GRAHAM IN JAIL.
Efie Posey's Abductor is at Last
Behind the Bars.
The Tacoma Papers Give Him Very
Black Name-Held for Ex-
animation.

Sheriff O'Neil landed his prisoner, 6.
ID. Graham, in Jail yesterday morning.
He also brought with him from Tacoma
the little Stockton girl, Efie Posey, whom
Graham stole away with him. She is
being cared for by the proprietors of the
Windsor Hotel.
1esterday Graham and his wife-who
IS said to be more of victim than other
wise OF the debased creature-were taken
before Justice Henry and ordered held for
examination on the charge of abduction.
Sheriff O'Neil states that when the peo-
pie of Tacoma learned the true character
OF the alleged doctor they were almost
incensed enough to lynch him.
1t appears from the press OF that city
that he has been guilty of the foulest
crimes, his victims being chiefly little
girls. Ellie Posey, it seems, has been
subjected to the worst indignities by the
man who stole her from her dying father.
and will have sad story 10 tell when she
appears In court as witness against hlui.
Among other victims OF Graham i'll Ia
coma Is young Swedish woman, whom
he Is alleged to have chlorolormed and
then criminally assaulted. By means OF
intimidation the girl tell so completely
under his power that, it is said, she even
gave linn her earnings as a house domes-
tic. Sheriff O'Neil says that this betrayed
and ruined girl would have killed Gra-
ham after his arrest ii she could have got
at him. She says she will come 10 Sacra-
mento, if necessary, to testify against
him.
If the half that is laid at Graham's door
be true, he is one of the vilest wretches
outside the penitentiary, and would have
few, if any, peers within its walls.

WE have not expressed heretofore any
doubt of the sincerity of the San Fran
cisco Chronicle in its opposition to the
parole bill. We have debated the ques-
ton with it soberly and with regard for
the apparent conviction of the Chronicle
that the bill was bad. Now, however:
that the bill has become a law, the Ch1oni-
Gle rails about it in manner to lead us to
doubt the sincerity of its opposition. We
incline to the belief that behind its wordy
protests there lies some motive that is not
as yet disclosed. This conclusion is
forced upon us by the amazing absurdity
of the utterances of the San Francisco
paper since the bill became a law. It
would seem that after the contest the
to advise full, fair trial of the law.
on the ground that the test of il
would develop the viciousness with
which its opponents have contended it is
charged to the brim. The sarcastic advice
ofthe Chronicle, however, lis that the people
bolt their doors, bar their windows and
arm themselves in anticipation of sud
den general outpouring of incorrigible
criminals from the prisons. The people
are not advised to stand by the Parole
Board, to urge upon it stringent regula-
tions for paroling, to be watchful and
sharply critical of it-in short, to give
the administrative officers under
the law support, encouragement and
countenance, and at the same time to
hold them to wise duty doing. The
Chronicles insincerity is suggested also
by its wild statement that ''there are l, 200
convicted felons about to be turned loose
upon the State; athousandh human wolves
to prey upon society,"" This is the raw
ing of folly, of the insanity of rage; it is
not the reasoning of a journal that is sup
posed to have full knowledge of the law
and of the facts and of the operation of
similar laws elsewhere.

SUCCESSFUL GOVERNMENT.

The enemies of the republic in France
have completely failed to shake the faith
OF the people in President Carnot. The
manly protest of one of his household in
response to innuendoes against the Presi-
dent, intended to stiffen the suspicion
that he was involved in the canal scan
dals, is said to have had the effect of elicit
ing the applause of the French people.
President Carnot shows no disposition
TO retire before his enemies; his staying
quality is something that excites admira-
tlon, and strengthens the belief that his
hands are clean. His Ministers one after
another have been discredited, but the
President remains at his post undisturbed
by the royalist assaults.
M. Carnot realizes that his retiracy,
however much he may wish to get clear
OF all the turmoil of the present, would
place the republic in great peril; he has
the courage to prevent such disaster and
TO confront unmoved the unscrupulous
enemies of free government. The polit-
1caI morals of the chosen sons of France
have been shown to be very black indeed,
but the exposure has tested the strength
ofrepublican institutions, and the French
have at last come to fully understand that
a revolution is not the necessary result of
every startling disclosure of official dis
honesty.
When the history of France in this
period comes to be written it will go
upon record that no government has ever
sustained itself so well against such odds
of defamation, national scandal, assault
by monarchists, anarchists, political
cabals and reactionary intrigues; that no
government has ever weathered such a
storm that has had the administra-
tion Of the affairs of people so excitable,
so quick to take arms, and which is made
up of so many discordant political ele-
ments. In short the republican govern
Inent in France has proved its right to
live and its capacity to maintain that
right.

THAT has happened to our good neigh
bors at Stockton which the RECORD
UNION warned them to prepare for.
Sensational journalism has spread the
story far and wide that Stockton was
greatly injured by disastrous flood, and
now the Stockton papers are busy nail
ing the exaggeration to the cross of truth.
AS matter OF fact Stockton had no more
happen to her than almost any COM
munity is liable to, and as to damage-it
is triling compared to the effects of an
ordinary storm at the East. Sacramento
has been run through the mill of mis-
representation SO often, that we know
precisely how the Stockton people feel
about the matter.

Mrs. Coady Takes Shot at Harry
Mcdonald.
There was great excitement late yester-
day afternoon in Coady's saloon on
Fourth street, between and X.
Harry Mcdonald, somewhat intoxi-
Gated, entered the saloon and wanted to
shake dice with Mrs. Coady, who was
officiating as mixologist. She declined to
do so and ordered Mcdonald to leave the
barroom. He became very abusive, de-
claring Mrs. Coady to be all that is un-
holy, and furthermore picked up a beer
glass which was on the counter and was
holding it in threatening manner, when
the woman grabbed her self-cocking
pistol close by. Before she had taken
aim the trigger was pulled, the room was
filled with smoke and Mcdonald was
seen running towards the Postotfice. The
bullet went wide of its mark, striking
the molding above the door.
Officers Lowell and Doyle were near
by and arrested Mcdonald and Mrs.
Coady. The woman gave bail. but Nc
Donald was put in the calaboose.
Mrs. Coady says she did not intend to
kill her villitier, but wanted to scare him
so he would not further molest her.

His Carriage Driven by N.phthn.

@. L. Simonds of Lynn has made a
steam carriage for his own use that will
make 10 miles an hour. The carriage
weighs only 400 pounds md can carry
two persons at a time. It has tho ap-
pearance of an ordinary carriage in
front, except there are no provisions
made for horse. The wheels are OF cy-
Gle make and are four in number. The
hind wheels are 43 inches, and the front
wheels are 38sinches, with rubber tires.
The boiler and engine are just in the
rear of the seat and give the carriage the
appearance of fire engine. The steam
generates in what is called porcupine
boiler, which weighs 100 pounds. The
steam is made by naphtha flames from
three jets. The naphtha is kept in CYL
inder, enough to last for seven hours.
and there is water tank that will hold
10 gallons. The steering part consists
of a crank wheel on the footboard, so
that the engineer can steer and attend to
the engine at the same time.-Boston

Remarkable Cures by Faith.

At the Christian alliance camp meet
ing nearly 200 persons personally testi-
fed to having been cured by faith,
and twice as many more stood up
at the close Of the meeting when their
leader, DR.. Simpson, asked all in the
audience who had been healed by divine
power TO arise. Mrs. Welcome of Var
mouth was one of those who claimed to
have been cured of lung disease without
the aid of a physician. Mrs. w. M.
Davis Of Bonny Eagle had been relieved
of spinal trouble of long standing; Mrs.
M. j. Ames of Portland neuralgia of the
heart and pleurisy; Miss ]. o. Thomp-
son Of Portland has been cured Of
tumor, and Miss Jennie NJ. Berwick of
the same city had seven teeth extracted
without suffering any pain. Mrs. L. G.
Clark of Tyngsboro, Mass, who suffered
paralysis Of the optic nerve, which nearly
robbed her Of her eyesight, was led to
the camp ground, became anointed and
her sight was restored. Mrs. G. F. Uran
Of Lowell, Mass, was cured Of an inter-
nal cancer.
H. X. Smith of New Britain, Conn.,,
said that he had been cured Of cancer
without the aid of a physician. Mrs. M.
j. Clark of New York gave testimony
that few years ago she fell in church
door and broke her wrist. Neither medi-
cine nor bandage was applied, but the
Lord united the broken bones. Another
New York lady said she was thrown
from carriage not long ago, and her
right ankle was dislocated. The Lord
set the dislocated bone. The Rev. A. 8.
Orne Of Haverhill, Mass, said that for
seven years he had employed no physi-
clan in his family. In that time one
child had been cured of the Group and
another Of pneumonia without the use of
medicine. An infant had died, but Mr..
Orne declared that its death was due to
a broken heart.-Old Orchard Cor. New

Marrying In Hard Times.

Question-Woud The Sun advise an engaged
couple TO get married in these hard times.
Answer--If there be no other bar to
the marriage than the hardness of the
times, it ought not to be forbidden. OF
course the bachelor who desires to be-
come husband should be able to earn a
living or should otherwise have the
means Of life at his command, so that he
shall be able to provide for the woman
who is willing to become his wife, and
that thus the twain may enjoy welded
bliss without undue anxiety about the
morrow. We notice by the municipal
record of marriages that just about as
many people get married here in hard
times as in better times; when work is
slack and money tight as when both are
plentiful. We could not give advice in
an individual case like that which is pre-
sented to us, because we know nothing
about the parties, but we know that the
love which laughs at locksmiths can Of
ten act very boldly without ever having
cause to regret the action. We are not
prepared to say that the engaged couple
should shrink from serious duty or
postpone the day Of wedlock merely be-
cause the times are not 80 good as they
have been or as theywi be after awhile.

Escaped Lion Caught by an Elephant.

An exciting and remarkable scene oc-
CURED yesterday at Barnsley, where
Days menagerie is being exhibited.

Bartlett, the keeper, accidentally left the
door of a cage containing young lions un-
fastened. Bartlett was afterward sur
prised to see one of the lions loose. Hap
PLY no spectators were in the show at
the time The keeper Immediately armed
himself and sent for aid. Blank car
tridges were fired to keep the lion at bay.
Luckily, it came within reach of q power
full elephant named Jumbo ii, who was
fenced off by means of ropes and stakes
in one corner of the show. The elephant
seized the lion with his trunk round the
body, al placing his foot upon him
held him down. The keepers, who had
secured ropes, noosed them, and putting
them on the lions legs secured and
dragged him into the cage.-Westmin-

Just begun to taste the sweets of appre-
citation, married Miss Eleanor Hardy,

Boston. About the same time, Mr..
Charles Platt, the etcher and painter,
and Mr.. Bunker's chosen friend, mar
ried Miss Harper. Mr.. Bunker's death
occurred cruelty soon after his marriage.
Not long after Mrs. Platt died. Their
mutual griefs drew Mr.. Platt and Mrs.
Bunker into sympathy. This lost no
force through lapse of time, and the
other day they were married. Mrs.
Platt is a lovely woman of "a. Mr.. Platt
is the author and artist of the two num-
bers "Old Italian Gardens" in the July
and August numbers of Harper's Maga-
zine. The two have joined the artistic
