SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 17.-At q meeting last
night under the auspices of the Trades as
sembly, resolutions were adopted appreciat-
ing the efforts of the Pacific coast representa-
tives to secure anti Chinese legislation, but

artful treaty to permit Chinese, now residents,
to come and go at will, and caling upon thei;
representative to use all the power which they
possess to obtain the desired legislation and
threatening to defeat any man who continues
to triie with their demands. Letters were read
from Senator Miller and Representatives Roeen
cranz and Berry expressing their intention to
seek early action on anti Chinese legislation.

Gnly a Farmers Daughter.

The dramatic event of the ensuing
week will be the appearance at the Opera
house of Elliot Barnes new, and what is
described as his great play, of ''Only a
Farmers Daughter" The drama has
met with wonderful success in the East,
and is said to contain strong dramatic
situations, that are powerfully portrayed
by the company. In speaking of the play
an exchange has the following:
The play is entirely original, embodies
many commendable features and is free from
the sickly sentimentalities and trashy French
isms that even some authors of acknowledged
ability deem essestial in catering to certain de-
PRAYED tastes. It possesses wholesome, re-
fresning moral tone, and we commend The
bold stand of Mr.. Barnes in his endeavor to
raise the wavering standard OF the American
drama. The plot, though at times intricate,
holds its interest from the beginning to the
close, and is sufficiently versatile to awaken
frequent enthusiastic outoursts. The aud
fence was well-nigh unbounded in its manifest
alton Of approval of the conception and rendi-
ton of the leading roles, and even the minor
readings ELECTED appreciative applause.

Marrying Female Cenvicts, From the Cornhill Ma9azine.1

French female prisoners and convicts are treated with more kindness, on the whole
 than persons of their class are in England
 Their matrons and warderesses are Angus tine nuns, whose rule, though firm, is gentler
 more merciful, and more steadfastly equitable than that of lay women could be. The fe- male convicts are allowed the same privileges as the men in the matter of earning money and buying things at the canteen. Those of them who are young also enjoy & privilege not granted to fem .le convicts in other coun- t'ies-thst of having husbands pro vided for them by the State. Only these husbands must be convicts. Every six months mo- tice is circulated in the female penitentiaries calling upon all women who feel minded to go out to New Caledonia and be married, to make an application to that effect through the Governor. Elderly women are always very prompt in making such applications;
 but they not entertained. The matri- monial candidates must be young, and ex- empt from physical infirmities. Girls under long sentences readily catch at this method of escaping from the intolerable tedium of prison life; and the pretty ones are cer- tain to be put on the Governors list, no matter how frightful may be the crimes for which they have been sentenced. The only moral qualification requisite is to have pass ed at least two years in the penitentiary. The selected candidates have to sign engage ments promising to marry convicts and to settle in New Caledonia for the remainder of their lives. On these conditions government transports them, gives them decent outfit, and a ticket -of-leave when they land at Nou- mea. Their marriages are arranged for them by the Governor of the colony, who has a selection of well behaved convicts ready for them to choose from, and each girl may consult her own fancy within certain limits, for the proportion of marriaseable men to women is about three to one. Of course, if girl declares that none of the aspirant bridegrooms submitted to her in- spection have met with her approval, the

Forests Sacrificed for Leather.


 One of the handsomest trees in California is known by the common name of chestnut oak. It is tall, slim tree, having leaves like the chestnut tree it is evergreen, and never grows in open grounds. It's habitat is nearly limited to that of the redwood, or more accurately to that of the madrono. It is only oak in this vicinity which furnishes @ bark suitable for tanning leather. At least, it is the only oak bark which has ever been used in this State. Now, the leather business has been unusually good in this State for the two or three years last past Over large districts this beautiful chestnut oak is slashed down for the bark The trunks are peeled and then left to decay. Great openings are made in the forests, and the sun is let in, evaporating the moisture so rapidly that these trees do not propagate The result will be that this immense waste will only terminate with the destruction of this tree. and the decay of the fallen timber.

 An Early Morning Sketch h

The tremulous boughs of the waving trees were raining down shadows that fell cool and fair upon Lurhne Perkins, beautiful face as she stood silent and alone near the wood shed. The murmurous signing of the sum
 mer breeze was borne to her by the tranoed air and ever and anon there came up from the meadows the sound of the farmers axe as he felled the sturdy asparagus that was soon to delight the palates of the rich people in the slty who could pay for it. Away to the east. ward, mirroring back the azure dome of the sky, lay the lake, and the swell of it's silver foam but served to make the silence deeper.
 The girl stood for several minutes as if entranced by the scene. Then, turning sad iy away, she exclaimed in low, bitter tones : sI suppose I shall have to milk that dratted COW, and the sooner I get at it the better. ,"

 The Liquor Dealers Association of Indiana is likely to give the Democrats some trouble in the coming canvass. A meeting of the members of the association WAS held a few days ago for the purpose of furthering the objects of the organization. It is reported that 1t was decided not to accept any half way resolutions by the Democratic State con- vention, and that plank in the platform against the submission of the prohibitory amendment should be demanded. The De ,nn- ocrats have recently been inclined to ad.opt a resolution simply pledging the party 10 vote against prohibition.
