MORE WOUNDED.

Two men were carried into drug store at
Court and Walnut, seriously if not mortally
wounded. Very evidently the backbone OF
the mob is broken. The two men who were
last wounded and who were taken into King
bach's drug store at Court and Walnut were
Emil Pfeiser, tailor, who rooms above the
Voltsblat office, shot while crossing the street
on his way home, and
Vim. Cooper, of New Richmond, Ohio,
aged 21, shot while on his way to take boat
home from the theater.
THE MILITIA DEMoRALIzED.
| The militia seem to be getting entirely
demoralized in their firing. The Gatling
gun on Court street, in charge of company's
A and B, Fourteenth regiment
from Columbus, is being used.
The druggist above mentioned
telephones, that they are yet firing upon the
corners, and the mob is entirely dispersed.
He says that half the bottles on the shelves
in his store are demolished and other of his
stock and fixtures destroyed.
There are as many as $500 or 5000 sol
diers now in the city and stationed al
various points.

Shortly after the following proclamation

THE OPINION OF THE MOB.
The determined men who composed the
mob of Friday night, think it
was gross mistake and the people say open
ly, it would have been better to have given
up the criminals who are being so carefully
guarded, and let them receive the well
merited punishment, which it appears cannot
be accorded by the proper legal process in
this county. The presence of the military,
and constant arriving of reinforce
ments, seem to add to the
mob's determination to hold their ground
rather than to exercise an intimidating eff
feet. 1t is now said and with some degree
of foundation, that the killing of Captain
Desmond, was not due to the awkwardness
of the boys who compose the militia. He
was shot by one of his own men in one of
their charges upon the mob. But mobs are
tickle, their feeling cannot be guaged, while
their expressions have been as just now in
dicated, their action has been different.

THE GOVERNOR ALIVE TO THE SITUATION.
COLUMBUS, o., March 30.-Governor
Hoadly's official advices from members of
his staff in Cincinnati tonight are such that
he has ordered every military organization in
the state to report to Cincinnati Immediately,
seventeen regiments in all and five batteries
| The governors advices, when he retired at
O'Clock this morning, were such that they
would be needed, and he ordered all to be
| ready for marching orders. Most
| of them we're ordered to Cincinnati during
the Gay, and the rest tonight. Railroad
officials have been called on to run special
| trains for their transportation. Troops have
been run into this city during the day, on
orders to rendezvous here, and this evening
they were dispatched to Cincinnati. The
governors Office has been crowded all day
with counselors and those helping to issue
orders and answer hundreds of dispatches.
1t is the first general appearance of war here
since 1865. The governor has also
ordered all state ammunition
to the seat of the riot, and
borrowed lot of supplies and equipments
from the United States barracks, having ex-
hausted all his military forces in the field.
He has his headquarters in the Office of Gen
eral Manager McCrea, Pittsburg, Cincinnati
81 st. Louis railway, where wire is kept
free for him to communicate with the moving
troops, and those in command at Cincin att
with the troops called from this and other
p ir is. There is fear of contagious outbreaks,
owing TO the unprecedented excitement,
reported from different quarters. All rail
roads are giving military trains precedence
in right-of-way. Berner has been resting
quietly in the prison all day. The gates had
to be closed against the public for the chapel,
owing to the multitude of curiosity gazers
that appeared No violence is probable here.
1t is very quiet, but the night guard at the
prison is small, and there has been some
talk of easy access to him.

DISPATCH To COLUMBUS.

At 1890 Colonel S. H. Church, sent the
following dispatch to James McCrea, mana
ger of the Panhandle Railroad company
&" There is much quieter spirit
prevailing among the people in the streets.
We rather think that the demonstrations for
the restoration of law has broken the back
bone of the mob. The crowds are small in
number, and while they are bitter in their
opposition, they are afraid to provoke con-

A Man-Eater.
lsonora union.pemocrat !

Mike McGowan, the MAN Eater" a
well-known sagebrush terror, landed in
town the other day. 1t is Mikes usual
habit when he gets in strange town, to
get full of whisky and then indulge in
the playful sport of chewing peoples
noses and ears off. This pleasant prac.
tice has given Mike considerable trouble
In his checkered career. He has been in
every jail in Nevada, and has been
dubbed out of nearly every saloon in
that State. Once when he was at the
zenith of his fame as a cannibal, Major
John Dennis, then connected with the
Eureka Sentinel, met him at the depot
in Elko. Mike was just drunk enough
to be in the right mood for lunching off
mans ear. AS soon as he saw the
major he ran up, exclaiming; "Howdy
do, Major Dennis" The major was a
man of prompt action, having gained
his military fame in the White Pine
Indian war, to which he led his troops
in a blackboard, 80 he drew a revolver
with his left hand. cooked it and pre-
sented it at Mike, while with his right
hand he shook the paw of the man
eater, saying in his blandest tones as he
did so, Very well, thank you; how are
you getting on, Mike?' Thus the
meeting passed off quite pleas antly, and
to this day Major Dennis is firmly con-
vinced that only his presence OF mind
saved his magnificent Roman nose from
mastication. Mike must have reformed
or found the whisky supply too short,
for he did not exhibit any cannibalistic
propensities while here, and soon shook
the dust OF Sonora off his feet.

Mushrooms.

NJ. Renaudot, the proprietor, has the
extraordinary length of over twenty.ono
miles of mushroom beds IN one great
quarry at Merry. and sixteen miles in
cave at Frepillon. Other important
caves are mentioned at Moulineaux,
Montrouge and at Vitry in Picsrdy.
Our distinguished horticulturist, Mr..
Wick, says the mushroom is very ac-
commodating plant; we have seen them
growing in old tubs, in out.of the-way
corners of old sheds,in abandoned green
houses, on the shelves in stables, and in
every case giving apparently good and
healthful crop. All that is needed for
success is temperature from fifty to
sixty degrees, some fresh horse manure
and little spawn. Having procured
what fresh horse manure is needed mix
It well with about one third of its bulk
Of good loan, and you are prepared to
make your beds in whatever place you
prefer. Ii you determine to form beds,
make them narrow-certainly not more
than five feet in breadth and about fif.
teen inches in height. The material
must be made compact by beating down
as evenly as possible. II under cover,
the beds may be made fiat on the top,
but il in the open air they should be
rounded to shed the rain. After the
beds have been made a week there will
be considerable heat produced by the
fermentation of the manure. Bricks of
spawn shonld have been secured pre-.
viously, and they can be sent every
where, postage or eXpressage free, at
about thirty cents pound. Break
them into pieces as large as walnuts and
insert in the beds just below the sur.
face, about ten inches apart. One
pound of spawn is sufficient for q
space two by six feet. Ii there seems
to be much heat, do nothing for y
week or ten days until it somewhat
subsidies, Then cover the bed with an
inch or more of good earth, pressing it
down with the back of a spade. 1t is
not likely, in a large bed, water will be
needed at all; but If the material should
appear very dry water lightly with
warm water In small beds or pals or
any thing of the kind it is probable wa.
ter will be needed once or twice. Mush.
rooms will begin to appear in about six
weeks after planting the spawn and can
be gathered for three or four weeks. In
gathering take up the mushroom eutire,
leaving no stem in the bed, and placing
little earth in the hole made by
its removal. When the crop is gathered
cover the bed with little more earth,
beat it down gently and give pretty
good moistening with tepid water, and
in about month more another crop will
be produced The Caterer.

Expensive Lobbying.
fpall Mall Gazette. /

i is known in a vague way that enor.
nous sums are spent annually by railway
companies in promoting and opposing
private legislation, but few who are not
experts will be prepared for the huge
exaggeration which a return lust issued
discloses. In the decade from 1872 to
1882 the total amounts to nearly four
million sterling, divided as follows:
In promoting bills, f2, 502, ,5j7; in op.
posing bills, f807, ,0Gs; general le.
cal expenses, f6l5,0s7; total, c..
"a, ,7I2. Gas companies have also
spent freely, their total amounting to
1850, ,935. In the case OF gas and water,
only small portion was expended in
opposing bills, Scotland being nil with
respect to gas, and ireland in the same
category as to water. The grand outlay
is no less sum than f4,664,s74, and
this, it must be remembered, does not
take into account the expenditure OF the
oppositions promoted by private and
other parties to the schemes OF the rail.
way, gas, and water companies, 30 that
the total cost Of this class OF private
legislation must amount to even much
larger sum.

IT Ia pleasant to know that while Los
Angeles was for so long time without
n theater which deserved the name. she
Is now about to profit by the great delay
by the completeness and splendor Of the
edifice. Col. Gray, in the erection Of
the Childs Opera House. is exerting his
6ne mechanical and architectural genius
to the utmost. Tkere Is no exaggera-
ton In saying that Los Angeles will
shortly be able to boast Of the posses.
sion Of as fine temple Of Thespls as ex-
lists anywhere on the Pacific Coast. Its
internal arrangements will be exqnisitely
beautiful, unique aud original, this &C.
complished designer having determined
to incorporate the semi-tropical features
Of the country in his work. An ample
court will admit Of the display Of the
gorgeous flora and vegetation for which
Southern California Is noted. The palm,
the orange and other features of the
tropical and semi-tropical zones will be
encountered and admired by the estheiic
seekers after refined and elevated amuse.

put upon the new theater or rather the
Corinthian capital, to employ an archi.
tectural simile--by the engagement Of Mr..
yoegtlin, the famous artist and designer,
TO paint the drop curtain, scenery and
other pictorial properties. The genius
Of this gentleman has, fortunately for
the well being of the people Of the Pa.
cific Coast, been already most gracefully
and acceptably employed in the theatrts
OF San Francisco. His dedication of his
great talents to the work Of decorating
the Childs Opera House is guarantee
that thorough artistic outcome may be
relied upon. The liberaliiy Of Mr.. O.W.
Childs in seeing that, to the last mnutia,
the Thespian temple which will bear his
