DAILY HERALD. TUESDAY, -JUNE 20, 1882. SinsTle Copies of the Herald, 5 Cents. Sunday Laws. Queer questions ander the Sunday Laws of the several States continue to arise.

In all cases the statute provides that if the work be of "charity or necessity" it is lawful. Courts of last resort have been called upon to decide, to the great perplexity of judges, whether such pursuits as baking bread, going to a picnic, and attending a funeral, are or are not infractions of the law. In Indiana it lias been held twice within as many years that selling cigars on Sunday was not a violation of the law. In Pennsylvania recently a maiden of forty summers brought an action for breach of promise of marriage against a youth ef fifty. The engagement had been entered into on Sunday, and the gentleman stood upon the Sunday law, pleading that wooing of a Sunday was neither charitable nor necessary.

The promise Was held to be binding because since that eventful Sunday it had been recognized as such by both parties. The lawfulness of this kind of Sunday work, therefore, is still a matter of doubt in Pennsylvania, and in that State youths of mature age who attend evening service in order to go home with the girls are still in jeopardy. In the Indiana decision referred to the court held that, to one who has formed a habit of smoking, cigars are necessity, just as tea, or coffee, is to others. By a parity of reasoning, then, why is it not equally lawful to tell liquor on Sunday? If a man do not like tea, or coffee, or cigars, but do like some other kind of stimulant, necessity to him though not to others, why should he be deprived of "cakes and ale?" It is well to remember, however, that in some matters, such as divorce and the Sunday law, the decisions of the bunals of Indiaua do not inspire unbounded respect, and it is not probable that the train of reasoning which we have ventured to hint at will suggest itself to any one, judge or layman, outside of that commonwealth. In some of the Eastern States the course of legislation seems to be backward in regard to Sunday and other sumptuary laws.

The new criminal code of New York, to which reference has been made already La this paper, is very suggestive of the olden time enactments of the colonies of New England. 'By it all theatrical performances on Sunday are prohibited, as well as all processions save military funerals, and, in the latter case, no baud is to play within the distance of one block of any church where religious services are being held. This code contains various other provisions of a like nature; and, if they, or one-tenth part of them, be enforced to the letter, one-half of the population of the metropolis will spend its time in penal servitude, and the city itself in moral sense will be unrecognizable. Patriotic Gifts. Dr.

Toner, an eminent physician of Washington, is also the owner of one of the best libraries of medical books in the world. These books he proposes to give to the nation, with the proviso that the collection shall bo put in the Congressional library, and kept separately under the name of the "Toner Library." To this proposition the New York Ihrahl objects, on the ground that the best place for a medical library is a medical centre, and that New York is a medical centre while Washington is not. According to this peculiar process of reasoning the late Mr. Ticknor wa3 in the wrong when by will he left his unique collection to a public school at Boston, for the greater part of the books treated of the literatnre of Spain, and their proper place is in that country. Now it is tit and proper that a man desiring to make such a donation should think first of the city which has been his residence for years, and in which he has accumulated the means of purchasing that which he gives; and it is doubly fitting and proper when that city is the capital of the nation.

To say nothing of the necessity of endenvoring to impart some kind of knowledge to the average Congressman, it should be the wish of every patriotic citizen that the already great library at Washington should become the peer of those in Europe. Although, unless by some extraordinary accident, the like of which is not likely to occur, our government should become possessed of the great public collections of European nations, we can never hope to rival them in the matter of manuscripts, aud such books as are now unique, at the same time these can be reproduced by the various processes now in use, so that at Washington the bookman would enjoy the same advantages he now does at Paris, or London, or Oxford, or any other place where a great library exists. At the time of his death the late Caleb Cushing was possessed of a valuable collection of books which that delver into all kinds of knowledge had amassed during a long life. Mr. Cushing was a man of ample fortune, and left no immediate heirs; yet he did not by will dispose of his books, nnd they were scattered to the four winds.

Under such circumstances the patriotic American should bequeath his treasures to some public library for the use and behoof of coming generations of his countrymen. Census Statistics. Census Bulletin No. '283, containing the statistics of livo-stock on farms, on the Ist of June, 1880, has just issued. In all classes of like-stock, except working oxen, which have decreased per centum, the rate of increase has been very considerably greater than that of the population.

California ranks next to Ohio as a wool-growing State, having five million head to four million in the Utter State, and the increase has been of fifty per centum, greater than Is that of any other kind of stock except mules and asses, that rate being sixtytwo per centum. The increase in milch cows has been twenty ei.ht per centum, but in other kinds of cattle there has been a decrease of two per centum. In horses the increase has been one of twenty-four par centum, and in swine one of thirty-six. The population has increased at the rate of fifty-four per centum. SltrCl IS.VJ Mr.

Robert Bon iicr. oi New York, has purchased, for breeding purposes, thirty-eight of the fastest trotters ever brought before the public. These horses have cost, in the aggregate, rather more than three hundred and eighty thousand dollars. All of them have trotted their mile in less than two minutes and a half, while the scores made by Rarus, Dexter and others, are too well known to need re-publication. Mr.

Bonner was censured at first for his invariable practice of withdraw ing the horses bought by him from the turf, but it is now well known that the improvement which of late years has taken place in the breed of trotting horses is due to bun more than to any other one man. It will be interesting to our breeders of horses to know that nearly one-half of Mr. Bonner's peerless stud is from sires of Hanihletonian blood, while one-quarter of it is composed of descendants of Mambrino Chief. These great trotting families have given to the world the best trotters we possess. One of the old Great jobs has been quietly brought to life again.

A hydrographic expedition under Commander W. R. Bridgman was sent out ill the steamship Despatch last December, for the purpose of making a survey of the Gulf of and has just returned to Washington. It will be asserted, of course, that the expedition was sent out for the purpose of increasing our geographical knowledge, but uo one, except a few quasi-savage negroes, lives on the shores of that gulf, uor is it likely that they will be inhabited for ears to come, while there are many other ports in the West Indies of far more prospective importance to American commerce about which nothing at all is known. Presently there will be a bill introduced for the purchase of the Gulf of Saniana, and that will take a big slice out of the unappropriated millions said to exist in the treasury of the United States.

It seems to be the fashion of the day for condemned murderers to publish books, each telling the world all about the deed for the commission of which he has been convicted, and his reasons for not agreeing wish the jury in the view taken of the matter. One Kring, who is about to be hanged in St. Louis for the murder of his sweetheart, has been engaged in writing letters to the daily papers of that city, and has produced a work called "Love and Law," which will soon be published. A murderer condemned to death should lose all his civil rights as effectually as though he had boen hanged already. The Guiteaus and Krings after condemnation should be prevented by law from continuing to force themselves upon the attention of the public in the manner which is permitted.

Kring is the man who has had so many trials, and who kBOWS more law thau his law yers do. He is a sort of Western Ruloff, In making up the tariff commission Mr. Arthur lias, so far, failed to put the name of a single agriculturi.it in the list. This shows very clearly what Mr. Arthur's beliefs and tendencies are.

Agriculturists, as well as other producers, should have a voice in a matter so important to all, and that great class, the consumers, should also not go unrepresented. I.N the cities to the eastward of tho mountains cable roads da not seem to be successful. For some reason the cars on the road which was built at Chicago have killed or mangled several people. The Chicago press has taken the matter up, and the system meets with a good deal of opposition. The building of elevated roads in their stead is advocated.

Roreson will make expenses after all. The naval appropriation bill is for fifteen millions of dollars, and there are several other bills for building and repairing vessels which amount to nearly as much more. Sound Advice. The New Orleans Commercial Bulletin advises its business men to cultivate the trade with California. It says: "It is generally conceded that New Orleans will, in a short time, control the greater portion of the South and Central American trade with the United States, at the same time we must not forget one equally important, to-wit, that of California.

There is no country iv the world, that can compare with this State in her many and varied productions, the only obstacle to the success of her people being the heavy cost of transportation. We believe the managers of the Southern Pacific Railroad are inclined to meet the California shippers half way, and if they do may we not predict that our city will become a large distributing point for her fruits, wines and cereals The already immense acreage in grape vines is increasing every season, thore being over five millions of new ones planted in the vicinity of Los Angeles alone during the present year. Besides grapes we also note that in the southern portion of the State, large orchards of superior varieties of oranges, lemous and olives, have been planted, a portion of which will doubtless be shipped to New Orleaus, as they ripen at a season when our Louisiana crop is exhausted. These with many other productions equally important, should afford sufficient inducements for our merchants to cultivate friendly relations with California shippers at as early a date as possible."

The tugs Wizard and Rescue have gone out. Meanwhile it is impossible to account for the catastrophe as the weather was fair and thei wind aud sea moderate. The only theory at present assignable is that the quantity of coal carried on deck rendered the ship top-heavy. Further of the tat earner IMwnHtcr.

Francisco, June 19. The pilot who took out the steamer Escambin says that the water ballast tanks had all been pumped ont to render the ship lighter for carriage of cargo, and that coal was stored on deck as high us the bridge. While going down the harbor the machinery was stopped for a lew moments and the ship, falling off into the trough of the sea, rolled the scuppers under. The pilot expressed the opinion that she was unsafe, and believes that the catastrophe might have been expected in open water. The disaster was seen from the signal station, but it is impossible to say whether anyone was saved.

The ship's complement consisted of about twenty-live men all told. She was loaded by Dresback and it is believed her cargo was fully insured. The Kscambia was about tons sad came here from I long Kong, via Victoria. B. with Chinese passengers.

W.J. Ross, with a command of fifty rangers, which left here two months ago, has returned. The rangers trailed the remnant of the renegade Apaches '200 miles from the Arizona line down into Chihuahua, Mexico. They counted nearly 300 dead Indians, many of whom were found near the mountain trail. They hail evidently been wounded in the tight with the Mexican troops under Geo.

Garcia and tied for safety. The body of Chief Loco was identified by one of the party who had known him intimately for six years. On the first they fell in with the Mexican troops, under Gen. Reyes, and were arrested, disarmed and after four days ordered to get out of Mexican territory. Gen.

Reyes informed Ross that, Inasmuch as he had authority as a Deputy Sheriff from Arizona, the lives of himself and men would be spared, but he must go back unarmed. Boss demanded a voucher for the arms of his rangers, which was at first refused but afterwards granted. Gen, Reyes stated that he hud sent Col. Forsythe formal warning that any body of armed men found on Mexican soil would lie shot, but he should make an exception in this case. The rangers were compelled to return through an Indian country 280 miles without a single weapon for sslf-defense.

Gen. Reyes admitted that he was well aw are that the rangers meant no harm or wrong to the Mexicans, but were after hostile Indians and declared that it was a violation of international law which he would not tolerate. More TcCSON, June from Chihuahua City state that the Mexican troops had another fight with the Indians at KnciniHos, in which fifteen Indians were killed and twenty prisoners taken; also, live Mexicans killed. The report of the killing of chief Sancho and the son of Juh has been confirmed. EASTERN.

Lazarus's JelDtd The double-dealers having lost trade to an alarming extent by reason of our opposition to their nefarious ring, have lately adopted new but unsuccessful tricks to deiudo and ensnare an unsuspecting public. TRICK iVO. ft. The double dealers will send to the Store to ascertain the prices of calico and mnslins, after which they will not hesitate to sell these special lines far below cost to any one who happens to know or mention the Peopie's Store'a prices, dust mention the name, "Peoples Store," and you will behold abject fear depicted on their countenances, ami with what eloquence they try and persuade you that One-Price is a humbug and Plain Figures a myth. TRICIC 2.

Another sharp trick is now in vogue among shoe dealers who pretend to have, but do not keep, a proper assortment of sizes in ladies'shoes, A lady customer asks for a certain French kid shoo for 93. The shoe man, knowing" he is out of sizes, and having nothing mutable, leads tho customer to believe that he has made arrangements by which he can have tho shoes made to order for the same price, or a dollar more, and so delays the lady's shoes seven or eight days. The truth is, he orders the ready-made shoes for stock, and when the lady calls to receive her made to-order shoe receives a pair from the goods in stock. TRICK iVO. 3.

A Well-known dealer retorted to the following trick: The People's Store have a few pieces of all-linen crash which sells at five cents a yard, or '20 yards for one dollar- -an article worth considerable more money. Young boys were employed to buy up this crash by the dollar's worth, after which it was displayed for sale in '20-yard pieces for $1 at the tricky dealer's store. A countryman, evidently a stranger, had heard of the honorable manner of transacting business at the People's Store, and was in search of the place. Happening to enter a clothing store he inquired, "Is this the People's Store?" "Why, yes, sir -the very place," answered the double-dealer gleefully. Calico, muslin and ladies' shoes were inquired for, but he was "just out;" "such a run of trade that it was impossible to keep the goods on hand." The double-dealer managed to sell the countryman a few shirts, for the pains of lying and misrepresenting, after which he called at tho People's Store and learned of the picable trick practiced upon him.

These tricks we are compelled to expose to the public gaze, because they are intended to work against and impede the progress of the People's Store towards public favor. Hut the public will not countenance them, for any thinking person knows that honesty cannot be expected where deception is the start.
