Special to the Inter-Ocean-l
Washington, Jan. 12.-Senator
Davis. OF West Virginia, has had a
consultation with Secretary Sher-
man with regard to bis bill abolish
ing what are known as "pernia-
nent annual appropriations" that
is, appropriations made from time
to time by Congress for permanent
purposes-authorizing the Sccrc-
tary Of the Treasury to devote
certain sums every year to par
ticular object, SO that Congress
would not have each year to go
through the forra Of passing a law
for the purpose. This system have
saved q great deal Of time, but at
the same time many questionable
measures have grown out OF It, and
the expenditures that have been
made under this head have acc''n'
| ulatcd SO that last year they
amounted IN the aggregate, to over
$4,000, 900. Senator Davis who
has some harmless hobbies, but
| who. on the whole, is very use
ful man, has been investigating
this moss.grown accumulation Of
eighty years, and finds that great
many OF tho "permancnt smlua'
appropriations that have been
made during that time could %
dispensed with without injarytc
the pnblic service; and he has Q
bill providing that they shall By
abolished, except that which re-
latcs to the payment OF the inter
est on The public debt. This ht
exccpts, because to repeal y might
be construed as su attack upon th'
public credit, and, what Is mor'
important. the interest fund woul'
be left exposed to tho caprice 9

dorses the bill for this purpose

game which has been the National sport Of
England for hundreds Of years. Although
there are some really good cricket clubs IN tn.
Rast, and the game Is played a good deal in
San Francisco, the sport has never been really
popular in America from the fact that the ma
tsrials are costly, the game complicated, and
to an uniatsr.sted audience, not as Exciting to
watch a. baseball. The play however admits
of some 6ne combinations unknown in base
oal, and ~ ~ more scoring hits. 1t is neat.
scientific ID graceful, requires NOR. brain
work - muscle, and is net half so tresome
70 n ayers as baseball Men whe play
cricks antil they are gray, still find some
thing new in the game every time they grasp
q bat. 1t bears the same relation to baseball
az chess bears to checks -; and on the other
side Of the water such men as Byron, Dickens,
Thackeray, Gladstone and Napoleon LII were
enti Elastic devotses Of the sport. 1t is pro-
osed to form a club in Carson and these wish

IMPURE BREATH.

Among all the disagreeable consequences
that follow the decay OF the teeth, an i'm
pure brea h must be the most notifying
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it is
the mostinexcusiblean and offensive in society !;
and yet the cause of it may easily be re-
moved by cleansing your teeth daily with
that justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant
SOZODONT. 1t purifes and swestens the
breath, cools and refreshes the mouth, and
gives pearl-like appearance to the teeth.
Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should
cleanse their teeth with SOZODONf, as
it removes all unpleasant odors of the weed.

THE PRODIGAL'S RETURN.
NO talk YET OF YArrED CALI BY Tx b. vs.
THB DORDsLEf PROPOSE TO AAVE AN IN
VESTIeATION FIRST.

Yesterday morning, at 10 o'clock, the
County Commissioners assembled and waited
for the arrival Of Sheriff Hill. He failed to
put III appearance and alter waiting about if
teen minutes the Board took a recess think
ing perhaps that the Sheriff might turn
up sometime during the day By aeon moth
ing had been heard of him and, neanwh bile,
his bondsmeA stood aboat the streets discuss
ing the situation.
EFT To BRUTE.
When it was believed that he had actually
left the county his creditors determined to
levy on what effects he had left, and the FIRST to
come to the front with an attachment WAS
Hr. E. J. Parkinson, proprietor Of the Tn-
bune, the paper which has often claimed the
honor Of having elected him. Mr.. Parkinson
attached the Sheriff. horse Stoaewall Jack
SON and his buggy for note Of $500 and in
terest, dated Feb "a, 1879. The ether At
tackment suits brought against Hill were
one by D. N Brule fer $500, money loaned
Hill May 9th, and one by B. F. Small for
$3.50, balance due for beard At the Arlington
House. The Brule attachment MAS levied on
the horse and buggy aiss, aud the Small at
tachnent was levied ON an organ in Mrs. Hills
roam at the hotel.
WHAT NIGHT HAVE BEEN.
The fact of Hills accounts being short vas
known on Tuesday last and On Wednesday
Pete Cavsnaugh, one If the bondsmen, la
company with E. J. Powers went to Virginia
City to look for him. He was found in bed
in street lodging house and when reused
from slsmbers asked what was up. When
the nature Of the aondsmens mission was e1-
planned he laughed and said he would be down
in the morning with the coin. Cavanaush
re piled: whats the use of talking like a fool
you can't raise the money in the nSrnins."
After some parley it was proposed that Hill
should return and turn the office oyer to tbs
oondssen, who would stick by him and, by
taking the receipts of the Office, straieh,en
,ut the deficiency aud all would be we'll
Hill said all right and still insisted that he
could be down in the morning. This he |
allied to do and the County Commissioner
began the examination of the books and also |
vent through the safe to see how the cash |
tood, finding the deficiencies already report
ID. A further examination showed that he ,
sas also owing money 10 the creditors OF some
bankrupt estates.
HOW THE ACCOUNTS STOOD.
