Refreshments, games and music assisted to pass away a pleasant evening. On the leach last Sunday au esthete young lady murmured thusly to our society sharp: "Now, I do wonder why they gave eucb a da cidedly, amazingly, utterly horrid name aa the "Bony-party" to the club which gave such au awfully nice party last Friday evening. It actually makes me shiver to pronounce it.

It has sucb a suggestion of a bone-yard, and when the town clock struck the hour of twelve I actually felt and thought of that passage to Hamlet, in which some one aaya, 'tis the hour of midnight when grave-yards yawn ugh 1' aud I really thought I should see a procession of skeletons actually marching In and dancing a bat, and then would change it foi a cap. This was intended for disuuise. The firm have abandoned their private detective agency. Maxwell will be surprised that the celebrated Santa Cruz detectives were watching for him and he 4,000 miles away. The exploits of Thomas Jenkins In the above affair has kept the town In a constant roar of laughter since It was given publicity, and it is tbe most suc cessful joke ever perpetrated In ibis city.

The instructions given by Gaffey were: "If any of the other detectives come airing (there a ro about seventeen of them) you say 'the moon shines and they must answer, 'it shines very brightly. Jenkins met a man on the bridge and aaid: "Tne moon shines brightly." and the man said, "Let in 1 is crawling 011 yon, you fool?" Jenkins let him pass. If a man an swering the description of Maxwell came along the detective was to aay: "Are you Ed Maxwell?" Maxwell would am." Jenkins would then order him to throw up his bands, draw his knife on bim, slip a pair of handcuffs on him and convey him to Mitchell's saloon. "Supposing he'll shoot; I want you to stay wltb me for awhile, altuough 1 am not afraid auwl lank ni tlatTov 1 1 a sured Maxwell would not shoot, and would go along peaceably, go along peaceably. It was the Intention also to place the two detec tives In the bank watching the vault for weeks, In anticipation of an attack by Maxwell.

It Is said Jenkins and Thomas are watching for. the appearance of Jacobus Dlrebus, who was lost in Holland about five hundred years ago, and for whom a large re ward was offered. A Protest. Most of newspapers commenting on the medical treatment of President Garfield take occasion to cast a stone at the medical profession in a sort of general way, intimating that it Is too much given to pretense. Now if the conduct of the President's case must be laken as a fair example, we must admit the charge of quackery.

But the fact Is, the great body of the mail, ical profession, the workers and the doers, not the talkers and pretenders, do not consider this case a fair exam, pie. It is generally understood aud admitted that Dr. Bilss, who clung to the President like a barnacle to a great ship, Is not a type of the scientific physician. He is one of tbe talking kind. And ever since his "Cuuduraugo" speculation In 1871, the profession has regarded him with suspicion, and esteemed bhn as a charlatan.

His conduct during the long course of Garfield's sickness has only eon fl rmed these Impressions. Yet he held the place as attending physician had secured the confidence, as he asserts, of Mrs. Gar field aud the President, and who could or wished to step Into his place Although In all probability the President's wound was a mortal one, yet there has never been a case, it seems to us, iu modern times In which there was so much pretense md audi a small amount of knowledge exercised as In this one. Aud all that great pretense and all that Utile knowledge which brings reproach to the medical profession, unjustly we think, Is due to one who does not deserve a place among the eminent of that profession. Of course such men as Agnew and Hamilton have suffered In reputation by allowing themselves to associate in consults, tion with such a character as bad unfortunately been chosen lo attend tbe President.

And through them the profession at large has become liable to unfavorable comments. This wo hold to be undeserving. The facts should be understood. Because President Garfield, or his family, or friends, have chosen to submit lo charlatanry, there Is no good reason why the medical profession ut large should bo accused of incompetency and tin warranted pretense. Medicus, Larve Months are fashionable.

ii The fashion papers, which are authority on tbe styles, claim that ladies with large mouths are all the fashion now, aud that those whose mouths are small and rosebud-like are all out of style. It Is singular the freaks are taken by fashiou. Years ago a red-headed girl, wltb a mouth like a slice cut out of a muskmelon, would have beeii laughed at, and now such a girl is worth going miles to see. It is easier to color the bair red, and be in tbo fashion, than it Is to enlarge the mouth, though a mouth that has any give to it may be helped by the constant application of a glove-stretcher durlug the day, and by holding the cover to a tiu blacking-box In tbe mouth while steeping. What in the world the leaders of fash, ion wanted to declare large mouths the style for, the heavens duly can tell.

Take a pretty face and mortise out about a third of the front of It for a mouth, aud It seems to us as though it is a great waste of the raw material. There is no use that a large mouth can be put to that a small mouth can do uo bet. ter, unless it is used for a pigeon-bide to file away old seta of small teeth. They can't, certainly, be any belter for kissing. You all remember the traveling man who attended the church fair at Kalamazoo, where one of the sisters would give a kiss for leu cents.

He went up aud paid his teu vents, and was about tu kiss he noticed that her mouth was one of those cylinder escapement, to-be-continued mouths. commenced at the chin ami went about four chains aud threo links tu a northwesterly direction, then around by the ear, across under the nose and back by the other ear to the place of beginning, and coulaiued about twelve acres, more or less. The traveling mau said that he was only a poor orphan, aud bad a family to aupport, and If he never came out alive it would be a great hardship to those dependent ou him for support, and he asked ber as a special favor that she lake tier band, and lake a reef In one side of the mouth so it would be smaller. She puckered iu a haudful of what would have been cheek, bad it not been iiioulh. He looked at her again, and found thai the mouth bad become a very one-sided affair, and be said he bad just one more favor to ask.

He was not a mau that was counted bard to suit, wheu be was at boine iu he would always feel that be had got his money's worth and go away witb pleasanter recollections or Kalamazoo, if she would kindly take ber other band and take the other aide of ber mouth together, and he would be content to take his ten cents worth out of what was unem ployed. This was too much, aud she gave him a terrible look, aud re. turned him bis ten cents, say ing; you think, sir, because you are a Chicago drummer, that for ten cents you can take a kiss right out of tlie best part of it Go! Get thee to a nuuuery," and be went and bought lemonade wltb tbe money! Uss Lettrs Remaining In tbe Postofflce Ctui, Oct. 15, 1881: Adnms, Miss Hattle Rnye, Chas Chirk. id hu L.

L. B. Jenkins is well known as an unusually promising member of the bar, legal bar, and bis voice has been often board In our justices1 courts de.

manding justice, "aye, liberty, gentlemen of the Jury," for junk dealers aud other unfortunate gentlemen(T) who bad abused their wives. Per. suasfve powers of eloquence and legal knowledge were required to convince a jury of their Innocence; and luvariably L. B. Jenkins was their advocate, and to bis possession of the above important qualities for a sue oessful lawyer his clients have some times boon acquitted.

Latterly the young man, with a desire to gaiu re nown In tbe detective world, has studied tbe exploits of Allan Finkerton, the celebrated American detective, aud Vidocq, the great French detective, besides making a study of the Police Gazette aud other staudard works, where crime la Illustrated aud described. Thomas, the Junior member and confidential adviser of the firm, is a painter by trade, and has also occupied the distinguished position of general utility mail for his Honor, Judge Logan, and has been a hard atudeut, after wasting the mld- uight candles In studying the adventures of certain heroes portrayed In dime novels. Business being dull these two amateurs, seeiug In the pap. era the large reward of $00,000 offered for the James boys, noted train rob bers, thought before venturing ou the capture of the James boys and other bank and train robbers that they would commence on a small scale to get their hands in, as It were. About four years ago a murder was committed by a man named Maxwell, In Wisconsin, and a reward of $1,800 was offered by the Governor of Wisconsin for his capture.

Deputy Sheriff alley had one of these cards wltb the reward 011, and changed the date to July 10, 1881, aud showed it to detective Jen. kins, after pulling down the blinds of the window, locking the door, and making him swear never to divulge the secret, Tbe latter looked at the reward, but did not stop to read the date, so great was bis hurry to communicate it to his partner, Thomas. Gaffey further told him that the man was In town and wore light pants and a black goalee. This was fust the tiling they wanted. They watched every man with a black goatee iu.

quired at all the saloons for an indi vidual of the above description, aud were told, "He just left here a minute ago." They followed men who wore light pants all over town, and men with black goatees were shadowed to tbe outskirts of the city. While Jon-kins went to supper Thomas watched In town. Their movements caused considerable laughter to a number who wore aware of the joke. The pair were enthusiastic over the cap ture, and Gaffey, who Is au inveterate joker, to give the Ann a chance to dis Unguis) themselves, told detective Jeiiklns to guard tbo upper bridge ud detective Thomas to watch tbe lower bridge. Tney were told that other men were watching on the other side ir the bridge.

Accordingly tbe young Judge procured a butcher- knife, tack hammer and revolver, and also put a few large rocks in the pock ets of bis later, ho that in case the robber threw him over the bridge tie would weigh so much more. Oh, no; ne wasn't afraid at ail, but per haps Maxwell would come at the head of a large baud of robbers, and be wisely concluded tu be prepared. Thomas carried a huge blunderbuss, which was so large that 11 wore a hole in his pockot. Everybody who came on tbe bridge Jenkins would stop, ask them their business, and invite them to move on. Several ludiguaut, prominent citizens, threatened to In.

diet punishment ou the detective. Hia ulstei collar was buttoned over bis mouth, as tho evening was very cold, and the tones issuing therefrom seemed muffled, and when he said "halt 1 it sounded aa if a distant breaker bad struck against a huge rock aud was reverberating back again through a telephone. Jenkins had practiced this expression so much that he had it down to a first point, and if he could keep up the same tone of voice in defending a criminal before a jury, be might iudeed send bim to the halt er. No wonder, then, that sun dry late citizens going homewards over the bridge should become fright ened- at first by the muffled tones, and indeed if Maxwell were ordered to "halt," in that tone of voice, be would have done so, perhaps, and told tbe young man to lure himself out for fog whistle. It couldn't be thought that detective Jenkins would run away, as he is well know for his bravery.

Detective Thomas would walk behind every one who passed over his boundary, aud by the aid of the light on the bridge, peer in their faces, and satisfied that they were not lie one he wanted, turn back and resume his postagaiu. Every rustle of the leaves I nomas construed into robber, and had his blunderbuss ready for action. Al 11:45 the young Judge, after examining the surroundings of the bridge carefully and seeing no one there, went to see how his brother detective was gettiug alou He found Thomas pacing up aud down the bridge, and as Jenkins approached he lifted a warning finger, and mo tioned bim to come nearer. He whispered hi Jenklu's ear that some one was in the building at this end of the bridge, and to keep quiet. Thomas cocked bis revolver, iu a match, and looked through a crevice In tbe door.

After listening intently for a while and burning several nutches in their endeavor to find Maxwell without success It being then 12 o'clock, they left to report at headquarters. They apieared at that hour at Galley's room in the Ocean House. Thomas knocked. Gaffeysays, "Who's Thomas answered, "Thomas." Gaffey then invited bim to go to a certain warm place not mentioned In the geography for thus disturbing bis sleep. "Keport again at two o'clock," said Gaffey, as he went to sleep, As the other guards did not appear they began to realize that they were "sold." The midnight air was full of brimstone caused by the forcible Ian- guage used to express their feelings.

They Intend to present a bill to the supervisors for services. The Jokers had intended to have a man answer Ing the description come across the bridge aud have Jenkins arrest him, take bim to jail and pretend to wake up Jailor Sylvar. While waiting for Sylvar the supposed prisoner was to fire a pistol loaded with blank cartridges at Jenkins, while another threw a piece of liver at the detective's shirt, pretend It was blood and take off his garment and hunt for the wound. This would have been done, but Galley went to bed, and the plain weie not carried nut. At nine o'clock Thomas kuocked violently at a house where be used to live aud woke up the inmates.

The gentleman asked what be wauled, and he replied, "I want your six-shooter." Ha was questioned what he wanted It for, and tlually divulged tbe secret tsay4ngt "If Gaffey knew I told this he would kill me, as I swore 1 would never tell it." On leaving be said, "Hero it is a quarter past nine and I promised to met Gaffey at nine, so I must hurry up, as I have vory Important business to at-tend to." He was given the old blunderbuss referred to. Tho folks were informed by bim that be was a private dewotive. Jenkins changed bla HATl K1A. OCTOHEH IS, IHHt. Actnal Circalation To-day, 1,272.

A short time since an article appeared In the columns of this paper, being a synopsis of a lecture delivered by a prominent woman before a well-known New England Hoclety.

This article dealt so di rectly wltb the needs of women, and contained so many hints which were valuable, that It naturally attracted no little attention, and has, we learn, been a subject of comment In social circles In near ly every part of the land. Realising that no subject can be of mora vital Import ance, as well a. Interest to all readers, than the condition of tbe women of America, we have collected and prepared with considerable care, additional facts bearing upon the same subject.

Hhe might have added, that even her far-famed French nation would And it difficult to equal, much less excel, American women In quickness of perception and brilliancy of Intellect The minds and manners of American women were all that csn be desired; but It Is a lamentable fact that their physical frames are far Inferior In comparison with their social and mental characteristics.

Tbs women of England are noted for tbelr florid health; those of Germany for their strong constitutions, and the ladles of France for tbelr exuberance of spirits; but American women possess not one of these qualities In any prominence, and all of them only In a slight degree. The reason for this must be plain to every careful observer. Bedentary ways, devotion to fashion but above all and more thsn all, carelessness and Indifference to dally habits and duties, have rendered the women of this land far less strong and healthy than It Is either their duly or privilege to be. This Irregular and indif ferent manner of living brings about the most serious results and Is both directly and Indirectly of untold Injury to the race. The cause, therefore, being mani festly ender the control of tbe women themselves, the power to remove It must naturally be under their control also, American women can possess Just as oil armed lives aa though they lived In Europe or any foreign land, If they only desire and determine to do io.

Tho primary cause of suffering from disease Is Impure blood. The perform ance of the natural functions of woman' hood and motherhood Is not a disease, nor should It be treated as such, and to maintain one's health the organs which make and purify the blood must be pre served In, or restored to, their normal condition. These organs are the kidneys and liver. It is the office of the kidneys to take from the blood the poisonous matter which bas been collected from all parts of the body and pass It off from the sys tem. If they are Impaired In tbelr action they can not do this work, the poison ac cumulates, all the organs In the body which are sustained by the blood ai weakened and give way, and Anally the kidneys and contiguous organs become the source of great pain, and without prompt relief death Is certain.

It Is the office of the liver to extract other impurities from the blood and util Ize a portion of them for digestion. If the liver Is disordered all forms of dyspepsia occur, the bowels can not expel the waste matter and the roost distressing I noon venlenees follow. This Is especially true tn the case of women. And If tbe bowels are thus Inactive and overloaded the neighboring organs, which are particu larly dependent for their right action upon the state of the liver, bowels and kidneys, become displaced, and the con sequences which ensue are too well known to require restatement In a sug gestive article of this kind. The secret, however, of preventing these manifold disorders Is to keep tbe kidneys and liver tu perfect working condition.

This Is reason, this science, and It appeals with force to the suffering women of America. When the body is In a healthy condi tion then come beauty of complexion, elasticity of step, hopefulness of disposition and comfort and happiness in tbe duties and responsibilities of a family. There hi, therefore, every Incentive to se cure and preserve buoyant health. Warner's Safe Kidney and UwrCure, the remedy described in tbe lecture to which reference bas already been made. as Itoertaluly merits tbe most careful at tentlon and the trial of the women of tbe land.

It Is a pure and simple vegetable remedy which Is now doing more to bring health and strength to tbe Ameri can women than anyone thing which bas ever been discovered, Xt acts directly upon the liver, kidneys and adjacent organs, soothes any Inflammation, allays all pain und places those organs la a con dition to bring health to the body and happiness to the life. The manufacturers of this great remedy, as we leurn from the lecture, have the written thanks of thou sands of women many of them of great promtnenoo but these letters are very properly regarded as loo sacred for publl cation. No true woman Is pleased to have ber physical troubles flaunted In the eyes of the world. The unquestionable value of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure Ii all the more manifest from the fact that heretofore no adequate remedy for the ills of women bas ever been discovered; nor have tbe medical profession ever been able to assist woman lo ber troubles as she deserves. This Is, perhaps, largely due to tbe presence of so much bigotry and Intolerance In that profession.

The history of medicine ts a history which Il lustrates to the fullest the blighting effect of bigotry and Intolerance. Harvey, wbo discovered the circulation of the blood, was driven out of England. Jenner, the father of vaccination, was oppressed and scoffed at. Thompson, the founder of the Thompsoulan theory, was tbe victim of a hateful conspiracy. Morton, In cbusetta, who Introduced tbe use of ether In surgical operations, was charged with witchcraft, and yet tbe discoveries or these men are to-day recognised as of In finite benefit to tba race.

It la the solemn duty of every physician In tbs land to take advantage of every opportunity which la within bla reach; not to promote the lute reals of this or that school, but to heal the people of their In firmities, All havo witnessed death-bed scenes and felt that If sktl I were equal to disease death might have been postponed many years ago that science (If use were made of all tbe agencies abe haa revealed) was equal to a curs. How many a time In the experience of all baa tills been illustrated! A cold Is contracted. It refuses to yield to a fixed form of treutmenl, the physician may not be candid enough to call In the aid of other schools. or of Independent asencli and tbe dar one dies because the doctor will not exhaust every exiMHitent known to tbe world for relief! If he have the eourxiceof his own couvlctlons and em pioyif, outside agendo he Is vintled witb expulsion from the society r.f his fellows, and, forsooth, becomes what they choose io can a "quaes." nen tuey uavo hum ted all the agencies appjruvMl hy their schools they 'hlrk tho responsibil ity" or me aetunof uitur puiiem oy au vifclntr a trip to Colorado or Florida or I voyage to Kuropet Much treatment may be lu neourdaiice with ihe ''code of ethics," but In tbe view of the unprejudiced public It Is downright cruelty, if It may imt beeves more strongly characterized. There Is no reason, however.

Commissioners have been appoint ed by tbe Supervisors of Sau Mateo county to appraise the value of the toll road extending from Half Moon Bay across the mountains to the town of San Mateo, a distance of thirteen miles.

The young lady from Soquel, said softly; "Because there were so many bud ding mi' lis In attendance." "I think It was because ko many tendor vines hung on the bony-parts for aupport during the grand march," gently re marked the funny man who room on Locust St. The company couldn't as It were, to bis meaning, "Well," said he, "most of the young men who were there are not used to bard work, and consequently arn't their arms which the ladles clung to as they marched around, more bone than muscle." The company "caught on" to the meaning. "Now, as It could not have been that there were so many wall-flowers present, because there were none there at all, is too utter ly recondite tor my comprehension," lisped the nervous young lady. It having gone tho rounds the funny man who promenades on Walnut said, "You are all wrong; tbe reason why the hall looked like a flower gar. den, was because there were so many daisies and tule-roses present." They all said, "Why didn't we think of that; that's awfully certainly must give that to tbe sentinel man." The street car bell ringing to start Just then scattered the company, thus putting an end to their Intellectual amusement.
