LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Safe Burglars. — Yesterday afternoon an
employe at Schaefer's cooper shop, on X
street, between Front and Second, entered
the building, which u*more of a shed than a
house, and as he did so saw a man run into
the alley. . He also found another man stand
ing near an old safe used to keep papers in.
Upon being questioned as to what was
wanted, the tramp replied, "1 am looking
for a place to sleep." . "All right,'" said the
employe, " come with me ; " and leading him
into the alley he pointed towards the city
jail and said, "Go down, yonder and
they will give you a first-class spring
mattress a new — the latest pat
ented feather bed, and keep you
en a charge, though they will charge you
nothing." The grateful fellow took his
departure, but did not ask charity at the
hands of Landlord Dunlevy. The cooper then
returned to the shop and found that a hole
had been -cut partially through the safe door
with tools belonging in the shop. The work
was done in a bungling manner, that indi
cated that they were but tramps, who hap
pened to stray into the place and thought
they could secure its contents. On going to
his room he found a trunk broken open, and
his coat and two pairs of socks were gone.
The rascals also left their well- worn stogas in
exchange for better boots. The loser is now
satisfied that they had on the stolen property
when he saw them, but he did not notice it
at the time.
Mr. Oyster is Insulted. — Two gentle
men, both strangers in the city and to each
other, on Saturday evening were in one ot the
leading places of public entertainment of the
city, when a mutual friend proposed to intro
duce them, not deeming the fact that both
the parties were in that peculiar state which
is the debatable ground between convivial
sociability and oblivion an objection to the
proceeding. One of the parties bears the
name of Royster — no relation to those of that
name hereabouts. The introducer, in the
presence of a large number of bystanders,
and in the must graceful manner, proceeded,
"Mr. Koyster, Mr. Smith Mr. Smith, Mr.
Royster." * To : which Mr. Smith with a
slightly overdone bow—" Mister 'Oyster ? ah,
happy, to be sure — California or transplanted,
shir?" "And then, amidst the surging waves
of laughter that swept over that crowd and
lifted it off its feet, Mr. 'Oyster got up on bis
dignity and roared — "D'ye mean to inshult
me, sir ? D'ye mean — " but Smith, true to
the wit of his race, replied, " It's joke,
tatsall ; letsh take drink." And they drank—
while people in that crowd fairly butted
themselves against the wall in the insanity of
their mirth, for the scene and the manner of
the actors were far too ludicrous to be de- ,
picted in print.
Attempted Suicide. Yesterday morning
about 11 o'clock William J. Robertson, re
siding at Sit. 1* street, attempted suicide by
stabbing himself with a pair of scissors. Ac
cording to the statements of members of the
family, he came up from San Francisco a day
or two ago, having been there on busiuess
connected with his recent appointment as
turnkey at the State Prison. Since his re
turn be has been unwell, and on Saturday
night took a heavy dose of laudanum to pro
duce sleep. Yesterday morning Mrs. Robert
son noticed that he was somewhat delirious,
and fearing that be might injure himself,
carefully removed ' all . dangerous articles.
After she had left the room, however, he
secured a large pair of scissors and made two
oi three severe wounds on bis neck and also a
penetrating dangerous thrust into his right
side. When discovered he was bleeding pro
fusely and was in an exhausted condition.
Physicians express the opinion that he cannot
Pebsonal. — J. R. Howell, conductor on

CAPITOL NOTES.
• This being a legal holiday the meeting of
the Committees on Water Rights and Agri
culture, which was to have taken place to
night, has been postponed until Wednesday
evening, when it will be held in the Assembly
chamber, and Assembly Bill No. 334, "To
promote drainage," will be discussed before
the committee. " . '.'-.-.- ~ '"
' The bill introduced by Senator West, to
establish a branch Normal School at Los An
geles, and providing for an appropriation of
850,000 to erect a building for that purpose,
is regarded at the Capitol as having no pros
pect of becoming a law at present, ' while
many strong friends of the Normal School
feel that Mr. West's bill, introduced at this
time, can have no other effect than to antago
nize the bill making an appropriation for re
building at San Jose.
The Assembly Judiciary Committee is not
indulging in the holiday recess, but remained
in the city and is making long hours in its
sessions, to get its work up by the time of re
assembling of the Legislature to-morrow.
The bills before it largely refer to amendments
of the Code of Civil Procedure. -
The following testimony was taken before
the Folsom - Branch - Prison Investigation
Commission Friday evening, Mr. Tyler Chair
man." Mr. Duncan testified that the quarry
belonging to the State was sufficient to fur
nish all stone required, but had not frontage
enough to be worked to advantage. ' '. -.
Question— ls it not a fact tliat the place
where the stone was quarried on the Natoma
Ditch Company's land was where the ditch
company was to run its canal? Answer —
Yes, sir ; I suppose they were going to run it
there. '•■ '■ fl
Q. — Were there not some materials ob
tained from the Natoma Ditch Company
upon orders ? A — At one time we got some
lumber and things by requisitions upon that
company. '
Q. — Were there not some tools and
machinery taken from that company and
paid for, and if so, how much was paid?
'A. — There were some tools purchased of the
company, and some . derricks ' by the State.
Think the architect did it, but probably un
der direction of the Board. They took some
old derricks, cars and tools. The tools and
derricks were old ones, but could be made
over. Thiuk something like §2,000 was paid
for these old tools, etc. Some new ones were
also bought of the ditch company." The
whole amount paid for new and old ones was
about §3,500, I believe. V-
Q. — Did you refuse to certify to th» bill
for these things? A. — Yes, Sir; I think I
did. '- ■ • ■-"
Q. — Why did you refuse to certify to
them ? A. Because I had not weighed the
matter and examined the things . sufficiently.
What became of the tools? A.— We
worked the tools and derricks over and used
them.
, O. — How much cement was used there
each day on the works? A. Jordan used
from two to three barrels of Portland cement
each day. He used of Rosedale cement
about one barrel to three or four barrels of
lime, and probably used about nine barrels
of lime each day. . . y . ; .'...'
Q. — I find here at one time an item of 100
kegs of nails, do you know of anything this
amount of nails could be . used for then ?
A. — No, sir.
Q. — Do you know of anything 175,000 feet
of lumber could be used for ; I find an item
of that amount ordered on May 13, 1879 ?
A.— No, sir ; only a shed was built, that I
know of. .
v. *.»ii..Jt. vwi.»i. l»c iwm. 4..-1 , x UI.U au item
of that amount ordered on May 13, 1879 ?
A.— No, sir ; only a shed was built, that I
know of. .
Governor Irwin— l would state that this
was intended to complete the whole building.
To Mr. Irwin— Did your Board authorize
Mr. Bennett to allow Mr. Duncan to draw
on the Natoma Water Company for tools or
anything? A.— l think we allowed Mr.
Duncan to purchase some goods. ' '
Q.— Will you show me (handing the Board
records to Mr. Irwin) where it appears on
your minutes ? A. — does not appear upon
the minutes. - That was not the action of the
Board, as I know of. »tt •>•. ■■ bats
<4.— If it was not tho action of the Board,
whose action was it? A. Well, I will take
the responsibility of it upon myself.
Q.— Why did the State i make these pur
chases when the work of building the prison
was under contract to Jordan ? A. The
purchases were made so as to be ready to go
on with the work in case Jordan failed.
Q. — Did you have an idea, when you order
ed ; it, that 500 barrels of Portland cement
were necessary at once for that work ? A. —
No, sir ; not instantly ; we would need it in
the progress of the work.
0- — Did you need 100 kegs of nails then ?
A. — Not immediately, but would need them
on the work ; and the same with the 175,000
feet of lumber — would be required before
we got through. -- ' '•' • ■
0- — Did you expect Mr. Jordan, when you
ordered that he employ 150 men at once
upon the woik, would be able to comply with
it ? A. — No, sir, we did not, because he had
not been able to comply with the contract be
fore this.
Q — Did Mr. Bennett go to work in the
quarry of the Natoma Ditch Company under
direction of the Board? A. — The fact was,
we had the privilege of working there if we
could work to advantage, and a trial was
made, and the quarry did not work satisfac
torily.-
Q. — Who made such offer to you? A.— l
don't know that it was made to the Board. 1
suppose this information was conveyed to
Mr. Livermore, and not direct to the Board.
Don't funk it was ever given in any formal
manner at all to tho Board.
Q. — Did you know the excavations and
work on that ditch company's grounds were
in the direct line of the Natoma ditch canal ?
A. — I don't know as I did. ' We were work
ing about sixty men in the other quarry, and
employed about the same force in the Natoma
ditch quarry until it was found the stone was
unsatisfactory.
Q. — Have you any record to show what the
Board ordered * A. — We had contracts for
numerous articles. When things were wanted
Duncan would send down orders to the con
tractor. It was impracticable to take action
on each order separately.
(' — According to your own figuring you
have expended on cells $101,000, with what
you have paid Jordan. Now, Governor,
where is the balance of the money that was
.ed on the contract? A. — On balance of the
building. There is cell building, front build
ing, approach building, carpenter work and
plumbing. That amount is for stone cells
alone. The iron work and carpenter work
and plumbing bare been paid for to the
amount of 90 per cent.

Application fob Pardon.— Application
was made on Saturday by Senators Gor- j

sentenced to a term of seven years in the State

tion was supported by the petition of the

convicted ; also signed by several members
cf the Legislature and citizens of San Fran
cisco. Affidavits were also submitted to the
effect that Earle received his death .blow be
fore McCarthy arrived at the scene where the
crime was committed. It is also | alleged
in the affidavit that he was convicted
on the evidence of accomplices, ■ which,
McCarthy claims, was perjured testimony.
As the Governor is to visit the State Prison
within a few days, he will defer acting upon
the application until he shall make some per
sonal inquiries while there.

Washington's Birthday.— This is the
legal day for observance of the anniversary ;
of the birth of George Washington, who was j
born February 22, 1732, and died December
14, 1799, after having accomplished the in
dependence of a nation, and winning the
title "The Father of his Country." In this
city there will be a general display of bunt
ing. In the Courts only probate and police '
business will be transacted ; the county
offices will be closed, as it is by law a legal '
holiday ; the banks and the public schools !
will not be open to-day. At night the Im
proved Order of Red Men will observe the
day by a celebration at Turner Hall, when i
Creed Haymond will deliver an oration, and
there will be literary and musical exercises
and a ball in addition. Tho Board of Educa
tion will omit its meeting to-night out ot
respect to the day.
The Benicia Route. — The overland train ;
from San. Francisco Saturday morning,
which was unable to cross the marshes be
yond Suisun, backed to Port Costa and came
by way of Stockton, reaching here at 7:45 p.
M. On the same day the engine of the work
train ran off the track in the soft lands and
was rapidly sinking from sight when it was ■
pulled on to the rails. During the past few ■
days about 300 feet of track that was laid on a ,
graded bed of dirt across what is known as
the " bottomless pit " has sunk from sight, to •
what depth is not known. A large force of ;
laborers are kept employed there shifting the !
road bed almost constantly, and the trains i ;
came through yesterday, a new track having
been laid but a few feet distant from the I
route of the one that has disappeared.
Red Men's Celebration. —At Turner
Hall to-night the four Tribe 3of the Improved .
Order of Red Men in this city will, accord ,
ing to a custom of that Order, unite in a cele
bration of the recurrence of the anniversary I '
of the birth of George Washington. An ora- i (
tion will be delivered by Creed Haymond, |
and there will be a full programme of musical j
and literary exercises, which will be followed j '
by a grand ball. The Tribes have an envi- ;
able reputation for well-arranged, entertain- I ;
ing and satisfying exhibitions and celebra- | '
tions on the 22d day of February of each
year. There is reason to believe to-night's I '
celebration will equal, if not surpass, all its | j
predecessors in variety, entertaining charac- I '

San Francisco. February 22d. — The an
nouncement that Mayor Kalloch would speak
at Union Hall last night, and the tacit under
standing that he would deal with the fresh
developments of the unemployed labor move
ment, resulted in a concourse of extraordinary
numbers. By 7 o'clock, the street in front of
the building was crowded with- men and wo
men, and the two points of ingress were
packed. Unfortunately, the doors were not
opened until the pressure from the outskirts
of the mass become such that one of the doors
on the east side was forced ..pen, and the lib
erated crowd poured up that stairway. A
minute later the west doors were opened, and
the rush began at that point also. The
screams of women, helpless and crushed in
the crowd, were rather painfully distinct at
both entrances to the stairways. It was ru
mored that several women were nearly as
badly hurt as they were scared, and numbers
of the more timid did not venture in until the
jam was comparatively over. In less than a
quarter of an hour after the doors were opened
the galleries and the main Boor were abso
lutely packed, and many of the late arrivals
were not able to gain entrance to the hall at
all. At the close of the meeting the crowd
ing and pressure were such on the stairway
leading from the cast gallery that the wooden
balusters cracked and swayed, and a score of
people barely escaped being precipitated to
the floor. The meeting was entirely enthu
siastic during the Mayor's speech." His ap
pearance was the signal for prolonged cheer
ing ; and after some preliminary singing, he
began his address, in which he presented in a
vigorous manner his position in regard to the
affairs of the municipality.
San Francisco's Chinatown Declared .1
Nuisance by Ihe Board of Health.
San Francisco, February 22d.— The Board
of Health held a special meeting yesterday
morning. After reading the report of the
committee, consisting of Mayor I. S. Kalloch,
Dr. Henry S. Gibbons, Jr., and Health Offi
cer J. L. Meares, which was appointed on
the 2d instant to investigate the condition of
Chinatown, and recommend to the Board
what measures should be taken for the pres
ervation of the city's health, it was adopted
by a unanimous vote. The report condemns
the twelve blocks occupied by the Chinese as
a nuisance. S
The assessed valuation of personal property
of Chinese living in San Francisco was a total
of §740,120, upon which the taxes were 813,
--965, Although the number of Chinamen
owning real estate i 3 not very large, each of
those who are assessed is assessed for a great
many pieces. Li Po Tai, the Chinese physi
cian, is a very large property-owner, and is
assessed for a great many pieces. - Other
wealthy Chinamen, whose names are less fa
miliar, . except to the Chinese themselves,
than that of the physician,' are also assessed
for a great many pieces of real estate. Of
the wealthiest of these are Ah Yeck and Ly
Heunz. ": '. ' '. . . ; ."-"J" ;■
"The last Peaceable Parade"— Ketten,
'. th* Pianist, Injured.
San Francisco, February \ 22d.— " The
last peaceable parade of. the unemployed,"
announced on Friday, came off yesterday
afternoon. ,' Marching along Market street,
from the sand lot, the procession turned into
Eighth street and headed for : the San Fran
cisco Candle Works, on Alabama street.. The
visit was devoid of any satisfactory results.
Some of the paraders,- who felt restless at
the long absence of the committee at the fact
ory office, started out to hunt for Chinamen
in the neighborhood. They broke in the door
of a bone and bottle yard, aud finding no one
there, destroyed all "that was destructible in
the house. ■■ The reason for the perpetration
of this outrage was that a Chinaman was re
ported to have been employed as a rag-sorter.
The procession then marched down town by '
way of Mission street. When they passed
the washhouse of Hop Lee, No. 049 Mission
street, an attack was made upon the estab
lishment with brickbats and cobblestones,
and when the last peaceable procession had
finally passed, the heathen's washhouse had
neither sashes nor window panes. • Several
firms were interviewed by the committee dur
ing the afternoon, but the results were not
favorable to their demands.' In returning to
the sand lot the paraders principally amused
themselves with stealing fruit from various
stands along the route of .the march. - Gan
non, the Chairman, reported the day's labors
and adjourned the crowd, with the injunc
tion to be present at the Union Hall meeting
at night. -A,'-''-f -<-v-i "i .';.>:? -'",-•"' . ,
