Acts OF tho Late Legislature Which Failed
for Want Of the Governors Approval.

ACts U mo Aoto Ao8Ae1aCur0 w Mon = o1AoU
for Want Of the Governors Approval.
Below we give list Of acts passed at the
late legislative session, which failed for want
OF the governors approval, with the reasons
given therefor:
To amt nd sections SO, 60, 81 and 60 OF chapter
Is, general statutes 1878.
THE VETO:
The amendment proposed by the act will
leave the law in this shape: No appeal can be
taken from the determination of the supervs.
ors when the amount of damages allowed ex-
ceeds 500. No appeal can be taken from the
determination of the county commissioners
when the damages claimed are lc than $780,
large number of cases would therefore be
left without the right of appeal. I can con-
ceive OF no reason why a man who had been
damaged over 500 by laying out town road,
and Why man who is damaged 500 by laying
out a county road, should not be allowed an
appeal.
An act for the purchase of General Statutes
of 1876 and supplement thereto.
The state officers and the several counties,
as far as known, being already supplied with
copies of the General Statutes of 1878, dis
approve Of the purchase of 900 copies as an
unnecessary aed unwise expenditure of pubic
money, especially as continued amendments
of the statutes would render them compare
lively useless long before half the number
would be called for, and they would thus re-
main loss to the state. would have ap-
proved the purchase Of 200 copies to meet
contingencies, but experience shows that
| waste and loss are SIRE 10 result from an over
supply of volumes that are liable to q cOntin.
ued depreciation IN Vi: ue. 1t is better that
such copies as are imperatively required by
counties or towns should be obtained directly
| from publishers.

At very dignified meeting of ply
sicians the question, "Why does hang
ing kill a mani" was discussed in all
its phases. The most learned and
technical phraseology was used to de-
scribe the pressure of the hemp on the
esokhagus, but one more learned than
the rest declared that the real reason
was that the rope was not long enongb
to allow the poor fellows feet to touch
the ground.

upon by minister, who urged him, in
view of his early departure from the

to his emaciated limbs and unstrune

A MEsMERIsT's Trick The French

WV. BRYoN Sheriff Of Ada county.
arrived here yesterday on the hunt of
Henry Mcdonnell, the murderer of
George Myefs, and went on, by stage.
across the Basin. He escaped between
eight and nine O'clock on the evening
Of the l4th, and worked his way out
by beating an iron rod he took from
the stove. and burning the wood on
each side Of the staple fastening the
! lside door. This enabled him to
make bis way to the outside door.
This door, which has paddock, was
not locked, SO be experienced but lit
lie difficulty in getting outside Of the
walls Of the jail. Jerry Plume, the
warden, was ont in town when Nc
Donald made his escape, Heretprned
between eight and, nine o'clock, and
after locking the outside door, which
ne always fastened just before going
to bed !, he retired, and twas not until
next morning that he found. 'the birdo
had tiown. A man on horseback sup
posed to be Mcdonald, was seen to
pass into the hills back Of the fort
between eight and nine o'clock on the
evening Of his escape. The least that
can be said of the affair is that the
escape of this fouleet of murderers,
was the result Of objectionable care
lessness on the part of the warden.
The following reward is offered for the
capture of Mcdonald; The Governor
OF the Territory will pay $500 and the
Sheriff of Ada county $500 reward for
the capture and return, dead or alive,
to the county Jail in Boise City, of
Henry Mcdonald, the murderer of

will go up to Banner tomorrow
to commence operations. They have
not yet decided when the mill will be
started up, as they will not determine
until after taking review of the mine,
what line of work will be pursued.
The property, which was bonded to
| G. w. Crafts and L. G. Abbott last
winter, was not sold when they left,
but sale will probably be made be-
fore long. Col. John Brown saw Mr..
Crafts at Ogden. He said he was Oh

Mumlmincd Bodies

Several sportsmen in pursuit Of game in
Formentera, one of the Balearic islands, sud-
denly came upon . deep excavation. the en-
trance to which was covered with bushes
and underground. They proceeded to ex-
paore it, and having with some difficulty re-.
moved several large stones, found themselves
in . well built chamber Of Moorish .design,
the walls of which were ornamented with IN
~decipherable characters. In the middle Of
the chamber were two tombs Of admirable
workmanship. On removing the metal COW
er by which they were closed the explorers
discovered two colossal mummifed bodies,
one On the right being that Of 8 young Wo-
man, the ether that Of q man. On the head
of the woman was q diadem set with stones,
which, If genuine, are of inestimable value.
Around her neck was a necklace OF large
pearls, two enorInou earrings were attached
t. her ears and her fingers were covered
with rings On the head Of the man was an
imperial crown, and in hisright hand he held
d scepter. Six OF the discoveries remained
To guard the treasure, and the others left for
Madrid to consult the authorities. The in
habitants are said TO have known Of the cav
err, but had never entered it, thinking it
was only d resort Of serpents.
