beyond doubt whether the suspicious that
served as an excuse for the murderous deeds
were we'll grounded. Unfortunately. this is
generally the disposition OF men who commit
murder They are not men OF clear heads. but
men who nurse unreasoning suspicion and
jealousy until they become moro blind instru-
ments OF passion.
The bathing season has not long boon open,
but already reports OF drowning accidents are
received from the seashore and from inland
rivers and lakes. Such accidents arc generally
the result Of carelessness either OF the bathers
themselves or OF those whose business II Is TO
see that proper precautions are taken TO pre-
vent them. Keepers Of seaside bathing houses
arc inexcusable II they neglect to furnish every
possible safeguard for the protection OF thoir
patrons. In all large crowds such as throng
the seaside bathing places thero are persons
who will rccklessly rush int tho most immi-
mont danger unless they are restrained. Among
the most prolific causes OF drowning accidents
aro attacks OF cramps. which usually result
from bathers disregarding the most ordinary
precautions as to their physical condition.
Ignorance and heedlessness never reap richer
harvest than in the summer bathing season.
The election OF Mr.. GLUcK OF Buffalo %
Alumni Trustee Of Cornell University seems to
DO takon by tho friends OF President WHITE as
vindication OF the present management OF
tho university. As q matter OF fact. Mr.. GLUCK
owes his election almost entirely to local
votes. In tho first ballot. In which tho votes Of
absent graduates wore taken by proxy
Mr.. GLucK received 100 votes and Mr.
HALsEY 243. almost majority. Mr.
HALsEY represents what is probably tho
feeling Of a majority OF the graduates
feeling OF dissatisfaction with tho manner
In which the affairs OF the university have for
some time been conducted. AS he failed to get
o majority In the first ballot. a second ballot
from which tho proxies OF the absent graduates
were excluded. had to be taken. and Mr.. GLUcK
was elected. though he received but SO votes.
The election. therefore. merely shows that a
small number OF persons about Ithaca and In
western New York are satisfied with the pres
ent condition Of things at tho university. The
first ballot shows that larger body OF gradu-
ates IRE not satisfied. The election was by no
means q triumph for President WHITE.

A BEAR IN a BAR-RooM.

While Watts mensgerie was being trans.
ferTed from the railroad station to oakland
Garden yesterday morning, one of the bears
managed to unfasten the door of his cage,
and, effecting an escape on Ruggles street.
tumbled out of the wagon in which he was
being drawn, and numbered into neigh
boring drinking saloon. Several patrons
of the establishment made wild break
for the door on seeing the beast enter,
thinking possibly they had "got EN-
,ain, but the bear paid no attention to
them, and made straight for the bar. The
bar keeper, whose back was turned 1t the
time, faced around on hearing the noise,
WHEN he saw the animal Standing on his
hind legs, his forepaws resting on the edge
Of the bar, his head bobbing up and down,
and his mouth wide open, displaying re-
markedly fine set of white and glistening
teeth. The dispenser of the ardent doubt
less had served many hard customers in his
time, but never one like this and he
dashed through an open window to the
sidewalk, shouting, as he alighted. " You
can have him. | don't want him !" For
some little time nobody dared enter the
place. though the bear stuck to his posi-.
tion, "mopping and moving" aud execut-
ing sort Of solemn dance on hia hind legs.
Finally, the keeper of the animals came
back and tried to get the beast out but
his efforts were in vain. Urea Major re-
fused alike entreaties and commands Then
8 happy thought occurred to several per-
sons at enoe, snd they shouted IN unison,
% He wants a drink J" The keeper imme-
distely seized upon the idea and put it in
vrac{;ce PourIDc ont a hountiful libation
of beer, he offered it to the bear, which
Tapped it up greedily, and then, his thirst
being sssusged, the big animal suffered
himself to be quietly led back to the wagon
and his cage Boston Herald.

Director Burchard says This estimate
of the gold product of California in 1882
is nearly 81, 500, 600 higher than the est
mate of the ststisticians of the Pacific
coast but after careful revision Of the
reports from mines and districts, and of the
statements of the amount and sources of
the gold received at the San Francisco and
Carson Mints, am constrained to adhere
to the figures have given.
The value of the gold coined at these
Mints during the year was $29 929 525, of
which s., AL $50 was gold bullion belong
ing to the Government in those Minis at
the beginning of the year in excess of the
amount st the close, leaving $27, 4S7, $50
coined from bullion deposited dul log the
year.
OF the latter, SOC. 43l was United States
god con, old plate, jewelry, etc, and
81, 504 004 foreign gold coin and bullion.
Assuming that all of the foreign gold coin
and bullion imported during the year at
San Francisco, amounting to 81 74S, 766,
came to the MINIS and was also made into
coin, there would remain 800, 7l2, 306 gold
of domestic production used in the coinage,
which must have been deposited at
the San Francisco and Carson MINIS
from the States and Territories sending
their bullion to those Mints. From
the Mint records and the reports from
private refners, it appears that all of the
domestic bullion received at San Francisco
and Carson, except $50. 776, came from the
Pacific States and Territories, !. E., Cali
fornia, Nevada, Oregon, Alaska, Arizona,
Idaho and Washington, and that these
States and Territories sent TO the Atlantic
coast also gold bullion to the amount of
S6I2, 524. 1t is evident, therefore. that
the production of the Pacific States and
Territories should equal the gold bullion
used in coinage that must have been re.
ceived from them-S22, $50, 540-and the
amount they sent to the Atlantic sesboard
-s6l2, 524- total of S23, 243 064. Their
total production, as estimated in the gen.
eral table, is placed at So, so, 900, show
ing, II the official reports are to be relied
upon, that more than one-hslf million dol.
lars of gold bullion was delivered at San
Francisco and Carson from the Territories
bordering upon the Pacific States and
Territories or that the total production OF
the latter during the year must have been
greater, rather than less, than the amount
| have credited to them.

Production of Gold and silver in California
in 1882

The forthcoming report of H. c. Burch'
ard, Director United States Mints, for
1882, will show the following exhibit OF
products of California:
There was, during the year, dininutioa
in the yield of the precious metals OF about
81, 800 000 from the production Of 1881,
but the State has maintained the second

MINES in Il counties are reported to have
levied I2l assessments, and called upon the
stockholders for 81, 547 467, as against

Of the State is estimated at Sl7645. COO,
of which SIG. SOC. 600 lie gold. and SS45. eco

ErcHNG-Etching is the art which,
of all, most commends itself to the ama-
teur. It might almost be said that an I'M
interesting etching, ike an embarrassing
baby, does not exist. a man, if he can GO
nothing else with an etching needle, at
least writes down his own character, and
thst so naively, so unoonsciously, that he
must perforce be amusing. And though
to be q great etcher it is necessary to be G
great draughtsman, though it may be
asserted with confidence that there is not a
single great etcher living still it is open
to people Of ali degrees Of power and of
skill to do more pleasing work in this way
than they probably could in any other.
They give themselves away, so to speak,
but in the most charming manner. Every
slip of the needle-p point is an involuntary
confidence emphasized without intention
by the acid bath Critic.

Oh, MJyBBaCk!

That's a common cxpres-
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will SO quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Browns IRON BITTERS, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max

THE STAR ROUTES.

Mr. Bliss Argument not yet Concluded.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-Mr. Bliss argument
in the Star route trial this forenoon turned
upon petitions connected with various routes,
and Miner was made the object Of q particu
larry bitter attack. He showed that two routes
had been increased aud expedited at great ex-
pense by Brady solely upon the recommenda-
tion Of Messrs. Dillon and Billings, the rail-
road presidents. Yet Brady had pretended
that he was fighting the railroads In the inter-
esis OF the Star routes. Dorsey had procured
railroad passes from those gentlemen for his
agents, and it was clearly a case OF scratch
my back and I'll tickle your elbow
Mr. Bliss then took up the evidence relating
TO the routes and rapidly reviewed H. passing
over the main points with mere mention aud
bringing ont in strong relief what he described
as the more fiagrant offences. or an order for
increase IN the Trssalmas-C Clifton route he said

gressional inyestig aiion caused cleaning up
