Mr.. Jos b. BOYLE Dear Sir-For many

Tolstoi. Then and Now.

A few days ago Count Tolstoi attracted
q good deal of public attention by max
ing his appearance in the Moscow Grim
inal Court. Fortunately his presence
there was not occasioned by any conflict
between the Tolstoian ethic and Russian
law. He was mere observer. The fact
that he appeared in ordinary European
costume, and not In the muZhik's dress
which he wears at Yasnaya Poliana, was
the subject of much curious comment.
The cases dealt with in court during Tol-
stoi's visit were chiefly petty thieIts. In
the legal proceedings and formalities at
tending the execution of justice TolstOi
showed the greatest interest. He was
provided with notebook, of which
he made frequent use. Even the Rus
sian mystic. apparently, must-like NJ.
Zola-bave his human documents.
Prince Obolenski, who was an intimate
friend of Count Tolstoi in his early life.
publishes in the pages OF a Russian
review some interesting "reminiscences
of the days now dead, when the Count
was anything but an ascetic. The
Prince recalls a time when Iolstoi' $
mind was of the world worldly, and
when he used to be very fond of balls.
Look" said he to the Prince one
evening III society. indicating a
lady in their vicinity. what poetry
what elegance, wealth OF idea, and
charm, merely in these flowers with
which her dress is adornedr' Since those
unTegenerate days Toistoi has certainly
travelled far.-W estninster Gazette.

ject.
The Grand Jury earnestly recommend
that the Board of Supervisors take lmme-
diate steps to repair the road near Nc
Connel's Station, known as the Hicks
vile road, on the Costumes River Dot
tom, so as to afford safe passage at all
seasons to the residents of the southern
portion of the county, the abOve-men-
toned road being the principal thorough
fare to Sacramento City and Stockton.
Several lives having already been sacrl-
feed on account Of insecurity OF said
road, requires tn at said road be put IN
safe condition this season.
GRAND JURY ROOM.
The Grand ury having held long
session in poorly ventilated room-one
that is insecure from the approach of
eayesdroppers-dO earnestly advise the
Board OF Supervisors to remodel said
room by putting in new windows, tax
ing off the present skylight, which acts

During our Investigations we have
found fifteen true bills of Indictment, as
follows: Three for arson. three for burg
larry, one for perjury, one for bIgamy, one
for manslaughter, five for violating the
purity OF elections laws one presentnent
for battery, and thirtytwO accusations.
The Grand Jury has been IN regular
session fifty-five days. and has made
seventeen necessary adjournments, and
during the adjournments committees
have been in session seven days.
INDICTMENT AND ACCUSATIONS.
The Grand Jury returns one indictment
against b. w. Cavanaugh for the alleged
violation of the purity of elections law.
light accusations are made against
Supervisors Morrison. Curtis, Todd and
Jenkins, on account of the alleged wrong
ful appropriations of money above speci-
fed.
An accusation is written charge by q
Grand Jury against an officer for will1ul
OF corrupt misconduct in office. 1t must
state the Offense simply, be delivered 10y
the foreman 20 the District Attorney,
who must serve a copy on the defendant
within ten days, with a notice 10 appear
III court and answer. The defendant may
answer or demur to the accusation. If
the answer is denial, the court proceeds
to trial Of the charge before jury, and
the trial shall be as upon Indictment. II
the defendant is found guilty, the court
must enter a judgment OF removal from
office. From this an appeal may be
taken. If an accusation Verlhed by oath
of any person is presented TO the Superior
Court against an officer, the court must
cite the officer to appear and answer
within ten days. and thereafter proceed to
hear the matter in q summary manner,
and if the accusation Is sustained a Judg-
ment of deprivation Of office must be en-
tered, and a fine Of 5000 levied in favor of
the informer.

are scattered about. among them many
rare old cabinets and writing desks. An
ancient knife-case. made of mahogany,
is wonderful illustration of the delicacy
of this art few centuries ago.
One of the few things Mr.. Halleran
carefully guards is pipe made from the

Weeks of careful inspection and col
umns devoted to description would not
suffice to disclose all the wonders of this
gigantic collection. Mr.. Halleran was
born in Flushing in 1914, and since 1864
has been actively engaged in gathering
together his collection. He says he
drifted into the work through tondness

The Russian EX-ConvIct Now In the

Sheriff Johnson and Deputy Schwilke
returned from San Francisco last night
with Ivan Kobalev. the Russian convict,
who is charged with being one of the
murderers of Mr.. and Mrs. +. II. l..
Weber.
The prisoner is an ugly-looking crea-
ture, with features such as are usually
seen among the lowest class of Russian
criminals. He is a treacherous fellow,
but Sheriff Johnson had taken every pre-
caution to prevent a surprise, hence he
had no difficulty in landing his prisoner
safely in the County Jail
Sheriff Johnson states that the coat and
vest which Matthew Stcher bakov, who
was stabbed TO death at San Jose, Was
buried i'll were compared with the
trousers worn by Kobalev when he was
arrested, and identified by young Weber
as belonging to his father. and were
found to belong 10 the same suit of
clothes, showing almost cOnclusively that
Stcherbakov was connected with the
murder Of Mr.. and Mrs. Weber.
