CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA

Several gentlemen from Califor-
MIA. Nevada and Oregon, en- route
for New York, have been inter.
viewed in Chiesgo regarding the
political outlook on the Pacific
Coast, and the probable outcome OF
the Presidential election next fall.
They agree that Oregon will 90 for
Blaine, but say Califol mia and Ne
gada will cast their votes for the
Democratic nominee. This esti-
mate is probably correct, though
the Democrats do not neei the cleo
teral votes Of the two States named;
indeed, those votes would not help
the Democratic nominee unless it
be help to make the majority lar
ger. California is properly DEM
ocratic State. 1t gave its
electoral vote to Hancock
and English in 1880. In 1882, it
sent solid Democratic delegation
of six to Congress, and chose q
Democratic governor. The MAJORS
ties Of the two congressmen.at-large
were respectively 3,4S5 and 3,S25,
and these figures very nearly
represent the actual majority of the
party in the State. The local ques-
ton of Chinese cheap labor is of
greater importance to a large per-
csntsge of Coast voters, than the
prineiI les Of the national parties. It
is rather to be Hoped that the Dem
ocrats will lose the State rather
than gain it by any un-American
declaration regarding the Chinese.
The party can better afford
to do without California
for all time, or even lose the elecs
tion, than place itself on record as
upholding an un-Democratic doc
trine like the exclusion of Chinese.
Blaine is understood TO be radically |
anti Chinese, not because of any
principle involved, but fer the rea-
son that he ia demagogue, and
fully understands that the vote CT a
loafer counts just as much as the
ballot of the active, intelligent, pro-
gressiYe business man. If the
Chinese could and would vote, and
they outnumbered the idlers, gam
blers and lOaferF, Mr.. Blaine would

The Dead Duke.

The duke was fond of literary socic-
ty, and liked to get eminent authors
around him, and to talk with them
ABOUT books and writer's. 1t was his
custom to ask at party to be made
known to any man OF letters who might
be present. He would sometimes seek
special introduction to an author whose
book he had read with pleasure. We
believe, for example, that on reading
MIR. James Payn's story, ~. Perfect
Treasure" he asked to be introduced
to the writer, and afterward found
much occasional amusement in his
company. He had very keen appre-
citation of humor and laughed heartily
at good story. His secretary and
doctor could record many comments
OF much point and showing serious
thought. His ill-health was an occa-
slonal cause of melancholy observation.
On one occasion an eminent literary
man and member of the house of
lords were talking with him, when the
conversation turned on what gave the
best chance of happy life. The literary
man said that persons in middle po-
sition who were without ambitions they
could not satisfy were in the happiest
state. The conversation went on, and
one OF the speakers said to the duke
that his own position must be happy
one. You forget" he said, 81 am
worst off of all. want the chief thing.
1t is Observation-Disclosures His po-
litical views were strongly conserva-
tive, but he was reserved in his ex-
preston of them, and in no way re-
sented the utteranco of the most oppo-
site opinion. He was extremely fond
of music, and was, We believe, himself
a performer on various instruments.
he had, too, passion for whist and
was fairly good player-London Dai-
ly Ne,CS.

Almost n Fiasco.

Odd things will sometimes happen
on the first night of a new play. Asa
matter of fact they generally do hap
pen, and occasionally an unforeseen
accident Of trivial Importance under
other circumstances, will kill theatre
cal production outright Belasco, the
dramatist, had a narrow escape with
the first performance of his La Belle
Russo in California. In the most
thrilling scene of the play, where the
Vlllainess and the hero have their
strongest scene together, Miss Jeifreys-
Lewis and Mr.. Osmond Tearle were
alone upon the stage. Mr.. Tearle was
sitting down with folded arms, and
Miss Lewis was standing, lust on the
point of delivering her longest and
heaviest speech. At the very instant
of beginning she felt something give
way about her waist, and garment
which the editor would not allow me to
mention, slid slowly down towards the
door. Miss Lewis had sufficient pres
ence of mind to disentangle herself,
and she succeeded, without discovery,
in pushing the garment back to the
end OF the sofa, where it could not be
seen by the audience. Then she went
on with her speech. Just after this
point in the play Mr.. Tearle had to
draw his handkerchief from the breast
pocket of his coat. 1t so happened
that his handkerchief on this particu-
lar night was in his hip pocket, and in
transferring it to his coat the article
slipped from his hand Reaching
down without looking, he caught hold
of the abandoned portion of Miss
Lewis wardrobe. and that lady was
Mortified to see him raise it slowly to-
wards his breast. He had it nearly up
when his eye fell upon the frill which
adorned it, and he let 90 with great
precipitation. Mr. Tearlc played the
scene through without any handker-
chief and luckily no one in the audi
ence had observed his attempt to pick
it up. LA Belle Russo" had very

Bicycle Bearings.

The bearings in bicycle are perhaps
more to be admired than any single
part Instead of allowing the axle to
slide round in its bearings, hard steel
rollers or balls are introduced, so that
the parts which are pressed together
roll over and do not slide upon one an
other. Anyone who has trodden on 4
roller or marble must have found in
a possibly unpleasant manner the great
difference between rolling and sliding

We have heard, perhaps, the last of
Weston and his walk for some time.
But there is never lacking some person
who will back himself to do odd things
to 90 without food for six weeks, or
to walk, without drink, for six months.
A Swede has now wagered that he will
visit all the cities of Europe which are,
or ever have been, capitals Of states, in
the course of this year. He has already
done all the capitals of Germany,
which he reckons at twcnty-six, and
he is going to Moscow. Wilma, and

fatigue and may be said to stand at an
outside price, technically speaking. 1t
would be interesting TO know how the
Swede defines "capitals." Is he going
to Athens, Thebes. Corinth, Tiryns,
Mycen@, all the capitals of all the
islands, Is he to do Sybaris and
Tarentum, and the central city of each
state in the Latin league, and of each
medieval republic. How many capitals
and how many Kingdoms Of Burgundy9
How many capitals had Ireland in the
days of the numerous kings from whom
the present Celtic jewellers in the isle
are descendedP Why, even Scotland
has had several kingdoms and capitals,
and there must have been seven cap
itals in England during the heptarchy.
Perhaps the Swede's best plan would
be togo to "the capital of pleasures,
and stay there, as he can never win his

A Magnificent Mast.

A magnificent mast has been sent
from Verona to the agricultural de-
partment of the Turin exhibition. The
tree grew in the woods of Cadore, and
five other majestic pines had to be
hewn down before the one destined for
the mast could be removed. When
the lower branches had been cut off
this fine tree-trunk was divided into
two pieces, the bottom part measuring
more than 120 feet, and the top part,
still adorned with its green branches,
is feet. The weight of the tree, after
being thus prepared, was Al cwt. On ex-
aiming the base it WIS found that that
part was POS years old, while the sum-
NIT was only SO years old. The mast
was dragged from the forest to the sta
ton on two wagons, drawn by eight
horses, and the whole of it took up
seven railway trucks. Three days were
employed in the transport by rail, as
the special train could only travel by
daylight proceeding very slowly on
account OF the curves, and had to stop
continually, not being able to pass
another train. The mast is slender in
comparison to its height, being Is CEN
timeters at the base and ID at the sum-
NIT. The stem preserves an equal
width up to the height of about 80
feet, after which it diminishes rapidly.
Including the expense of transport, the
mast will cost more than ESQ. -NdpleS
