San Francisco, 25.-The convention

journed sine die.
Washington, 25.-Ths democratic nom
nations have been much discussed among
CaIifornians in Washington The general
Impression is that the majority ofthem
are strong. Slonemsn's nomination is
variously regarded by the republicans.
Some say it is the best that could have
been made By the dem oer <ts; but they
assert that be will not DO the full vote eff
his party. 1t is generally considered hat
he will not be as popular with the city as
with the country voters. Representative
Page said tonight. he tho light the nom
nations, especially StOnemsn's, were
good, his record as q railroad commits
siOner was not such as to either help or
injure his chances, for when he was in
the minority Of the board Of commission
ers, be was full Of opposition TO railroads,
but when bis party was in the majority
he did nothing, proving that his oppose
ion to railroads amounted 10 little NOR :
than talk general Rosencrsns thong tt
the nominations were admirable. He him
self has been warmly Congratulated on
his denomination and he confidently
expects reelection. He THINKS the
nomination of General Stonemsn was q
fns move on the par. of the convention,
and that the nominations for congress-
men-at-laGge are very strong. Other
gentlemen familiar with California poll
tics incline to the opinion that StoAemsn
will be defeated. His nomination has
precipitatsd conflict with the railroads
which will result dissstrously. One gem
tleman, republican, who arrived from
California last week, ssid tonight that
Stoneman would run behind his ticket,
especially in the city. This gentleman
also expressed the opinion, in which he
differs from other republicans, that Rose
Grams will be elected.

F. Few of the real Indian shawis are
called for. One of the larger houses
sells not more than sa dozen such shawls
in year, and these are the cheaper
ones; that is the shaWls of which the
prices are under 81, ,000.s One good rea-
son is that the wearer of a real Indian
shawl does not get the credit of it. So
few aresWorn, and so many initiate so
well ! the real Indian iss not recognized.
It is said that in the manufacture of In
dian shawls not the slightest improve
ment has been made since. Napoleon in
trodHced them into gEa1ope by sending
one to Josephine. The woolof the shawl
is obtained from the inner hair of the
Thibet goat. It is. cleansed in rice water
to add strength, and spun BY women.
Each loom produces about five shawls in
a year. Victoria Wrings tribute out of
these poyerty-stricken weavers in a GER
+ tain number of shawls yearly. 81 ats,
It is said that native. Indian shawls
have been imported to repair shawls and
/ change eenters to suit the wearers. The
shawls are made In pieces and put to-
gether SO deity that the seams cannot
be found, except by an expert. In the
aggregate q great many Indian shawls
are imported, but are sold chiefly in the
large cities, where they are kept in stock,
and the purchaser in . smaller city viii
go there to buy them, in order to select
from . number. Generally the. demand
has been active this year and great
many have been old.vzneooidesce Jour,

Moving an Elephant.

Z On Thanksgiving day the managers
of the fair, ground n1enagerie transferred
an elephant from his, old shed to the
commodious mansion that was recently
built for its Accommodation at cost Of
E$5, 900. 1t requires both tact and. v.ex-
/ perience TO move an elephant with any
degree Of satisfaction, and those not ac.
/ quainted with the peeuliarities of the
animal would make ibungling job; OF
it were they to undertake the task An
elephant has one popularity which all old
trainers understand perfectly, and that
is he will Invariably attempt to leave a
shed, stable, tent or house from the same
Ebpening or door through which he en-
tered. Rather than leave from anyfother
opening than that through which they
have entered, although given an oppor-
tunity to obtain egress Through other
passages, elephants have been known in
many Instances TO break their cages,
and tear down doors, and even their own
sheds The Fair Association managers
removed the bars at the rear of their ele-
phants house led him into the place
through the opening thus created rather
than take him through the front deor,
After doing this they replaced the bars
and watched the animal to see what
course he would pursue under the ag-
grayating circum stances. He surveyed
the situation, and then wrapped his trnnk
about eachbar alternately and made a
desperate attempt to remove them After
satisfying himself that this plan was not
likely to succeed, he knelt down and
