A Young Man Loses His Reason and is
Found Dead in the Woods.
ST. HELENA, September 1Sth.-Our town
was thrown into fever of excitement
Monday over the strange disappearance
from his home of Auguste Rosenbaum, SON
of F. II. Rosenbaum, the San Francisco
merchant. About three o'clock Sunday
morning the young man arose and acted
very qCeerly. He wandered around the
place apparently out of his mind, imagin-
ing his folks wanted to kill him. The en-
tire family tried to pacify him and divert
his mind from his trouble, but to no avail.
About one o'clock in the afternoon be
dressed himself in dark suit of clothes,
and paying no attention to the needing oi
his parents and sisters, started on foot for
st. Helena. Meeting frind he was asked
where he was going. He replied that be
was going to take the next train for San
Francisco. Instead of doing that, however,
he went towards the Napa river. When
near Mr.. Potterton's farm he was asked by
one of the boys who happened to be on the
road, what he was doing there. Instead oi
answering, the young man ran into the
hills. He was next seen near Henry
RAINS place, about one mile farther on.
A searching party has been out all day
to-day but can find no trace of the missing
man. Monday his folks rested quite easily
thinking he had gone 10 San francisco,
where he has relatives living. The father
secured detectives and searched San Fran
cisco, but of no avail
LATER.-About seven o'clock this eyen-
ing the young man was found by
Henry Rain, dead, and in badly decom-
posed condition, near Mr. Rahns place,
some twenty feet from the road. He had
evidently been dead since Sunday, and
must have expired from exhaustion. The
Coroner has been telegraphed for and upon
his arrival an inquest will be held. The
young man was aged twenty three years,
and lived with his mother and sisters at
their beautiful home one and one half miles
above st, Helena.

WILL BE GRAND,
Great Preparations for the Coming Tenn
plar Triennial ConcIave.

Great Preparations for the Coming Tenn
plar Triennial Conclave.
WASHINGTON, September 1Sth.-Chair-
man Parker, OF the committee in charge of
the Knights Templar Triennial Conciaye,
makes the following statement as to It's
success: 1T will be the largest one ever
known IN this country. The conclave st
Chicago in 1850 is said to be the largest one
up to that date. 1t was stated that there
were then II 900 Templars in line. In San
Francisco they had about 5000 Knights in
line, and in st. Louis there were 5000. At
the Washington conclave there will be
220OO knights in the parade. Beside this,
1t has become widely known that the gen.
eral public can come here at the same rate
as the Knights, one fare for the round trip.
and l therefore confidently expect that
from 10000 to 100000 excursionists will be
attracted here by the conclaye. Tickets
will be placed on sale several days before
the encampment meets and will be good
until the latter part of October. There will
be larger representation from the South
than ever seen at the conclave from the
New England States il will be the same.
The Grand Commanderies of Massachu-
sets and Rhode Island will bring 1000
Knights. The representation from Ohio
will be large enough to make one of the
grand divisions, and you can say tie same
OF pennsylvania and Illinois. Then there
will be very large delegation from the
great Northwest, almost out of the world
The Southwest will also be well repre-
sented, while the Pacific Coast, as usual
Will send large number and entertain
magnificently,"

COL. GEORGE FLoURNoY DEAD.

Career of a Prominent San Francisco
Attorney Closed.
SAN FRANeIsco, September lSth.-Colonel
George FIournoy, of the law firm Of
Flournoy & Mhoon, and father of the City
and County Attorney, died at 12:40 P. NJ. to-
day al his residence, COS Castro street. He
has been unconscious for several days and
gradually sinking, the ailment being
Brghts disease of the kidneys, He was
taken i'll last June at Bartlett's Springs, and
although he argued the Spring Valley case
for the city in June in Judge Hoge's Court,
he has not since been himself.
Colonel Flournoy has a somewhat ad-
venturous history. He was born in Georgia
about hfty-seven years ago. His parents
died when he was quite young. He en-
gagged In various occupations until twenty
one years of age when he began to study
law, and few years latter was admitted TO
practice in the State Courts of Alabama.
Then he went TO Texas. During the ad-
ministration of Governor Sam Houston he
was elected Attorney General of that State.
bis term OF Office expired at the beginning
OF the Civil War in 1861, and he organized
| a regiment Tor the Confederacy. He served
| through the whole war, taking part in
many engagements.
Atthe conclusion of the war Mr.. Flournoy
| moved to the City of Mexico, where, for
several years he practiced law and gained a
knowledge of the Spanish language that
afterward proved very serviceable. In 1876
he went back to Texas, settling in Calves
ton, but in 1873 he moved to this city,
where, in 1879, he formed a law partner
ship with John B. Mhoon, son-in-law of
the late Justice Samuel B. Mckee, and the
copartnership has existed ever since.
Mr.. Flournoy has never held any politi-
cal office in this State. although he has at
tended nearly every State Convention for
years. In politics he is a stanch Democrat.
He has large interest in the lands allotted
by the State of Texas to its pioneers.

The Charleston Turned Over to the Gov
ernment, Complete War Ship.
WASHINGTON, September 18th. h.-Secretary
Tracy has been advised that the report on
the official trial trips of the Charleston has
been finished and has been forwarded "a
him. He has received no further official
information as to the results of the trial
but he has private information that the
horse power developed was 6,S16, or 1S4
less tnan the contract calls for. This will
necessitate an imposition of SIS, 400 as
penalty, unless Congress, owing to the de-
fective plans of the vessel, will remit it.
Henry Scott, of the Union Iron Works
of San Francisco, and to the surprise of all
the navy officials, has rendered them the
Charleston ready for acceptance, and as a
complete war vessel. Usually when yes.
sells fail to come up to the requirements
the contractors ask for more trials in order
to escape the penalties, but here are the
contractors of the Charleston offering the
vessel after two official trials. The offer
will undoubtedly be accepted.
In speaking of the matter to the Califor.
MA Associated Press reporter, Mr. Scott said
that OF course they would like to have
come up to the contract, and that if they
had given the Charleston trial trips for two
months before the official trial, as was done
by the Baltimore, he believes they could
have done so, but now they were ready tc
turn the Charleston over to the Govern.
mentas fully equipped vessel and to stand
the penalties.

PUBIC RELIEF.

The speaker in the Conference of Chari-
dies aSathe national session held in San
francisco, who made the following re-
marks, struck the keynote of true reform
IN almshouses:
The poorhouse should be recognized as re-
1ormatory. for all poorhouses, as q matter of
TACT, do become reformatories. The BridgeWater
Reiormatery and Poorhouse in Massachusetts is
uniformly Stunned by tramps, because there in
mates are often committed for year at a time
and all are made to work. Labor in summer is
Just the thing the tramps are not looking for.
Work in pOOrhouses takes time to arrange prop
erly, but it can be done, and it ought to be done
in all the poorhouses of the land "Iet us 90
TO work to try to improve our poorhouses," he
said, land one OF the best ways to work i'm
proVement IS TO enforce labor
There is need of some such reformation
in the almshouses of California for the
most part. AS a rule they are managed
by Boards of Supervisors, the members of
which have never given thought to even
the rudimentary principles of right dis
pensation of charity. Public relief as a
science has never been matter of concern
IN their thought. Nor are they to be be-
rated because of these facts, for such topics
are the study of the few, and the science
referred to is really very modern one
But 1t remains true that the almshouses
and poor-farms of California can be oper-
ated at greatly less cost in most cases than
at present, and with greatly more bene-
tlclal results to the inmates and to the
public, if the experience of others is
studied and ayailed of. Whatever systems
of employment obtain in these institutions
now have no relation to those that prevail
IN other countries, and they depend upon
the whim or the narrow conception of
charity reform that the Superintendent
may have. Here and there are found
model county poorhouses, but the great
mass in this State are burdens of grievous
character, and are administered with very
little attention to the demonstrated econo.
mics of approved public relief systems
There is not, for one thing, that uniformity
IN management throughout the State that
is essential; on the contrary the counties
are frequently found to be engaged in a
struggle to unload the poor upon each
other, and to rid themselves of their in
digent at the expense of their neighbors :;
there is in but few instances any systema-
tized scheme for useful employment of
those able to work; and it is rare indeed
that discipline worthy the name is en-
forced. Poverty and misfortune are in
these institutions too often treated as
crimes, rather than as mishaps that may
be rectifed, or want of providence that
may be reformed. DR.. Wines, the eminent
philanthropist, at the Conference referred
TO, advised frequent interchange of visits
of inspection between Superintendents of
poor-farms, which is thing that Boards
of Supervisors throughout the State ought
TO encourage. The benefits of such inter-
visiting are obvious

CLIMATIC CHANGES.
Interesting Report Upon Them by Sta
tistician Dodge.


WASHINGTON, September 1Sth,-Statisti-
clan Dodge, the Agricultural Department
has just returned from trip to the arid
lands, and has prepared statement refer
ring to transitions in progress which mark
the advance of rural science and practice
in the mountain region. 1t shows how two
hundred miles of desert" beyond the
fatal barrier of the Tooth meridian are be-
ing carved into productive farms without
the aid OF irrigation. 1t does not claim a
increase of rainfall but change of climate.
In cultivated districts there is more
humidity of atmosphere and dews un-
known befores Among the new sources OF
prosperity is the key to the rain belt'
farming, viz: deep plowing, sub soiling.
and frequent cultivation and processes, the
very reverse, OF those pracuced by the
pioneer farmer. Among other transactions
indicated are the removal to higher eIeva.
tions of ranch herds, improvement of farm
animals, of best blood and tendency to
consolidation of ranch and farm ideas.
Irrigation problems are touched upon and
six principle methods of water utilization
hinted at, viz, Natural rain falls, irrigation
by water dew locally available, mountain
storage basin, collection and distribution of
underground currents by galleries, and
canals, pumping and artesian wells.

MARCH OF CIVILIZATION,
In Ten Years Our School system Gro,
Faster Than Our Formulation

In Ten Years Our School System Grows
Faster Than Our Population.
WASHINGTON, September 18th.-H. n.
X. Dawson, Commissioner of Education.
has filed with the Secretary of the Interior
his annual report for the wear ending
June 80, 1883. In the course of his re-
marks he says that from an analysis OF the
years 1S76-77 to 1886 -S7, it appears that the
growth of the system, considering the
whole country, outstripped during that
period the growth of population IA per
cent. This gain the Commissioner saws is
due entirely to the progress of the schools
IN the Southern sections. The sentiment
IN favor OF free schools, supported by pub
lie school systems. in the Southern States
has been undergoing unprecedented deyel-
opment under the laws adapted in each
case to local circumstances, and are now
practically all established on a permanent
basis. Colored children are apportioned an
equal share of the school funds, except in
the State of Delaware, and their schools
are kept open as long and under as well
paid teachers as those of the white chill
dren. The funds for the support Of these
schools are furnished mainly by the white
inhabitants
Discussing the conditions affecting public
education, be continued: "The necessity
thhl LIE couileTn 0IdteS are under OF main
taln1ng two separate systems, should ever
De borne in mind. Statistics show that
about GA per cent. of the white population
OF school age are enrolled, while of the
colored population only about SO per cent.
Compulsory education forms no feature of
the Southern school SYSTEM
In the course of his remarks upon the
public schools in principal cities, The Com.
missioner says: In no department of
city school work is improvement more
manifest than in primary schools, and this
for the reason, perhaps, that in them was
the greatest room for improvement" The
Com missioner says that though thousands
OF dollars have been invested in apparatus
to be used in the 6evelopment of the mind
no provision worthy of serious considera-
alton has yet been made for strengthening
the body upon whose sound condition effec,
tive mental effort greatly depends.
