THE people are thoroughly aroused on
the subject of the reclamation of the Suffer
Fort tract. 1t is now evident that they
will supply the money needed to set the
condemnation proceedings on foot In a
very brief time, and without any notice,
more than thousand dollars was sub
scribed at Lewis & Co.'s yesterday morn
ing for the ''Fort Fund" The thing to
do is to erect some sort of organization to
handle the fund, and to notify the people
where they can subscribe their guarantees,
This organization can also present the
question of condemnation to the Trustees,
and set on foot the proceedings necessary,
if the Trustees consent to the scheme. 1t
might be well to make the organization a
corporation, in order to legally hold the
money and disburse it in the proceedings.
But whether incorporated or not, there
should be set up some reliable body to
whom the people and the societies in
terested can pay over their subscriptions.
1t may be accepted that only condemna-
ton will save the fort tract as reserve,
and all steps taken from this time forward
should be in that direction. If the owner
wishes to stop the proceedings at any time,
it is his privilege to do so by naming
price that is reasonable.

A SAN FRANCISCO contemporary makes
merry over the fact that the Presidents
brother, who is a Democrat, has been ar
rested for maintaining a nuisance in the
shape of pond of water upon his premi-
ses. "Water, do you see ?? says our neigh
Dor, to give point to its joke. Well, why
not? If he goes back on his party like
that, should he not be punished?

An entertainment is announced to take
place in the Castle Hall of the Knights CT
Pythias on the evening of Monday, the
25th, for the benefit of the Good Templars'
Home for Orphans. This is most meri-
torious institution, admitting orphans from
every section of the State, and is in its
broadcast sense public benefaction. Its
title is not meant to convey any idea of ex-
clusiveness, as the only passport required
at its portals is TO be homeless orphan.
Something novel is promised in the way of
the entertainment.

Now THAT both Stanley and Emin
Pasha have failed to effect anything against
the slave traders and slave murderers of
Central Africa, the scheme of Cardinal
Lavagerie ought to be revived. Less than
a year ago he had his seven hundred
picked men enrolled for the expedition,
and there was money enough guaranteed
for him, three times over, to meet all the
expenses of the incursion. 1t was a scheme
that was to move forward with the olive
branch in one hand and the sword in the
other, and behind the latter the ability to
WELD it with spirit that would have con-
quered the Arab hounds who have been
burning villages, killing the old and the in
fants, and carrying the strong and the
middle-aged and the youths into the most
horrible captivity and bondage known to
the world.

At the Metropolitan Theater, on Monday
and Tuesday, the old-time favorite and
sterling actor, Frank Mayo, will appear in
"Davy Crockett and the new play, Nor
dick" The very mentioning of Frank
Mayo's name carries Californians back
along the path of memory to the palmy
days when Mayo had the boards at Ma
CURES, and was cheered by gallery and
risen TO by the dress circle for his capital
acting. Age has but ripened his ability
and broadened the field of the drama for
him. He plays Davy Crockett because the
people want the old border drama, with its
heroic scenes and love passages. Mayo's
aspirations are higher, but in truth
he is the ideal Davy. 1t may
not be generally known that Mayo is the
owner of one Of the three splendid homes
for actors -"Crockett Lodge" at Canton, Pa.
In ''Nordeck" Mr.. Mayo has better oppor-
tunity to show the true metal of the genu-
inc actor. 1t calls for grace, elegance and
power, and he is equal to the demand. His
very simplicity and naturalness in Nor
deck are the elements of his greatest
strength. It is a delightful drama, chaste,
helpful and of sustained interest.

ADJUSTMENTS,

AT the Opera House last night Patti
Rosa had very good audience. 1t was
well pleased with her archness, her versa
tile accomplishments, her dancing and
singing, her banjo playing and her ability
in the mimetic art; out it was bored with
the semi-melodramatic play of Bob"
which without Patti Rosas sprightliness
and archness and grace and wit, would not
keep an audience in the house half an
hour. Tonight she will present 'Margery
Daw," Tom Craven's musical comedy
drama in three acts, which gives both
Patti Rosa and Burt Haverly, her leading
of their mirth and fine low comedy talent.

law presented themselves at tbs residence
of Josias, whom they found alone eating his
supper.
A police officer accosted him, placed MS
hand on his head, on the very spot in tact,
in which the nail had been driven through
his victims brain, and said:
"Josias, you have killed your wife"
The wretch shuddered, and with chatter
ing teeth replied:
ssYes, yes, God has avenged her-tne
book-the book am choking" and fell
dead, struck by apoplexy.
And now, Herr Magistrate, open the Bible
at the place where opened it on my re-
turn from the cemetery-to the page that
Josias himself marked the day before the
crime. Here-Judges, Chapter w., verse
81; read.
The Magistrate took the volume and read
as follows:
"Then Jael, Heber's wife, took nail o.
the tent and took an hammer in her hand
and went softly unto him, and smote TIM
nail into his temples, and fastened IL inte

CHINESE MEDICINES.

The Enlcscy of Precious Stones in Curing
Desperate Diseases.
The medical art in China Is mysteri-
GUS and empirical. The medical pro-
fession is regulated by rules almost the
opposite of those which prevail In
England. In China the doctor re-
ceives fixed salary as long as his
patient is in good health. If the
patient falls ill the doctors pay is
stopped until a cure is effected. In
England Q sick person usually tries to
assist the doctor by explaining the
symptoms of his case. In China this
would be considered an insult to the
doctor. The doctor may feel the pa
tents pulse, examine his skin and
look at his tongue; but he may ask no
questions. He is then expected to
diagnose the disease from which the
man is ailing and to prescribe q
remedy. The medicine prescribed is
usually cheap and very nasty; but
some drugs are high priced; and there
are certain precious stones which are
believed to be of wonderful efficacy in
curing diseases. Ono of these expen-
sive prescriptions consists OF very
costly ingredients. White and red
coral, rubies or jacinth, pearls, emer-
aids, musk. with one or two earths in
