PROTECTING THE WIDOW.

How Good Old Man Cons 'rued a Pass
age in the Bible.
There dwells not thousand miles ava,
from our good city good old man.
daily reader of the Bible, deacon in th,
church, and the father of grown-up ant
married children. He had been a goot
man for years and was respected by al
who knew him.
But, alas, It's always the good that Satar
seeks to win.
The Prince of Darkness besieged oul
good man, and took into his confidence
wldow-an enchanting widow. The goo6
man resisted, but in vain. The widow
captured him for her master He fell
upon his knees and worshiped her, and she
forbade him not. He took her buggy-rid
ing, to French dinners, and on excursions
to the great metropolis.
His unsuspecting wife, dear, good old
lady, remained at home knitting socks fol
him.
Accompanied by the enchantress, our
good friend hied himself to a tin-type
foundry. They were photographed in low
ing attitudes, and each retained a copy for
future contemplation.
The good deacon's good wife was still
knitting his socks, when one morning he
requested that button be sewed upon his
coat, and, donning his Sunday frock, de-
parted to meet the enchantress.
The good wife mended the coat and, like
| all good wives, searched its pockets.
What did she find?
Why, bless you, the tin-type, and she
| recognized her good husband thereon
Likewise the widow. She swore vengeance
on both, and called one of her grown and
| married sons to her aid. He procured q
gun, but was persuaded to reserve il
| only for the enchantress. who had led the
good deacon from the path of righteous
ness.
The good man came home and observed
the thermometer very high. He soor
learned the cause. But it disturbed him
not.
What do you mean, you villain, vol
deceiver, you hypocrite ?" screamed tn,
wife, and she tore her hair Historically.
| Good wife, pray be calm" replied tn,
| good man, and in GOODNESS he was like
unto the cucumber. Good wife, recollect
what the Bible says: 'Ye shall honor anC
protect the widows That's all l wa!
| doing"
But the good wife's frenzy decreased no
at this audacity, and the divorce papers ar
being drawn up now.

LAKE TAHOE.
Nevada State Likely to Get Nearly All of
that Mountain Sea.

Nevada State Likely to Get Nearly All of
that Mountain Sea.
1t will be remembered that few months
ago Surveyor General Reichert, Z. Grun-
sky and another civil engineer went to
Tahoe to survey the Nevada and California
boundary line in accordance with the pro-
visions of an Act of the last Legislature.
There they met the Governor of Nevada
and surveying party, and the lines were
run. Referring to the result of this work.
the Carson Tribune remarks:
"The California Civil Engineers employed
in surveying the boundary line between
Nevada and California have about COM
pleted their labors. 1t is reported at the
Lake, on good authority, that the line es-
tabiished by Won Schmidt is long way
east of that established by the United
States survey, and that the monument now
marking the boundary between the two
States, erected near the town of Bijou, on
the Won Schmidt line, will be moved west
to Myers, on the Placerville wagon road
near the foot of Lake Valley. This will
give about the entire area of Lake Tahoe

DOING GOOD WORK.
Another Man Convicted of Selling Liquor
to a Bow.

Another Man Convicted of Selling Liquor
to Boy.
Another person, Tony Gerber, has been
convicted by jury for having sold liquor
to boy under Is years of age, named
Harry Fisher. The case was tried in
Justice Henry's Court yesterday, District
Attorney Bruner appearing for the prose-
cution, and 2. f. Wharton for the defense.
The testimony of the arresting officer and
of the boy was so direct as to leave the
learned counsel but little or no ground on
which to base defense.
The Jury recommended the prisoner to
the mercy of the Court, but on what ground
it would be difficult to imagine. 1t was
only couple of weeks ago that another
party was convicted of a similar offense,
and Gerber can hardly plead, with sim
cerity, that he had not had full warning.
The fact is, this thing of selling liquor to
boys should be beneath the act of any de-
cent man. There are scores of saloon
keepers in this city who have too much
honor to do such thing, even if there were
no law on the subject, and all of them who
have been heard to express themselves on
the subject say they have no sympathy
whatever for any man who would be guilty
of such thing. 1t is vile and despicable
practice that oughtto be, and must be, broken
up. The Law and Order League is deserv-
ing not only of great credit for having in
augurated this reform, but should have
the support-both moral and financial-of
every parent in the city.
Men who are themselves drinkers admit
that there is no excuse for the sale of
liquor to boys. The latter have tempta-
tons enough TO contend against, without
having their moral sense blunted and their
health undermined by indulging in intox-
icating drinks. If the law. makers of the
State could only develop sufficient wisdom
to include cigarettes in the same law, and
to make the punishment for its infrsction
severe enough to deter heartless rascals
from violating it, they would be doing an
act OF mercy to the rising generation and
TO mankind in general. 1t is a noticeable
fact that few boys care for cigars or pipes
until they near the age of manhood, while
it is fact that the cigarette-adulterate
as ii is with opium and other deleteriou!
drugs-enchains victims almost from the
start Public opinion should eyerlastingly
frown down any class of men so lost tC
honor and decency as to attempt to prof.
by the debauchery and ruin of the youths
OF the land.

LUCKY CoNv1cTs.
Seven of them Given Their Freedom by
Governor Waterman.

Seven of them Given Their Freedom by
Governor Waterman.
Governor Waterman turned out quite q
batch of pardons yesterday. Seven con-
Victs were, by his order, given their free.
dom.
The first one to be thankful is Alvin
McClelland, sentenced to two years i'm
prisonment for burglary committed in Los
Angeles county last June. In granting this
pardon the Governor explains that the
prisoner was too young to be sent to the
Penitentiary, and also that the evidence,
which was purely circumstantial, was
hardly sufficient 10 warrant a conviction.
George Wilson, convicted of assault with
deadly weapon, in San Francisco, is par
doned because he had never been really
convicted. he was tried once, but the Jury
disagreed. Wilson, being then without
funds, and impatient, withdrew his plea OF
not guilty and entered one of guilty.
Edward DAILY, convicted in Sonoma of
furnishing liquor to Indians, is next in
line. 1t appears that he met two Indian
boys out on country road, and was not
aware that he was violating the law when
he gave them drink from his flask when
they asked for it.
William G. Morrison, a well-known
straw bondsmann of Frisco, is also free.
He swore before Superior Judge Murphy
that he was man of wealth, in signing a
bail bond in August, 1887, but it was after
ward proved that he could not pay his beer
bills, and he was given six years for per-
jury. The Governor excuses Morrison on
the ground that he must have been drunk
when he signed that bail bond.
Next is Manuel Alyez, convicted of bur-
glary in Santa Barbara, and sentenced to
FIVE years imprisonment. Alvez was only
thirteen years of age when sentenced, and
the Governor considers tina. he is now suf-
fciently reformed.
James s. Lear, convicted in Tehama
county in 1885 of counterfeitiDg aud given
q ten years sentence, is given his pardon
on the ground that be was convicted on the
testimony of disreputable people.
John Venahle, convicted in Santa
Clara of DEMONSTRATING, is the last
on the list. Vensble is but six
teen years of age, and the petition for
mis- release bears the signatures OF many
prominent people of Santa Clara county.
