Paid OF in His Own Coin.

A remarkable case of diamond cut dia-
mond" occurred in Boston recently, not
far from the Providence Railroad Station
A druggist had fitted up neat corner store
and had established at once fine trade.
One day another druggist entered his store
and said: 81 want to buy you out. How
much will you take?" | do not want to
SELL" was the reply. II expected that an
swer," said the encroachng person, land [
am prepared for it. Now, if you don't sell
out to me will open drugstore in oppo-
sition on the opposite corner. How much
will you take?" The druggist, offended at
this species of browbeating, said he would
sleep on 1t and report the next morning
At the appointed hour the aspirant was in
the store and large price was named.
The bargain was bound. The druggist
who had been thus ousted from corner
which he had fitted up with view to years
of peace ana profit sought the owners of
the opposite corner which had been held
out to him as threat, and secured from
them long lease, worked night and day
and now has a drugstore in which any
community might take satisfaction and re-
pose confidence. What is more, he is doing
a better business than he did in his former
locality.-Boston Saturday Evening Re-
view.

EVIDENTLY FOOTBALLS.

Jacobson's Murderers Supposed to Be
Robbers.
Detective Bohen, who has charge of the
mysterious jacobson shooting case. was
more positive yesterday than on previous
days that the crime was the work of foot
pads who attempted to rob the dead man.
The detective says he has run down sew
eral theories and finds that there is nothing
to support any except that of footpads.
In following out plan that NAV lead to
success in the capture of the murders. the
Rogues' Gallery has been carefully scrntin-
lied, and the faces of characters whom the
detectives think would commit the crime
and who are now under police surveillance
in this city were noted. The susnpcied
men in the City Prison tanks" are of this
class, and more OF them will soon be under
lock and key. They are mostly notorions
ex-c0nvicts whose term of sentence has exe
pired and whose history during the last tan
years or so would throw suspicion on them
now. A
The street robbery in Oakland about a
month ago was singulary like this killing
of jacobson. The robbers ordered a man
to throw up his hands. They were masked
and one was tail and the other short In,
stead of surrendering, their victim showed
night and was shot. Again, exactly a simi-
lar circumstance took place in the NarLat
street cut. The robbers were apnaTantIv
the same men. and great effort will be
made 10 catch them ~

THE WHITE COLLAPSE.
After giving some admirable reasons W

After giving some admirable reasons why
he should not abandon his position on the
Senatorial question Mr.. White abandoned
it. The force Of his reasoning in favor OF
the position he had assumed contrasts with
the feebleness of his excuse for leaving 1t.
Mr.. White says he proposes to make the
canvass for Senator notwithstanding his
surrender to the clique that want the Sena-
torship for themselves. Perhaps Mr.. White
win inform the public how he proposes to
continue the fight. There seems no other
way than for him to urge upon Democratic
voters the importance of electing Demo-
cratic Legislature. But the Democratic
voters will ask him what assurance he
has that Thomas Clunie, James Budd, w.
r. Hearst, or some other Examiner tieds-
ling, will not be the Democratic caucus
nominee in the event of the election of a
Democratic Legislature? Mr.. White will
be forced to answer that he has no assur-
ance that he will not be passed by and an
Examiner aspirant nominated. In word,
Mr.. White now proposes to burn his fingers
pulling Clunie chestnuts out of the fire.

TAKING A VACATION.
The State Officials and Many subordi-
mites Are al San .Insn.

The State Officials and Many subordi-
mates Are at San Jose.
The Capitol building is almost deserted by
the State officers, and even clerks; and a
stranger who might happen to stroll into
the several departments at the present
time would imagine that the affairs of the
State are conducted at times in remark
ably easy-gOing manner The Democratic
Convention at San Jose has drawn the
greater portion of the employees away, but
then little diversions like this occur only
once in four years, and besides the absence
of officials from work at this time is of vital
importance to themselves, as their bread
and butter for four years hence may depend
upon the result Of the political wrangle IN
the Garden City.
Governor Waterman is not at his office,
but his absence is accounted for by sick
ness. He is reported to be seriously i'll at
his residence in this city.
Secretary of State Hendricks is at San
Jose seeking a denomination, and Tom
Egan, the efficient clerk and politician in
Mr.. Hendricks office, is also there.
Clerk McGrath is the sole occupant of the
Controllers office, out of force of eight
men. John p. Dunn, Felix Dunn and clerks
Oullahan, OConnor, Clark, OReilly and
German are all at san Jose working in
dustriously TO retain their chlCt IN office for
a third term.
Treasurer Herold took all the force in his

ONE FLANK IN THE PLATFORM.

The tenth Democratic resolution calls at
tention TO the hypocrisy of the late Repub-
lican State Convention in attempting to
place upon the Democratic majority in the
Legislature the entire responsibility for the
appropriations made during the last session.
1t IS not often that majority party con-
dennis itself so pointedly as this tenth reso-
luton condemns the last Democratic Legis-
laiure. Its only excuse for its sins is that
the minority helped to commit them. And
yet the Democratic party is under the same
control as two years ago. Mr.. Buckley,
who permitted these resolutions to pass
and nominated Mayor Pond to stand upon
them, directed the votes of the last Legisla-
ture. Any member might introduce bill,
but Mr.. Buckley had 10 be seen before it
could be passed. There is some hope of
party that is ashamed of itself. a suscepti-
bility to shame implies lingering sense of
self-respect. But an acknowledgment on
the part of a party that it is ashamed OF
itself hardly justifies the public in keeping
it in position to repeat the act of which it
processes to be ashamed.

Some poultry men have more or less
trouble with ailing chickens. l would
not, says writer in Farm and Home,
advocate doctoring them, preferring the
hatchet N most cases, but occasionally
q case is met that can be cured. The
symptom of bird with water crop is a
poor appetite, but it Graves and drinks
water until it's crop is distended and be-
comes sour. TO treat take bowl of
warm water, in which is dissolved q
quarter of teaspoon of baking soda
and take the fowls head in the left hand
and with the body under the arm, hold
ing the head downward, with the neck
extended. Hold the beak open with the
right hand and manipulate the contents
of the crop down and out of the mouth.
Then give good dose of soda water; a
spoonful is sufficient. Manipulate as
before, rinsing out the crop well and be-
ing careful not to irrithte the crop so as
to cause inhamm alton. Coop the chick
by itself, feed sparingly few days with
bread and scraps from the table, with a
good sprinkling of charcoal. Put five
drops of nitric acid in the drinking
water. This will generally cure it.

Different Methods of Following the In

Different Methods of Following the In
junction "Love One Another"
Do men ever fall in love with each other2
Women do. Not long ago young woman
in New Jersey was married to youthful
laborer on her fathers farm. Sometime
afterward it was discovered that the hus-
band was female; the young wife refused.
however, though earnestly entreated by her
friends, to give up her chosen consort The
strangest part of the discovery was the fact
that the bride knew her husband was O
woman before she was led to the altar.
If men do not exhibit this strange infatu-
alton for one Of their own sex, they at least
oftentimes give evidence of the fact that
they love one another. There are many in
stances on record where one man has given
his life for another. There are many more
Instances where men have given life to
another.
1t is proud possesson-the knowledge
that one has saved q precious human life.
Meriden, Conn, is the home of such a
happy man. John H. Preston, of that city,
July 1lth, 1890, writes: "Five years ago
was taken very sick, had several of the
best doctors, and one and all called it a
complication of diseases I was sick four
years, taking prescriptions prescribed by
these same doctors, and L truthfully state
never expected to get any better. At this
time, Icommenced to have the most terrible
pains in my back. One day an old friend of
mine, Mr.. R I. Cook of the firm of Curtis
& Cook, advised me Co try Warmers Safe
Cure, as he had been troubled the same way
and it had effected cure for him. bought
six bottles, took the medicine as directed
and am to-day well man. 1 am sure no
one ever had worse case of kidney and
liver trouble than 1 had. Before this was
always against proprietary medicines but
not now, oh, no."
Friendship expresses itself il very pc
culiar ways sometimes; but the true friend
is the friend in need.
1T is best always to choose tall man for
State Treasurer, so that he may not be
found short when he goes out of Office

and are made to slip out. Two corre-
spending holes in the lower end of the
tongue receive these rounds when put
in place. Pins of wire with bent heads
are put through the movable rounds
and one of the side pieces, also though
the second round and tongue, to hold
all in place. The tongue can be taken
out when the ladder is required for COM
mon use.
No. . is made on the same principle,
but is shorter. In this the lowest round
Is five feet long and the tongue is re-
versed. 1t rests on the under side OF
the topmost round, the second round
passing through the second hole. The
tongue is then drawn back until it
cramps between the rounds, and it is
fastened there by hooking the wires to
staples driven into the side pieces at
the proper distance down. The wires
then act as braces. When standing,
the ladder forms tripod. A piece OF
wood usually has to be fastened to the
side of the tongue where it touches the
top round, to give sufficient spread. II
these ladders do not stand too slanting,
twig the size of ones finger project
ing from limb is sufficient to hold
them in place. The short ladder will
not stand we'll if over eight feet long.
1t is used to pick fruit from the lower
branches, and the tongue can be ex.
tended or folded, as most convenient.
1t is a good step-ladder for any purpose.
With both one-and-one-half-stor
house can be painted without marring
the fresh paint or erecting a scaffold.
To paint the gable ends the tongue OF
the long ladder can rest on the shingles
at the edge of the roof and it will
stand square, but an ordinary ladder
will not. The painting can proceed
down until the siding can be reached
by standing on the short ladder as a
tripod Farm and Home.
