California Titicutturists,

At recent convention of wine-growers
In San Francisco a gentleman read pa
per on 'Viticulture in its Relation to Tenn
perance," and made, as the Call SAYS. a.
logical appeal for rational temperance.
The clergy of the two largest cities of
California are opposed to a viticulture
commission supported by state aid. as an
encouragement of an industry opposed to
the interests of temperance. Il WISH,
said the lecturer, ''that we could have the
clergy of San Francisco and Sacramento
with us tonight. that they might be
impressed with our personnel f.; that
we are not a lot of sots and

interested in the subject of viticulture 1

OF the earth. are the most progressive.

world can produce. 1 found no imme

drink more wine than we do, but were una

industry Of their people. 1t was not until

my question. There I learned that the

In June last Messrs D. R. Musselman &

offered an elegant silver set to any person
who would answer in the best manner to
the satisfaction of a committee of news
paper men, the question ''Why is Boot
Jack the most appropriate name for a
brand of chewing tobacco ?'' The time
fixed for examining the answers was last
evening at the Merchants Hotel, when
Mr.. Harrison requested Capt.
H. A. Castle, Robert K.
Carr and 7. S. White to act as a commit
tee to examine the answers sent in and de-
eide upon their merits. The firm of Allen,
Moon & Co. have been handling the Boot
Jack brand of tobacco for some months
past, and naturally feeling an interest in
the result of the novel contest for the
beautiful and costly prize offered, Messrs.
Allen and Moon were present at the open
ing of the answers, together with a num-
Der of newspaper reporters and other dis
tinguished gentlemen. Over one hundred
answers were received but these were
whitfield down by the committee to fifty,
and each member Of the committee
scored his appreciation. of the different
answers in the ratio of to 10. The five

three selections with piano

was applauded again and again, and but
for the lateness of the evening she would
have been kept singing for hours. After
the singing the party proceeded to the la

was spread, and an hour or so was spent in
discussing the elegant repast, and the mer-

Why The Bride Cried.
Brunswick Me. Herald. I

On the bank of the Kennebec river. a
few miles below Bath, lives an old lady.
Years ago she cried so violently when
about to be married that it was difficult
she could be pacifed. On being interrog-
ated as to the cause of her great grief, she
replied that it made her sad to think she
was to live so near the steep bank of the
river. where her children would daily be in
danger of falling over and being drowned.
The lady has now lived there about fifty
ears. and has never had child.

No white man is more widely known
among the Indians than Col. Dodge, who
is always spoken of by them as the 'Big
Child" His new work, ''Our Wild In
dians,' on the title. page of which Gen.
Sherman's name also appears, was under
taken by him at the urgent solicitation of
many distinguished men. It was not, how
ever, until Gen. Sherman offered to write
an introduction to the work, and to give
the volume his official sanction, that Col.
Dodge consented to undertake it. It is the
first authentic account of our wild Indians
that has been written for nearly forty
years.
The author writes from the standpoint
of actual personal experience, and it is in
teresting to note in this connection the ex-
ceptional opportunities of observation he
has enjoyed, as will be seen from the fol-
lowing statement of facts:-Col. Dodge
was graduated from West Point in 1S4S.
and was at once assigned to active duty Oh
the Texas frontier among the crafty and
cunning Comanches. From that time un-
til his last campaign against the Utes, in
1880, period of thirty-tiree gears, his life
has been spent in direct personal contact
with the widest Indians of the Ear West"

lot of a white man, and such as no one in
civil life could possibly command.
In this volume of $50 pages, Col. Dodge
