roErAkIAN on His TRAVELS

A VroErARIAS on His TRAvfLs.-Dr.
Bourne, a hygisnic physician Of San
Francisco, aged Cd, a strict vegetarian,
etc., left the City Hall. San Francisco,
at one minute A. ". On Monday, and
walked 10 San Jose, "a distance by tho
old stage road Of about "a miles. He
arrived in San Jose ut 5:55 p. NJ,
making the trip inside of nineteen
hours. He counted his steps for the
entire distance, and found that, on foot.
ing az tho result, on his arrival, that
he has taken l0l, 76s. In addition 10
his yeight-ls2 pounds-bs car
ried IN c7srcoat and a heavy camp
chair aud walking cane. The Doctor
neither eats meat, nor drinks tea,
coffee, or spirituoui liquors of any kind,
nor uses salt, pepper, vinegar, or any
other sort of condiments. For the
last three months he has sab.isted
almost wholly en- parched Ora An -four,
taking bis -four dry without say prepa-
ration whatever. Parchsd -four and a
small quantity of fruit constitute his
sole diet. His health is robust and hii
muscles firm. HI has certainly reduced
the science Of living to a very simple
problem. The total coat of such a diet
would not exceed i've cents peg day.
| What a saving this style Of living would
be over our present expensive method.
No groeers' or butchers bills to pay,
no cooking or house drudgsry of any
sort. A pound Of parched -four per
day to each individual is quite sufficient.
How perfectly simple and economical.
The family arises in the morning, per-
forms its nblutionI, and sits down to its
-four. Lunch and dinner the same.
How charming |! In time the word
hash" becomes obsolete; soup, pud.
ding aud pie gradually fade from the
language and the millennium will be
ushered in.-Sdn jose Mercury, Dec. 22d.

MO REPUTATION.

Tbs House Of Representatives In
Washington, on the lsth, was the scene
of considerable excitement over a speech
delivered by an Ohio Coppsrhssd named
Munger, ia which he boldly ndrocsted
a repudiation Of the national debt.
A soon q, he had concluded his
harsngue several leading Democrats
M.ssrs. Brooks, Kerr, Randall, Porter,
Cox, Woodward, Slocum aud others
denounced the speech, and placed them
selves squarely against reputation, and
stated that it was no part of the tsnsts
of tbs Democratic party. Immediately
after this General Garfield arose and
offered the following resolution:
Rssolred, Tha. the proposition, direct or
indirect, TO ~repudia.e any portion Of the debt
Of tie United States, is unworthy Of the
honor and good name OF the nation, and that
the House, without distinction Of party, sets
IL, seal Of condemnation on any and all such
propositions.
This resolution was promptly passed
yeas, 1913; nays, 1.-The negative being
cast by Jones, Of Kentucky. Munger,
the Ohio r%epudiator, lodged ont when
the vote was called, and coward.liks,
refused TO enter his name on tho record
as an endor,sr of what he had adyo-
Gated. We are especially grati6ed that
so many prominent Democrats set their
face, against the doctrine Of repudia-
ten. It settles tho question Of the
organization of a reputation party in
thi, country. An attempt at such a
thing can only bring odium and defeat
on all who may engage in it. The Pc
sition Of Congress, 10 smphatically de-.
clarsd, will do tn. country good at home
and abroad.

WINTER

Let poets rave Of Christmas mirth
And Christmas weather !: why, on earth,
Should I pursue their channel?
NY Christmas mirth's rheumatic pangs,
Nv Christmas weather only hangs
This scarecrow with more flannel.
Why, with those bells perpetual noise
So CLASH With others feelings? Joys
Like yours are only greedy.
Take hands to wiring, not ropes 20 pull
For empty bells, give bellies-ful
or food unto the needy.
Oh t! that ones springtime could return
The lips to kiss, the heart % yearn-
Spring season brief and sunny!
Instead OF winter, harsh and old,
When lips are withered, hearts are cold,
And comforts bought for money.
Alas, by these poor sticks I sit
And SILVER, while my feeble wit
The backward course is tracing,
To youths first spring, loves early prime.
No winter then lit was q time
Not bracing-but embracing.

FROM SACRAMENTO.
Man.,

A Sad aud Fatal Accident TO u Railroad
Man.
SACRAMENTO, December 24.-An acct
dent occurred about half.past 10 o'clock yes
terday morning, at the depot OF the Sasra-
mento Valley Railroad Company, to William
Osborn, q yardman at that point, from the
effects of which he died in the afternoon.
The freight platform is Of about the same
hight as the floor OF a car, and the track is so
close to 1t that the cars pass within about
ten or twelve inches OF the platform. Osborn
was in the act Of coupling two freight cars,
and was standing in the narrow space men
toned, and a yard or two from the end Of the
platform when the train started up. and I:
he could barely squeeze his body in between
the cars and the platform, he was-by the
moving of the cars-turned round and round
several times before the engineer knew Of
his danger, when the train was promptly
stopped. The unfortunate man was found to
be terribly crushed in the region Of the hips,
and was placed upon a litter and taken to
the railroad hospital. The injuries were such
that death ensued in a few hours. Deceased
was 3 single man, aged 80 years, and a ma
tive Of Morrill,, Maine.

DECLINING YEAR.-We find floating
around loose the following very beautiful
tribute to the declining year:
The year begins to tremble with decay,
Like an old man who leans upon o stan,
And In a graveyard reads the cpitaph
or oil his offspring who have passed away;
But vet soft breezes with his thin locks play,
Scattering his sadness with o jocund laugh,
While the great sun yet warm In hi. BEHALF.
And with his dart keeps winter still OF bay,
Yea. soothed and fattcred In full many ways,
Though all the Helds be bare and woodlands
serc,
Halfhidden from his sight BY thickening haze.
Serenely smiles the slow declining year: -
Like ono who has In goodness spent his days,
And waits his csming end without o fear.
