NEWS AND NOTES.

Every American drummer doing
business in Victoria, B. c., is re-
quired to pay license of $50. This
only allows him to sell goods by
sample until January LIST, when
every foreign salesman must pay a
fee of 800 for the privilege.
An Indiana court gave two prize
fighters and their referee six
months IN Jail and fine of $500
each. 4 little more of that kind
of law would break up the brutal
business here and elsewhere. Per-
haps it is now hardly necessary in
San Francisco, as the sport has
pretty well played itself out by
numerous put up jobs and " fixed
fights, on which the public have
been given chance to put up their
money.
Commenting on the successful
removal of a four-pound tumor
from the breast of a young Welsh
miner, the London Lancet states
that large tumors of innocent char
acter are now seldom met with IN
England, where confidence in the
surgeons art is increasing, and
T lief is sought before very large
proportions are reached. In India
and the East, however, enormous
elephantoid tumors, even exceeding
the patient in weight, are not rare.
In Calcutta, the recent removal OF
tumor of 140 pounds was followed
by recovery.
Oregon fruit-growers find that
the yellow-jaekets eat the green
aphis scale. We have always be
lieved that in the wise economy Of
nature there must be some reason
for the existence of the yellow
Jacket, but it has heretofore been
more matter of faith than Of sight
California fruit-growers, in noting
this accession to their defences
will also remember that lively
colony of yellow, Jackets will ten(
to keep small boys and Chinamel
at distance. What terms grower
themselves can make with thei
new allies is another question.
The leper lazaretto advocated b,
the state and city Boards of Healtl
is disagreeable suggestion, but
white persons become afflicted wit
the disease, there must be plac
to keep them. The Chinese pa
tients we can deport. AS all, whethe
white or yellow, usually find thei
way to San Francisco from the il
terror, it is only fair that the stat
should provide for them. Sa
Francisco already does more tina
:, her share of accommodating p'
tients of all kinds from warrior
parts of the state.

In possessing the love Of two so dear to
him. / almost envied the love OF his
mother could only think Of one distant
grave, but it was a garden full of sweet
memories!
After dinner as wa were returning TO tho
drawing-room, we heard strains OF en-
chanting music from some hidden nook.
Lady Hortense, true 10 her artistic skill in
arranging for the pleasure of a party had
taken the lead with Myrtle by her side,
and opening door TO another part OF the
mansion carried us back 10 the scenes of
our forefathsrs.
"Ol' exclaimed Myrtle, "a Christmas
tree" Sure enough there stood Christ
mas tree In room beautifully decorated
with the time-honored mistletoe and holly,
and in the open fire place lay the ancient
yule-log!
Eyes, little one" said Lady Hortense
kindly, this is your Christmas gift You
are the fairy to light the fire and to call fer
old st. Nick. Wave this wand" she con-
tinued, handing Myrtle golden seepter
Myrtle was little bewildered for a mo-
ment, but intensely Interested At a
movement from Lady Hortense the great
log fire was soon blazing with bright
bplcuuOT, III bttulcu 10 Scuu lOTbu III tho
colors of the rainbow, and, what was
strange it did not burn away.
At signal from Lady Hortense corpu-
lent old Santa Claus stepped from the fire
place and began robbing the tree of its
dainty fruit, calling the name Of the own
er of each article and handing them TO
Myrtle to distribute. Amid joyous peals
of laughter at his witty sayings we each
received some little souvenir to keep rs a
reminder of this happy Christmas time.
At the request Of Mrs. Haynes it was de-
cided that Fred and Annie should be mar
ried while she might be present to witness
the ceremony. The day was fixed and the
arrangements made for the wedding to
take place at Blue Ridge. In the mean
time Annie and her father were to be our
guests at Ravens Park. Col. Haynes and
his mother were to remain at Blue Ridge.
A busy time followed this arrangement.
From the frequent consultations and the
numerous visits to London followed 10y
boxes and bundles of various kinds and
descriptions, one might have thought that
they were fitting out colony of young
songsters for the land of Paradise.
While to our little party the wedding
WAS the all absorbing theme, the whole OF
England was amazed over q very different

The Senate GayeI.

The vice-presidents gavcl is of itself
a standing evidence that the senate is
an orderly body and needs no school,
master for presiding officer to compel
quiet, says Washington correspondent
of the st. Paul Pioneer Press. The
gavel has no handle. 1t never did have
any. 1t is simply little piece of
white ivory like the head OF gavel,
polished and shining. 1t would not do
in the house at all, for the most that
can be done with it is TO give gentle
rapping on the desk and in the other
wing the speaker sometimes needs 10
hammer away like man with beetle.
This senate gavel, with which Vice
President Morton tells the senator's
that they are making too much noise,
has been in existence and in use as n
gavel for many years. 1t is the ident
ical one, it is said, which was in use
when Daniel Webster was in the senate,
and probably was used the dav he
made his reply to Hayne, to still the
buzz i'll the gallery when the great man
sat down. This, at any rate, was said
to he true the other day.
There is mystery about the gavel.
too. Nobody but Capt Bassctt, the
white-haired doorkeeper, knows what
becomes of it during the recess aud
when congress is not in session. The
venerable old Capt. Bassett takes it
from the vice-president's desk when
the senate adjourns and hides it some-
where, and it is lost to the world until
it Is again needed by the vice-pres-
ilent CANT Raseatt tnOys thu historv
of the gavel, as he does of everything
else about the senate chamber. for he
has been there since some time in the
SOS or 40's, when he first received his
appointment-as page. it is said
through the influence of Daniel Web
ster. 1t has been suggested that Capt.
Bassett carries the gavel in his pocket
as mascot when the senate is not in
session, though this is probably not
true.

This Is Convenient.

While riding in a railroad car, try
ing to read a newspaper by the uncer-
tain light of the lamp which was sns-
pended at tantalizing distance from
my eyes. says Taverner in the Boston
Post, n friend who sat next to me said:
"Tavener. old fellow, don't spoil
those critical optics of yours by using
that wretched apology for lamp. bnt
suit yourself with this" He whipped
little tube out of his pocket which be
fastened to my buttonhole, and before
could see what he was driving at n
bright light illuminated the newspa-
per, which had been blurred by the
devious rays from the railroad lamp
That's electricity" added my friend,
with seemingly superfuous frankness,
and he then went on to show how the
apparatus worked. 1t had storage
battery for the motive power and a
reflector to concentrate the light, and
the entire weight of the light was only
one and one-half pounds. l found the
light somewhat glaring at first, the
reflection from the newspaper dazzling
my eyes, and the shadows cast giving
sort of dark-lantern gloom to out
lying objects. But this effect soon
wore of, and by adjusting the paper
to the light it was easy for me to read
without experiencing any inconven-

A Clever Fraud.

Speaking of diamond smugglers. the
cleverest fraud ever perpetrated upon
the American revenue as invented BY
diamond merchant in New York.
For years he was known TO he Snug.
Cling precious stones, but the customs
detectives could not catch him. Every
time he returned from Europe he was
carefully searched, and il was even
proved that he did not swallow his
diamonds before going ashore. His
buyers, too were searched. but never
was anything found except n few in
fcrior stones. and these he did not con.
ceal. Traps were set to capture the
willy old culprit, but without avail. At
last detective learned that whenever
one of the suspected firm arrived in
New York upon "A certain steamer.
another OF the firm or an agent took
the same vessel upon its return trip TO
Europe. and also secured the same
state-room. 1t was further learned
that they invariably took the entire
state-room. so that they were alone
upon the voyage. This led to the dis.
cOvery of the fraud. 1t appears that
the dealer, when OH his way from
Europe. would cut small piece out Of
the flooring under the carpet of the
statc-room, and, after concealing the
diamonds To be Struggled, would put
back the flooring and replace the car.
pet. When he left the ship he left the
diamonds, too. in their place OF con.
cealment, aud, of course, the detective
never found any in hts possession. A
T. 4 Il n
about to depart for Europe, the other
member of the firm or agent, having
secured the slate-room for the return
trip. would 90 on board accompanied
by his confederate. The latter would
then remove the diamonds and &C
ashore perfectly safe. There were nc
custom officers on active duty when
vessels were departing
