What Will He DO With Ito

Such is the title of one Of Bulwer's
most fascinating and powerful Lovels,
and readers will recollect how satisfac-
torily the problem was solved. Some
thing more than a novelist's query con-
fronts every one Of US as to what we will
do with the year 1895, now almost here,
1t may be called a book of blank pages,
on every one of which we must set down,
whether we will OF not, our successes.
failures, or even tho record of nothing
done. Some planning ought to be done
as to what We Will do in the days that
are before us, and how we shall accom-
pliHh our purposes, whether they he en-
tering upon IA profession, engaging in a
new or prosecuting i'm old business,
building n house, running for office or
taking u wedding journey. In the ourse
of what we may do in pursuit of any of
these, it is probable that we shall find
it necessary to travel moro OF less. If 80,
it will be profitable to have some pre-
vious acquaintance with the railroad
systems Of the country. A brief study
of the maps, especially that of the great
Central West, will certainly convince
tho traveller that he can reach most

roctly and most comfortably by patroniz-

Progress Temporarily Checked
by the Suit Brought by the
Government.
TERMED NEEDLESS LITIGATION.
He Has No Doubt of Ultimate Victory
for the University and Its
Patroness.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Dec.
"a very unique reception and union
was given at Encina last evening. The
lobby of the big dormitory was decorated
for the occasion, and fully 800 ladies and
gentlemen of the university and faculty
members and their wives were present.
Several toasts were responded to, among
them being one by DR.. Jordan on "The
Future of the University"
DR.. Jordan, in regard to the Government
suit against the Stanford estate, said that
it had always been a question to him why
so sudden an action had been brought and
that it had been instituted on more and
different facts than were stated in the bill
of complaint. Of the ultimate outcome of
the litigation, DR.. Jordan said he had never
been in doubt; but very few of those pres
ent would ever know the worry, care and
self-sacrifice which the suit had demanded
of Mrs. Stanford. The past trials of the
university had, so the president said,
brought about more loyal feeling and a
closer bond of sympathy among students
and faculty than could have been accom-
plished by any other means.
''The settlement of the suit means SIM
ply the removal of burden from the uni
versity which is preventing its expansion"
SAID the orator; ''but its growth and en-
largement will depend entirely upon Mrs.
Stanford, who will make the additions as
she sees proper. There will be many other
legacies, amounting to nearly $4, 100000,
which will have to be paid. Though most
of these legacies return to the university,
they cannot be paid in a day and will re-
suit in further delay"
Among the departments and additions
that must be made as soon as possible, the
president mentioned an elaborate chemi-
cal laboratory, increase in the faculty
corps and departments of work and an aug
mented library. DR.. Jordan said that the
latter would be amply provided for by the
81, 100000 legacy from Australia, which
was conditional upon successful issue of
the suit now in progress.
Notwithstanding the fact that we have
many more millions in prospect than are
possessed by any other university in the
world, the success of the institution will
be as largely dependent in the future upon
the spirit and loyalty of the students as it
has been in the past" continued DR.. Jor-
dan. "The keynote of our advancement
will not be so much the enlargement of
the university and increase of number as
improvement of the student standard"
Tomorrow the executive committee will
meet to audit the treasurer's accounts and
to discuss the question of a southern trip
now being arranged by the Glee and Man
dolin climbs

The Abductor of Greek Consul
Pavlides' Daughter Found
Guilty.
CLIFTON MAYNE'S REQUEST.
A Report that He Has Given to His
ErStwhile Ward All of His
Property.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Dec. 3.-The
Grand Jury filed into Department of the
Superior Court this morning, TO be investi-
gated and the legal status OF its mem bers
duly inquired into. The matter was
brought into court on motion to set aside
certain indictments and the first taken up
was that against George Brady.
After being sworn, II. E. Storrs, the fore
man of the Grand Jury, was examined by
Attorney LIE Compile Davis. Mr.. Storrs
pleaded guilty to being a notary public,
but held no other civil or military posi-
TONS He described the mode by which
the Grand Jury indicted Brady and then
was allowed to retire.
Albert H. Johnson of Monrovia was the
next Juror examined. He stated that he
was subpenaed III the ordinary way and
was, so far as he knew, on the assessment
roll of 1S94-95. He did not claim absolute
knowledge on tina. point, however.
Asthe investigation proceeded, little in
terest was developed. j. J. Martin of
Compton denied being road overseer, he
having held this position temporarily as a
substitute. Walter S. Andrews of Sierra
Madre, w. S. Arnold of Pasadena, Henry
Brown and John B. Brown were examined
in turn without their qualification to sit
as grand jurors being impugned. All the
Superior Court Judges and Sheriff Burr
have been subpenaed to appear and testify
in the examination of the Grand Jury.
This is novel procedure in this county.

A VICTORIA MANS MANIA.
Amos de Cosmos Pursued by
Countless Assassins and
Wraiths.
A 0nce.Noted Statesman Whose Ec
centricitieS Were Familiar to
British Columbians.

VICTORIA, B. c., Dec. 3.-Many years
ago William Alexander Smith, having be-
come weary of that patronymic, prevailed
upon the Legislature of California to give
him the new name OF Amos de Cosmos, an
appellation as singular as the man himself
and in Specification the very reverse OF his
character. for he was OF a thoroughly I'M
lovable disposition, fierce in his manner
and speech, and eccentric to a degree.
For many months he has been at deaths
door, but while his bodily strength has
been restored his mind is so far diseased
that the Supreme Court to-day appointed
guardians to his estate on an application
that he be declared insane. He has by
shrewd speculation acquired great wealth.
Mr.. de Cosmos labors under the delu-
sion that 1t Is dangerous for him to walk
the streets OF Victoria, for not alone does
he encounter would-be assassins on all
hands, but certain shades" pursue him,
preventing him from seeing his enemies.
To prevent attack from the outside he per-
sists in boiling the doors and windows OF
his house, and when he retires to his room
he locks the door and rolls the bed against
it. Lights are constantly kept burning;
revolvers, swords, guns and variety OF
weapons are kept in readiness for imme-
date use.
Not long ago a friend called at De Cos
mos house and found it securely bolted.
He rang at the door and having waited for
some minutes, Mr.. de Cosmos made his
appearance, sword in hand, denounced his
friend as thief and ordered him away.
There can be no doubt as to the insanity
of the man.
Amos de Cosmos came to this country
during the gold excitement of 1858, and
has since been a resident of Victoria. He
is a much-traveled and weIl-read man, and
sat in the last Legislative Assembly of
British Colum bia.
On one occasion, it is claimed, while
speaking against measure at the close of
the session, he held the floor for ninety
hours. His opponents were wont 10 adj
dress him sarcastically as bill Smith,
but "Bill' was venomous and invariably
managed to hit back with whitening force.
He also represented British Colum bia in
the Dominion Parliament during the
regime of Sir John Macdonald and that
statesman used to say of him:
THAT Smith, with his admixture of
Greek and Latin, is smart fellow, but the
devil himself could not work with him"
De Cosmos established the Victoria
Colonist in 1856.

TROTTING ASSOCIATION MEETS.
Board of ReUfeac Has More Than Ttco
Hundred Cases to Hear.

Hundred Cases to Hear.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. 3.-The semi-an-
nual meeting of the board of review of the
American Trottlng Association opened
this morning at the Auditorium and will
be in session all of this week. There are
30 cases on the docket for hearing. Prob
ably the leading case before the board is
that of the charges of the Lincoln Associa-
ton against John R. Gentry, ]. F. Taylor
and Joe Patchen for violating an exhibit
ton contract. A large number of charges
preferred against Davies come from the
meeting he gave at the Des Moines track
last summer.
No decisions were handed down tonight.
Secretary Steiner said a batch of them
would probably be handed down tomorrow
evening. The case in which John r. Gen
try and Joe Patchen are involved occupied
most of the time of the delegates. Palmer
l.. Clark, secretary of the Lincoln (Nebr. J
association, wants Patchen and Gentry
ruled off the trotting turf because of their
failure to show up at match race arranged
between them by the association. There
was no written contract but kilograms and
letters were produced in evidence.
An effort was made to induce Mr.. Clark to
withdraw his charges, with the under
standing that the American Association
would make stringent rule covering such
breaches of contract In the future. This
Mr.. Clark is willing to do, but the associa-
ton surprised every body concerned by re
fusine to drop the charges. 1t is the inten-
ton to hear the case to the end, and the
chances are considered good that If the two
great horses are not ruled off the turf at
least their owners will be severely repri-
manded.

TRIP OF A VALLEY ROAD CAR.
Laden With San Joaquin County
Beans 1t Starts for Kansas
City.

STOCKTON, CAL, Dec. "a San
joaquin Valley Railroad car was loaded at
the Miller warehouse to-day with beans
and will 90 East as far as Kansas City. 1t
will go by the southern route. Freight
traffic was opened to-day, when Goodell,
Forrest & Hewett forwarded by the con-
struction train car of provisions to Grant
Brothers, at the Stanislaus River.
The first train was run over the Corral
Hollow road to-day amid the blowing Of
whistles and the delighted shouts of hun
dreds of people. This afternoon the first
run was made to point about two miles
beyond French Camp. the track having
been completed that distance. H. L. Bar
Der had invited the city officials and many
prominent citizens to take ride, and the
general public was also Included in the in
yitation.
The start was made at about 80 o'clock
from the Office of the company at the in
tersection of Hunter street and Mormon
Channel. There were several fiat cars
loaded with ties and rails and the others
empty and on these about 800 people
scrambled. A run was first made on the
track west, skirting Mormon Channel, and
considerable difficulty was experienced in
rounding the curves on the channel be-
yond the Stockton warehouse.
When the train started the whistles at
the electric light works We're sounded and
?. A. Buell. & Co.'s planning mill took up
the refrain, while other whistles about the
city Joined in. The Corral Hollow whistle
responded and then several toots were
given by one of the Valley road engines
on Taylor street. The run over the road
was in the nature OF triumph.
People focked to the street intersec-
tons or else viewed the passing train from
their porches. Handkerchiefs were waved
and cheers given as the train proceeded
south through the city on Hunter street.
The run was made smoothly and without
any hitch, for the roadbed and construc-
ton work has been done excellently.
Track is now laid about six miles from
Stockton and it is calculated that it will be
completed to the San Joaquin River in a
little over week, the distance being eight
miles. About 80 men are now employed
in construction work, there being two
gangs. The lower one being now engaged
at the San Joaquin River. Arrangements
are nearly completed for laying a tempo
rary track across the San Joaquin, so the
construction train can follow in the wake
of the tracklayers. The road to the mines
at Corral Hollow will be completed in
about two months.
The engine which yesterday made the
maiden run over the line was in charge of
George H. Downs, an engineer at one time
in the employ of the Hudson Central road,
and lately employed on the Northwestern.
Among those who made the trip to-day
were: Councilman Lang, Councilman

FROM CHINO,
Justice Of the Peace Seeley Left
Many Creditors in the
Lurch.
Deserted an Estimable Wife and Fam.
lily Without Providing for
Their Support.

SAN BERN ARDINO, CAL, Dec. 3.-Or-
rim f. Seeley, erstwhile Justice of the
Peace of Chino, has decamped and various
people and institutions mourn his absence
to the extent of $1,000. In addition to be-
ing Justice of the Peace Seeley was secre-
tary of branch of the Savings Union at
Chino, an insurance agent, maintained a
real estate and house renting agency was
a member of half dozen orders, and in one
way or another managed to hold an inter
est in nearly every enterprise in the sugar
factory town. Each of these interests has
suffered from his connection with them.
Seeley left Chino on November 81, came
to San Bernardino, doubled back to Los
Angeles and then left for the City of Mex
leo, where he is now located. His pecula-
tons will not fall below $1,000. OF this the
Savings Union loses about $3.50. People
who had intrusted property to him to rent
for them are out several months rent. He
borrowed money indiscriminately and
used his credit for all it was worth in every
direction.
Seeley left wife and four small children
almost destitute, and the little home they
occupy is mortgaged for 5000. Mrs. See
ley is very highly respected and this feat
ure of the case m axes it blacker for the
rascally husband. The matter has been
kept quiet and some of his indignant
neighbors started a movement looking to
his extradition, but found that the law
was against it and Seeley is safe as long as
he is across the border.
AS Justice of the Peace Seeley's deci-
sions were parodies on justice, and because
OF them he was cordially disliked by peo-
pie who had anything to do with his court
QaI har n rf,lrn
explanation of his actions is that his hab-
its caused him to squander everything and
then take TO cowardly flight and desert his
family.
