HERMANN, the celebrated magician, was
married recently. And his wife doesn't
have to get up at daylight to 60 to mar
ket. When she wants a dozen of eggs
she simply hands her husband the empty
egg-bag, and he produces them by sleight-
of-hand ; then he cooks an omlet in a
borrowed hat and converts a can Of saw
dust into that much white sugar., and a
similar cup filed with Clipped paper is
changed into hot coffee then he takes
the same hat, st;rs up its emptiness with
q magic wand, and. presto, change out
a loaf of bread, a fresh shad, two
pickles, one pie, a bucket of coal, a dish
of hash with natural hairs in it, and half
a dozen knives and forks. This is much
cheaper than going to market. But Mrs.
Hermann is not happy. When her hus-
band wants a gold dollar he mysteriously
picks it off the end of his wife's nose.
And she is dissatisfied because she can't
perform that trick herself.-Norristoaon

WHITE PINE NEWS
CLASP LIGHTLY.

Wild flowers die when warm close hands
Their fragile stems too eager seize;
Hold loosely, child. the light live wands
OF joy, that would wave free like these.
Touch gently the fine fairy things
That lean their sweet forms 'gainst the hour:
One harsh thought brushes bloom from wings
That coyIy fan Loves silver bower.
Clasp lightly what thy heart would keep
In dearest hope, in dearest fear
The Soft Wind wooes the May from sleep
What has rough March but April's tear?

around to see if there was one in the

running about as lively as any chicken of

Read Out.

Two of the Republican Congress
men appointed on the outrage COM
mittee-PHELPs, of New Jersey, and
FOSTER; of Ohio-have been excom-
municated. The bull was promulgated
by the National Republican, which is
known at Washington as "the Ad-
ministration kitchen instrument"
These two gentlemen dared to report
the truth about the Louisiana troubles
and as the truth did not make up such
q story as the President wished to
hear from that unfortunate State, the
White House organ denounced both
as recreant to their trust and Republi-
cans only in name, and furthermore
reads them out of the Republican
party. There is nothing either impor-
tant or significant in newspaper con-
demnation of politicians act. 1t is
daily occurrence and excites but
little comment when coming from the
ordinary party journal and levelled at
the ordinary act of the ordinary politi-
clan; but in this case the paper is the
recognized mouthpiece of the Presi-
dent, the act condemned one which all
honest men approve and the Congress
men denounced simple gentlemen who
performed what they believed to be
their duty in the premises. Yet the
Presidents organ expels them from
the party with the assertion that they
are traitors to party principles, to
party friends and to the policy which
alone can secure the success of the
party. This is significant, and means
that committees must report, not in
accordance with the facts, but as the
President wishes.

New Telegraph Line.

The announcement that the railroad
company have ordered a completion of
their telegraph line to this city as soon
as the work can be done, is gratifying
news to the people of Los Angeles
valley. There is but little over one
hundred miles of line to build, and as
the poles and other material can be
landed at either end of the road-Te-
hachape Pass and San Fernando-the
greatest distance material will have to
be hauled by teams will not exceed
fifty miles from the end of the track.
Thus it will be seen that the line can
be in operation in few weeks. 1t is
understood that as soon as the roads
settle little the distribution of ma
terial will commence, and it is proba-
BILE that the line will be completed
before the first of May. In the way of
late news reports the Atlantic and
Pacific line will be a great convenience
to newspapers, as its dispatches are
not controlled by a monopoly like the
Associated Press, and are furnished to
ell patrons alike. When this line is
completed to Los Angeles, the HER
AIDS readers will be furnished with

San Fernando Cinnabar Mines.

EDITOR HERALD: More valuable
discoveries in the shape of cinnabar in
this county have been made. On the
1st of the present month 1 discovered
and located a number of claims on a
lode In the Blue Lead District, only
one mile from Lang's Station and
within few rods of the road leading
from this place to the Cerro Gordo
mines. These mines offer a greater
inducement to the capitalist than any
heretofore discovered in this county
The ore is in the calico slate formation,
and has showing over 100 feet below
the groupings. This is effected by the
action of stream of water passing by
the ledge, causing it to fall off and
giving it the showing indicated above.
Capitalists interested in quicksilver
mining might do we'll to visit this
new discovery. Any information de-
sired in regard to them can be had of
the writer. H. l.. SHANG.

ATTORNEY-GENERAL LOVE has be-
gan an action in the Sixth District
Court to restrain the Board of Educa-
tion from enforcing the use of the Pa
cific Coast Readers in the public
schools. The legal point raised is that
the books are inferior to those now in
use and that they are to be sold at a
higher cost. The case will come up
on the Sd of March. We cannot see
that any good will result from this
action. The books cannot be forced
into the schools before the first of next
January, and if the people are wise
they will elect a Legislature that will
repeal the law under which the change
is made before the introduction of the
books becomes mandatory. The uni
formity of books in the public schools
is desirable; but if we cannot have
members of the Board of Education
who are beyond the control of book
rings, we had better leave the matter
to the judgment and discretion of par.
ents and teachers.

Kellogg's Government Recognized.

New YORK, February 5th.-A New
Orleans dispatch says the Conserva-
tive members of the Legislature, after
having been in the caucus nearly all
day, accepted at 1890 this morning
the proposition of the Congressional
Committee. This secures resolution
passed and signed by all the members
of the Legislature, acknowledging the
Kellogg Government and indorsing
the election Of 1872, on consideration
of obtaining a majority in the Lower
House by seating five Conservative
contesting members.
McEnery, who was invited to be
present, made speech denouncing
the agreement.
The measure was carried by the
country members, the city delegation
being mainly in favor of rejecting the
proposition. Great excitement pre-
walls even at this late hour and strong
opposition is already developed. The
sentiment of the extreme wing of the
Democratic party is violently opposed
to what they considera sacrifice of the
people to the policy, and difficulty is
expected.

Dependent independence.

Party organs, after all, are poor, de-
pendent things. Their boasted inde-
pendence and their vaunted leader
ship, is but the thinnest kind of moon
shine. They are the puppets Of their
party, and when one has the manhood
or foolhardiness to throw off its alle-
glance it is coaxed or frightened to its
normal condition of subserviency or
incontinently knocked on the head
and dies to be resurrected under
more loyal control and plant man
agement. When the military out
rage was perpetrated on the Louisiana
Legislature, three-fourths of the Ad-
ministration papers of the nation con-
demned the act and denounced the
actors. How stand they to-day? The
Republican majority in the Senate re-
solved to stand by the President, no
matter what he did or said, and the
Republican journals fell into line
followed their leaders--as naturally
and submissively as well trained
hounds follow their master. A few
have already commenced the task of
laudation and approval, but the great
er portion are in state of transition
changing from the growing spaniel to
the fawning cur. A few months, per-
haps few weeks hence we shall see
almost every Republican journal de-
Tending and supporting every act past,
present and to come of the Admins
tration. And this is the independence
of partizan journalism! These are the
journals that are wont to boast of their
power as moulders and leaders of pub
lie opinion! These are the champions
of progress and the supporters of prin-
ciple! These are the newspapers that
prate of venality and corruption in all
parties but theirs! When GRANT
says thumbs down not one of them
dare disobey the order.

proposed compromise is the general
topic of conversation. The indications
are that the vote in the Conservative

the present Kellogg Legislature will
yield, and the adjustment proposed is
generally considered to be Impractical
bic.
Gen. Sheridan returned to-day. He
states that the Congressional Commit
tee are unanimous in the opinion that
the action of the Returning Board was
illegal and that the Conservatives had
a majority of members of the Legisla-
ture. They will conclude their inves-
tigation tomorrow and leave at once

SAN FRANCISCO, February Sth.-
About 4 o'clock yesterday morning,
Antonio Bradovich and Otto Roof,
two members of military company,
quarreled over their cups in saloon
on Pacific street. Roof struck Brado-
vich, when the latter attacked Roof
with a heavy sabre bayonet, infiicting

German Hospital and Bradovich
was arrested and confined in the City

An ex-Trensurer Of Monterey County
Charged with Retaining Public
Moneys.

SALINAS, February 4th.-At to-day's
session of the Board of Supervisors of
Monterey county, most of the time was
spent in the examination of Robert
Mckee, late County Treasurer for an
unlawful retention of $S,426. The
Supervisors found the charge true and
demanded the restitution of the money.
Mckee claims that the said sum was a
fee appertaining to the office, and that
he divided the same with the other
officials then in office. The original
bond of Mckee has been discovered
not to have been recorded and is miss
ing, as also other papers and vouchers.
