take the pound of flesh but the blood as

Special to the REcoRD-UEIoN.
SAN Francisco, June 21.-About. 10
o'clock this morning a stranger entered
the grocery store of Thomas r. Holm,
corner of Stockton and Suffer streets,
Carrying letter in his hand, properly ad-
dressed and stamped, but not sealed.
Stepping up to the counter, the stranger
asked for a So gold piece in exchange for
silver, stating that he desired TO lnclose
the money in the letter to be forwarded
to his sister. The grocery store-keeper
was accommodating and handed over the
s.. At the time another party entered,
supposed to be confederate, and kept
talking to MIR. Holm. The party having
the letter asked a number of questions
about registering it, and Holm advised
him what to do. Apparently the stranger
wrapped the s. in piece OF paper, placed
1t inside the letter and sealed it. Putting
his hand in his pocket the owner OF the
letter drew 81 70 from his pocket.
That's not enough said he: i must
get 25 cents more. III just leave this let
ter here till | return. Pill be back IN
q minute and leaving the letter on the
counter he walked out. The confederate
had previously departed.
Holm has the letter and is waiting for
the party to return. The matter was re-
ferred to Carrier Fitzgerald, who in turn
consulted Inspector Irwin, and as the
letter had not passed through the Post
office it was decided TO open it. Instead
of the 50 a new nickel had been carefully
wrapped up and sealed in the letter
Neatly written on a clean piece OF paper
was the following note:
san FRANCISCO, June 90 1882.
Ny Dear Sister: Enclosed find SO. Tel
Tom that the children and myself are ttptop.
We are all anxiously waiting TO make the
trip TO the orld's Fair. Yours, lovingly,
WILL.
The dodge was cleverly worked, and it
was not until some hours after the de-
parture of the clever swindler that Holm
discovered his loss. The grocer is out
81 80, and he has quit changing gold for
silver unless the money is deposited on
the counter The letter is addressed to
Mrs. Ellen MaXson, Iowa.

urday, it was decided to break off all ne
gotiations with the Sacramento County

This is on account OF treachery shown us

ton, and the insult offered the mining
delegates TO the Colusa convention. The
miners have been trifed with too long
and it is not surprising that they now be-

1t is now just about three years
since work was actually begun (Nov.

to be finished in three years more.
The route will be about 40 miles
long, of which % miles at the east

actually canal. 1t may be interest
ing to note that the Panama Canal
if complete will be AZ miles in
length, and the Suez Canal is little
over 100 miles in length, The differ

our chances of transient ship trade,
