IBM) AToniA is destined lo become a largo and prominent city in the near future, and while no one can prevent tins, yot every one can do something to ltneleu the day, and the more united the effort, the sooner -will the result be nltaiued. Gekm.vnt shows a commendable spirit in proposing to erect a monu ment in memory of her sailors who perished in the hurricane at Samoa. Well may the query be raised why the Tinted States cannot do the same thing for the brave Americans who also perished there. CnoiiBUA is raging in Yokohama and other places in Japan, as evi denced by the latest news from there. In China, people are selling members of Uieir famih to save them from 'arvuiE, but even this is not a strange thing for Chinese, as mothers and futhorc often sell their own daughters for purposes of prostitution. And yet -ome of our eastern friends often wouder vh we are opposed to Chinese lnnmgraiioii to the .Pacific const. Axong the cranks of these latter days a "miracle doctor" in Galicia is certainly entitled to a place in the ftut rank of that vast army. He pre cnbed as a cure for typhus fever the burniag of the bones of a Jew in the Indent's room. His benighted fol Iwere dug up Jewish children from their graves and burned the bones. The "doctor" was given five months in prison to ruminate on his foolish at tempt to fool . other fools. Bead the article iu this issue, on another page. Afstkaija pays yearly a subsidy of $12Ti.0O0 to the line of steamers be tween that country and this, yet the 1'uitcd States pays the same line only 7.000 annually. Naturally enough Australia demands that we pay as much as tho. or their subsidy will lx stopped entirely, and then the steamers Anil be withdrawn. Uncle Sam is surely as well able to pay one half of the total subsidy which would 1k 100,000 as is Australia to pay a like amount, and it should be done, :is a matter of national pride if for no oilier reason. Amid all the numerous strikes on nearly every great railroad line in the rnitod Slates. J lie Southern Pacific has been :s free as any. General Manager Townc, now one of the vice presidents, roe fiom the osition of ltrakeman. and understands fully the m silts mid claims of the men, from ivrsonal experience. To his able and judicious management, the success of tliat great corjMiralion with its thous ands of miles or lines, and its immun ity from strikes is doubtless largely attributable. Kven the impending strike by the hrakemen will doubtless be averted by his pleasant and uni versally jnecessrul methods. The Taeoma Kcics, (-peaking tr the availibility of Green river water for city use aays: "There might be an ingredient in the water that would lc detrimental to health. This wouldn't be a serious objection to us Democrats who can do without water in a pinch, but the Prohibitionists and the Mugwumps, what would become or them? Without them we should lack the humorous side of life and after all, that is the real leaven of ex istence. Besides there are some who can't afford perfume after a bath, and it is highly desirable that the water for bathiug pnroses should not have to go through a sieve. Just lo make assurance doubly sure suppose a carc rnl analysis be made of Green river water.' The Trent ami the Sticker. I AX ASTOKIA TABLE One bright summer morning a beau tiful speckled Trout lay in a deep, dark hole in Bock creek and chatted ploasanlh with his friend, the Sucker, and tried lo cheer him up a little. 'It makes me feel sorry,' said the Trout, "to see you going around with your lip hanging down that way like n motherless colt Why don't you get a move on and eniov yourself. There! See that nice fat grasshopper? Watch me take him in," and the Xtout made a herce rush at the un fortunate hopper and was wound up in -Mac s reel. The Sucker mournfully shook his head and told an Eel who had come up that he knew the Trout would not last leng: he was too fresh. "You never see mo talcing any such chances: now here comes a worm there is no danger in worms. Watch me pick it up," and the Eel saw him stretch his mouth a foot or two and pick up a fat worm, in wnose carcass was niutlen one of Grandpa Hess' ringed Kerby's, and he too left the wetness. Loft all alone the Eel fastened to a wash boulder aud fell to meditating, until after considerable effort he ar rived at the following meral: It makes little difference whether one is a Trout or a Sucker, there is always something lie will bite at And if you can't catch a person with one bait, uso another. xfchaiem Journal.

ROEB & PARKER, General Agents, PRETTY IRISH GIRLS. The Rosy anil Bnxom Women of the Rural District. In the remoter districts, away from the villages, among the peaty bogs and the hawthorn hedges, the roses bloom red in the cheeks of the Irisb peasant girL However she manages it on the stirabout and potatoes, she grows lush and vigorous and full of sap, like the green tilings that fill the island. The colleen bawn is straight, she is not infrequently tall, her shoulders are broad, her waist large but supple, and she lool:s as strong as a young man. Her hair is brown, perhaps with a shade of chestnut; sometimes it has a ripple in it, but of tencr it is lus terless and straight, and, very possi bly, so heavy as to be almost mop-like. I have seen peasant girls with braids that were like clubs, the tresses when unbound reaching the knees. Her forehead is low, and the wave of hair is drawn back to leave it un covered; her eyes arc frank and blue, her complexion clear, though exposure to the weather has darkened it and put into shades of yellow-brown, and the red in her cheeks is as deep as in the poppies that brighten the wheat fields. It is a splash of color, daring, as if an artist had Hung it on a dark spot of his canvas more brilliant than one ever sees in the drier climate of what they are here pleased to call "the states,' spreading its warm blush quite from cheekbone to chin. The peasant girl is often fine look iugsometimes superlatively handsome, but never what an American would consider any delicacy of beauty. She has few of the soft curves of more luxuriously nurtured young woman hood. Her arms arc not rounded; they look muscular and hard. Her bust is fiat, like an Amazon's. She is not dimpled, but she is sturdy, jis be comes a scion of the ''foinest pisanthry in the world." Her greatest charm is her fresh and splendid vitality. She wears a red kerchief over her head or folded .about her shoulders, and a petticoat of brown or dark blue sluir, which she weaves herself and which stops Ifalt way between her knees and her ankles. Six days in the week her feet are brown ;uid bare. Thev are largo feet and look belter in their naked shapeliness than when disguised for Sundays and holi days under coarse yarn stockings these she knits and the cheap laced shoes with the peculiar combination of thick soles and high heels, which conio lo the small market towns. For defense against the weather she has a long black cloak, gathered at the neck and provided with a hood, and which is probably ihe most characteristic article left of ihe old peaant costume. The Los Angeles Express says: In boring an nrlcsi.m veil in Lompoc valley a log was bliuck 150 feet below the surface. This indicates that the valley must have bi.cn a very deep la goon. This log is now about seventy feet below sea level, The mystery iu this, at what period was this an arm of the sea, sufficiently deep to float the largest sized ships, eight miles back from the ocean? j-gl have brought myself, by long meditation, to the conviction (said Lord 13eaconsfield) that a human be ing with a settled purpose must ac complish it and that nothing can resist a will that will stake even ex istence for its fulfillment It is said that on the Mexican Gulf railroad in Mexico the ties are made of the finest mahogany and the bridges built of marble. These materials were the cheapest to be had, since they were found along the track. UncJilcii.. Arnica Salve.
