LONDON. Sept. l9.-The Times. in trac-
ing the antecedents Of O'Donnell, finds
that he 10 As years Of age, q native OF
Mericlsddy County. Donegal. Ireland, has
been to America several times, had served
in the American war. lived for some time
in Philadelphia, and kept q public house
on the Canadian border. He invested his
funds In silver mines and Fepian bonds
and lost his money, returned to Ireland in
May, and f~requented the company OF Irish
Americana in Londonderry. He carried .
revolver. and was considered . strong
Nationalist, but was opposed to the Invln-
cibles. He denounced Carey when the
latter turned informer. and declared he
would NOT shoot, but would burn him by
inches. He vent to the Cape to seek his
fortune, because he considered America
played out. He had never seen Carey be-
fore taking passage. and bad no idea the
ipformer was aboard the steamer Kinfaun's
Castle when he embarked. The defence
will probably be that Carey tried to shoot
the prisoner, who wrenched the revolver
away and used il to protect his v life.
II lie stated that O'Donnell's brother, who
is living in ireland, will endeavor TO OBJ
| tain the services Of q Mr.. Sullivan, M. r.,
| to conduct the defense. The friends OF
O'Donnell ridicule the idea that he went to
the Cape for the special purpose Of killing
Carey.

Gov. Stoneman has removed four Of
the State Prison Directors and appointed
their successors. OF the latter two are
Democrats and two Republicans. AL
the removed Directors were Republicans.
II Stoneman had followed the example
set him by his predecessor he would have
taken all the new Directors from his own
party. The non-partisan character of
the appointments, says the Stockton
Herald, will deprive our esteemed Re-
publican contemporaries Of the oppor-
tunity they expected to fall upon the
Governor and rend him. As il is, they
will feel it to be their duty to pump up
some p~erfunctory wrath. But there will
be no answering indignation evoked from
the people. There is . very general and
correct conviction that the Directors
made their positions as profitable to
themselves IS they possibly could, and
did not scruple at any means to do it.
They should have been removed by Gov.
Perkins on the evidences presented to
him. Gov. Stoneman has simply per-
formed = duty that his predecessor
shirked for partisan reasons.
The Governor has apparently made an
admirable selection in making up the
new directory. In standing and charac-
ter the new men are vastly superior to
those whom they supersede.

A Mountain Alligator.

William Blackheath, who has Just re-
turned from six-months sojourn in
Arizona, has brought to the Comstock
the skin of what he, for want of bet
ter name, calls a ella monster, but
which is evidently that of a saurian of
a different species. The skin now
measures seven feet from tip to tip,
and it has evidently shrunk some
inches in drying. Though about the
color of an ordinary ella monster. the
reptile is evidently 2 kind of inland
crocodile, or, more properly, cayman,
as 1t had not the Tebbed feet of the
crocodile.
The strange saurian was found in a
small valley in the Wheatstone noun
tains. When alive it stood two feet
high, and its body, just back of its
fore-legs, was over three feet in cir
conference. The creature was as saw
age as bulldog. and as full of fight
As viper. 1t was found by the dogs
of Mr. Blackheath and partner. When
the men arrived at the haunt of the
reptile-tO which they were attracted
by the fierce and peculiar barking of
their dogs, three in number-they
found that one dog had already been
killed and the Others were ba ily cut
up and cove ed with blood. The
creature displayed such activity and
was so dabolically vicious that the two
prospectors feared to 90 near it, being
armed with nothing better than pros
pecting pix and a shovel with short
handle
Finally the thing got one of the
dogs by the foreleg, and finding that it
held on like a terrier, with no sign of
loosing its hold. Mr.. Blackheath ran
forward and struck his pick into its
head. Even then the reptile held on,
and it was not until it had been struck
several blows with the pole O. the pick
that its jaws relaxed and it gave up
the ghost. When the dog was released
it was found that the foreleg had been
broken at point about two inches
| above the knee.
Mr.. Blackheath says he has met
with several creatures known as ella
monsters that were two feet and two
and half feet in length, but never
before or since saw, OF even suspected
the existence of one so large as that
whose skin he possesses. 1t was a
surprise to all the white men in that
section, but some of the Indians as
serted that far south in the Sierra
Madre mountains they had seen some
that were as large or larger.
Unfortunately in laying the saul
rian, Mr.. Blackheath's only idea was
to have the hide tanned and made
into boots and CATERS, therefore he
did not preserve the feet otherwise
the skin might be stuffed and mounted
by taxidermist. He says the teeth
OF the creatures were over an inch in
length, We're sharp as needles, and in
shape resembled the teeth of a shark.

A Thrilling Adventure.

A party on the Rocky Mountain di.
vision of the Northern Pacific railroad
have had a thrilling adventure which
they would not care to repeat. They
were on an open car which was stand
ing still on an exceedingly steep grade,
Suddenly one of the gentleman saw
that train of cars was dashing down
upon them at frightful speed. 1t con-
sisted of an engine weighing $4,000
pounds, and eight cars heavily la len
with iron. There was no time to get
the party off the car, and to remain
still was almost certain death. With
great presence of mind one of the gen.
tlemen loosened the brake of the car,
which at once began to run down tho
hill. 1t was now race for life, and
the ladies Of the party were almost
wild with fright. Soon the freight
train caught up with the car, but the
velocity of both being almost the same,
little damage was done, and at last all
reached the bottom of the decline in
safety.
