MAN AND Two HORSES KILLED.-The
following is from the Carson Tribune of
April 22d At about half-past IL o'clock
this morning, as local train No. 6 neared
the second crossing of the railroad between
here and Empire, man driving four
horse wagon was seen making for the cross
ing. The train was somewhat behind time
and was travelling much faster than usual,
as on that straight road it had perfect
right to. The engineer blew his alarm
whistle at the proper time, but the man
was seen to whip his horses as if with de-
termination to cross The leaders had got
over the track, but although the brakes
were put on, the locomotive had too much
Roadway to avoid a collision. and it ran
into the wheel horses killing them, break
ing up the wagon and unfortunately in
stantly killing the unfortunate driver.
The train was stopped as soop as possible
and the body of the poor fellow brought
into Carson. The body was recognized by
Mr.. Gree as that of John Parent, rancher
in Mason's valley.

BRIEF REFERENCE.

Some one is amusing himself by sending
many citizens anonymous postal cards de-
handing the return of overcoats, hats and
canes alleged to have been exchanged in
places the disclosure of which would involve
the parties in scandal Perhaps the writer
does not knew that he is liable to prosecution
for his funny efforts. At least fifty of these
cards have been sent through the Postoffice

ing pistol from his pocket, and fred one shot.
He was standing near Fifth and J streets,
and after walking up the street a short dis
lance, fred another shot in the air. The first
shot attracted the attention of officer Smith.
who, having gone off duty, was retiring in
his room near by, and when the second ex-
plosion occurred the officer swooped down on
the smart young man and carried him to the
City Prison, despite the protestatiOns OF sew
eral interested companions of the offender.
At the time of the shooting the street there
abouts was thronged with people, returning
from the Odd Fellows celebration, and the
offense was reckless and inexcusable, though
another young man who was present declared
it was all accidental. He was released on q
deposit of $50, made by a friend.
POLICE CoURT.-In the Police Court yes.

ODD FELLOWS ANNIvERsARY.-ElD Dorado
Capitol, Schiller, Eureka and Industrial
Lodges, [. 0. o. f., met last evening in the
Temple, and held a celebration in honor of
the sixty first anniversary of the order. There
was very large attendance. Ell Dorado
Lodge first held its regular meeting, after
which speeches were made by leading men,
bers, sentiments offered, "reminiscences re-
vived, and the general and local history of
the order reviewed by pioneers in the brother
hood. This kind of exercise continued until
after II o'clock, when an adjournment was
had. The occasion proved enjoyable to the
members in attendance, and the brotherhood
renewed its vows of fealty to the order and
love for its principles over the altar of another
year of its history.
ABOUT BuLs.-The Governor has approved
the Debris bill and the San Francisco Char
ter bill, as will be seen by the regular report
elsewhere. He has not yet signed the County
Government bill, and it is understood finds
serious objections to some of its provisions,
and is now considering it in detail. 1t has
been supposed by many that the Governors
last day in which to approve bills was yester-
day. This is an error. He has ten days ex-
elusive of Sundays, and this gives him until
-to-morrow-inclusive.

Planets in MAY.

Jupiter is morning star, and by far the most
important object for observation among the
planets during the month. 1t cannot be too
strongly impressed upon the minds of students
of the stars, that the four great planets are all
approaching their perihelia, and bringing
about condition of planetary affairs that has
not occurred for two thousand years. Jupiter
reaches the goal first, arriving at perihelion on
the 25th of September. Such is the eccen-
tricity of his orbit that he will then be forty
six millions of miles, or about half of the
whole distance of the earth from the sun,
nearer to the great central fire than when far
thest away. He is also at that time almost at
his nearest point to the earth, coming into
opposition with the sun eleven days after peri
helion. The earth is then directly between
him and the sun: but the earth is far
thest from the sun in July, and will be at
considerably more than her mean dis
tance in September, when Jupiter is forty
six million miles nearer. 1t may easily be
seen that when at opposition the earth is at or
near her greatest distance, and Jupiter at his
least distance from the sun, the two planets
will be almost as near together as they can be.
giant of the system will soon give evidence of
the fact in his increasing size and brilliancy,
being brighter than he has been for nearly
twelve years. The difference will not be so
marked as in the case of Mars under the same
conditions, for nearly four hundred million
miles Of space intervene between the earth
and the huge planet even when nearest. Ju-
piter, therefore, will be source of intense in
terest during the coming months as he ap-
proaches and recedes from his perihelion and
opposition. The great problem of the effect of
his approach upon the mysterious spot-period
of the sun will be first in Importance. Many
astronomers scout the idea Of such an influence
Many more find nothing improbable in the
theory that the approach of huge mass to the
sun should produce disturbance in his blazing
elements, evidently in commotion from some
cause, while the near correspondence in time
between the maximum of the spot-period and
tho revolution of Jupiter favors The argument.
No one doubts that the disturbed condition Of

instructions to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. The other delegate, John 1. Gordon,
will scarcely be able to stand the pressure
which is being brought to bear upon him,
and it is more than probable that the two
votes of the Twenty-sixth district will be
cast at Chicago on the first ballot for Sena-
tor Blaine. The moral effect of one such
victory as this is worth the instructions of
whole Southern State delegation.

SENATOR Blaine made an important gain
in Pennsylvania day or two ago, says the
Philadelphia Press, which has not been
noted in the telegraphic dispatches. The
Twenty-sixth Congressional district was
almost unanimous for him before the meet
ing of the State Convention of February 4,
and if possible has been more so SINCE that
body disregarded its wishes, appointed two
delegates to represent it at Chicago and in
structed them to vote for General Grant
Every county in the district has resented the
arbitrary action of the convention, Craw-
ford in a popular mass meeting, Mercer at a
primary and Butler through its committee
The counties proposed to go further and
elect delegates to Chicago, but this action
will now scarcely be necessary. Last Satur-
day the County Committee of Butler again
met and secured from its chairman, Mr..
Thomas Robinson, who is also National
delegate, public pledge in writing that he
would obey the wishes of the people of the
district and vote for and support James G..

THE New York Times thinks: "Whatev-
er perils may await the issue of Mr.. Sher-
mans energetic struggle for the nomination
of the Republican National Convention,
they will not come from his own State.
Though the popular pulse at Columbus
seems to beat most strongly for Blaine, there
could be no question about the overwhelm-
ing preponderance of Sherman's strength in
the convention"
