Too Much for Ned.

Governor Nichols, of Louisiana,
as most people know, Las lost an arm
and leg, but so deftly have the arti-
ficia members been fitted to the
stumps that few people are in the Sc
cret of bis loss. His colored body
servant was left behind on the ecca-
sion of his last visit in Vicksburg. and
they put at his disposal during his
stay there a likely young lad, who
was told to try and take the old body
servants place. That night when
Governor Nichols was ready TO re-
tire, he stretched out one of his legs
10 Ned, the servant, and said "Ned.
unscrew that leg.n Ned's eyes began
10 open with horror, but he oheyed
and took the leg off. Governor Mich
oils then said, calmly stretching an
arm: Med, unscrew that arm
The boy rolled up his eyes until moth
ing but the whites could he seen, but
lie obeyed and unscrewed the arm.
The Governor, who now realized his
condition of mind, determined TO
have little fun with him. so, reach
ing out his neck. he said: Med,
unscrew that head.n But the boy
never waited to see whether his head
would come off or not, and no one
ever succeeded in getting him to 60
near Governor Nichols again. He
said he was the worst "hoodoo he
ever saw Cincinnati Enquirer.

There is kind of frankness which
is purely disagreeable, and there is
another kind which may hurt the
sensibilities Tor moment, but in the
end does not lessen ones friendly re-
gard for the speaker. The Quincy
Herald relates story of the late
Congressman Taulbee, of Kentucky.
An old negro, known as Uncle Eph,
had lived in the Taulbee family for
many years and was esteemed as an
honest and faithful servant. After a
Congressional election, at which Mr..
Taulbee had been an unsuccessful
candidate, some of his opponents
twitted him with the fact that his
own servant had voted against him.
Mr.. Taulbee could not credit the
story, and at last spoke to Uncle Eph
about it.
"Is it true, Uncle Eph, that you
voted against met"
"Yes, Massa William answered
the old man. i" voted the publican
ticket"
"Well, WELL" said Mr.. Taulbee, l
like frankness, and here's dollar for
your candor."
The colored man stood scratching
his head evidently with something on
his mind.
"Well, Eph, what is itG' said Mr..
Taulbee.
IF you is buying candor, Massa
William" said Uncle Eph, "you
owes me TO dollars mo- kase | voted

A young gentleman while looking
over some papers the other day which
were dated good many years back,
came across the following puzzle
which will no doubt be found inter-
esting:
Put down the day of the month of
you birth.
Double it.
Add 7.
Multiply by so.
Add your age.
Subtract 365.
Multiply by 100.
Add number of month of your
birth.
Add 1900.
The first two figures of result will
be the day of your birth; the next
two figures your age; the last figure
the number of the month of your
BIRTH Napa Journal.

EUROPE seems to be specially restive
at any disposition on the part of the
United States tc secure the trade of
South and Central America. 1t would
seem, in the light OF the past, that all
this excitement is unnecessary. Our
manufacturers do not seem to be maxi
ing any unusual progress in that line,
and certainly the Mckinley bill will not
have any very stimulating effect if any
regard is to be paid to the opinions OF
Mr.. James G. Blaine in that respect.
He is on record to the effect that that
bill will not assist us in selling an addi-
tional barrel of -four or pork to the
countries which lie to the southwark.
Still times are so hard in Europe that it
is very easy thing to scare its business
men. There has rarely been more de-
pressed and apprehensive spirit on that
continent ttan now. This is really not
to be wondered at. The old world is on
the eve of upheavals that will make
very exciting reading and this unquiet
is simply the ominous lull before the
storm. AS yet Mr.. Blaine's scheme of
reciprocity is of very gauzy consistency
and by no means justities the European
perturbation.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-06-20
SCHOOL SALARIES.

There is perhaps nothing easier than
to utter grandiose commonplaces on ed
ucation. Every intelligent man admits
the great benefits of an efficient system
of common school instruction. All pub
lie spirited people are quite ready to
contribute their share to maintain the
public schools up to the highest stand
ard. But there is no reason why a
heavily taxed community should be
burdened to pay eXtravagant salaries to
teachers. We print elsewhere letter
from Councilman Shafer on the ques-
tion of school salaries, in which he crit
icises Councilman Bonsall and scheme
of retrenchment favored by him that we
think is recommended by common sense
and public policy. The HERALD showed
yesterday that there are great many
professional men, who have undergone an
elaborate and expensive training for
their calling, who do not begin to make
$lO0 month. On the other hand, in
the Los Angeles school system, in addi-
tion to teachers in special branches
which are not necessarily part of the
account of the salaries of the superin-
tendent and assistant superintendent of
the schools, we find eleven teachers who
receive $135 month for comparatively
light labors, and a large number of
other teachers who receive like dispro-
portionate compensation. 1t is not pro-
posed to reduce the salaries of these
teachers to the level of those of Ports
mouth, Ohio. On the contrary, the
schedules favored by Mr.. Bonsall would
leave them twice as high. We differ
with Mr.. Shafer as to the respective cost
of living in Los Angeles and in Ports
mouth, Ohio. The Buckeye city is a
bright and progressive community. with
marked esthetic element, and COM
pares favorably with the people of Los
Angeles or OF any other city in intelli-
gence and devotion to education. 1t
costs as much to live there as it does to
live in Los Angeles or any other portion
of Southern California. Meat, fruit and
vegetables are cheaper here than there
vegetables the year through, in the pro-
portion of five to one in favor of Los
Angeles. We can very we'll afford to
follow the example of Portsmouth, or Of
any other community which acts as if
the substance of the people should not
be dissipated in fancy salaries. We can
afford to be liberal, but we can scarcely
afford to countenance a programme OF
continued extravaganza. Let us set the
mark at twice the salaries paid in the
wide-awake Ohio town, and stop there,
in Gods name.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-06-20

In ALL the speculations about the cam
didstes for president we notice that
there is scarcely due prominence, out
side of Mr.. Pixley's Argonaut, given to
the part that Senator Stanford is like "
to play in the impending struggle, al
ways on the supposition that he shall
remain the stalwart physically which he
approved himself to be in the last cam
paign. The Farmers Alliance is said to
favor Mr.. Stanford for president on the
strength of his accommodating financial
projects, by which every land poor man
would Immediately become wealthy. Ii
the senior California senator can secure
the nomination of the Alliance people
it would seem that he could present a
strong claim to the Republican nomina-
ton. In the event of his selection, there
would be no need of any John Wana-
maker or Matthew Stanley Quay to stir
around and get up 100000 Republican
corruption fund. We do not venture to
assert that the $50, 100000 of California's
war governor would be thrown into the
breach, but we have modest idea that
Stanford, while he would severely frown
down corruption, as usual, would see to
it that the lubricity which is required in
political as in other machinery should
be supplied. We have thus sought to
outline briefly the source and scope of the
Californian's strength as presidential
| possibility.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-06-20

If THE statements of the wealth OF the
late Commodore Garner are true, Sir
Gordon Cumming will not be obliged
to cheat at cards hereafter to make
ends meet. The estate and its accumu-
lations are said to foot up $4,000, 900,
and the baronet's bride is entitled to a
goodly portion. This beats doubling on
five-pound stake all hollow. All
through the late trial, and in all the
newspapers, there has been an under
tone which means that there is some
thing under the surface in this episode
which has not been permitted to appear.
Hints of the real nature of the scandal,
and of the reason why Sir William Cor
don-Cumming still maintains his popu-
larity, are beginning to figure in the
London correspondence of leading
American journals. From these it
appears that the prince of Wales is a
very irritable man when he loses at
cards. On the occasion in question he
was losing and Sir William Gordon Cum
ming was winning. 1t seems that the
only actual witnesses of the alleged
cheating were two young parvenus--ob-
scure cads-who were drunk, and two
parvenu wealthy women, as to whose
condition we have no details. The
prince was mad and he was a guest in
the house of one of the nouuedu richie,
who had loaned him money, and whose
to+; op--,o,,o 10 hoo
royalty in anything. Much of the dis
gust at the prince of Wales follows from
the fact that he is what is known in
American parlance as a "squealer"
when he loses, and much of
the sympathy for Cumming is
due to the fact that he
is believed to be the victim of con-
spiracy. Ii the prince of Wales is as
big blackguard as his relative of happy
memory George Wand it looks as if
he is-Sir William is like as not the vic
tim of drunken quarrel in vulgar
household. His splendid and gallant
record supports such an idea. At all
events, he is just now a remarkably
happy exemplar of the old adage, Gun
lucky at cards, lucky in love-" He may
be out of the prince of Wales's set, but
if he is a person of sense he must feel
very much like man who had got tired
of wearing dog collar, and who has
taken it off from very weariness. A
man pretty well up in years, with a
beautiful American girl scarcely out OF
her teens for wife, who brings him
$15,0O0,000 or $20,OO0,O0O. can afford to
despise the petty prosecutions to which
he is subjected at the dictation Of
ROYALTY.

Isaac Murphy will ride Kingman; Fred
Taral, Pessara; Covington, Strath-
meath; Burton, VALERA; Fitzgerald,
Michael; Overton, Balgowan, and Allen,

to the post favorite, but Strathmeath
will have almost as strong following.
The winner will take down about
$4,000, the richest prize in the west
this year.
Following are the probable starters in
the race and the weights they will carry
