Hnn Diego county has lKen embur
ritHHoil liy tho decMon of tho Ntipremo
court which declare it illegal to pay
for extra clerical hiro out of the county
fuTida. For months tho county Iiuh been
trying to provido boiiih way out of the
difllculty by nmiiloying what in tunned
"einergoiicy chirks," but all of these
were, dischitrgnd on Fob. 28. The super
visors, by virtue of tho umomlimmt of
to the county government act of
1891, have appointed a register of deeds,
a clerk of the board of supervisors, a
jail ir and superior court builiir, consoli
dating those offices with those of the re
corder, county clerk mid sheriff. By
this means tho compensation of olllciuls
is so increased that they can pay for
clerical assistance from their own sala
ries. It is thought that this will result
in a saving to the county of $98,000 per
annum.

ond time. Securing a revolver she fired
at him twice, but missed. Boyd is a

Walter Wellmnn, the Washington
correspondent who has organized an ex
pedition to solve the polar problem, and
his companions sailed on Wednesday
for F,urojie. At a special meeting of
the National Press club at Washington,
Wellman was prosentod with a hand
some silk flag of the United States,
which the club desired he should naii
to tho top of the north pole or plant it
in the hole he discovered. Wellman, in
a gracious speech, accepted the burden
placed upon him and said the flag
should lie placed at the highest northern
point reached by the expedition. The
expedition will start from Norway' and
sail to the island of Spitzbergen, within
700 mile of tho pole. From there the
journey on the ice will begin.
It is stated in gambling circles that a
projoet is on foot to establish a Monte
Carlo at East Omaha similar to the in
stitution in Monaco. A syndicate of
wealthy local gamblers is to be formed.
The site to be selected will be on the
Iowa side, near the street car line. The
building will have an annex in which
reading, smoking and concert rooms
will be arranged. In an informal dis
cussion of the Bchome proposed at a
gathering of several of the wealthy
gamblers, the subject of the locatku of
a first-class racetrack was also men
tioned. The plan is to establish first
class sporting headquarters upon a scale
0f splendor not equaled elsewhere in the
country, and as the location would be
oubilde of the jurisdiction of police
authorities arrangements could be made
for all sorts of sporting events,

Hie Great Paper Mill In the Lead-Its
Latest Publication.
But few pojiers of the United State
have ever undertaken a work of great
er magnitude than has evidently been
called for In the publication of the
QrtytmUin't "Handbook of tbe Pacific
Northwest," a copy of which has Just
reached the desk of the VViHT Hiok.
The "handbook" w something ot A
misnomer Inasmuch as It give but
little Idea of the great scope of the
work. Its value as a book of reference
mi lie Appreciated from the statement
that It index alone contains upward
of 10,000 entries, but aside front it
value a a statistical publication, .It
complete and highly interesting sub
ject mutter almost entitles the book to
beciui-M'd as a history. It contains
nearly 1,000 Illustrations which were
made in the Ortyonian'u engraving
nsiiiis. It is a well bound a any of
the finest Eastern publications and
lu Us press work and generally attract- .
ive upiwaraiice it Is far ahead of any
siteciul publication ever Issued under '
the auspices of any paper on tbe coast.
The to iK of the "handbook" can be
better understood when it 1 stated
that it contains exhaustive aud relia
ble articles ou all the leading industries
of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, West
ern Montana aud British Columbia; on
the climate, topography and soil of
this vast region, and extended men
tion of every town of importance In the
Pacific Northwest. Euergy applied to
a practical purpose, the dominant factor
in the success of the Qrcjonian, was
never shown to better advantage than
lu the publication of tbe "handbook"
during a year when all business was
stagnated aud when nothlug but un
profitable returns were looked for from
most enterprises. Everybody who de
sires full and accurate information on
the Pacific Northwest, should send for
a copy of the "handbook," and the
book t-hould be kept on file, in all pub-
lie libraries. It is sold at the popular
price of three dollars,
