1t has always been held that the col- fusion of parties 10 an action of divorce operated as . bar to a decree uissols- ing the bonds ot wediock. 50 stringent in fact IS the requirement oi the law demanding a complete alienation. that even ordinary association or living under the same roof. vas accepted as a con- donement of any offense tn plea. liap- pears tina, that venersted prlncipi. oi laS has lapsed into an obsolete practice. The condition IS entirely dis. egarded. A few days ago Judge Greene, of the Alameda Superior court, granted a woman divorce from her husband on the groune ot desertiou The defendant is the son of wealthy merchant of Chi cago. He was anxious to be relleved of his wlte and did not contest the suil. A document was filed wlth the county clerk of Alameda whIch reveals the animus Uf the pai,ies to the divorce. The ex-wiie acknowledges the receipt of $I,oo psti by her husband. and releases hlm from every claim or demand which she may have against him.

The English syndicate formed to buy

The English syndicate formed to buy
 up all the great brewerieA in this coun-
 iry has not been as unsuccessful as q, first intimated. These Britons are pro- verbally hard headed, and for shre~d. ness aud pertinancity are ahead of our spe -ulative people. They are given to blnf1ing, but in their bluffs there is a system. The syndicate has contrived to break the coalition of American brew CTS snd carried of prize from the com bination aryed against it. It has at last got within the meshes, the second largest brewery established in the coun. try. the famous Ballaatine, of Newark. The price paid for the plant is about $5.ooo. 900. The aggressive attitude of the british brewers will inaugurate competition in the importatant artI. cle of beer. which will effect the price of that beverage to such an axtent that it may beome almost as cheap as water.

The Southern Pacific company has
 filed notification of its determination to withdraw from the transcontinental association at the expiration of the ninety days required by agreement The cause of the action originates from the course of the association Tn permitting the Ca nadian Pacific to carry freights at lover rates than are allowed the American lines. thus reducing the latter to a plane of disadvantage Tn the field of compe- tiiion. The Canadian Pacific submitted schedule of rates, and its acceptance was made peremptory condition upon which 1t would enter the combination
 It alleges that on accouat of the diff culties Tn its path, its length of mileage. its inaccessibllty to trade, it must be al- lowed lowei rates in order to get its proper ratio of traffic. This demand was granted with the result of its getting the most important proportion of the traffic. The Southern Pacific deemed t better to break up the pool than allow is grasping rival to absorb the carrying trade of the coast, and the effect will be the virtual winding up of he association. This IS not to be re- for these alliances of power ui corporations are ruinous in their ten iencieS. Competition means resistance O the encroachments of monopoly.

More than a thousand men are now engaged in removing the bodies of the Ill lated victims of the Johnstown horror, from the debris ia which they are entan- gied. The state board ot health Is, at present. the supreme authority in the
 field ot death and decay. The question that ovrrshadows all others Is to avert a visitation more menacing than any danger which has threatened the popula ,ion adjacent to the sorrow stricken dis. trIcls. Sanitary precaution are para mount to question of mere sentiment. There are now thousands of corpses rap idly d,composing and emitting malaria that wlii inevitably breed epidemic, un- less the proper measures he adopted to avertthe impending danger. The cry is for cremation, and the bonfires will be the funeral pyre of the mass of insnimate humanity that IS fostering beneath the ardent rays of the summer sun. Rever- ence for the dead must yield to the safety of the living.

udge Laidlaw, of Oakland, IS mad. The sung ot the hornet Is not more prloklng than the caustic words m winch ne reproved jury in his court, whose wrath he incurred by keeping. them lock eu up thirty-hve hours because they would moi agree on a verdict It was composed of solld business men, who were empanneled after two days stIenu- ous exertlons 10 secure twelve men, good and true. The offending cause ot all this turmoil was an almond eyed celestial, accused of dealing in lottery uckets. Alter prolonged siege they were discharged, standing nine tor ac- qulltal and three for conviction. Tne incensed judge stigmatized the conduct of the jury In virulent language. His lnyectives savored ot ferocity in excoria- ung the stubborn jurors. He charged them and men of their class as belnR responsible for crime. He fearlessly al
 legged that they were accessory to the fostering of corrupt practices, and that they had no regard for the admln- lStratlon of law and justice. Reversely the jurors with blood in their eyes signed an indignant protest againt the dictatorlal acton ot the effesvescing judge They retaliated m terms equally acrimonious, denouncing the system oi compelling men to serve on juries with out corresponding regard for their comfort. They were compelled to pay
 tor ther own meals, and to cap the cll- max they brought their own blankets to shield them from the humid air of the room in which they were locked up, and these were stolen from them by the eff claIs who guarded them during their deliberations. Moreover they were as good and as conscientious as the judge himself, who was guilty of unpardonsble lmpertinence Tn impugning their con duct. The jurors are stIll on the war path.

The death of man ot means, is nov

The death of a man ot means, Is now almost certain to be the occasion of a contest over his estate. No matter how clear and distinctly expressed the will may be in its bequests, nor how direct the intent and spirit, some flaw is sure to be picked on which pretext IS founded on for its cancellation. This may be accounted for by the imperfec- ton of our language, which IS rePlete with anachronisms and eccentricities. but in the main is due to the insatiaie cupidity of disappointed heirs. The roll of decedants whose wills were as clearly dictated as the use of plain words could convey, and whose disposal in obedience to its conditions IS obstructed Is but endless. The calendar of the courts in San Francisco is frelghted with cases in- volving the breaking of iestaments, and the estates in dispute are rapidly becom- ing impoverished by incessant litiga- ton. The latest instance of stub born efforts to invalidate vill is now engaging the attention of the probate count of that city. Byron O'Conner, a wealthy dry goods merchant, died leav- ing an immense estate. A few hours before his death, in fnll possession of his mental faculties. he executed will He made modest beques,s to h,s sisters aud the residue, about two-third of the whole. to the widow, but she Is no. sat isfied, she wants the whole.

Canadian politician. and public m,

Sshaoisu pohtietAus auo PuuttC tuSi are indulging in the most bombas,lc threats regarding the course of this country m asserting it's exclusive juTis-- dicuon over the Behring's sea They declare tha, lhsir sealers will go no,th as usual and will resist seizure IL ove.- powered, British cruisers will protect them. Such grandiose talk IS merely the bluster of an insignificant vassal whose reliance upon the prestige of bis master gives vent to a reckless bravado which is iil becoming even the provin- cial. The little dominion is a thorn in the side of England and the imperial government is more ready to relieve itself of an incubus, than adding to his em- barrassment by needing the que'ulous and truculent exhibitions of temper of It's ward. There is no danger of demon. stra,ion by England against thls country on account of Canada's . arrogant assumI- tions than there is an irrup,ion on our shores from the savages ot the remo.est corners of the globe.

dispsragement of our own, is manifestly injudicious. One system is founded on a democratic principle, which rscog- nizes the claim of the humblest individ. aal to the perquisites of office. while in the other the distribution of patronage is ala inciden, to arislocratic prefermen'. The secretary of the civil service board acknowledges that the examinations are farcioal, and that it has been clearly shown that positive fraud has been prac- tieed in securing places of emolumen' through the clumsy machinery of the commission.

The magnitude of the lottery schemes


 in winch the Chinese of San Francisco are engaged may be conceived by the state ment that the police have seized two hundred cases of blank tickets. The number of these tickets is over s.ooo,- 900, which make bulk of nine tons of paper It IS significant fact that notwithstanding the frantic hostility dis played by class of people in that city towards the mongolian element. it is this very class of agitators who are the most requent and indeed almost exclu- siyely the most improvident patrons of Chinese lotteries. The Chinese are no- enthusiastic gamblers, but their peculations are limited to their own cir c'es. The great number of gaming rem dezgous in the Chinese quarters of that city and their hourishing commerce in occupations ok hazard and chance are abstted and encouraged by the whites. who assume the most offensive airs of dlsdaln and hatred for the heathen.

The progressive tenderness of the age are amply demonstrated by the loose rein gwen to feminine idulgences. The poetry of life has yielded Tn these days the prosaic diversions which cater to the vicious inclinations of the grosser part of our nature. The sanctity Of home life Is given away to the invasion of the coarser elements of existence which menace the disintergration of society.
 Women are becoming restless at the pas sive destiny. which the eternal laws of the universe have prescribed m their in scrutable operation. Among the multi plicIly of instances which can be adduc- ed showing the laxity of social relations and the disregard for the family hearth. the appalling record of our courts in divorce litigation are significant Wit neSses. Women m these days of hard materialism ann to ape men, not in their nobler qualities of generous manhood, but in their weaknesses and derelictions. Even England, conservative as she is in her forms and requirements of social  etiquette, Is shooting ahead in its asser- tlon of female autonomy. Only of late, a coterie of fashionable women in Lon don, assembled at a fast restaurant, secured themselves from public observa- ton and indulged in a satarnalia, which would abash men of ordinary feeling. These women mingled in a debauch among themselves. emptying bottles of champagne to the dregs, smoking cigar cites and indulging in the boisterous and at time blasphemous vernacular. which would have rejoiced the heart of San Francisco hoodlun. The guests at the banquet were not women of the lower class of society. but belonged to the lit- erary or the more advanced of the mid.- de class, the wives and daugters of merchants and bright luminaries of the legal profession
