Santa Barbara channel at 1 o'clock
tliis afternoon, where she -will make
her official trial trip.
As the San Francisco steamed
slowly down the bay, she was saluted
by the shipping in harbor. Flags
were dipped and the SprecTcles tug
gave the handsome ship a royal send
off. From the brazen throats of their
steam whistles the answer responded
with her sonorous siren and as she
proceeded along the water-front the
noise became deafening. The ferry
boats took up the signal and hats and
handkerchiefs were waved from the
shore and steamers. .
A little further up the "Bed Fun
nel" tugs joined in the jollification
and away sped the cruiser through tho
Golden Gate, carrying with her the
good wishes of all in her trial against
time.

A MILLION LIVES.
The March of a Generation of Roys and
GirR
A generation on the march from tho
cradle to the gravo is an instructive
spectacle, and wo havo it carefully
presented to us in a report of Dr.
Parr. Letustraco the physical for
tune which any million of us may
reasonably expect. Tho number, to
begin with, isTiiado up of 511,7-15 boys
and -iSS,255 girls, a disproportion
which, by and by, will bo reversed by
tho nnduo mortality of the boys and
will be reversed before the close of this
strange eventful history. More than
a quarter of these children will die be
fore they aro five years"- old in exact
numbers, l-il,3S7 boys sind 121,795
girls.
Tho two sexes aro now nearly on a
level. The next five years will be
much less fatal. In the succeeding
flvo years from 10 to 15 tho mortal
ity will bo still farther reduced. In
deed, for both sexes this is tho most
healthy period of life; tho death rate,
however, is lower for boys than girls.
There will be some advanco in deaths
in tho next live years, and still more
in tho fivo that follow, but 031,015 will
certainly enter on their 2Gth year.
Peforo the next ten years are at an
end two-thirds of the women will havo
married. Tho deaths during that per
iod will bo G2,053, and of these no
fewer than 27,12-1 will bo caused by
consumption. Between 35 and 45 a
still larger "death loll" will be paid,
and littlo more than half tho original
band in exact numbers 502,915 will
enter on their 4Gth year.
Each succeeding decado up to 75
will now become more fatal and tho
numbers will shrink terribly. At 75
only 161,12-1 will remain to bo struck
down, and of these 122,559 will have
perished by tho .85th year of the
march. The 32,565 that remain will
soou lay down their burdens, but

DISCUSSING DROWNING.
Keep Your Breath and Your Head are the
31nln Points.
The New York Times in some
"hints on drowning" says: "Keep
your breath" is, of course, the best
advice to peoplo who won't be advised
not to trifle with tho liquid which both
floats and strangles. The next best
advice is: "Keep your head." If in
threatening circumstances, think. If
you aro swimming in the breakers,
reflect that tho approaching
wave, which suddenly looks so
high, will certainly lift you to its
height before the foamy comber breaks
about your ears. And when the pass
ing wave sinks beneath your falling
body, have no fear that you will be
swallowed in the watery abyss. Noth
ing more exhausts an ocean swimmer
than useless efforts to climb an ap
proaching mountain of water, or to
float downward more slowly than the
receding wave.
The water will float very nearly all
women and most men in snch
a position that they can
breathe if the limbs are allowed
to sink. Bnt the arms can only be
thrust higher than the head at the
cost of submerging tho nose. In ex
actly tho same way, if one edge of a
lifo preserver be depressed its mass
will turn as on a pivot and
the opposite edge will rise
without giving much increase
of floating power. Just as nearly the
whole body must bo submerged to ele
vate tho nose, so a life preserver must
be wholly depressed to give its great
est floating power. Thoreforo a plank
or log should bo grasped at its middle
and not at its end, but, on tho other
hand, a boat should bo seized at the
stern instead of the middle, unless the
object bo to roll its gunwales under
and fill it
Startling Dlscorerr.
The discovery by the inhabitants of a
locality hitherto unvisited by the pestilent
scourge of fever and ague, that it exists in
their very midst. Is decidedly startling.
Such discoveries are made at every season,
in every part of the Union. Subsequently,
when it is ascertained, as it invariably is at
such times, through the valuable experience
of someone who has been benefitted and
cured, that Hostctter's Stomach Bitters is a
thoroughly eflicacious cradicator of the
malarial poison, and a means of fortifying
the system against it. a feeling of mora se
curity and tranquillity reigns throughout
the whole neighborhood. Besides the febrile
forms of malarial disease, dumb ague and
ague cake are removed by the potent action
of the Bitters, to which science also gives its
sanction as a remedy for rheumatism, dy-
spepia. constipation, liver complaint, de-
uiiity. Kiuney trouDies. ami an diseases im

TIMP ! GREED OF A BIG HOUSE. ! - s
How It Absorbs Income,
Happiness.
Comfort
and
There was a story in the newspapers
the other day about a Massachusetts
minister who resigned his charge
because some one had given his parish
a fino house, and his "parishioners
wanted him to live in it. His salary
was too small, he said, to admit of
his living in a big house, aud he
wonld not do it. He was even deaf to
the proposal that he should share
the proposed tenement with the
sewing societies and clubs of
his church, and when tho mat
ter came up to a serions issue, he
! relinquished his charge and sought a
new neiu ot usefulness, xue situation
was an amusing instance of the em
barrassment of riches. Let no one to
whom restricted quarters may have
grown irksome, and who coveU larger
dimensions of shelter, be loo hnsty in
deciding that the minister was wrom
Did you ever see the hoiue that Hav, -thorne
lived in at Lenox? Did you
ever see Emerson's house at Concord?
They are good houses for Americans
to know and remember. They per
mitted thought.
A big house is one of tho greediest
cormorants which can light upon a lit
tle income. Backs may go threadbare
and stomachs may worry along on in
different fillings', but a house will
have things, though its occupants go
without. It is rarely complete, and
constantly tempts tho imagination to
fliohts iii brick and dreams in lath
and plaster. It develops annual
thirsts for paint mid wall-paper; the J
plumbing in it must bo kept in order ,
on pain of ucatu. whatever price is
put on coal it has to be heated in win
ter; and if it is rural or subnrbau, the
grass about it must be cut even
though funerals in the family have to
be put off for the mowing. If the ten
ants are not rich enough to hire peo
ple to keep their house clean they
must do it themselves, for there is no
excuse that will pass among house
keepers for a dirty house. The master
of a house too big for him may expect
to spend the leisure which might be
made intellectually or spiritually pro
fitable in acquiring and putting into
practice fag ends of the arts of the j
plumber, tho bell-ringer, tho lcek-1
smitli, the gasfitter and the carpenter.
Presently ho will know how to do
everything that can no done m the
house except enjoy himself. Tie will
learn about taxes, too, and water rates,
aud how such abominations as sowers
or new pavements are
alwavs
liable to accrue at his expense. As for
the mistress, she will be a slave to
carpets and curtains, wall-paper,
painters, and women who come in by
the day to clean. Sho will be lucky (
if she gets a chance to say her prayers
and thrice and Tour times happy when
she can read a book or visit with her
friends. To live in a big house may I
be a luxury, provided that one has a
full set of money and an enthusiastic
housekeeper in one's family, but lo j
scrimp in a big house is a miserable
business. Yet such is human folly,
that for a man to refuse to live in ji
house because it is o big for him is
such an exceptional exhibition of
sense that it beconits.tho favorite par
agraph of a day in the newspapers.
