PREPARING A PROTEST.
Property Holders object to Proposed

Property folders Object to a Proposed
Extension.
The Post-street Extension Protective As
ISOLATION met last evening in the rooms of
the Bear Club, corner of Post and Fillmore
streets, Charles H. Hubs presiding James
Brady, Chairman of the Committee on Ways
and Means, reported that all property Id
ers in the district affected by the proposed
extension of Post street had signihed their
intention of protesting agains1 the report as
submitted by the present commission, and
that nearly all had signed the protest as
drawn up by the association. III. Schwartz
and A. w. Whelden were chosen TO present
the petition TO the Supervisors on Monday
next, and the Secretary was instructed to
notify all prOperty-ownerS to be present at
tile meeting of the board Cd the evening Of
that day.
Besides the fault found with excessive
damages and unequal assessment. the line
of the proposed extension is all wrong, ac-
cording to the views of persons holding
property in the territory through which the
extension will run. Commencing at Central
avenue the street will pass i'll northwest
erly direction at an angle of about fifteen
degrees to the present line of Post street and
about eighty five degrees to Central avenue,
crossing the prospective line Of Suffer street
between Cook and BoYce.
The people holding property in this dis
trct think the extension should follow a
straight line from Central TO First avenues.

ANIMALS AND DOORS.
Queer Effects of Lavender Water on
Lion, the Leopard, Etc.

Queer Effects of Lavender Water on a
Lion, the Leopard, Etc.
a writer in the Spectator, wishing to test
for himself the reported fOndness of many
animals for perfumes, paid series Of visits
to the Geological Gardens provided with
bottles of scent and a packet Of cotton wool.
and there tried some harmless experiments
which apparently gave great satisfaction to
many of the inhabitants. Lavender water
was the fayoTite scent, and most of the lions
and le0pards showed unqualified pleasure
when the scent was poured on the wool and
put into their cages. The first leopard to
which it was offered stood over the ball Of
cotton, shut its eyes, opened its mouth and
screwed up its nose. He then lay down and
held it between its paws, rubbed its
face over it, and finished by lying
down upon it. Another leopard
smelt it and sneezpd; then caught
the wool in its claws, PLAYED with
it, then lay on its back and rubbed its head
and neck over the scent. 1t then fetched
another leopard which was asleep In the
cage and the two shifted it for some time
together, and the last conner ended by taking
the ball IN its teeth, curling its lip well back
and inhaling the delightful perfume with
half-shut eyes. The lion aud lioness, when
their turn came, tried to roll upon it at the
same time. The lion then gave the liOness
a cuff with his paw, which sent her oil TO
the back Of the cage, and having secured
it for himself laid his broad head on
the morseI Of scented cotton and pured.
These were all old inhabitants Of the
garden, civilized. But at the end of
the building was the lovely young SoSoto
lion, with the spots Of "cubhood" still show
ing like pattern il damask on his skin. If
he, too, lik ed the scent, il could hardly be
an acquired taste. HIS reception OF the new
impression was different from that of the
Others He lay down, inhaling the scent
with a dreamy look in bis eyes Then be
made faces and yawned, turned his back on
the scent and thought. He then inhaled the
perfume again for some time, walked slowly
off TO his bed and lay down tC sleep. That
the pleasure felt by so many animals in the
odor Of sweet lavender" is due 10 pure and
simple enjoyment OF perfume, made in
tersely more delightful 10 them than our
selves by the wonderful development OF
their sense Of smell, seems clear, not only
from the factthat 50 many species share this
amiabe fOndness for the scent but because
their fOHdHess for perfumes Is by no means
limite 10 that of lavender.

WINE BOUQUETS.


Segregated Ferments VIII Be Introduced
in This State.
George Payne, an English chemist, will
arrive i'll this city within fortnight. He
is the authorized introducer of segregated
ferments, a discovery Of the immortal
Pasteur Of ''microbe" fame, and he will
conduct several experiments and Introduce
the system in the great wine districts of
California. After stating that '1ocal ex-
perts have not much faith in his idea" the
Pacific Wine and Spirit Review says:

The result Of processes OF life and vegetation in
lower organisms, IS fungi aud bacteria.
The practical advantage OF ierments is found
in the conduct Of the modern brewer, who, in-
stead OF leaving his ferments to chance or I'M
certainty maSes a careful cultivation OF his
leoure or yeast. thus gaining complete control
over his lei IDeutaIiOD.
Following out certain views on fermentation,
French mieroblologIcal chemist and burgundy
wne-grOWer thought that The special bouquets
OF Bordeaux, burgundy aud other wines were
caused by special feTmentS. Seven years of
patient study have proved the Soundness of this
view, and To-day the special fern hts OF a long
list OF wines. G. z. Bordeaux, MaTgauX, St
Emon, Grand Champagne Cognac. Chablis,
SauieTne, Riesling, Pommard, Beaujolals and
many others, have been segregated.
In 1889 the experiments were concluded, and
specia! samples of ferments were gwen 10 about
three hundred negrowerS Ia Algeria ana
France for trial, with the result that for the vim
Lag9 of 1890 leOureS equal 10 $4,000 gallons OF
wine were purchased by The wine growers, while
for the vintage OF 1891 leoures Tor II 100000
