In the matter of CONNECTIONS, by the
way, New York, speaking after the man.
ner of men beats the world. They hardly
know what candy is in London, where
still obtains the antique and exploded
superstition that it is sort of pap pecu-
liarly suited to and designed for infancy.
A country where ice cream is rare and
novel compound, sold at fabulous prices
and by the wine-glass full, presents to
the American imagination difficulties in
the way of courtship and marriage which
might be expected to seriously check the
natural increase of the population; but
the untraveled Englishman has never yet
learned that sweets to the sweet is the
proper method Of bombarding maiden
hearts, and he seems to get the necessary
preliminaries settled some way in a
goodly number of cases unassisted by any
softer gastronomic influences than are
shed by his own indigestible plum pud-
ding.
The candy shops there are small and
humble places where the proprietor
gladly exchanges portion Of his simple
goods for a penny, or even fraction
thereof, instead Of refusing as do our
brilliant and lordly confectioners, to ne
gotiate for less than half pound of COM
pounds ranging from 80 cents to 81
pound. The idea of such airs in such a
business would be laughed to scorn. In
Paris they are in these respects somewhat
more civilized, and indeed it was from
Paris that we learned our early lessons in
the worship of sugar, but we have now
far outstripped our teachers both in the
number and splendor Of the shops and in
the expensiveness and variety of our con-
fections.-New York Graphic.

The japanese have acquired such q
passion for being tattooed that law has
been passed forbidding the marking Of

tattooed, and elaborate designs are traced
on many travellers as an indelible rem

The sons of the prince of Wales, when
here a few years ago were tattooed, and

How Many Trees Were Planted.
The Rural Californian takes excep-
ton to the HERALD's estimate of the
number of trees planted in Southern
California during the campaign just
drawing to a close. The figure was put
at round million for the whole coun.
try for all sorts Of fruit trees. This the
monthly thinks overshoots the mark by
fifty per cent. The HERALD knows II is
hard for the average new conner to get
a mental conception of the phenomenal
development going on in this region.
But the HERALD has wintered and sum.
mered here for a great many seasons,
aud generally hits the bulls eye in its fig
uring. The editor of the Rural in CON
versation with the compiler Of the
HERALD's figures, when they were pub
lished, said it was wide of the mark
$50 per cent in putting the plant of
orange trees at 100, 900.
His own publication gives data for
So, 900. Certainly there were $4,000
put in all over Southern California.
which were not returned. If the same
estimate were of the other trees the big
igures-l 900, 600 would loom up.
There is one item-the periodical re-
ferred to, which proves the correct
ness of the HERALD's figures. That
is that the Pomona nurseries alone sold
300. 900 trees. Win it be said on sober
second thought that Pomona has sold
full thiId of all the trees in Southern
California planted during the past sea.
son? Well, hardly. 1t Is hard to catch
the idea that this section has in single
season added 100. 900 acres to her fruit
area, but astounding as it may appear
it seems to be about the size of the thing.

Major Bonebrake in his recent adj
dress before the Board of Trade at the
close tf his year in office as President of
| that association, took occasion to figure
out the population of this city and
county. lie did this in a very ingenious
manner, taking the vote of 1850 and
that of last autumn, both, as he re-
marked, Presidential years, and the
United States census of the former year,
making the population of year ago the
required quantity and the fourth term in
the proportion. By this simple sum in
the "rule of three" the population of
this city is worked out to have been
81, O00-remember this is last Deem
Der. The new directory about to make
its appearance has nearly IL 900 names
on its pnges. Take the writer's case.
His name is Ton the list, )" the only one
in this domicile and there are four per-
sons in it. This is the usual average
for directories. This would give A.
900 as the population of the city. This
may be little too high, though the
writer greatly doubts it being far out of
the way. Certainly 40, 900 is nearer the
correct figure than $4,000,
There is one means of guessing
at our population not previously pointed
out-that is the magnitude of assemblies.
When Munhall preached in the taber-
nacle there were at least 5000 persons
present When the great anti.Chinese
meeting was held in the same
building there were not less

tival 1000 people took tickets to enter
at its door. There were nearly another
900 in the place during the evening
The city limits cover Il township Of
thirty.six square miles. The lines of
street ears pass only through the main
centers of population, and their service
here is limited. Large sections of the
population were not represented at any
of these meetings. AT Munhall's lee
lures only protestant religionists were
represented largely. At the Chinese
meeting only the mechanics and laborers
were out in great force. At the Flower
Festival similar restrictions could be
pointed out At all of them only adults
were present. In any city at any de
monstration it would be unusual for one
person in ten OF the entire population to
be present during one evening. These
facts all point to a population of GER
| tainly over 40, 900.

Young lady's family, for prudential
reasons, opposed the match, but, like
everybody who goes against real
ei hteen carat intense passion, the
family got left, and one night the young
folks we're happily married at the res
dence Of a cousin of the bride.
The sun shone brightly and the doves
cooed without sound OF moaning for a
year, when clouds began to fit across
the star OF love, and a separation en-
sued. The young lady had not become
reconciled to her family, and being pos
sessed Of an independent spirit, and
feeling within her the STRINGS of a
divine ambition which called her to
the stage, she obeyed it. After
nine months If hard study she made her
debut in San Francisco in the play of
Allandale, and was received favorably
by the theatre going public. As a tro-
