JUDGE PAYNE, in the Santa CT .ra

that John Doe warrants are not legal. In
the case in Iuestio where the legality
efan arrest was disputed, the Court
charged the jury that warrant to be
legal must name or describe the person
10 be arrested, and that tho officer must
know from the face of the warrant, with
out any other in formation, whom he is
commanded to arrest. The warrant in
this case, be claimed, was therefore ille-
gal, and the defendents had an TN
den liable right to resist an attempt
to make an arrest under it, lie said,
conceding that John Doe meant some
person, it was the officials du:y to arrest
that individual or return upon the war

this, and attempted 70 arrest a person
who was not named or described in the
warrant, who he believed was the person
he was expected to arrest, from informa
tien received from third person, and
not from anything indicated in his pro
tess. lie was, therefore, committing a

ANOTHER BIRTHDAY.

when we remember that the JOURNAL
has experienced its full share Of the vi
cissitudes Of fortune incident to newspa-
per publishing in She California mines,
including one fire, in October 1868, when
the oflice-types, presses end everything
connected with twas totally destroyed.
Semi occasionally in the distant past,
before the days Of rapid transit, its pub
fishers were forced 10 print it upon wrap
ping paper, but not single week was
allowed to 90 by without its regular APP
pearance. Few papers in the State that
have attained its age can boast of so
perfect record in this respect.
As local newspapor-and that is all II
/ has ever claimed to bs--we believe the
JOURNAL has been a success, giving en-
tire satisfaction to all concerned in its
welfare ard being credit to its publishers
and an honor to the community which
has so literally contributed to its support.
/ geographically it has compared tavora-
! bly, with other weeklies on this Coast, nor
has it ever done aught to injure the fair
fame OF California journalism. AS n
business investment, the JOURNAL has
always been a paying one, though we
cannot now call to mind any Of It's former
publishers who retired with a competence.
( That they might have done so, however,
is evidenced by glance at its files and a
remembrance of the high prices which
ruled in "eally days" What may hap
pen in the future, in a financial way, we
cannot forosee, but hope to do betterin this
respect thar ON honorad predecessors.
Circumstances forced its present owner
into the sole proprietorship Of the concern
at time when the indebtedness hanging
over it was far in excess Of its market
value, but with the continued kind assist
ance and patronage Of our friends and the
public we hope to come out ahead in the
end.
SO far as the future of the paper is
concerned, we promise an improvement
conditioned on the support it may receive.
A new dress of types and rules is needed
throughout. and these we bope to pur-
chase before anotberyear We also hope
to be able to reduce the subscription
price Of the paper, to be more in keeping
with The times, and shall certainly do so
just as soon as circumstances will justify
tho reduction. As to its character, it
shall be our endeavor TO maintain the
high standing the JOURNAL has already
attained and improve it if possible, con
stantly bearing in mind That its success
mainly depends upon the success Of Trim

How Washington Was Knocked Down.

At the time Gen. Washington was
stationed at Alexandria, Va, as a
Colonel of a British regiment, before
the war of the Revolution, an alterca-
ton took place in the Court House yard
between him and William Payne, in
which Payne knocked Washington
down. Great excitement prevailed, as
Payne was known to be firm and Wash
ington was beloved by all. A nights
reflection, however, satisfied Washing
ton that he was The aggressor and in
the wrong, and in the morning he, like
true and magnanimous hero, sought
an interview with Payne, which result
ed in an apology from Washington and
a warm and lasting friendship between
the two, founded on mutual esteem.
During the Revolutionary war, while
Washington was on visit to his family,
William Payne, with his son, De Vail,
went to pay his respects to the great
American chief. Gen. Washington met
him some distance from the house, took
him by the hand and led him into the
presence of Mrs. Washington, to whom
he introduced Mr.. Payne as follows
my dear, here is the little man whom
you have so frequently heard me speak
of, who once had the courage to knock
me down in the Court House yard at
Alexandria, big as / am."-Collins'

1t is an awkward thing to be GUS
todian of trust-funds in Great Britain.
Several wealthy gentlemen had acted as
trustees for widows who held shares in
the Glasgow Bank among their other
property. The bank officers entered
the shares in the names of the trustees
instead of the actual owners. The bank
went into liquidation, and decision by
the highest court in the United King
dom has made the unfortunate trustees
liable for the debts of the bank not only
to the value of the shares, but to the
whole extent of their private fortunes.
BY the nature of the trust they were
debarred from receiving any benefits
from the investment, and by the de-
cision they are saddled with liabilities
to the point of total ruin.

INTERESTING LEGAL NOTES.

BY the laws of Kansas women have
the same property rights as men.
A LAW has been passed by the State
Legislature of Ohio that if an insurance
agent shall over-insure piece of prop
erty he shall forfeit his license.
The Treasurer of an Iowa county lost
$1,000 of the public funds by the fail
ure of bank, recently. He was sued
for the money, and, on appeal, it has
been decided by the Supreme Court of
the State that he must pay it; that GUS
todians of public moneys who place
them in banks must make good all
losses.
In the case of man named Holmes,
who was called as juror in land suit
in Florida court, the Supreme Court
of the United States has given an i'm
portant opinion. Holmes was chal-
lenged on the ground that he was dis
qualified under section $40 of the Re-
visei Statutes, which does not admit
ex- Confederates to places on juries.
The court below ruled that Holmes need
not answer any questions touching his
qualifications under this section, and
overruled the challenge. The Supreme
Court holds that juror is no more
obliged than witness to disclose on
oath that he is guilty of any crime or
of any act which would render him in
famous in order to test his qualifca-
tons as q juror. The questions asked
him, if answered in the affirmative,
would have convicted him of the crime
of treason, whether pardoned by a
general amnesty or not. The crime was
one which, in the opinion of this
court, he could not be required to dis
close in this manner. If he were
guilty, the challenger had the right to
prove it by other competent testimony.
AS he did not offer to do this, and as
the jurors incompetency was not prov
en-, the court was not bound to exclude
him. Justice Miller delivered the
opinion, Justice Field presented a sep
arate but concurrent opinion, and JUS
tice Strong dissented from the de-
cision of the court.

A most extraordinary freak of the

side of the church while those inside
were suffering from the terrible fright
incident to the peril they were in.
Among the attendants at the funeral
was Mr.. William II. McKeagh, who had
left his horse and buggy standing out
side the church. Incredible as it may
seem, the cyclone caught up the beast
and buggy, lifted them into the air to a
height of from forty to fifty feet, and,
after whirling them about above and
over the tree tops for distance of over
200 feet. dashed them again to the earth
at the southwest corner of Clinton
and Main, where the beast was instant
ly converted into q mass OF crushed
bone and jelly, while the buggy was
torn int thousand fragments.-St.
