two older sons made the most OF their
advantages, and in the course of time
entered honorable professions and were
great sources of pride to their old father.
The youngest was a handsome, easily
Influenced boy, and on his final return
from college he had developed into what
is called ''dude," with many airs and
little common sense. He regarded the
farm and everything about it with a
high disdain, yet he seemed to have no
inclination to seek employment Of any
sort away from home.
His father was bitterly disappointed
in him, but said little to the foolish
young fellow, who one day overheard a
conversation between his father and an
old friend from the city, which fortu-
nately had a salutary, effect on him.
well, Mr.. Adams" said the old
friend, "you have three sons, I know;
what are they all doing"
"John, replied Mr.. Adams with pride,
"he's going to be a minister, and fust
rate one. too, if do say it; and Fred, he
calc'lates to be a lawyer, and guess there
won't be many smarter in this part of
the countryl"
"And how about James? inquired the
friend.
"Well, as to James," responded the
farmer dryly, "he's my son to be sure;
but if James don't meet with no serious
drawbacks l think likely he'll make a
fust class idiot some dayr'-Youth's

A CHARMING DEBUTANTE
MISS AUSTERMELL'S INTRODUC-
TORY SONG RECITAL,
She Is Greeted BY an Appreciative Audi
ence-Assisted By Popular Local Tai
ent-The Programme.

Miss Alice ID. Austermell, charming
and talented young artistic, made her
initial appearance before Los Angeles
audience at tTurnverein hall last evening,
and met with decidedly flattering re-
ception. Though not perhaps as large
as had been anticipated, the attendance
was very fair, the musical public being
we'll represented.
The fair debutante was assisted in
this, her Introductory recital, by Mrs.
Ogilvie, Misses Kate Ryder and Maud
Aver, and0M Mr.. w. Piutti, OF the Piano
Symphony club; Mr.. j. P. Dupuy, the
popular local tenor, and Mr.. Walsh,
who at a moments notice took the place
OF Mr.. }. b. limerick, the latter gentle
man being detained at Riverside by the
washouts. The accompanies were Miss
Olive Percival, the pianiste, and Pro-
fessor A. J. Stamm, violin.
Miss Austermells voice, which is re-
markably sweet and sympathetic, was
heard to great advantage in Arditi's diff
ficult solo, Bolero, in Reinecke's Spring
Flowers, and in Governs pathetic ballad,
Left Untold. She was also equal to the
occasion in trio from Verdi's Attila, in
which Messrs. Dupuy and Walsh sup
ported her very acceptably.
The programme, which was very enjoy
ably rendered throughout, was as fol-
lows: Ht}

A. Horn. Allegro con brio; marcia funebre;

Where Cigars Are Good.

One good cigar smoked after each
meal is what may be called moderate
use, and can rarely infict any damage
to the system. The exceptions occur in
those persons of peculiar organization,
impressionable and easily disturbed by
stimulants, sedatives or narcotics. There
are others, as we know, in whom cup
of tea or coffee or a saucer of strawber-
ries causes arrangement of some one or
more organs of the body, and others
with even more remarkable peculiarities,
SO that it is not strange that there should
be individuals to whom tobacco is more
or less poisonous. Such instances, how
ever, are rare and do not conflict with
the foregoing statement.
I can see, therefore, no very great rea-
son why, if person desires or thinks he
desires mental or physical consolation or
benefit, he should not indulge himself in
the moderate use of cigars in the man
ner that have mentioned.
But should he pass The proper limits
he makes himself liable to the occur
renee of one or more serious physical dis
orders, any one of which will certainly
entail great suffering upon him. Thus
neuralgia may harass him by day and
by night, and especially when he has ex-
posed himself to inclement weather, or
been subject to mental anxiety or other
emotional disturbances. The nerves of
the face are particularly prone to be
affected in such cases, and the form may
consist of that most atrocious of all
neuralgia pains, tic douleureux, in which
the pains come spasmodically and are
accompanied with twitching of the mus
cles.-Dr. William A. Hammond in New
York Herald.

Mems Night Shirts.

There is no speciality in the range Of
mems furnishings in which greater
strides have been made than in the man
ufacture of night shirts. In the con-
temptation of the crude home made arti-
cles of few years ago, cut at haphazard
out Of coarse material, it is in the nature
of revelation of careful and good taste
to contemplate the array Of slumber
gowns that are now offered to the pur-
chaser from which to make a selection
From the most frugal to the most syb-
aritic taste these essential garments of
somnolence may be had promptly for

More Ram than In any September FOL

Observer Ravencraft's summary OF tn

With the exception of the oath, wher
fifty two hundredths of an inch OF rair
fell the greatest precipitation was on
Melbourne's day, the LIST, when forty,
three hundredths of an inch fell. The
total precipitation for the month was
2.09 inches. an excess of l.2l inches over
the average September rainfall and greater
than for any month of September since
the signal office was established here in
1871.
The mean temperature for the month
was 5S.9 the highest temperature was
So degrees on the 10th; the lowest was
32' on the 24th. The prevailing direc-

Items From the West.

David Miller, who divides his time be.
tween the fourishing towns of Rock
Springs and Green River Is in the city.
Mr.. Miller says that last month more coal
was produced from the mines Of Rock
Springs than during any other month
since the camp has been in existence,
The last pay roll. which was only for two
weeks work in the Union Pacific mines,
amounted to over SAT, 600. This does
not include a number of private mines
At the present rate of production the total
pay to Rock Springs miners will average
$3.50, 900 a month. This will probably
be increased, for No. s, one OF the best
mines, is not working but will start up
soon. Mr.. Miller saws he don't know
what becomes of SO much money unless
the people bury it. Green River is al
ways lively, but more so now as court is
in session there.

Chngwater ADJUDICATION .

j. A. Johnston, the water commits
%sioner, was busy yesterday preparing for
the adjudication of Chugwater water
claims. HIS table was covered with piles
of claimants papers and the priority
rights were being looked up. 1t is a
tedious job. The commissioner notifies
each claimant by registered mail that on a
certain day he will be at an appointed
place to take testimony regarding the
water rights. The testimony consists OF
an affidavit by each ditch owner stating
when his ditch was commenced, how
much land has been irrigated, etc. II
there are more claimants for water rights
than can be allowed, that is, if the stream
from which water is to be taken cannot
supply enough for all, then the rights are
granted according to priority. Next Mon
day Mr.. Johnston goes to Laramie, where
about $50 claims for bitches appropriatiug
water from Laramie river are to be adju-
dictated.
