compelled to jump from the windows of the

some satirical persons have qualified them. have
gained the firm conviction that Mr.. Hornblower
whatever may be said OF his mpulsve nature or the
rashness of his views on some subjects, has proven
himself to be fearless ana just advocate Of princi-
pies which every community that has any regard To
sefrespect ought to profess. Ii would be uuneees-
sary TO refer to all the issues that have before
the Board OF Education these last two years. all in
telgent people have formed their opinion OF them
but 1t matters great deal to examine the records
Of some of the School Directors. Mir. Hornbl0wer,
has he not been tie side Of justice and impair
TALLY? If he has. why not re,elect him Politics
ought not to weigh in school matters. Whether
such or such man has been Nominated by s2ch
party ought not to be considered. The question
is simply this Who is the ttest man for the posi-
uon? There are great many points yet to be
considered in the management Of our School De-
partment of which the public, the tax-paying citi-
zens of Sacramento, are ignorant, ana ii new

An Abandoned schooner.

SANTA BARBARA, December 3d-Thursday
morning, while off Cape San Martin, the
steamer Los Angeles sighted small schooner
running under double-reefed foresail. There
was heavy sea running at the time, and a
regular gale blowing from the southwark.
When the steamer was close up to the
schooner they lowered the sail and COM
menced waving their hats, signaling for help,
CRYING out that they were sinking and max
ing water very fast. Finding that they were
in need of help the steamer lowered boat,
took off the schooner's crew and left her to the
mercy of the wind and waves. The schooner
was called Taffie, was of fourteen tons bur-
den. and was bound for San Francisco, there
to fit cut for the fur-seal trade. Captain
John r. Thomas was the principal owner.
The steamer Los Angeles encountered reg
ular gale all the way down, aud was unable
to make any landings except Monterey. Just
before she met the Tatfie small 14-foot
SQUARE stern, keel boat was seen floating bot
tom up. Captain Hannah supposed it was
washed off from the Taffie, but those on
board said they had lost nothing. Some OF
the passengers also stated that they saw
hatch floating on the water. Had it not
been for this schooner in sight Captain Han.
nah would have picked up the boat, to see
what it was, but he supposed it belonged to
the Tafie. After landing her freight at
Santa Barbara the Los Angeles sailed for
Santa Cruz Island for refuge for the night,
knowing it would be unsafe to land at the
southern harbor.

business with him could not talk with him.
| know of no reason for this except from
hearsay, The change was very marked.
Mr.. Schroeder and a number of other young
gentlemen, including myself, were in the habit
Of going together. We were interested in the

About the date mentioned | noticed a very
perceptible change. | had just returned
from the country, and called upon him at
the bank to see him about game recently
played There was a great change In his
manner. / asked him several questions, but
could get no satisfaction out of him. On
going out asked MIR. Pratt for an explana-
ton Of the strange actions.
Odd you ever ascertain the cause OF
this change prior to the time OF shooting /!
Al did not know of the cause.
Cross-examined by Mr.. Montgomery: /
have been at his house not frequently just
once it was about three months before the
shooting. l don't know if Mr.. Schroeder had
financial trouble; neither do | know II he
gambled. As to whether he dealt IN stocks,
can't tell you. He never told me anything
about it, and never dealt with me.
J. c. Pratt testified: reside in Oakland /;
am mining secretary of the Savage com
pany. l know Mr.. Schroeder, and have
known him for several years. From this
point the testimony was similar to that OF the
three preceding witnesses.
VIM. Mcintosh testified: / am a stock
broker, and reside in San Francisco; am a

change. | have known Mr.. Schroeder since
1872. He was In the bank since 1872, when

Testimony same as preceding witness. Icalled
at his place of business. Schroeder was very
much depressed l went up and laid my
hand upon his shoulder, and asked him what
was the matter. He said. Come out and
get a drink, and viii tell YOU he added,

drank, and he said, ''Let US get some more

How TO CURE A HAB1T.-Swim-
ming is advocated in San Francisco
as cure for the opium habit. a
physician gives the history of a
lady, who, from taking morphine to
alleviate the pains Of long pro-
tracted disease, had become q con
firmed opium.eater, and was suf-
fering all the distressing symptoms
of this terrible habit. The doctor
ordered her to cross the bay every
day and take a swim III the Alamo
da baths, which she did, and in a
few months was completely cured.

NEEDS GLUTEN.-Dr. Cutter says
that the increase Of nervous dis
eases decaying teeth, premature
badness and general lack of mus
cular and bone strength are greatly
due to the impoverished quality of
-four now III use, the gluten being
thrown away in order to make the
-four white. He urges the use of
unbolted flour and Of eggs, milk and
butter. He denies that fish is brain
food or that Agassiz ever said that
it was, and claims that butter, being
nearly all fat, is u better kind of
brain food than any other.
