The Suicide.

The coroner's Jm'y summoned by Jepth
Thornton, J. P, to inquire into the cause
of the death of Thos Logan, who committed
snicide at Tipton's mill, returned verdict
to the effect that the deceased came to his
death from q gunshot wound inflicted by his
own hands while laboring under tempora-
ry fit of insanity. There was method in Lo-
gan's insanity, however. He was careful
enough to place the gun over the body of the
man sleeping with him, so the bullet would
injure no one else. and with his toe upon the
trigger ofthe gun he;sent his soul into eter-
nifty with only the trouble to those who
slept near and with him Of waking up and
viewing the corpse.

The Hutchinson Family.

This talented family Of singers
will make It's appearance for the
first time before Roseburg au.
dience on Tuesday and Wednes>
day evenings at the Court House.
The Hutchinson family comprises
first class singers who have travel
ed the world over and everywhere
been highly appreciated, and the
performance they vii. give at the
Court House will be worthy the
patronage otall since all who will go
there will certainly pass away two
enjoyable evenings. There will
be an entire change of programme
for Wednesday evening. Speaks
ing of the Family the New Y ork
Tribune, an authority III musical
matters, has this to say: "They
slug because they love to sing,
because music and melody is
their natural atmosphere; and
people will crowd 10 hear them,
because their singing meets a
wait which the people feel. we
remember the troupe quite well,
when they came 10 the front III
the anti>slavery movement, and
sang their songs OF emancipation.
With always q sad nndertoue,
they still sang hopefully and full
offaith. How completely has that
faith been justified! How trl-
umphantly can they sing OF the
fruition OF liberty now! We al
ways go to hear them for it is
good for us. Even their sadest
songs seem the sweetest. Why is
it that the music OF sadness Is al>
ways the best? Their rolllcking
fun makes US laugh, but those
sweet, sad songs, tor which they
seem peculiarly adapted, move US
as Lo others can.

THE FINANrIAL CONDITION OF
THE COUNTY

The financial report of the late County
Audit r, G. A. LaGrave, Is published
to-day. 1t shows the total indebted
ness of the county to be $77,372 Sc Of
this amount. go. 900. expended in
building the court house, is bonded
The bonds. draw interest at the rate of
ten per cent. per annum. and are pay
able in 1895. twenty years from the
date of their issue. This leaves the
floating indebtedness of the county at
$25, 900 in round numbers. which
shows a reduction of about 900 in
the year 1878. Last year the tax from
the proceeds of mines was less than
usual, and there was q general depres.
Ssion in business throughout the county.
TGis year the business outlook. in con-
sequence of the discovery and Develop
ment of several rich mines, is better
than ever before. and it is confidently
expected that with an economical adj
; miinistrRtion of the affairs of the
county, and the increased revenue from
taxes on bn lion and other property.
the floating Indebtedness will be greatly
reduced if not wholly cancelled, before
the Close of the year. The bonded
debt cannot be cancelled except at the
option Of the bondhoiders, until the ex.
piration of the twenty years from
the date of their Issue. They draw
good. yet not exorbitant interest. and
as they are secured by the whole tax
able property of the county, it is not
probable that they conld be redeemed,
if the money for the purpose Was in
the Treasury, except at high premium.
Financiallg. the county Is sonnd, and
everything required in carrying on the
government Can be procured at cash
rates. so that III reality alhthe difference
between its present condition and o
cash basis. is the interest on county
warrants from the date of their issue by
The Auditor until they are paid by the
Treasurer

THE PROPOSED INSANE ASYLUM.

In noticing bill introduced in the
Legislature for the purpose of building
an Insane Asylum in the State of Ne
vada,- the SILVER STATE suggested Big.
Meadows, in this county, as an eligible
site for the institution. The bill pro.
vides that some two hundred acres of
land. presumably for GU ltivation. should
be attached to the asylum, and it oc
cured to the writer that no locality in
ths State could 6ll all the requirements
70 better advantage than the Big Mead
tws. for the following reasons: Its
central location on the railroad; the
low price at which land can be pro
cured and its adaptability for cultiva
ten abundance of water for irrigatipg
purposes. and q mild and salubrious
climate. Now we are informed that
there are bthsr places in the county
Just as eligible as the Big Meadows for
40 Insane Asylum. among which are
Golconds, with it's hot springs; Old
Camp Scott. Paradise valley, where
there are good buildings. and plenty of
water and. arabic land; Mill City. where
several hundred acres of land are being
brought under cultivation. and water
from the Humboldt river is used for irv
rigating purposes; and last, though not
least. Grass Valley, within six or eight
miles of Winnemncca, where land can
D purchased at Government prices aud
water could be procured at a trifling ex-
pense.. 1t appears from this showing
that there are very many available sites
for the asy INN in Humboldt county.
and 1t is to be hoped that one off them
wilt be selected by the COMMISSIONS
should the bill become 4 law.
