OUT OF THE RACE.
General Vandever Telegraphs That He
Will Not Run.


1t appears that General Vandever has
changed his mind with regard to the
matter of denomination for congress. A
short time ago letter from him was
printed in San Diego paper, announc-
ing that although he was not going to
make very much of fight for the nom-
ination, he was willing to accept it if
offered. The effect of this statement on
the local Republican camp was to call
out good deal of unfavorable comment
on the work done by General Vandever
during his service as representative.
Yesterday B. Fehneman, of the Orc
Fino Club, received the following tele-
gram from General Vandever:
WASHINGTON, ID. c..
B. Fehneman, Orc Fino Club, Los an
geles:
am not candidate for denomination
to congress, and desire my friends to
withdraw my name. w. VANDEvER.
Comment among Republicans on the
matter yesterday was generally to the
effect that General Vandever's action
was wise, as he would not have been
nominated in any event. 1t was held
that he had been originally misinformed
as to the state of feeling in the party,
and that now his erroneous ideas had
been corrected.

Another beneficial result of this medicine,

is the elimination from the blood of impurities

are most important outlets for the escape OF

The Oceans Undertow.

The dreaded and fatal ''undcrtow" is
very cleverly and simply described by
Dutiield Osborne. As each wave rolls in
and breaks upon the beach. its volume
of water flows back again. and As the sue.
ceeding wave breaks over it it naturally
forms an undercurrent flowing outward
Of strength prOportionate to the body Of
water it contains, and also proportionate
IN great measure to the depth of the
ditch. Where this latter is considerable
it is obvious that the water of receding
waves will flow into it with similar ef-
tect to that of water going over fall,
and that person standing near is likely
TO be drawn over with it, and thus, if the
ditch is deep enough, carried out of his
depth.

The San Francisco Chronicle saws:
'''Dr. BrOwn-Sequard will probably
find that it is very difficult to revive a
collapsed sensation. His elixir of life
made a great stir when he first sprang
it on the public, but experiments
showed that it would not do what was
claimed for it. The guinea pigs suf.
fered to no purpose. and it is extreme
ly doubtful whether any physicians
will be found ready to test his later ex-
periments. In fact the elixir is about
as dead as the blue-glass craze which
swept the country several years ago"

1900, 200 miles of land lines existing,

belonging to governments are 1918
miles long. and are valued at $50, 000,-

According to the Boston Cultivator,
France seems to be one of the most
prosperous nations of the earth. Only
Is per cent. of the real estate is under
mortgage. while in Germany it is esti-
mated that 80 per cent. of the land is
mortgaged at about half its total valu-
alton. There is less emigration from
France than from any other country.
Almost every Frenchman seems welded
to his native land, believes in it, works
Tor 1t and protects it with persistent
industry and frugal economy.

Lunatics in China.

In China acts of homicide or murder
committed by lunatics are rare. In that
country the iron hand of Justice works
incNorably, and the plea of insanity is
not admitted rs mitigation of punish

bOrer was sentenced to death i'll the usual
manner appointed for the crime of par.
ricide, while the relatives. who had
neglected to inform the district
authorities that the man was insane.
were each sentenced to receive 100 blows
with IA stick. According to Western
ideas this punishment of . lunatic is
cruel, but there can he no doubt that the
severity adds largely to the protection of
the public, as Is evidenced by the rarity
of crime by lunatics in China. There are
few lunatics 50 mad rs to BE- altogether
deficient of self-control, and the knowl-
edge possessed by all Chinese that,
whether mad Or sane. they will be pun
Ished for any crimes they may commit,
acts upon all alike Us a deterrent. In
England we have gone to the other ex-
trcme, and the slightest evidence showing
that man or woman's mind is unhinged
upon certain points is considered sutfic-
lent to shield them from the c0nse-
quences of any crime they may commit,
even when that crime is perpetrated with
An amount of cunning and forethought
sufficient to show, beyond doubt, that
the person committing it was perfectly
aware of wrong doing. and was sane
enough to adopt every precaution against
