guished men who acted as psllbearers at the

April Is. 1865.
"Worthington was then "a representative

first position in public life. He was mem
ber Of the California Legislature in 1851, and
served together with the recently retired
Justice Field. He was with Walker, the fiji
buster. in his expedition TO Nicaragua, and
barely escaped the fate that betell Walker and
several Thousand of his followers.
"Worthngton participated in the admission

living who stumped California for General
John q. Fremont. He was great friend OF
Fremont. AMI WAS his legal repres sntative in
settling up his Mariposa estate. in California.
He was sent by Nevada rs her first Repre-
sentat,v ,vo in Congress. Nye and Stewart came
along at the same time as Senators. When
Grant was in California, long before the war,
he became acquainted with Worthngton. The
friendship that sprung ,up between thcm in
the Golden State was severed only by Grants
death.

II II Is trus that Minister De LONE
wrote the remarkable communication In
which the President of the United states
Is referred TO as "low politician" and
other reflections are made on men and
matters American. the result is likely to
bs serious to the Spanish minister.
Senor De LONE has. through all the
years of the Cuban struggle. proved him
self singularly clever diplomat in his re-
lations with the government at Washing
ton and, through the press with the
American people. Despite the popular
feeling in favor Of the Cubans and
against Spain, IL is to 20 said that the
Spanish minister has maintained the
good will of the American people. That
there have been attempts on the part Of
the Cuban junta anc the more aggres-
sive Cuban sympathizers to discredit the
minister and move the American people
to include him In their anti Spanish SEN
timents has from time to time seemed
clear. But such attempts have been un-
availing. Even the publication from
such an Interested soIrcs as tho junta OF

DE LONE when young man In which
some very offensive ard very foolish stuff
was printed about this country and the
Americans failed TO arouse any hostility

that explanation was deemed satisfactory
by tolerant people who had so long
shown their good will to SPANS repre-
sentative. however much feeling there
miaht exist against the government at
Madrid.
But If this letter Is authenticated 1t will
be clear that the Spanish minister il the
snake in the grass that the Cuban junta
has always painted him. ard that the
American popols have persisted in refus
ing TO believe. OF courss. the communi-
cation that gives the ofrepsD was n pri-
vate letter but the language of it is not TO
be excused on that ground Indeed, IL IL
is authenticated, nothing can excuse il.
and the Spanish ministers passports are
likely to be promptly sent him.

in the Tslma Theatre last evening. There
was little tosbe seen OF the the unsightly and
grotesque costumes that are so often in evil
dence at these affsirs, but there were many
court costumes while those representing the
ordinary stations o; life were not absent. Tts
masks produced many cases ct mistaken ideL-
tity, snd when the masks Were .aken Of there
was no end of fun. There were ten sqlarJ
dances on the pl ogram and as many ~ one
made round dances. that everybody was
suited. The unmasking came after the third
number. when the jollity reached height
OF entertainment impossible TO imIrov upon.
A substantial lunch was served during inter-

The Msn Who First Discovered Gold
In California.

Had Marshall been a man Of ordinsry
shrewdress or tact. he could have made a
fortune by taking up claims and working
them by hired labor. Instead re wasted
his time and energies in efforts to pre-
vent predatory attacks on his cattle and
saw mill. and caused SO much Ill feeling
that he was forcsd TO seek safety by
fight This experience soursd his dis
position, snd on his return he foolishly
boaste,. Of rich mines of which he knew,
but the location Of which he refused to
disclose. Hungry Irospectors, eager to
make their fortunes were driven nearly
irsane by such tantalizinp, and again
Marshall was comreled to leave sud-
denly to save his life. His mill was torn
down and most cf his property confis-
Gated. He returned, built small cabin
near tie scene Of his great discovery. and
there lived the life Of recluse, prospect
ing in the mountains aud eking out q
poor living.
Efforts were made 10 secure a pension
for tho man who started the great devel-
opment OF California, and tho Legisla.
ture granted ALLOW ances for four years,
amounting in all to $1,000. This was all
the money that Marshall ever recsived
from the stats for discovery that made
scores tf millionairts. and that crowded
into ten years the normal development Of
a half f-eentury. Marshall regarded him
self as an ill-used man. He nursed his
grievsncr. and as hermit he lived till
August 10, 1895, when he was found dead
in his lonely cabin.
His grave is on hill not far from the
site Of his great discovery, ana two years

was the weapon and the evidences IL that
the crime was deliberately planned. the
woman having made arrangements to get
away from the house and tho town b fore
the crime should be discovered. The very
hideonsness OF the actual and tho at

successfully undertake so heroulean
crime, though to these defects, physical
and mental, IL is usual to attribute In

that very woman's weakness, however,
