The Heated Term in California.

From the San Francesca Mining & Scientific Press ot June 16:
 The feature of the week past has been the extremely warm weather, which has lasted so much longer than our usual hot spells at thIs time of year. The weather has been the Lot test ever experienced in California The whole State has had broil. The hottest record was at Soledad, where Fahrenheit was 12e deg. Through the interior there were varying heats, from l06 to 1l3 deg in the city the highest point was 90 degrees; bu. this cOmpar- alively moderate heat is greater than we have had in June for the last five years. The most notable fact of tLe heating was Its long duration. h. stead of yielding at the end of three days lease of power the burning sun clung to Us for full five days; but now the spell is past and the city brealhes again.

TEE SENTINEL says first class fare from Yuma to San Francisco is $40 and second class $32. Our slight er- TOT in tue figures was occasioned by what we had seen printed in other pa pers, and our criticism was directed al the difference between a limited and unlimited ticket and not at high fare, for the fare, considering distance, cost of operating the road, &c,, is quite as low as ought to be expected.

A Story Of John CoYode.

''Perley" relates the following story
through the basement story in the
House of Representatives saw through
the open door Of a committee room a
marble top wash stand, which remind
ed me of a good story told about John
Covode when he occupied that room.
He used to have some very nice old rye
whisky sent him from Pennsylvania,
and to keep it for his own use, he had a
lock put on the door to a receptacle UNI
der the washstand, where he used to
stow a couple of demijohns. In some
mysterious way, however, the whisky
used to disappear. He had the locks
changed, but still the demijohn which
would be locked up in the wash stand
full in the morning, would be empty at
night. One evening at the beginning of
u roll-call, he noticed a member who
was on his committee get together a
small party of friends and leave the
hall. Mr.. Covode prided himself on
always being in his seat to answer to
his name, but instead of waiting to
vote, he o o went down to his commit
tee room, and suddenly entered with
his key. He took in the situation at a
glance. His friend had lifted the marble
top from the wash stand, and thus OBJ
tanned ready access to the receptacle
beneath, from which he had taken the
demijohn. Caught in the act he began
to apologize, but Mr.. Covode said, GO
ahead boys. Help yourselves. 1 see
now how l am in the wholesale liquor
trade"

Legend About Coffee.

There is a legend about coffee--a le-
gend in which a pious Mussulman is
the hero. The Mussulman used to get
sleepy during his devotions, and so he
prayed to Mohammed, who came to his
aid. Mohammed sent him for advice a
g%oatherd, who took a hint from his
goats. He observed that when these
animals ate the berries of a particular
tree they got frisky and excited--bound-
ed about all the night, in fact. The
Mussulman took the hint, ate the coffee
berries, slept less, and no doubt prayed
better.
That was the legend. That coffee.
however, was sold in the streets of Cal
70 toward the end of the sixteenth CEN
tnry is not a matter of legend, but his
tory. In fact, it was not only sold, but
it was forbidden to be sold. An Ara
bian historian recounts that in the year
8 a cafe was attacked by the author
tiles, and the customers who were found
on the spot were hurried off to prison,
from which they were not liberated till
they had each received seventeen strokes
with a stick, for the encouragement of
othersl And, in fact, this raid served
the purpose so exce!lently that five and
twenty years afterward the town of
Cairo could bost gilmore than 1000
shops where coffee might be bought. Elk

Special to the Register. r..
This evening the war is being etfectu-
slly carried into Africa. Mr.. Hammond,
with large number of white singers
and all the ministers Of the city, have
made a bold and successful advance
upon the colored population. Ihe
Methodist church, (colored) was
packed with dusky saints and SIM
ners who are proved to be readily sus-
ceptible to the .revivshst's simple plans
and methods, especially did his stories
wonderfully move them. lhoeeo'
for time it seemed that ne
had moved them beyond his control,
when number OF lusty-lunged
members became suddenly over
loved and gave freedom TO their Metho-
dist tendencies to demonstrate their JOY
in iumpings and shoutings that suddenly
snnihilated the melodies of the CHOIR.
But here again the leader showed his
wonderful tact and resources IN con
trolling mems hearts and actions. lie
Just went pleasantly to the NOISY
brethren, shook their hands cor
daily and quietly set them to
talking and praying with the sinners
and then followed short talk from the'
stand. in which he congratulated them
on their happiness, but asked them II
they had just escaped from SINKING
craft to safe ship, if they thought 1t
wise to spend much time shouting over
their own safety while many more were
in the sinking craft. First save all pos,
sible and then shout. And presently all
were again at work throughout the
church, MS orderly and methodlcslIy rs
before. And now the colored folks are
avnltsnt with HOPE.

condemn the word as obsolete, and, there
