THRILLING WITH CRr1E.

Al Los Angeles man awaits trial on no
fewer than forty-fye charges of burglary.
he has. already had five years of servitude,
II so it can be called, at San Quentin. The
career of this criminal should be stopped
irrevocably. What farce it seems to allow
bail to depredatOr of this eminence! He
openly laughs in the face Of the court and
says he will get $4,000 bail, and will rob a
few more houses besides. So he may, pos
sibly, il a feeble court gives him a chance.
1t is nonsense to expect that this man can
be reformed by anything but sentence to
remain in Jail until he dies. 1t is the best
course for himself and the most polite and
merclful for society.

The number Of deaths by so-called gas
asphyxiation in San Francisco is now be-
coming an alarming quantity In the city's
mortality. There is no intention on the
part of the gas companies to reduce the
number of their customers, but the defects
OF water gas unfortunately slip away from
their good intentions and deceive the un-
wary. 1t is a curious fact that while water
gas has come into general use in numbers
very little application in England. where
the method Of making the illuminant was
discovered II would be TOO much to say
that Samson Fox OF Leeds, in Yof kshire, IS
the discoyerer. but he is the patentee as he
Is OF various other things that he knows no
more about than Adam. Wherever water
gas is allowed as an illuminaut Ia England
perhaps Harrowgate is the only place

SHIP WINE BY SEA.

The wine merchants of San Francisco are
taking wise step in combining to employ
couple OF clipper ships 10 accommodate
their trade. They are in an unfortunate
position I'D sending their wine to the East
or to New Orleans. The Southern Pacific
is the only railroad available unless ship
ments are made via Oregon or Washington,
where there are fortunately five transconti-
mental railroads competing for traffic. There
is also the alternative of shipping wine t6
the southern part of the State and making
use Of The compe etition which the Atchison
and Santa Fe route affords. But the cost
OF transportation is necessarily increased
os sfS.n-keIrDg cargo from snip 10 ran, ana
when the problem is studied carefully it
will be seen that the best course for the
merchants is at present 60 send their wine
round the Horn either to New York, New
Orleans or Europe.
This enterprise should have been entered
upon long ago and adhered to. The wine
production of California would have been
advanced considerably by sea voyage trans
p0rtation and low freights. Wine is inl-
proved by long voyage of varying temper
ature, and the difference in time is Of little
account, especially when maturing improves
the price The merchants are well aware
OF the extent OF their present trade, aud
they certainly should be able to keep
couple of clippers actively employed, at
leas: from this side of the continent. Nor
should there be much in the way as to
return cargoes. The experiment which the
Traffic Association has put in force indi-
Gates the road to success. Let the mer-
chants get the right kind of ships and let
them stand by one another and they need
have little anxiety about the results. One
development they should look forward to
hopefully: England will give as fair terms
to California wine as she gives to the vint-
ages Of Europe and her own colonies. With
effective organization in England our viii
culturists may greatly enlarge their mar
ket. This not only applies to our numerous
wines, but to grape brandies,

Married Out of His Rank.

Prince Ernst of SAKE Meiningen, who
married Miss Jansen, the daughter of the
German historian, is now SO years old. He

popular in the cultivated circles of society
in the Bavarian capital. 1t was in Munich
that he met his wife, beautiful and clever
