SMUGGLED OPIUM.
Druggist Clerk Solinsky Dismissed at
San Quentin.


San Quentin.
SAN Francisco, CAL.-Druggist Clerk
Solinsky has been discharged from his
position at San Quentin by Warden Hale.
The charge against him was smuggling
opium to the prisoners who could pay
for the forbidden luxury. Solinsky on
account of his position had facilities for
carving on his underground dispensary
and making lots of money out OF 1t. just
how long he has been carrying on the
illicit trade no one knows. Suspicion
was first aroused against him by the
large number of packages he received at
the prison through Wells, Fargo x Co.
1t did not take long to ascertain that
Solinskv was extremely anxious to keep
the contents of these packages a secret
from everybody. \ watch was set in
Wells, Fargo & Co. S office in this city,
and the discovery was made that the
packages were sent from Chinatown
The next step was the certain proof that
the packages contained opium. Solinsky
through his position had the run of the
cells to find out if the convicts were sick
He was caught prescribing opium at q
good round sum, and his dismissal fol-
lowed.

Terrell Tex. Sept. 2i.--Yesterday and
today considerable favorable comment
on Governor Hogg's letter to the En-
glish woman In regard to negro lynch
ing was made, Some Of his strong
friends declare him the grandest man
In Texas. while another went further
and said he was the grandest man In
the United States. asserting that only
mason and Dixon's line kept him from
the presidency. Many affirm that Gov
ernor Hogg's conservative course in
this matter will go far toward Grip
pling prejudices against the south.
Farmers are down In the mouth over
the downfall Of cotton prices and some
declare they are done with It: and they
probably will be until planting time in
1895. There is some talk of holding
seed for better prices, Willie some say
they will feed the seed.
New merchants are coming into Ter
reil and Il few new stores will open for
business within few weeks.
There is talk Of enlarging the pres
ent foundry and putting machine shops
of sufficient capacity TO meet all re-
qulrements. Terrell will probably be
asked to assist in this good work.
