This state of affairs was zht about by a recent and very un- nt experience, which for a time eatened to disrupt the institution.

The official count showed that Watkin- son had won by but five votes, and Gilligan chiarged that the ballots had not been cor- rectly counted. Oity Clerk Tompkins testi- fied that it would have been impossible to tamper with the ballots after they came into” his possession, as they had been pldced in a locker and sealed. No one could have seen the ballots without break- ing the seal, which had at all times been found intact. * The counting of ballots wastaken up late in the afternoon, but no changes were found. The case will go on to-morrow, and a large number of candidates who were de- feated at the late election will be on hand to take a snap-tally on the count with a view to seeing whether they were unjustly ‘treated during the official count, Lambert at Liberty.

He Immediately started out to visit his friends about town, and acted as unconcerned as though he was not the principal character in one of the most in- teresting cases with which the Oakland officials have had to deal in years past. The police have secured possession of a license and marriage certificate, which rove beyond a doubt that Lambert and ertie Mahaney, the girl who accompanied him on his trip to the islands, are man and wife, though the ceremony which made them one was not performed until they had been in Honolulu some time, and, in fact, only just before Lambert sailed for San Francisco. a The license was made out in due form, and on the reverse side was written the fol- lowing: HONOLULU, April 2, 1895.

Lambert will come up for examination in the Police Court to-morrow morning. Felled With a Slungshot. George Reed, a horse-dealer_ living on Twenty-third avenue, was the v unaccountable assault on Sevent ‘Washington streets at 10 o’clock this even- ing. He was walking down Washington street in the full glare of the electric light with Henry Atkinsop, a deputy constable f rds, when one oi four young men whom they met_suddenly stepped up and dealt him a terrific blow over the right eve | with a slungshot, felling him to the side- | walk as though dead. The men then ran | down Seventh street and disappeared in | the shadows of the houses. |~ Mr. Reed was carried into a neighboring lodging-bouse and a physician summoned, | who pronounced the wound dangerous. | Some time later he regained consciousness | and said he had never seen his assailant or | his companions before and was at a loss to | account for the assault. So suddenly was | the blow struck that the deputy constable could not betieve his companion was hurt | until he picked him up and saw the blood. | The police beiieve they can place the as- sailant. | Scalded to Death. | Beatrice M. Hunter, the two-year-old | daughter of F. W. Hunter of 1362 Beventh street, was so badly scalded by falling into | a bucket of boiling water on Friday even- ing that she died yesterday morning. The landlady of the house had taken the | water from a heater in an_outhouse and | placed it on the ground while she went in- | side to attend to other matters. When she irned she discovered that the roof Of' | extinguish the blaze. The child was back- | ir away from the door to get a better | view of ‘the fire, when she fell over the | bucket. Her back and hips were so baaly | burned that she could not survive, though | a physician who was called in did every- | thing possible for her relief. The Coroner was not notified until 4 o’clock yesterday | afternoon and until arrangements had | | been made with an undertaker to have the | remains buried. An inquest will be held to-day.

The injured man sustained a fracture of the jaw and is also suffering from concussion of the brain. ALAMEDA. Miss Agnes Tweter of Park avenue has received an official document from the authorities of Norway stating that she is the lawful heir of property valued at $100,000. This represents her share of the estate of her grandmother, who was a very wealthy lady of Norway. Miss Tweter has engaged Attorney G. E. Colwell to look | after her interests. The property consists | of numerous farms located in the most fertile sections of Norway. She expects to | leave soon for Europe. Funeral of G. W. Tyler. The funeral of the late George W.

The Town Clerk will be busily engaged | between now and election time in prepar- | ing both the sample and regular ballots used on election day. The preparation of these ballots is no small undertaking, as several diiferent and distinct tickets must be printed. According to law the clerk must mail to each voter whose name ap- pears on the Great Register, a copy .of the sample ballot not more than three days be- fore election. Much care is required in the dispensing of these ballots, as they are heretofore and some good racing isex- pected. Notes. J. J. Rose has filed a petition for nomi- nation for Town Trustee in the Fourth Ward. This petition is the only one re- ceived thus far by the clerk. The last da; upon which such petitions can be filed will be April 22, as the town election takes place on May 13. 5 The military department of the uni- versity has announced that the examina- tion in military science and tactics will take place on Mn{ 5 At a meeting of the class of 96 on Friday afternoon it was decided to give an enter- tainment in the near future, making the principal feature of the evening a produc- tion entitled “Fourth of July in Jones- ville.” 5 : 1t is announced that the wedding of Miss Mae Bates of Oakland, who is well known in Berkeley, and Dr. George Martin will take place in the First Presbyterian Church of Oakland at 4 o’clock to-morrow after- noon.

Special Easter services will be held in all the different churches to-day. Evangelist Varley will preach the morning sermon at the Trinity ‘Methodist Church. Sermons in the other churches will be delivered by their regular pastor: THIRTY-YEAR-OLD JOKE, What a Baltimore Captain Now Terms the Affray of the Time. Captaln Torsch Tells How He Captured a Line of Federal Rifle-Pits. Captain John W. Torsch of Baltimore has good reason to keep green in his mem- ory what might have been a serious 1st of April joke, says the Baltimore Sun in writ- ing up events of the 1st of April. Thirty years ago yesterday he was in command of the Second Maryland Battal- ion in General McComb’s brigade, lying below Petersburg. The Confederate army, composed of General A. P. Hill’s corps, had been lying in winter guarters, faced a short distance away by the Union line. Late in March a number of rifie-pits in front of General Cook’s brigade, in the camp line adjoining that of General Mec- Comb, had been captured and occupied by the Union forces. At midnight, March 81, 1865, a courier rode up to Captain Torsch’s headquarters with an order which, when | obeyed, seemed to have been inspired as an April-fool joke. The captain still has the innocent-look- ing paper in his possession. It reads: HEADQUARTERS MCCOMB'S BRIGADE, ) April 1, 1865. § Captain—You will report with your battalion under arms at once at the chapel of General Cook’s brigade. By command. BRIG.-GEN. WM. MCCABE. _ | To (fasmln Torsch, commanding Second | Maryland. | Captain Torsch thus tells the story of the result of his obeying the order: “In connection with Tennessee and Mis- sissippi commands the Second Maryland was expected to recapture a line of rifle- pits in front of General Cook’s brigade. It was rather tough work on a dark night, as we had neyer been over the ground before, I was reminded of the story of a coal-black negro trying on a dark night to catch a black cat in a dark cellar. “We followed behind our line of breast- works until we reached a point opposite the pits which were to be captured. Then we crawled forward a hundred yards or more and rested to await the signal to attack, which was to be the firingof a cannon. ““Just before daybreak the signal was given. We dashed forward, and in a very few minutes had completed our work by driving out the enemy and occupying the 3i - Only two men were wounded in this ash. “We awaited daylight before making a further move. When the light came the joke also dawned when we saw the curious redicament in which we had been placed. dvidently anticipating a move of this sort, the enemy had constructed a new line of its, some of them not fifty feet from our ront. “The firing commenced as soon as it was light enough for us to be seen. Inaddition to the fire from the front, every time one of the men made a move and showed himself there came a firing from our breastworks in the rear. The Confederate forces knew nothing of our attack and supposed we were the enemy. = "It was certain death to move from one pit to another. Orders were written, then wrapped about a bullet, which was thrown from pit to pit, for the men to save their ammunition and prepare to receive a charge. No charge came, however, but we were in constant dread of one. Lee Goldsborough, now a captain in Fifth Maryland Regiment, managed to crawl back to the breastworks and re- turn with additional ammunition, as ours was nearly used up. The intervening ground was covered with tree stumps, where a forest had been cleared away, an these offered some little protection for this daring venture. We were also able to_get word to the rear to have our own soldiers stop firing. “Bo our April-fool joke consisted of lying in the rifle-pits all day long. The hot sun poured down on us. We were without rations, could get no waterand could make no move to the rear untii after dusk. “Anxious for further orders and to see what had become of those who had been expected to supfiurt us in the advance, I crawled back to the breastworks. Leaving a trail behind me like that of a mole, onl. mine was & de‘f:ression in the soft earth, finally reached headquarters. Cheers and congratulations met me and I was given orders to withdraw the line. With some of the vim taken out of me by that day’s experience, I took advantage of my pre- rogative and sent a junior officer, who had been on picket duty, to carry out the order. By that time it was darker and the men had no great difficulty retiring from their perilous position. “Afterward we learned that Major-Gen- eral Heath, in whose division we were, bad taken means to protect the Second Maryland. As soon as he heard of the position in which we had been placed, he placed an artillery battery for our support in case of a charge from the front. “Altogether it was a very warm first of April for us.” THE PONY EXPRESS. How the Transcontinental Work Had Its Beginning. Alexander Benham of Butte City, Mont., was at the Grand Pacific Hotel last even- ing, having come East on “alittle mat- ter”? concerning his mining interests. He is one of the men who started the now famous ‘‘pony express’’ across the plains different for each ward, and a sample ballot for one ward will be of no use to a voter in another, U. C. Boating Crew. The members of the new boating crew which will represent the university in the contest with the Columbia Boat Club on the 27th inst. are: Trew, stroke and cap- tain; Whittenmeyer, No. 3; Cole, No. 2, and Hutchinson, bow. The men are in ex- cellent training, and their average weight is 161 unds. They have been working faithfully for the 8&5& two months under the dleaderslup of Coach Garnett of Har-~ vard. Fifteen men tried for places on the team, but the four mentioned were the only suc- cessful ones. Since the launching of their new $200 shell they have been enabled to do actual work on_the water, and have not been wholly confined to the rowing ma- chines in the gymnasium. i Much more interest in aquatic sports seems to be displayed this season than and the Rocky Mountains. Thatwas back in 1860. Said he: “The first express ever run across the plains was started by a man named Butter- field in 1858. It started at Little Rock, Ark.,, and followed a southern route through Kansas, New Mexico, Arizona and then to Los Angeles, Cal. About two years later, in 1860, our company was formed for the _purgose of carrying the mails to the Pacific Coast. It was known as the Central Overland, California and Pike’s Peak Express Company. William H. Russell, Alexander Majors and & man named Waddell formed the company, and the contracts with the Government for carrying the mails were made out in their names. 1 was chosen manager and had my office in Denver “This was long before Ben Holliday was known, and those accounts which have been m{lu that he was the man who first establis| the ‘pony express’ are alto- gether wrong. The records at Washington will show that I am right and that two lines of overland express were in operation at the time he started his express. How- ever, the Southern route run by Butter- field did not have as much prominence as ours, which for years was known as the ‘Jpcny express route.” It started in at St. oseph, Mo., running throueh Nebraska to Fort Kearney, Wyo., thence to Denver, to Balt Lake City, to Placerville, Ney., and to Sacramento, Cal. The whole &:ip, extend- ing half across the continent, was made in seventeen days when no accident befell and accidents were not so numerous as some people have imagined. From St. Joseph to Denver the trip took seven days and from Denyer to Sacramento was a Lourney of ten days. That was, of course, y the regular stage route, and little time was lost in making it. ‘“Po accommodate our business we had about 150 coaches, most of which were kept running all the time. To haul them we ad 1500 horses scattered along the route from St. Joseph to Sacramento. In addi- tion, we had 6000 or 7000 head of cattle which were used in_hauling heavy freight and transporting feed for the horses and provisions for our men. You can see that the business was not by any means a small one, and it continued to grow as long as there was any use for such means of trans- portation. This wasuntil the completion of the Union Pacific Railway to California in 1870. Then overland traffic and mail ser- vice could be arranged to better purpose by the railroad, and our pony express went out of existence. But up to that time, from the day that the route was first openes in 1860, its business had steadily increased. Even the building of the railroad assisted us, for our line was the best adapted for carrying to Western stations employes and provisions.”—Chicago Journal. e ——— Harmony in Odors. Ina treatise on the rose and its odors some interesting facts in_relation to that puiar flower have been brought to light. Eoumero\xs costly varieties of roses are grown in America for ornamental pur- poses, but in most other countries the cul- tivation is carried on for the sake of the manufacture of essences,. says the New York Recorder. The art of distilling roses originated in Persia about 1612, and in 1684 it is certain that the attar of roses was made on_a large scale at Shiraz. At the present day the odorous products of the rose are extracted in Bulgaria, France, Germany and to some extent in India, Persia, Tunis, Alger% Morocco and Egypt. In'Bulgaria the r damask roseis the favorite, while in the south of France the Proyence rose—the cabbage rose of Eng- land—is cultivated commercially. But while much attention is generally given to the develogment of the color, form and size of the flower, the great possibilities of the beautiful petals in the generation of varieties of perfumes have been hiterto but imperfectly understood. There are ex- perienced gardeners who can discriminate many species of rosesin the dark, recog- nizing them by their perfumes, and it is found that exquisite effects can be pro- duced by the crossing of varieties having special odorous characteristics. In fact, scents are almost as amenable to scientific combination as the notes of the musical scale, and the result of a happy blending of odors by cultivation is often “as distinc- tive and charming as the sound of a rich romantic harmony. ————————— An Experiment Spoiled. The late Professor Hyrtl was very fond of animals. Some years ago one of his fellow-professors undertook some experi- ments to ascertain the loss of weight in cases of starvation, using for the purpose alot of rabbits. The subjectsof the ex- periment were weighed every day, but, to the experimenter’s astonishment, they gained flesh instead of losing it. It was some time before he found out that Pro- fessor Hyrtl had been_keeping them well supplied with food.—San Francisco Argo- naut. ——e——————— The water in the Strait of Gibraltar is 150 fathoms deep.
