SnMoNNK, Feb. IT, lS79.-An Is year old
Young man named Wright, son n one Of our
most cntcrprlsing and wealthy citizens, has
been engaged in certain disrcputabIc under
takings recently, which may result in his APP
prchcnsiOn and punishment Some time since
it was believed 10y many that his familiarity
with certain well known members of the Sand
wch gang of thieves might prove dangerous
to his character. Quite recently his actions
seem to justify that suspicion. A short time
ago, while attending the high school, he drew
a loaded revolver upon the principal OF The
school, Mr. lIaight Of Earlvillc. For this he
was not punished, although he left school.
Last Saturday he attended the shooting match
in south Somonauk, La Sale county, and en-
gagged in row with one Jack kelchcll, using
n revolver in some way in the melee. Mon
day warrant was issued for his arrest by Is
uuirc t. l.. lloXey, of Somonauk. Thus far he
has cludcd the officers, yet he will be caught
before long and no doubt legally punished AS
he deserves.
Belle Wallis Swan, late of the La Sale Coun-
ty poor house, or palace for the paupcis, com
plains OF the treatment the poor uniOrlunalcs
yet in that institution" She claims that the
tables were very scantily furnished and in II
great many cases the food was poorly cooked, ,
and blames Martin Flahcrty to some extent She
says that if Martin was n married man he
would know better the needs of a family
But, then her judgment might not go very far
where she is well known.

TELEGR GRAPHIC ITEMS

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Commercial Bulletin states
that Senator Jones alleges that the rea-
son given him by Secretary Sherman
for wanting to abolish the Carson Mint
was that the silver was wanted East

that 1t was the duty of
the Secretary to coin silver where il is
most convenient. and issue certificates
against it dollar for dollar. He claimed
that We can use it freely 10 the shape of
certificates without doing violence to
any imaginary international money
standard. and there is no excuse for
Sherman's not embracing the present
opportunity to Issue silver certificates.

THE PACIFIC INSANE ASYLUM.

The asylum for the insane of Nevada.
ut Stockton, California, bears the above
name. The joint committee of the two
Houses of the Legislature appointed to
visit the asylum. have submitted their
report to the Legislature. 1t is favor.
able to the proprietors. Messrs. Lang
don 4 Clark. who under contr ct with
the State of Nevada. keep the IN.
fortunates who are mentally diseased.
The buildings are capacious and well
ventilated, and are surrounded with
pleasant grounds, ornamented with
trees aud shrubbery. Everything about
the premises seemed to be conducive to
the health and comfort of the patients,
who are we'll fed aud considerably
and humanely treated. There were
eighty patients in the asylum two years
ago. and sixty nine have been admitted
since. Eighteen have been discharged,
and fourteen have died, in the past two
years, and there are now 10 the asylum
one hundred and seventeen patients.
Owing to the fact that the asylum is so
we'll conducted. the Committee do not
recommend that an asylum be built in
Nevada. but submit that question to
the bodies of which they have the honor
of being mem bers, for their careful, just
and impartial consideration.
The report of the State Controller
shows that there is now in the Build
Fund $l32 100. subject to the control
of the Legislature. IT this is not ap.
piled to the building of an asylum for
the insane in the State. it can. as the
Controller suggests, be transferred to
the General Fund, in which event the
rate of State taxation can be safely re-
duced to forty cents on the 800 valua.
ton of property. 1t therefore remains
for the Legislature to say whether the
State shall have an insane asylum
within the State, with the rate of taxa
ton at fifty cents. or renew the con.
tract with Dr's Langdon & Clark for
caring for the insane at Stockton. Cali
fornia, and reduce taxation to forty
cents. The papers, particularly those
published where it is expected the
asylum. if built. will be located, will
Of course favor the proposition to build.
bnt it is probable that if the taxpayers
at the State were consulted on the mat.
ter they would prefer the latter course,
particularly since it has been shown by
the Joint Committee. which visited the
asylum. that the insane are we'll cared
for and comfortably situated in their
present quarters.
