His paper was a corker while it lasted. He printed just what he thought, after the same gingery style that he used to talk between acts to his theater audiences, In other words, he conducted a reform organ. The temperature suddenly rose in old Tuolumne, but editor Foote kept on whacking away. He succeeded in a wonderfully short space -of time in speaking his mind about Qvery person and institution that did not accord with his ideas. He won the belt as the most independent and fearless editor on the slope, but unhappily his business went to the dogs. Now Foote, who is really a talented actor and not a bad fellow at heart, whose “worse fault has been his unwillingness to concede that the public has any rights he should respect, is again eovering the billboards of the country with the bright red cross that is his trademark, and on this cross he has printed in large letters the suggestive word, “Resurgam.”LT Works Like a Charm. b care of fire alarm system, $5; Gamewell Vereran’s Hom, Cal., December-9th, : Richard Foote is:on hig feet again in Gray’s -report. the theatrical . showed that the balance on hand at the last report was $11,420.29.

The last seon of him was nearly two weeks -8g0, when he was aboard a Los Angeles street car going towards the Southern Pavific railway station. Rose is known to have cashed a check on the Ist of the month drawn on the Orocker-Woolworth bank for $2,300, and it is said this transaction has caused his principals much anxiety. A. J. Coffee, who was connected with ‘Rose in the Pacific Coast agency, has been appointed to succeed the missing man.

No one could imagine what he or she was expected to do, bat was soon informed.. The girl who gave the party stood atthe head of the room with a small clock inher hand and said: “Now each one of you is to draw a picture of some kind on the glass plates, and you dre given just five minutes to doit in. First you light-the lamps; then in turn each smokes a glass, and when I set off the alarm in this little clock you are tocommence. Draw the pictures— landscapes, animals, portraits, anyething you wish—with your fingers, and when the alarm stops ringing you must stop drawing. The one who turns out the best picture gets a prize. There are first, second and booby prizes. The napkins are to wipe your fingers on. -When you have finished, wipe off the glass, and we will begin all over again. One, two, three—ready!” and off went the alarm. Amid shouts of laughter the men and girls set to work with a-will; and-some~—of the results of the attempts at artistic drawing were ludicrous in the extreme.
