where DO They Go To.

People frequently ask how it is that
Carson, a town SO near Lake Bigler, is 80
poorly supplied with trout. The Appeal
says that II half the stories are to be be-
lieyed. each man. m and child who
goes TO the Lake catches an average OF rs
pounds OF trout per day. Where do all
these fish 20 to? A man may hunt all over
town and seldom find ono for sale. The
probabilities are that the Ash arc merely
caught for amusement. and thrown back

are weighed. Very few ever get as far as

what N Scientific Writer Says
About the Craft.
Wrist Drop occasionally overtakes the
printer in the East. The craft ia never
afflicted that way on the coast. Neither
are the habits Of the typos out this way
anything like the customs Of their Eastern
brethren. On this coast, and especially on
the Base Range, the printers are all teeto-
talers. But the following dissertation from
a scientific source tells all about their ills
and trials and misfortunes in less favored
sections:
Printers work at night. That necessi-
tates gas and frequent adjournments to the
nearest house Of refreshment. Printers
are generally thin, pale and fond of to-
bacco. Their nervous energy is given to
the service of their employer, and they
rely too often upon stimulants Tor a icti-
tious strength, which wastes as often as 1t
is renewed. The foremen complain OF
pains in the chest-they bend over so
much. Proof-readers lose their eyes
and have buzzing in their ears.
Compositors get sore fingers and
cricks in their backs. Strange as it lmay
appear aitHouSu thcy ~ ~ law
they are not always late risers. But when
they get up their faculties are sleepy. They
are liable to headaches, dyspepsia, and
weak backs. Their physical fibre fails to
keep pace with their activity. As years
go on they become feeble. Little by little
they degenerate from experts to muffs, and
then they nave to leave their places on the
daily press and seek employment on the
less exacting weckIies or trades papers.
There are many ONE type settlers, but
as they generally marry young it is impos-
sible to say what effect the trade has on
them. One OF the worst features OF type
setting is what is known as the wrist
drop" A mar may be driving away at a
great rate, when, without warning, his
wrist will give way and his hand fall help
less. In other words, he's "leaded." All
workers in metal are liable to this curse,
especially when they are careless in their
personal habits. Frequent, careful wash
ing is absolutely necessary, and when fol-
lowed up is a sure preventative.

Concealed

Some of our esteemed contemporaries.
says the Sacramento Record Union, have
been smitten with a conviction-wrought
in them by Guiteau's crime-that the
only way to prevent assassination is to en-
act a national law against carrying con-
cealed weapons and have 1t vigorously en-
forced. The motive Of this suggestion is
praiseworthy, but the matter OF the sug-
gestion has, we fear, but little value. If
crime could be stopped by legislation and
public administration it ought to have dis
appeared long ago. But unfortunately
experience shows that no laws can prevent
men from doing wrong altogether, and
that the best legislation can only effect q
comparative diminution of crime. Laws
prohibiting the carrying Of concealed weap-
ons have been verv often enacted, and
there is no doubt as to how they operate.
Experience has proved that they nave only
disarmed good citizens. Bad citizens ig-
more them, and find their advantage in so
doing. Such laws, in fact, only tend to
render the better elements OF society more
helpless as against the worse elements.
The ~law-abiding man leaves his weapons at
home. The law-defying man goes armed,
and is therefore better able to rob and
murder the p~eaceable citizen. Nor is it
possible to enforce such laws with any
completeness. Even an attempt to do so
would involve a subsection OF the people
to inquisitions which Americans would
find quite intolerable. 1t would be neces-
sary to give the police authority to stop
and search everybody, and as a matter Of
course such authority would be abused.
In fact, no law of the kind could be en-
forced, and no law of the kind could pre-
vent any Of the dangers to which society
is at present exposed. Assassination, after
all, is extremely rare in this country, and
it is probably not worth while seriously to
discuss the need of special legislation
against that form of crime.

The Sexes nj Harvard.

There is trouble at Harvard College on
account of the admission Of girls asstudents,
an innovation that was recently made. 1t
appears that the college has large library,
of authorities and sofa seats, where the
students go to refresh memories upon
certain points in their studies, and the
complaint is that girls will get down some
work of which there is only one copy in the
library, and when young man comes in
and desires the same book he is obliged to
wait until the girls get through with 1t or
sit down and look II through with her. On
a recent occasion q venerable professor
entered the library and was surprised to see
no less than six girls with books that young
men were DESTROYS of perusing, so DESTROYS,
in fact that the two were seated together
eagerly scanning the pages when the pro-
fessor entered. The sight fairly caused the
glass in his spectacles to bulge out, and it
would be mild expression to say he was
shocked. He at once inquired the cause of
this extraordinary desire for information
that had so suddenly sprung up, and the
young men told him plainly that there
must be duplicate copies of the books pro-
cured, so that the girls could have one and
the young men the other. He said he
would attend to it the first thing in the
morning, and then the old Puritan glared
around the room at the girls, who, poor
things, were sitting with their noses close
down to the pages Of their books, and were
studying as though their hearts would
break. Then he coughed couple of times,
vaguely, and then he had the decency to 60

order is made without prejudice to the
right of the defendant to ask for further
order for an additional number of witnesses.
Mr.. Scoville furnished the names of ten
witnesses to the clerk, but declines TO
make the list public at present. His reason
is that some who expected to be brought
here as witnesses have already gotten out
of sight, and Others, ifthey knew that they
were to be summoned, would disappear.
After service has been secured on them, he
has no objection to the publication of their
names.

False Representations TO u CONNER
ciRl Agency.


The eighty-third volume of New York
Reports, just published, contains decision
by the Court Of Appeals of much practical
interest and Importance to the mercantile
community. 1t appears that the plaintiffs
had sold goods on credit to n firm on the
report of its financial standing obtained
from a commercial agency. This report,
which was based on information given to the
agency by the defendant, a member of the
firm, was found to be false. Thereupon an
action for deceit was begun against the
defendant. The latter claimed that he
was not liable because the representations
rs to the standing of his firm had
not been made directly to the
selling house. The Court Of Appeals
hold that this is no defense, and that
an action can be maintained against per-
son making false representations to COM
mcrcial agency by any subscriber to the
agency who has been thereby deceived. ''Ii
person." says the opinion, furnishes to
such an agency willfully false statement
of his circumstances or pecuniary ability
with intent to obtain standing aud credit
to which he knows he is not justly entitled,
and thus to defraud whoever may resort to
the agency, and, in reliance upon the false
information there lodged, extend credit
to him, there is no reason why his liability
to any party defrauded by those means
should not be the same rs II he had made
the false representation direct to the party
injured"

Power to Remove n PoIiccmcn.

The suit of John T. Mitchell against the

Court by the plaintiff. Mitchell was ap-

dismissed June Z, 1877. He denied the
power of the Commissioners to remove him
and sued for his pay up to the date of filing
the suit, August o. 1879.
The Court in Banc yesterday, in the case
of Anglcm against the District, q similar
suit, decided that the Board of Police Com
missioners did possess the power to remove
an officer of the force, and sustained the
Judgment of the court below in giving Il
verdict for the District. This decision made
it useless to carry this case any further
consequently it was dismissed.
