VIII be Hanged To-day.

Uzza p French, who murdered his
brother-in-law, Peter Wells, in the town Of
Oleta, Amador county, on the 18th OF
March, 1884, will be hanged in the city OF
Stockton to-day. Strong appeals have
been made to Governor Stcneman to COM
mute the sentence 20 imprisonment for
life. The Governor carefully read the tesii-
mony adduced at the trial, listened atten-
lively to the able arguments of the con
demned mans attorneys, and scrutiniz-
iugly perused the mammoth petition they
filed with him asking for the commuta-
ton. The murder upon The face of ii
would appear to he cold-blooded and delib-
crate, and the chief executive could find no
mitigating circumstance that would warrant
him in acceding to their request. On Sun
day he telegraphed TO Sheriff Cunningham
TO proceed with his preparations to execute
the man in accordance with the sentence OF
the Court, as he should NOT interfere Yes
terday brother OF the condemned man,
accompanied by his attorney, Add c.
Hinkson, made a final and pathetic appeal
to the Governor. The latter was inexora-
BILE. He said he could do nothing in the
matter. The Stockton Independent says
that French was hopeful to the last that the
Governor would commute his sentence.
Some time ago he sent for Catholic priest,
and lately he has seen his spiritual adviser
frequently. 1t is believed he will meet
death bravely. Two guards for some time
have been with the condemned man at
night and one during the daytime.

The Klein Murder.

About the only subject of conversation
upon the streets of the city yesterday was
that Of the Sunday-night homicide The
large number of extra papers issued by the
RECORD UNION containing the interesting
statement of Miss WeiZel met with ready
sale and were exhausted long before noon.
That statement, one of the most cool and
remarkable on record was discussed from
every conceivable standpoint
a reporter callai at the city prison last
evening and visited Miss Weizel in her cell.
She said she did not sleep any Sunday
night, had been quite i'll yesterday fore
noon, and looked pale and somewhat care
worn. She greeted the reporter with a
pleasant salutation, and said she was quite
comfortable. She had received a call IRON
both her father and mother during the day
She asked many questions about the de-
ceased, especially regarding the post NOR
TEN. At the close of the conversation,
which was brief, she said It's really too
bad, isn't it? But then don't regret what
| have done in the least. He is better of
than | am, my condition considered"
The inquest will be held at the Cor
oner's office this evening. A post norton
examination was made yesterday, which
| showed that the bullet entered the back OF
the head, ranged forward, struck against
the forehead and bounded back into the
brain. The skull was shattered badly. A
reporter stepped yesterday into the gun
smith store where Miss Wiezel purchased
the pistol she used, and made some in
quiries, which developed the fact that some
weeks ago she visited the place and ex-
pressed a wish to purchase such weapon
Mr.. Eckhardt, the gunsmitE, expressed
SURPRISE and she said her brother was 60
ing into the mountains and she wanted to
make him present. After selecting a pis-
tol, she requested him to load it, and, when
he doubted the adYisability OF doing so,
said il would look better if her present was
given in condition ready for use. Last Sat
urday morning she called at the store again
and asked to change the weapon for an
other, and selected an Indian bulldog

The Plaza and ihe concerts.

EDS. RECORD UNION: We have but one
Plaza in this city, of our own, for breath
ing place for our children during these
summer days. 1t has always been a pleas
ant spot, beautiful to the eye and refreshing
10 the sense. But now that the concerts,
which gather a vast throng for two or
three hours, especially on Sunday even
ings are for that reason denied the use of
the Capitol grounds, our little Plaza must
bear the whole brunt of them. As result,
the lawn will soon be utterly destroyed.
The business community, who, with COM
mendable public spirit, furnish the where
withal for the open-air concerts, did not
anticipate that they would lead either to
the dissertation of Sabbath hours of divine
service or to the destruction of public
property.
In view Of recent events, would not 4
single concert weekly-say ON Friday even
ing-subserve every useful purpose, and at
the same time not conflict with any public
interest? PROPERTY OWNER.

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
City Trustees.


The Board of City Trustees met in regu.
lar session at 10 \. NJ. yesterday, all the
members present.
At the request Of citizens who reside in
the vicinity, V street, between Sixth aud
Seventh was ordered opened.
The Chief Engineer of the water works
reported that during the past week %, 423.-
OO0 gallons of water had been pumped. a
decrease of ,577, 600 gallons from that of
the preceding week This is said TO be
owing entirely to the fact that lawn irri-
CATION has been stopped except during the
hours that ii is permitted by the ordinance.
The convictions and heavy fines IN the Po-
lice Court has had the effect TO cause people
TO respect the ordinance.
Health Officer Atkinson stated that The
canal needed cleaning out at several points
below the city. where the banks had cayed
in and obstructed the flow of water with
earth and debris. From investigation he
had aScertained that $50 barrels of water,
the washings from the Sacramento Brew
cry, Twenty-eighth and n streets, Scheld's.
found its way daily into the canal. He was
also infouned by Mr.. Scheld that the water
was dumped into the canal by and with the
permission of the City Trustees.
Mayor Brown and Street Commissioner
Ryan both said that the brewery proprietor
was mistaken. The canal had been dug
for an entirely different purpose than that
OF being the receptacle for swills from brew
cries. The drains were ordered immedi-
ately disconnected and the nuisances abated
with all speed possible
August Hebron, who was present, stated
Nat permission had been granted the
brewery aud slaughter houses to drain into
the canal by the Board of Supervisors.
Mayor Brown said the Supervisors, if that
was the case, had exceeded their authority.
The Health Officer was requested to lay
the matter before the Board of Health i'm
mediately
Chief Of Police Dillman Lard an ordinance
before the Board making it an offense for
any one to have burglars tools in their
possession. The ordinance was read and
laid over for one week under the rules.
The proposition to paint signs to mark
the street corners was rejected.

Yesterday morning Mrs. Pauline Crow
ner, colored woman about fifty years of
age was taken i'll while walking in the VIZ
cinity Of Eighth and NJ streets, and, enter
ing Mrs. Mary S. Cowgur's carpet weaving
establishment she requested the privilege
of sitting down for while. She explained
that She was liable to attacks of
asthma, and asked to be given some hot
water, in order that she might inhale the
steam, as that course Of treatment usually
gave her relief. Some water was procured,
but it had scarcely been brought, when she
fell over gasping. a physician was sent
for, but before he arrived she was dead. A
post norton examination made later in
the day showed that death resulted from
enlargement of the heart The Coroner
will hold an inquest in the case this after
noon. Deceased was married, her husband
residing in Virginia City. but she had been
living in Sacramento for some time in the
