A Fine Display.

The Jackson House Restaurant! has a
new cook, q Frenchman, and he has just
shown the proprietors what he can do in the
way Of dressing a show window. His work
y tastefuliy and artlstioally done, and OK
cites the admiration Of epicures. From
quail on toast to a huge block OF roast
beef, the cook illustrates the beauties Of
the culinary art, and no one can pass the
window without a longing, lingering look.
There are exceptions to the frite saying
That the Lord sends the food and the devil
the cooks, and Messrs. Gibfried & Bris-
aeher are lucky in breaking the rule. The
people who board with them ought to
grow fat, sleek and happy.

SAN FRANcIsco, Jan. 26.-Bulwer de-
clares a dividend of 10 cents per share.
Mrs. Susan Green, residing with her son
aged 8 years, at 713 Natoma street, whose
husband is employed at the Sonoma land
ing, committed suicide this morning about
10 O'Clock. She sent her little son up
stairs to get a cup of tea, and during his
absence procured a razor and inflicted a
| cash on the right side of the neck. The
arteries we're severed and death speedily
resulted in hemorrhage. The boy on re-
turning found his mother covered with
blood. An alarm was given, but by the
time the neighbors and an officer arrived the
woman was dead.
The California -four mills and macaroni
| factory, at the corner of Sixth and Berry
streets, were burned this morning. The
loss is estimated at 4 5000.
An unusually severe earthquake was ex-
perienced at Centerville this evening,
causing great excitement among the resi-
dents. A very heavy shower OF rain pre-
coded the shock.
A.. A. Cohen, the we'll known attorney,
was interviewed to-day in regard to the re-
ported sale Of a controlling interest in the
st. Louis and San Francisco Railway
Company, and the consequent half inter-
eat in the Atlantic and Pacific to Jay
Gould and g. P. Huntington. Cohen is
the acting attorney here for both COM
panies. The interview with him confirms
the report beyond the possibility of a
doubt. Cohen stated that he had received
a telegram this morning apprising him OF
a sale Of the controlling interest in the st.
Louis and San Francisco Railroad to
Gould and Huntington.
"What effect will that have upon the
future of railroading to and from this
coast?"
Cant say"
"Does the purchase Of the st. Louis
and San Francisco Railroad really include
a half interest in the Atlantic & Pacific
and the Atchison, Topeka 81 Santa Fe, the
other half?
cit is said that the move will block
competition and leave a monopoly of the
freight and passenger traffic in the hands
Of the Central 4 Southern Pacific Rail-
roads as it now is, and will result in the
stoppage Of road building on the part Of
the Atlantic d Pacific people when it
reaches a point at or near the line Of this
State, with the Southern Pacific. Is that
sop
81 can't say. l suppose Huntington did
not buy the controlling interest in the
road for nothing. 1t was probably to Sc
cure all the advantage that the position
could bring forth"
Chow much does the purchase repre-
sent in money!"
"Well, l can't say exactly. The stock
of the st. Louis and San Francisco Com
pany is held at S25, 900, 900, while a half
interest in the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad
Company represents $50, 900, 900, $780,
900. 600 being the amount of the stock fixed
by statute"
1t is evident from this that the purchase
| price must have been very large.
UKIAH, Jan. 26.-Force's stage, en- route

The carnival to be held At the rink to-
morrow night promises to be a grand
spectacle, and judging from the prepare
tons already made and in progress, we feel

ment that at Z p. NJ. sharp, tomorrow
night there will be a brilliant display OF
fireworks in front Of the rink, n when
the pirates arrive at 8 sharp, there VIII be
another display, which will be the signal

The children generally acquitted them
selves very creditably, and rendered the
dialogue and music in q most pleasing
manner. to the delight Of all present.
However, the attendance was not common
surate with the merits OF the performance.
The house should have been crowded in
every part to cheer the little amateurs
who have for the past six months labored
and studied to produce the piece, and to
encourage those ladies who have devoted
much time to make the affair q success. The
little actors we're nicely and appropriately
costumed by Mrs. Straus, and moved
through their parts with ease and freedom.
Miss Carrie Mette, as Pocahontas. was the
central figure, and she invested the char
acter OF the pretty Princess with a quiet,
maidenly grace that bespoke intelligence
and aptitude for the stage. Her vocal
numbers revealed a voice of great strength
and purity for one SO young, and an audi
tor, without being able TO see her, would
have credited her songs TO an older person.
Master Pardy was a kingly King, and sur
rounded the historical and dreaded chief
with all the dignity Of the noble red man
before he succumbed to the civilizing
influences OF firewater and cigarettes.
Charles Mette, as Captain John
Smith, adequately interpreted the hero
Of the play, and was accorded
generous applause for his vocal
efforts. The cast throughout showed pro-
f~iciency bordering on %precocity, and every
one appeared to play his or her part with
enthusiasm. The evening was further en-
liyened by songs from Mrs. J.. L. Platter,
Mrs. W. II. Clark. Miss Sallie Vance, Miss
Minnie Griffin, Miss Efie Phillips and ].
II. Munday. Miss Griffin sang ''Annie
Laurie" and the f~avorite old melody ap-
peared to have been recreated by her sweet
soprano voice. Equally pretty was 1--WE

duet between Mrs. CLARK and Miss Vance
was highly enjoyed. Miss Vance is pos
sessed Of a strong contralto voice, clear
and resonant, under good control, and
full of expression, which appeared in per
feet sympathy with Mrs. Clark's. The
song between Mesdames Platter and Clarl
and Mr.. Munday was also q treat, though
the former was quite hoarse from a severe
cold. The entertainment throughout gave
satisfaction, and is worthy Of repetition.

EDUCATION and liberal principles wW go
together, one and inseparable, and any at
Tempt 10 carry out the idea of people, ever
il they obtained freedom, remaining free
while remaining ignorant, is simply alb
surdity. Monarchs, aristocracies and cleri-
Gals have usually guarded with watchful
solicitude against the spread of knowledge
among the common people" "If the horse
knew the power OF his heel man would never
have ridden upon his back" and if the people
had known their own rights no monarch would
have dominated their will. When the lovers
of absolutism, pure or diluted, find them
selves compelled by the stress of events or
the pressure of public sentiment to instruct
the people, they usually take care to deal
with the viands confiied to their care as the
gardeners do by the vines and trees they
train along wall and trellis; they do not ed
ucate, they drill and train, and for genuine
knowledge il substituted the spurious dross
of catechisms and cut-and dried facts.
France has learned this, especi-
ally as it respects the convent-bred
victims of "crammings" that do not reason,
and OF acc c5mplishments that do not edify.
Thirty schools for girls are at once to be es
tablished in France, in which real, not sham
education will have its place. The qnick,
sagacious French girls will profit by the
changes. Frenchwomen are power, their
influence in the household is governmental.

II Is imp 2ssible to travel in a railway car
where FIRE is burning in the stove, withou;
a disposition to shudder. The smash and
tear of the cars in railroad accident and
the disastrous effects they produce are bad
enough, but they sink to the point of mod
Grafton, compared with what takes place
wheu the burning stove has kindled
fame among the splintered tinbers.
Here is a fellow-creature, caught by the
arm or foot in some broken timbers,
imploring, praying, besseching for Gods
dear love the bystander to lift away the
plank that makes the place trap. The
task Is NJ great one. The spectator is in an
agony to help. The victim is unhurt, only
he cannot free himself of the hard jtmmed
pieces of broken seats and appraised floor.
Wky then is not the help given? because
the fire, that is roasting the victim alive,
forbids all aid to free him. In vain would
the generous and godIike bear wounds and
burns in behalf of the sufferer, no power can
save, no self.devotion rescue. In England
they are running a train this
winter lighted by Elison's incandescent
electric lights and warmed by the spent
steam Of the engine. The car may be
smashed from an accident, but the steam will
escape harmless, and the Faure accumulator
that supplied the lamps cannot fire a gauzs

made to the fiTe-hend must cease. Light
