THE ELK GROVE MYSTERY.
Examination of Young English as
His Mental Condition.


His Mental Condition.
Since his arrest, Thomas English, alias
Baltz, the young man who shot his STEP
father, Joseph Morrow, at Elk Grove sew
eral weeks ago, has continued to rave and
give other evidences of insanity, and it
was finally decided yesterday to have
him examined as to his mental condition.
Doctors Simmons and Sutliffe were
sent for, and in company with Superior
Judge Catlin made an examination of
English at the County Jail. The young
man substantially repeated the story told
by him after his arrest, and which was
published in the RECORD UNION at the
time. He still claims that he was King
of the United States, and that through
the Vaccinations of Morrow he was de-
posed. Although English is under
thirty years of age and Morrow is over
sixty, English stoutly maintains that he
is Morrow's father and that he had a right
to kill him if he wanted to.
AS the physicians desire to know more
about the case than the statement made
by English the further examination of
the young man was postponed until to-
morrow, when Morrow and others will
testify.
Morrow has almost entirely recovered
from the several wounds inflicted by his
Step-Son'S revolver.

Views of a Woman Upon Question of
Public Interest.

Public Interest.
EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: The subject now
being agitated regarding a home for our
Governor is one in which every loyal
citizen cannot fail to feel an interest
Allow me to express through the columns
of your paper the views of woman, for
nowadays women have views and interest
in all the topics of the day, albeit they
may have neither voice nor vote in the
matter. For many years the mansion
built for the Executive home, but trans
formed into public office, has been an
unpleasant object to me whenever my
outings have taken me in its vicinity.
Womanlike, / had woven the little ro-
nance of life around it when its walls
first stood raised against the sky, and the
picture dwelt in my mind of the honored
men and women who should pass
in and out its hospitable doors. The
pride / felt in all the glory and
hospitality of our grand State and Capt.
tai City received dreadful crush when,
instead of the strains of "Home Sweet
Home," the tinkle of crystal and the flash
of Jewels in our handsome mansion, it's
walls were doomed to echo the thump
and groan of machinery, and reflect the
flash of its cold steel arms. while out of
its doors go not the honored men and
women of the day, but the winged sheets
Oh tf1e SdtueTeG WlSCOlil Vi our great law
making Legislatures. With delight /
hail this agitation of the subject of a resi-
dence for the men whom this State shall
honor by placing the executive power in
their hands. May the subject never rest
until such place shall be secured, and
our State honor itself by providing in
its Capital City residence where its
Chief Magistrate can find the comforts
of home, and receive friends and
strangers as becomes the dignity
of our State. Let our present Legis-
lature put itself on record as looking
at this matter in the light of progress. and
for the glory of our State take action in
the matter. l most sincerely hope their
taking thought and giving the subject
some attention, will result in the purchase
by the State of what is known as the Stef-
fen's property, at Sixteenth and III streets,
which seems best fitted for the purpose,
and can be secured. That mansion prop
erly furnished and placed at the disposal
of the Governor, would be credit to this
State and to our Capital City. That such
may be L know is the wish of many
women, as well as the one who here ex-
presses it. n. Z. f.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $1o
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re.
Gently purchased twelve thousand acres of
land in the heart of Tehama County for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land to
land of fair average quality, and is offered
at from $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions
OF 10. so, 120, 160 and320 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal a N
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is TO have five years in which
to pay five equal annual installments, with
interest at the rate of per cent. per annum
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre.
and good agricultural land at $40 AN acre.
with other grades of land at prices to GORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es.
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot bA
had in California for less than from $50 h
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to-
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an re,and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at SO an acre, on terms
ofpayment which should make the dispose
ton of these lands to actual settlers result
easy of Accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase ofthis
body of land was the breaking up of large,
holding for the purpose of promoting its settle
ment in smaller quantities and its devotion to
diligent husbandry.

A DOCTORS REBUKE.
Immensely More Mischief than is Gen.
orally Suspected.

Dr.. King, the eminent medical writer, In
alearned disquisition on our national com.
plant, constipation, says
The great quantity of cathartic pills, etc.,
which are taken by the people of this coun-
try are productive of immensely more mis-
chief than is generally suspected. True, the
physic unloads the bowels, but its action
tends to diminish the tone of the intestines;
30 that, instead OF removing costiveness, IL
aggravates it, leaving the bowels in a more
torpid condition.
Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla was designed
to fill just such contingency as the doctors
arraignment anticipates, viz: instead of be-
ing powerful mineral purgative, it is
mild vegetable laxative, that owing to its
solvent and gentle stimulating properties, is
10 certain relief in constipation that it has
been given away to hundreds, not to be paid
for unless it was of positive benefit. It re-
places constipation almost Immediately
with natural easy habit, and is so mild
that, unlike drastic purgstives, 1t can be
taken indefinitely with perfect safety.
