County Official Paper
Another Prediction.

The Sentinel predicted the nomina-
ton OF Mayor Pond by the Demo
Gratis for Governor Of California. It
now predicts his triumphant election
by majority ranging anywhere from
four thousand to twelve thousand.
Pond is as certain to be the next Gov
ernor Of California as an election is to
be held. As matter Of fact, the
whole Democratic ticket will he elect
ed in the Golden State this Fail. The
Legislature will also he Democratic,
and we are to have a Democratic
United States Senator to take the
place OF LELAND Stanford. Steve. NJ.
White, OF Los Angeles, is the man
who will knock tbs Senatorial persim-
mon almost without an effort. Steve
White is the ablest man Of either
party, by long odds, in the State of
California. He will make a great and
winning campaign. Tom Clunre, Jim
Budd and the rest of the Democratic
aspirants will not be heard of in the
race. Neither OF them deserves to he
mentioned in the same month with
Steve White. It is in the air that tho
name Of the Republican party in Cal
ifornia this fall is "Mud," from top to
bottom. Pond for Governor and
White for Senator will sweep TIE field.
Stanford's corrupt millions will not
make a perceptible impression ON the
fghL-Enreka Sentinel.
While we are willing to admit the
Sentinel's superiority as q prophet,
and believing as we do that the Dom
ocrats have a better chance for sue
cess this year, both in Nevada and
California, than they have had for
many years past, we are not quite so
Ranguine as to expect that we will win
the whole works, though it is not i'm
possible. ...

From "Tho Autobiography OF Joseph
jefferson" in tho Century, wo quote as
follows: George Holland was distinctly
an actor Of tho old school, Invariably in
Producing even into modern characters
its traditions and convontionalitics; his
effects wcrc broadly given, and his per-
Sonality was essentially comic. IIo was
quito an old man whom first know him,
and had serious doubts as to whether
our acquaintance In tho thcatcr would
DC an agreeable one: for by tho terms
OF my engagement was to hold lead
ing part ns tho oommcdian of tho COM
pany, and he, who had always occupied
that station, was placed as second to
me. naturally thought that feeling
himself comparatively subordinate, and
that l, younger man, was to outrank
him, no would, by his manner ct least,
resent my intrusion upon his former
ground. was, however, agrccably mis-
taken; for found him too generous q
man to harbor any jealous feelings, and
to my qualification wo wero friends from
our first meeting. 1t is pleasant also TO
know that this relationship extended
his death.
"Tho useful career and unblemished
character of George Holland will DO ro-
called by all who knew him. Ho lived,
bright and cheerful spirit, in this
world for eighty years, for timo could
not ago his youthful heart. He was tho
mcrricst man ever know. Practical
joking was passion with him, and
though his FRANKS wero numerous, by
somo good fortune they always endod
innocently and with harmless mirth.
remember that on ono occasion, when
some goldfish had boon placed in tho
ornamental fountain in Union Square,
Holland dressed himself in full sport
ing suit, and with flsh-basket strapped
upon his shoulder, broad-brimmed hat
upon his head and rod in his hand, he
unfolded a camp-stool, and quietly seat
ing himself in front of the fountain be-
gan to fish, with such patient and
earnest look in his face that no one
could have supposed that it was intend
cd as practical joke. This strange
spectacle soon attn acted curious crowd
about the sportsman, who with q vacant
and fdiotic smile sat there quietly
forced his way through the crowd and
arrested Holland, who explained with q
bewildered look that no was fishing In
his own private grounds. The police
man naturally concluded that the in
trudcr was some harmless lunatic, and,
patting him kindly on the shoulder,
bado him go homo to his friends. Hol-
land burst into food of toars, aud
while affectionately embracing tho
guardian Of tho law oontrived to fastcn
tho fish-hook into the collar of tho po-
liceman's coat, who walked slowly ana
alphabetically away, unconsciously
dragging the line and rod after him.
Tho crowd, seeing tho joke, roared with
laughter, as Holland quickly made his
way to the nearest omnibus, which he
reached before the Infatuated policeman
could catch him."

Ter after the killing. Butler showed
him his pistol and wanted to hand it
to him, but witness would not take it.

Ter dictated three dispatches which he
wrote, one to Buffers brother in Nat
