These are now dead issues; but we can learn how to face the live issues of the present by studying in good faith how men faced these dead issues of the past. We must act with wisdom or else our adherence to right will be mere sound and fury without substance; and we must act high mindedly or else our wisdom will in the long run prove to be but folly in the eyes of the just and the far-sighted. Our policy must be such as will secure material prosperity to the nation; for exactly as a man cannot be ‘a good citizen unless by his work he is able to keep himself and those dependent upon him from want, soa nation can count for little until it has the power which is based on physical well being.

REDDING, March 15—As the Oregon Express, due in San Francisco this moroing, was running at the-rate of forty-five miles an hour, at a point thirteen miles south of here at midnight last night, the engineer and fireman both saw that they were bearing down upon a washout, three rail lengthe of track being without ties. The uneupported raile were not seen antil the pilot wae almost upon them. The horrified crew applied the brakes and waited for the catastrophe they felt sure would occur. Wonderfally enough, the entire train, with the exception of the last Pullman, paseed succesefully over the washed stretch of tract before the train could be stopped. The last car stopped on the unsupported track and toppled over. No owe was bart. The passengers of the derailed car were transferred to other cars and the train proceeded. Severe Storm. Eureka, Oal , March 15.—The present storm is the severest that has visited Humboldt county for years. It has been raining incessently since the 2nd of February, daring which month there was a precipitation of over 16 foches, The rainfall at the present time is four inches in excess of that at the same time last year. In consequence all the streams are badly swol: len, while many have overflowed their banke and caused much damage, ‘lore Riots. Disturbances of strikers are not nearly as grave as an individual disorder of the system. Overwork, loss of sleep, nervous tension will be followed by atter collapse, unless a reliable remedy is immediately employed. There’s nothing so efficient to cure disorders of the Liver or Kidneys as Electric Bitters. It’s a wonder ul tonic, and effective nervine and the greatest all around medicine for ran down systems. It dispele Nervousness, Rheumatism and Neuralgis and expele Malaris germs. Only 80c, and satisfaction gugranteed by W. D. Vinton, Druggiat. General Kuropatkin bas started: for the Far East where ‘he will institute army reforms, On the eve of battle ig not an opportune moment to reform jan army, Bach of the Little Men Confident of Besting the Other. Two more confident little men than Young Oor ett and Jimmy Britt could hardly be found in a day’s journey. When the gong taps on the night of March 265th at the new Woodward’s Pavilion in San Francisco each of this pair of game boxers will step into the center of the ring with the absolute conviction in his own mind that he ie master cf the other. It {isa favorite phrase of the press agent to say, “each contestant is confident.” Ino this partioulat instance the confidence is proven in advance. When _ Corbett made the original match he was looking for a shade the best of it. He argued that he was champion and as such should have a little extra out of the money, so Britt was forced to take a forty per cent lover’s end, and split the money in two equal parts if: he should win. Anything to get the match was Britt’s way of looking at it. The more: Oorbett thought of his bargain the less he liked it. He is an avaricious chap and, not being able to see where the Native Son has a possible chance to beat him, sent for Britt and offered to make a new deel, splitting the proceeds on the basis of 65 per cent tothe winner and 85 to the loser. Oorbett was amazed when Jimmy jumped at the bait. He need not have been far the Californian is just as confident of winning as his opponent and the revised schedule is vastiy to his benefit. In substance Corbett bets Britt 15 per cent against 5 per cent that he will win the “contest of the century” or three to one. The one thing developed beyond qaestion ie the overwhelming confidence of each. Corbett bas Tim McGrath and Harry Tathill to supervise his training, bat he is a fighter who does not take kindly to advice. He prefers to be bosg of his own camp and does pretty much as ‘he likes. It is different with Britt. He bas gone to an extra expense of $500 to have the services of the famous “Spider” Kelly at his quarters. Kelly does not lift a floger to.earn the $500, He merely sits around while Jimmy exercises and adds a few words of wisdom during the daily boxing bouts Britt baoge on every utterance. He is paying good money for good advice and getting benefit for every cent of it. ‘Bap Francisco is agog over the coming battle. So great has the interest grown that the Hayes Valley Club Management expects to sell every one of the 7,500 hundred seate at prices ranging from $2 to $20. The sale will open on March 18th, one week before the contest, but out of town orders mailed before that date will be given the preference. lier Testimony. A Methodist ‘clergyman who‘ officiated in town not long ago vouches for this story. He has an interesting fiveyear-old granddaughter. At prayer meeting he asked the congregation to rise and give personal testimony; and he was agreeably surprised to find his granddaughter among those who gave experiences. She said: “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” At the parsonage later in the evening the clergyman kissed his grandchild and said that the happiest moment of his 1.%e was when bie darling arose and shamed the older members by giving her testimony, It was such as she who made bad men good, he added. The child listened attentively to the eulogy. Then she said: “Well, I just had to do it. Didn't want to stand there like w darn fool and say nussen.” — Redding Searchlight. Tired of Life. Los ANGELus, March 15 — George Hocknell, President of the Hercules Oil Refining Com pany, and part owner in several other large business enterprises in Los Angeles and Southern Oalifornia, is lying at the home of bis ranch foreman, at Ontario, suffering from a dangerous bullet wound in the throat fired by bis own hand with suicidal intent. While lying on the ground at bis ranch, he pulled a pistol from his pocket and fired two bulthrough bis hat, failing to injure bin, the second taking effect in his throat and producing a serious wound. It is not expected, however, that the shot will prove fatel. Hocknell has been a sufferer from sciatic rheumatism fer ten years, and it is thought his continued ill health preyed upon his mind and led to the attempt to end bis life.

It Is Mainly an Adjunct to Life en i the Outside. The father and mother in Paris eat at home when they do not eat out, but absolutely x20 informal social intercourse invades the apartment, which ig more than anything else a sort of factory in which is produced whatever the family needs for life outside. A vast _amount of sewing is done here. French girls of even wealthy parents, after they finish school, attend courses of dressmaking and millinery and to a great extent the industry which turns out the French woman as 4;model of good dressing, to be ‘followed. by the world, is carried on by the women of the family in what would: be the home if the French knew the meaning of the word. ; A reception day is rigorously kept, and much entertaining at dinner and dejeuner may be done, but always of a formal character. A person having the penetrating qualities of a book agent might venture to try “dropping in” on a French woman on a day when she is not regularly receiving, but in the natural course of ordinary social expertence in Paris this would never happen. says Flora McDonald Thompson in Harper’s Bazar. Such order of living readily permits great economy. One has not to waste time, good clothes or house room in daily preparation for the unexpected guest. Six days of the week a French woman muy run her sewing machine in the middle of her salon if she likes, secure from the interruption of chance callers. It is said that the chief function of the petit salon of a Paris apartment is to provide storage room for ball gowns which on reception days are’ taken down from the chandelier and locked up in a bedroom till the guests have departed. WEDDING PRESENTS. Some Hints About How and What and When to Send. It is a golden rule to send your wed. ding gift in good time, the first to ar rive being much more appreciated than that which is one of the many pouring in from all quarters during the last week. By adhering to this rule you are also saved the annoyance of hearing that the saltcellars are charming, the third Set already received. A month before the wedding day 1s not too early to send the present, which should be accompanied by a visiting card, to be placed on the gift when displayed among the others. The package should be addressed to the bride if you are intimate with both the happy couple, and to the bride’s house, addressed to the bridegroom, if it is he with whom you are best acquainted. ' Most people wish to give something novel, useful and pretty. The future circumstances of the happy couple should infiuence the choice. ' If they are going abroad, do not give anything unsuitable to the requirements of the climate or so cumbersome that packing and conveying it to its destination will amount. to half the value of the present. : larly well off, it is only kind to select some useful present. In these days, when artistic taste is shown in all the Becessaries of life, this should not be difficult. If the happy couple are likely to receive many presents, it is safe to give something which will not be amiss if received in duplicate, such as silver Sweetmeat baskets for the dinner table or a set of afternoon teaspoons or a bronze or china ornament. setciataatieinlens The Saliva, : The poisons of some of the. common and also some of the most loathsome diseases are frequengjy contained in the mouth. In such case anything that is moistened by the saliva of the in fected person may, if it touches. the lips of another, convey disease. The more direct the contact the greater the danger. It is believed that much can be done to prevent contagion by teaching habits of cleanliness. But if such instruction is to be effectual it must be continuous. The teacher in the public school should notice and correct violations of these rules ag habitually as violations of the more formal school If the recipients will not be particu.’ a Superior Court. ‘The following business was traneacted in the Superfor Qourt today Judge F, T.

The last car stopped on the unsupported track and toppled over. No owe was bart. The passengers of the derailed car were transferred to other cars and the train proceeded. Severe Storm. Eureka, Oal , March 15.—The present storm is the severest that has visited Humboldt county for years. It has been raining incessently since the 2nd of February, daring which month there was a precipitation of over 16 foches, The rainfall at the present time is four inches in excess of that at the same time last year. In consequence all the streams are badly swol: len, while many have overflowed their banke and caused much damage, ‘lore Riots. Disturbances of strikers are not nearly as grave as an individual disorder of the system. Overwork, loss of sleep, nervous tension will be followed by atter collapse, unless a reliable remedy is immediately employed. There’s nothing so efficient to cure disorders of the Liver or Kidneys as Electric Bitters. It’s a wonder ul tonic, and effective nervine and the greatest all around medicine for ran down systems. It dispele Nervousness, Rheumatism and Neuralgis and expele Malaris germs. Only 80c, and satisfaction gugranteed by W. D. Vinton, Druggiat. General Kuropatkin bas started: for the Far East where ‘he will institute army reforms, On the eve of battle ig not an opportune moment to reform jan army, Bach of the Little Men Confident of Besting the Other. Two more confident little men than Young Oor ett and Jimmy Britt could hardly be found in a day’s journey. When the gong taps on the night of March 265th at the new Woodward’s Pavilion in San Francisco each of this pair of game boxers will step into the center of the ring with the absolute conviction in his own mind that he ie master cf the other. It {isa favorite phrase of the press agent to say, “each contestant is confident.” Ino this partioulat instance the confidence is proven in advance. When _ Corbett made the original match he was looking for a shade the best of it. He argued that he was champion and as such should have a little extra out of the money, so Britt was forced to take a forty per cent lover’s end, and split the money in two equal parts if: he should win. Anything to get the match was Britt’s way of looking at it. The more: Oorbett thought of his bargain the less he liked it. He is an avaricious chap and, not being able to see where the Native Son has a possible chance to beat him, sent for Britt and offered to make a new deel, splitting the proceeds on the basis of 65 per cent tothe winner and 85 to the loser. Oorbett was amazed when Jimmy jumped at the bait. He need not have been far the Californian is just as confident of winning as his opponent and the revised schedule is vastiy to his benefit. In substance Corbett bets Britt 15 per cent against 5 per cent that he will win the “contest of the century” or three to one. The one thing developed beyond qaestion ie the overwhelming confidence of each. Corbett bas Tim McGrath and Harry Tathill to supervise his training, bat he is a fighter who does not take kindly to advice. He prefers to be bosg of his own camp and does pretty much as ‘he likes. It is different with Britt. He bas gone to an extra expense of $500 to have the services of the famous “Spider” Kelly at his quarters. Kelly does not lift a floger to.earn the $500, He merely sits around while Jimmy exercises and adds a few words of wisdom during the daily boxing bouts Britt baoge on every utterance. He is paying good money for good advice and getting benefit for every cent of it. ‘Bap Francisco is agog over the coming battle. So great has the interest grown that the Hayes Valley Club Management expects to sell every one of the 7,500 hundred seate at prices ranging from $2 to $20. The sale will open on March 18th, one week before the contest, but out of town orders mailed before that date will be given the preference. lier Testimony. A Methodist ‘clergyman who‘ officiated in town not long ago vouches for this story. He has an interesting fiveyear-old granddaughter. At prayer meeting he asked the congregation to rise and give personal testimony; and he was agreeably surprised to find his granddaughter among those who gave experiences. She said: “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.” At the parsonage later in the evening the clergyman kissed his grandchild and said that the happiest moment of his 1.%e was when bie darling arose and shamed the older members by giving her testimony, It was such as she who made bad men good, he added. The child listened attentively to the eulogy. Then she said: “Well, I just had to do it. Didn't want to stand there like w darn fool and say nussen.” — Redding Searchlight. Tired of Life. Los ANGELus, March 15 — George Hocknell, President of the Hercules Oil Refining Com pany, and part owner in several other large business enterprises in Los Angeles and Southern Oalifornia, is lying at the home of bis ranch foreman, at Ontario, suffering from a dangerous bullet wound in the throat fired by bis own hand with suicidal intent.

It Is Mainly an Adjunct to Life en i the Outside. The father and mother in Paris eat at home when they do not eat out, but absolutely x20 informal social intercourse invades the apartment, which ig more than anything else a sort of factory in which is produced whatever the family needs for life outside. A vast _amount of sewing is done here. French girls of even wealthy parents, after they finish school, attend courses of dressmaking and millinery and to a great extent the industry which turns out the French woman as 4;model of good dressing, to be ‘followed. by the world, is carried on by the women of the family in what would: be the home if the French knew the meaning of the word. ; A reception day is rigorously kept, and much entertaining at dinner and dejeuner may be done, but always of a formal character. A person having the penetrating qualities of a book agent might venture to try “dropping in” on a French woman on a day when she is not regularly receiving, but in the natural course of ordinary social expertence in Paris this would never happen. says Flora McDonald Thompson in Harper’s Bazar. Such order of living readily permits great economy. One has not to waste

time, good clothes or house room in daily preparation for the unexpected guest. Six days of the week a French woman muy run her sewing machine in the middle of her salon if she likes, secure from the interruption of chance callers. It is said that the chief function of the petit salon of a Paris apartment is to provide storage room for ball gowns which on reception days are’ taken down from the chandelier and locked up in a bedroom till the guests have departed. WEDDING PRESENTS. Some Hints About How and What and When to Send. It is a golden rule to send your wed. ding gift in good time, the first to ar rive being much more appreciated than that which is one of the many pouring in from all quarters during the last week. By adhering to this rule you are also saved the annoyance of hearing that the saltcellars are charming, the third Set already received. A month before the wedding day 1s not too early to send the present, which should be accompanied by a visiting card, to be placed on the gift when displayed among the others. The package should be addressed to the bride if you are intimate with both the happy couple, and to the bride’s house, addressed to the bridegroom, if it is he with whom you are best acquainted. ' Most people wish to give something novel, useful and pretty. The future circumstances of the happy couple should infiuence the choice. ' If they are going abroad, do not give anything unsuitable to the requirements of the climate or so cumbersome that packing and conveying it to its destination will amount. to half the value of the present. : larly well off, it is only kind to select some useful present. In these days, when artistic taste is shown in all the Becessaries of life, this should not be difficult. If the happy couple are likely to receive many presents, it is safe to give something which will not be amiss if received in duplicate, such as silver Sweetmeat baskets for the dinner table or a set of afternoon teaspoons or a bronze or china ornament. setciataatieinlens The Saliva, : The poisons of some of the. common and also some of the most loathsome diseases are frequengjy contained in the mouth.
