rates by the republicans, the democrats can find enough with which to make life unpleasant for them and keep them within the straight and narrow path. There should be no democratic cooperation with any republican bolters, nor any dispo- sition to help them in their strike for pa tronage or the direction of legislation. One of Brower's professed schemes is a raid on the internal revenue laws, and in this he should find no countenance from the dem ocrats. If the republicans wish to take the taxes off whiskey and tobacco, while the things men eat and the clothes they wear carry tariff tax, let them do it, but dem ocrats should have.no part in such legls- lation. While coal for our manufactures is taxed and lumber for our buildings and
 wool for our clothing carry heavy duties,
 while iron and steel are taxed for the
 benefit of tariff barons the people will
 have little sympathy for a policy that pro
 poses to lift taxes that every man can
 avoid for himself. The tax on whiskey
 and the tax on tobacco, the chief remain
 ino internal taxes inherited from the war,
 are not oppressive to the multitude, and
 men who desire to indulge their appetite for these luxuries should not object to being taxed for them. When Brewer and Houk and other congressman from the moonshiner districts of the south make their raid on the internal revenue laws, when they seek relief from government espionage in the prosecution of their illicit
 business, let democrats hold carefully
 aloof from any sympathy or cooperation
 with such a policy.
 If the southern republican congressman
 find it to theil interest to bluff the admin istration by threatened revolts or the inau- guration of disastrous legislative policies, the democrats can afford not to interfere But they cannot afford to mix up in repub. lican quarrels CT divide responsibility with
 the majority for unpopular or unwise legislation. Congressman Brower will find no help in the democratic party. Southern republican bolters must go Il alone.

HOUSEHOLD INFORMATION.

BLUEINa is added to the water In which linen is washed to neutralize the dull yell low tint which clean linen always possesses.
 TAN shoes can be cleaned as follows: Dissolve tablespoonful of soda in warm water, and an ounce of salts of lemon in 8 pint of cold water mix these two together and wash the shoes. Wipe and rub as dry as possible.
 BERRY PUFFs.-One egg, one cupful of flour, one cupfuI of milk, butter the size of a walnut, and a pinch of salt. Beat very thoroughly, add one cupful of berries, and bake in quick oven in greased cups or the little glazed jars that come for the purpose.
 DRY wood gives a hotter fire, and is more economical to burn than green wood, be- cause the latter contains more water, and a large part of the heat of the fire is wasted in converting it into steam, which passes of up the chimney, thus carrying the heat into the outer air, where it is wasted.
 BAKING powders are mixtures of chemic- als which, when moistened, hberate car bonic acid gas. They are added to flour used in bread-making, so that the gas, as 1t escapes, may puff up the dough, rendering 1t spongy and light. Yeast serves the same purpose by causing fermentation in the flour, which also develops carbonic acid gas.
 THOSE living in localities where mosqui- toes are troublesome may make trial Of the following recipe for expelling these pests from the house: Take piece of gum camphor, in size about the third of a hens egg, and slowly evaporate it by holding it In shovel or tin vessel over lamp, taking care that it does not ignite. The smoke will soon fill the room and expel the mosquitoes, and it is said they will not return, even though the windows should be left open all night.

A veterinary surgeon was called in, who made an examination and then pronounced it simply case of nervousness. "Strap up the other hind foot and you'll see," he said.

Patti BECOMES Nicolini.

Patti has done thing which will be
much talked about. The world knew of
her companionship with the tenor, Nico-
lini, and that during its continuance
there were in existence Nine. Nicolini
and several little Nicolinis. Gossip had
it that these deserted ones, owing TO the
generosity OF the charming Adelina, did
not suffer. Recently a divorce, with a
financial compact as its basis, WAS re-
cured, and then the recognized
queen of song was legally bound to
Nicolini. That this proceeding die
not cause any rupture in this
dual family arrangement was demon
strated by the fact that Nicolini's two
sons, who are LieutenantH in the French
army, continued to make visits to Patt
! in her castle in Wales. Now comes the
latest news in the strange narrative. Or

KILLED ON THE RAILS.
A Terrible Accident Near the Unf-
veFsitY.

Terrible Accident Near the Uni
versity.
AS the noon train for Santa Monica
was approaching University Station yes
terday afternoon, the Southern Pacific's
agent there saw the driver of two.
horse bakery wagon coming down the
street, evidently with the intention of
crossing the track. He ran out and
shouted to the teamster who, at first
pulled up, but then doubtless thinking
that he could get across, urged his
horses on to the rails. Like thousands
of others, however, he misjudged the
amount of space running train can
cover in few seconds for, although the
engineer, being in the city limits was going
slowly, the rate was fast enough to catch
the vehicle before it had time to get
across. There was crash and the hor-
ror-stricken onlookers saw horses and
man cut down as if by scythe, and lit
orally torn to pieces. Coroner Meredith
was at once summoned to the scene, and
after investigating decided to postpone
the inquest until 10 O'Clock this morning,
SO as to give the railroad men an oppor-
tunity to be on hand. The deceased
proved to be Knauff, q native OF Ger
many, 35 years of age and unmarried.
Be was in partnership with his brother,
Henry Knauff, in the bakery at 752 South

FROM HONOLULU.
Pearl HarbOr and the Removal of
It's Distractions.

SAN Francisco, March 15.-Advices
from Honolulu per bark arriving to-day,
state that nothing has been done with the
Pearl harbor coaling station by the
United States Government since the con-
cession was made, except to make a
thorough survey of the harbor six months
ago. A coral reef now extends around
the entrance of the harbor, and it is
impossible for vessel of any size
to enter. The reef will have to. be re.
moved at great expense by blasting, but
if this were done Pearl harbor would be
one of the finest in the world, and large
enough to float any number of vessels.
1t is thought at the United States Con-
sulate there that the Government will
not take any steps soon to improve the
harbor, as there is already coaling
station at Honolulu, which is
leased by the Government. At pres
ent, however, the supply of coal
at that station is exhausted and Ameri-
can war vessels are obliged to obtain
their coal from private sources there.
The Alert is there now.
A violent wind storm has lately visited

and the Good Ii Will DO.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 15.-The storm
is still raging throughout the State. Al
Sacramento the river has risen nineteen
feet above low water mark. Following is
the fall at the principal points for the
past twenty-four hours: San Francisco

Delano O4, Cotton .73, Santa Monica .35,
Sacramento .06, Merced .07, Fresno .25,
Marysville .05, Chico .25.
The heavy rain has resulted in consid-
erable damage to merchants along the
lower section of the business portion of
the city, especially on Fort, Pine and
Davis streets. The sewers have been
inadequate to carry off the rainwater,
and the unusually high tides have pre-
vented the sewers emptying their con-
tents into the bay. Consequently, they
overfowed and filed the easements OF
buildings, inflicting heavy loss on goods
stored therein.
1t is reported here to-day that an old
break in the Sacramento levee, one mile
below Knights Landing, is again open,
and that the water is backing up into
the town. A number of farms have been
flooded and stock drowned. Guards
have been stationed along the river for
about three miles to watch for breaks.
FRESNO, March 15-Up to this even
ing the total rainfall for the season is
559. This is the greatest corresponding
rainfall ever known since the settlement
Of this section. The prospects are that
the rain will continue to fall during the
night. There are between 250, 1000 and
300, 10000 acres of grain sown in Fresno
county this year.
VIsAIIA, March 15.-Steadv rain since
II this morning; half an inch for the
storm. Farmers prophesy the greatest
season since 1879.
HoLLIsTER, CAL, March 15.-Three-
quarters of an inch of rain fell this
morning. The weather is still threat
ening.
SANTA BARBARA, March 15.-Rain be-
gan falling again this morning, and two
inches had fallen up to o'clock tonight,
making 5.24 inches for the storm. Eight
hundred feet of the track of the Ventura
division of the Southern Pacific was
washed out at Rincon. The wind blew
gale here to-day. The large liberty
pole was blown down.
SAN BERNARDINo, CAL, March 15.-The
rainfall for this storm amounts to five
inches. Indications are good for more
rain tonight. The creeks and rivers are
high.
SAN DIEGO, March 15-This city was
visited all the afternoon by a terrific
wind and rain storm, the water coming
down in torrents during the prevalence
OF the gale. The schoolhouse, two.story
frame structure in Reed & Hubbell's
addition, was blown down. Most of the
children had fortunately been dismissed
for the day. Miss Norma Treyschleg,
one of the teachers, and one of the pu-
pills, Emma Worthing, are reported Sc
riously injured.

ANICE LITTLE SCHEME.
How Three European Powers Par
titioued the Pacific Islands.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 15.-An even
ing paper publishes private inverview
with gentleman now in the city, who
claims to have official reasons for know
ing the inwardness of the Samoan COM
plication. He says: This Samoan
trouble is only the outcome of policy
long since agreed upon between England,
France and Germany. Laying the minor
features aside, New Caledonia was to be
allotted to France, Samoa to Germany,
and the Hawaiian Islands to England %
Many arguments are advanced for the
purpose of showing that the policy OF
these governments, from then until now
has been to gain possession of these re.
spective islands.
Speaking with special reference to the
Hawaiian Islands, this authority says
ga scheme is on foot by English parties
to buy up one of the Hawaiian Islands
entire; then to lay cable from Van
couver over to it-when the cable is
laid. This is supposed tobe in the inter
est of the English government.
