Many of the city officials came to sudden
standstill yesterday with short, sharp turn.
1t appears that the cash in the General
Fund gave out before all the salaries were
paid, and the stranded ones have no other
recourse but to wait till the tide comes in
again or call ON their "uncle" The I'M
usual shortage just at this time is due to the
new wrinkles in the tax instalment system,
but the embarrassment will be only for a
short time.

Mrs. oysters Address to the Women's
Press Association.
AT the convention Of the Pacific Coast
Women's Press Association, held Sep
tember Dist, 22d and 23d, the President
Of the association, Mrs. Nellie Blessing
Eyster, delivered her first annual address,
from which the following extracts are taken:
In her exordium she says: Civilization
Is the tendency Of all thinking in our era,
foci for the brain as well as for the brain
workers. TIE latter. seek protection from
without; the former from within. The
greatest mosaic in the world is she news
paper; the Tgreatest monopOlist is the hui
man brain. 1t IS not protection from outer
elements that the ideas emanatlng from this
brain need, half as much as preservation
from certain elements that come from
within, elements that we call individual
opinions, and which we are prone to air
and let wander On all occasions, unless
tetheTed by the strong ribbon Of concen-
t1aied common sense"
WOMEN AS JOURNALISTS.
She quoted the remark of a member to
the effect that "the second class of Women's
interest IN journalism related to women as
neutrality-suspicious., and received more at
tenuon Than the circumstances warranted,
because the mass of so-caled newspaper
women are impersonal reporters, news.
gatherers or interyiewers, controlled, d.
Tected and supervised by men editors, with
no possible opportunity to display anv in
divduality; that the shrewd managfng
editor considers women in Journalism
merely as a part of his machinery to
secure an end" Referring to the phen-
Omenai growth OF a Western city. she
says: 1.-The incentive Of this growth was
given as much by the pens OF practical
women, who had genius for housekeeping,
a god-like love Of order and clean
illness, and the acquitted power of expressing
their thoughts and opinions in a clear
aud concise manner, as it was that
IF the men writers. Just as a church or a
home is best regulated and most prosperous
when the two elements Of seX-tne mascu-
line and feminine-ara united and equal
factors IN Its government, so the local in
ferests Of village, town and city are best de-
VelOped when the pens Of both men and
women are pliet in the interest OF art, high

THE UsUAL COURsE.

1T is our custom, in compliance with the
law, to set aside tenth OF each consigu-
ment for the purposes of appraisement
Where the consignment is OF spirits we
often retain sample; also where it is of
cigars. This is for comparison and future
reference. If the consignment be of wine,
perhaps only one case is opened, unless the
cases are broken or STAINED. Then we look
for broken and blown bottles in order that
we may not charge Import duties on the
former.
GAS to the loss by breakaga, 1t is not
large. OF a consignment of 1850 cases there
was one case of quart bottles and one of
pint bottles broken. This breakage occurs
during transportation and is very small
comparatively. SCoIetlmes cases are broken
into while in transit and a bottle or two
stolen. If we were to find many missing we
would be the very first to protest."
