 SACRAMENTO, Nov. 22.-The Gov ernor has pardoned John s. Gray, who was convicted of embezzlement in San Francisco in 1883 and sentenced to ten years. The pardon was reoom- mended by the Board of Prison Directors on the ground that his mind is becoming i'm paired and further incarcaration would destroy his reason. The potion for his pardon was also signed by the committing judge and large number of prominent citizens.

TE.e Esurke-nempsey Contes.

FEIe 1surlke-RempseyC Contest.
 Special To THE ToMBsToNE1.
 SAN FRANCISCO, November 24.-It was supposed by some that the Sulli- van Ryan glove contest would dwarf the interest felt in the Bnrke-Demp- sey fight which takes place to- nig%t If however public interest in the two contests is to be measured by results then the Burke-Dempsey affair has proved itself much mora interesting and important even then was the great "knock out" of Ryan by Sullivan. Burke and Dempsey both were known to be good men and evenly matched. Dempsey has the reputation of being the harder hitter while at the same time he went into the ring with the prestige Of being the winner of thirty battles.
 Burke on the oth CT hand has believ- ed to have largely gained in hitting" power to have had advantage of more scientific training, aud to be in better fighting condition than his opponent, besides this It was well known that both men meant business and that fl not stepped by the police neither would give way until forced to. Every thing consequently contributed to make the match one of the most inter esting and best contests ever witnessed in th.s city.
 As early os 4. 30 o'clock in the after noon Larkin street Tn front of the Pa vilion was filled with people each de- termined to get front seat this time if they never d.d again. By 6 o'clock the crowd had so increased i1 number as must have brought delight to the hearts or those destined to share in tie receipts. When the main doors were thrown open it took the combined eff forts of d squad of Pollce and door keepers to keep the crowd from rush ing in without handing out their money or ticket. For few moments it looked as if the match inside would be proc. eded by dange;ous one out side, but when the crowd saw they would not be permitted to force their way in, they good nature lily fell back in line and each one taking his turn.
 'Parson'' Davies, manager fo.' Burke took much trouble to effect good ar engagements for punctual start which was timed for 10 o'clock, but 10 o'clock arrived with out any signs of the s.ars The audience which had hoped for bet ter things manifested it's impatience, by stamping whistles and cat calls. At 1924 Burke forced forced his way through the crowd and jumped through the ropes into the ring. He was greeted with loud applause. Quickly following him came Jack Dempsey.

first he had not intended to do. She took
it pleasantly, feeling that she was becom-
ing more assured of her ground. But she
was still novice, and was conscious of a
nervous sensation when she was again alone
with Mrs. Fairfax. The latter, however,
was entirely taken up with other thoughts:
When she spoke, it was merely to suggest
that as it was growing late they had better
90 to bed. She bade Magdalen goodnight,
kindly expressed hope that she would
sleep comfortably, and said she would have
her called in the morning in time to pre-
pare for breakfast.
And Magdalen went to bed-but not, TOR

SOURCE OF THE MISSISSIPPI.-Ihe new
ly found source of the Mississippi is spark
ling little gem of lake situated above and
beyond Lake Itaska. 1t nestles among the
pines of an unfrequented and wild region of
Minnesota, many miles from the nearest
white settlement, and just on the dividing
ridge which forms the great watershed of
North America. Within few miles of it
can be found lakes and streams whose wa
ters are tributary to the Red River of the
North and the Yellowstone, thus reaching
the sea thousands of miles from the mouth
of the mighty Mississippi, which flows in a
trickling brook from Lake Glazer. This
lake, discovered to be the true source of the
greatest river of North America by Captain
Willard Glazier, on the 22nd of July, 1881,
is about mile and half in greatest diam
eter, and would be nearly round in shape
but for single prOmOntory, whose rocky
shores give it, in outline, the shape of a
heart. The waters Of the lake are exceed
ingly clear and pure, coming from springs,
some being at the bottom, but the three
most prominent rise few miles back in
low, wet land, and flow into the lake in lit
tie rils. On the very point of the promon-
tory is spring whose waters are as cold as
ice, and at which Captain Glaciers weary
party slaked their thirst while exploring the
shores of the new lake. So lonely is the re-
gion around the lake that for fourteen days
not even redskin was seen, and Wearled
by the hardshps of this rough country, yet
with a feeling of having added something
to geographical knowledge, Captain Glazier
and his party were glad to come into con-
tact again with their felloW-creatures.-

THE CHILDREN ARE CoURTEOUs.-In
Mexico a group of lads from seven to twelve
will meet, and each boy will decorously lift
his hat and salutatiOns of extreme courtesy
will be exchanged, and then comes the boy
ish chatter, the fun and the laughter, the
same as an ywhere. Boys here treat their
elders with respect. An old man or woman
is not the butt of the youth of Mexico ;
rather for the old people is reserved the
shadiest seat under the trees in the parks
and the best seats in the family sala. A
Mexican girl or boy on entering a room
walks around among the company, shaking
hands with all, and on leaving the room
does the same. "Urbanity" is taught in the
public schools as arithmetic is at home.
There is no one jostled on the street; the
best seat in the horse-car is promptly given
up to the ladies, who never fail gracefully to
acknowledge the favor. I have never seen
a Mexican gentleman fail to give his seat to
a woman, whether she was richly or poorly
dressed.-BostOn Herald.

THE MONEY VALUE OF WoMEN.-"For
every man who lives single life, caring
only for himself, there is some woman who
is deprived of her natural supporter" says
Henry George.
It is cool and unwarranted assumption
on the part of society that wives are sup
ported by their husbands. The persons who
assume this Will seldom deny that wives
usually work as many hours day as their
husbands, and frequently more. "But
then," they will say, "the wifes labor is
unproductive; it has no money value"
Such a position needs no very close analy-
sis to prove its utter absurdity. Let the
wife fall sick, and it is Immediately discov-
cred that her labor has money value, for
it takes money to hire help to take her
place in the household. To take her place
did I say! But who can take her place?
The wife's labor is not unproductive. It's
as necessary to cut and sew cloth into gar
ments as it is to produce the material Of
which it is made or to weave that material
into cloth. 1t is as necessary that food be
cooked as it is that it be provided in readi-
ness for cooking. A house-keeper is as es-
sental as householder.
woman asks for in society, but justice equal
pay for equal Industrial appeal.
FOoD AND CoNsCIENCE.-Never go to
bed in any danger of being hungry. People
are kept awake by hunger quite as much as
by bad conscience. Remembering that
sleep is the essential force which the whole
scheme starts, decline tea or coffee within
six hours before going to bed. If the kind
water at the tea-tabe colored with tea; but
the less the better. Avoid all mathematics
or intricate study of any sort in the last six
hours. This is the stuff dreams are made of,
and hot heads and the nuisances Of waking
hours. Keep your conscience clear. Re-
member that because the work of life is in
finite, you cannot do the whole of it in any
limited period of time, and that, therefore,
you may as we'll leave off in one place as
another.-Edward Everett Hale.
sB Nearly everybody has heard the story
OF the painter of olden times who exposed
his picture to the public criticism, and put
paint brush handy that anybody might
paint out any particular feature he did not
approve. OF course the stupid man soon
found that everybody had some fault to
find and his picture was totally obliterated.
Just as it was with that artists picture, so
it is with the life-work Of the majority.
Somebody will be pretty sure to take a
crooked and distorted view of our charac-
tiers and doings, however meritorious they
may be. Some will do this willfully and
maliciously, others through misunderstand-
ing.
aa5" Whatever be our purpose in life, if it
is good and true one, we may rest assured
we shall promote it best, not by seeking for
large and impossible views of it, not by
waiting for the clouds that obscure it to
pass wholly away and leave it in untem-
pered light, but by cherishing every glimpse
that is afforded, by discovering all that
is thus revealed, and by so conducting our
actions and our life as to embody in prac-
tice that which we have realized in con-
ception.

A LEAF FROM THE PAsT.-March, 1855,
"The assembly of North Carolina passed a
bill for raising $4,000 for assisting the colo
ny of Virginia from the encroachments OF
the French"
We learn from an old magazine of Aug
ust, 1855, that North Carolina is bounded by
Virginia on the north, the ocean on the
east, by fine line drawn in 81 derees from
the ocean to the mountains on the south,
and by that part of Florida possessed by
the Indians on the west. 1t is divided into
IA parishes or Townships; but we do not
hear of any church or town of note in the
country. In the same way South Carolina
is bounded on the west by the Indian coun-
try. ut is thought there are
more inhabitants in North than in South
Carolina, though no significant towns" "
We are apt to forget that the products Of
the country are now very d difsrent fSe t. from rom
year they shipped from Charleston, S. c.,
100000 lbs. of indico Gas they spelled it
them to England. ."-SatesriNe Landmark.

A STORY OF WAR TIMEs.-"I thought
this was the land of Tar, Pitch and Turpen-
tine" said Northern gentleman the other
day to the Headlight reporter, "but | don't
see any-and right here beside the Tar riv-
er, too ?"
ut is here, though you may not see it,"
we replied, land your remark reminds us
of similar one made by a Connecticut Reg
iment which came down here during the
war;"
"How was that?"
"Wel, when you Yankees captured
Washington the citizens rolled all their tur-
pentine into the Tar river, and this regiment
continually referred to the absence OF our
natural product.
lone day, however, it occurred to those
soldiers to take bath in the river. Six OF
them dived headforemost into the water ST.
multaneously, and never appeared again.
Six more went after them, and were absent
at the next roll-call The citizens chuckled
and the remaining soldiers wondered. a
week afterwards the river fell, and there
the mystery lay bare. The faithful tar had
securely held the invaders and there were 9
round dozen Yankees sticking feet upward
to the sun! No further reference was made
to the absence ofturpentine."
"Hum," remarked the Northern gentle
man, "is that a fact?"
ut is; and they had to use donkey Ell

JOHN ADAMS WIFE ABIGAu..-Mrs.
Adams, by the way, Abigail Smith, was
the daug ghter of Presbyterian clergyman,
who had poor opinion of the morals of the
legal profession and objected to John be-
cause he had been intended for the ministry
and wifully turned aside to law. His pre-
tensions were not favored. He was not even
invited to the family table when he came
on some of his visits. The match was fixed,
however, and agreed to: When her sister
Mary had married, the father had preached
a sermon on the text, "Mary hath chosen
the good part" Now it was Abigaips
turn. You preached on Mary's text when
she was married and now you will preach
upon mine?' 'Oh certainly. What it"
Quick as a flash, remembering the opposi-
ton to her lover, John Adams, she replied:
John came neither eating nor drinking,
and they say he hath devil" She was a
woman of great force of character, figuring
largely in his correspondence, a frequent
adviser on affairs of state and it is even
credited to her that she first suggested the
Declaration.

WHY PEOPLE WERE BURIED.-When
men began to bury their dead they did so
in the firm belief in another life, which life
was regarded as the exact counterpart OF this
present one. The unsophsticated savage,
holding in that equal sky his faithful dog
would bear him company, naturally enough
had the dog in question killed and buried
with him, in order that it might follow him
to the happy hunting ground. Clearl y, you
can't hunt without your arrows and your
tomahawk; so the flint weapons and the
trusty bow accompanied their owner in his
new dwelling place.
The wooden haft, the deer sinew bow
string, the perishable articles Of food and
drink, have long since decayed within the
damp tumulus; but the harder stone and
earthenWare articles have survived till now,
to tell the story of that crude and simple
early faith. Very crude and illogical, in
deed, it was, however, for it is quite clear
that the actual body Of the dead man was
thought of as perssting to live sort of un-
derground life within the burrow. A stone
hut was constructed for its use; ; real weapons
and implements were left by its side, and
slaves and wives were ruthlessly massacred,
as still in Ashantee, in order that their
bodies might accompany the corpse OF the
buried master in his subterranean dwelling.
In all this we have clear evidence of very
inconsistent. savage, materialistic belief,
not indeed in the immortality Of the soul, ,
but in the continued underground life of the
dead body.-CornhW Magazine.
