A HIDE THIEF.-The Gait Gazette saws !.
1t is an old saying and true. 1.-The fox that
runs long Is caught at last, and so appli-
cable to the case of Tom White, arrested
last Wednesday for burglary, that the
adage is very expressive in this connection.
Last Monday night White effected an ex-
trance to the slaughter house of Is. A.
Farmer & Co., of this place, and stole eight
steer hides, took them to Sacramento and
sold them TO Knight d Co, hide dealers,
for S24. Early Tuesday morning the hides
were missed, and Mr.. Farmer telegraphed
to Sacramento and Stockton hide men to
apprehend any person offering the stolen
property for sale. Knight of Sacramento
answered back stating that he had bought
the hides and gave a description of the thief
sufficient to satisfy those acquainted with
White that he was the man. Constable
Smith Immediately set out for Sacramento,
arrested White, took him for identification
to the man who bought the hides of him,
and at this juncture of the proceedings
White admitted his guilt and confessed TO
the theft of the hides. The Constable re-
turned to Gait Wednesday with his pris-
oner, gave him berth Wednesday night
in the calaboose and took him before JUS
tice SPRINGFIELD Thursday morning. The
defendant plead guilty of burglary, was
held for trial in the Superior Court, and
having been unable. to furnish the bond
exacted, he was taken to the County Jail
for safe-keeping to await his trial. There
is evidence sufficient to connect him with
several robberies committed in Gait for the
past year or two.

MINING NOTES.

The mining troubles in the Wood river
section promise to be amicably settled.
1t is reported that petroleum has been
discovered near Delta, Shasta county.
Good gold diggings have been discovered
on small tributary of Beaver Inlet,
Alaska
The recent coal discovery IN Whatcom,
w. T., is proving to be of better quality and
in larger quantities than it was supposed at
first.
The water in the Carson river is reported
very low for this time of the year, and fears
are entertained of a scarcity for the mills
during the summer.
Many of the mines of Josephine county,
Oregon, will sooE be compelled to shut
down, unless timely rains should come to
their relief. Water is getting light there
Salt Lake is excited over the finding OF
rock in the foothills adjacent to the city,
which assays 81 200 in gold to the ton 1t
IS lntlmated'that the ground is sailed, but
| old miners say not.
Mining operations i'll Coeur de Alene are
opening up very encouragingly. The
weather is fine and the water abundant.
The largest nugget ever found in the mines
was discovered in Porter and Henderson,
claim last Thursday. 1t was inches long
and weighed 194 ounces
The steam hosting apparatus at the
Black Diamond mines, near Seattle, w. T.,
was put in operation last Tuesday morning
| for the first time. BY the end of next
| week 1t is believed coal can be put into the
| loading bunkers. 1t will require three
| months yet before the output is sufficiently
| steady and large TO enable regular ship

MARROW EscAPE.-The Fresno Erpositor
of Thursday last has the following refer
ence to an accident to State Treas
urer Oullahan at that place Mr..
Oullahan attempted to board the south
bound emigrant train as it was pulling
out He had an overcoat on one
arm and gripsack in hand, and with the
other he grabbed the rail at the front plat
form of the rear car, and tried to spring ON
the steps, but the train was going quite rap
idly, and he lost his balance and fell He
recovered himself only to fall again, and
he was dragged some distance, tearing his
pants from one of his legs finally he fell
between the edge Of the platform and the
track, and the car passed over him. He
fortunately preserved his presence of mind
aud remand perfectly quiet, and thus pre-
served his limbs and most probably his
life. The least movement would have
caused the wheels to catch him. Those
who saw the accident stood in breathless
suspense, expecting nothing less than to
see him crushed to pieces, Agent SWAN saw
Mr.. Oullahan running to catch the car, and
feeling certain that he could not do so and
fearing an accident ran after him to re-
strain him from making the effort, but did
not overtake him. The train was stopped
and Mr. Oullahan helped on board and sent
on his journey.

proposes also to gather here examples of
the products of the State, testimonies of
the capacity and quality of our soils, our
mines, our forests and our waters, and
make here a permanent repository for
view by intending settlers, before whom
all material facts regarding the State
and its advantages and capacities
may be laid in minutest detail.
1t proposes to arm itself also with
such appliances of the laboratory as to en-
able it to apply tests and make analyses as
needed and such other chemical research
as it may desire, and to add in time an OBJ
servatory sufficient for the instruction of
all who may choose to avail of it. That
such an institution will enlarge the oppor-
tunities of the children of the city, enter
tain its citizens, attract strangers, add to
the desirahility of residence in Sacramento
and enhance trade interests in fair de-
gree, goes without saying. The simple
question is, will the people enable the Asso-
citation to accept the gift? Within four
months they must aid it to success in rails
ing 100000 The money is not to leave
Sacramento. 1t is no payment out, but a
| change of investment. 1t cannot be i'm
paired or in any way diminished. 1t is to
be set aside as an enduring investment for
the yield of means to insure the perpetuity
of the magnificent gift, and the carrying on
of the work outlined. The money cannot
be raised except an unselfish, broadly phil
anthropic and high public-spirited feeling
animates this people There are firms and
tunes here, and owe about all they have to
the town in which they live" who can,
if they so will it, raise this money in a
weeks time. If they doit, unincumbered
| by new conditions and trammeling pro-
visions, they will find it the best invest
ment of years, and the act will remain
an enduring monument to their broad
public spirit. But the sum had better
not be raised and the generous gift be re-
turned to the giver to dispose of elsewhere,
if any other than free and unfettered con-
tributions are made. There can be no
Gripping conditions. Trust must be re-
posed. We believe it will be. We believe
| the Museum Association to be the peo-
pies association, the work the peoples
work, and work that will never cease,
bat ever expand and yearly enlarge its
capacity to elevate the tastes of the peo-
pie, inform their intelligence, stimulate
youth to high aims, cultivate the moral
sense and contribute to the development
| and prosperity of the State.

LOST HIS MULEs.-A novel wager was
decided at the fair grounds in Sherman
yesterday. The bet was that mule could
not move sack of salt ten feet, the mule
being at one end of n 200-foot rope, two
inches in diameter, and the salt tied to the
other end, the mule not to waver more
than two and a half feet either way from
straight line in pulling, and if the sack
was not moved in the first pull, three trials
were to be had. The stakes were S125
against pair of mules. On the first pull
the sack of salt was moved four feet. Con-
siderable money changed hands on the re-
suit The loser turned over the lost mules
with grace and dignity beftting the oc-
casion.-[ Galveston News.

whatever. On the contrary, we may
reasonably expect it to deteriorate The
tule basins are constantly enlarging, the foot
hills are being constantly denuded, and their
surface-wash correspondingly increased the
population discharging its sewage into the river
is constantly multiplying. While in this way
the degree of pollution will certainly be in
creased, it will probably be still further in
creased by diminutiOn in the volume of river
water proper. As the mountains are denuded
the river will assume a more torrential charac-
ter; in the wet season it will be extremely high;
in the dry, extremely low. There will be more
filth and less water to dilute it.
For two months of last year this water was not
potable in Il hygienic sense, and for three weeks
it was positively revolving. During this time it
had a fshy taste and odor more sug-
gestive of medieval medicine than of
modern drinking water Of course. it is use
less to argue with the man who says this water
is good enough for me- We may either
ironically agree with him or kindly recommend
him to course of electricity.
AT its best our river water is offensive to the
eye; at its worst, it is disgusting to every sense
with which kind Providence has endowed us in
selfdefense against disease. l am in favor OF a
better water supply on esthetic, on economic
and on hygienic grounds.

of Plympton caught on the idea, and some

a fortune. As far as l can see and remem-

SALMON. The salmon packing season
opens on the 1st day of April, and, under
the new law passed at the last session of
the Legislature. continues to August 31st,
inclusive Heretofore the close season be-
gan August 1st, and continued until Sep
tember 1st on the Sacramento river, under
which rule what is known as fail packing
has been carried on. Fall packing has al
ways been disapproved of by standard
packers, for the reason that the fish taken
after the close season were soft and poor,
and the product tended to lower the stand
ard of Sacramento river fish. Fall packing
will now be done away with While it is
possible that the fish taken in August may
not all be as good as those caught earlier in
the season. there is little danger of getting
soft fish, because they are taken as fast as
they come from the sea into the stream.
Under the new law salmon cannot be taken
during the fishing season between the
hours of sunrise Saturday and sunset on
Sunday, thus affording thirty-six hours for
the fish to pass up stream each week. As
to preparation ON this river, very much less
is being done than in former seasons, and
it is probable not much more than one half
the canneries on the river will open. The
cannery of Bradford u Co. and Sacramento
River Packing Company, at Collinsville !;
King, Morse Il Co., at Black Diamond, and
George W. Humes cannery, at Rio Vista,
certainly will not run. 1t is thought
Hume's cannery at Benicia will do very
little, if anything this summer.
