SACRAMENTO, Jan. 9.—Governor George C. Pardee and G. B. Daniels, publisher of the Oakland Enquirer, have been notified by the City Board James C. Dunham, the sextuple mur- derer of Campbell. P. B. Payne, A. W. Hall and E. Weisendanger, all of Campbell, found the remains in the Pa- | checo Pass hills yesterday, and they brought them to the County Jail to-! day, thinking that they were relics of Dunham. William A. Beasly, an attor- | ney, accompanied them to see that they | lost none of their rights in making the demand for the $10,000 reward that the citizens of San Jose had offered for the murderef of the McGlincy family. t The Payne party had been hunting | for geese in the San Joaquin, near Los Banos, for a week, and Thursday start- ed for their homes at Campbell. About four and a half miles above Bell sta- tion, in the Pacheco Pass, Payne got out of the rig to hunt quail on the side of a hill. He had taken but a few steps in the brush when he came on a skull. He called to his companions, and they made a search of the place. The skull lay about fifty yards from the fence on the north side of the road. On a little flat 100 yards farther up the hill, under some oaks, the remains of a skeleton and a bicycle were found. Scattered about on the ground were particles of clothing and a revolver. In the skull 1s a bullet hole just behind the right ear, which shows that the man committed suicide or was murdered. Payne and his comrades gathered up everything | they could find that belonged to the | | remains ahd brought them to this city. { PISTOL AND BICYCLE. | Two o'clock this afternoon they! brought their exhibit to the County Jail. It consists of the skull, cross- bones and & few ribs and other bones. | There is a F. & W. 38-caliber revolver, a box nearly full of cartridges, a pearl handle penknife, scraps of a blue or black sweater and part of a leather belt. In the lower jaw the second and third molars are filled with gold, and in the lower jaw the second and third molars on the left and the second molar | on the right are gold-filled. Two of| | the chambers of the revolver were empty. A whisky and vaseline bottle were also found. The bicycle 1s a| Rambler, model 12, 1893 make, and nufnbered 3740.

A key ring and five keys were among | | they know of the subject of sewer gas | city | the foul odors which filled the apart- of Health to appear before that body next Thursday night and tell what and bats. The proceeding arises from formial charges filed last night with the Board of Health by Governor Pardee against Plumbing Inspector Chapman. Soon after he installed his family in the newly purchased executive man- sion Governor Pardee was struck by N _-5—_\ /':,-// ments. He sent for a local plumber, who informed the Governor that his new home was infested by bats. . The Governor, not satisfied, called in_the Plumbing Inspector, who coincided in the bat theory of the local plumber. The odors increasing, the Governor sent'to Oakland for Fred Pierce, a plumber, and the latter, after an in- spection of the premises, discovered the seat of the trouble in an open | sewer under the mansion. The Gov- ernor was indignant over the situa- tion and expressed himself in strong language concerning the peril in which his family had been placed from the deadly sewer gas. ‘When Plumbing Inspector Chapman learned of the Governor's action in sending to Oakland for a plumber his official dignity was offended and he an- nounced that unless Plerce came back and did his work over again according to local regulations he would place him under arrest, The Governor met this threat of the Plumbing Inspector by formally charg- ing him with incompetency, and ap- pearing before the Board of Health in person to substantiate his charges. He was accompanied by Editor Dan- iels of Oakland, who was his guest at the time the sewer gas pervaded the mansion, and Daniels told of his de- tection of the odors and his inspection with the view to finding the cause. The Governor’s charges are formal in character and uttered with great re- gard for legal exactness. The Governor signs the charges in his capacity as a doctor of medicing. Chapman’s defense will be that he is not supposed to hunt for sewer gas; that is the Sanitary Inspector’s duty. The hearing will be resumed next Thursday night. BRUSSEL not laid.

Gilkey, a bicycle repalirer, stated positively this afternoon that the wheel | was not the one owned by Dunham. | He had done some work on Dunham'’s | wheel the day before Dunham Kkilled | the McGlincy family. At that time Dunham had an Ontario wheel. This | one is a Rambler. The bones are those | of a small man, while Dunham was |large. While the party who discovered | the remains believed they were Dun- | ham’s, Sheriff Langford and his depu- | | tieg take small stock in it. They are | more inclined to believe the remains | | those of T. F. Porter, a printer of Fres- | no, who disappeared in 1894 or 1895. | | FRESNO, Jan. 9.—The belief is heid | {in this city that the discovery of a | | skeleton and a bicycle in the Pacheco | Pass explains the disappearance of T. | F. Porter, a printer who rode away from this city on his wheel in the early | part of December, 1895, and has never | since been heard from. Porter was an | enthusiastic wheelman and made nu- | merous long trips on his bicycle. The | | occasion of his trip at the time he dis- f appeared was to find a good duck hunt- | |ing field in the sloughs in the western | | part of Merced County. ! A party of hunters, Porter among them, proposed making an extensive | hunt, and he went out to search for| | good territory. He was last seen start- ing out of Los Banos toward the Goast | range. The road he was on led direct- ly into the Pacheco Pass, where -the | | skeleton was found. The wheel beside the skeleton was a Rambler, bought in this city in April, 1895, from 8. M. | Thompson. Unfortunately Thomp-[ son’s books previous to 1896 have been destroyed. However, it is known that | Porter bought a Ramblér wheel, with | | copper plated steel rims, from Thomp- | son some time during 1895, and it was| {on this wheel that he rode away. The | | theory has always been held here that | Porter got lost in the slough country or perhaps met with an accident and died there. Now, however, there are' many of his intimates who believe he started through the Pacheco Pass to visit his parents at Santa Cruz, a trip he had made once before. | Porter was a man about 5 feet 9 inches in height and of medium frame. | At thetime he disappeared he wore dark clothes and a black sweater. One of his intimates here states that he had several gold teeth. —_——— Alcohol From Sawdust. ‘ It is reported that a Norwegian chem- ist has discovered a new and cheap process of making alcohol from saw- dust. This waste product of the mill is treated under pressure with diluted sulphuric acid, by which tke cellulose is transformed into sugar, which, by adding fermentation producers, is con- verted into alcohol in the ¢ld manner and then distilled. One hundred kilo- grams (220.46 pounds) of sawdust yield from 6 to 7 kilograms (132 to 15.4 pounds) of alcohol. Valuable by-pro- ducts are also obtained in the process. ‘While in Norway 100 kilograms of po- |. tato alcohol cost $10 50, th;' price of 50.—Ex- | e | gain forms the central point of the town. The plan has met with enthusiastic re- sponse throughout Denmark.

The samples| show a range in value of from $2000 to $3000 to the ton. The discovery was made about twenty-nine miles north of | Reno by William J., Alexander and John W. Simpson after a year of hard work and privations. It is said that there is a large area of pay rock in the vicinity of the big strike, and that the locajity may prove to be another Tono- | pah. Mining men are agreed that if| there is any considerahle quantity of ore like the samples displayed the mine | that it comes from will prove one of the | heaviest prgducers in the West. The rock was taken from a tunnel at | a depth of fifty feet. It is free milling | and fairly glitters with the yellow met- | al. The vein is now eighteen inches wide and carries values across its en- tire face. The owners say the lead bears every indication of being perma- | nent. Kentucky Woman’s Reason. A young woman of Lexington, Ky., Miss Florence Graham Offut, has hit upon a new method of publicity. She is out with a “card to the public” discuss- ing the reasons that prompted her to refuse to marry the rich and aristo- cratic Judge Stout unless she could continue in her profession, which is that of “teacher of physieal culture™ in the State College. Her work is pure« ly a matter of consclence, It seems—a sort of protest against “the senseless round of gayety” in which most women travel. “Any woman can maintain a home and a profession if she cares to. It is a matter of attending fewer card partles, that is all.” Marriage and di- vorce do not afford enough opportunity to get one’s name in the paper. The men rejected are to be turned to ae- count.—New York .Tribune. Weak Men Made Strong. Contracted Ailments Cured Quickly. DR. HOLSMAN Simpson and Alexander started their prospecting early last winter. They uncovered their strike in January last, but did not make the find known until | now. They had little means and sub- sisted precariously, their chief diet be- ing salt pork and beans. Both are ex- perienced miners, and they knew that everything pointed to a strike further on and persisted in their work. Every two weeks one or the other would go into town and procure supplies, but they were careful not to divuige the success they were meeting with or the location of their prospect. 3 It was on New Year's day of this| year that the strike was made. The vein was uncovered at last, and as they probed it deeper it widened out. The lucky and determined prospect- ors are now arranging to develop their find upon the proper scale. Mining meh are enthusiastic over the ore displayed, and it is likely that there will be some- thing like a rush to the vicinity of the | new discovery. ——— No physician will question the state-. ment that alcoholics taken to the point of intoxication increase the suscepti- bility to infectious diseases.
