Bile since the expiration of the
street sprinkling contract. The
Council which will end its term
Thursday seems to US to have been
governed by too great a delicacy.
Under the impression that 1t had
no power to enter into any contract
exceeding three hundred dollars In
amount that body has allowed our
citizens to suffer from a nuisance
which is worse than an epidemic
would have been. Col. Hewitt In
forms us that many persons who
have come down to Los Angeles
for a heightened stay have pur-
chased tickets for San Francisco
the next day, alleging as reason
for their change of mind that, as
they were intent on health and
pleasure, they would not remain In
place In which they were choked
to death by the dust. Their change
Of base showed common sense.
Certainly our people cannot afford
to repel those who seek Los Ange-
les for pleasure and health by leav-
Ing our town In Its present filthy
condition. The Council could very
we'll have made contracts from
week to week, and they had the
perfect certainty of being sustained
by tho public in all the provisions
they might have made for protect
ing the public health. The dust Of
our streets is not only an intolera-
BILE nuisance but 1t is highly injuri-
Gus to the physical we'll. being of
our people as well. Give US the
.prinkling carts, by all means, as a
lem aud both of hygiene and de-
csncy.

BEFORE the Peoples ticket was
nominated we expressed our belief
In the unwisdom of tho fusion. 1t
may be that q stiaight Democratic
ticket would have failed of success.
In the language Of the homely old
adage. "every dog has his day."
and the Worklngmen were almost
certain 10 succeed once. But the
Democracy, by nominating a
straight ticket aud winning or los
ing on well defined and recog gnized
issues, would have had much to
console 1t in defeat. We are told
that "sweet and bitter are the uses
Of adversely" We confess that we
can dlstill great deal of useful iu-
struction out of defeat. AS for the
victors in yesterdays battle, we
do not envy them the gratulations
in which they will, of course, in
dulge. They should be moderate
in their exultaiion. They will
find themselves entrusted with the
government of our city. Upon
their wise exercise Of this trust
will hinge their ultimate victory or
defeat. We trust they viii justify
every hope that has been placed in
them. AS to the successful candi-
dates, while we did not advocate
their election, we shall give them o
fair trial and speak OF them as
their official acts shall warrant.
We did not villify any of them per-
sonaliy during the campaign and
va do not propose. now that they
have won, either to sing their
praises or to indulge in single
word of envy or uncharitablenes'
We trust that both they and their
constituents will be mutually
pleased with their work when he
terms of Office of the new incum-
bents draws to close. But, above
all things, Messieurs OF the new
Council and of the old, sprinkle the

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2nd.-Tt is
ascertained in banking circles here
that the importation of trade u III
lars from China to Now York has
been com menced, 5000, 0g0 have
been received in London eli route
to New York, coming via Suez;
moro are on the way by the same
route and 1t is understood that the
steamer Belgic, due early in Janu-
ary from Hongknng and Yoko
hama, will bring lot. The secret
of this movement Is alleged to be
that trade dollars can now be pur-
chased In China at a rate which
enables the importer to lay them
down In New York for 924
cents, making a profit on the trans
action of six cents. 1t is also un-
derstood that to. morrow Beck will
present II bill in Congress provid-
ing for the resumption of the coin
age of trade dollars. SeligmaD
Bros, of New York, are undr rstood
to be handling the transaction,
which lends color TO the rumor OF

that he promised to do 1t, and thai
he would 30 1t. That was the only

The Sack Of Earth.

A rich man had cheated a poor
widow out of field which had belong
ed to her husband, aud which was the
only property she had, in order to
make his own garden larger. A day OF
two after the poor woman met him in
that very field with an empty sack in
her hand. With tears in her eyes, she
said to him:
Sir, wish you would give me just
as will ill this sack
The man laughed aud said: 4 can't
refuse such foolish wish as that
The widow filed the sack with earth.
and then said: And now, sir, am go
ing to ask you to help me lift this on
my shoulder"
The man had no wish to do this, but
the widow begged him so hard that he
was obliged to lift the sack he found it
was too heavy for him to move. He
told the widow so, and she said:
oh, sir, if you find only one sack OF
earth too heavy, how will you be able
to bear the weight of this field, which
holds thousands of times as much earth,
upon your conscience at the day OF
Judgment
The man trembled at these words
and gave her back her land again.

The other day gentleman, residing
IN neat modest cottage, caught a
tramp prowling about his back yard,
evidently trying to steal something.
why don't you come to the front
door if you want anythins?' Indignantly
roared the proprietor.
That's what Pm looking for was
the impudent reply.
Didn't you see it on the other side OF
the house.' reterted the gentleman.
How was 1 to know that was the
front door, No silver door plate, no
bell, no telephone, no statuary' no
servant to take your hat and cane.-
Tell your boss there is a gentleman out
here who is waiting for his breakfast
When the gentleman got back with
his shotgun the tramp was not there
any more.

STARK, STARIN' MAD.'-An Eng
lish physician relates an anecdote ofone
of his patients, which is not only very
amusing, but expressive OF that partic-
ular type of man who, as a rule, does
not practice what he breaches:
A patient of mine, middle-aged cler-
gyman, vas Suffering from some slight
symptoms of gout. l recommended
glass of hot whisky and water every
day, in preference to physics ol any
kind, but my reverend friend, with up
turned eyes, absolutely refused to ac-
cept my prescription, saying: No, no,
doctor; | have all my life preached
against alcohol in any form. If that Is
the only remedy l must continue to
suffer. Besides said he, if rang for
hot water my servants would guess its
purpose
Said [, You shave ring the bell Tor
shaving water, mix your glass Oh meu'-
cnal whisky, and who'll be the wiser
but yourself?
The parson at last submitted and we
shook bands and parted. In a few
weeks time my carriage passing the
clergyman's door, reminded me of my
clerical friend. l touched the bell and
the thin, care-worn face Of once robust
housekeeper answered me. Inquired, l
'How's your master?' Stark, starin'
mad, sir-mad as he can be- Mad
how! what how madp 'Lor', sir,
mad as he can be why, he shaves his
self about twenty times every day. J.
was the innocent reply.

THERE is no SHADOW on HER FACE.

There is no shadow on her facet
Though as she sits beside the door,
Humming an old tune, soft and low,
We know that she can see the place,
Just over on the hillside there,
Now made by summer-fowers so fair,
Where he-whose life-work being done
Lies calmly sleeping in the sun
There is 10 shadow on her face
Though other heads beside him rest,
That once were pillowed on her breast
Indeed she seems to love the place
For looking there I've seen her smile,
And heard her say, A little while y
Her ewes looked far beyond the tomb
To where the lilies ever bloom
There is no shadow on her face
She knows them safe across the river,
Where pain and grief can touch them never
By faith she sees that heavenly place,
That City on the eternal shore,
Where loved ones meet to part no more
And thus cen here beneath the skies
Dwells in the light Of Paradise !
