Ems RECORD UNION The Forster House
at Cottonwood, Shasta county, took fire
from some cause at present unknown, at
about half-past Il o'clock last night, and in
an almost incredible short space Of time
was consumed. The hour being so late,
most of the citizens had gone to bed. and
ere they could be aroused to consciousness
that there was fire in town, it was too far
advanced for any available endeavor to
check it, 1t was with great difficulty 9iat
Becker L Forster's store and several other
buildings were saved. Had not the night
been very calm. the entire business portion
of town would have shared the fate of that
old, weli-known and popular hotel. The
citizens, for the little time they had and the
small facilities at their command, worked
IKE heroes. The house was built by Jacob
Forster some twenty years ago, and about
three years ag2 was purchased by Peter
Kleiemaih who is now lying very low in
San Francisco, where he went several
weeks ago in hopes to improve his health
The loss : estimated at over $4,000. As

A MAN was very seriously wounded on
Sunday at San Francisco in a public gar
den, by the edge of a keen sword swung by
powerful athlete. The two, partly clad
in steel armor, were engaged in lance
and saber contest for the amusement of the
public. By some mischance the helmet of
one of the contestants fell off, and the
saber " cut two at cavalry" of his opponent
struck him back of the ear and fractured
his skull. The man who swung the saber
declares that he saw the helmet tilt, but
could not stay the blow. He, however,
SAYS he Iessened its force all he could, and
thereby saved the life of his opponent, for
had the saber descended with full force the
head of the unfortunate man must have
been stricken off and have rolled to the
ground" As it is, Captain Jennings is
very dangerously wounded. The occur
renee suggests the thought that all such
contests with dangerous weapons should be
prohibited There certainly was no neces-
sity for Ross to use a saber so sharp that,
had he not checked the force of the blow,
Captain Jennings head must have rolled
to the ground" Nor can there be given
any reason why Jennings should have car
ried lance so pointed as to penetrate a
cuirass any less stout than steel-plated and
corll-lined If it is desirable or profitable
to exhibit skill in cavalry lance and sword
practice, why Will not L dulled saber, or
even one Of stout wood answer every pur-
pose; and why viii not lance b!unted or
with mufiled head Go as we'll as one steel
tipped? Such contests at best, and under
even these suggested precautions, must be
dangerous. 1t is the element of danger in
them that attracts the morbid crowd, and
they are therefore of bad influence upon
the public mind. san Francisco and all
other cities should by ordinance prohibit
these dangerous and profitless sports, class
ing saber-cutting lance practice, rope
walking at great nights and all similar
exhibitions together

An American can form some idea Of the
real significance Of jules Ferry's fall from
the Ministry in France by the statement of
the fact in the news of the day, that the
mob gathered beneath his windows and
hooted him, while the Socialists were
made dr,'nk with Joy over his retirement
so much were their hopes revived of
oyerthrowing the republic. One radical
sheet actually went so far as to demand
the punishment Of all the Ministers be-
cause body of French troops in Tonquin
met with disaster, and the same journal
boldly demanded that Ferry's property be
contiscated, as well as that of all the Sen
ators and Deputies who supported his
policy.

WHETHER FL Makki has left arm
longer by some parts of an inch than his
right, and if so, whether it is longer than
the left arm of Fl Mahdi, the news does
not inform us. But we do know that Ell
Makki is the new false prophet, who has
arisen and deneunces FL Mahdi as an i'm
poster. Makki has already very consid-
cradle following \ religious fanatie-fraud
never yet lacked for some followers. The
chief significance of the rise of Ell Makki
against the long-armed boat-builder of
Dongola, is the division that he may effect
among the SoUdanese, and the weakness
that, as a consequence, must be felt by II
Mahdi. There are many reasons to be-
iieye that the latter doughty warrior is BY
no means as influential TODAY in the SOU
dan as he was year ago. Many of his
prophecies have proven deceitfui, and this
has shaken faith in his claim that he bears
divine credentials He has not achieved
the great victories he promised his follow
ers; and his armies have suffered vastly
more than he calculated. He has, it is
very true, checked the English advance
and kept Egypt at bay, but his promise
was to carry his flag to Cairo ard dominate
not only all Egypt, but to make the Chris
tian dogs on all the earth Go obeisancc to
him; and in this promise his deluded fol-
lowers have placed full reliance.

Wanted, an Improved Stirrup.

''The inventive talent of the country
has not vet discovered combination of
perfect comfort with perfect safety in
the manufacture of stirrups," said New
York dealer in saddlery goods TO Sun
reporter. There is quite a variety in
stirrups, however, and number of pat
ents have been issued on various changes
in form which were supposed to be i'm
provements. Among these is one called
the park stirrup. The new troop of
hussars in this city uses it. The bottom
of the stirrup is hung on pivot, so that
it can turn down behind, and probably
throw the foot out in case the horseman
should be unseated. The foot rest is
very narrow. \ new and much more
comfortable stirrup for ladies' saddles is
a metal slipper lined with satin, but if a
lady ever falls from horse without first
extricating her foot from the stirrup her
chance of escape will be very small.
''The ideal stirrup should have such
large foot-rest that it would hold the en-
tire soul of a mans boot, and yet free
the foot instantly if the rider were
thrown. The cowboy stirrup, made of a
bent hoop of hickory nearly two feet long
and six inches wide is probably the best
made, but its appearance prohibits its
use in civilized communities. 1t seems
to me that making stirrup in the shape
of hoop is a fatal practice, but no one
has yet offered better shape"

WISE WORDS.

Frugality provides an easy chair for
old age.
Any truth, faithfully faced, is strength
in itself,
Cheerfulness is the daughter of EN-.
ployment.
One of the greatest blessings you can
enjoy is tender, honest, enlightened
conscience.
Thou art in the end what thou art.
Put on wigs with millions of curls, set
your foot upon ell-hgh rocks, thou
aoidest ever-what thou art.
Resolve to edge in a little reading
every day, fit is but single sentence !;
II you gain fifteen minutes dav, it will
make itself felt at the end of the year.
A happiness that is quite undisturbed
becomes tiresome; we must have ups
and downs; the difficulties which are
mingled with love awaken passion and
increase pleasure.
II can do what like with my colors
now," said the proud young scholar.
80 could | at your age" answered the
master, "but now l can only do what
other people like"
Let us never forget that every station
in life is necessary; that each deserves
our respect; that not the station itself,
but the worthy fulhlment of its duties,
does honor to man.
Blessed be the hand that prepares
pleasure for child for there is no say
ing when and where it may again bloom
forth. Does not almost everybody re-
member some kind-hearted man who
showed him kindness in the quiet days
of his childhood
1t has been we'll said that "without
courage there can be no truth, and with
out truth there can be no other virtue"
Let parents beware, then, lest they make
the training of their children a culture
of towards, and, by checking courage
and independence, provoke their little
ones to tricllery and to the falsehood of
feaf.

connecting those almost impossible
mountain systems of Asia, the Than
Shan and Altai on the north, with the
Hindoo Koosh and Ilimalayas on the
south. Here history places the cradle of
European races. Here lived our Aryan
forefathers, who, leaving their Pamir
slopes, followed great rivers westward,
and finally pastured their herd in Eu-

descendants, the Slavs and Anglo

supremacy of Asia upon the historic
ground from which their primitive
progenitors are believed to have mi
