Property Owners Satisfied With
the New Park Assessments.
The board of public works had under
consideration yesterday the proposed
assessments of property benefited by
Indian Mound, Mound and Lincoln

heard. The board was agreeably sur
prised, in that nearly all of the citizens
heard were satisfied with the proposed
plan of assessment and the amounts
levied. The kickers were few. 1t is
proposed to tax all property facing the
parks about $40 a front foot and to levy
a proportionate assessment on benefited

Terror to Evildoers.
HALIFAX, N. S., Aug. 19.-The New
foundland government is enforcing the
bait act with good deal of vigor. One
cruiser. the Lady Glover, has made
eight seizures this season. The mas
tiers of two of the vessels were sentenced
to pay fine of 81. 900 each or to undergo
five months imprisonment. The others
were imprisoned for terms of from five
months downward. To show what
shifts owners and masters of schooners
are now put to, and the articles that
have to be resorted to in order to get
bait, it is but necessary to describe the
plan adopted by one detected French
vessel. In her false bulk-head was
built next to the cabin. Three pieces
of decking were cut out, and the space
was filled with herring. In order to
hide all traces of the dodge, seine was
carefully spread over the decks.

Texas Fever Breaks Out in st.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 19.-Texas cat
tie fever has made its appearance in ST..
Louis, and there appears to be con-
spiracy to prevent discovery of the
fact. Some time ago number of cat
tie consigned from Texas became
afflicted in pens here, and thirty-fve
died of the fever. Since then number
of mich cows in that vicinity have died
from the fever. and there is some alarm
as to the city's milk supply. Health
Commissioner Dudley denies the ex-
istence of the fever, while the dairy IN
spector does not credit it. Cattle
men, however. claim the disease from
which the animals died was Texas
fever pure and simple.

The annual report of the CoafaIs- si0ner cf the General L.nd Office, which has just been fled, contains a list of the reservoir sites in California winch nave been withdrawn frem set, clement during the past summer. The list embraces Clear lake, in Lake coun- ty, with all lands situated within tive miles of the borders ef the lake; Inde- pshdonce lake, in Nevada county, and lands adjacent; Donner lake, Tn Nsvse da county, and the adjoining lands and Webgsr lake, in Sierra county, with lands bordering thereon.
 These reservations confirm what the Chronicle has already pointed out, tbat the United States stands committed in a measure t5 { national scheme ol irrigation, the iicst step ID winch is the securing and preserving of reservoir sites, Any successful plan of irriga- ton in the United States, that is, where it is needed, must take into ae- count the intermittent nature of that irrigation, and that intermltteney ean be prorlded fer only by the reservoir system. Where, as is tEe case in some parts of California, irrigation is need. ed for month or two, and then has to be suspended. and renewed later ln the seasen, storage of water is tho on ly tbIng which wlll do, and it is with knowledge ef this fact that the Gov ernment is turning it's attention first to reservoirs. There is every reason to believe that Congress will take the subject upin earnest, and the report of tine Arid Lands Committee will prove a mine of information for that body.--S. F. Chronicle.

Scandal ssongers.

It is often remarked that humanity is degeneratlng and that people are not so good as they used to be. We do not believe this; on the contrary, we believe that in proportion to in- tellectual advancement people grow better, But we are free to confess that there is one phase of humanity that is and has been on the downward grade, and that IS the disposition to islander and baekbite opponents, rivals and nelghbors; and to make matters mere convincing, they parade in vivid eolors the faults of their imaginary enemies. Sanders are retailed with as much gusto as truths. Anything that detracts from or tarnishes aroih- CTS reputation IS precious morsel. It is true that the worlds history shows that such people never rise high lu pubic esteem, and if eyer trusted with responsibilities they are sure to disappoint those who trusted them, and their slanderous tongues waf on, and they iass down to the grave des- pised, unhonored and unknown, ex- cept for the mischief and discontent they have made. Such scandai.mon- gers are friends to those from whom they expect to derive immediate and continued fayors, but they will desert a lie tune benefactor III his old age, the moment these favors cease. We take no pleasure, though forced to know t exists, in dwelling upon this dark side Of human nature, but thank God that large nsajority of humani- ty IS actuatsd by correct motives, and wculd much prefar giving a helping hand 10 lift up, than to push down their fellow townsman.

Jurv Reform.
IS. F. Exalniner. !

The interviews that appeared Tn the Examiner on Monday ip rela ton to the need for reform in the jury sys- tem showed quits clearly that what ever tue ideal method Of trying cases mlght be there was general oissatiS- iaction with the present state of af- fairs. And no wonder. A visit to any courtroom enlisened by jury trial would be enough to set any thoughtful observer to wondering whether ths sorry exhibition tould really be the palladium of our lber- ties, and whether, if so, palladiun, could be considered such very de. hgbtlul thing after all.
 The idea of compulsory service still holds ! firm place in tue legal ruina, although in many instances tempered by mere liberal ideas In regard to fees. The injustice of requiring jurors i'll crimlnal cases to give up their time for nothing while lawyers, judges and baiiffs are paid, IS generally adInn ted.
 
 Whatever we decide to do, or ntt to do, it must be taken for granted that there Is no institution so venerable that it can escape the necessity of jus tifying its existence. In thls ege in yestigationS are searching. They go to tue roots of things. Nothing can maiataIn itself merely by proving that it has stood 2 long tune. Mir. Eigh- ton announces with dogmatie smpha- sis; "Men who talk Of abolishing trial by jury should be sent to Napa We must adhere 10 one Of ihe grandest works of ihe old lawmakers. And yet Mir highton knows that our sys- tenn of jtay ifial is moi work of any old lawnlaker, and that the assembly ot witnesses gathering together to compare notes about an incident of their personal knowledge, which con- stltute3 iLa original jury, was as tit- ferent from the present body of con scripts selected for their ignorance of the facts in dispute. as well as of al- most erything else, as tie modern jury can be from anything thatia ike. ly 10 succeed 1t.
 The truth is that the jury system has undergone an enermous develop ment since the days of its first tenta tive beginnings That development is not ended yet and 1t may hare to be earned considerably further before the institntlon will be in harmony with our age, as if kept itself uneon- sciously in harmony with past ages before tho prevalence of law books came in 10 petrify t.

". II. II. Clark, of St. l4ouia, has found a means of purifying water wlich IS only novel as to the mode of preparing tho purifier. He simply disSolyes alum by pouring boiling hot water upon it. Only one drep is nee essRry for gallon of water. A tea spoonful will clear a barrel of water, carrying all tho solid and vegetable matter to the bottorl. Mir. Clark thinks that the water in reservoirs could be thus cleared and settled at tho cost of twenty cents for every milton gallons provided the alum is dissolved in hot water. Alum has long been used as q purifier of water, but whether it has before been prepared according 10 Clark's formula we are unable to say.-Tucson Citizen.

En6'na Mission sc,,oels.

During the fiscal year ending June %, 1886, contracts amounting to S174,- Sl9 were awarded the various sscta rian missionary preparations for mis- sion schools among the Indians. The next year the amount was increased to s309,174, and in 1888 1t reached $322, ,824. During the fiscal year just closed, June 30, 1889, the Government expended Sa76.190 for Indian mission schools under inc direction of secia- rian societies. Iturng each of these years the Catholic societies have re- ceived more than half of the amount. it has heen expended under the direc- ticn 9f the Bureau of Catholic Mis- slons. The PreSbyterians, the Episco- palians, tue Metho6ists, the Lutherans and a fsw other Protestant dsnomina tionS have been awarded school con- tracts Ia 1886 the Catholics handled $ll8,3t8. and the Presbyterians came nezt with only $32 995. In 1885 the Catholic missions expended S12f,635 for the G5verhment, and the amount allowed the Presbeicrians was in creased to &37 ,9l0 For the year end ing June 30, 1888, the Catholics re- eeiyed :s221 i69, and ths allowance of tbe Presbyterians vas reduced to S36,Gto. DGr;ag the fiscal year just closed the Catholic missions were awarded s3i7,672, the presbyterians got s4i ,625, the Episcopalians SIP ,15Q, and the Methodists S2725.
 Out of a total oi 45O6,99 set apart for Indian mission 5h0uls for th9 iiS- cal year ending June 30, 1890, tie Catholics have been awarded contracts amounting 10 S356, 49l; the Presbyte- rlaas rank second, with S47,650; the EpiscofaIiahs got $l0,ll6, and tie Asthodists $8950; other chut kes get small amounts. As WAS tae case du- ring the entire DemocFatio Admins trauoa, the Catholics have been award ed more than halt the annual fund. But Commissioner Morgan has noti- fed sii the Church societies that after thls gear they need not expect aa in crease in the fetal amount for the schools. It Is not improbable that some sort of readjastment may be made by which the allowance to the Catholics will be slightly reduced and tie awards to the other societies cor. respondingly increased. It's possible that the allowance of aii of them may be reduced and that after few years the entire system of awards for mis- Fion schools may be discontinued. The Commissioner believes that the Government should cencnot fha h. i dian schools inst as tbc seFera!s States conduct tue pubic schools for white children. fife present plan of award ing contracts for mlssi0n schools to various churches and missionary so- cietles is ,nconyenient and has many bad results, among which my he in eindea Seetarian jealousy The forth coming report of the Commissioners vii doubtless contain some recon nendation in tbB direction indicated and 1t IS probable that all of tae In dan mission schools hefore lcag wili 1 haye io depend entirely upon their re- spective churches and missionary so. cieties for support. lie result viii probably be newer, better and moro extended system of Government schools for the Indians al all the sgen. ! cies $n2 throughout the several rescr'
