THE terrific dive which Miss Lizzie
Vaidis makes from the dome of the Los
Angeles Theater to the netting hung
over the parquet, is certainly most
thrilling performance. But we have
serious doubts of the propriety of en-
couraging these dangerous exhibitions.
The slightest accident to the netting, the
careless fastening of rope by an en-
ploye, or a miscaleulation on the part of
the performer, would result fatally. Liz.
zie is doubtless very brave girl,
and she has done the tremendous
feat so often with success that she
has perhaps come to look upon it as a
perfectly safe performance. Yet the his
tory of these daring trapeze performers
and air-volant artists is filed with mourn
full episodes. Two years ago trapese
girl was killed in Chicago by falling from
her aerial height. Numerous cases OF
fatal accident have been recorded in
other cities, and we believe there is a
point in these daring feats where the
authorities ought to step in and cry,
"Halt" 1t is only question of time
when Miss Lizzie will make fatal mis-.
take. The old adage generally holds
good in these cases:
Those who too often to the cistern go
Will break the jug by going once de trop.

COMING NEW WORDS.
A Dangerous Fad Affected by Poets, r
pOrters and Preachers.

A Dangerous Fad Affected by Poets, Re.
pOrters and Preachers.
DR.. Austin Phelps says that as very
sanity man can bear to be seen carry
ing a flask of brandy in the street, so
the reputation of very scholarly man
will bear occasional departures from
good English.
For instance, James Russell Lowell
may coin such words as ''cloudbergs,
"otherWorldliness" and ''Dr. Watsi-
ness, and Coleridge may coin 'smat-
ter-of-factness." An exceptional in
diligence is allowed to these scholarly
critics, though even they would scarce
ly expect to see such unlicensed coin
ing acknowledged by standard die
tionary.
The most fertile but certainly not the
best qualified coiners of new words are
found among reporters, who are forced
to write rapidly. They coin many
words by often adding the termination
''ize'' to substantives, for example:
''jeopardize,' ''municipalize," .char-
tize," "deputize'' and "burglarize. "
About one word in a hundred of re-
porters' coinage remains in circula-
ton; the rest are stamped as ''coun-
terfeit, even by newspaper readers,
and hardly pass dozen mouths.
Preachers are also addicted to coin
/ ing new words. Their method is to
join two good words by means of hy-
phen. Every Sunday their hearers,
who love monosyllabic words which
are both forcible and correct, are irri-
tated at hearing such hybrids as
theaven-descended," ''soul-destroy-
ing" ''God-fearing' and 'God-defy.

Professor Phelps aptly calls such
words ''long-winded, long-waisted.

Who does not put in the whole wear N

sure that our change in circumstances

man will have his own meat and bread

change have no hope of seeing anv

Let our farmers all read and prae.
tice the teachings given in some Of
our good agricultural journals, and
give up the prejudice they entertain
for boOk-farmers, and teach their sons
at home that brains are as necessary
for farmer as for lawyer or doctor.
and I feel confident that such as follow
this course will soon be so rewarded
that others, seeing the effect, will fol-
low their example.
The field for Improvement is vide
very wide, and it remains only for
the down-trodden and oppressed
farmers of our land to make one
grand rally, in order to bring order
out of confusion, and restore this fair
land to its once prosperous condition.
Will they make that rally? They
alone can make it, and Cd their heads
be the consequences either for veal Or
woe. A few short years. and all Of as
are lost, if we continue to follow the
present pernicious system. A change
can not make it worse for us. Try 1t
and see. If we mean to be free, wa
must make a proper use of the means
which have been put in our hands.

and gentlemen, and the services following
were similar to those of any other denomi-
nation, after which sacrament was parta-
ken of and was passed to the entire con-
gregation, everybody partaking even unto
Indians, several being present. We took
our departure from the City of the Great
Salt Lake at $40 P. NJ. Sunday and our
train follows the border of the Lake for
several miles, which gives US a chance to
see the waters of this noted body. We
change cars at Ogden at 6 30 and are soen
speeding our way through Utah aud Ne
yada. We cross the Sierra Neyadas Mon
day night passing some excellent scenery,
and wind through a snowshed about AZ
miles in length. We arrive at Sacramento
at 4.30 A. M. Tuesday and remain here
until 9.25,A. NJ. On taking a walk through
the city we find it to be full of business
with about 40, 900 inhabitants. Here we
saw peas, beans, s~quashes, cabbage and
all vegetable production in market together
with lots of fruit. In passing south
from here into the Sacramento and San
joaquin valley we pass through the finest
and most enterprising farming community
that the writer has ever CHANGED to see,
for which he must admit that New Jersey
will have to take second place. The farm
ers are principally engaged in sowing
wheat. We arrive at Los Angeles at $50
Wednesday morning and change cars for
San Diego at 9.1o and arrive at the last
named place at 4.50 P. NJ. Wednesday. In
making an estimate OF orr travel we find
that that we haye travelled from Timnath,
Colorado, to San Diego, Colorado, about
$3.50 miles, and in the entire compass from
the Atlantic to the Pacific have travelled
Also miles, quite a little ride. San Diego
we found very dull and entirely oyerrun by
immigration. We take our departure for
a little town fifteen miles southeast named
Elcajon, where we arrive about 9 A. NJ.

The expense of the Inauguration ball,
together with the alleged evil effects of
dancing, has aroused the ire of some local
clergymen as well as those of the west.
They seem to regard the ball as a sort of
of evil, a sort of a carnival of sin. 1t may
not be understood by these good people
that The ball is entirely a private affair
toward which the Government pays not
one dollar. The people who ''pay the
fiddler therefore, have only a personal
and private responsibility, and General
Harrison cannot be held as responsible.
A great many stories are told about
Secretary Whitney that serve TO leave a
pleasant impression Of the man. During
the last campaign he was waited upon
late in October by a hungry assessment
committee with a doleful tale OF the i'm
possibility of getting the employees of the
Navy Department to give any more money.
The Secretary had already given, it is ru-
mored. over $50. 900. sWell," he said i'm
patiently, IL can't choke it ont of them.
How much did you expect to get9" They
told him that So, 900 more had been hoped
for. He turned to his check book and
made out his check for the amount, cheer
fully asking the committee to give the
Navy Department Il breathing spell, and
let the clerks get enough together to pay
their board.
Among the curious patents issued recent
ly is one to Gillette, the actor author, for
the stage effect representing the clatter of
horses feet, which has been SO much used
in recent plays. The issuance Of this
patent establishes the right to patent any
stage trick, even if it be as simple as pro.
ducing thunder. In other words, no man
can steal another mans thunder with i'm
punity. WESTON.

Attorney General Stockton on Monday
issued his annual report for the year 1883.
The most important fact which it shows is
that the system of railroad taxation adopt
cd by the Legislature in 1884 is now work
ing successfully. The formidable combina-
ton, embracing over thilty-five corpora
tions, which has contested every point
from the constitutionality of the law to the
minutest elements which constitute valua-
ton, has entirely disappeared during the
mast wear. Thu arbitration in the matter
of the arrears of the Morris aud Essex
Railroad Company will be completed short
ly. The Central Railroad Company has
settled the unpaid balances of State taxes,
extending from 1876 to 1883, amounting to
7 i,5l4.70.
