Condition of j. ID. Smith, One of
the Allen Murderers.

j. D. Smith, one of the conspirators in
the murder of Robert Allen, and under
life sentence, is still at the County Jail.
but will probably be removed to San
Quentin some day this week.
His condition is still critical as was re-
lated in yesterdays RECORD UNION. 1t
was ascertained yesterday, however, that
is not Bright's disease that the murderer
is suffering from, but another form of
kidney disease equally as fatal in the re-
suits.
DIR. G. B. Nichols, who has been attend
ing Smith at the jail, was seen by REC
oRD-UNIoN reporter, and confirmed the
statement that Smith cannot last but
short time, if he remains here in the
County Jail. "How can you expect a
physician to treat a patient with any hope
of success in tank cell such as the
Sheriff is compelled to keep Smith in?p
he asked. Thanks to the Supervisors"

no hospital accommodations in our
County Jail like other counties have.

fore the board, and begged them
to do something in this line. I even
went to the trouble of drawing up plans
and specifications for the work. Prison
ers are falling ill constantly, and it is inn
possible to give them proper treatment in
that jail. Besides, i'll the case of insane peo-
pie, they must also be thrown in among the
criminals, instead of hospital, as should
be the case. Take the case of that un-
fortunate young man, Sigmund Mihaley,
who was brought in suffering from mel
ancholia, Tuesday, for instance He is
decent and respectable young fellow, who
never saw the inside of a prison before.
1t was shame to place him among a pack
OF thieves, murderers and other evil
doers, yet the Sheriff had to do it.''
In the case of Smith, Judges Catlin and
Van Fleet said they would not hesitate to
order him sent to some hospital, were it
not for the fact that he had been con-
victed of murder in the first degree. That
being the case, he could not be placed un-
der bonds, and the only place left is one
OF the State Prisons. San Quentin has
good hospital accommodations, so that
place was chosen

A Wonderful Clock.

The Warschaicskj Dujewnik, paper published
in Warsaw, Poland, describes a wonderful
clock which will be exhibited in Chicago. The
clock is the result of six years of earnest worl,
by matchmaker, named Goldfaden in War
saw. 1t represents q railroad station, with
waiting-r0oms for travellers, telegraph and
ticket offices, an outside promenade, and a
fountain in operation. Alongside of the sta.
tion are seen the tracks, with signal booths,
switches, and water reservoirs; in fact, every
thing belonging to European railroad depot.
In the dome of the central tower of the building
is clock showing the local time, while in
each of two other towers there is clock giving
the time, respectively, of New York and Pekin.
In both of the towers, last mentioned, a caen-
dar and barometer are seen. Every quarter of
an hour it gets lively at the station. First the
telegraph operator does his work-issues the
telegram to signify that the track is clear.
Then the doors of the building are opened the
stationkeeper and his assistant appear on the
platform at the ticket office the cashier is no.

and hits the axes with a hammer, while an
other one pumps water into the water tank of
the locomotive. After third signal with the
station bell the train starts and disappears in
tunu ell on the opposite side. The statOnkeeper
and his assistant leave the platform and the
doors of the depot building are closed, the

terest in music, and given opportunities fol
hearing good music, cannot be doubted.
Our most genuine ballad composer was Ste
phen Foster. Among his well-known songs are
"Old Dog Tray" "Massa's in the Cold
Ground" and Ellen Boyne," from which j:
taken the tune of " John Browns Body" Thi:
was the most remarkable of the songs called
forth by the civil war, and has an influence
that cannot be accounted for by the ordinary
| rules of criticism.
The campaign song was more popular in the
youth of our fathers. They went about the
country singing:
| what has caused this great connection
| Motion all the country through
| o. tits the ball a-rolling
| For Tippecanoe and Tyler too,
| And with them we'll beat little YAM
| Vans usedup man."
This was another:
And sas Wright, twas a good joke,
Declared he was not fond of Polk;
| But, Silas, we won't trouble you,
You're right without the W."
CHORUS.
"Linden's wall, foxes hole,
Coons all laugh to hear it told;
| Hal ha! hat such nominee
| As James X. Polk, of Tennessee"
| The Moody and Sankey collection of Gospel
songs went all over the land "Hod the Fort"
Sweet By-and- By" Pull for the Shore, "
and Beulah Land" long held sway over the
! peoples hearts. 1t is not easy to fairly esti-
mate the good or evil done to the growth of
musical taste by these songs
1t is to be regretted that we have no really
| National anthem. The words of the "Star
| Spanged Banner" are of American origin, but
| the tune is taken from an English book
printed in 1902.
America has done but little in the field of
opera and oratorio. George +. Bristow, of New
York, composed romantic opera, :" Rip Van
Winkle," which was produced at Niblo's Gar
den, Sept. n, 1855, running 80 consecutive
nights. He was also the composer of two
oratorios Silas G. Pratt is the composer Of a
grand OPERA "Zenobia" This is called a
beautiful and scholarly work. John K. Paine,
OF Harvard University, has giyon US our. finest
oratorio, :" st. Peter" DIR. Clarke. Of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, has recently composed
an oratoro, called Jerusalem Delivered"
In instrumental FORMS like the overture and
symphony, John X. Paine and George Chad
wick stand at the head. In lesser forms, many
names could be mentioned, our modern writers
ranking favorably with those across the water.
The musical critic has done much toward the
elevation of musical taste, beginning with
John Dwight, of Boston, and continuing
through long list Of names.
The field of musical journalism is enlarging.
Publications like the Etude of Philadelphia,
The Musical Herald, of Boston, The Keynote and
Courier, of New York, The Presto, and Music, of
Chicago, are indicative of a growing musical
nation.
There are fine institutions devoted to the
special study of music in most of our large
cities, and well equipped private teachers are
found in all parts of the country. We have
not yet acquired tho musical atmosphere of the
foreign lands where art has so long made her
home. 1t is still the desire of every student to
enjoy the advantages of European study, but
we are not musical barbarians. There is
reason why the next great composer should
not be an American.

"Pll fix the coat!" exclaimed the proprietor,
already beginning to gloat over his victory.
"You fix the fence!"

When he had secured it he stopped and asked:
"How are you going to fix my coat?"
Paint the rest of it," replied the proprietor
gleefully.

street followed by the paint-brush. Then the
stranger took the paint-pot and sprinkled paint
