NEW ISSUE OF BONDS
i CLEVELAND WILL NOT WAIT
For Action by Congress. Negotiation
An Now Said to Be Pending
With New Yorkers for Bonds
at Three per Cent.
. NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Presidcnl
Cleveland has decided that lie will
Hot wait for action by congress before
a $ per cent basis.
Tbe decline of the gold reserve to a
danger point last spring forced the
government to pay 3 per cent for gold
procured (rem tbe Belmont-Morgan
syndicate. Credit baa been re-estab
lished by that operation and tbe ad
ministration desires to take advantage
of the better business confidence pre
vailing to secure tho gold at tbe low
rate of 3 per cent.
The Stanford Suit.
NEW YORK. Not. 15.-Mrs. Le-
land Stanford, of California. Kt at the
Fifth-Avenue hotel. 8he talked of the
university founded by her husband in
memory of their son, and of the gov
ernment's suit which has tied up the
funds formerly available" for carrying
on tbe university work. She said:
'The suit of the government against
the estate of my husband, involving as
it does the very life of the university
founded by him, has caused me the
deepest trouble and anxiety, nud no
one but myself knows what I have
undergone in mental worry for the
past two years.
You see, I have not been my own
mistress. I have been a creature at
tbe mercy of tbe courts and subject to
their beb st day and night. Drawn
out and (Tolongcd hss been tbe con
tent. I now have hope that in three
months the final decision will be ren
dered, aud the matter be settled for all
time. A favorable decision means a
limit deal to the people of California.
"The naming of this early ante for a
bearing Is due to the attorney-general
alone, and I am grateful tu him. Had
tbe esse been obliged to await Its turn
on the docket, I am sure tbst I do not
know what I would have done, as
there are fully 800 rases ahead of It.
If the ease be decided against the
estate, I shall have no alternative but
to close tbe doors of Stanford univers
ity ties I June, when tbe college year
ends. I Intend before returning to
California, to vllt Niagsrs to ex
amine into those wonderful operations
wbicb are In progress there to turn Its
tremendous power Into a benefit to the
cities surrounding It.
An Infant Incubator.
BAN FRANCIHCO, 15.-An Oak
laud infant is belpg raised In an oven
from which an Incubator has been ex
temporized by Dr. F. E. McCullougb,

born to a young couple living at pied
mont Heights, but tbe little stranger
did not get as fair a start In life as lt-
;! ones should, bavlng put In an ap-
pearanot prematurely, and In consequ
ence It is weakly. Dr. McCullougb
law that tbe only hope for It was arti-
fiiilal nursing and hastened into town
where at a stove sp.re he picked out au
oven used ordinarily for blwMits, pfea,
etc.. and from It constructed a warm
abiding plaoe for the baby. The walls
of the oven were lined with cotton ana
the baby was placed therein. A ther
mometer was ttched to the top of
the oven an that til utei(lapt Ifllght

expected the baby may be nursed to
strength, Tltn Inoubstor l watched
incessantly by a nurse as the tempera

blood heat, for fear of chilling nor to
rise above that point for fear of over

Her First Appearance.
Mary Anderson do Navarro In her
stage career memoirs, which will be
published In The Ladles' Home Jour
nal (the cpeiung chapters in the De
cember Issue), gives the publio a most
interesting and entertaing view of the
trials and hardships she succesefuly
combated in following out her con
viction that tbe stage presented to her
the opportunity for a splendid career.
She exultantly refers to her debut iu
Louisville, Kentucky, on Saturday
evening, November 27, 1872, upon
which occasion the "bill shy and awk
ward" girl of aixtoen interpreted
Shakespeare's love-lorn "Juliet." The
performance was arranged upon two
days' notice time far but a single re
hearsaland the aspiring Kentucky
girl was lubilant when the theatre and
a stock company were offered her,
upon condition that she play without
pay, Her happiness, however, was
not unclouded, for of tbe event tbe
writes with touching pathos: "That
Thursday," (tbe day that her first ap
pearance waa arranged) "was one of
the happiest days of all my life, filled
as it waa with the brightest hope and
anticipation. Only one black cloud
hung over tt: the thought of Nonie
and n y grandparents who were alt
very dear to me. Had I known then
that I would never see tbe face of
tbe former, that he would die, my
mother and I far away from him, and
that almost until his death be would
refuse to forgive or see me unless I
abandoned tbe itage-llfe' which he
thought so injurious nay sinfull I
would even then have renounced what
was within my grasp. This estrange
ment saddened many years of my life,
and has cast a shadow over all tbe
otherwise bright and happy memories
of him who was the father, friend and
playmate of our childhood days." ;
Mrs. de Navarro evidently did not
suffer from stage fright, tbe crushing
terror of degutantes, for she writes
that she stood impatiently waiting for
her "cue" to go on. At last it came.
"Then, in a Sash, I was on the stage,
conscious only of a wall of yellow light
before me, and a burst of prolonged
applause." Tbe performance was
filled with rather depressing Incidents;
one of the players forgot his lines and
bad to be prompted by tbe youthful
star; "Romeo" neglected to bring his
dagger, and "Juliet" had to per
form her dispatch with u
hairpin, while the lamp that hung iu
"Juliet's tomb, fell and badly burned
her hands and arms. "Despite of
these," she writes, "the night was n
success, and I knew that my stage
career hud begun in earnest.
Northwest's Timber Resources.
Washington and Oregon have more
standing timber than all the test of
the United States put together; they
have more than ten times as much as
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota
(the white pine states) combined; more
than 400 times as much as the great
lumber state of Maine, and more than
600 times as much as New York.
The nine largest lumber states of
the South have only one-third as
these two forest kings of the North
west. The woods of Washington and
Oregon weuld make a girdle 'rontid
the earth three miles wide. If all the I
other forests of the Union were to go
up in smoke these two slates could
meet the present demand until forests
were regrown'. At tbe present rate ot
consumption, and not allowing for
new growth, the forests of the United
States will be exhausted 120 years.
The woods of Michigan, Wlsoousin,
and Minnesota will be exhausted
within ten years. Then Washington
and Oregou will be tbe chief source ot
supply for the whole Unlun,
