IT IS A BARGAIN.

So Thinks Attorney-General johnson of
the Feeble-Minded Home Site.
The path of the Home of the Feeble
minded Children does not appear to have
been streyn with roses since the introduce
tion of the bill in the Legislature author
izine its removal from Santa Clara county,
if the Trustees deemed it necessary. In
the legislature the Santa Clara delegation
fought the bill bitterly, and but for the
efforts of Mrs. Lathrop and other Trustees
of the Home the bill would have never
been passed. After the adjournment OF
the Legislature Hon. T. 81. Lame OF san
Jose made an argument before Attorney
General johnson to the effect that the Dill
had not properly passed both houses OF the
Legislature. The Attorney General thought
differently, and held that the appropriation
for the purchase of the site was available.
The matter did not stop here, as Con-
troller Dunn announced that he would not
draw his warrant for The purchase of the
site until compelled to do so by the Su-
irene lpurt, as he entertained doubts as to
the legality of the Act. The Supreme
Conrt ordered the warrant issued. Finally
tbe Trustees of the Home selected a site in
Sonoma county. After much delay the
Board of Examiners approved the claim of
e5o GOO for the purchase OF the site, and
Yesterday Controller Dunn drew bis war
yont for that amount in favor Of the Trus-
tees of the Home, and the people of Santa
Clara. who have all along opposed the re-
moval. viii now have to be contented.
There has been considerable said regard

was claimed, was too high. but the follow

No Record as yet Showing that Josselyn's
Sentence Is COMMITTED.
1t has been announced that the Governor
decided to commute the sentence of Charles
Josselyn, convicted of rape in San Fran
cisco and sentenced in October, 1888, to
serve forty years at San Quentin. The SEN
tence is said to have been committed so
that Josselyn will be a free man in next
April. Josselyn was convicted of one of
the most infamous crimes ever perpetrated
in the State. One evening in August, 1888,
Mrs. Margaret Wagner inquired at saloon
in San Francisco for street directions, she
having lost her way. Josselyn and john
Kiley followed her from the saloon and
dragged her into lot, where they outraged
her and left her in an unconscious condi-
ton. From the effects of the brutal treat
ment Mrs. Wagner died. Kiiey was given
fifty years in the State Prison.
Up to 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon no
such Communication had been placed on
record, and the Acting Executive Secretary
of the Governor stated to RECORD U MON
reported that the Governor had not as yet
issued the Communication.

and Restoration.
There was a meeting yesterday of the
committee appointed by the Grand Parlor
of Native Sons of the Golden West to act
for the Order in the matter of securing title
to and improving the old Suffer Fort prop
erty. The committee organized by select
ing Grand President Frank D. Ryan as
Chairman C. E. Grunsky, Secretary, and
Eugene ]. Gregory, Treasurer.
There were present several citizens, who
discussed the subject with the committee.
It was formally announced that the two
blocks of land comprising the property
could be purchased Of the owner, Mr.. Mer-
rill, for $4,000 net.
Committees were appointed as follows to
solicit funds for the purchase of the prop
erty and its Improvement:

tine.
An address has been prepared by the
committee TO be sent to all Native Sons, re-
uuesting that contributions to the purchase
fund be forwarded to the Treasurer, Mayor
E. ]. Gregory of this city.
The committee requests that the loca
canvassing committees set to work at once
as it is desired that the necessary funds bt
secured by the 10th of next month.
The matter is now squarely before the
people, and it is hoped that SacrsmentanI
will do their share toward raising th'
money required to purchase the property
as its Improvement and the restoration o
the old fort will be a great thing for Thu
city. 1t will add another and marked at
traction to the Capital city, which will in
crease in interest with the coming years
And it is an excellent work to occupy thu
time and enlist the energies of the Nativ'
Sons, many of whom might not be in ex
istence to-day but for the aid received b.
their parents at the old fort in the memora
Bile argoraut days.

Attorney General in answer to one ad-
dressed to him by the Governor, shows
that the Trustees secured bargain IN the
purchase of the site:
SACRAMENTO, December 8, 1889.
To His E1eeaencg, r. W. RdteTmd1 Gouer1or-
DEAR SIR: Replying to your communication OF
yesterday in regard to the Home OF the Feeble
Minded Children in Sonoma county, have to
stract of title TO the property, and am of the
opinion that the title is good. The litigation
that you refer TO is as to the course which Is
formed by the water after it issues from the
spring, but not the water Immediately from the
spring before it forms part of the course. The
spring is on the Hill land ! am further OF the
opinion that the selection of the site is most
prudential. Aside from the economic adyant-
ages, getting nearly LOO acres of land about
sixty miles from San Francisco, accessible by
two railroads in close proximity, and some OF
the land the best in the county, for the low hg-
ure of $50, 000; the property is beautifully d.
versifed by hill and dale, and the climate most
salubrious. AS I understand it Mr.. Hill became
dissatisfied when the Board of Supervisors, sit
ting as q Board of Equalization, had up the
question as to raising his assessment, and on
the spur of the moment offered the land for S40,-
CO., This was Immediately accepted by real
estate agent, and the option given him TO pur-
chase in a certain leBgth OF time for that
amount. This was before the Board of Trustees
OF the Heme had thought of purchasing, and
when they had become fully persuaded OF the
superior advantages of the place over other
competitive localities, the purchaser from Hill
cepted by the Trustees. l am credibly in
formed that the property is now worth sIo,OOo
or SS9, 900. G. A. JOHNSON,
Attorney General.

Peter Rooney. undergoing life imprison-
ment in the Folsom State Prison, imposed
upon him in the Superior Court of Stanis-
laus county in March, 1888, on conviction
OF murder in the second degree, had his
sentence committed yesterday by the Gov
ernor to tweHty years imprisonment. The
Governors reasons for the Communication
are that his conduct has been exemplary
he has labored faithfully and diligently at
all tim es in the capacity of foreman; that
he has rendered valuable services to the
State, and that his Communication has been
requested and fully Endorsed by the officers
OF the prison.
Charles Barnett, sent from Fresno county
in February, 1882, for twenty years, for
murder in the second degree, had his SEN
tence commuted to fifteen years, for the
same reasons as in the case Of Rooney.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The announcement of lecture by Julia
Ward Howe at the Congregational Church
next Monday evening will probably stir
more pulses in this city than any similar
announcement that could be made. She
comes visitor from the charmed circle
of the most distinguished names in Amer
lean literature--the lifelong associate of
Emerson, Longfellow, Mrs. Stowe, Lowell,
Holmes, Hawthorne and their intimate
friends. Without question, the first
woman in America in general culture and
literary power, she deserves and will doubt
less receive q loyal welcome. Those
who have thrilled to the notes of THE
Battle Hymn of the Republic" land who
have mott would forego many pleasure to
listen to her voice. No woman is more
competent to answer instructively and
entertainingly the question proposed, rs
polite society polite?" Her appearance
is a most suspicious opening of the season
by the Sacramento Lecture Association,
whose service last year is so pleasantly re-
called by our citizens.

day early, but was unable to appear last
night, owing TO a mishap in the transpor-
tation of the elaborate scenery from the
depot. One truck load came to grief by
the breaking down of the vehicle in the
midst of the heavy storm, and the result
was wet lot Of curtains. The troupe as
sembled at O clock and swarmed upon the
stage, but the stage carpenters were unable
| to get the mass OF scenery dried and up in
time, and Kiralfy dismissed his people with
short speech that caused Carmencita, the
handsome Spanish dancer, to say that she
would have dance any how, and she spun
about the Stage to the amusement of the
crowd of her companions. The manager,
Mr.. Hall, dismissed about 700 people who
came to the doors, with the statement
given. Most of the reserves were renewed
| for tonight, by which time the scenery
will all be in place and restored to its origi-
nal condition, and "Antiope" will be
given. Kiralfy, in response to inquiries,
said he could have gone on with an i'm
perfect performances and the elimination OF
some of the heavier scenes, but it would
not have redounded to his credit or the
satisfaction of the people, and be preferred
to pocket the loss.

THE RIVER.

Not Yet High Enough to Injure Well
Protected Lands.
The continued rains have caused people
to become interested in the stage of the
river these days. II is not yet high enough
to threaten serious injury to well-leveed

would cause farmers some alarm if not in
jury On Wednesday night it stood at 20
feet 10 inches opposite this city, and last
night at 81 feet 2 inches, q rise of four
inches.
The probability is that before it can get
much higher breaks will occur on the west
side above this point and let the extra vol
ume of water out into the great tule basins
