MR.. GLADSTONE'S WIFE
Is Going to Tell our Mothers How 9he
Trained Her Children.

Mrs. William T, Gladstone has long
been known as OneOf the most mOthcTly
women in England. When a young
wife. wears ago, she began to maze a
careful study of the bringing ~ Of
children. No trouble was too gre-1fOr
her to sp.nd upCn the children which
came to her, and that She succeeded in
finding the best methods is attaat-1 by
thepositiOns which her children occupy
in England to day. What required
years Of labor for her to learn, Mre.
Gladstone has now consented to tell in
a series Of articles which viii be pub
lishpd in The Indies Home JOuTnuR, Of
Philadelphia, during 1892 Mrs. Glad
stone calls her series Hints from q
Mothers Life" and in her articles she
will tell what should be a young
mothers first step with her baby; a
child's best surroundings; how to wash
and dress an infant; what an ideal
nursery should be; how a child can be
kept healthy, and gives, besides, some
rules which are destined to become
standard The articles will be like a
manual for the nursery, and thousands
Of American mothers will read Mrs.
G!adst5n2's words It is seldom that
a woman Of Mrs GlaQstOne'S high posi-
ton writes on such practical subject,
and this fact will lend all the more in
tcrest t. this series in the JOurmUj It
IS said that Mrs Gladstone was paid an
enormous price for the articles. and it
is ere iitable TO the 5enterprising pub
fishers that they had the hberaljty to
secure and place such material before
american mothers,

HOUSE..AFTERNOON SESSION.
To Dyke the Roanoke River.

Bill for reclaiming low lands of Roam
oke river by allowing directors of penl-
tentiary to send not more than one
hundred convicts mot employed) to the
commissioners of the counties through
which the road runs, who shall employ
them for work upon the river to prevent
overhows.
Capt. PEBBLES made an argument for
the bill and showed how it would pay
the entire State to do this work. Mr..
Wood made strong argument for the
passage of this bill and gave the reasons
for its passage. Mr.. Patterson said that
the laws OF 1889 provided that until the
penitentiary is self-sustaining it cannot
allow conyicts to be let out to private
corporations or for public purposes. All
convicts have been taken in. This bill.
would revolutionize the work OF the peni-
tentiary, and ought not to pass. Mr..
Hileman opposed the law and wanted it
tabled.
DIR. Stancill said if these Roanoke
lands were reclaimed they would pro-
duce enough corn to feed the entire
State. We only ask the convicts in cas-
the Penltentiary can spare them. Mr
Hall of Halifax urged the passage OF the
bill, and said that it would not take
money away from the penitentiary unit
1T was self-supporting. MIR. Hopkins

streets between Broadway and Los An
geles, from Temple to Third. Action
thereon was deferred for one week.
A contract between the city and John
Farrell, to dispose Of dead animals Tor
the year, and bond in the sum OF $5OO
accompanying it, were approved. The
sum paid is $2.95 for large animals and
$1.45 for small animals. Persons own
ing animals that die must deposit with
the chief of police the cost OF their
removal.
The official bond of }. M. Glass, chief
of police, with John Bryson, Sr., and
Hiram Sinsabaugh as sureties for $5oOO,
was approved.
On motion Of Mr.. Innes, the city at
action looking to the opening OF First
avenue.
The same member moved that the
city attorney draw an ordinance prohib-
iting chickens and other fowls from rum
ming at large within district No. of the
fire limits, so extended as to include the
additional territory bounded by Belle
vue avenue, CASTELAR,, Temple and New
High streets, and to report same to the
council. Adopted.
The gas and light committee reported
as follows:
We find that sixteen of the lights last
ordered by the council have been erect
ed and placed on circuit, and we recon-
mend the city clerk Immediately notify
the Electric Light company not to place
in position the remainder of the lights
ordered until further instructions by the
council.
Mr.. Summerland moved to adopt the
report, but on motion of Major Bonsall,
action thereon was deferred for week.
The city attorney presented has re-
port on the bonded system of the city,
with reference to funding the same at
rate of per cent. The report shows
the following bonds are out bearing
greater interest than 5 per cent. :.
Seventy-six thousand dollar bonds of
1870, due August /, 1895, drawing per
cent. $17 900 Main-street sewer bonds
of 1877, due July l, 1901, at per cent.
$21 900 irrigation bonds of 1878, due
April l., 1896, at PER cent; $4,000 ir-
rigation bonds of 1873 to 1880, due in 80
years, at 7 per cent; $4,000 funding
bonds of 1881, due July /, 1901, at per
cent; $150,000 general improvement
bonds of July 1, 1886. at per cent. in
terest. Altogether there are 1881, 900 of
redeemable bonds, of which 10000 is
bearing per cent. and $245, 900 is bear
ing per cent.
The city attorney advised submitting
to the people, at an election, the propo-
sition OF funding this debt. He believes
the issuance OF new bonds would be
more nearly legal thereby.
The matter was referred to the finance
committee.
There being no further business on
the table, the council then adjourned.
At nine O'Clock this morning the mem
bers of that august body will, in COM
pany with the health officer, visit the
source of the Citizens Water company's
supply, and follow the line of it's system,
and at ten O'Clock ON Wednesday morn
ing the council will meet as committee
of the whole to consider the water and
sewer questions.

TAHITI ORANGE TREES.
A Pasadenan Sends for Ship Load of
Them.

Them.
According to the following, taken
from the San Francisco Examiner, OF
Sunday, some Pasadenans are about to
send long ways for orange trees:
Parties down in the southern part OF
the state are going into the business OF
importing the Tahiti orange trees. The
stern-rigged craft Lena Sweasey was
chartered yesterday expressly for this
service, and will sail within fortnight
for Tahiti. Heretofore all Tahiti or
ange trees in this state have been grown
from such seedsas the spoiled fruit on reg
ular shipments afforded. The Sweasey's
charterer, resident of Pasadena, pro-
poses to bring young trees here in pots
and tubs. With this end in view the
Sweasey will sail with two carpenters
and enough lumber on board TO con-
struct additional topside works to pro-
tect the infant trees from possible heavy
weather.

"JUsT1CEv IN MEXICO.
An American Citizen Forcibly Takel
and Thrown Into Prison,

An American Citizen Forcibly Taken
and Thrown Into Prison.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. ia Chronicles s
San Diego special says: Some time ago
Edward Crostwaite, we'll known cattle
raiser of the country tributary to the
Mexican line, below the city, had quar-
rel with some Mexicans in Lower Cali
fornia over flock of sheep. One of the
natives took shot at him with a re-
volver, whereupon Costwaite drew his
own weapon, and, using it as a club, gave
the shooter severe beating.
He made his escape across the line, in
spite OF efforts to capture him, and had
taken particular pains to keep upon
American soil, as he had no desire for the
Kind of justice generally meted out to
Americans by the authorities at Ense-
NADIA.
Several days ago, however. word
reached this city that he had been cap
tured by Mexican, and was then on the
road to dungeon on Santos Bay. No
further particulars were obtainable until
to-day, when letter was received from
Crostwaite, which had been smuggled
out of his cell and forwarded by an
American citizen to friends in San Diego.
The letter, among other things, says:
II was not across the line when taken at
Tia Juano. The capture, as they call it,
was matter of force. I was on Ameri-
can soil, and Mexican officers came across
with weapons in their hands and made
1ne go with them. You know very well
that | would not have ventured into
Mexican territory when / was sure of
being taken the moment did it.
M''They placed me in a wagon near Tia
Juana, and tied me hand and foot, and
six rurales guarded me all the way
down. | had only one drink of water
and nothing to eat. l slept in wagon
tied fast, and in the day time the sun
nearly burned the flesh on my face. You
know l did not kill that Mexican. / only
hit him over the head with my gun, after
he had shot at me. L have had no trial
and don't expect one, if they can kill me
by inches in this dungeon.n
Crostwaite has influential friends and
relatives, and an investigation is now in
progress. If the facts are found to be as
stated, the United States Government
will be asked to take hand in the matter
and compel his release.
