 Mir. Kuhn's school at Sulphur Spring closed on the llth with, as is usual with him, a public examination. Hs has had good school, well attended, until two weeks past humps interfered, and suddenly reduced the number of pupils from about sixty-fiye to twelve. There were about twenty-five in the examina- tion and they acquitted themselves very creditably. An algebra class in seven weeks time completed equations of first degree and stood a fine exam> inatiou in three unknown quan titles. While that exercise was of much inter- est to some, it is said one gentleman, who was . patron, too, was nearly soothed to sleep listening to the solving of an intricate problem. l suppose he thought algebra good thing. but being In an unknown tongue, so to speak, he was not edifisd or enlightened.
 The health of the neigh borhood is good, humps nearly all gone.

The Prize Essay on Suicide.

The essay which won the prize of 800
offered by DIR. Skene of the Alumni of the
Long Island College Hospital was written
by DR.. Albert J. Leffingwell of the class of
1874 on the topic Suicides in American
Societies. DR.. Armour said yesterday
that it was one of the ablest productions
ever written upon the subject of suicide,
and, by its statistics, most patiently gath
cred. it refuted much of what was now 40
cepted as the standard literature upon the
subject. DR.. Lefingwell, who made medi-
cine study chiefly as an accomplishment,
is to sail on Saturday from San Francisco
for Yokohama, on tour around the world.
Enclosed in an envelope containing his
name was note requesting the Committee
to hold his paper until his return, as he
expected to incorporate it in book. The
essay is, however, the property of the
Alumni Association, and it will probably
be published in one of the scientific
monthlies.

How Long VIII 1t Last.

The Winnemuca Sitter State says !:
Levi & Co. shipped three carloads of
wool from this station to San Francisco
yesterday. In consequence of an ar
rangement of the railroad company
with other roads, wool consigned from
this place to Boston or New York must
60 by the way of San Francisco. AL
though there is no railroad COMPETE
ton here ordinary mortals cannot I'M
derstand why wool loaded here for the
East should be shipped to San Fran
cisco and then back again." This wool
will come back in about four days and
then start East, Levi & Co. being COM
PEELED to pay for several hundred miles
of extra freight and lose considerable
valuable time. Such imposition seems
to be dictated not by sense or reason
but by pure spirit of meanness and
mischief on the part of the Central
Pacific Railway.

THE SAN QUENTIN AFFAIR. :

The charges made by the San Jose Mer-
curry against the San Quentin Management
have not as yet been proven false. Repor,
tiers from various papers have been sent
there to disprove the charges not to inves-
tigate them. The persons accused make
no explanation, simply give ageneral
denial often the manner of persons accused.
The guilless reporters seem to labor under
the impression that if the doings were true
the persons implicated would come out and
make clean breast. The Mercury says
1.-THE Call sent whitewashing reporter to
San Quentin to find out the truth (?) about
the damaging reports concering the War
den of that institution, from the Warden
himself, and from his henchmen, who
would not dare to express an opinion ad-
verse to their master. The reporter informs
rs that Mr.. Ames read the Mercss,y's article
through carefully, and then in the classic
language, which he uses unsparingly on
nearly all occasions, denounced it as false.
He Immediately took up the items seriatim
and admitted most of them to be quail
fedly true. Among other explanations,
with regard to subsidizing the Directors
with costly presents, the Warden states
that the alleged presents are charged to the
Directors on the books of the prison. The
reporter should have asked him how long
since they were charged; and whether
costly articles had not been sent so certain |

bargained for. The one man at the prison
Who could have thrown some honest light
on the Warden's management-viz Mr..
Munger, the moral instructor-wisely con- |
eluded to say nothing, unless required to
speak ont: as We trust he may be ere long.
It is clear that the whitewash brush is be.
