Entering by door in the long ex,
terror side of the rectangle, we ascend
few steps and emerge into a great
composing room, taking up the full
length Of the building, and here between
two Winks we may see five hundred
men setting type at the case. At the
end Of the room nearest us is the office
of the printer and his clerks, and in the
small private Office in the corner we find
Mr.. Defrees, busily engaged.
He is a plainly dressed, quiet man
nered man, a printer by trade, not
above forty-fve years old, smooth faced,
gray eyed, with a business look about
him, and he is an Indianiau, long pub
Usher of the indianapolis Journal. By
birth he is a Kentuckiau, of the state
which produced Blair and Rives, the
pioneers of political printing in Washing
ton.
The salary of Mr.. Defrees is So, 5S3.
He is allowed four clerks and amessen-
ger, aud he must superinteud the entire
business of the Office, while all contracts
for paper, etc, are made by commit
tee of the Senate and the House. The
public printing Office is therefore re-
Iieved from all the imputations of cor
ruption which used to attach to It, and
the character of the printer himself has
never suffered imputation. He is one

| In one of his recent lectures, Profess
sor Stillman, the younger, alluded 10
the discovery Of the skeleton Of an en-
oFmous 6zlid, of eighty feet. From
this the professor inferrs, as no living
specimen of such magnitude has been
found, that the species which It repre-
sents has become degenerated. The
verify Of his position he endeavored to
enforce by an anusiOn tothe wen-knoun
existence of giants in Olden times. The
following is the list on which this sin
gular hypothesis is based:
The Giant exhibited at Rouep. in
1880, the professor says measured near
ly eighteen feet,
ten feet
The giant Galabra, brought from
Arabia to Rome, under Claudius Cesar,
was ten feet high.
Fannum, who lived in the time of
Eugene H., measured III feet.
The Chevalier Scrogg, in bis voyage
TO the Peak Of Tenerife, found in one
Of the esVerns Of that mountain, the
head of Gunicb, who had sixty teeth
apd was not less than fifteen feet high.
The giant Ferregus, slain BY Orlando
nephew Of Charlemagne, was twenty
eight feet high.
In 1914, near St German. was
found the tomb of the giant Isorept
who was not less than thirty feet high.
In 1880, near RoueB, was found a
skeleton whose skull held a busbel Of
corn, and who was nineteen feet high.
The giant Bacart was TWENTY-FIVE
feet high; his thigh bones were found
IN 1904, near the river Moderi.
In 1923, near the castle in Daupbipe
q tomb was found 30 feet long, I6 wide
and 9ihigh, on which was cut in grav
stone these words: 'Kintolochus Rex
The skeleton was found entire 25I feet
long, 10 feet across the shoulders, and
5 feet from the breast bone to the baeS.
Near Palermo, in Sicily, in 1916,
wss found the skeleton Of a giant thirty
feet long. .
Near MazrinO, in Sicily, in 1915, was
found the skeleton of giant thirty feet
high, the head was the size of a hogs-
head, and each of his teeth weighed
i've ounces. o
we have no doubt that there were
giants in those days, and the past per-
laps was more prolific in producing
hem than the present But the his
ory ofgiants during the olden time was
lot more remarkable than that Of
iwarfs,. several Of whom were even
mailer than the Thumbs and Nuts Of
,ur own time.

No enlightened government in this
age can do without public documents,
but the whole system Of distributing
them should be changed. There are,
perhaps, 5000, odd counties in the
United States. Let government con
tent itself with presenting a copy Of
every public work to these, and let it
sell the rest to the people at cost price.
OF the agricultural report the extra
ordinary number of 22O, 900 copies have
been ordered for last year alone, at a
cost of SISO,OOo or about eighty-Gve
cents copy. This cost is enough to
pay the President, Vice President all
the Cabinet officers, the Speaker of the
House, and two-thirds of the first
class foreign ministers. In these re-
ports there are 450,OO0 ponnds of pa
per, or 225 tons, enough to take e25
double horse wagons to pull them.

Rosser five dollars he could go from Victor
Nuller's saloon on King street to the Brew

and Jake hobbled in and won the race and

Several other ambitious hoppers tried to
perform the same feat but all slipped up.

not become one of the most successful BUSH

perity to the new firm. The proprietors, re-
spectively, invite their friends to call at the

New PUBLICATIoNs.-Mr. John G.. Fox
has laid upon our table some new publica-
tons just received and for sale by him.
Among them are the Overland Monthly,
being No. l of the new Pacific Coast Maya
zine, published by A. Roman & Co., San
Francisco, neatly printed, in style and size
similar to the Atlantic Magazine. 1t has
an attractive table of contents, and on its
cover an illustration of grizzly crossing the
track Of the Pacific railroad, pausing for
moment to look at the approaching engine
We have also the latest numbers Of Harper's
and Leslie's Illustrated Weekly newspa-
pers, Harper's Bazaar, the New York
Ledger, New York Day Book, and Harper's
Magazine for July. Mr.. Fox has also pre-
sented for our inspection two Novels recently
published, reprinted in pamphlet form from
Littell's Living Age, entitled, respectively,
: All for Creed" and Linda Tressel."
Their original publication in that magazine
5 assurance that they possess more than
ordinary interest to lovers of romance.
Among the new books received from the
EAST we notice "The War between the
states" by Alexander H. Stephens, being
he political views of the late Vice President
f the Southern Confederacy.

The SIERRA SEMINARY.-Thise xcellen,

ladies as instructors, and is worthy the
patronage SO generously extended to it.
The pupils exhibited the evidences Of careful
whice day ended the school session. We
are informed by the Principals that the
Summer term will commence on the LIST day
Of August next. We noticed q large num-
Der of the friends of education present who
were much pleased at the admirable manner
in which the exercises were conducted. The
grammar class gave promise Of excellence,
while the examinations in geography and
arithmetic were most satisfactory. Indeed
the exercises as whole deserve our highest
commentator. The examinations were fol-
lowed by some excellent recitations. We
would like to print the names of our young
friends who particularly distinguished them.
selves, but cannot find room. We were
greatly pleased, however, with the delivery Of
the following choice selections: EASTER
Eggs" young America" one Of Mrs.
Caudle's most effectual lectures to "that
brute Caudle;" Saxe's des ption of Miss
McBride's pride, and the beautiful poem
" Over the River" to which we add in the
same category of excellence the famine
scene from "Hiawatha," "The Silver
Land" "The Prairie" Evangeline,"
Genius of Liberty" " National Banner"
and many others. Let US say to the pupils
that although we are unable to publish their
names, the fact of their having afforded |
genuine pleasure to their friends on the oc-
casion referred to should be a sufficient re-
ward and also stimulant to still further eff |
forts in accomplishing polished education
We are very proud of the Sierra Seminary,
lis teachers and its scholars, and we trust
they will always continue to merit the es-
TEEN and friendship of our people. The
institute is a cre2 it to ii concerned and de-
serves, as it surely is receiving, the kindly re-
of discerning public.
