Presidential Profanity.

President Harrison, being deacon in
the Presbyterian church, is supposed to
not be in the habit Of swearing. No
body has been known to hear him.
Many of the presidents have, however,
been able to swear, and did so. Jackson
stands pre-eminent for his mouth filing
oaths. His genius for inventing start
ling expletives was extraordinary. With
age, however, his habit Of cussing grew
less pronounced, and he generally con-
tented himself with saying, "By the
Eternal" unless the occasion required
something stronger. Andy johnson cuss-
ed frightfully. Grant, although smok-
er and drinl1er, seldom uttered an oath,
though he was military man. He was
the only soldier president who never
swore. The best known swearer Of the
present day is Gen. Sherman, although
Sheridan when he lived was o rival for
the honor, but with little Phil dead he
reigns the prince of oath inventors -

AT THE PAVILION.
THE CANDIDACY OF JOHN SHIR-
LEY WARD ENDORSED.
DR., Pendleton Presides at an Enthusiastic
Gathering-Major Hilton's Eloquent
Plea for Sunday Closing and Reform.

Quite large audience filed the pa
vlion yesterday afternoon to endorse
the. candidacy OF John Shirley Ward as
mayor, and to ratify the sentiment ex-
pressed by the Sunday saloon closing
ordinance. DIR. Pendleton was the chair
man, and in fitting terms introduced as
the speaker OF the occasion, Major Hill
ton, who has been lecturing before the
Y. M. G. A.
The major is an eloquent man, and
was full of personal interest in his
subject. He began by emphasizing the
duty of voters to make their action
a conscientious matter; that the pres
ent election was probably the most i'm
portant one ever held in this city, as it
would affect the tendency upwards or
downwards of the reputation OF the city
and the people. He bore particularly on
the Sunday closing ordinance, and de-
nounced the childish action of Mayor
Hazard in saying he would not sign it.,
and then in the hope of pulling through,
turning about and signing it. He
made the point that it was absolutely
necessary to elect man as mayor, who
is in thorough sympathy with it, and
such a man, he said, was John
Shirley Ward. The charge that Mr..
Ward had been confederate
soldier was then taken up. A man in
the audience said, ''That's all Pve got
against him." Major Hilton answered
in burst of eloeuence which moved the
whole audience it was full of fraternity,
patriotism and good will to all men. He
said Twenty-Five years ago was shoot
ing at men, and they were shooting at
me, but those OF us who are left from both
sides are now working shoulder to
shoulder for good government and the
glory of the whole United States"
"The question now is" continued the
speaker, 'dO you wish to elect the Dem.
ocratic nominee, whose character is
known to you, and whose tendencies
it is needless to mention, or do you wish
for mayor a man like Mr.. Ward, who
represents the best tendences?"
He then asked all who favored Mr..
Wards candidacy to stand, and the
whole audience rose to its feet.
Mr.. Ward was then called for, and ne
made very brief address. He stated
that he was not present as candidate
politically, but had consented to take
the nomination in the interest of needed
moral and economical reform. The FIX
press had spoken OF: him as decrepit
old man, but for twenty years he had
not missed eating three square meals a
day, and no doctor was supported by
practicing on him. He felt that he had
the qualification to fill the Office, and il
elected would promise to use his most
sincere efforts to advance the interests
of the city.

How to Bind Magazines.

One good way to bind file Of maya
zines cheaply is to punch three holes
near the back Of each magazine, and
pass strong cord through the holes, tie
ing tightly with the regular binders
knot. The edges may be trimmed under
a printers paper cutter, OF even with a
sharp knife. Of course, bookbinder
can do better job. Some people, by
the way, do not know that bookbinder
will bind volume of magazines strong
ly and neatly in library sheep for
twenty-five cents. The owner can letter
the volume with pen, and it is quite as
serviceable as if it were more expensive
ly bound.-Writer.

The colonel fetched out his trusty
weapon, and they started out to stalk
their unsuspecting prey. Once within
gunshot he poured In hot shot. but the
thing never moved. Another barrel,

THE FINAL SHOT.
The Mayors Disgraceful Record ON
Sunday Closing.


To the Voters of Los Angeles:
We call your attention to the follow
ing facts in the history of Los Angeles
for the last thirteen days:
Nov. 1S.-The people voted by ma
jority of 5S3 to close saloons on Sunday.
Nov 19.-An ordinance to carry this
decision of the people into effect was
passed.
Nov. 24.-Mayor Hazard, in message
to the council, said: Reduce the
liquor dealers license or else neither the
people nor you shall close saloons on
Sunday"
Nov. 25.-The city OF Los Angeles is
afire with anger and indignation at this
defiance OF the peoples will by the
mayor and his trucking to a single
class-the liquor dealers. Both the
mayor and the liquor dealers become
alarmed.
Nov. 2S.-The liquor dealers tell the
mayor not to require the reduction in
the fee for license, and that he may ap-
prove the Sunday-closing ordinance
without such reduction.
Nov. 29.-The mayor accordingly signs
the ordinance.
Nov. 30.-The people read the mayors s
own statement that these are the plain
facts, and thoughtful citizens drop their
heads in very shame and say, Mayor
Hazard has become an unfit man for
that high office. But Mr.. Ling never
was fit for it. We will vote for John
Shirley Ward for mayor, citizen with
out reproach, man OF judgment and
fully determined, as he assures us, to
have an economical city government.

Theme Is Found in Tea.

Careful investigations show that theme
is deadly poison when administered to
animals. Seven and half grains will
kill cat in few moments. Twelve
grains have been known to produce
serious results in human beings; twenty
grains would be almost or quite fatal.
1t is not so fatal in small doses as arsenic
or strychnine, and most people are
habituated to its use in much the same
way that the opium eater takes his dead

earthly noise was again heard, and with

captain peered through the semi-dark-

Samoan girl arrayed in tho restrictive
dress Of her country. She was lying in
the hold, sleeping soundly and snoring
loudly. With foreboding that he had
an elephant on his hands, the captain
reused the dusky sleeper. She did not
