EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Boston Herald says that Gov.
Proctor being dealer in marble will
furnish headstones for Democrats under
the new administration at half-price.
We do not see the point. The marble
business is an entirely separate affair
from the lumber trade.

The Fifieth Congress expired by
limitation on Monday noon, March A..
Among the principal things accomplish
ed by it was the admission of four new
states, the creation of new depart
ment of agriculture, and for great
contest ou the tariffquestion. Bills es-
tablishing a department OF labor, pro-
viding for conference of the nations
of the American continent, further re-
stricting Chinese immigration, and
chartering the Nicaragua canal COM
pany were also passed. These were
all measures of general interest. The
attempt TO remove tax on tobacco was
failure in consequence of filibustering
tactics. Let them filibuster.

We read great deal about the good
time the Vermonters had at tine inau-
guration. Only little is said about
the wet time, and the fact that the fore
sight of Col. Estey saved them from
much extortion. Washington people
are in danger of laming the goose that
drops the golden egg.

The future historian Of Vermont will
find things a good deal mixed when he
records the proceedings of March meet
ing for 1889. 1t appears from reports
that each town placed such interpreta-
ton upon the law as seemed best unto
it. In some instances the town clerk
called the meeting to order, in Others
the first selectman opened it in due
form, then again the town clerk per-
formed the duty as in times past. Que
ry, does any irregularity in the opening
Of town meeting affect the legality of
subsequent proceedings, provided no
one takes exception at the time of the
meeting?

Riddleberger closed his career in the
Senate in characteristic manner. He
was not drunk, of course, but his knee
pans worked loose and struck to his
stomach. This led to some mental
confusion and it was found necessary
to take him out where he could cool his
head. Sic transit gloria Riddlebergeri.

LUCKY BoRCHERs.
He Escapes Jail for Burning His Mothers
Barn.

He Escapes Jail for Burning His Mothers
Barn.
George Borchers, the erratic baseball
pitcher, was The least concerned person
who attended the proceedings in the Police
Court against him yesterday. He appreci-
ated the fact that there was not to be any
unusual efforts made TO send him to
prison, and listltssly watched the carrying
out of the programme.
The charge of arson was first brought up.
Mrs. Borchers the prisoners mother, was
called to the witness stand, and testified
that her barn was burned two weeks ago.
That was all. She was asked nothing
about her sons connection with the affair
Police officers Franks and Eldred stated
that Borchers had confessed to them that
he set the barn atire, but did it accident
ally.
A bevv Of young ladies, a neighbor
named Williams and a sixteen year-old
boy-all witnesses for the proseeuton-tes-
titled that Borchers was crazy drunk on
the afternoon and evening of the fire. Bor-
cheers had told some of them that he set the
barn sfire, and was going down that even
ing to get the insurance.
The attorneys for the defense. MesSrs. G.
c. Davis and Add. C. Hinkson, moved for
q dismissal of the case, deeming il unneces-
sary TO introduce any testimony on their
side owing to the weak showing made by
the prosecution.
Judge Devine said it was evident from
the young ladies, the neighbor, the boy,
etc, that Borchers was not responsible for
what he was doing that night, and there
fore the charge that he committed arson
with malicious intent could not be sus-
tanned. The charge was therefore dis
missed.
The charges of threats to kill and dis
turblng the peace against him were con-
tinued for one week

ment. II is said that the story, while pos
s.ssing considerable more interest than is
usual in spectaculars, is merely an auxil-
iary to other features of the production.
Briefly, it is of Zero, the Polar Queen, in
love with the NOR, al Hubert She lures
him to her Arctic regions by employing the
cunning of Boreas, who tempts him
with stories of hidden treasures Hubert
hesitates, remembering that eleven of his
ancestors had persisted in the attempt to
possess these treasures, but Boreas quiets
the young heros fears by stating that the
twelfth of his race was destined TO win the
prize. 1t is from this incident the novel
narrative derives its name, THE Twelve
Temptations" The adventures of Hubert
constitute the action of the piece Both in
New York and Philadelphia the piece met
with great success, which was repeated in
San Francisco. 1t is an elaborate spectacle
laying no claims to dramatic excellence,
but nevertheless brings to the stage some
very clever people, and a great crowd of
handsomely costumed ones, and good
many with the scant robing that is charac-
teristic of this class of pieces.

FOR EMBEZZLEMENT,
Head of Well-Known stockton Fir
Under

Head of a well-Known Stockton Firm
Under Arrest.
Frank E. Austin, of the well-known gen.
eral-agency firm of F. L. Austin & Co., of
Stockton, was arrested in this city last
night on warrant sworn out by Bull &
Grant, the J-srteet dealers in farming i'm
plements, charging him with embezzle-
ment.
The main Office of Bull & Grant is on
Main street, San Francisco. and it was from
there that orders came to the Sacramento
branch to place Austin under arrest. Aus
tin, it appears, also has an Office in the Bay
City, and during recent stay there con-
tracted to make various collections for Bull
g. Grant throughout the country, from
farmers who had bought farming imple-
ments of that firm on time. Austin made
the collections and reported the fact to the
San Francisco firm, but, ii is stated, did not
send the money with the report.
Austin is well known and liked through
out the Stste, and has the reputation of
being honest and uprightin all his business
dealings. AS soon as 1t was learned that
he was in trouble his friends had him out
on bonds last night. Austin states that the
whole matter is the result of business
misunderstanding on the part of Bull &
Grant and that it will be speedily rectified
to-day when the case comes up in the Po-
lice Court. The sum said TO be involved is
but little over 500

Governor Waterman Pardons Youth
Who is Punished Enough.

Governor Waterman Pardons Youth
Who is Punished Enough.
Governor Waterman yesterday granted a
pardon to William Ring, convicted in June,
1885, at San Francisco of robbery, and SEN
fenced to % years Imprisonment at San
Quentin.
Young Ring was charged with having
robbed two men of the sum of two dollars.
The evidence against him was purely cir
cumstantial, as both men were drunk when
the alleged robbery was committed, and at
the trial only one of them pretended to
identify Ring. He was but 10 years of age
at the time, and bore an excellent reputa-
ton, having served his apprenticeship at a
trade, and gained the good will and respect
of his employers. Great uncertainty ex-
lists as to his guilt. He has already served
term equivalent TO five years, and under
the circumstances and out of regard for his
former good character the pardon is
granted.

HOW IT OCCURRED.
A Case, Unrepresented by Attorneys, is
Thrown Out of Court.

A Case, Unrepresented by Attorneys, is
Thrown Out of Court.
When the case of Eugene Lamet We.
Louisa Keslorf was called in Department
Two of the Superior Court yesterday morn
ing, nought but the echoing of Judge Van
Fleets voice through the spacious chamber
responded.
:" Is there no one here to represent this
case-no one connected with it?" inquired
the magistrate.
Nought but the echo again.
Who are the attorneys in the case ?"
asked his Honor
The Messrs. Johnson represented the
plaintiff and Edward NJ Martin the defend
ant.
The Judge instructed the Bailiff to call
all hands at the door. =" Mr.. Johnson, come
into Court" had to be yelled six times
owing to the university of that legal firm,
while Mr.. Martin was called for but twice.
Still no one put in an appearance, and
Judge Van Fleet promptly ordered the case
dismissed and pitched out of Court.
1t was not long after however that Judge
Van Fleets private chamber was invaded
by the senior Mr.. Johnson, who had
heard of the decree, and who explained
their and Mr. Martins scarcity in this wise:
" You see Judge, we agreed with Mr.. Mar
tin outside of Court to continue the case.
Mr.. Martin was agreed upon TO inform the
Court of this fact. 1t appears, though, that
Mr.. Martin was taken suddenly i'll and
could not be present before your Honor
We didn't know of Mr.. Martins illness, so
we weren't there either"
The Judge finally consented to replace
the case on the calendar and continue it.

The Chinatown Shooting.

Suey Kay, the Chinaman who was so
mysteriously shot in Chinatown, on Mon
day night, was in the throes of death last
night. He began to sink rapidly early in
the evening, but rallied again at about nine
o'clock. An hour later there was not the
slightest pulsation perceptible, but the dy-
ing man chung to the life-spark with te-
nacity that astonished City Physician c. B.
Nichols. Even while in this state the
wounded Chinaman conversed with sew
eral friends, and at one time entreated the
doctor to let him walk upt l street TO "see
his t1iends," assuring the doctor that he
would be back in ten minutes.
Shortly before midnight Suey was dressed
by his friends in the regulation death -garb.
consisting of a silken suit of clothes and
cap, new shoes and fan.
The wounded man finally succumbed to
the peritonitis. which resulted from the
wound in his abdomen, breathing his last
shortly before II o'clock.

PROBABLY A MURDER.

Chinese StabbinG on Ranch Near
Florin.
A deadly cutting sffray occurred on the
ranch of Thomas Taylor, nesr Florin,
Wednesday evening, between two Chinese
farm hands. They got into a quarrel over
trifing matter and came to blows. One
of them, known about the ranch as Jim, ("
was getting little the worst Of the battle,
when he suddenly whipped out a long
knife and jsbbed it into his countryman's
left side, after which he slashed him across
the cheek. The knife wielder then left the
place Immediately, and all search for him
proved of no avail.
News was sent to this city to look out
for the bloodthirsty Jim" as it was be-
lieved that he made for this place. The
police were given description of him, and
about O'Clock officers Harris and Carroll
nabbed MoDgol in Chinatown who tailed
with the description to dot. He gave the
name of Lin Kong, and stourly maintained
that he mo ssbee the whole business.
The police believe they have the right
man, however, and will hold him until
parties come over from Florin to identify
him.
Sheriff McMullen went over to Florin
yesterday to investigate the matter, but did
not succeed in gathering much more than
is given above.
Jim's" victim is in very precarious
condition from the thrust in the side, and
il is not believed that he will survive it.

a VIGOROUS KICK.
n Merchants Wife the Bone of Conten-
Hon-A Denunciation

\ well known merchant who has been
greatly benefited by Joys Vegetable Sarsa-
parilla, desired to give it to his wife, who
was very delicate, but out of caution first
consulted his physician, DR.. W. II. Griswold
OF $50 Market street. The doctor, who is one
OF our leading practitioners objected, saying
he had never seen sarsaparilla that did not
contain potash, which thinned the blood
that his patient did not have any vitality to
lose, and that what delicate people need is
not decreased vitality, but more blood. He
however consented when assured that Joys
Vegetable Sarsaparilla was opposed to the
blood thinning idea of other sarsaparillas,
and that on the contrary by specific vegeta-
bic alternatives it promoted digestion, and re-
paired nutrition, hence created new blood
and was the very thing for feeble people.
The above explains the many cases in which
aged, delicate and run down people, have
been built up by joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla
after the potash sarsaparillas failed. Its eff
iects are creating II sensations. T. Examiner
