4 DOUBLE STANDARD.
Views Of the Great Italian Champion
Of Bi- i-Metallisn.

\ Paris special OF the 10TH inst saws:
Henri Cernuschi, the italian champion ot
lectured upon the n,one-
tary question and the economical crisis, in
the grand amphitheatcr Of the Ecoic des
Hautcs Etude Commercials in the Rue
de 'rocqueville. NJ. Cernuschi eloqucnt!v
denounced Germany and England as tho
primary causes OF the recent economic
crisis in France and elsewhere. lie SAID
those two nations caused all the evil by
their pig.hcadcd refusal to fix permanently
the relative statutes OF silver and gold, and
that the crisis would go from bad to worse
so long rs the divorce between the two
precious metals continued. NJ. Cernuschi
went into details OH the Anglo Indian sit
uation, and maintained that the continued
fall in value i'll the rupee was pregnant
with the most terrible consequences, not
ONLY to India, but to the world at large.
The lecturer said later to reporter:
"Wi'at want to call special attention to is
the fact that the scarcity Of gold has moth
ing whatever to do witt, the crisis Of to-
day. If all the silver francs, shillings.
marks and roubles OF Europe were sud
denly transferred by u ,nagician's wand in.
to gold, the situation would not be pern,a.
nently changed. Asia has one standard :,
Europe has anothcr-bi.mc:allism is the.
sole remedy"

All sam Escaped.

1t seems that the Chinese horsethlef,
captured in tits city by Constable Bo-
tello, has escaped. The Ventura Free
Press says of the matter: "There is a
black hat and queue at the sherifs OF.
fice, and thereby hangs little tale.
Sheriff Snodgrass was bringing All Sam.
the horse thief, back on the Newhall
stage last night. The Chinaman was
handcufed and seated opposite the sher-
iff, all the precautions being taken that
are usually taken with prisoners. When
near Saticoy, at about II O'Clock, the
Chinaman made a leap out into the dar k.
ness, but not before passenger on the
seat with him grabbed his queue, to
which he held on with a death grip.
The horses becoming frightened, started
up and All Sam dangled on the outside
until his queue was caught in the brake
block and severed from his head. The
sher If took shot at the departing Ce-
lestial, but owing to the darkness missed.
The sheriff and assistants are now search
Ing for him and without doubt will soon
have him behind the bars.

A MERITED SENTENCE.
WIN. Dixon Gets Five Hundred
DAYS in the County Jail.


Mr.. and Mrs. Plummer came in from
their Cahuenga ranch on Saturday and
fastened their team just back of the
Times office, on New High street. Will
lam Dixon, of no particular vocation
excepting the high art of larceny, came
saunterng alorg just then, and cast
look of envy upon Pummer's fine over
coat which was in the wagon. The look
was detected by Plummer, who hid be-
hind bulletin board to OBJ serve Dixon's
actions, When the latter thought the
coast was clear he imme dlately pounced
upon the oyercoat and started down the
street with it, not fast enough, however,
to o cape Plummer's reveugeful grip
He was brought to the police Office and
charged with petty larceny. Justice
Austin tried bin yesterday for the Of
fense. The defendant pleaded guilty.
Justice Austin asked him if he had ever
been convicted before, to which Dixon
replied that ne had been convicted OF
petty larceny before Justice Morgan,
and had also served one term IN the
Penitentiary, but that he had not been
up before Justice Austin. The Court
then sentenced him to pay fine OF 5000
or 90 TO the county Jail for i've hundred
days. Having no money Dixon was re-
luctantly compelled to take the days, aud
he said tearfully, when he was being
taken to his dungeon cell, that the Peni.
tentiary would nave been bliss indeed
compared with the prese mt award. jus.
tice Austin is satisfied that ne has SEN
fenced Dixon before, but under another
name. The record does not show the
name of Dixon, either under Justice
Morgan or the present incumbent.

The Charge Did Not stick.

j. A. Alviso, Mexican waiter, was
arrested on complaint of Z. j. Davis
some days ago on the charge OF robbery.
Davis was gambling in dive on New
High street at night and was getting
ahead. Suddenly some one whom he
claims was Alviso, aimed blow at his
head. Davis lodged and at that mo, 10
ment his pile, consisting of 81 or IS
lying on the table before him, disap'
peared. The examination OF Alvso
took place yesterday before Justice
Austin. Davis was missing and could
not be found. 1t was proved that the
monev had really been stolen, but there
were five or six men standing around the
table at the time and nothing in the evi-
dence connected Alviso with the crime.
He was discharged.

THOUSANDS

Upon thousands of men, in good standing
in the social world, are to-day suffering
from the fruits of their doings, the seeds of
which were sown during moments of
thoughtlessness.
Young man, turn and gaze upon thy com
panion, or seek the mirror for proofs to sub
stantiate this fact. On, could he control the
arm of Fate, or had he his life to live over
again then could not appeal to you more
sincerely. Let your mind wander back to
the much cherished counsels of a loving
fa her, and remember what you are to-day.
Tn ugh you may for the present fill your
station in society, the time is as inevitable
as fate when your brilliancy will. like q
flash. depart, leaving You stranded wreck.
desolate, forgotten and lost. So embrace
the opportunity and enjoy life and happi-
ness longer. If you claim to be a man, act
your part manly. Do not consll yourself
with the thought that Nature VIII help itself.
for in so doing you not only fan the flame,
but wreck Nature and yourself. Remember,
Large oaks from lit tie acorns grow Lit
tie ills germinate fatal diseases"
