DEATH OF TOD ‘CASWELL Who Was Formerly a Resident 0/ This City. A dispatch was received today by I J. Rolfe announcing the death of Judge Thomas H. Caswell, at San Francisco this morning. Judge Caswell was well-known to every early resident of this city. He was District Jadge of this county in the 50’s, and in the 70’s removed to San Francisco where he has resided ever since. He bers of the Masonic Order in this State, and for many years was the Grand Lecturer. Judge Caswell was highly esteemed by all who knew him, and the old-timers will deeply regret to learn of his decease, p mame mm innererme rae .

In McCartie’s case the visit stretched to nearly double that time. After tight or nine years, however, his kinsman got a little tired of his guest and let him know of his old mansion’s proposed renovation and that he had signed a contract for having it painted from garret to cellar: “By George,” said Jerry, “it’s formaate that I don’t object to the smell of paint, and it will be well to have some one to keep an eye on the painters now that the wall fruit is ripening.” Some months passed. Then his host informed him that he was going to be married, adding, “I thought I’d tell you in good time, so that you could make leisurely preparations to go, as the lady and you may not hit it off as well as you and I do.” With tearful eyes Jerry grasped his sousin’s hand, saying: “Oh, Dan, dear, you have my hearty thanks for your consideration; but, dear, dear boy, surely if you can put up with her I can.” The Rogues’ Refuge. There is one corner of Central Amertca that is at present a perfect paradise erime. It is a place where the outcasts of the world’s society rule the land of their adoption and where the officials of the government protect all thieves that come to them and make it dangerous for any detective to molest them. This is the republic of Honduras, one of the least advanced of the states of South or Central America. Honduras ‘ndeed is a curious mixture of jungle ind gigantic forest, of cocoa and of ‘ubber:trees, of bugs, vampires, snakes 1nd crocodiles—of all manner of things that creep and crawl and sting and bite; a region where-life-in the daytime is &€ mockery and at night one feels as though sleeping in red pepper. Here, in every hamlet and city, are to be found men from different lands, mostly outlaws from their own country. Chicago, Boston, New York and Philadelphia all furnish their quota. England, France, Italy and even far away Russia have their share. They make no attempt at concealment, bear the names they were born to bear and go along about their business as if the laws of their own country had not de elared them outcasts.—London Expresg. Naming the Chinese Baby. in Ohina girls are called instead of Mary Ann or Marguerite “Spring Peach,” “Cloudy Moon,” “Celestial Happiness” or what may not be considered so nice, “Come-along-a-littlebrother”. or “Add-a-ydunger-brother’ or “Lead-everlasting-younger brothers.” The latter means that a son would have been more welcome than a little “go away child,” as they call the girls. They belong to the family of the husbands to be and do not count in the family of their birth, so that when » Chinaman is asked, “How many children have you?’ he makes no count of the girls, although he may have ten. The boys only he counts, and his reply will Indicate only the number of boys. He gives his sons such names as “Ancestral Piety,” “Ancestral Knowledge,” “Practical Industry,” “Able to Sing Out,” “Second God of Learning,” “Excite the Clouds,” “Beginning of Joy,” “All Virtue Complete.” The little slaves who begin life as household drudges before they graduate lower answer to such names as “As You Please,” “Sparrows’ Crumbs,” “Joy to Serve,” “Your Happiness,” “Not For Me.”— Kansas City Journal. A Little Mistake In Medals, The chief officer of: a Yorkshire yeoinanry regiment while congratulating one ‘of the troops en its appearance made a stirring allusion to the medals worn by some army veterans in the ranks.One.of_the.men,a native ef. Wharfedale, afterward went home in a3 very thoughtful frame of mind, and next morning he came on parade with ‘everal medals on his breast. Said the officer, “] didn’t know you had been tn the regulars.” “No; . aln’t,” said the man. “Well, how about the medals, then, ‘ny good fellow? They can't be yours.” The man promptly answered: “Can’t they? Aye, but they be. My old coo won ‘em all at Otley show. Tuner Wharfedale. Not Available, When at 8 o’clock one morning Mrs. Newman was convinced that she heard a burglar In the parlor, she cautiously “Very well,” said Mr. Newman, witb a drowsy patience born of ‘frequent similar alarms. “TI’ll get my revolver from the drawer and go down and investigate.” “But, William,” said his wife, with a sudden gasping remembrance, “your Pistol isn’t here, dear. I—I tied it up with ribbons for an ornament under your father’s sword today!”~Youth’s . Pmspemon was one of the most prominent mem-. THOSE METEORS, The Side-Tracked Display May be Seen Wednesday Night. A London cablegram saya the expected shower of meteors. on Wednesday night is awaited with the keenest interest in astronomical circles. Astronomers say that the group of meteors may escape actual encounter with the earth by passing more than 1,500, miles distant from us, on the side near, est the sun, But that there is sufficient doubt in the matter to encourage strong hopes that the meteors will reappear and present one of the most beautifal and striking phenomenas of nature. fo weceenesnoee reer od A Noiseless’ Ring Gume, The small rubber rings that are used ® every household with which to seal oreserve jars may be made the means 2 much amusement when a lively zame is desired for the amusement of friends. First obtain a smooth head of a flour or sugar barrel and see that the pieces are all fastened together, forming a circular board, or any smooth doard about a square foot in size will ¢erve the purpose. Procure ten coat hooks of medium pize and secure them into the board~ ind mark above each hock its number, ranging from No. 1 to No. 10. A hole may be made in the unner end of the board or a screw eye inserted by which io hang it upon a nail in the wall. No. 10 is a sort of a “bullseye,” and zach player, having three of the rubber tings, takes turns in: throwing thém from a position about ten feet away, endeavoring to “hook” as Thany on the board as possible. A‘score is kept of the points gained-by each player, the gne first getting 100 points being the winner. However, exactly 100 points must be made. For instance, if a player has 99 he has to work for “‘hook No. i,” as any other hock would carry him over the mark. This difficulty adds to the interest of the game. oS An advantage of the game Is that no noise is made nor damage done by the tings, and it mag be improvised by any boy or girl.—_New York Sun. 4 Misunderstanding, Mr. G. W. Steevens in his book, “In {ndia,” says that the first sight of that country is amazing and stupefying, because everything is so noticeable that you notice nothing. The common crows are blue, the oxen have humps. It is a new life in a new world. In describing the native life he gives this story of their indifference to punishment: A simple ryot the other day had said goodby to his relatives and was pinioned, when suddenly he asked to speak again to his brother. “Recollect,” he said, “it’s 20 kawa surs of barley that man owes me, not dawa. ,Surs,” which are smaller. Then ' be turned and was hanged without moving a muscle. Another man, a Pathan, was being hanged, when the rope broke. The warder bade him go up on to the scaffold again, but he objected. __ “No,” he said; “I was sentenced to be hanged, and hanged I’ve been!” “Not so, friend,” argued the warder. “You were sentenced to be hanged until you were dead, and you're not dead!” It was a new view! ee the Pathan, and he turned to the, superintendent, “Is that right, sahib?” “Yes; that’s right.” ~* ¢. “Very well. I didn’t understand.” And he went composedly up the steps and was banged again. Worshiping a Turtle, At a place called Kotron, on the French Ivory Coast, the natives be lieve that to eat or destroy a turtle would mean death to the guilty one or sickness among the family. The fetich men, of which there are plenty, declare that years ago a man went to sea fishing. In the night his canoe was thrown upon the beach empty. Three days afterward a turtle came ashore at the same place with the man on its back alive and well. Since that time they have never eaten or destroyed one of that species, although they enjoy other species. If one happens now to be washed ashore, there is a great commotion in the town. Firstly, the women sit down and start singing and beating sticks;. next a small piece of white cleth (color must be white) is placed on the turtle’s back. Food is then prepared and placed on the cloth, generally plantains, rice and palm oil. Then, amid a lot more singing, Gancing and antics of the fetich people, it is carried back into the sea and goes on its way rejoicing. Imprisoned by an Ostrich, A guardsman-in the reserve of officers who is better known for his swagger than his brains had an unfortunate experience in South Africa. He was stationed about 100 miles from Cape Town at a remount depot. One morning a farmer stopped him as he was taking a constitutional and Warned him against crossing-an inelos-}-~ ure containing a cock ostrich which had become bad tempered. The guardsmap said that no ostrich ever hatched would turn him out of his way and went on unmoved. As he bad not returned home four hours afterward his brother officers were alarmed and sent out search parties. hat was their surprise to discover him lying on his back unhurt, with a cock ostrich sitting on his chest. The bird had knocked him down each time he had tried to rise, but could not burt him while he lay flat on bis back. Yet leave his enemy he declined to do and therefore sat quietly upon him until driven off by the rescue dae ts Bros! fon Mxpress. eae a eae Adjourned In Due Form, : “Mr. Nevergo,” the young woman said, suppressing a yawn, “when the business of a meeting is ended what is the parliamentary form for bringing the proceedings to a close?’ “Somebody moves that the meeting . . adjourn,” replied the young man, “and then”— “Well; if you'll move,” abe. inter. ar 5 tel Sette tales Spoak at Odd Fellows Hall.

Accent, “One day Lord Morris was sitting at the Four Courts as lord chief justice of Ireland when a young barrister from the north rose nervously to make his first motion. The judge had declared that no one listening to himself would ever take him for anything but an Irishman, which was perfectly correct. But Galway could not understand Antrim. The lord chief. justice leaned ever to ask the associate where the barrister hailed from. “County Antrim,” was the response. Then asked his lordship of the: offieial, “Did ye iver come across sich a frightful accint in the course of ™ leife?”’ Gaslight on Gems. The appearance of all fine gems is improved by gaslight.

Honduras ‘ndeed is a curious mixture of jungle ind gigantic forest, of cocoa and of ‘ubber:trees, of bugs, vampires, snakes 1nd crocodiles—of all manner of things that creep and crawl and sting and bite; a region where-life-in the daytime is &€ mockery and at night one feels as though sleeping in red pepper. Here, in every hamlet and city, are to be found men from different lands, mostly outlaws from their own country. Chicago, Boston, New York and Philadelphia all furnish their quota. England, France, Italy and even far away Russia have their share. They make no attempt at concealment, bear the names they were born to bear and go along about their business as if the laws of their own country had not de elared them outcasts.—London Expresg. Naming the Chinese Baby. in Ohina girls are called instead of Mary Ann or Marguerite “Spring Peach,” “Cloudy Moon,” “Celestial Happiness” or what may not be considered so nice, “Come-along-a-littlebrother”. or “Add-a-ydunger-brother’ or “Lead-everlasting-younger brothers.” The latter means that a son would have been more welcome than a little “go away child,” as they call the girls. They belong to the family of the husbands to be and do not count in the family of their birth, so that when » Chinaman is asked, “How many children have you?’ he makes no count of the girls, although he may have ten. The boys only he counts, and his reply will Indicate only the number of boys. He gives his sons such names as “Ancestral Piety,” “Ancestral Knowledge,” “Practical Industry,” “Able to Sing Out,” “Second God of Learning,” “Excite the Clouds,” “Beginning of Joy,” “All Virtue Complete.” The little slaves who begin life as household drudges before they graduate lower answer to such names as “As You Please,” “Sparrows’ Crumbs,” “Joy to Serve,” “Your Happiness,” “Not For Me.”— Kansas City Journal. A Little Mistake In Medals, The chief officer of: a Yorkshire yeoinanry regiment while congratulating one ‘of the troops en its appearance made a stirring allusion to the medals worn by some army veterans in the ranks..One.of_the.men,a native ef. Wharfedale, afterward went home in a3 very thoughtful frame of mind, and next morning he came on parade with ‘everal medals on his breast. Said the officer, “] didn’t know you had been tn the regulars.” “No; . aln’t,” said the man. “Well, how about the medals, then, ‘ny good fellow? They can't be yours.” The man promptly answered: “Can’t they? Aye, but they be. My old coo won ‘em all at Otley show. Tuner Wharfedale.

THOSE METEORS, The Side-Tracked Display May be Seen Wednesday Night. A London cablegram saya the expected shower of meteors. on Wednesday night is awaited with the keenest interest in astronomical circles. Astronomers say that the group of meteors may escape actual encounter with the earth by passing more than 1,500, miles distant from us, on the side near, est the sun, But that there is sufficient doubt in the matter to encourage strong hopes that the meteors will reappear and present one of the most beautifal and striking phenomenas of nature. fo weceenesnoee reer od A Noiseless’ Ring Gume, The small rubber rings that are used ® every household with which to seal oreserve jars may be made the means 2 much amusement when a lively zame is desired for the amusement of friends. First obtain a smooth head of a flour or sugar barrel and see that the pieces are all fastened together, forming a circular board, or any smooth doard about a square foot in size will ¢erve the purpose. Procure ten coat hooks of medium pize and secure them into the board~ ind mark above each hock its number, ranging from No. 1 to No. 10. A hole may be made in the unner end of the board or a screw eye inserted by which io hang it upon a nail in the wall. No. 10 is a sort of a “bullseye,” and zach player, having three of the rubber tings, takes turns in: throwing thém from a position about ten feet away, endeavoring to “hook” as Thany on the board as possible. A‘score is kept of the points gained-by each player, the gne first getting 100 points being the winner. However, exactly 100 points must be made. For instance, if a player has 99 he has to work for “‘hook No. i,” as any other hock would carry him over the mark. This difficulty adds to the interest of the game. oS An advantage of the game Is that no noise is made nor damage done by the tings, and it mag be improvised by any boy or girl.—_New York Sun. 4 Misunderstanding, Mr. G. W. Steevens in his book, “In {ndia,” says that the first sight of that country is amazing and stupefying, because everything is so noticeable that you notice nothing. The common crows are blue, the oxen have humps. It is a new life in a new world. In describing the native life he gives this story of their indifference to punishment: A simple ryot the other day had said goodby to his relatives and was pinioned, when suddenly he asked to speak again to his brother. “Recollect,” he said, “it’s 20 kawa surs of barley that man owes me, not dawa. ,Surs,” which are smaller. Then ' be turned and was hanged without moving a muscle. Another man, a Pathan, was being hanged, when the rope broke. The warder bade him go up on to the scaffold again, but he objected. __ “No,” he said; “I was sentenced to be hanged, and hanged I’ve been!” “Not so, friend,” argued the warder. “You were sentenced to be hanged until you were dead, and you're not dead!”

It was a new view! ee the Pathan, and he turned to the, superintendent, “Is that right, sahib?” “Yes; that’s right.” ~* ¢. “Very well. I didn’t understand.” And he went composedly up the steps and was banged again. Worshiping a Turtle, At a place called Kotron, on the French Ivory Coast, the natives be lieve that to eat or destroy a turtle would mean death to the guilty one or sickness among the family. The fetich men, of which there are plenty, declare that years ago a man went to sea fishing. In the night his canoe was thrown upon the beach empty. Three days afterward a turtle came ashore at the same place with the man on its back alive and well. Since that time they have never eaten or destroyed one of that species, although they enjoy other species. If one happens now to be washed ashore, there is a great commotion in the town. Firstly, the women sit down and start singing and beating sticks;. next a small piece of white cleth (color must be white) is placed on the turtle’s back. Food is then prepared and placed on the cloth, generally plantains, rice and palm oil. Then, amid a lot more singing, Gancing and antics of the fetich people, it is carried back into the sea and goes on its way rejoicing. Imprisoned by an Ostrich, A guardsman-in the reserve of officers who is better known for his swagger than his brains had an unfortunate experience in South Africa. He was stationed about 100 miles from Cape Town at a remount depot. One morning a farmer stopped him as he was taking a constitutional and Warned him against crossing-an inelos-}-~ ure containing a cock ostrich which had become bad tempered. The guardsmap said that no ostrich ever hatched would turn him out of his way and went on unmoved. As he bad not returned home four hours afterward his brother officers were alarmed and sent out search parties. hat was their surprise to discover him lying on his back unhurt, with a cock ostrich sitting on his chest. The bird had knocked him down each time he had tried to rise, but could not burt him while he lay flat on bis back.
