A T-Party.

She twirled upon her tip-toes light,
Tossed back her tangled tresses bright,
And cried: 'Im truly tired of play;
I'll have tea-party to-daym
She set the table meath tree,
With tempting tarts, and toast, and tea.
Ten tiny cups upon the tray,
Ten plates and spoons in trim array,
Ten twinkling tapers thin and tall,
And then the feast was ready all.
The thrushes trilled and twittered sweet,
The turf was tender meath her feet,
Her tidy cap with lace was trimmed,
Her tasteful gown was tucked and trimmed.
"Now, here am I, and here's the treat"
She cried: "but who is there to eats
I'm very thirsty for my tea
l think I'll be the company"
And slipping now and tasting then,
She ate and drank for all the ten

When we DemoraIizs the Stomach

BY excuses or imprudence in eating, we can
not hope TO escape the consequences for any
great length OF time. The most robust diges-
function. But supposing that we have been
foolish enough to enfeeble the stomach, is the
damage irreparable? BY no means. The dys.
peptic has only TO do two things to insure his
ultimate recovery. First, he should adopt an
easily digested diet. Second, he should use
with regularity and persistence Hostetters
Stomach Bitters, the leading gastric invigorant
eff the age. The multiform symptoms OF dys-
pepsia, and the almost invariably attendant dis
orders, biliousness and constipation, will as
suredly cease to prosecute the sufferer IL the
above advice is attended to. Who that has
suffered the tOrments that chronic indigestion
intiicts will neglect to take advantage of a
remedy which, il the most positive evidence of
the medical profession and tho public is TO be
received with due credence, Is an absolute
specific for the complaint.

ROODLER NIcQUADE.
Sentenced to Seven Years ana
$4,000 Fine.


NEW YORK, December 20.-Ex.Alder-
man McQuade was, this morning, SEN
fenced to nine years imprisonment and
to pay a fine OF $4,000.
The Recorder said, in sentencing Nc
Quade: "Arthur j. McQuade, you have
been fairly and justly convicted of brib-
cry. You were elected to perform a
public duty and public trust. Instead
of doing so you violated that trust.
Your character as business man, citizen,
father, husband is good. l have SYM
pathy for your wife and family. You
should have considered them before you
did wrong. You did not add to the
crime of which you have been convicted
of, as did Jaehne, by taking the stand
and committing perjury. | have reason
to believe YOU received as much money
as Duffy did, $4,000. That money is
not yours. 1t is not the property of
your family. Ii it is left with them 1T
will work the inevitable result of ill'got-
ten gain. l would advise you to give up
and pay back to the city the money
which you received, and 1 have no
doubt it would work to your benefit
The sentence of the court is that you be
confined in the State prison at hard Ia
bor for the term of seven years, and that
you pay fine of $4,000.
During the sentence McQuade stood
up with his arms folded across his
bosom in the manner habitual to him.
McQuade was Immediately taken to the
Tombs, and, after the usual tormalitles,
was locked in cell.

THE HOMESTEAD LAW.
A Recent Erroneous Decision
of Judge Blair.

WASHINGTON, December 20.-Com.
missioner Sparks, of the Gener Land
Office, has received letter from law
firm at West Plains, Mo-, enclosing
newspaper paragraph stating that Judge
Blair, of Wyoming, instructed jury
in recent case that a person who has
made homestead entry and commuted
it to cash and afterwards made another
homestead entry, is. not guilty of per-
jury in swearing in the second case
that he had not previously had the
benefit of the homestead laws; and
that in giving this instruction
Judge Blair decided that a person who
does not thereby exhaust his rights un-
der the homestead law. In respose to
this letter Commissioner Sparks says
that if such decision has been made it
will have no effect whatever, unless it
may be to induce ignorant persons to
make fraudulent entries. By section
$3.50 of the Revised Statutes, says the
Commissioner, one homestead entry
only can be made by one person, and by
section 229S the Communication or that
entry to cash does not enable him to
make another homestead entry, and any
decision to the contrary would be in
direct violation and contempt of the
statute, and in Judge Blair has made the
decision attributed to him it will not be
recognized or respected by this Office.

SACRAMENTO, December 20.-Judge
Mcfarland to-day rendered decision in
the case of A. j. Stevens and j. 4. Wat.
son VS.. the California Iron and Steet
Company in favor of the plaintiffs.
The plaintiffs some years ago purchased
$4,000 worth of stock (S7500 each) on
representation of the agent of said
company that it was doing first-class
business and was in hourishing condi-
tion. Finding the business was not as
represented, plaintiffs sued the company
for their investment, claiming that the
money was obtained by fraudulent rep.
reservations, and that, instead of the
company being in iourishing condition,
stock was running down fast. The de-
cision is recognized as being very inn
portant one,

ney yesterday. The case took from .
till P. NJ, and from till IL P. M,
when it was submitted to the jury. The
evidence showed that the lady had not
fired the stubble with malicious intent,
but that the blaze spread and got be-
yond her control by reason of sudden
breeze springing up. The jury promptly
acquitted her after being out about five
minutes,

SENATOR STANFORD
Again Interviewed on the Inicr.
state Commerce Bill.

CHICAGO, December 20.--The Wash.
ington correspondent of the Daily Tete-
gram had an interview with Senator
Stanford on the pending Interstate
Commerce bill. The Senator said: '1t
will have injurious effect on the Pacific
Coast. What the merchant of the
Pacific Coast wants, like merchants in
all other portions of the country, is reg.
ularity OF freight rates in most of the
merchandise he deals in. Fluctuations
of freights disturb trade and cause loss
of profits to shippers who have not had
advantages of the lowest figures. Long
experience has shown that the present
system of pooling is the best method.
The long and short haul provision of the
bill will prohibit railroads from doing
wholesale business and the shippers at
the competing points will lose the ad-
vantage of competition. Take the
farmer, for example, who has his crop
to ship to market: if he lives four miles
from one road and eight from another,
he will haul his produce a longer dis
tance if the railroad there will carry it
at less than half the price that will be
charged by the road that is nearer. Un:
der this bill the road will be compelled
to charge him proportionate rate for
longer distance. The road will not suf-
fer but the producer and consumer will,
for one will get less for his product and
the latter will be compelled to pay more:
Men who are engaged in railroads should
be allowed to control their property just
as much as if they had invested it IN a
whisky mill instead"

Denies the soft Impeach Inent.

CHICAGO, December 20.--A communi.
cation dated New York has been re.
ceived by the general manager of the
Associated Press from Rev. j. Spencer
Kennard, objecting to the use of his
name ir the dispatch sent out on the
night of the 10Th, describing the appear.
ance of several clergymen at repre-
sentation of the opera "Galatea" and the
afterpiece of Rubenstein's bal costume.
for the purpose of passing Judgment on
the ballet. MIR. kennard says. As |
have been in this city for the past two
months and was not within nine hum
dred miles OF that ballet last Thursday
evening, it is plain that the reporter was
in error. The character of the dispatch
was such as will do me great damage
wherever it goes, bringing my name into
contempt and crippling my influence.
In simple justice you are under obliga.
tion to correct the matter at the earliest
moment through your dispatches to the
same papers," Mr.. Kennard is entitled
to the correction. The list of clergymen
was made up from the invitations that
were presented at the box office in ex.
change for seats, the management kept
the envelopes and from them made out
the list which were supplied to the
press, and improperly included the
name of Mr.. Kennard.

London VIII eat Market.

LONDON, December 20.-The Mark
Lane Erpress in its weekly review of the
British grain trade, says; Heavy rain
fall early in the week interfered with
work; later frost benefited the crops.
Deliveries of English wheat continues
small. In the provisional markets prices
advanced a shilling and there is prospect
of q continued rise. In the London mar.
ket the demand for English white wheat
has been better and rates advanced 6
pence. The calls for wheat during the
week amounted to 63,S66 quarters at 33s
4d, against 60, $50 quarters at 30s sd for
the corresponding period OF last
year. The prices for foreign
wheat are hardening and there is moth
ing to prevent the material advance dur
ing the next three months, except a
large shipment from the United States.
One cargo of California grain arrived off
the coast. Flour was iu better demand
and pence dearer; beans and peas were
shilling dearer to-day and a moderate
business was done. Wheat was steady
at an advance of shilling for English
and pence to shilling for foreign
American. Round corn was pence
dearer. Barleys were 3 pence dearer
and steady. Oats were in better inquiry
with prices against buyers. Beans and
peas advanced 6 pence. Linseed was

sensation occurred in the Superior Court
to-day during the trial of the Biddle
will case. j. w. Wilcox, a noted Mari
posa blacksmith, was on the stand testi.
flying to the character of Mrs. Swaney,
of San Froncisco, who had been wit.
ness for the contestant. In cross.exam.
inaton by Mr.. Crittenden a ruling was
made by the court to which Crittenden
excepted, giving reasons. For giving
reasons the court reprimanded the at
torney, saying he coald except the repri.
mand if he chose, to which Crittenden
replied: 81 certainly do except it as en-.
tirely uncalled for" This was regarded
as repetition of the offense, when the
court ordered fine entered of 5000 for
contempt, and that he (Crittenden) be
committed at the rate of 81 per day un-
til the fine is paid. Crittenden replied
that he thought he had right to make
an exception in the manner he did, and
certainly he had no thought of disre.
spect to the court.
