the time the same is
recorded, and in case he neglects to do SO
he and his sureties shall be liable in dam
ages to any person aggrieved by such ne,
glect.
SEC. 3. The entry of recorded deeds and
mortgages in said indexes respectively shal
be notice to all persons by the recording ot
the same.
SEC /. In counties where no such index
es have been kept the recorders thereof are
hereby authorized and required to prepare
the same, the costs thereof are to be paiC
by the county but after said work has beer
done the costs of continuing the same ac
cording to the provisions of this act shall be
paid by the respective recorders.

The following is from the San Jose
Mercury: Senator Booth Is, If possi-
BILE, greater favorite in San Fran
cisco than he is in his home at Sacra-
mento. He has had larger and more
appreciative audiences in that city
than any public man of recent times.
No doubt the charm of his eloquence
has had something to do with it. But
the main stimulus is to hear man
who has exhibited so rare fidelity to
the public interests and whose official
acts are tinged with the representa-
tive character so frequently abjure,t
nowadays.

Grasshopper Plague Denied.

Gov. 7. A. Osborn, of Kansas, who
arrived in San Francisco direct from
Topeka last Sunday evening, informs
the Bulletin that the kilograms pub
lished from Chicago, to the effect that
grasshoppers are already becoming
troublesome in Missouri, Kansas, Ne
braska and other Western States, are
not altogether true. That so far as
Kansas is concerned, some two weeks
since some grasshoppers were hatched
out down in the Southeastern corner
of that State, near Fort Scott, but that
cold rain set in and continued for
two days, which had the effect Of kill
ing all the young hoppers; that they
only occurred In patches at intervals
throughout small area of country,
and that there is no fear whatever
that anything like the plague of last
year will be witnessed the coming
season, and that in Nebraska the same
state of affairs exists. Another fortu-
nate circumstance is that the weather
has not been of such mild character
OiiuS idt Wis CpilhS DO W ChCouioSC
the growth or maintenance of the
lively insect.
Gov. Osborn of course desires to put
Kansas in a favorable light before the
public, but Kansas people well know
that cold rains, thaws and frosts are
only little inconvenience to the pests
and do not kill them. We have seen
an experiment tried which illustrates
this: Grasshoppers' eggs have been
hatched out in q warm oven, the hop
pers were put in a bottle and exposed
at night where they would freeze
hard, so that in the morning they
ratified like gravel stones, and then
after another thaw they would hop
around and devour vegetation with
unimpaired appetite. The Governor
of Missouri does not agree with the
Governor of Kansas, and calls for Dr.
vine help; but then Gov. Osborn nev-
er was much on the pious lay.
