A meeting of the County Commis&0hsrs
from the several counties of the State was
held in Baltimore on Thursday of last week.
A lively discussion was INDUCED in over
various matters requiring legislative action.
The meeting was more for the expression Of
views than for definite action on any one
subject. A committee of one from each
county represented at the meeting was ap
pointed to confer with the members of the
Legislature as to the feasibility of extending
the terms of office OF the County Commits
sioners and such other legislation as will be
to the best interests of the respective coun-
ties of the State. The meeting adjourned
subject to the call of the president.

guardianship should be necessary pre-
requisite to the taking effect of the order
appointing guardian of a minor that
does not obtain with equal force to an
order appointing guardian of an in
competent, and am of opinion that it
was the intention of the Legislature that
the amendment Aforesaid should apply
to the appointment of any guardian
under said act of 1850; that Morris We.
Harris, Is Cal. 256, does not give ex-
preston to the law as it stood ct the
time of the appointment OF Alice Mat
field, guardian OF the person and estate
of plaintiff, and she not having taken
oath OF Office and no letters of guardian
ship having been issued to her, she did
not become invested with the Office of

The ruling upon these two points rem
ders it unnecessary, and time will not
permit discussion of the other ques-
tions go ably argued by counsel in their

1t follows that the agreed statement
of facts will be adopted as the findings
of the court, and the legal conclusion
therefrom is that the defendant is en-
titled to judgment, and it is so ordered.

TO SELL MORE PROPERTY.
Another Petition Granted for Receiver
Pauley YESTERDAY,

ouASy ACStSAooys
Receiver Frederick w. Pauley, of the
Southern California National bank, of
San Diego, yesterday submitted petit
tion to Judge Ross, of the United States
district court, setting forth that among
the assets of the bank is certain two
story building in Horizons addition to
the city of San Diego, said lot being the
property of G. Gilbert Wheeler, and was
under lease to J. w. Collins; said lease
was assigned to E. J. Swayne, trustee,
for the benefit of the California National
bank, as q creditor of. w. Collins, and
expired on the 10Th of February, 1892.
The lessor having demanded an increase
of rent, owing to the expiration of the
lease, petitioner was compelled to
agree to pay the sum OF $87. 80 per
month, whilst the receipts from the
tenants occupying said building amount
to $83 per month, and further the rent
is.liable to be increased at any time
with no prospect Of an increase of rents
from tenants.
The receiver, therefore, asked for per-
mission to sell the building. The petit
tion was granted.

He Cant Believe the Court.

Public Administrator Murphy fled a
notice of publication of notice to cred
itors in the matter of the estate of lima
A. Short, the man who turned up alive
a few days ago. The court also made
the order that sufficient notice had been
given to creditors. The fact that Short
is still alive cannot stop Mr.. Murphy
from continuing the administration Of
the estate He holds that as sufficient
notice had been given of the ,applica-
tion Of letters OF administration Of the
estate of the supposed dead man, and
there being no answer or objection
thereto. Short is forever stopped from
appearing and asserting that he is not
dead. The law has declared him dead,
and dead he therefore should be.-Butte

Coal outnut for 1891.

The coal consumption is generally con
sidered to be the best measure of the in
dustrial activity Of country. This rule
would hold good for this country during
the past year. when general industry was
active and prosperous, though a few
branches suffered reaction. We find
that the output of anthracite, of which
we have full and accurate returns,
amounted in 1891 to AZ .S39, ,779 tons OF
2,24O pounds, while the production OF
bituminous coal, which is in part esti-
mated. amounted to 9S,000,000 tons.
Prices of coal were, in general, lower
than in 1890. though the anthracite trade
being regulated" maintained, during a
portion Of the year. rather higher prices
than in the previous year.--Engineering

right Between Shark and Whale.


On the trip to FIJI and back of the
steamer Ovalau, just concluded, Cap
tain A. w. Cameron and his officers
saw strange encounter. The steamer
was going along at about ten knots in
midocean, when a commotion was OBJ
served in the water ahead and the body
of huge marine animal or fish, with
what appeared to be great dippers, was
to be seen rising and falling Captain
Cameron steered direct for the stranger
On approaching close the commotion
was found to be caused by whale,
over thirty feet long. fighting with a
thrasher shark.
The latter apparently was having the
best of the combat, as the whale kept on
the surface Of the water comparatively
quiet while the shark ever and anon
threw itself out of the water and
brought its tail down with a terrible
blow upon the whale. The Ovalau was
SO close to the animals. which were too
much occupied to heed the vessel, that
either could have been touched with a
pole. The captain could not stop his
ship long enough to observe the result Of
the conflict. Zealand Herald

Time to Denosit.

An old Roxborough citizen, who had
no faith in banks as a place to deposit
money, carried all his earnings with him
wherever he went While on his way
to Philadelphia recently he was accosted
by stranger who wished to ride in his
carriage. The request was granted, and
when opposite Laurel Hill cemetery the
stranger attempted to cut out the trou-
sers pocket of the old gentleman. The
instrument went in too deep, cutting the
leg badly. He yelled Justify, and the
stranger disappeared up a ravine and
escaped. Twenty-Five hundred dollars
were deposited in bank to the old mans
account that day.-Philadelphia Record.

Santa Fe depot told me yesterday that
he had checked over 200 tourists for the

put in circulation by their presence is
tremendous, gee in the HERALD that
Judge Silent states he will put his place
in at such figure as to make it big

if the Judge will do that the matter
ought to be easily settled. Everybody
admits the necessity for such place
and all that i5 needed is to find some
body to start the enterprise"

General Beauregard's Letter to Colonel
Mosby.
General Beauregard has recently writ
ten letter to Col. John s. Mosby,
in which he says he had always con-
demned as dangerous and ill advised
the Gettysburg campaign until he read
the colonel's late articles on that cam
paign, but the colonePs explanation of
it induces him to withdraw that con-
demnation. To all familiar with the
circumstances Of the battle of Gettys-
burg, it has always been known that
it was brought on without General Lees
knowledge; that he was led into it in or
der to save the division that did bring it
on; and that he bore the blame for it,
as for that of all his army's other mis-
haps, patiently and without the slightest
attempt to relieve himself. II Alexandria
