RUSSIAN JAILS.
Thn Investigations Mnilo by n Ro-
fonuixtory Official--His Fnto <
From New York Tribune.
A mnn with a conscicnco has ami
donly emerged from tlio Russian civil
service. This is I'nvel Uinvixnski , mi
imperial state nttornoy , who has recently
contly been commissioned by tlio
Government to make a special ilives
tigatioa of tlio judicial and lulminia-
trativo abuses in Orenburg. An ac
count of his experience during tlio
four months which his mission occu <
pied lias been published in tlio Sjovor-
ny Viestnik , and translated by the
Telegraph of London. It is a ghastly
record of misgovernment , heartlessness -
ness , tyranny nnd barbarity.
The Commissioner describes him
self as living in "an almosphoro of
appalling tjroaus and heartrending
sighs. " llo liberated innocent cap
tives who had been secretly tortured
and closely confined for years after
they had been publicly acquitted in
open court , llo received the sworn
statements of peasant women whoso
jlcsh had been pinched by red-hot
irons as a punishment for their pre
sumption in pleading for their hus
bands lives. Ho visited the State
prisons , whcro hundreds of prisoners
draped in rotten rags are condemned
to lingering death without ever beini ;
allowed to know what has boon laid
to their charge or who has accused
them of wrong The roofs of these
charnel-houses wherein' they grovel
are ready to fall in upon them at any
moment , the walls are lined with
damp and clammy fungus , and the air
in thcsp loathsome dens is so rank
and fetid from "tho dirt of ages" and
"exhalations from every sort of abom
ination" as absolutely to stop the
visitor's breath. Ho learned that
absent-minded prisoners , who used
the familiar form of "Thou" in place
" * of "You" in addressing the oflicials
- * in charge of their dungeons , were
tied to a horse's tail and iloirged with
thornoy rods steeped in salt wjxter ,
receiving sometimes as many as 125
blows. Ho found in the infirmaries
the majority of the patients stretched
upon the bare boards and often
among the dead bodies of their com
panions. "So was it revealed to me , "
says the Commissioner , "how our
Judges trample the laws under foot ,
how cynical and wanton is the be-
havour of our police ; how savagely
brute force is brought to bear upon
the weak and friendless. "
Tlio most schocking disclosures
which the Commissioner makes , re
late to the town jail of Ilzek , not far
from Orenburg. All the prisoners
had been led out on ono occasion to a
public square , and , not so much
beaten as "half hammered to death , "
so that the populace "wept bitterly
and crossed themselves in utter con
sternation. " As the details of this
horrible outrage are recited , they
wcro first flogged until they fainted ;
next they were soused with buckets
of water until they regained con
sciousness , and then knocked about
with prison keys , iron chains and
riilo stocks ; and finally , they were all
tied together by the feet and driven
into the prison yard , "whore they fell
from sheer exhaustion in bleeding and
disfigured heaps. " The governor of
this jail , who had ordered this pun
ishment to bo inflicted upon all the
prisoners , without exception , and
solely for his own amusement , was
once a commissary of police and had
been dismissed from the service for
shameless corruption ; yet ho had
retained sufficient influence in high
quarters to secure another and more
responsible post , where ho could
satisfy the bestial instincts of his
nature and wreak his savage ven
geance upon the helpless fellow
creatures committed to his charge.
The man with a conscience , who
used his eyes to such good purpose ,
was not allowed to pursue his inves
tigations longer than four months.
Ho met with resistance from bench ,
bureau and military headquarters.
Ho did not attempt to accomplish
very much. Ho only aimed to give
the wretched captives a little moro air
and a little light , and protect them
from torture andinhumanpunishmont. [
Yet ho was dismissed from the public
service as one of the secret allies of
the Nihilists , and the newspaper
which published his painful narrative
was suspended indefinitely.
The Now Minister to Spain-
UtlcaN. Y)0bscner. )
No charitable person will begrudge
Hannibal Hamlin the happiness of
living four years of absolute leisure in
Madrid , upon a salary of 812,000 per
annum , as minister to Spain. Indeed ,
ho will bo moro of a representative of
the American politician at his best than
usually finds his way across the Atlan
tic. Young Alfonso , looking upon
the wrinkled and parchment visage of
this venerable man.yill got now
ideas of the American people and
their greatness. Ho will BOO a septu
agenarian who began holding oflico in
1830 when the king's mother ,
Isabella , was 0 years old and 1ms
never been out of oflico moro than
three months ata time since that date ;
who has been speaker of a state
legislature , govonor of a state , repre
sentative in congress , senator in con
gress , collector of Boston , or vice
president of the United States , during
forty-five years , and is now sent to
round up his half century of oftico
holding at the ancient capital whence
Columbus and Cortez and Do Soto
bore king's commissions to add to thn
Spanish domain a virgin world , If
Alfonso , gazing upon this patriarchal
fixture in the public crib , docs not
gain fresh understanding of the
grandeur of free institution's , ho must
bo a singularly unimpressionable
young man.
A Mystery of Sau Jacinto Monn-
taiiii.
St. Paul Ploncer-Presf.
The San Jacinto Mountains are
located in the north-eastern portion
of San Diego County , and form tlio
southern boundary of the San Gorgocio
Tass. Tlio region is a. very wild and
rough ono , and extremely difficult to
explore. There exists in ono portion
of these mountains a natural or super
natural curiosity , the source of which
has never yet been explained , although
many attempts have been made to
solve the mystery. At irregular
intervals a heavy report resounds
through the region , which pan bo
likened only to that of the largest
camion intensified tenfold. The con
cussion produced is such as to wake
a person trom the soundest sleep ,
shaking and rattling everything in
the house more than is donu by an
ordinary earthquake. Sometimes
day * elapse between these reports ,
and on other occasions as many as
three or four are heard in ono night
that being the favorite time for their
occurcnce. This irregularity has
operated to defeat all efforts made to
discover the exact locality of the
phenomenon. ] { y the Indians of the
regions this is called "Tah-quish , " or
the devil. They luvo many traditions
concerning it , and manifest the utmost
reluctance to make any search for the
exact spot. Ono old Indian , supposed
to bo upward of a century in ago ,
claims to have accidentally discovered
the spot one day while hunting in his
younger days. Ho described it as
simply a dark tunnel running into the
side of thu mountain , and having the
appearance at the entrance of having
been exposed to much heat. Many
otlbrts nave been madu and largo
rewards oll'ercd to this Indian to per
suade him to conduct some white man
to the place , but without success.
The most common tradition with the
aborigines is th.it old "T.\h-quish"
comes out of his evidently uncomfor
table residence below for the purpose
of obtaining a breath of fresh air ,
and that becoming alarmed at some
thing ho retires in haste , slamming
the door after him , which produces
the mysterious report referred to.
For fear , therefore , of oflbnding his
Majesty by discovering him during
ono of his siestas they religiously re
frain from venturing near the spot.
Tlio Welcome to tlio Now Bishop of
Iowa.
ta\cnport Democrat , Ibtti.
As announced in the Sunday
Democrat , the Very llev. John
McMullcn will bo consecrated as
Bishop ot Davenport on Monday July
25 , atlOi " o'clock , a. in. , in the Ca
thedral "of the Holy Name , North
State and Superior streets , Chicago
and Revs. II. Cosgrovo and M. Flavin
well attend by special invitation of
the Bishop-elect , as will Vicar Gener
al Brazil ! , of DCS Moines. Monday
is selected for two reasons : It is a
favorite saint's day and many of the
clergy of the dioccsij , who desire to
attend as a body , will bo able to bo
present. The Consecrator will bo
the Most Rev , P. J. Feehan , arch
bishop of Chicago , and the assisting
prelates will bo chosen from those
who will bo in attendance. Bishop
Spalding of Pcoria , O'Connor of
Omaha , Dwenger of Fort Wayne ,
Hennctsy of Dubuquc , Baltcs of
.i-lton , Hogan of St. Joseph , Ryan of
St. Louis , and several others are ex
pected.
Of course Bishop McMullcn will
receive a warm welcome from the
people of Davenport the people of
the Protestant sects as well as those
of the Catholic communion. For the
purpose of making arrangements for
thu greeting , a meeting of citizens
jencrally will bo hold at St. Anthony's
school house to-morrow evening at
7:30 : o'clock. To this meeting every
body is invited. To bo the See City
Of a Catholic Diocese , which includes
all the largest cities in Iowa but ono ,
and the half of the state which is the
most populous , is something which
brings many advantages in a business
way , as our people will find.

Mr. John W. Mackay , of Nevada ,
sailed for Havre yesterday morning
in the steamship St. Laurent. He in
tends to remain in Europe until Octo
ber , and , upon his return to this coun
try , ho will make a trip through Mex
ico. His wife has made her homo in
Paris , and the gorgeousness of her en
tertainments is the talk of both con
tinents. Her hard-working and genial
husband is known as ono of the most
liberal of men. It seems that Mr.
Cyrus W. Field , who boastcdsoloudly
that ho would raise § 250,000 in the
twinkling of an eye as a gift to the
president's wife , thought it merely
necessary to write to Mr. Mackay for
a contribution. Mr. Mackay received
the note iu this city on Tuesday. lie
read it several times , and said ho was
displeased with its tone. Ho thought
a proper sense of politeness would
have dictated to Mr. Field to call on
him in person. Ho knew , of course ,
that a large sum was expected from
him. After deliberation , ho decided
to do what ho has seldom done in any
such case , to refuse. Ho caused a note
to bo written to Mr. Fiold.tp the effect
that the occasion did not require that
ho should contribute anything , but , in
the event of President Garfiold's
death , n calamity which ho sincerely
hoped would not take place , ho would
bo found in the front rank with those
giving substantial aid to the president's
sorrowing family.
Looking Ahead-
Cincinnati Times.
Tlio growth of population in the
United States during the last ton
years amounted to an increase of a
little over 30 per cent. The same rate
of increase in the next two decades
will give a population of 85,000,000 in
1000.
About thirty per cent , of the in
crease during the last ten yenra or
3,200,000 is duo to immigration , and
seventy per cent , is native born. In
the next twenty years , it is safe to
say , there will be no falling oil' in the
number of emigrants anniiidly Booking
our shores. Therefore , in the year
1900 we are likely to have an addi
tional foreign population on a basis
of a total of 'Jl.000,000 of 12,300-
000 ,
Immigration will continue to flow
westward , of course , and the states
and territories beyond the Mississippi
will receive the bulk of it. It is
hardly probable that emigration from
the older states to the unsettled portions
tions of the fertile west will decrease.
Judging that in 11)00 ) California should
have n population nf 9PX,500 ) ; Colora
do 2,000,000 ; Kansas between 3,000-
000 and 4,000,000 ; Missouri , 3,500-
000 ; Nebraska , from 3,000,000 to
3,500,000 ; Nevada's growth has been
marvclously slow , but in 11)00 ) , aVe
will claim at least 300,000 ; Oregon ,
700,000 : Texas should hare the enor
mous population of 0,000,000. * *
Turning to agriculture , it is easy to
figure out that there will be in the
year 1000 at least 100,000,000 acres
of com , and if the season is favor
able the yield will exceed 3,000,000-
000 bushels. Of wheat wo shall have
130,000,000 acres , yjeldinp at a mod-
crate estimate 1,800,000,000 bushels.
These prodigious figures , beyond
the grasp of thu human mind in the
bulk of grain they represent. Tak-
ing fifty bushoh of corn to the wagon-
load and thirty bushels of wheat , it
would require 120,0000,000 wagons
and 2-10,000,000 horses to move these
two crops to market at oncp. Placing
the teams all in line , and giving twcn-
five feet to ouch , this magnificent pro
cession would reach 508,000 miles , or
nearly twenty-three times around the
world. It would bo long enough to
extend across the continent from Now
York to San Francisco 177 times.
Moving at the ratoof fifty miles a day
this procession would not pass a gfen
point in less than thirty-olio years.
This immense quantity cf grain would
fill ltt,3iKUK : ) ordinary freight cars ,
and 443,4 i 1 locomotives \voulil _ bo re
quire to draw the train , which , includ
ing the locomotives , would bo 53,025
miles long , reaching moro than twice
around the world.
A Peculiar Poo'ilo.
HaltlghXtwsaml Olwcnor.
The people of this region are of an
amphibious nature , and live so much
in and on the water that most of them
I am sure , are web-footed. They live
mainly on fish , clams , oysters , crabs ,
terrapins , and wild fowl. When they
leave homo they go in a boat , and
whether they go to court or no court
ing , or to trade , or to mill , or to a
funeral they always tro by sail. Their
corn mills are run by sails , and some
of them pump their water with wind
mills. They don't go upstairs , but
"go aloft ; " and when they go to bed
they turn in ; " when they are ill they
are "under the weather , and when
in robust health they say they are
"bung up and bilge free. " They
speak of a trim-built sweetheart as
"clipper built. " If she is a little stout
they say she is "broad in the beam , "
or she is "wide across the transom. "
Many of them have ships' cabin
doors in their houses , that slide on
grooves , and to their buildings
they give a coating of tar instead of
painting them. The "old woman"
blows a conch shell when dinner is
ready , and they measure time by
"bells. " Their babies are not rocked
in cradles , but swung in hammocks.
They chow black pig-tail tobacco , and
drink a wild tea called "Yeopon. "
They manure their land with seagrass ,
and bury their yam potatoes in the
sand-hills. When they want 'ho doc
tor they hang n red Hag against a hill
side as a signal of distress. If he
don't come , because the 'wind is fair , "
they take a dram of whisky and cop
peras , soak their feet in sea water ,
"turn in , " and trust to luck. If they
die , they will bo buried on the top of
a sand ridge ; and when you see sever
al sail-boats on thn watnr in proces
sion , with a flag at half mast , jou are
looking at a funeral.
They ornament their houses with
whales' ribs and jaws , sharks' teeth ,
sword fish snoots , dovil-fish arms ,
saw-fish swords ( six feet long ) , minia
ture ships , camphor-wood chests ,
Honduras gourds , spy-glasses , South
American lariats , war clubs from the
Mozambique islands , Turkish pipes ,
West India shells , sandal wood-boxes ,
Chinese chessmen , Japanese faces ,
Madagascar idols , Australian boom
erangs , and other strange outlandish
things. Their hogs are raised on
clams , muscles , oll'nl of fish , and gar
bage , and their cattle wade out on the
shoals for miles , where the water
covers their backs , to feed on sea
grass , and if .they are carried up-
couutry , and fed on'corn and fodder ,
they will not live.
Tnolumno Pocket Mliios-
Stockton ( Cat. ) Independent.
The gold fever is raging with pecu
liar fierceness at Sonora. Men have
left their vines and their orchardsand
have taken to the hills with picKs and
shovels , and fresh dirt is visible at
every hand. A now light has recently
dawned on the people of that section.
They find that the miners of twenty
years ago failed because their search
was for gold. They should have look
ed for lodges and pockets. They look
ed for rich gravel and failed ; men to
day are searching for rich pockets and
ledges , and are finding them. They
enter old tunnels , and seeing a slip of
clay , may bo no thicker than a piece
of paper , they follow on , nnd lo ! a
pocket. They dig into the hills and
strike a blue streak and de
tect the contact line be
tween the state and limestone ,
and see where water has found its
way in and carried its ingredients
with it and rotted the rock , and they
take out the yellow dirt and put it
through a battery and pocket from
§ 100 to 8200 per ton for their ven
ture , Sometimes the vein of quartz
is found , and that is taken and milled
with good results ; but the richest
finds of all are the little pockets of
oxigonizod quarts , which yields some
times half their weight in solid coin.
A man named Lewis , who has boon
prospecting lately , left Stockton for
San Francisco with a log of a pair of
overalls filled with rock , which was
nearly or quite one-half gold. Ho
made no secret of the fact that ho got
it from a ledge near Sonora , and that
itvas taken from the surface , Ho
pounded out < ! 10 with n mortar in a
short time before taking out this rich
rock , Lewis Kays he has a boulder
worth § 15,000 which ho took from his
claim.
