Ellis Villa College.

The advertisement of the Ellis Villa
College appears in the HERALD to-day.
This Institution will occupy beautiful
situation in the western part of the city,

completed for the use of boarding and
day school for young ladies. The col.
lege grounds occupy campus of fifteen
acres, that will be ornamented and i'm,
proved in the best style. The plan

lightful in the State. The high plateau
on which the ediiice is built is free from
frosts, so that vast variety of plants
and flowers that flourish in the tropical
regions will here be in perpetual bloom.
The building is a model of neatness and
convenience, with all the modern inn
provements for the accommodation OF
pupils. A gymnasium for physical cul-
ture will be provided, and the industrial

b. o. T. x.

A notice OF the meeting of very i'm.
portant society was crowded out of the
HERALD yesterday. The organization is
to be called the B. o. 7. K, which. be-
ing translated, means Bellies Of the
Kitchen. The young ladies are de.
termined to learn how to utilize the
good things of this world, and convert
them into muscle, blood aud human
comfort.
1t is most noticeable that the young
gentlemen take deep interest in the
affair, and those who were so fortunate
as to see the sweet creatures cook a
steak or a chicken, and make loaf of
bread, were almost frantic with JOY. 1t
is supposed that three or four marriage
notices will come from the first meeting
of the b. o. I. X. on Thursday night,
at the residence of NJ. w. Childs, on
Pearl street.
The following young ladies managed
the meeting: Misses Sallie and Mamie
Levering, Efiie. Ada and Ina Baxter,
Lulu and Bell Childs, Etfie Virgin, Leila
Wilson, Annie Horner, Anna Hazeltine,
Amanda Suman, Mary Adams, Lizzie
Pickering and Leonora Smoot.
The admiring masculines who looked
on, lost in wonder, love and praise, were
the following victims:
Jas. Pickering, Harry Green. Walter
Knox, Frank Wilson. John Blake, Jim
Lancaster, Ben Bryant, Berry Boal, J.
B. Moor, Geo. Haskall, Chas. Wedg-
wood, S. NJ. Butler, M. p. Snider, r.
Fields, b. Fields, F. Fields and IL.
Levering.
The society starts off auspciously, and
should achieve great success.

Which is kiGht2

As the season of raisin making will
soon be with us, the matter of curing
them possesses peculiar interest. In re
gard to this question the Orange Gro,c-
ey's journal says:
cat the Viticultural Convention at
Fresno, Miss Austin complained that her
raisins were injured by fogs last fall dur
ing the drying season. Upon which Mr..
Wetmore produced specimen box Of
nice looking raisins, which he claimed
had had two inches of rain upon them
after having been picked. He attributed
their not being injured to the fact that
they were in just the right condition Of
ripeness when picked, and this pro-
tected them from injury. We think
the gentleman is mistaken as to
the cause of their not being injured, and
that possibly the reason was that they had
only been picked short time when the
rain came upon them. At certain stages
of curing, water will certainly spoil the
appearance, il not the quality of raisins.
A gentle rain. followed promptly with
drying weather, will do little harm;
especially if it comes soon after picking,
but we don't believe there is any pecu-
liar condition of ripeness that will save
them. Ii some cheap and easy method
of covering the trays at night could be
invented, it would be an excellent thing
for even the dryest sections"

The Member For Slocum.

The play OF the above caption was
given last night at the Childs Opera
House by the Nate. Goodwin Company.
The comedy, which is one Of the broad
farccal kind, is full Of the most amusing
situations. Onesimus Epps, the young
Member for Slocum NAT. c. Goodwin),
is ruled, body and soul, by his mother
in-law, Mrs. Jeffs Miss Maria Davis),
whose woman's rights proclivities are
most pronounced. The Members wife
Miss Hattie Delaro) enters fully into
the spirit OF role from her mother.
William Smith, otherwise known as
"Bll Smith," Onesimus boon compan-
ion, rendered by Mr.. Robert Cole, Jr.,
has been divorced from his wife Miss
Adele Waters), who, still in love with
her husband, seeks to win him back to
his coujugal fealty. The Members evi-
dent indisposition to be pulled by a
woman's apron strings, and his sup
pressed though genuine bonhommie are
the groundwork for the most laughabie
and inimitable situations conceivable. A
full house greeted the company last
night and laughed at Goodwn's irresisii-
BILE sallies gorges aeptoyes. This troupe
is winning hosts of friends by their faith
full work, and at the matinee this after
noon, at which Confusion" will be
given, full house is confidently expect
ed. The same delightful comedy will
be given as the closing performance to-
night.

Tinke.ing Time.

Again the poor old town clock was
changed yesterday to accommodate n
half dozen Eastern railway managers
and carries lie on its perpetually.
People may yet find out that time is
regulated by the motions Of the earth
around the sun, and not by sope rail-
way manager in New York or Boston.
Serious questions may arise from this
change. According to the laws of the
State, the polls OF an election must be
opened and closed according to the time
OF the rising and setting of the sun.
The time must be observed critically.
The present arrangement of time pieces
will not apply properly. The sun will
rise and set without regard to the rail
roads, and the polls must open and close
according to the sun, but the clock will
be no guide. II the weather is cloudy
the sunrise will not be seen, and the
clocks all being wrong will not truly in
dictate the time, and elections may be
null and void because held out of time.
In addition to the trouble that may be
caused at elections, there is very seri-
ous trouble that might arise from sher-
ifs sales and delinquent stock sales.
Then again, some OF the fellows who
made this regulation OF time may be
sentenced to be hung, as many good men
have been, and they would certainly
protest against being hung ahead of
time, which might be the case If the
new standard shall be adopted.
The City Council resolved to make
the change of time according to the re-
quest of the Board of Trade. But what
right had the Board of Trade to meddle
in The matter? Has the Board any as
tronomer or scientist that has recon-
mended such change? Has any mem
Der of the Council thought OF the danger
of the experiment? The matter is seri
Gus one and should receive serious atten-
ton. The railways may change
the time to suit their convenience, but
the standard time of every place should
be preserved and regulated with scru-
pulous care. The city clock, the clocks
in the banks, the courts and the Sher-
IFS Office should all be kept on standard
time and nothing else. II any have
changed to the meridian Of 100 degrees,
they may wake up with a lawsuit on
their hands OF a serious character. The
laws of the country require standard
time, and standard time must be kept.

A Warning to Smokers.

A curious accident happened in Paris
the other day. DIR. R. wears very
open collars on his shirts, and when
walking along the Rue do Vaugirard
somebody threw lighted cigar stump
out through the window. The doctor
received the gracious offering in the
nape of his neck. He tried to take hold
of it, but il eluded his grasp, and tum-
bled down his back, burning him dread
fully in number of places. Mad with
pain he rushed into wine-shop, but
before he could strip, his back was a
mass OF blisters.
Tho doctor did not know who had
thrown the cigar stump, but bystander
noticed the window it came from, and
the doctor sent for a policeman. The
person who threw the Cigar proved to
be a NJ. c.. a gentleman Of means. who
was very much shocked at his impru.
dence, and offered considerable sum of
money to the doctor to hush the matter
up. But the latter refused to be ap-
peased, aud threatened to bring an action
for criminal carelessness. Should he
succeed the smoker may grieve in jail
over the result Of his folly.

A Bicycle Accident.

The Orange Grorer's Journal records
another of the bicycle accidents at Riv-
erside, as follows: Gas j. B. Summons
was driving up Brockton avenue the
other evening, boy ON bicycle rode
suddenly past and swung into the road
in front of his horse. The animal was
frightened at the sudden apparition, and
throwing himself, upset the buggy aud
deposited its occupants in the road. The
harness was torn into small pieces, but
fortunately no other material damage
was done. 1t is about time some orji-
nance was promulgated which would
compel riders of the silent steed' to
take proper care when travelling, SO that
such accidents might not happen. 1t
shonld be the duty of bicyclist to
watch for danger of this sort, and in case
of fright on the part of horse, get out
Of the way as quietly as possible"

Common Sense OF Bees.

A little daughter of Mr.. R. P. Waite,
of Riverside, who has attained the ma.
ture age OF twelve months. appears to be
of an inquiring turn of mind. Her last
exploit was to interview beehive, and
when found, was poking her fingers
into the hive to ascert ain what was GO
ing on there. The bees seemed to un-
derstand the situation, aud instead of
making war upon the little lady, alight-
ed all over her clothing and watched
her movements with curiosity and ex-
tieme forbearance. The little creature
was carried away in a hasty manner
and the insects persuaded to leave her
clothing as soon as possible, and yet, al.
though hundreds of bees alighted on
her person. she was not stung at ALL
Bees seem to know their friends. There
is moral in the story for those who can
find it,
