Telephonic communication. with Downieville over the new Sunset line from this city, which had been inter>Yapted for two or three days, was restored Saturday evéning and messages are now being transmitted as usual, The wires bad been broken in four places this side of Camptonville, and lineman O'Connell, who was. sent up to repair them, says that in each instance the break had been occasioned by dead tree limbs falling on the wire. Forest fires in the past have. killed many trees in the country through which the line extends, and high winds, such as. accompanied last week’s storm, cause the brittle limbs to fall. The Sunset. management will in the Spring brash out the trees along its line and then there will be but few if any interruptions. The Western Union telegraph line to Sierra county, which was also broken during last week, is still down.

G. CO, Route as Pronounced, There are humerous excuses for the pronunciation of the word route, and @ man may hardly go amiss to choose his own style. “Down south they say always rowt. In the north, among the educated classes, we hear root. Here also we hear, lower down, the hyphenated Americans, rut. say Fut. The Se ny Wechsbe aivas tho premio: tion as rowt, with an admission eer a root. We have adopted root because . of a French leaning. The word rut, meaning a deep track -in a roadway, cut by the rim of a wheel, is simply a contraction of route and rout. The Century dictionary says root or rowt, preference for root. We also say rootine for routine; why not, therefore, root for route?’ Rowtine would sound funny.—New York Press, He Didnt Like Pledges, Judge Martin Grover of Troy, N. ¥. was at one time approached by a young citizen who wished to be nominated to -‘the state assembly. The shrewd old judge had certain doubts about him, which he expressed somewhat freely, and yet he was willing to afford him a trial. He therefore addressed the asPpirant in this way: “Young man, if you will give me yyour word that you won’t steal when ‘you get to Albany, I’ll see what kin be dione about sendin you there.” “Judge .Grover,” replied the. young man, drawing himself up with great dignity, “I go to Albany unpledged or I @on’t go at all.” Wood Tar. It 1s curious to note that wood tar is prepared just as it was in the fourth . century, B. 0. A bark is chosen and 8 hole dug, into which the wood is placed, covered with turf. A fire is lighted underneath, and the tar slowly @rips into the barrels placed to receive it. er A Chinese Custom. + : .

The thickness of his brogue secured for a recent arrival from the Emerald Isle a ride of several hundred miles at the expense of the Pennsylvania ratlroad. His destination was Boston, and at the Broad street station he asked for a ticket to the Hub, . The +ticket seller was unable to determine whether it was Boston or Washington the man wanted to reach, but finally sold him a ticket for the latter city,and a few hours later he found himself in the national capital.As he was unable to read, the mistake was not discovered until he reached -Washington, and to complicate matters he had not sufficient funds to purchase a ticket to Boston. He presented his case to the railroad officials at Washington, and they, put-. s ting him to a test, were unable to dis. tinguish from his pronunciation of Washington and Boston any material difference, thus exonerating the clerk at the Broad street station, in this city. for his érror. The facts of the case being laid before the general passenger department, the man with the brogue was forwarded to his proper destination.— Philadelphia Record.

The writer says: “An acquaintance of mine, who lives up north, has among others 9f the feathered tribe a little bantam cock. A few weeks ago he noticed that it was looking the worse for a slight difference of epinion with a canine friend, but did not examine it closely till his mother’s and sisters’ vociferations brought him in a hurry. There was the bantam picking away at corn, but the corn was dropping from a rent in the bird’s shest just as fast as it was lifted. Nut wanting to kill the bird, my friend got a needle .and some — horsehair. and stitched up the tear, with the result that the bird now is as good as new.” On your Sewer Work if and sare money: We To Test Wall Papers. 3 Arsenic is very often present in the . pigment used for wall papers, and as every one knows, if one covers ones Let.

It is important, therefore, to select wall papers which do not contain arsenic, and the method of testing them {s simple in the extreme. Take a piece of the paper and light it, and if arsenic be present you will notice an odor like that of garlic. Do not inhale the smoke. Another way of testing the paper is to pour over it a little diluted hydrochloric-acid. If the greens in the pattern become blue in this treatment it is because they contain’ arsenic_—Home Notes.
