Gordon'a Antidoto for the Apple,

Here is a droll story about General
Gordon that has not yet found its way
into print The General entertained pc
culiar ideas concerning the Edenic apple
by which Mother Eve introduced death
and all our woe" into the world. The
constituent elements Of this fruit Gordon
held to be present in the blood of every
member of the human race up to this
present day, and he contended that their
virus could only be subdued and counter
acted by frequent participation in the
bread and wine of the sacrament. But SO
material view did he take of this rite,
that he thought the more man could in
gest, in quantity, of the consecrated food,
the better would be his chances Of expur-
eating from his physical organism the
poisonous corpuscles of the forbidden APP
pie. Having foreseen that there would
be little or no opportunities of receiving
the sacrament in the Soudan, Gordon re-
solved to take as much as possible of the
sacred elements before starting. He
therefore occupied himself on the Satur-
day before his last Sunday in England in
ascertaining the hours at which com
munion would be administered in the va
r1ous churches within reach of the place
where he then was, and, rising early on
the Sunday morning, he went from church
to church in turn, partaking of the sacra-
ment in each, and thus received the ele-
ments of some half-dozen times in sue
cession, beginning at 6 o'clock am. and
ending at mid day.-L9ndon Truth.

the case may be, if the mortgagor makes q
tender for redemption.
II is claimed for the defendants that as
the plaintiff did not enter according to the
prescribed forms of the statute he is moi
entitled to the benefit Of the further sta
tute provisions. But sec. 2 as / have
quoted embodies SO fairly the general rule
as laid down by the authorities and writ
ers-see Jones on mortgages and Powell
on mortgages deem it to be pro
per rule for the court In all cases of entry
by the mortgage. 1t seems to me to be
reasonable in the case of entry upon @
sugar plantation to allow as part Of the
expenditure the advances made by the
plantation agents, and it follows to allow
also the usual commissions and interest
on advances and on sales. The mortgages
must have paid these A principle gov
erning these cases is that it is considered
that it is by the default of the mortgagee
that the mortgagor enters. He is not tc
be held to do better for the estate than the

the care and diligence of provident own

Bill for foreclosure of two mortgages
held by the plaintiff by assignment.
The only points requiring particular
consideration as being matters contested
or claimed by the defendants are frst-the
claim of one of the defendants, Akanaliilii
for damages for not carrying out an alleged
contract of sale of these premises to him,
June 10th, 1884, for the sum of SS0000
Section las of the Civil Code IF there
are several plaintiffs, the demand set of
shall be due from them all jointly Except
dormant partners, by section 1149) is cited
against this claim This enactment embo-
dies familiar principle of adjudication.
If it were possible to entertain this claim,
and an amount of set off were allowed it
would be equivalent to Judgment in
favor of all the defendants for such
amount, whereas the claim belongs to but
one of them. Wong Sung, Assoc and
Achong would recover damages for the
non formance of the plaintiff contract
with Akanaliilii
The case before US is distinguishable
from those cases where the action is against
a mortgagor and his surety, on a bond
secured by the mortgage, the bond IN such
case being merely a security for the
separate debt of the mortgagor, and debt
due the mortgagor from the plaintiff may
be allowed in set off. Jones on mortgages
Sec. 1896.
Again, the statute concerning set off
limits it to ''plea of offset of the like kind
and denomination, existing in the same
right between him and the plaintiff
Section LAG. The defendant Akanaliilii,
pleads damages for breach of contract, an
unhquidated demand, against the amount
OF principal and interest on notes secured
by mortgage.
Either of the above reasons seem to me
sufficient to exclude consideration OF the
claim of offset, without discussing the
further question of the jurisdiction of this
court in the matter
The next point to be considered is the
liability of the plaintiff in account as
mortgage In possession. The defendants
claim that all moneys received from the
sale OF sugars are to be credited on their
mortgage notes without deducting adj
vsnces made by the factors or agents of
the plantation; and that neither the plain
tiff nor his agents can have commissions
on advances, nor make any profit directly
or indirectly which is not to be credited to
these defendants: that the mortgagor be
not allowed to make a profit out Of his
possession and that if more ought properly
and reasonably to have been realized the
plaintiff is chargeable with the SINE.
Chapter As of the statutes Of 1874
Compiled Laws p. $50, provides IN sec. 2
that the mortgage in possession is autho-
rized to make such expenditure as is neces-
sary to carry on the estate or to keep the

This is an action 10 recover the value of a
certain crop Of kalo planted on q parcel Of
land at Kapalama, Honolulu, Oahu, belonging
to the estate of W. Mahuia Austin, deceased
After his death his widow, now the wife Of
William Holt, plaintiff, put Lula 1.-THE other
PLAINTIFF on it to plant and cultivate crop OF
kalo on shares. The land was sold by the
administrator under license from the court, to
pay deoe5ent's debts. The land was put up
by the auctioneer with the crop Of kalo and
was bought by defendant The widow did
not release her dover.
The verdict of the jury was for plaintiff
Luha 5000 damages and for Mr.. Holt see So.
The case comes to US on exceptions from a
refusal to grant new trial on the ground that
the verdict is contrary 10 the evidence.
An estoppel was claimed against the plain
tiffs. The court charged the jury that Luha
was not estopped to claim his half of the crop
of kalo from the purchaser of the land if he
understood from conversations with Luha the
exact circumstances ofthe case. If Fernandez
was mislead by misrepresentation of Luba
to suppose that he was buying the crop, then
he was estopped. The law as laid down BY
the Court is not excepted to. There was
evidence which went to the jury that Lula
had told Fernandez all the facts in reference
to his planting and cultivating the crop and
so he did not act in ignorance So in respect
to the Holt claim for one third of the other
half Of the crop, the Court held that if Mrs.
Holt, prior to her marriage, had consented to
the sale of the property with the crop, they
would be estopPed to claim it now. The
testimony on this point was conflicting but
there was evidence upon which the Jury were
entitled 10 tind as they did.
We therefore override the exceptions.

places cold springs are found, and
wells are obtained in nearly every part

THE PROsPECTOR.

Ed. RECORD: 1t is, believe, the gen.
eral supposition that the life of pros.
pector is lazy and lonely one, spiced
occasionally with sumo harmless delu-
sion, such as building castles in the air,
during which he imagines himself mil.
lionaire with thousands at his command
wherewith to build mills, roads, etc.
As to the vocation being lazy one, l
differ with the general public, that is,
the larger class of citizens who are will
ing enough to concede to the prospector
the merit of being the pioneer of civiliza-
ton in the far West, but who still retain
lurking suspicion that he is somewhat
lazy, devil,may- care kind of fellow,
that is satisfied with hermitage in the
mountains as long as he has enough
bread, bacon and coffee to satisfy the
inner man. Now, nothing is farther from
the truth than this, for the man who de-
votes the best years of his life in search.
ing for the precious metals is too ambi.
tious to be lazy; besides. his mistress
the golden visioned goddess of the Ser-
ras--rules him with a hard wand, if it is
a golden one. As to prospecting being a
lonely business, it is quite the reverse,
for the fortune seeker learns to love the
aroma of the pine and cedar, and while
he views the large expanse of country
from some lofty peak near his mountain
home he feels as free from the burden
some conventionalities Of this Nine
teenth Century as old Father Adam was
when he first saw the light of day in the
Garden of Eden. Besides, there are
"reminiscences to be related by the camp
fire, for there are few prospectors but
who have led eventful lives in their
search after the precious metals in Ari.
iona and the other outlying Territories,
where the scalp and knife of the Indian
hung over their trail like the sword OF
Damocles over the Philistines.

GRAND ENTERPRISE.

From Mr.. Ben Hampton Of the Osceola
Gravel Mining Company, the Salt Lake
Tribune learns that they now have in one
hydraulic machine which is doing excel
lent service. They have more water than
their hume can carry with safety, and
one hume has been turned out. Still
they have 1000 miners inches at the
gravel bars which they are playing upon
the banks with a six.inch nozzle under
300 foot pressure. They are now running
III on the rim to reach the bedrock where
the best results are to be obtained. The
company have room for and water sup
ply sufficient to run another monitor by
using the stream second time, and they
contemplate, in the near future, putting
in an extra machine. Three men to the
shift can work one monitor under ordin.
airy circumstances, and move hundreds
of tons of earth every twenty.four hours.
When they strike nest Of boulders too
large to pass through the discharge hume,
as is the case where the work is now 60
ing on, extra men are employed to break

Osceola gravel and boulders are of quartz
lite, while the quartz Of that region is soft
and decomposed. and the auiferous metal
free. All the gravels there bear gold,
and this company have secured patents
to nearly all the grounds in Osceola.
| They have brought in the water from the
mountains at an enormous expense, and,
to use vulgar phrase, have the bulge on
the business. 1t is believed to be one of
the greatest mining enterprises in Amer
lea. Through long years Messrs. Ben
Hampton and W. s. Godbe have been
carefully working for and patiently await
ing the result. of their labor, which they
knew would be golden garvest, and
which is now within their grasp. Inter.
ested with them are Walker Bros. and

ounces to the ton, and was taken from
the black shaft dump of the Meadow Val.
ley. In early days it was thrown away
as being of no account, for the company
was then shipping nothing but $500 ore
to San Francisco. Some so tons of this
ore were shipped to San Francisco, and

erected by the company in Dry Valley.
The so tons of ore were then shipped to
