JUVENILE WORKERS.
Their Productions on Exhibition at Six
teenth Street School.


= teenth Street School.
Some time ago the HERALD gave a
short description of the museum at the
Spring street school, cared for by the
pupils, and the articles on exhibition
loaned or given by scholars OF all grades.
1t seems that several other schools have
similar museums, and the school-report-
er while visiting Sixteenth street school
on the occasion of the memorial day ex-
ercises was conducted by Miss Gordon
into room at the end of the hall on the
second floor, where the scholars of that
school had made vory creditable dis
play of their handiwo1k, along with
numerous curious and odd objects gath
cred by the pupils.
A collection OF woods from all parts
of the county made by Charlie Stander
is one of the most interesting exhibits
in the rooms.
A collection of geological specimen
does credit to the diligence and good
taste of Ledia Kinney.
A pencil drawing of the interior of the
Wilson's peak observatory bears the
name of Aurelius Hutton. 1t is very
we'll executed.
Joey Laventhal, quite little fellow,
by the way, exhibits two photographs of
groups of schoolmates and teachers,
taken by himself.
A very well executed oil painting ia
the work of Bessie Kinsey.
Edward Salisbury's name is attached
to very elaborate and complicated
piece of wood with penknife.
A Iiff1a o1oor, tuith tho Jato,1o o<>uJ
age and rigging remarkably accurate, is
shown as the work of little Lewis
O'Harre, who studied cyclopedia arti-
Gle faithfully to obtain the knowledge
necessary for the good work done.
In the way of curiosities there are
several slips of paper upon which dis
membered flies have been pasted, show
ing the details OF their anatomy.
Two excellent drawings of the Califor-
mia state seal are shown, as executed by
Lille Magee and Gustave Knecht.
A beautiful bunch of tissue paper
flowers is shown, made by the deft fin
gers of Carrie Gass.
Ladra Kinney has on exhibition a
handsome design for wood carving.
Joie Hill took dogs head for a sub
ject-a bull dog at that-and painted it
in oils.
Clara Wright sent dainty drawn
work pocket handkerchief.
The most extensive exhibitor is Frank
Goodman, who is II years old and in the
sixth grade. He has a number of fine
pencil drawings and crayon sketches,
which are all remarkably well executed,
and said to have been done without the
aid OF teacher.
Johnnie Thomas has another very in
teresting exhibit in the shape of box
of carefully mounted butterflies, all of
which Master Johnnie had watched out
of the chrysalis stage into their present
condition.
In addition to these pieces of work by
the children themselves there are many
curious and beautiful objects in the
museum and samples of the regular
school work too numerous to mention.

ANNIE GUsHINGToN: We cannot ad-
wise YOU as to what would be the most
becoming to wear as sash about the
waist of your new tennis gown. Your
letter suggests the thought that blazer
sleeve enveloping masculine arm might
fill the bill after dark, but we do not ad-
wise you to try this.
MAUD S.: Yes, you should break off
with George by all means before accept
ing Harry You might work two for a
while, but experience has shown others
in your position that they are both sure
to call on the same night some time, and
that would be awkward. Don't be hog
gish, Maud; give the other girls show.
MAY: Yes, chaperones will still be
in vogue at the seaside this summer.
This is one Of the many customs that
convenience has nothing to do with.

MISS MILDRED'S BIRTHDAY DINNER AT
REDONDO HOTEL.

Nine sweet childish faces, nine, brown little
heads,
All there in their places, with cheeks rosy red;
Tis Miss Mildred's birthday, eight summers are
gone.
This, is her, dinner party, celebrating the day
she was born.
See those bright sparkling eyes, as the cake is
brought on
Candles in bright colored dyes, eight in mum
Der thereon;
The table is smothered in smilax al d roses.
The room symphony in beautiful posies
The band in the gallery plays music divine,
While nine merry voices ring out in chime.
SO happy, blithesome and joyous are they
May their lives ever be SO, we devoutedly pray.

A FRUSTRATED SQUEEZE.

"What is the matter with your arm,
Mr.. Rusher?" said Sarah Coldleigh as
the gay young man with whom she was
sitting on the sofa made an attempt to
encompass her waist.
''N-nothing that know Of" replied
the embarrassed Rusher.
'strange, said she, 81 thought it was
dis-located." And it took jast ten min
utes for Rusher to see the point.

THE ABLE JURYMAN.

"The case is plain one," said Farmer
Hayseed, after he had been chosen fore
man of the jury. SIN our instructions
the Judge says we must find that the de-
ceased was killed with malice afore-
thought in order to bring in verdict of
murder in the first degree. Now the de-
fendant says himself that he used an
axe" And the prisoner was promptly
acquitted.

PICK UPS.

Word comes from Bakersfield that a
social revolution is in progress there
which threatens the entire upheaval of
the early traditions of the place. 1t was
all brought about by the managers ofthe
Southern hotel importing from the east
a steward, whose strictly enforced ideas
of dining-room etiquette have brought
down on his head the scorn and con-
tumely of all the old settlers.
One day not long ago one of Kern
county's principal men, who is rough
diamond as far as the outward marks
of civilization go, but as rich as he is
rough, came into town and, having reg
istered at the tavern" took off his
coat and entered the dining-room to en-
joy Square meal"
The dude steward met him at the door
and with bow and much politeness,
said: Excuse me, sir, but there are
ladies in here and I cannot allow you to
enter without coat. l will look around
and try to borrow garment for you !;
but really"
"Why? blank blank you, you white
lvered tenderfoot," shouted the irate
pioneer, II can buy this hotel twice
over! What in hi do you mean, any
how? suppose you will be wanting us
to wear diamonds and put on one of
them id claw-hammers next before
we can feed This place is getting too
rich for my blood" And he straight
way transferred his custom to another
and less pretentious hotel. The steward
still insists on the guests of the house
keeping their coats on while feeding"
however. and the good old people of
Bakersfield are justly indignant.

AND THEY ALL wEpT.

"If you have tears, prepare to shed

orator, and he couldn't understand why,
little later on, after he had got off a
funny but chestnutty anecdote, every
body placed their handkerchiefs to their

SALINE cUUHrY's PEE CAPITA.

Secretary Mohler's July report has
just been received, and In looking
over the tables, Saline county At
tracted our attention, and from u
and our own knowledge Of Saline
county, We make the following
figures.
There has been raised In this county
alone this year from III. 900 acres, e.
timated at Is bushels TO the acre, and
counting that We market Il at rs cts.
per bushel, q, -, go worth Of wheat.
From 81, 100 acres planted In corn,
with an average Of SO bushels to the
acre, and selling It at 20 cts. per
bushel, we will get s722. go. From
II $50 acres In oats, ct 50 bushels TO
the acre, and selling at IS cts. we will
get tl9l ,025. In the county we have
IO,55s head Of horses, valued ct 900. 90
per hesd, they would bring rs $780,
$50. We have 745 mules, at $500 Q
head, they are worth t55, s75. We
also have S0.90s head Of cattle, aver
aged at 5000 per head would bring
Us In t6l8.l60. And 1,6S0 head Of
sheep at t2.OO per head, are worth
IS 5000, while 1885 head Of hogs,
st $500 per head, are worth 10 rs
t64, $50. 10 all about ts, rocco. Add
10 this our immense fruit crop which
cannot be estimated ut less than
SIS, 900, and the hay crop, say 100, 200
tons, ut t4.0O per ton, and the total
10 away over 100000 Then add
the broom corn, and sorghum crop,
and the immense amount Of garden
truck raised, and ct the very lowest
estimate, the product Of Saline
county's soil this year, cannot be
put ct less than $500, 900. Now
please remember that this 10 simply
the total on our merchautable
articles, stuff that can be converted
into cash, u need be, within thirty
days, and the owner have the money
for It In his pocket.
We have . population In this
county Of men, women and children,
amounting to 1900 all told, aud n
you would divide equally the above
total, It will give $3.50 90 In money 10
each individual. Divide It simply
among the heads Of the families Of
the county, and It will give each one
the snug sum OF 81 $50 90. Add to
this the real estate owned by our
people, the product Of our mills,
factories, etc and it does seem a. n
our people are Ia right easy circum-
stances. We are Q little at sea ss 10
the per capita In the United States,
but as to our own people here In
Saline county, We can figure It out
very easily.
II Bro. PETER wants any per capita
figures he can get them very easily,
from each county In his state, and
when he gets them all totaled up he
won't have energy enough left to
make . decent calamity speech.

This 10 Swedish FOrefathers' Day,
and large number Of our Swedish
fellow citizens are holding Q picnic
over In the park In commemoration
Of the landing OF the Svsdes In Del
aware. OF all the nations Of Europe
who have contributed 10 the popula-
ton Of the United States there are
none who are more welcome 10 our
shores than these sturdy, honest and
intelligent sons Of the Scandinavian
peninsula. The spirit Of freedom
seems born In them, and the readi-
ness with which they accept our
forms Of government and follow our
customs, shows that they arr emil.
nently we'll fitted for self govern
ment, and the enjoyment Of freedom
In the highest sense.
You probably never saw nor heard
Of Swedish socialist or anarchist;
we never did. President 9wensson,
Of Bethany College, says they are
not built that way, In . paper before |
the State Historical Society, and
Mr.. SWensson 10 an authority on
SWedes. When the dark clouds Of |
war hung over the land, these gal
liant sons Of the Vikings sprsng to

patriotic herolsm aud devotion are
emblsEoned upon the shining pages
Of our country's history. They gave
rs Ericsson, who saved our ports
from the ravAges Of the iron clads Of
the south with bis little monitor,
and many other noble and iilustrious
men, Of whom we may well be proud.
Nor are their deeds confined TO this
one thing. Look around you, right
