CHANGE IN BUSINESS.

The past week change has taken
place in which Johnson, Hill & Co.
buy the groceries in the store of L.

their store and the hardware depart
ment IN Johnson, Hill & Co.'S store is
consolidated with that of L. NJ. Nash &
Co. The latter firm then sell a halt
interest in their hardware store to the

combination which will, surprise many
people. The newly organized firm will
of course be strong one. Every week
brings forth some new changes.

day received an opinion of the supreme
court in the case of Nellie Burton de

The appeal was from the judgment with
out bill of exceptions, and practically
by the defendant Hotchkiss alone. OBJ
lection is made by respondent to the
jurisdiction of the court to entertain the
appeal, on the ground that it does not
appear that the notice OF appeal was
served. The judgment was by default.
The court in deciding the appeal says:
As appellant, according to the allega-
tions Of the complaint, had done moth
ing in the way of performance, and had
parted with nothing, but wholly repudi-
ated the contract and the trust relation,
nothing was required Of plaintiff in the
way of placing him in statu quo ante.
The judgment is then affirmed.

There is very good reason to believe
that the Southern Pacific company in
tend to make move at this point
which will be of great effec. on
the development and progress of this

A HERALD representative learned yes
terday, from very credible source, that
it is the company's intention to con-
struct and operate at this place ma
chine; repair and construction shops, to
Rupply the entire system between this
city and Ell Paso. These shops will
necessarily be of considerable magni-
tude, and will involve the expenditure
of large sums of money in their construc-
ton and equipment.
Another point OF great advantage to
this city in the project, IT 1T is carried
out, will be the accession to the popula-
tion of very desirable class OF citizens
in the mechanics who will be employed.
These, with their families2and depend
ents, would represent an increase of be-
tween 1000 and 5000 souls. The in
crease OF business and circulation OF
money from this source would be very
1t is greatly to be hoped that the re-
port will be officially confirmed. 1t
would seem to be an excellent thing for
the railroad, as the Sacramento shops
are too far away for economical, prompt
service over the tremendous mileage of
the company. They would be, of course,
maintained to. supply the northern
and eastern divisions as far as Ogden,
and the proposed ones here would be
equally as extensive.

CRANKS IN COURT.
ONE MAN CHARGED WITH INSANITY
WAS PERFECTLY SANE.
What Appears to Have Been an Attempt
to Send a Balanced Man to
an Asylum Two Cases
Found as Charged.

Yesterday was lively day in crank 9
for Judge Smith. He had three exam
nations on charges Of insanity, and
committed two Of the unfortunates.
The first one examined was John Nu-
ramacher, who came to this country
from the east about nine years ago. He
has been annoying the people who at
tend the Gospel meetings on South
Spring street, by making inviduous re-
marks, and according to the testimony
of some of the members of the meet
ings, by threatening to blow them up
with dynamite. He became 80 obnox
ious in his actions and remarks, that
they finally had him arrested on charge
of insanity. When called upon to testify,
the young man denied that he had
been obnoxious. He certainly thought
they had not treated him right, because
he believed some of the members had
written to his mother not to send him
any money. He admitted having said
that he believed the gospel meeting
people as crazy as most of the inmates
of the Stockton asylum, and that if they
were all blown up with wind it would be
better for them. 1t developed that
Nuramacher was once before at Stock
ton, where he remained for eighteen
months, and only returned to Los An
geles at the beginning of the year, when
he was released. After careful exam.
nation, it was decided to send him back
again.
An inofensive little Chinaman, name
unknown, who would not talk, was also
committed. He was pitiful looking
object, being almost paralyzed.
The third subject was man whose
case demands a different kind of inves-
tigation than that of an examination for
insanity. He was good-natured look
ing German who, nevertheless, spoke
Gullering, and he was brought from
Azuaa on complaint charging him with
insanity, sworn to by VIM. Storm, at
Azusa, before Justice j. G. Twitchell..
When his case was called there were no
witnesses, and Jailer Russell stated that
he had understood from the constable
who brought the prisoner down, that
the witnesses would be present. Gull
lering was examined, and the physicians
at once pronounced him sane. He
made statement, in which he eaid
he had been placer mining up the
San Gabriel cafion. storm was also
working in the cai1on adjoining him,
and he believed had sworn out the com
plant as an easy manner to get him
away from the claim. If the mans
statement is true, Storm should be
grabbed by the strong arm of the law.
It would be TO the point, also, to ascer-
tain how the justice Of the peace came
to be connected with this attempt to
railroad a sane man into an insane asy-
lum. The failure of Storm to be pres
ent is . significant fact in the case.

1t is not strange that Beecham's pills are so
universally and favorably known when one
considers that the manufacturers make use OF
over $4,000 advertising mediums and spend
about $3.50 900 through them every year
Such liberal use of the press is bound to have
results. and proof is seen in the exceptional
facilities found necessary to employ in the
manufacture of the pills, in order to meet the
enormous and increasing demand; among
them, the pill machine which shapes 10. 600
pills per minute. And, furthermore. in the
fact that the average quantity kept in stock is
81 tons, which means "a, ,684, 200 pills always
ready for shipment. These figures are almost
lofty enough to make ons feel dizzy, but then,

biliousness, indigestion, sick headache, or liver

SALISBURY OBSTINATE.
ENGLAND WILL NOT RENEW THE
MoDUS vlvENDl.

Official Messages Received from London
Said to he Very Insulting--The Presi-
dent Hastily Summoned to Washington
from HE Hunting Trip.
WASHINGTON, March Sit was only
few days ago that it was officially an
nounced that President Harrison would
continue his duck shooting for several
days, and return to Washington next
week. But he has already returned,
and the reason is that very urgent tele-
grams had been sent him.
Another foreign complication de-
mands immediate attention. 1t is far
more serious than is yet known to the
public. Brief mention has been made
in the dispatches from London during
the past two or three days of the action
of Lord Salisbury in regard to the
Behring sea matter. The fact is, the
British government has taken posi-
tion which is more threatening than
any yet assumed in the sealing contro-
versy. Secretary Blaine is much in
censed. He regards the course of the
British government as grievous breach
of good faith.
The official messages received are de-
clared to be insulting. To meet this
unexpected emergency, the president
was hurricdly sent for. It is probable
that the cabinet will be called together
at once to consult on the reply to be
sent

AlGER,S CANDIDACY.
HIS Status in Connection with the Presi-
Dental Nominatfn Cleared.

HIS Status in Connection with the Presi-
Dental Nominatin Cleared.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-The situa-
tion surrounding the Republican presi-
Dental nomination has been partially
cleared within the past week by the
definition of the status of one of the
gentlemen named in connection with
the nomination. Several conferences of
friends of General Alger have been held
to discuss the probabilities in his favor
and it may be said that in Difference to
the views of his friends he has decided
to make no aggressive canvass for sup
port against President Harrison. Among
those who are said to have counselled
this course are the Michigan senators
and Mr.. J. S. Clarkson, chairman Of
the national Republican committee.
They advised him, it is said, to be satis-
fed with the support of his own state
delegation, which it is assumed will be
given him without question.
Then, at Minneapolis, if it should de-
velop that President Harrison cannot
command the support of majority of
the delegates, General Alger and his
friends will be in a position to seek the
votes Of delegates without antagonizing
the administration. This course, they
argue, will result more satisfactory and
substantially than any other he could
pursue.

CEDE LANDS TO STATES.

The Bill for That Purpose Approved by
the House Sub Committee.
WASHINGTON, March 4.-The sub-com-
mittee of the committee on public lands
has completed bill which provides for
the cession of all public lands other
than military lands and lands occupied
as Indian and military reservations, to
the states in which such lands are To-
Gated. This is such an entirely new
proposition, and goes so much further
than the original proposition of ceding
only the arid lands to the state, that 1t
will undoubtedly provoke much discus
sion and its passage be much delayed.
The bill will be presented to the full
committee on Friday and be introduced
in the house next Monday.
