The Republicans of this Congressional
District are unanimous in the desire that
Hon. Grove L. Johnson shall be one of th
delegates chosen to represent them at th:
National Convention at St Louis. Hir
selection stands assured, and the people will
have made vo mistake in their choice. We
‘will warrant that Grove L. Johnson will be
heard from in the deliberations of that Convention and will be as prominent as he har
been in the present Congress. His candidacy
for this honor will do nothing to weaken his
canvas for re-election to Congress this fall,
on the contrary it will provide the occasion
for evidencing to the people of this District
that on putting him to.the fore they make
no mistake.
What May Happen.
The countries of the earth are busy piling
up navies and national debts in like proportion, but no sooner do they get one set
of ships built than these at once became anti
quated and useless because of some discovery
o' improvement in naval warfare that makes
them of no avail, One of these days some
new principle will be discovered that will
sweep the whole batch of them out of the
count altogether: and render them of no
more value than 80 much old iron or steel.

A MILLINER'S REPUDIATION.

Miss Haake Declares She Has Been'Misrepresented by a Bay City Paper.
The San Francisco Post of last Monday
contained a lengthy article relative to Mies
Alice Haake, the milliver, now well known
in this city, and spoke of the young lady
in no complimentary terms, The article
accuses her of swindling a number of young
ladies Out Of sume of money on the promise
of instructing them: im the millinery art.
Miss Haake arrived in this city a few
days previous to Easter with a stock of
fashionable millinery, and disposing of the
same went below a few days later to replenish:it. -She returned. to this city some
time last week and has since been here, intending to remain all summer, When
shown the paper ‘containing the article
Miss Haake was greatly affected and emphatically denied the accusation of wrongdoing on her part, stating that a mistake
had occurred somewhere or else it was part
of some base scheme. having blackmail for
its object. She said it was true that she
instructed young ladies in the millinery
business, but that her class was limited to
fifteen persons, whose terms began on January Ist and expired on April 1st. During
March a number of ladies made application
for instruction but Miss Haake refused to
receive them because they would not have
time to complete the course as she intended to leave for Nevada City to spend
geveral months, As to her leaving San
Francisco in a manner which would indicate flight she also said her ex-pupils know
different, for one of them purchased her
ticket. Miss Haake will go to San Francisco in the morning to investigate the
matter and demand an accounting of those
who have placed her in a wrong light. lt
A WORKMAN’S CLAIM.
Judge Caldwell’s Judgment Affirmed: in
an Important Case,
Monday the Supreme Court affirmed the
decisiun of Judge Caldwell in the case of
Della Piazza vs. Foley & Bohannan. This
case has interesting features. In 1890, Foley
and Bohannan were the owners of the California mine, near Graniteville. Foley commeneced working it and shared the profits
with his co-worker, Bohannan, which the
Court holds made them partners. In Degember, 1890, Foley hired Della Piazza to
ent wood, and to do other work, which the
iatter continued till November, 1891, when
he demanded a settlement from Foley, who
settled as though he were the only party interested. He paid a part and gave Della
Piazza his note for the ,balance, who gave
him a receipt in fullin return. When the
uote became due Foléy. was insolvent and
and nothiug could be realized from him. In
Jaly, 1891, while Della Piazza was at work,
Foley and Bobannan organized a corporation
and sold the mine to it, Mr. Foley continuing as superintendent. Della Paizza was not
notified of the change and went along as before, When he found he could not collect
the nole of Foley he commenced suit against
Foley and Bohannan, as partners, for the
whole, claiming the note was not payment
and in taking it Bohannan was not released.
Bohannan sought to-set up as a defense that
as half the work was done after the corporation had taken charge and about half
the amount due had been paid when Foley’s
note for balance and gave a receipt for the
bill he was released ; he further denied being a partner. ~Judge Caldwell sustained
Della Piazza in every point, overruling all
Bohannan’s defences. The Judge is now
sustained by the Supreme Court. Chas, W.
Kitts represented Della Piazza and F, T.

than one this may be known as® ‘‘the
academy headache, ’’ for if it is temporaBurlington House it is even mors
readily excited and permanently establishéd among the children at the board
gchools and the girls of the high schools.
Severty-two per cent of the children of
today are said to be sufferers from defective eyesight, generally in the direotion of difficulty in seeing near objects
clearly. Headaché is almost always present in the cases of the poor little creafares, whosé bodies are starved while
their minds are overfed in the scramble
for educational grants.
The_ocular headache is often cooxistent With the anemic headache, especially in growing girls. Here we find
