Pests, in letter to Mayor Gregory, says:
{" Yours of the 14th instant, in regard to
the cottony cushion scale, at hand. | am
glad to learn that some action will be
taken in the matter of suppressing it. I
have continually called attention to its
danger in Sacramento, but so far my advice
met with no attention. The two best rem
edies l know of are the resin solution, of
which l give receipts inclosed, and the
other is the gas process, but the latter re-
quires much outlay. | think l can do no
better than to come up next week and in
struct the person you may select for the
work.
Mayor Gregory said he had an interview
with Mr.. Klee on Friday last in regard to
the cottony cushion scale, which seems to
have got firm hold on the shrubbery and
fruit trees in the northern portion of the
city. Mr.. Klee informed him that unless
the scale was exterminated Immediately, in
less than two years the shrubbery of the
city would be destroyed Badly infected
orange and acacia trees he said should be
destroyed. The Mayor and Mr. Klee will
go about the city to-day on tour of inspec-
ton.
The Board decided to order the tax levy
for the fire department. as ordered by Judge

POWER OF LUClGEN.
Dom PiGH.

New Light Which Is Twelve Times as
Cheap Gas.
A very successful demonstration of
its Qucigen) great lighting powers was
recently given at the Crystal Palace.
The method of producing this light
consists in forming an intimate mixture
of air and minutely divided oil particles,
resulting, when ignited, in continu-
Gus, steady flame of great brightness.
The mechanism. which is very simple,
is worked by small supply of COM,
pressed air and the flame is under per-
feet control by merely turning a tap.
AS the light is produced by the COM,
bustion of crude and waste oils, its cost
is, by actual measurement by the official
gas analyst for Glasgow, found to be.
from one-tenth to one-twelfth the cost.
of gas, and about one-twentieth that of,
electric light of the same actual candle,
power. 1t is stated that an area of half.
square mile can be flooded with light
equal to daylight at an expenditure of;
one shilling and threepence per hour
The great value of this light lies in
its diffusiveness, which adapts it so
admirably for use on works or where;
any outdoor operations have to be
carried on at night A naked arc lamp
in room is so binding that work can
not be done; but when an opalescent
globe is placed over it, so as to reduce
the intensity, the eye sees details in the
room much better, although the opales-
cent globe has cut off three-quarters of
the light. The effect of the lucigen may
be imagined, as it is said to produce
flame of three thousand actual candle
power, or equal to six large arc lamps,
while its radiative surface is about three
hundred and fifty square inches, as
against one square-inch for the are
lamp. The result is that the lucigen
gives light of quality highly effect
i've for working purposes.
The lucigen marks the latest advance
in the history of the production of light
from carbonaceous substances, as not
only does it raise the carbon particles
to the most intense white heat, but the
form of the flame is such as to retain
them in that condition for the longest
period.
The lucigen has been adopted at
large mum Der of works in this country,
including those of the Fourth Bridge,
and it is also in use by the French gov
ernment for military operations.-Iroaa

TOlLER's CHRISTMAS HYMN.

Ihave a faith that holds my life
Above the slough of SIM
That stills the angry waves of strife,
And gives me peace within;
1t is the story of the morn,
From Heaven inspired pen,
That tells to all how Christ was born
To walk the earth with men.
The shepherds meath the starry sky
Heard, tar beyond their ken,
The glory sung to God on high,
Good will and peace to men;
They saw tie dawn in roseate light
Sweep back the ages gloom,
And Heavens love cleave pure and bright
The pathway from the tomb.
Not for the mobiles purple clad,
Not for the kingly crowned,
Came Christ from Goa, with tidings glad
That our salvation found;
He sought the lowly, poor, opprcssed;
In hovel, hut and cave
And made the to1ling millions blessed,
In triumph Ger the grave.
AS Moses smote the rock of old
He touched the human heart,
And from its center, hard and cold,
Saw loves sweet waters start;
His emblem was the palm, not rod,
And, oh He taught us then,
The way to win the love of God
Is through the love Of men.
Oh brother toiler, lift your head,
Nor heed earth's cruel blows;
The Christ who ate our bitter bread
And sorrowed DER our woes,
Is yet our friend of humble birth,
And holds His blessings nigh,
For He who shared our homes on earth,
Has homes for US on high.
