zoe TiIden,s Family.

The effect of the news of poor Joe
Iilden's death was sudden blow to his
many friends in San Francisco. On the
arrival of the news his two daughters,
who are at school in Sonoma, were SPEND
their vacation at jacksonville. Mr.. G.
K. auckland, of the San Francisco
Merchant, was almost the only person
who knew the whereabouts of his son
Charlie Tilden, whom he had met at the
residence of Mr.. j. H. Drummond at
Glen Ellen. Our former Hawaiian resi-
dent Immediately telegraphed the sad
news to Mr.. Drummond in order that II
might be gently broken to his son. I'm
fortunately the lad was away from his
home, having accompanied Mrs. Drum
mond and her family on a summer
camping expedition of months dura-
ton. Mr.. Drummond telegraphed the
news to his wife, who. hurriedly "broke
camp and preferred not to inform the
boy until their arrival at home. Conse-
quently it was July 18th before Charlie
Tilden heard of his fathers death. Ii
was sad blow to the young man, who
feels the responsibility placed upon his
shoulders OF being the sole support and
care for his two young sisters. 1t will be
gratifying to our readers to know that |
the lad can have home with Mr.. and |
Mrs. Drummond, who are thoroughly |
kind English people, as long as they
live. Charlie is studying viticulture in
all its branches, and intends to adhere
to the business in which he is deeply
and in which he is making
good progress. He called upon Mr..
auckland in San Francisco to thank him
or his kindness in giving him such in
ormation as was in his possession, and
or copies of the Honolulu papers. He
llso called upon Mr.. Davenport, manager
II the Oceanic Steamship Company, to
earn If any of his fathers papers had
'een placed in the safe of the Hotel, and
lot been destroyed. Mr.. Davenport |
Promised to confer with Colonel Mac
arlane, who was expected in San Fran
isco, and who would probably have some
comments, and communicate with Mr..
harles Tilden. The Misses Tilden were

from 1900 TO 1000 miles, is not likely
to be touched by any appeal to his
patriotism.
The San Francisco Chamber of
Commerce likewise forwarded a very
strong memorial in favor of the Aus
tralian line, but Mr.. Villas told them
in reply that he had arranged for a
very much better mail service via
Brindisi and the Suez canal. In other
words, the United States Postmaster
General has deliberately adopted
what is known as the Eastern route,
and thrown the New Zealand Govern
ment overheard, despite its long and
costly fight against the policy of the
English Post Office Department,
which endeavored to break down the
California service by discriminating
in favor of the Eastern route.
To make the surrender by the
United States the more complete, and
the collapse of the direct mail service
to Australia, via Honolulu, almost in
evitable, Postmaster General Villas
has reduced the postage via Brindisi
3 cents per half-ounce letter. That is
to say, he has thrown the cost of the
overland transpOrta ton of the Amer
lean mail across Europe on the
American treasury, while imposing
the cost of the overland transportation
of the Colonial mails in America upon
New Zealand, now the sole contracting
colony, to the tune of over 500, 900
yearly. This is encouraging American
trade and commerce with ven
geance. What the effect of it may be
upon Mr.. Center's mission time alone
will tell. 1t cannot render it more
certain, however. 1t was bad enough
for the United States to penalize the
direct service by this large yearly
charge for land transportation and
not contribute cent towards paying
for the ocean transportation of it's own
mail; but it is infinitely worse to dis
criminate against the direct Austral-
ian mail by cents per half-ounce
letter, extra hostages upon which, in
The case of New Zealand correspond
ence, will be charged by the Melbourne
Government, which has subsidized
he Z. q o. steamers, to the extent OF
pence per half-ounce letter.
New Zealand is now paying the
Pacific Mail Company $1,000 a wear

oortation of its closed mails; and it is

originating in the United States and
orwarded to any address within its
pounds by the Eastern route, the
United States Government at the
'ame time retaining the full postage
lnder its convention with New Zea-
and. This is the exact status of the
Australian mail subsidy business at
he present time.

yesterday morning between 10 and IL
o'clock, by running in four Cinnamon
Tor having opium in their possession.
Taking native officer with him he
visited the Chinese wash houses on

picious manner, and drove him back to
a room where, when the door was
opened, three Cinnamon were found.
One of them rushed to window and got
out on to the roof, and ran along to the
window of another room, but Mehrtens
was too quick for him and he was cap
tured. In getting out of the window he
cut his hands badly with the glass and
also some stovepipe which he upset
while on the roof. Opium was found in
the room as well as pipes, and with the
four men taken to the Station House.

A War Reminiscence.

A rather interesting story of the wal
was told by Joseph r. Perry, at the
national convention of soldiers, which
was held in Indianapolis last summer;
but, as the reports of the session were
necessarily abridged, it escaped publicar
ton at the time.
cit was some time in the summer Of
1851" Mr.. Perry said, .'that the 2lst
Ohio regiment was down in West
Virginia, in the Kanawha region. The
regiment was composed of men gathered
up promiscuously in the Black swamp
region of Ohio. There were one or two
companies of gray-haired men. too old
too bear arms, who had gone into the
service to fight for . principle mot
merely to put down the rebellion, but to
emancipate the slave. They were very
religious, and they would hold prayer
meetings at night. They would pray for
the freedom of the slaves, and that the
negroes might have equal rights with
the.white people. Their prayers were

A petition was presented to the Board
Of Railroad Commissioners. June 18th,
from. Manhattan, signed by N. Green and
800 others, stating that the Manhattan
and Northwestern Railroad Company
was chartered in 1871, and that in 1873
it was recognized as the Manhattan and
Blue Valley Railroad Company, and
constructed by the last named company
from Manhattan up the Big Blue River
to the town of Stockdale, Riley county, q
distance of fifteen miles. Since that
time the company has failed to equip
and operate the same, and in considers
ton of the construction and operation Of
the said railroad, Riley county voted
$l4O, 900 bonds to the original company
in 1871. The petition complains of the
great inconvenience to the people living
along the line of this railroad, on account
of it not being operated and asks that the
company be required to place sufficient
rolling stock upon said road that it may
be operated.

Thunder and lightning!" exclaimed
farmer Porter in establishment. The
nrst speaker, who has won local dis
junction as q scientist, reiterated his
assertion.
J. II. Porter has q farm near North
east, not many miles from where the
Lake Shore railroad crosses the New
York state boundary line. Early this
week some workmen in Mr.. Porter's en-
Ploy came upon the entrance to q cave
nd on enteringit found heaps of human
bones within. Many skeletons were
complete and specimens of the find were
br ught out and exhibited to the natura-
lisos and psychologists of the neighbor-
hotod. They informed the wondering
bystanders that the remains were un-
mistakably those of giants.
The entire village of Northeast was
aroused by the discovery, and to-day
hundreds of people from this city took
advantage Of their holiday to visit the
scene. 1t was at first conjectured that
the remains were those of soldiers killed
in battle with the Indians that abound
ed in the vicinity during the last CEN
fury, but the size ofthe skulls and length
ofthe leg bones dispelled that theory.
So far about $50 giant skeletons of power
f0 proportions have been exhumed and
indications point to second cave east
ward, which may probably contain as
many mo e. Scientists who have ex-
humed skeletons and made careful
measurements Of the bones say that they
are the remains of a race of gigantic
creatures, compared with which our tai
lest men would appear as pygmies.
There are 10 arrow heads, stone hatchets
or other implements of war with the
bodies. Some of the bones are on exhi-
bition at the various stores. One is as
thick as good-sized bucket.

The mystery of George s. Carter's dis.
appearance last September, says an Tx.
bridge, Mass, telegram to the New York
World, has been cleared up by the pub.
lication of little love story with q 70.
mantle sequel in which Carter figures as
the live hero. Young Carter was en-
gagged to young lady here, and prepare
tons had been mad for the nuptials.
On the evening of the second day before
the appointed time young Carter drove
to the home of his affianced and asked
her to take a ride. She made some ex-
cuse for preferipg to stay at home that
evening, and Carter drove off alone in q
sad and detected frame of mind. He
was not satisfied with her treatment of
him, and this dissatisfaction was rather
heightened an hour or 80 latter when he
saw his young lady riding with another
young man with whom he has not been
on very good terms, and of whom he was
rather jealous. He followed the young
couple to know where they intended to
60 and learn how late they would re-
main together. He was satisfied that
his betrothed was not true to him, and
be drew his savings, amounting to ST..
600, from the bank and started for New
York, where he enlisted in the regular
army. His departure caused q sensa-
ton, and for q long time no one could
tell the cause of Carter's departure mol
his destination. At length letter came
from New Mexico telling his parents that
their son was q soldier. He wrote again
asking their help in getting q discharge
from the army, and his anxiety was no
doubt increased when he learned that
his parents had been left $4,000 by the
death of q relative. The war secretary
has not yet replied favorably and is rsth
er inclined to deny the petition on the
ground that enlistments are very scarce
