GRAND ISLAND ROADS.
The Supervisors Will Assist in Hav-
ing Them Repaired.

The committee of the Grand Island
land owners, appointed at meeting
held at Ryde last week to interview
the Supervisors relative to the i'm
provement of the levee road around the
island, again appeared before the
board yesterday morning.
A. w. Stuart spoke Of the bad con-
dition of the levee road and urged the
board to have it placed in good condi-
ton. Remarks on the subject were also
made by I. G. Hall.
The situation on Grand Island is re-
culiar. The original public road ex-
tended around the edge Of the island
on the natural soil. Now this ground
is occupied by the levee, and the road
is on top of the embankment. The SUI
pervisors have no control over the !evee,
yet the road now being on the top OF
the levee, the people want the county
to keep it in repair, or to aid in doing
So
The Supervisors have been DESTROYS
of doing the/right thing by the people
on the island but have not been able
to see their way clear to expanding
money to improve the round-the- island
road since it means work on the levee.
On the assurance Of the committee
that the levees are now practically
completed, and that any improvement
to the roadway will not be materially
interfered with in the future, Super
visor Jenkins moved that the citizens
committee-A. w. Stuart, I. q. Hall
and ]. L. Aldrich-be authorized to
take charge of the levee road, under
the supervision Of the Commissioner of
that road district, and make temporary
improvements thereon. They to make
a monthly report to the board, show
ing what had been done and the ex-
pense entailed.
The motion was carried, and the COM
mittee expressed their satisfaction and
withdrew.
Philip Wise was authorized, on Mr..
Jenkins motion. to have a coating CT
straw placed on about four and half
miles of road south Of Isleton at an
expense of not to exceed $50 per mile.
Horticultural Commissioner ]. N. Ste
phenson submitted his report for the
month of April, showing what orchards
had been inspected and what owners
required to spray their trees.
The rest Of the days session was
spent in examining and passing on
demands against the county.

TORE UP BLANKETS.
Ed. Finn and Frank Brown Convicted
of Malicious Mischief.

Ed. Finn and Frank Brown, two boys
who have been held in City Jail
as witnesses in the trial of Joe
Davis and James Donnelly for rob-
berry, tore up their blankets and
were charged with malicious mischief
They pleaded not guilty, and Brown
demanded a jury trial, and his case was
set for the 14th inst, but he changed
his mind, and they were tried.
Officers testified that Finn and Brown
were confined in adjacent cells, and that
Finn tore his blanket into strips and
tied his shoes to them, and slung them
across to his companions cell to get
matches, and they passed things back
and forth.
Finn said that he only tore off one
strip, as he wanted to get something
to eat from Brown.
Brown took the stand, but his tes-
timony did not improve his case any,
and they were both found guilty, and
will be sentenced to-day.
James Mcclure and George Robinson
pleaded guilty Of vagrancy and were
sentenced to six months in Jail, with
sentence withheld for one hour, to en-
able them to leave town.

considerable loss. All this I know only
by hearsay. With this, however, neither
the State Mineralogist nor the State
Mining Bureau had anything whatever
to do one way or another. Mr.. Dunn
finished the work he was employed to
do in a few months and was discharged
and has not been in the service OF the
bureau since. Whether he took up his
ground while at work for the bureau, or
before, or after, do not know. At all
events, however, the State Mining Bu-
reau in no way whatever lent its aid to
any mining schemes of Mr.. Dunn or
anybody else. The publication of his
article was justified by its contents, and
while he showed the courage of his con-
victions by attempting to work some of
the ground, he disproved his own
theories in a practical manner by fall
ing to make the so-called "auriferous
conglomerates" pay.
With the success or failure of any of
Mr.. Dunn's mining plans 1 had no in
terest, nor had any knowledge at the
| time that he had taken up, or intended
to work any Of the ground in question.
In my reports to the trustees used the
following language: Russell L. Dunn
has made very careful study of the
extensive fields of auriferous gravels in
Siskiyou County, which are yet but
partly developed. Mr.. Dunn finds an
| auriferous deposit there which he con-
siders unique, and which is compre-
hensively an auriferous gravel bed
compacted into a conglomerate. The
chapter will be read with interest by
the gravel miners Of the State, and
should Mr.. Dunn's conclusions be found
through practical operations to be cor
rect new source of gold product will
be added to the many varieties already
found in California" 1t will be seen
| that neither officially Endorsed nor con-
demned Mr.. Dunn's theory, but gave it
over his name for what it was worth.
In the article itself by Mr.. Dunn, a
marked copy of which inclose, the ex-
pressions "in the opinion of the writer"
| conclusions of the writer, ETC., are
| repeatedly used. At the end of Mr..
| Dunn's paper is the following para
| graph: I'm conclusion, the writer de-
sires to express his obligations to Pro-
fessors Joseph LeConte, Christy and
Lawson of the University of California,
| Professor Brander of the Leland STAN
| Waldemar Lindgren, Ross E. Browne
| and j. S. Diller for assistance and
friendly criticism given him during the
preparation of this paper" While this
is by no means an Endorsement of Mr..
Dunn's theories or views of the subject
| by these gentlemen, it at least shows
| that the paper was submitted to them
| for comment and criticism in advance
| of it's publication, and that the whole
matter had been generally discussed
| / desire in this manner to disclaim in
every way participation Of the State
| Mining Bureau, or any one connected
with it, in any mining plans Of Mr. Dunn
and to emphatically deny having given
them any official support by publishing
his article on "Auriferous Conglomer-
| ate" in California with any such object
in view. Respectfully yours,

Is a pleasant object to contemplate, par
ticularly if one happens to be it's pro-
prietor. But the hue of that justly es-

as discomfort in the vicinity of the liver,

Concerning the cruelty to a horse, re-

Bernard McGinty called yesterday to
make an explanation.
He says he did not sell the horse to

with whom Lewis made the dicker.
Lewis, he says, used the horse for sew
eral days, and then had the animal
taken to his (McGinty's) place and tied
In his barn, where he found it. He took
the horse to Lewis house, tied him in
front Of the place, and then, as he says,
told Mrs. Lewis the horse was not his
and he had returned it to it's owner.
Mrs. Lewis, says McGinty, promised
to have the horse cared for, and he left
him there. If anyone was guilty OF
neglecting the animal, McGinty says
Il was not he.

MAN VERSUS WOMAN.

Physically, men have the indisputable
superiority in strength, and women in
beauty intellectually, certain infer.
iority of the female sex can hardly be
denied, when we remember how almost
exclusively the foremost places in every
department of science, literature and art
have been occupied by men. how infini-
tesimally small is the number of women
who have shown in any form the highest
order of genius, how many of the great
est men have achieved their greatness in
defiance of the most adverse circumstan-
ces, and how completely women have
failed in obtaining the first position, even
IN music or painting, for the cultivation
OF which their circumstances would an
pear most propitious. 1t is as impossible
TO find n female Raphael or female
Handel as IA female Shakespeare or New
ton. Morally, the general superiority of
women over men is, | think, unquestion-
able. II we take the somewhat coarse
and inadequate criterion of police statis-
tics. we find that while the male and fe-
male populations are nearly the same in
number the crimes committed by men
are usually rather more than five times
as numerous as those committed by wo-
men. Sef-sacriiice is the most con-
splcuous element of a virtuous and reli-
gious character, and it is certainly far
less common among men than among
women, whose whole lives are usually
spent in yielding to the will and consult
ing the pleasures of another. There are
two great departments of virtue-the i'm
pulslve, or that which springs spontan-
eously from the emotions, and the de-
Lucrative, or that which is performed in
obedience to the sense of duty, and in
both of these I..imagine women are SUI
perior to men. Their sensibilty is great
err; they are. more chaste, both in thought
and act; more tender to the erring, more
compassionate to the suffering, more
atfectionate to all about then.-William
Edward Hartpolc Leclly.

the emperor of China Owney received a
passport bearing the royal crest and
dragon, permitting him to travel in the
country. But Owney did not 20 beyond
the city,and Captain Panton, of the Vic
toria, finally took the dog. traveller back
to kobi, Japan, from which port he final
ly sailed to New York, as the guest of
Captain Grant, of the steamer Port
Phillip
Owney knew all on board, and, as on
the Victoria, was a member of both star
board and port watches, and dined in the
cabin and before the mast with equal
satisfaction
AT Singapore Owney ent ashore with
an officer, to the wonderment of the ma
tives, who, noting his decorations, con-
Guided he was parsonage of high rank.
On November 80 Owney sailed from
Port Said and on the trip he attracted no
little attention from passing vessels and
from postal authorities. Some of the
clerks gave Owney medals Finally AL
giers was reached and the shipping port
visited, where Turks, Nubians and others
looked upon Owney with amaZement.
They handled his decorations, and some.
though perhaps they did not understand
just why, fastened to his collar medals
which were thus sent to the American
PSoPie. VII l'cctlnDtr Id OWueN reached
st. Michaels, the beautiful port of the
Azores, spending a few hours there.
The trip from Azores across the Allan
tic was rough one, but finally the look
out on the Port Phillips was sighted,
and the custom house officers decided
that Owney's great collection of medals
and tags, though representing Il large
amount Of metal, was personal baggage
and so passed it.
Owney arrived in New York December
%, at noon. He was taken Immediately
to the postofiice, and after short recep-
tion by his many friends, started again
by the New York Central for Tacoma,
which he reached five days later, having
completed the circuit of the globe in 1872
days-a rapid rate of travelling for a dog
who attracted so much attention. Ownev
was visited by hundreds, young and old.
and so universal was the demand to see
him that Postmaster Case placed him on
exhibition in public hall. and people for
miles around made his acquaintance.
AT the end of his trip Owney had over
200 tags medals and certificates to add
TO his collection, and he is to-day. in all
probability, the best known and the
most universally popular dog in the
world
