lions in good repair, are your fences
proof against the stock, and have
you matured a plan for your mex.
years work? If you have, spare no
time in getting al your work; II not,
place your yourself in this condition
just as soon as you possibly can. Set
apart lands for ..oats, and SOW them
as soon as possible, then for corn and
dastly for cotton; and as the time
approaches for planting each crop,
be prepared TO plant at the right
time, and plant the crops to the
best advantage. This doue, and the
foundation for good crop is well
laid"

AT an election in New Orleans on

gates TO represent the city il the
Democratic State Convention, a
bloody fight occurred at the polls in

Ogd, n men, and Edmund Mason, q
McEncrN tie, were killed outright.
and the following persons were
wounded. but not fatally: Bob
Brewster, John Brewster, Lawrence
O'Dohnell, Charles Fazzlo, George
TiradO, David Krackeman, John
Astredo. {. Pcredeau. 80 or 40 shots
were fired, and the widest excite
mcnt prevailed in that PORTION OF
the city for awhile, but order was
finally restored, and various partici-
pants placed under arrest.
The trouble was entirely unne-
csssary and uucalled for, and yet
was bit the legitimate child of the
intensely bitter feeling which has
lately characterized some of the fol
lowers of the opposing candidates
for the gubernational nomination in
our sister State.

priatcly terms it, "a poor common.

The Last Census of Japan.

Birminaham Idols.

The statement which was made some
time ago as to England furnishing imag-
es for Hindoo idolators is now reiterated
with increased emphasis. It is said that
these false gods are made in great guam
titles at Birmingham, and supplied as
ordinary merchandise. They are mostly
small affairs, intendedfor household use.
The larger images for the temples, some
of which are of the Size of wooden Indians,
and some larger, are made by the natives.
In costly temples these larger images
are sometimes richly ornamented, even
if rudeIy carved Itis by no means rare
to find their eyes mado of diamonds OF
other precious stones. The names oi
the Birmingham manufacturers Of small
idols have not been made public, al.
though there has been considerable in.
quiry for them on the part of persons in
tezested in missionary affairs.

A Den of Sea Lions.

FROM the Santa barDaFA fTesh-J
In among the ragged rocks, over
which the waters lazily lashed them
selves into froth and foam, LARGO rowed
us. We looked up IN awe and wonder
Mt the dark black rocks, upon whose
highest points could be distinctly seen
the nests and The maternal portion of
tire eagle families who reside there.
Through narrow pass between these
rocks and we are now in n rock-enclosed
basin almost beneath the precipitous
cliff of the main island. A pile of
smoothly washed stone afforded land
ing place and we were at the mouth of a
cavern and near tunnel worn by the
waters through a mass of rock. A rail-
road train could pass through this tun-
mel at low tide; at high tide 1t is sacred
to the wild waves and breakers. 10 the
right there is den, and such den, too.
Here were seen 200 little sea lion pups
or cubs rolling or tumbling over the
rocks, wholly unconscious of our pres.
ence. It was not until shot had been
fred and rocks thrown at them that the
large sea lions became alarmed. They
were not brnye and made no attempt to
protect their young. On the contrary,
as soon as they saw us looking in their
nursery they gave loud barks, snorts or
roars and dived deep into the water, which
rose and fell in foany breakers at the
mouth of the cave. A hundred
could have been caught with ease, SO stu
pid did they appear to be.
A second visit to the den by other
members of the party resulted in the
capture of two of the young sea lions OF
seals. A little boy, 10 years of age,
named Ernest Whitehead, ambitious tc
own sea lion cub, followed NJ. Seely,
of Goleta, into the deD. He at once
threw himself, upon a young cub, almost
as large as himself, wrestled with it il
an ATTEMPTED to force it into sack and
as he rolled into the water with his tinny
antagonist, lie cried Justify for help ant
a larger sack. With the assistance o
AIR. Seely the fellow secured captiv,
cub and brought it to the sloop, wher'
he shed his wet clothes and lay baskint
on the sunny deck until his clothes
dried. He had got his sea lion pup.

A man in Judge Geddes' district in
Ohio was in the habit of visiting neigh
boring town and getting drunk. One
night on mis- return home, with several
sheets in the wind, he approached his
house, saw no light, and suspected that
his wife had gone to bed. "Now, Mary
has gone to bed, he said, "and hasn't
anything for me to eat. I'll make it
warm for her." But in moment he saw
a light, and then said: "I'll be blessed
if the extravagant thing isn't sitting up
till this hour OF night burning out my
oil. Now, durn me if don't make it
