Special OdOrs of the Orange.
San Francisco Chronicle

The orange tree usually cultivated
for the perfume of its flowers is the
Bigarardier, the fruit of which is bitu
ter and non-edible. 1t is species un-
known IN America. But of all kinds
of non~producing orange the Berga>
mot is really the best. Its essence is
the softest, the most exquisite. The
color of the essence is a clear green,
with yellow as it gets older. It is the
heaviest of all the purfumes of the
orange flower, and the most evanes-
cent, unless care is taken to change
the flask or other vessel from time to
time, when it is found to preserve its
odor the longest. 1t dissolves III alco-
hol at 90 degrees. The essence is ex>
tracted in Sicily or at Reggie, opposite
Messina, by the following method
The men Or women habituated to the
operation take in the hand piece of
the fine bark, which they compress
with two fingers. In the other hand
they hold a sponge with which the oil
is taken off by repeated Applications.
When the sponge is saturated the oil
is expressed into a vessel ready to res
ceive it. The essence of bergamot is
employed in medicine to strengthen
the body or correct the odor of often
sive ingredients. It enters into vari~
GUS oderous compounds and pomades,
and toilet waters are made of it. The
bark is taken little before maturity,
dried, and sold for variety of prep
arations.
Perfumers use it as the base of per-
fumed powders. 1t is considerably
used for preserves and bonbons.
Orange leaves, especially those of the
bigarardier Or non-edible orange, flre
gathered and used for infusions. The
trees are not despoiled especially for
this purpose, bat only the branches Or
twigs cut off in the process of care and
cultivation. They are dried in the
shade and then put on the market. In
1848 dried orange leaves were sold at
20 francs to two hundred pounds.
This utilization of a product which
can not be used in the present state of
the orange culture in California is
another illustration of the extreme
economy of the French agriculturist,
which permits nothing to be lost.

Comfy tells us that he who tells a
lie at first, then tries to hide it makes
it two" That is just the fix the Times
is in at the present time. 1t never
mentioned " July once in its article
yesterday. 1t simply said &C the gentle-
man alluded to has thus far drawn
Sly. so, less than Republican member
of the Council for the same time. !"
These are it's exact words. Had it said
July we would have looked over the
record back to July for the truth or
falstty Of its assertion. We stated
that Democratic member had drawn
$50, so salary for the month OF April.
The Times said Republican ber
had drawn $3.50 more in the same
time. I'VE searched the record and
found this Democratic member, $50.
80, Republican member, S43 so Demo
cratic member 81 more than Republi

Times claims the Republican has drawn
more than the Democrat, and we hav'
a SIG so lie, leaving off the admittet
error of so cents, leaves lie worth S2G
The Times might as well understand
that is one OF the things that cannot b
hidden, without destroying the salar
record.

THE nopination of Mr.. Conrad by
the Republicans for Mayor of the city
grows in favor with the people. There
is no dissenting voice amongst the Re-
publicans, and many Democrats favor
his election. The people want digni-
fed, able, honest, efficient man for chief
magistrate OF the city. They see all
these leading traits in Mr.. Conrad, and
they will elect him. Though there Is
no special objection to any of the gen
tlemen named for President of the City
Council, there seems to be general de-
sire amongst Republicans that Mr..
j DIN Hare, Mr.. Conrad's opponent fol
the nomination for Mayor, will submit
to become candidate for that office.

irrelevant, but tho Bishop. with quiet
smile, said he would comply with the
request If allowed half hour TO pro-
duse the necessary papers. This was
allowed. The Bishop left the court
room, and reformed in twenty minutes
with document, which he proceeded
to read with great solemnity-all the
more solemn as the paper was all in Latin.
The plaintiffs lawyer pretended to take
notes industriously, bowling his head
once in a while as il in acquiescence,
and seeming perfectly convinced at the
end. When the reading was finished
he announced that the Papal Bulls just
read were entirely satisfactory, at the
same time apologizing for his expressed
doubts. The next day it leaked out
that the Bishop, unable to find the Pa
pal Bulls at his residence, had brought
10 court and read Latin essay on
Pope Leo the Great, written by one OF
his ecclesiastical students and for
warded by the president Of the college
as specimen Of the young mans skill

AS AN AUTHOR AND ORATOR.
Archbishop Gibbons is the author of
one volume, "The Faith of Our Fa-
TIERS" which has met with a larger
sale than any Roman Catholic book pub
lished in America. More than hun
bred thousand copies have been sold
since its publication in 1877. The
work is made up chiefly Of simple SER
mons on the doctrines Of Catholicity
delivered while on the mission in North
Carolina.
As pulpit orator the Primate has
many superiors in the hierarchy. He
has neither an impressive presence nor a
good voice. He seldom attempts elab-
crate discourses. lie is at his best in
simple appeals to the heart, and to this
fact is due his missionary success.
Some Of his fellow-bishops may have
greater power to convince the intellect,
but none can touch the feelings more
deeply. W. l.. K.

"JohBny the Snake" ilOwls Like Mailman
When Convicted.
A st. Louis special says : John c..
Beaucleigh, alias johnny the Snake
the world-famous confdence-man,
created scene in the courtroom at
Clayton to-day. The jury had been
out thirty hours, and this morning
they returned verdict finding him
guilty of swindling granger out Of
sG00, and assessing his punish
ment at two years in the peni-
tertiary. As the verdict was read
Beaucleigh's face changed and be-
came pale as a sheet, but he said no.
thing until the jury had been polled
and had started out. Then, grasping
the table, be Kissed loudly enough to
be heard all over the room: &" | can't
get justice here, and that gray-headed
scoundrel [pointing to Judge Rdwardsl
is as big a rascal as any Of them"
Don't insult me, SIR" said the
Judge, and he added "Sheriff, remove
the prisoner"
Deputy-Sheriff Bellevills took hold
of Beaucleigh and attempted to remove
him, but he chung desperately to the
railing and shouted You can't be in
suited. You are past insult"
From that time Besucleigh acted
like a mailman, and while he was
being taken to the Jail cursed and
abused every man connected with
the court, calling them thieves,
scoundrels, and horse-thieves, and
every term of abuse he could
command. He was thrown into the
Jail corridor, where he fairly foamed at
the mouth. His breakfast things were
in the corridor, and he caught them up
and broke every dish ON the waiter.
He threw the pitcher at Deputy-Sheriff
Garret, smashing it against the wall,
and catching up a fork and case-knife
attempted to stab the Deputy. The
deputies and detectives tried to enter
the corridor to overpower him, but Beau
cleigh's wife and friends and the by
ISLANDERS restrained them, begging them
not to go in. Beaucleigh declared that
he would never serve term, and would
never be put in his cell alive. lie
threatened to kill any man that touched
him. He told his wife that she would
have had enough money to live on for
two years if she had not employed jury
hirelings for lawyers, and said he had
been deceived about the jury,
Beaucleigh was fugitive from justice
for two years, and when arrested for
the present offence be confessed that he
had spent over $4,000 evading the off,
GERS in various ways. When he was
brought here he worked assiduously to
accomplish his freedom by bribing,
making his escape, or securing aequit-
tai. Since the opening Of his trial at CLAY
ton on August 9th no labor to this end
has been spared. His friends and pals,
some of them claiming to be relatives,
have been at Clayton constantly in his
interest. One of the best allies he has
had is his wife, Agnes Beaucleigh, who
has been near him constantly with
their child, pretty boy, five years
old. During the excitement in court
to-day she fell on the courtroom floor
insensible.
