he would receive for the Postoffice order.
He did not call upon any one at the Pre-
sidio and nothing was heard of him for
several days.
On Wednesday, January 13. he was
found wandering around the streets in the
southern part of the City, and he appeared
TO be demented. He could tell his name,
but nothing would convince him that he
was not in Vancouver.
He was dressed in an old suit of clothes
and wore pair of old brogans. There
was no money IN his pockets, and there
was an ugly scar on his forehead which
had not quite healed.
January Is he was taken before the
Insanity Commissioners and sent to the
Almshouse. He remained there for about
a week and then wandered away.
Sunday last he was found wandering
along Sutter street and was sent to the
Receiving Hospital. Kenny has no recol-
lection whatever OF being in this City, and
it is impossible to get any statement from
him. It is supposed that he had been
decoyed into some den, where he was
knocked down and robbed OF mis- money,
clothing and boots, and after a few days
was cast adrift In the old suit.
He was perfectly sane when he arrived
here, and it is believed that the blow on
the forehead has affected his brain.

The Committee of the Old Grand Jury
Reports to the New Body.
The park committee of the late Grand
Jury appeared before the present Grand
Jury, at its session yesterday, and laid be-
fore it report concerning its investiga-
ton of certain financial transactions by
the Park Commission. The committee OF
the old Grand Jury was com posed of G. C.
Burr, Will Ashe and J. c. Nealon. They
were given full opportunity to elaborate
upon their report, no other business being
taken up during the afternoon. The re-
port itself Is not big document and con-
tains nothing that has not already been
published.
The committee OF the present Grand
Jury numbers tnree-M. P. Frogley (chair-
mani, P. o. Ahern and w. n. Brunt-but
will be enlarged to take up the matters
complained of and a thorough investiga-
tion will be made.
Chairman Pelxotto says he Is convinced
from what he has heard that there has
been no intentional wrong in the conduct
of the affairs of the park. If there has
been anything to which exception may
be taken it has grown out of lapses OF
vigilance in the many financial transac-
tions. However, he says, the whole
matter will be looked into closely.

that this would be the limit for such male
factors as are convicted in his court OF
burglary in private residences.
Judge Cook makes a distinction in cases
where burglar merely enters a store or
other unoccupied building for the purpose
of obtaining plunder That course, while
it is highly reprehensible and ought to be
met with proper punishment, does not
cali for the extreme penalty. The court
holds that the lives of peaceable citizens
are endangered when burglar enters a
private residence, for he goes there pre-
pared 10 do murder III the event Of re-
sistance being offered to him in his depre-
dations.
Another point TO which Judge Cook
directed attention was the patent perjury
that had been committed by the defend
ant in the present case. He said that
hereafter witnesses would be held to a
strict accountability, and that he would
cause the imm ediate arrest of all witnesses
who testified falsely in his hearing, even
if it took most of his time to try the per-
jury charges.

THE EAGLES WAY OUT.

Last week the Eagle broke loose from all its po'
litical mQOrings, and in common with many other
papers OF the same political faith, ignored Kepub
lican theories and party leaders and virtually ad'
mitted the only way out for the o. p to be through
the Kansas hen.
Gold standard, high tariff, bmetasm and inter,
national conference are left to the demnlt'on bow
vows and the Eagle too has evidently lost faith IN
McKiney's extra session. Listen to the sobs OF
melancholy 1--WE have found that the way out is

poor ghostl The pathos of this would be over
towering, we're it not for the fact that in abandon
ing its idols and ignoring its political gods the
Eagle has found comfort companionsh Up ana 1u
compensation in the Kansas hen.
Evidently the new blood infused into the Eagle is
beginning to assert itself.
We hardly think the senior Eagle would have
burned his bridges completely, or plghted his

hen even though she be jolly hen and seductive

he has hatred of wrong and and an answering

M wonder then that he braved the conseq uences,
and denuding his political affairs of the symbols oil
bis faith, fastened them, wing and tail, to the Kan
sas hen.
As matter OF. theory this is right.
Prac ically there is much of solemnity and pathos
IN the pictures that arise before us as we contem
plate this transition. 70
Imagine the elder Eagle foregoing tariff discus
sion and devoting his energies to stirring up an an
tiauated dominecker with sharp stick to remind
her that the eyes Of the nation are upon her
Think of the gentle, genial joyous junior Eagle,
