james Lick, the late San Francisco
millionaire, left several very large pub
lie requests. 1t is now charged by the
San Francisco papers that the spirit of
the will has been violated constantly by
the trustees, and that some of tho be-
quests are dead letter. The Chronicle
demands that the Board of Trustees be
changed. That journal, indeed goes 80
far as to intimate that the trustees have
prohted personally from the estate.

Beware of the stuff that pretends to cure
these diseases or other serious Kidney, Uri-

for time and make you ten times worse
Afterwards, but rely solely on Hop Bitters,
the only remedy that will surely and per

moves the cause of disease SO effectually

Here" The jury then rendered a YER
dict of acquittal rs to Turner and Peck,
and of guilty as to Miner and Rerdell.
As TO the others they were unable to
agree. On the objection of Merrick
that Peck had not been arraigned. and
consequently could not be included in
the verdict, the foreman repeated the
report as to the others, but left ont the
name of Peck. The jury were then dis
charged, and Henkle and Williams, for
Miner and Rerdell respectively, gave
notice of a motion in arrest of Judgment

Sunday Struggles.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Sept. 10.-The
great excitement in this city GROWING.
out of the attempt to bring about: the
enforcement of the Sunday law and the
%boycotting actions of the brewers is rap
idly extending all over the State. and
the fact becomes more and more evident
that the questions growing IL of the
contest will figure al an early day in the
POLITICS of the State. The more violent
excitement outside of this city is now
reported at Racine, the second city in
size in the State. At that point the
matter of closing saloons on Sunday,
and enforcing with the utmost strict
ness the law against selling liquors to
minors, is absorbing a large share of
public attention. The Scandinavian
churches have held mass-meetings, fol-
lowing in the wake of all other denom-
nations, and have presented the Mayor
and Common Council with copies of res
olutions demanding action in the matter.
The matter had about come to a focus,
and a proclamation was expected,
when the Saloonkeepers become aroused
and turned the tables by vowing tocloSe
every other place of business if an at
tempt was made to close them, and inn
mediately began boycotting all interes-
ted in the movements, from the bakers to
liverymen, merchants, and others. They
threaten to close every livery-stable and
cause every book-keeper, manufacturer,
or any one else caught laboring on Sun
day TO be arrested if the matter is pressed.
The Common Council is afraid to act in
the matter, and the utmost excitement
prevails. Reports of a similar state of
affairs are received from others cities in
the State.

Egypt's Enigma.

ALEXANDRIA, Sept. 10.-Four of
Arab Pasha's officers surrendered this
morning to the British picket at Ramleh.
They state that fully 800 of Arabs men
would do likewise did they not fear the
British would fire on them.
In the engagement yesterday, besides
the Egyptians who advanced from Tel
el-kebir, p force of 1900 men crossed
the desert ON Salihiyeh and operated
on the rigl 'ankof the British. These
troops continued the engagement after
the Tel-el-Kebir force had retired. They
had a Krupp battery, which they hand
led well. The British heavy cavalry
pushed them hard, and finally captured
krupp gun, with its team and
equipment, and a green standard which
was taken from the hands of u dead
standard-bearer belonging TO one of
Arab Pasha's crack regiments. The
Salihiyeh contingent were routed, but
the other reached Tel-el-Kebir in fairly
good order. The British loss is COM
p%aratively small, perhaps eighty in all,
killed and wounded. Arabs plan was
well devised, but required better troops
to carry it out, although the rebels
fought better than they have heretofore.
The officers say that only 600 rebel
troops are now at Kafr-el-Dwar; most
of them o out. Many are DESTROYS
of surrendering, but are forcibly pre-
vented.

Hubbell's Henchmen.

WASHINGTON Cor: The following
notice, in large letters, confronts every
visitor who enters the Interior Depart
ment building.
Canvassing and soliciting absolutely prohibited
in this department. Employees will report any
violation OF this order to the nearest watcl man.
Notwithstanding this notice, collector
from Jay Hubbell's committee spent
most of Thursday in calling upon the
clerks, |endeavoring to gather in their
unpaid assessments. He had q list of
employees, with their salaries, and the 2
per cent. carried out in an additional
column, and stated that he had the au-
thority of the Acting Secretary to make
the canvass, and thereby hangs a tale.
The first collector that Hubbell has
sent INTO the Interior Department for
years bobbed up serenely in one of the
down stairs rooms the other day. He
was promptly turned over to a watch
man by the clerks in the room and
straightway conveyed before Acting
Secretary Joslyn, to whom he said he
had a letter of introduction. The watch
man explained that the collector had
been arrested for soliciting in open
violation of the regulations of the de-
partment.
THAT was right" said Secretary
Joslyn, and he reiterated this statement
even after he had read the letter of in
PRODUCTION signed by Secretary Hender-
son, of the Republican Congressional
Campaign Committee, commenting the
collector to the good offices of the Sec
rotary of the Interior. So there was
nothing for the collector to do but walk
quietly down and out with the watch
man by his side. Within the hour, how
ever, the Secretary of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Committee
Henderson, came rushing and putting
into the Interior Department. He talked
awhile with Acting Secretary Joslyn
and left. Within two hours the collector
aforesaid was going quietly through the
pockets of the clerks, with none to him
der or make him afraid. 1t is due to
Acting Secretary Joslyn, however, to
say that he gave all the clerks to under
stand that they could do Just as they
pleased about paying their voluntary
contributions

sion to-day on routine work. The re-

The anxiety expressed by the Demo
cratic press and Democrats generally,
lest the Republicans should nominate a
weak candidate in the third congress.
sional district is truly touching. Such
disinterested' philanthropy it has not
been our good luck to witness for many
a day. They do not care to elect a con.
gresham, oh no; the milk of human
kindness rises so high in their bosoms
that they would only go through the
motions, while their republican brothers
captured the cheese if they only nom
mate the right man. 1t is too touching
for earthly use.

1t is certainly proper by all Legitimate
means to endeavorto break the bourbon
supremacy in the South, but when it be-
comes necessary in order to do this to
pick up such a man as Chalmers, of
Mississippi and furnish his ammunition
chest out of the Republican treasury a
good many Republicans will feel as if
bourbon supremacy better be left undis-
disturbed. There is no evidence at hand
to show that Mr.. Chalmers is any winter
than he was last winter when unseated
BY a Republican congress. Ii he was
a rascal then he has not shed his skin
since. and if half of what was said then
about the gentleman was true the less
any respectable party has to do with
him the better. Ii is announced how
ever, that Mr. Jay Hubbell has hoisted
this load Of iniquity onto the back of the
Republican party in order to break the
bourbon lines in Mississippi. Mr.. Hub
bell and his committee are an anoma-
lous body at the best aud at present not
in very good odor- They plainly viii
not increase their standing with the
rank and file of the party by schemes of
this nature. 1t is we II established fact
that smut cannot be touched without
deilement. The fewer Chalmers we
have the better for the party. Even ii
Mr.. Hubbell and his committee should
be dropped over board with their protege
the loss could easily be borne

seem as if they might be able to furnish
campaign documents free of tax, espec-

on which the collection was based.
