Large Numbers-Notes.

President r. R. Gable, of the Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific railway with his
family, arrived in Southern California
in his special car on Saturday, stopping
at the Raymond. Yesterday he came to
Los Angeles, where he was chaperoned
by his roads able and amiable local
agent, Mr.. F. w. Thompson. In the
afternoon he called on General Manager
K. H. Wade, of the Southern California
road, and had.quite a conference with
him.
Mr.. Gable is an aggressive looking
man, who appears to be possessed of all
the points of the typical railroader. He
is OF course delighted with Southern
California, though he wants to see lit
tie more OF its sunshine than he has yet
experienced.
Mr.. Gable is the man who has been
waging war with brother Jay Gould over
the Omaha railroad bridge, of late, and
who so far has failed to knock out the
little wizard and has carried the dispute
to the supreme court.
He is here for pleasure and rest, and
proposes to look for both at the various

TUESDAY. APRIL %.

Very little of general interest was done in
either branch of the Legislature. Gov. Fifer
transmitted to both houses a message call
ing the attention of the legislature to the
act OF congress providing for the cOnstruc-
ton of the Illinois & Mississippi canal,
and recommending the adoption of a
joint resolution, giving the assent Of
both the state and the United States
to carry on the necessary condemna-
tion proceedings and giving the govern ent
jurisdiction over the necessary lands. The
resolution recommended by the govern or
was adopted by both houses by a vote
of Il to II. The house suspended the
rules and read first time senate
bill repeating the Merritt conspiracy
act. House committee on judiciary made an
adverse report on Parsons bill, increasing
the penalty for carrying concealed weapons
to imprisonment in the penitentiary for not
less than one year nor more than five years.
On motion of Mr.. Parsons the house refused
to concur in the report of the committee and
the bill was placed on the calender. The re-
port of the special joint committee to in
vestigate the charges against the Chi
cago Live Stock exchange was read, and
the bill recommended by the committee
was advanced to second reading. In the
senate consideration of the matter was
postponed, the farmer members making
every effort to have the bill passed. The
senate killed Secrests bill authorizing coun-
ty boards to condemn and remove dams
to facilitate drainage. House committee on
miscellaneous subjects ordered favorable
report on Brooks bill prohibiting absolute
ly the sale of cigarettes in this state. The
penalty imposed is a fine of not less than
$50 nor more than $100.

"A little smoke-consuming lamp is

cigar smoke is very disagreeable and
hurtful to him. At recent dinner
party in friends house, just after
cigars were lighted, he produced his
wonderful lamp, and set it on the table
before him. Over the flames of this
little lamp was ring of platinum,
which became red hot in very few sec
