Peterson's Magazine for June abounds in
practical suggestions to ladies preparing
for the summer. The peculiarly commend
able feature of this magazine is that atten-
ton is given to the palmer models and thus
the ordinary woman who rarely INDUCES in
costly raiment finds each month some pat
tern suited to her need. The literary mat
ter is of high order, and the engravings
beautiful, there are also attractive designs
for needle work The history of the tulip
to which is given NEUROLOGICAL origin
Tulipa, Dolmation maiden, pursued by an
unwelcome lover having been metamor-
phosed into this glowing flower, is of
created largely from the fact that no
flower has created quite such a mania in
monetary circles as did the tulip in Holland
during the Eighteenth century.
The illustrations in the instructive sketch
of Hereford and Huntingdon. two noted
English shires, are extremely pleasing.
''All about Miss Lingard'' is a story in
the best style of the author, Frank Lee Ben
edict.
In short the current number contains
matter to suit the varied tastes of the many
readers and is well worth the subscription
price, 81 a year. The address is Peterson's
Magazine, BOG Chestnut street, PhiIadel-
phia.
The popular publishing house of chill

of these monthlies, places them within
reach Of all; the first is sent for 81 a
year and the second for wee ones for the
small sum of fifty cents. The illustrations
are in themselves educators; many of them
can be copied by the little folk and thus
afford employment for rainy day.

DO We NEED IA NAVY?

Emphatically No.
No Need to Spend Millions for
Naval Defense.
John Bull is Our Only Foe, and He
Dare Not Fight.
LIN 1900 the Ships Now Building viii

Galleys.
Associated Press Dispatches.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-An article
contributed to New York Truth, by ex-
Senator Ingalls,, which created much
comment, is IN substance as follows:
The annual shrek about our defense
less coast and bombardment of New
York, Philadelphia and Boston, has not
been omitted. The yearly pamphlet
describing blood-curdling incidents of a
war with Chile and Spain in 1905, has
been sent to each senator and represen-
tative in congreis. The editorial esti-
mates in the metropolitan press of the
amount of property within the reach of
the Italian ironclads, in the lower bay,
and the ransom that could be extortel
from the merchants and bankers,
have all been submitted and
fled away for use again in 1892.
Their purpose is to reconcile the peo-
pie to the passage OF naval appropria-
tion bill, and to enormous and profli-
gate expenditures in time of peace for
ships, Notifications and munitions of
war.
The capacity of the United States to
CICdtC a navy III GIL SCllCy Wdo oCLl-
onstrated in the rebellion. The duel
between the Monitor and Merrimac, in
Hampton roads, revolutionized warfare,
and the problem has since been to con-
struct armor that no projectiles could
penetrate, and then to invent projectiles
that no arfhor could resist. The Euro
pean nations have been conducting these
expensive experiments hitherto, and the
ships of 1880 are already anti
quated. Dynamite and other
explosives complicate the situation,
and the navy we are now building at a
cost of $50, 1000, 900, will be as worthless
In 1900, as Roman galley. England,
France and Italy would gladly sell us
their floats, at 30 per cent. of their cost.
The millions we are squandering on
vessels, would better be spent for earth
works and powerful guns to cover every
roadsted, channel and harbor which
hostile fleet could threaten or assail.
Is there any necessity for spending
millions every year for naval defense?
Our enemy is England, and she is under
bond to keep the peace. No other ma
tion is 80 vulnerable, and none so de-
tested. She has incurred the resent
ment of the human race, by centuries Of
injustice.
England kicked us when we were
helpless and feeble; she sacked and
burned our defenseless capital. She
kicked Ireland; che kicked Egypt; she
kicked the Hindoos, Zulus, Beers and
Chinese; but she is not in the habit of
kicking her equals. In our civil war
she did all she could, short OF open
hostility, to destroy the union, and then
apolOgized and paid damages. Lately
ho1 nh coo1-
poaching in the Bering sea. A casus
belli could easily have been found if
wanted, and we were assured that
danger was imminent, Immense ap-
preparations were promptly voted for
Notifications and the navy, and then
when the national hair was standing on
end, England suddenly came into our
supreme court as suitor, and submitted
the whole controversy to that great
tribunal. 1t was reassuring; but it was
laughable nevertheless.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-03-07

The appeal case of Moore vs. Ander-
son came up yesterday before Judge
Mckinley in department. five for argu-
ment, and on being submitted to the
court, was taken under advisement.
The calendars of departments one and
six Of the superior court being clear yes
terday, Judges B. N. Smith and Lucien
Shaw did not transact any business in
their respective courtrooms.
The trial of the cause of the Los An
geles Pressed Brick and Terra Gotta
company VS.. the Simpson M. E. church
was resumed before Judge Pierce,
of San Diego, sitting for Judge
Clark, in department two, yesterday, and
occupied his attention all day. The act
ion is brought to recover the sum of
$1400 alleged to be due for brick and
other materials furnished during the
construction of the Simpson tabernacle,
but which the trustees of the church
deny having ordered. The suit will, in
all probability, be brought to close to-
day.
PROBATE PETITIONS.
Among the documents filed with the
county clerk yesterday, were the follow
ing petitions in matters OF probate
business:
That of Mrs. Sarah A. Kilgore, of
Pasadena, for the probate of the will of
her deceased husband, Chas. H. Kilgore,
who died on the lst inst, leaving the

husband, James D. Feehan, who died
February 4th last, leaving real and per-
sonal property valued at $4,000, consist
ing of household furniture and effects, a
house and lot on Twenty-third street,
thirteen acres of land in the American
colony tract, and lot at Clearwater.
That of William H. Ellsworth, for let
ters of administration to the estate of

NEW ORLEANS, March 6.-When Politz
was brought into court, this morning,
his face was blanched and he looked
badly frightened. He was taken into
the private office of the sheriff, where
he created sensation and fell into
a furious rage, waving his hands in the
air and beating his breast. mamma,
mamma, my wife, my wife," he
screamed, and then threw himself vio-
lently on a lounge and cried. He lay there
for long time while two deputies tried
vainly to pacify him. Suddenly he
jumped up again and once more he tore
his hair and pleaded for mercy. He
began to act like q raving maniac, and
it required the combined efforts of two
deputies to prevent him from doing
himself harm. He made rush for the
window, and attempted to throw him
self out, but was held and overpowered
by the officers and securely handcuffed.
1t is said that Politz's mind is giving
away under the great strain, and that
he is unable to control himself

Discovery.
CHICAGO, March 6.-The Takamine
Ferment company, organized by the
whisky trust to exploit new process
of whisky-making, invented by the
Japanese chemist, Takamine, has in
600. The salient point in the
process is microbe or ferment
cell of superior power, produced from a
fungus growth on rice. Its use permits
the completion of fermentation in fifty
two hours, as against seventy-two here
tofore; besides greatly cheapening it
and enlarging the volume of production
from a like quantity of grain. A calcu-
lation based ON the output of maltsters,
brewers, distillers and others using the
ferments, makes the yearly value OF the
discovery equivalent to $23 900, 900.

IDAHO MUDDLES.
Queer Complication Around the
United States Judgeship.

United States Judgeship.
WASHINGTON, March GA queer COM
plication surrounds the question Of
United States district judge for Idaho.
The president appointed Mr.. Beattie for
the place; he failed of confirmation. The
point has been made that as this is a
new office, it can only be filed by and
with the advice and consent of the SEN
ate, and the presidents attempt so to
fill it having failed, he cannot appoint a
man now and have him serve until the
senate can act on the nomination. The
question is under consideration at the
department of justice.
An important step has been taken in
the settlement of the contest over Sem
ator Dubois of Idaho. His name has
been put on the roll of senators, and he
will receive his pay as a duly elected
United States senator from that state.
Senator Edmunds says the law and
precedents sustain this action.

MEXICO AND CUBA
Will Have Splendid Exhibits at the
Worlds Fair.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-Lieutenant
A. G. Baker, the commissioner sent on
behalf of the Columbian exposition to
Mexico, forwards an interesting plan
for the Mexican exhibit at the expo

This plan represents the history OF Mex
leo from the Aztecs to the present time,
and is a history of the human race and
habitations in this country. Lieutenant
Baker says exact drawings and plans
of the grounds will be given, and the
artistic skill of those engaged upon the
enterprise warrants the assurance that
it will be carried out in manner credit
able to the republic of Mexico.
