London, July 2S.-Almost as remarkable

the breakup of the Liberal party. Were a
general election far distant, the condition
OF the Liberal party would be serious, but,
in view of the fact that Parliament Is face
to face with dissolution. the situation of
the opposition seems hopeless. The forma-
tin: of a third party is generally consid-
cred almost inevitable as the result of the
internal dissensions now raging in Liberal
ranks.

Republican, Placsrville, June 81, 1900
A cutting ARRAY occurred at Green
wood last Tuesday afternoon or even
ing. John Young of Pilot Hill quarrel
ed with his son, Thomas Young, and
sIashed the latter across the ribs with
a pocket knife, making long shallow
flesh wound, which did not penetrate
the chest cavity. The son then at
tackled his father with his fists, beating
him severely. No complaints or ar
rests have yet been made.
1t is announced that the Western
Union telegraph Office in Placerville is
to be consolidated with the Southern
Pacific Office at the depot after the first
of July and will be in charge of R. K.
Berry. The change is undoubtedly
due to the increase of telephone busi-
ness, which has encroached seriously
upon kilograms. In removing the
business to the depot, the necessity Of
hiring an operator is dispensed with as
there is no salary attached to the Office
when consolidated with the S. z. depot.
The Western Union has had in Bert
Stewart first class operator in charge
and there has been no dissatisfaction
with the service rendered, but it is the
old story of new form of business
upsetting an older form.

DR.. Seaman is an authority on japan,
and he tells this story of his last visit
to that country:
There was little incident happen
ed while we were in port that showed
the magnanimity of those people. A
United States soldier was out riding a
bicycle, and he was coasting down hill.
when he ran over a man. They
promptly arrested him, and he was
taken before a magistrate. We all
went up from the transport to see how
things went with him. The magis-
trate heard the case and fined him SIS
for running over blind man.
"'Whatp said the soldier; was the
man blind? Here, give him $20,' and
he pulled out a $40 goldpiece and hand
ed 1t over to the magistrate.
"And what do you think they did
They were SO pleased that they remit
ted the whole fine, or would have done
so. only the soldier would not take it
back. but insisted on its being given to
the blind man, and then they gave him

Carriers are paid by warrants, direct

Postmaster. Their rate of pay is fixed
by the Department, and includes horse
hire, but not necessary tolls or ferriage,
for which separate account must be
rendered.
One or more substitute carriers

-mitted to carry the mails in the absence
or disability of the regular carrier.
Accounts for service must be rendered
in the name of the regular carrier, and
he must pay his substitute a proper pre-
rata for the service rendered.
All rural carriers are under the con.

Henry M. DaigeI, the, cook who
threw the frying pan at Walter E. E.
Luke in the kitchen of the Leger Hotel
last week and inflicted pretty bad cut
on the latter's face mention. of which
was made in our last issue, had his ex-
animation before Judge Burce last
Monday on charge of assault with in
tent to. do great bodily harm. The
people were represented by District At
torney A. L. McSorley and Judge Ira
Hill Reed of San Andreas looked out
for the defendants interests. The
waiter testified as to the facts in the
case, from the time he told the cook to
thin the mush down from oue-fnger
consistency to two-fnger mash, until
the frying pan flew through space and
mashed" him on the side of the head,
when he lost all further interest in cul-
mary matters and retreated for repairs.
The cook took the stand in his own
behalf and told his side of the story,
reitering parts of the walters testimony
and denying other parts, and accusing
the complainant in general terms of
conniving to make matters interesting
for him.
Young Daigel, lad about IA years of
age, who was engaged as dishwasher
and saw the fracas, testified to matters
much on the same strain as his father,
but he was so badly scared after he had
been sworn that he hardly knew what
end he was sitting on and his testimony
did not throw much light upon the
case.
The case was submitted to the court,
without argument, and taken under
advisement until three o'clock, when
the Judge rendered his decision, dis
charging the prisoner.
