Gambling Women,

The gambling carried on in private
houses in London has been quite as perni-
cious in its effects as that of the soidisant
clubs devoted to baccarat When the
game of poker was introduced into that
country about ten yen years ago it took
immediate hold of certain set of ladies
in London, who up to this period had been
content to play whist every afternoon
for stakes which, although not particularly
low, were well within their means. Poker,
however, changed all this. The stakes
were gradually increased. "Flats," who
were not well acquainted with the game,
were eagerly sought for and invited to
peoples houses at a moments notice.
Needless to say that very large sums
changed hands. Ladies whose faces are
well known on the heath at Newmarket,
on the lawn at Goodwood and in the royal
inclosure at Ascot, opened wide their doors
to let in Tom, Dick and Harry, and often
the wives of Tom, Dick and Harry, pro-
vided they would play poker. and were
not too well versed in the art of bluffing
and seeing bluffs. When once the novice
had acquired experience and general
knowledge of the game, the invitations
became less frequent, aud he or she, in
poker parlance, "really sat too tight" and
had to be replaced by more innocent
victim. Through several seasons the
poker fever ragged On bright summer
afternoons the blinds would be drawn,
lamps lit and the game, which began at
about + o'clock, would only cease just in
time to enable its votaries to dress for
dinner. Immediately after dinner the
same set would meet again, the winners
eager to win more, the losers desperate to
"get home'

The Gentleman Born.

We are all made of the same clay. The
incest analysis can detect no difference be-
tween the "blue blood that runs in the
veins of the descendant of line of kings
and the vital fluid" Of the pauper; but
there is nevertheless an Unborn aristocracy
of mind and soul which all men instinct
lively recognize, and which compels respect
from the haughtiest. Patricians by the
accident Of birth are often base, selfish and
stupid; but Gods gentleman, though reared
in poverty and the heirs of toll, are sure to
manifest their innate nobility in spite of
adverse circumstances.
The gentleman born has the right sort
of pride, 100. He will 60 out of his way to
show stranger the nearest road to any
point he may desire to reach, share his last
crust with starving brother. peril his life
to protect a woman from insult, and is ever
prompt to assist weakness and avenge
wrong Yet, if you offer him compensa-
tion for obeying the impulses Of his
knightly nature his cheekfill redden with
Indignation at the thought of being mis-
taken for mercenary, willing to make a
trade of doing good. His labor he will
sell, but not the services which his noble
heart teaches him are due to all who are
in necessity, tribulation or danger. Such
man, though his spelling book expert
ences may be too limited to enable him to
spell the word "pedigree;;" and he may
have been raised in dog shanty on salt
pork and corn dodgers, is nevertheless
royal and the moral peer of any of his
species.-New York Ledger.

Eucalyptus Trees.

The planting of eucalyptus trees for the
purpose of draining the soil in malarial
districts is one which has met with some
success. The Trefontane Convent at Rome
had become positively uninhabitable. ow-
ing to the malaria which attacked-in
many instances with fatal results-its in
mates. Senator Torrelli presented bill
proposing that the estate annexed to the
convent should be planted with eucalyptus
as an experiment against malaria. The
bill was passed and the Trappist monks
planted thousands of eucalyptus plants of
all species on the estate. But still the
malaria ragged and several monks suffered
severely. 1t was, however, remarked
that it was only the monks who had their
cells looking on the central cloister who
fell victims to malaria. This suggested
the idea of planting four eucalyptus trees
at the four corners of the cloister. The
plants, sheltered from the winds, soon
grew to a great hight. The immediate
result was the complete draining of the
soil in the cloister, and the disappearance
of malarial fever from the convent.

AMAZING IGNORANCE.

The Bingham ordinance, of San Fran
cisco, requiring Chinese to reside within
certain limits in that city, was recently
declared invalid by the United States Cir
cult Court, on treaty and constitutional
grounds. No one with pinch of brains
ever entertained any doubt about what the
decision of the Court would be- If it had
decided the ordinance valid, it would have
written itself down judicial ass.
Und,r our treaty with China, her sub
jeets p st be accorded in this country the
same rotection and privileges enjoyed by
the citizens or subjects of the most favored
(by treaty. nations. The Bingham ordi-
nance, therefore, forbidding Chinese to
come into San Francisco, or do business in
tina, city except within stated bounds, was
in violation Of treaty obligations, besides be-
ing open to several constitutional objec-
tions.
Supervisor Bingham has now introduced
into the san Francisco Board a second or
dinance, differing from the first in this
only, that il recites that the Constitution
authorizes the passage Of laws to compel
Chinese, Ineligible to become citizens, to
reside within definite limits; that China,
one of tie parties to the Burlingame
treaty, confines aad restrains the residence
of Americans in China, to certain pre-
scribed limits in the towns and cities Of
China; that the Legislature Of California,

BEET SUGAR.
Captain John Boyle Talks to New
York Reporter.

York Reporter.
New York Star, September eth.
ain few years there will be very little
California wheat in the market" said Cap
tain John Boyle Of Santa Cruz county,
California, yesterday at the Astor House.
'How is that?" | asked. "The export
trade in wheat from that State in past
years has been one of the main sources of
its wealth."
THE reason is simple enough. Our
farmers are fast turning their lands into
beet plantations, the beets being used for
the manufacture of sugar. There is a
beet-sugar factory at Watsonville in my
county, which last year bought 10000 tons
of beets from our farmers, at s. % ton,
out of which 1000 tons of sugar were pro-
duced. About ten tons of beets can be
grown to the acre. At this rate the
farmer receives $50 80 per acre for his
product, which IS much better than wheat
growing, so that in the southern part of
the State there will be very little wheat
grown in few years. In San Bernardino
county, 1000 acres have been planted in
bsets this year, another large plantation
has been laid ont in Fresno county, and
the other southern counties are following
suit.
''The movement in favor of beet grow
ing as being more profitable than wheat is
not confined to our State Kansas Ne
breska, Texas and Colorado farmers are
about to try the experiment of beet grow
ing, but according to Professor ii. w.
Wiley of the Geological Survey, tile soil

can be grown anywhere, but their value
depends on the amount OF saccharine mat
ter they contain. Beets containing 20
per cent. are worth S. per ton, while fhose
containing Is per cent are only worth 49,

ment of the beet-sugar industry ID the
United States win have on the market ?"

THE Democrats In the House of Repre-
sentatives continue to obstruct public busi-
ness by breaking quorum by leaving the
chamber at the close of a call of the
House 1t may be good politics in party
sense, but it is bad government, and it is
likewise revolutionary. The defeat OF leg
islation is not often party triumph. The
people do not forget, nor do they forgive
those who block the wheels of Congress
and prevent the passage of bills essential
to the well-being of the nation. If the
measures proposed by the Repaeliesas and
thus defeated are bad bills, the correct poll
icy for the Democrats is to point out their
errors, vote against them and throw the
responsibility of their passage upon the
dominant party.

THE State campaign has now fairly
opened, the Democrats hav ing inaugurated
1t, so far as they are concerned, on
Saturday night. Now that the excite
ment and busy period of the State
Fair is over it would be well for the
Republicans of Sacramento to prepare, in
the way of organization, for the fall cam
paign, and do their full share for the sue
cess of the ticket. Fortunately it will be
a short campaign, without any wearying
features, and it should, therefore, be all
the more active. Sacramento is Repub-
lican county, but the party cannot afford
to rest upon past laurels. 1t must go into
the local field actively and maintain and
advance the standing of the county as
Republican one. 1t is not too early to be-
gin the work of rallying the party forces
and looking about to ascertain what the
Democracy is doing to strengthen its foot
hold in this county.

AT this date out of 10000 voters who

four weeks of which remain, and as a re-
suit fully 1000 are pretty sure to be shut
out and deprived of their votes in Novem-
Der. If, however, citizens will at once
do their duty and register, the likelihood is
that no one will be omitted because of

A holera Antidote.

4 About year ago the fact came out that
the natives of India were in the habit of
treating cholera in its first stages with mi
mute doses Of cobra poison, and that the
treatment was very often successful. Ac-
scording TO Surgeon-General Hamilton,
after some difficulty and the lapse of time,
a considerable quantity of the poison was
secured and is now being examined. The
experiments are not completed; but it has
been found that cobra poison in very
minute quantity is a germicide of exceed
ingly high power, and that it is fatal to
the development of cholera germs.
