& rie DAILY TRANSCRIPT, NEVADA cITY, CAL. BROWN ball CALKINS, Prop’ts. © N, P. BROWN..... Business — LEONARD RRAEMEA vos edd is cece itor Nevada Cruty, Ocal Pres SATURDAY, MARCH 8, THE NEW APPORTIONMENT. The-Placer Argus says: The Senatorial apportionment bill which gives Placer and El Dorado counties one Senator between them can only be considered fair to the extent that, ander the circumstances, it might have heen difficult, and perhaps even impossible to do better. The truth is there are too many restrictions and hamperings in the new Constitution to permit of a thoroughly fair and ‘satisfactory readjustment of _legislative power among the counties, Not only must the various Gistricte be made of contignous-territory, but re gard must be had to such questions as amount of population, identity ‘of interests, _ political equality, — ete. Thus Placer county with its repre“sentative population “of ~12,031—) “representative” excludes Chinese —could not reasonably expect a Senator, because on an average Senators can only be given to every 19,600 of representative population. Nor could El Dorado with its 9197 expect such consideration. On the other hand, Nevada county was just about right for a Senator. When it comes to dealing with the question of Assemblymen, it ix different, Plac\er bas more than enough population t entitle it to one Assemblyinan, but not enough for two. Patting the thing ina mathematical kind of way it is entitled to two thirds of a Senator._and also. to one .-.and onefifth Assemblymen: Buta Senator, or purposes of representation, ‘is equal to two Assemblymen. Hence Placer county alone is populous enough to have two and one-half Assemblymen, or a Senator and half an Assemblyman. If, then, El. Dorado gets an Assemblyman, and Placer an Assemblyman only, the latter will be at a loss of twenty per cent; in its legislative pro rata, while El Dorado will have a -very little more than she is entitled to. In such case while Nevada county is faring quite well enough for her citizens to be entirely satisfied with their legislative lot, and‘El Dorado is’ more than satisfied, Placer will be left out in the cold to che extent above mentioned, namely, twenty per cent. of aloss. It isnot much satisfaction to know that 2 Democratic legislature has also shorn Sacramento coun‘ty of some of her legislative power. The only solace conveyed by the lastnamed reflection will be had in case this apportionment become .a law, when there will be one rabid antimining Senator less. ey ¢ Cot, PARKER asserts a truth which teachers sadly need to know—that uniformity in schools is certain death. He does not believe in ‘per cents.” He would not have them in schools under any circumstances. Here is a child who is not s0 quick mentally as another; he studies as hard and labors as faithfully as the others, but not being able to advance as rapidly he is marked 50 per cent., while others walk off waving their 95 per cent. in triumph. It is dis-. couraging to the moderately dull child, and-wrong. Ifa child is examined and asked thename of a river and cannot answer off ome five per cent, Joun_Fixmine, a convict. from San Quentin, who was at Oroville as a witness in a burglary case, made his escape from the jail Wednesday at noon by quietly walking out behind some carpenters who. were. repairing the celle, He’was missed in a few minut-s, and a vigorous pursuit was at once instituted; but up to this writing no trace of him has been reported. He is the only witness in the case against the defendant, who will necegsarily go clear if Fleming cannot be found, Senator Tazor, whose two hundred and fifty dollar night shirts attracted great attention, was married Thursday night at Willard’s Hotel, Washington, toa young and pret. ty widow, represented to be from Chicago, named’ ‘McCour. The wedding present was a diamond necklace of fabulous value. Witttam: E.

Saved by a Negro’s Blood. The man who was found ‘nearly suffocated by gas in the Hotel Andte, in West Eleventh street, on Saturday proved tobe C. J. Victor Okerburg of Brooklyn, a Swede by birth, Secretary for Mr. Van Horn of the Western Company. Drs. Ferdinand C, Valentine of No. 28 West Eleventh street, and Dr, James Anderson of No. 20 University place, were” summoned, Later, Dr. Garrigues arrived. He was pulseless. He was breathing quite irregularly, eleven times to a minute, and his heart was beating twenty-five times'to a minute, Artificial respiration was first employed, but later it was decided to apply the remedy of transfusion of blood, A vigorous negro, Edward Banks, eighteen years old, with no hereditary or acquired disease, offerered himself for the purpose. Dr. Valentine in talking of the case, said to a Tribune reporter: ‘‘We abstracted eight ounces of blood from the negro’s arm, beat it up in a bowl with a fork and strained it through the folds of a clean,fine piece. of muslin. We then dissected up a superficial vein in the _patient’s arm, opened it and allowed a few ounces -of blood to escape, ~The nozzle” of the transfuse syringe, which is amodified and more delicate make of the cormmon household syringe, was inserted and the blood ejected into the patient’s arm, and was taken up by the circulation, This operation took about two hours, After the transfusion I proceeded with other remedies, sapplemented by the use of the hours later succeeded in calling the patient to partial consciousness, but it was not till six Pp.m. that he was thoroughly conscious. By questioning him, I discovered that he was aware that he had left his home on Friday morning, but he remembered nothing afterwards.. He did not know where he was or what time had elapsed. His wife was sent for and came in the meantime. She said hé had some slight business trouble, though not enough to justify extreme measures, Being unused to trouble it had produced temporary mental aberration. Okerburg yesterday disclaimed all intention of taking his life, and regarded himself as able to overcome his troubles. Transfusion of blood is a more usual remedy than peuple are aware of.” a seen Feminine Brevities.

This gives a fellaw_a-long day to repent. Girls are ‘more courageous than They are ready to make a match with a fellow twice their size, : People say that blackberries are good for the complexion ; but who wants a blackberry complexion, They are raising a row with a young man in New Jersey who was engaged to marry thirteen different girls, It’s getting so a man can’t have avy fun at all in that State. The question as to who is the handsomest woman in America is still in dispute, but thousands of girls believe that-if it was not for their freckles they’d be justly entitled to that distinction, Tue Senate and Assembly are now holding night sessious. A rush’ of bills, which is likely to be equal to the tidal wave which floated many of the present members into their seats, is about to commence.
