The Plague at Bombay.

LONDON, Oct. 5.-The fact that the
dreaded dubonic disease has obtained a
strong footing in Bombay is established
beyond question, and the situation is
regarded as most serious. Other towns
have taken quarantine measures and
the city Of Bombay has been placed out
of bounds for troops. The outbreak Il

SENTENCED FOR LIFE.
James Lee Will Spend the Remainder
of His Days at Folsom.

James Lee. the murderer of Molie
Allen, will not stretch hemp, but will
spend the remainder of his life in Fol-
som Prison.
Judge Hinkson pronounced the SEN
tence at 1:3O yesterday afternoon that
consigns Lee to living death. so far as
the outside world is concerned. After
reviewing the history of the crime, he
said the prisoner had shot down q de-
fenseless woman most cruelty and he
believed that he was perfectly we'll
aware what he was doing at the time.
Evidence had been adduced at the trial,
however, that he had at times acted as
If he was not mentally sound.
Taken altogether, the evidence had
created a doubt as to whether the ex-
treme penalty of the law should be in
fiicted. When there is a reasonable
doubt it is the duty of the court, as it is
of the jury, to give the prisoner the BEN
eft of the doubt. AS to the justice OF
the sentence there could be no doubt
and he should bear his punishment and
for the remainder of his life try to atone
for his great crime by setting a good
example to those with whom he would
be associated, and should repent so that
when he came to die he should be for
given.
He then sentenced Lee to prison for
life.
Lee, who had during the morning
made a personal plea of guilty, and who
had told his attorney that he wanted to
be sentenced for a term of years, took
his sentence stoaidly and would not,

ON the subject The indications are that
the greater quantity of the lighter ma
ter1al has already reached the valley,
but just how much still remains in the
streams above, to be attacked and
moved down by the winter floods, we
have not the necessary data to give a
careful and Impartial report.
Fifth-From the standpoint Of river
preservation, we would say that any
process of action, either natural or arti-
fetal, that will increase the matter in
suspension in silt bearing streams, will,
In corresponding degree, retard the
securing force of the water. and thereby
fnjure the preservation Of the capacity
and navdgability of the rivers. 1t is,
therefore, Question that must be an
swered by the effect produced by dams
as to whether hydraulic mining can be
carried ON behind them without injury to
the navigable streams. From our
knowledge of the forces that are now
acting on the navigable streams of the
State of California, and the effects pro-
duced by floods, it lis of the utmost i'm
portance that the rivers be assisted, in
SAA~
already formidable silt deposits that are
now in them.
Slxth-If hydraulic mining is to be re-
sumed and the material restrained, un-
doubtedly series of dams must be con-
structed, in order that any very mate
rial part of the detritus shall be re-
strained.
Seventh-It is impossible for us to
give a reasonable estimate of the cost of
constructing dams if hydraulic mining
is to be resumed. No dam should be
constructed that will not be permanent
and lasting as time itself. The conditions
surrounding the location will, therefore,
govern the cost OF construction. rep
etition of the construction Of dams upon
the same plan as advised and built by
State Engineer William Ham. Hall
would, in our opinion, be far from meet
ing the requirements of the case, and
should any be constructed the work
should be under and by the advice of the
best engineering skill An intelligent and
safe opinion as to the manner of con-
sEructing dams can only be given after
a thorough survey and investigation of
the conditions to be satisfied. which
would require many months of labor in
the field accommodating data at present
not at hand. 1t is to be regretted that
the necessary data has not been OBJ
tadned. and herein lies the Importance of
a constant investigation of the subject,
in order that a just and reasonable So

over a call Of the turn when one of the
interested parties drew an ugly looking
knife and slashed another across the
throat, making a wound about six
inches long.
Fear that the incident would result in

TOROUATO TASSO.
Love Had Turned His Brain-A Widely
Celebrated Poet.

Love Had Turned His Brain-A Widely
Celebrated Poet.
Tasso was beyond question the most
celebrated poet in a day of immortals,
says the Quarterly Review. His epic
had found an audience before it was
finished, wherever the Italian language
was studied or spoken. Queen Eliza
beth, as though neither Shakespeare
nor Spenser had begun "to live with
the eternity of her fame" desired in
Tasso's rhymes to be remem bered, and
envied the Estian princes. His genius
and sufferings, perhaps not without
suspicion that love had turned his brain,
were known at Paris and in the court
at Greenwich. But Montaigne, who re-
published his Essays" in 1882, speaks
of having seen him at Ferrara, zen 81
piteux estat, suivant a soy mesme, meg
cognoissant ct soy ct ses ouvrages, les
Queles, sans, son seen, ct toutesfois,
sa veue, on a mis- en- lumieres, incorri-
gez, ct informes' 1t was too true.
From the sale of his poem the author
did not receive one single scudO. Worse
still, as if it had been property dere-
lict, editors, not asking leave nor with
Tasso's revision before them, flung
themselves upon it-"ubicorpus, ibi
aQuilae congregantur" they published
each his own version at Venice, Parma,
Mantua, and in the same year no less
than eight editions saw the light. OF
these the first, published in Venice by
Cello di Malespini-a brigand who well
deserved his name-was literally stolen;
but, as Cherbuiiez remarks, had Cello
not committed this robbery, we might
never have seen the original poem
Febo Donna alone had Tasso's assist
ance during his publication. But the
long battle with Silvio proves that, even
in the earlier stages of his mental dis
order, the poet would have kept to the
first design. 1t was not until weakness
grew upon him that he changed the
personages, hardened the outlines and
added the fierce strokes which make
the "Conquistata" both a gloomy and
NOR bid legend of untempered zeal. The
world has passed judgment on this at
tempt to deface a noble work. When
the "Conquistata" came out, some few
read, and fewer applauded. The last
good edition is dated 1898, and only
the curious are aware that it contains

prophetic, of the calamities which just
two centuries later were to overwhelm

count of what was deemed an insult to

GOLDBUG BAKER.

Under the caption "Goldbug Baker of
Kansas" Senator Stewards paper, the
Silver Knight, after reviewing his
speech in an extended editorial article,
addresses the people of this state as fol-
lows:
We call the particular attention of the
people of Kansas that Mr.. Baker is the
first senator who ever represented that
tied coinage of silver at the ratio of 16
to by the United States alone. Ingalls,
and Plumb who served that state SO long
with such eminent ability,s were fore
most in the ranks of those who favored
the restoration of the money of the con-
stitution by the free and unlimited coin
age of silver by the United States acting
Independently, aud at the ratio of
16 to 1. Senator PETER, the successor of
MIR. ingalls,, has been from the time he
took his seat an earnest, Intelligent and
able advocate of the coinage of both
gold and silver at the established ratio
by the United States alone. Senator
Martin, who took the place of Mr.. Plumb,
spoke and voted for the free and unlimit-
ed coinage of silver at every opportunity
which offered him. But MIR. Baker is for
free coinage after parity shall have been
secured. Plumb, Ingalls,, Martin and
PETER have all favored free coinage to
produce parity. Baker is in favor of
gold alone to produce disparity and as
signs the disparity thus produced as the
reason why he is opposed to the free
coinage of silver
The remainder of the article indicates
that the Silver knight regards Senator
Baker as rejecting the sentiments of the
Republicans of Kansas, but in this it is
greatly mistaken.

Will Be Given Work and Labor Checks
Beginning today able bodied men who
want to live off the county will be given
a chance to earn what they get. Those
who are willing to quarry and break
stone, need not suffer for want of some
thing TO eat.
Those who ask Poor Commissioner
Hale for help will be given an order on
the superintendent of the stone quarry
near the fair grounds to be put to work.
The county has had one man at work
there all the time and he will bs ad-
vanced to overseer. He will give each
person who works a check for the amount
he earns which he can cash in to Mr..
Hale for food. As Commissioner Hale
Is not running his business for profit, he
will let the Iaborers have provisions at
cost. This will make days work keep
a man in provisions for two or three
days
Part of the stone which is quarried
will be used at the county rock pile by
Jail prisoners and part will be broken by
the poor people For this the county
will probably allow forty cents worth of
food for each yard.

new senator from South Carolina. the
successor of gentlemen of character and
ability should thus throw away his op-
portunity aud all probability of infiuen ce
and standing in Washington and before
the country, as he has done by this
speech. He cannot hereafter expect to
be taken seriously in anything he may
say, or to be counted as above the level
of a slang whanging buffoon and dema-
gogue. Such a speech may amuse the
senate and the country, but more of the
same sort will only bore both.-Spring-
