m Il NE MISSION VALLEY. ].
Historic Buildings in California Slowly
Crum blina. 70 Ruin. gfs 2sH3s3


E Crumbling to Ruin.
Fremont Wood says, II a recent arti.
Gle. the slow, gradual crumbIng to
ruin OF the several historic mission
buildings in California has for many
years been source Of much regre,
among enthusiastic an tiquarians. Able
writer's, both at home and abroad
tourists, historians and travelling cor
respondent, have greatly lamenred it.
Decades ago the same feelings OF re-
greet were borne, more sharply, per-
haps, by the patient, self-sacriticing
Franciscan Fathers who beheld with
great misgivings the inevitable demo
lition of their cherished works.
The present mission buildings OF San
Diego, or rather the ruins of the build
ings, were commenced in 1776. The
mission church was dedicated Novem-
Der IL. 1777, but was not entirely com
pleted until the year 1884.
WHAT'S known as the Mission Valley
is situated three miles north of the
business center Of San Diego. Through
it runs the San Diego River. 1t may
be reached either by way Of Old Town,
which lies at the mouth of the valley,
or by the road over the mesa and new
grade, which enters it two miles further
up. The valley, which varies from one
half to one mile III width, is about six
miles in length. The old mission
church is located near its eastern
terminus. The Mission buildings stand
on an eminence at a point which COM
mands splendid view Of the entire
valley to the sea on one side, and of the
mountains on the other. The main
building is about ninty feet long, and
extends from the north to the south,
the main entrance being at the south
end. The walls, built Of adobe, are
very massive, being in this main
about four feet in thickness. The
door and window caslngs are made
Of burnt tiles. At right angles with the
main building, forming wing extend
ing eastward are the outbuildings,
constructed Of the same material used
i'll the main building. At she rear OF
these outbuildings and east Of the main
edifice an adobe wall incloses the Gus
tolnary court yard.

The Virtue in salads.

NJ. Henri de Vilmorin, president of the
Botanical society of France, says the Chi
cago News, recently lectured before the
Royal horticultural society ON the subject
of salads. He spoke of the nutritive value
of salads due to the potash salts,
which, though present in vegetables gener-
ally. are eliminated in the process of
cooking. These are some of the plants he
enumerated as being used in France for
salads: lettuce, corn salad, common chic
ory, barbe de capucin, cur.ed and Batavian
endlves, dandelion in its several forms of
green, watercresses, pnrslane in small
quantities, blanched satisfy tops, Brussels
chicory, the roots of celeriac, hampton and
radish, the bulbs of stamps, the stalks
of celery, the flowers of mas
turtium and yucca, the fruit of cap
sicum and tomato. and. in the south
of France, rocket, pieridium and Spanish
onions. Various herbs are added to a
French salad to garnish and flavor it
chervil, chives, shallot and borage flowers.
In addition. many boiled vegetables are
dressed with vinegar and oil. The lecturer
exhibited specimens of dandelion, barbe de
capucin, and witloof, both varieties of
chicories. which he commended to the
notice Of gardeners as most useful and pal
atable.

South Dakota Experiences a. Shower of
Snakes Near Pierre.
ST. PAUL, July 7.-[Special. IA Pioneer
Press Pierre, S. D. special says a peculiar
phenomenon occurred in that ciry last
evening and one which seems almost mirac-
ulous. About $50 p. m. clouds began to
gather and in ten minutes rain commenced
to pour, accompanied by strong wind.
Just about the time the ram ceased small
snakes from twelve to sixteen inches long
fell to the grouiid in various places.
These were coiled or snarled up
in peculiar fashion and when they
struck ground seemed to be somewhat
stunned. Several parties killed some of
the snakes and exhibited them. At first
the fact that the snakes rained down was
laughed at, but subsequently the evidence
became so convincing that it is now uni
sersally known to be true. The snakes have
peculiar blueish color and seem to have
peculiar light about their heads. looking
like halo when in the dark. The super
stitious people seem to think the falling of
the snakes, an evil omen and predict that
something terrible is going to happen to the
people.
