4 MONSTEi. TOW.
ELEVEN Thousand Tons Of Grain to he
Carried in One Tow

lst. Louis Globe-Democrat, May lA.l
"A tow is now making up at tho diff
ferent elevators that will cclipse all
precedent, and provoke renewed dis
cussion concerning the capability Of
the Mississippi river to tioat tho grain
seeking an outlet at this point. This
evening or early tomorrow morning
the tow.boat Oakland will depart with
tow comprising 10000 bushels of
wheat, 100000 bushels of corn, 5000
barrels of flour and miscellaneous
collection of package freight that alone
will equal 500 tons. The tow will
leave here in two sections, guarded by
the steamers Oakland and Norton.
The latter steamer will only go as far
rs Cairo, where the tow will be united
and moved to the seaboard by the Oak
land. In tonnage the freight Is re-
presented by over II 900 tons. To re-
move this by rail would require 81
trains OF l6 cars each, aud the services
OF $50 train hands. by water tho grain
will reach New Orleans I'm six days,
whereas tho railroads centerlnS here
coulI not transport it III less than two
months time, or at the rate OF one
train day. On Monday two other
toWs of the st. Louis ana New Orleans
Transportation Company will follow
with acout 250, ,O0O bushels each. The
Mississippi Valley line is also prcpar-
ing Il monster tow.

THE CAMERA As A DEFECTIVE.

What truth there may be in an item
running its course in the French prints
no one can say, but il Is said that in
tho leading banking houses In Europe
what is called a detective camera Is to
he used. a man of suspicious appear
ance makes his way up to the Cashiers
counter and presents letter Of credit
or II draft. Tho bank clerk is doubtful
us to tho look of tho man. His signal
Llcnt, he thinks, is worth taking,
The clerk, when the mans face Is full
front toward him, touches u little but
ton. Presto, concealed camera Is
brought into play, tho sensitive plate is
exposed, and in an instant tho mans
photograph is taken. Further than
this, this wonderful detective camera
is to play another role.
The head Of the house leaves his
business and confldcs ii to tho clerk.
Some of the clerks go to sleep, or smoke
cigars, or skylark, or do other things
not exactly in keeping with their call
ing, and Off starts IL series of plates,
worked by clock-work, and every ac-
ton of the clerks during series of
.lours is recorded. There might be
even II pleasing, though rather COM
promising, use of this mechanical
camera. With snch an instrument all
the handsOmcst women ut soiree
might be photographed without their
knowledge, and galleries of beauties DO
ut any ones command. Lot IL be
hoped, however. that this camera, if it
is to be used, will only be employed for
thieves and rascnls. That il is perfectly
possible to take such instantaneous
pictures, without II person knowing 1t
admits of no reasonable doubt.

MISTAKES IN LAWYERS WILLS.

The will of the iatc Mr.. Baron Cicas-
by is another instance of the fatality
which seems to attend the wills of crni-
ncnt judges and lawyers. Tho tcsta-
tor, it appears, had only given the
trustees power to retain ''sCcurit les" y"
which il was considered would not nx-
tend to certain investments Of the tes-
tator. 1t is certainly most strange
how exceedingly unfortunate lawyers
have been in their testamcntary dis
positions. Mr.. Sergeant HIPS will
was so confused that but for the respect
due TO the learned sergeant, 1t might
not unrcasonably have been declared
void for uncertainty. The will Of Sir
Samuel Romily was badly drawn.
, Tho wills of Chief Baron Thomson,
Chief Justice Holt, Chief Justice Eyre
Sergeant Maynard, Baron Wood, Mr..
Justice Vaughan, Francis Vcsey, Jr.,
Mr.. Preston, the eminent convcy,nccr
and Lord Chancellor Wcstbury, all be-
came tho subject of cl,anccry proceed
ings. Chief Justice Saunders made &
devise which puzzled his executors
who were all excellent lawyers. Th,
Will OF Bradley, an eminent c0nveyan
Ger, was set aside for uncertainty. The
difficulty which arose from the loss o
Lord st. Leonard's will is too recent
to have been forgotten. But probably
the most glaring mistake was made by
q late Master in Chanccry, who direct
cd the proceeds OF his estate TO DC i'll

Comrades, halt! Tho field is chosen,
Meath the skies of southern May.
Where the Southern roses ripell,

Flutter not at Strite'S increase;
On their pulses lie tho fingers

North, longitude 30 degrees west, hard

that he was surprised at the whale
dashing right into a large vessel in

first saw the big fish she was rolling
and spoutipg water fifteen feet high.
He had not then any idea that she
would charge the vessel, but soon dis
covered that tho whale meant business.

GRANT AS A BAcKBIrER.

General Grant has recently appeared il
a new character, and one which must per.
plex his former admirers considerably. OF
old he was known as the Silent Man, and
though a plausible explanation of his
habitual taciturnity appeared in the fact
that when on rare occasions he did speak,
he never seemed to have anything to say,
there were many who made very liberal
estimates on the wisdom of his unuttered
eloquence. Since the Inauguration OF
President Garfield, however, General
Grant has come out as too-huent instru.
ment in the hands OF the interviewer, and
it is to be especially observed that when
ever he has allowed himself to be thus
recorded be has taken pains to say some.
thing bitter and spiteful or positively
abusive about somebody. There never has
been any warrant for the supposition that
General Grant possessed much delicacy of
perception /; in fact there has been quite
considerable amount of evidence to the con.
trary daring his civil career. Bat it might
have been supposed that man who was a
candidate for the Presidency year ago,
and who was beaten in the race, would
have known better than to dictate dirty
little slurs upon his successful rival to
newspaper reporter. Yet this is just what
General Grant has done with regard to
President Garfield. He appears to be

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

Colusa Sun The hydraulic mines on the
head waters of the Sacramento river is a
comparatively new thing, and they have
not been developed to the extent they
have on the Yuba and Feather, but the
effect is already perceptible. 1t will be
observed from an item taken from the
Tehama TocSin that the river is filling up
very rapidly at that point We had con-
versation with l.. II. Mcintosh this week,
and he assures US that at his place, at the
upper end of Colusa county, the river is
filling badly. The ripples seem to be
lengthening out, the sediment settling at
the lower end of all the ripples. The deep
places are filling up rapidly. The people
above Jacinto will fiud If they do not be-
stir themselves that they will have NO
navigation in two or three years. There
must be concert OF action by all the people
of the valley.
The Lower Lake Bulletin thus glorifies ::
Persons who visit this county once be-
come SO pleased, especially with the
climate and scenery, that they will in
evitably come again, when opportunities
permit. So we expect great many visit
ors this year. The advance guard is
already coming, to try the various springs.
For healthfnl, invigorating recreation in.
deed there is no region anywhere to be
compared to Lake county. It is Just the
place for overworked denizens of the city
to spend their vacations in, and enjoy life
amid the beauty and freedom of the
mountains.
Says the Gait Caste. It is in contem-
plation to have another and cheaper outlet
to San Francisco bay, by the Mokelumne
river. A project is now under considera-
ton by capable engineers to remove the
distractions in the mouth of the river,
thus enabling steamers 10 reach landing
within seven or eight miles of the town.
Should this be effected, Gait viii then
have water transportation to San Fran.
cisco bay, which will be of incalculable
advantage to the grain producers of the
surrounding country, and materially i'm
prove the prosperity of the town.
The Petaluma Argus says of California's
future: Hitherto the great need of Cali
fornia has been small homes. Under the
system of large holdings by those engaged
in agricultural or stock pursuits, it was
impossible for California to become popu-
lous. Bat we feel confident that tie tide
has turned, and that few years will pro.
duce marvellous change in the direction
of giving to our State increased and thrifty
population.
Lake Democrat Our people are full of
railroad talk now there is but one opinion,
and that is, that we need the railroad,
which is sure to make Lake county one of
the most desirable counties in the State to
live in. Then why do not some of our
public spirited citizens take the lead in
calling mass meetings to discuss the ques
tion and see what Is to be done, and find
out who is going to do it.

Point cadets are too numerous, and that

A NV CLAIMANT

A rev Claimant of the Tichborne
estates aud title has made his appearance
in San Francisco, and has already succeeded
in convincing Mr.. Frank Pixley, CT the
Argonam, that he is the person he repre-
sents himself to be. This feat of persua-
sion would doubtless be more satisfactory
II there were any evidence at hand that
Mr.. Pixley understood the case well
enough to render his opinion either way of
any particular value That Mr.. W. H. L.
Barnes should listen to the story of the
new claimant, is not singular, though it
may be regarded as in some respect justi-
flying the conjecture that the impostor, If
he be one, Is at least tolerably well drilled.
Mr. Pixley promises to print the claim
ants story, and We have no doubt that it
will be possessed of some literary merit, to
say the least. At this day, however, i. is
not necessary to be acquainted with the
story which Mr.. Pixley believes, to feel
certain that the antecedent incredibility
of it is very much greater than before the
Orton episode. The entire facts of the
case have in the interval been so
widely disseminated that any clever
rogue who might take i. into his head
to follow in the footsteps of the Wagga-
Wagga butcher would have at his
disposal a mass of suggestions and illumin-
ating facts FAR exceeding anything 0rton
was possessed Of Indeed such rogue has
had ample time to educate himself for the
part of Roger Tichborne, and barring the
test of personal Identification, might very
well be perfect in all other respects-even
to the tattoo marks on the body and limbs.
The knowledge that these opportunities
have been for many years within reach of
everybody, must ID any event render
second claim in this case enormously difIi-
cult to establish. II is scarcely possible,
to begin, to conceive OF any adequate ex-
planation of the silence of the real Roger
Tichborne while the whole world was ring
ing with the narrative OF the Orion trial.
Yet not only this, but every step in the
development, will be challenged with mer-
ciless sharpness, and a man who has been
fool enough to conceal his identity all these
years (supposing for the moment such a
man to be in existence), would only prove
himself a still mo.e hopeless imbeci,e by
coming forward with his claim at this late
day.
