No Leper.

From the Philadelphia Times.
Claus Spreckels, the sugar king, tells
the following story as illustrating the
Intellectual attempts of the Sandwich
Island authorities to investigate the
origin and Transmission of leprosy
in that country. There had been a
murder committed by.a healthy ma.
tive, who was condemned to death. A
German doctor begged the convict's
life from King Kalakaua, on condition
that the convict submit to q course
of experiments. IS
Consent was given and the man was
severely %inoculated with the blood OF
lepers. without any apparent, effect.
At last the German dissected a piece
of flesh as big as the palm OF his hand
out of the shoulder OF living leper
and sewed it into a wound he made in
a corresponding position on the
shoulder Of his subject. Even this
failed. This was four years ago and
the convict is to-day a healthy man.
They are as yet in complete ignorance
OF the rules governing this dread
disease as when, four years ago, they
commenced the experiment.

The Meanest Cheat Yet.
rom the Mexican County Miner.

From the Mexican County Miner.
A reputable citizen of the county
writes US that not many days ago a
man took a load OF grain to a mill in
this county, put his horses in the
mill shed, and gave them half a
bushel OF oats in the feed boxes. He
then went into the mill, but imme.
diately returned to get a bag, but he
heard his horses paving as though
they wanted something to eat. He
went to their heads, and what was
his astonishment to find their oats
all gone.
He then began to investigate, and
found the boxes had o false bottom.
As soon as the horses put their noses
into the oats it pressed the bottom
Of the box down so that the oats would
run through into another box, the bot
tom of (which was filled with augerholes.
From last winter the poor horses
that were hauling logs we're supposed
to be fed in this shed, and the thiel
who robbed the noble animals OF
their food ought to be punished.

The Last DAYS of Webster.
From a Boston Letter.

From a Boston Letter.
During my five years residence in
the city of Boston I saw the distln-
guished statesman several times. /
heard his great speech in front of the
Revere House. His voice rang out
like a trumpet and he was heard dis
tinctly by the vast multitude that fill
ed the square and crowded the streets
I also heard him address the General
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church in Faneuil Hall. The last
time / saw him was q short time be.
fore his death. He was receiving the
compliments and congratulations OF
his friends in Boston. The city was
alive with visitors, the streets were
thronged and flags waved from mast
and spire, roof, tree and window. In
strumental bands "discoursed sweet
music" and the great statesman rode
in his carriage through the immense
crowds of cheering. friends, receiving
their homages hat in hand and bowling
right and lett. A great change had
passed over him. He had evidently
been a sufferer disappointed man.
He did not receive the nomination for
the presidency, which hehoped to win.
Whittier had scored him in q poem
called "Ichabod." Wendell Phillips
had criticised his course in congress in
a sharp speech, and political editors
had called him before the bar of pub
lie sentiment. When he died Theo-
dore Parker delivered a splendid dis
course, in which the most magnificent
American statesman was duly hon
ored and honestly complimented.
His last words were, II still live"
He lives in the memory of survivors,
who saw him and who heard his mar
velous eloquence. He lives in the his
tory that records his. great achieve
ments as O lawyer, as q statesman
and as a logical debater. He lives in
works of art on canvas. in marble and
in bronze. He lives in the printed
speeches that have been published and
scattered over the land broadcast as
the grass in the meadows. Nature
does not duplicate her greatest men in
q single centsry, perhaps never. We
may safely conclude that America will
not have another Webster. eve
shall never look upon his like again.
This great man had faults, he made
mistakes, he was human, although he
was called the ..god-like," but / have
no inclination now to make a record
OF his mistakes and misadventures.
Even the u has spots, but it is q
great light, a brilliant luminary shin
ing upon the evil and the good.

Chaplain Milburn.
Washington Post.

w
Rev. DR.. Milburn, the blind Chap.
lain of the House of Representatives,
whose prayers are just now creating
a sensation, il q remarkable man in
more than one respect. Forty-three
years ago he vas told by eminent
doctors that he wonld be dead with
in six months, and since that time he
has trave.ed, by actual computation,
a million and q half miles in his vo-
cation. He is now physically, al
though in his sixty-fourth year, Us
stons and robust as most men OF
thirty, and his intellect is of more
than common power. lie can
give o accurate descriptions
of Westminster Abbey, Cologne Ca
thedral, Notre Dame and the
other Old World monuments he
has visited than the majority Of those
persons who have not been dependent
ON other peoples eyes and on their
of touch. He call describe the
rocky outlines and mountainous de
clivities ofthe Sierras and ofthe Rocky
Mountains and the picturesque beau
ties Of the Blue Ridge with @ force and
vigor combined with accuracy rarely
equalled, even by writer's who still re-
tain their sight, while he has been blind
since he was five years old. 1t is his
wonderful power of thus describing in
simple language the concrete things of
life that renders his sermons and pray
ers so forciful and attracts to them
such widespread attention. His first
invocation to attract notice in the
House was a vigorous denunciation
of stock gambling, but recently ne
cast all previous utterances in the
shade by referring to the present labor
troubles in such a n as to call
forth from a Representative the re-
mark that it was all "incendiary
speech"
A reporter of the Post found DR..
Milburn enjoying the delight of a long
stemmed pipe. At the reporters en-
trance the doctor arose, and, in a
hearty voice, said he was 'glad to
see" him. The reverend gentleman is
of tall and commanding presence.
Broad-chested and inclined to stout
ness, he is the picture of health. A
full, untrimmed gray beard floats away
down his vest, while his black hair,
streaked with silver, is brushed back
from his high forehead and hangs in
bushy luxuriance upon the collar OF
his clericalcoat. His strongly-marked
features bear O. kindly expression, and
are every nov and then lit up by a
pleasant smile. While talking he
fixes his eyes upon the person whom
he is addressing, and the sightless
orbs appear to look straight into the
soul of his listener. He is a most in
teresting talker, and one of his favor
lite hobbies is the subject OF health
and it's promotion. He is q very Jew
in his selection of food, positively
eschewing all hog meats, and he treats
himself to a regular course of curry
comb and rough towel. cold water,
oil and sun-baths every morning. AS
he himself says, he is one of the best
groomed men in the country.

GAINES TRIAL.

How 1t Progressed I'm Judge
O,meivcnyss Court Ycstcfd day.
The trial Of E. T. Gaines, formerly
a watchman in Lucas Pacific Coast
Detective Agency, the alleged partner
Of Edward Webb, in the attempted
burglary Of Lambourne & Turner's
store, on Also street, on the night Of
February 2Sth last, came up before
Judge O'Melveny, in Department No.
8 Of the Superior Court, yesterday
morning. Chief Cuddy's evidence
was virtually the same as that which
he gave in the trial of Webb, Gaines
alleged partner, some days ago, and
Officers Donahue and Mckenzie gave
testimony similar to that heretofore
published. After Mckenzie finished,
Wm. Elton was called to the stand.
During the examination Of this wit
ness it came out that he had been in
the jail at Stockton serving out two
months sentence for having stolen
some harness. 1t was also
divulged that witness was even
now prisoner in the County Jail
awaiting trial on charge of burglary.
Elton had been in the employ Of
Lucas at San Francisco. He said he
had seen Lucas steal goods from
houses since he came here in Febru-
ary. He also applied some very harsh
names to Marsh, calling him "dirty
lying rascal"
After Elton, G. M. C. Farland testi-
fed to Gaines good character in Paris,
Canada, where he said Gaines was
Chief of Police, and had first-c'ass
reputation. Edward Lloyd also testi-
fed to Caine's excellent character in
Paris, Canada. Mrs. Bliss and Mr..
Bliss we're next called, and testified
as before. Later on the defendant
took the stand, and testified in his
own behalf. The defendants testi-
mony closed the case for the defen Sc,
and this morning the evidence in re-
buttal will be given, after which
the arguments will be made and the
case submitted to the jury.

less and who had been living from
hand to mouth for some time. He
was most anxious to return to Chicago
where he had many friends and
would be almost certain of obtaining
an engagement. During the day the
gentlemen above named, together
with another member of their com.
pany, dubbed pocketbooks and at the
Burlington offices purchased their un-
fortunate brother historian the ticket
he SO much desired. In addition to
this they rendered him some money

train pulled out for the East last
night, in comfortable car sat tht
man whom they had befriended
