has ever seen, is the act of Jams Lick,
the wealthy San Franciscan, in deeding
almost the whole of his large roperty,
to public uses. He gives $700 000 for
the construction of the largest ad best
telescope in the world, for an obs rvatory
at Lake Tahoe; $300,000 for the eudow-
ment of a school of mechanical arts in
California ; $150,000 for the erection of
a bronze monument to the author of the
"Star Spangled Banner" in Golden
Gate Park, San Francisco; $150 000 for
public baths in San Francisco • 100,000
for an old ladies' home; $25,00 apiece

the Protestant orphan asylum, an the
city of San Jose for an orphan sylum ;
$10,000 each to the Mechanics' I brary iu

sides which there are other ifts that
carry the sum total up eon iderably

—A by-law has been introduced in

of $50 per head on commercial travelers.
The hotels and railways oppose the meas-
ure, but both wholesale and retail stores
aro favorable to it. Why have not some
of the smaller towns thought cif •follow-

matter? Some of the villages in this
vicinity might derive a handsome rev-

—A young married man, about 25
years of age,' named Iiaurice Dunsford,
cashier and book-keeper in a large car-
riage building establishment in Peter-
boro', having made too free use of his
employer's money, became a defaulter to
the extent of several thousands of dol-
lars. In order to hide his guilt, he pour-
ed poal oil over the books and then set
fire to them in the office. The result was
that the whole establishment was - con-
sumed. By some means the cash-book
was saved. An examination of this by
the proprietors at once revealed the de-
falcation. The young man was accused
of thecritne and partially confessed his
guilt. Before the necessary steps to se-
cure his arrest were taken he fled, and
hia present whereabouts cannot be ascer-
tained. It is said that Dunsford is most
respectably connected in Peterboro', and
