The Last RItes Ce,ebra,ed.

SAN Francisco, October 3d.-The funeral
of Theodore Clancy, late editor of the
Santa Barbara Press, took place at Calistoga
to-day. His remains were brought to this
city last night on the steamer Orizaba, and
were this morning forwarded to Calistoga per
express, accompanied by J. P. Stearns, pro-
prietor of the Press. The funeral services
were conducted at the residence OF MIR. Will
son, Glancey's father-in-law, and were at
tended by many residents of Calistoga and
number from other places, including Mr..
Stearns, w. H. Mills, manager of the Sac
ramento RECORD UNION, and w. NJ Web
ster, General Agent of the California Asso.
ciated Press, all of whom had sustained init
mate journalistic relations with the deceased.
The services were conducted by Rev. James
Mitchell, of the Presbyterian Church, Calls
toga, who delivered a feeling tribute to the
intellectual and moral worth of the deceased
journalist. The remains were then placed in
hearse, and followed by line of carriages
occupied by relatives and friends, were con
veyed to the cemetery at st. Helena, eight
miles distant, where the last rites were cele-
brated.

THE SAN CARMEL MISSION.

The Bulletin, writing of the old Mission
Church in the Carmelo Valley, at Monte
rey, suggests that the church itself
" might we'll be taken in charge by the
" State and protected as monument of
g the early history of this coast" We
think the Bulletin is mistaken as to this.
The old church belongs to the see, and the
ecclesiastical authorities who hold the title
to it are not in the habit of surrendering
any of their real property. The State has
no authority in the premises, and cannot
have any unless the Roman Catholic
Church will sell the property. As there is
no instance on record of such transaction
We are justified in regarding it as ex-
tremely improbable. The Church might
perhaps De induced to allow the old Mis-
sion to be restored, or to be protected from
the weather, but this is probably as much
as it would care to concede, though there
can be no question that the condition in
which the place now exists is most dis
creditable to its owners, and reflects not
little upon their piety, when we consider
the associations of the Mission.

INDIANA.

1t is impossible to form trustworthy
Judgment concerning the probabilities in
Indiana, the statements of the contending
parties are so utterly incompatible. At
present both sides are claiming the State
with about the same show of confidence,
and at the same time both sides are hedg-
ing by limiting at suspected frauds All
that is certain is that the Democrats have
the State now, and have had it for several
years. 1t follows from this that if the
Republicans win it they will have
to take something from their op-
ponents, while if the Democrats win
it they will only have to hold their
own. And this simple statement shows
how absurd are the predictions that Dem
Ocratic victory in Indiana would practically
indicate the election of Hancock. 1t would
in fact do nothing of the kind Indiana is
not, and has not been, counted as Repub-
hcan State in this campaign, but as
doubtful State, and very doubtful one.
The Republicans have no right to expect to
win it, and therefore they have no reason
for disappointment if they do not win it.
They can win the fight without Indiana,
and it is quite probable that they will
have to do so. The Democrats have
the inside track in that State, and they
have so much to stake that they
certainly will neglect no means of securing
victory. If they win, as we expect they
will, the great fight will still have to be
made in New York. If, however, they
should lose Indiana, it is plain that the
Republicans would be very greatly en-
couraged, and with reason, for this would
indicate a distinct and most significant
falling of in the strength of their oppo-
nents. At present, however, the safe and
rational expectation for Republicans is that
Indiana will give Democratic majority,
and if it is L reduced one there VIII be cause
for rejoicing and for increased confidence.

DEMOCRATIC LAwLEsSNESS IN NEW
YORK

Within the past fortnight no less than
three Republican meetings and professions
have been assaulted by Democratic roughs
in New York and Brooklyn. No possible
cause has existed for these displays of ruff
fianism, and it would seem that their only
object could be to establish the kinship
between the Democratic bulldozsrs North
and South. These New York blackguards
are no doubt as disposed to laglessness "a
their friends on the other side of the line.
The mob in New York has in times past
proved its brutality, cowardice and licen-
tiousness too often to leave any room for
doubt on this head. What the New York
Democrats expect to gain, however, by
stoning and clubbing Republican process.
sions in that city, is more difficult to I'm.
derstand for whereas the Southern
roughs have a distinct purpose to subserve
by their rufianism, in the suppression of
the Republican vote, the Northern rowdies
and their leaders are too sensible to i'm.
agine that they can play that game. On
the contrary, they must be well aware that
every instance of violence on their part
will stimulate and consolidate the Repub-
lican vote, and that for every stone they
throw now ten adverse ballots will be de-
posted againt them next month. 1t is
not, therefore, to be supposed that their
leaders countenance these outbreaks, but
if, as is apparent, the leaders cannot pre-
vent them, the fact affords an additional
argument for the defeat of so lawless
party.

life would have been spared. Ii the hus-
band and friends of Mrs Hamilton had
acted on the indications given by her
former conduct, and by her VIGOROUSLY hon.
icidal disposition, as shown in her attempt
to kill the girl Winkleplek some months
ago, her husband would not now be
corpse, and she wo nd not be in prison,
charged with his murder Society never
knows what serious evils it is inviting
when it weakly neglects to cure minor
ills. The quarrelsome, violent man is
allowed to have his own way. His lawless-
ness is ignored or hushed up. And pres
emily he develops into full-fedged
murderer, and the lesson of the duty
betrayed is emphasized by the sacrifice of
good citizen. The cowardice and false
tenderness OF society in matters of this
kind too frequently are responsible for
tragic consequences. In the case of Gray
the immediate responsibility undoubtedly
rests upon the politicians who had not the
sense or the decency to refrain from NOM
mating for responsible office man whose
record made the choice gross insult to
the community and disgrace to the party.
But society had tolerated this ruffiau, and
had permitted itself to be bullied by him,
enough to insist upon the stern execution
of its own laws, it has to lament the muir
der of one of its best members.

TWO MURDERS, AND THEIR LESSON.

A few days ago journalist was muir
dered at Santa Barbara for having done
his duty in condemnipg an unfit nomina-
ton. After the ASA ssin had committed
the crime it was stated that he was noto-
rious rowdy and bravo, that he had
repeatedly been engaged in personal alter.
cations, and had many times drawn deadly
weapons with homicidal intent. In this
city. last week, a wife shot down and
killed her husband, aud then it became
generally known that the woman had not
only threatened to do this very thing, but
mad actually attempted it once before. In
both these cases the catastrophe might have
been avoided had the warnings which
were given to society been needed in time.
If the man Gray had been treated as he
deserved, if he had been prosecuted and
sent to Jail for his former breaches of the
law, it is probable that no convention would

this morning smoke was seen issuing from
the Recorders office in the Courthouse. The
vault door was found unfastened, and o num-
Der of books which had been piled up behind
the door were on fire. On the floor were four
tin cans bound in felt cloth, and what is sup
posed to be a torpedo six inches long. There
was also satchel of charcoal atthe door OF the
vault. Had the plot been carried out the
Court house would have been blown to fin

THE AUTHORS CARNIVAL.

The Authors Carnival at San Francisco
is over It has been successful from pc
cuniary standpoint, and it is claimed, and
with some FEASIBILITY, that it has had a
distinct educational use. Certainly it must
have compelled those who took part in the
tableaux to acquire some information con-
corning the works from which the charac-
tiers were taken, and the public also must
have gone to some extra pains to compre-
bend the meaning of what they went to
see. 1t is therefore probable that wider
acquaintance with many good and whole
some authors has been reached through the
Carnival, and that many people have thus
been led to acquire knowledge which they
perhaps would never have gained in any
other way. On the other hand it may be
questioned whether these realistic repre-
sensations of favorite characters from pop
ular romances and other works is not
calculated to produce almost as much dis
appointment as culture. We are inclined
which one forms of these characters from
the authors description are not much more
satisfactory than any naturalization of
them can possibly be. 1t is for instance
not to be questioned that the impressions
which Shakespeare produces in the unas-
sisted perusal of the closet immeasurably
exceed in force and fulness the most
elaborate and skillful effects of the stage
With the long line of authors whose genius
is not dramatic the effect of the attempt to
reproduce their characters in dramatic
forms must be still less satisfactory. The
persons who are dressed to represent these
characters can at best be little more than
lay-fgures. We recognize certain pecu-
iarities of costumes, bat the real charac-
tiers remain unattainable, and SO the gen
eral result of the experiment is disappoint-
ing, however conscientiously it may have
been made.

no evidence of being practical joker. AS
