Asa Vaughan is contemplating
branching out as snake charmer. He
says he can't even go out after few
grape birds without attracting the at
cention of three or four rattlers. On a
recent trip in the country their atten-
ton became so pressing thst he had to
treat three of them pretty roughly, and
he now bangles their scalps at his belt.
One was monster, with set Of rattles
over teree inches in length. Asa de-
clares there were two many to count.
Another had thirteen rattles and an
other little smaller. This is the best
snake story of the season, but Mr..
Vaughan carries the documents to sub
stantlate the narrative right with him
all the time.-[Ex.

A BULL IN A CHINA SHOP.

That is an extraordinary story that
comes to us from England about how
France and Russia we're brought to-
gether as quasi allies. 1t seems, accord
ing to this revelation, that Emperor
William laid bare to his grandmother,
Queen Victoria, his plans for the imme-
date provocation of hostilities with
France, which he considered the condi-
ton of Germany forced upon him. He
declared that his country was better
prepared at that time for war than it
would be at any subsequent time; in
fact that Germany could not stand the
strain much longer, whilst France was
becoming stronger with delay. In other
words, that Germany had reached the
food tide of her military strength and if
advantage were not taken of it, she
would perhaps find herself forced into
hostilities upon waning prestige and
with diminished capacity for successful
war. Knowing the hayward and i'm
petuous nature of her grandson, the
queen was justly alarmed, and sent for
suade the emperor from his avowed de-
termination. That diplomat declined
to do SO for fear that his opposition
would have the contrary effect; but he
advised the queen to urge the car to
make friendly approaches to France,
looking to a coalition of the two pow
ers in case of war, believing that this
move would bring William quickly to
his senses. This was done, says the
dispatch, with the result we have seen.
II the stony is true, it raises Salisbury
higher as a diplomat than any
other known act of his as premier OF
England. Such coup would be worthy
of the keen depth of Guizot or Gort-
schakoff, and would place new feather
in the diplomatic cap OF even Talleyrand
himself. But there is very significant
moral in all this. Is it not strange that
in this age of the world the peace of
Europe should hang upon the within of
one man, and he of so uneven temper
that at any moment he might allow his
judgment to be dominated by his pas
sion and precipitate war that would
cost hundreds OF thousands of lives and
an in6nity of treasure? It will be
remembered that the report came to
us some months ago that William, when
he heard that his mother had been
rather rudely received in Paris, in an
access of passion, issued orders to mo-
bilize the army. But, fortunately, the
officers to whom these grave orders were
issued found means to delay their pro-
mitigation until Victoria had assured
the irate emperor that the action of the
Parisians was not sufficient cause for
the dangerous step he was about to take.
With such monarch as William it is
impossible to say when he will make
break that will result in grave compli-
cations and perhaps bring on actual
hostilities.

THE Santiago authorities claim the
right to arrest any one who enters or
leaves the American embassy-of course
meaning Chileiios who have sought
sanctuary under the stars and stripes.
There does not seem to be anything re-
pugnant to international law in this
claim. In the old law of sanctuary
and the older law of city of refugees
the immunity only lasted while the
threatened people stayed within the
prescribed bounds. If Minister Egan is
giving sanctuary to lot OF Chilean ref
ugees, he had better keep them within
his domicile, and feed them until the
hot blood of the junta shall course more
mildly in erstwhile insurgent veins. If

Our public schools opened yesterday
for the new school year. The attend
ance was five hundred greater than at
any previous opening, and the month
will close with an attendance of between
seven and eight thousand. The great
increase of school children, as shown by
the recent school census, indicates a
population of from $4,000 to 10000 in
Los Angeles. The city is filing up very
rapidly, and the demand for good resi-
dence houses is greater than the supply.
With the influx of winter visitors from
the east, our hotels and boarding houses
will soon be filed, and every residence
win be occupied. This winter will
demonstrate very emphatically the need
ola large irst-class modern hotel in
this city.

FIVE YEARS AFTER.

Under the flowers on the mountain,
Under the dew and the sun,
Rests poor Helen Hunt Jackson,
Her life-work faithful ly done;
Cloud-swept and storm kissed,
The lonely spot and grave,
Bitterly wept and sadly missed,
Fond hearts could not save.
Under our peaceful, cloudless sky,
Under the roof of faithful Don,
Her writing Ia Bile and tablet lie,
Where her brightest laurels were won;
Gifted pen and tireless brain,
Their mission have we'll fulfilled;
Spotless soul, without one stain,
Love in all hearts instilled.
Under the flowers on the mountain,
Under the pines and the sod,
Overlooking the sparkling fountain
OF Manitou, the Indians God;
Winter storms and summer winds
Sweep, all unheeded, by,
While in loving hearts and thoughtful minds
Her memory will never die.
