MIA.
The wonderful popularity of the Penn
sylvania tours to the Golden Gate is
best illustrated by the fact that the full
complement of passengers fer the first,
starting on February 9TH. registered six
weeks before the date of the tour.
The space in the first train being all
taken engagements are now being made
for the remainder of the series. The
second tour fixed for March 3rd, is an ex-
ceedingly desirable one. on account of
the interesting route traversed, as vel
by reason of the fact that its members
are in California at what many consider
the most delightful season. of the year.
Eastern people who desire to see the
Golden Coast in its most attractive garb
could not choose more desirable OPP
portunity.
Names are being registered very rapid
ly for the second tour, and those who
wish to make their going certain should
apply at once for tickets.
The magniicently appointed train,
presenting all the comforts of home or
hotel, is not the least conspicuous feature
of these great transcontinental trips.

Tho Sensible Way.

An evening contemporary which dates
from the days Of the megatherium
plumes itself upon its upsuocessful Of
forts in aformer generation to have the
pueblo lands Of San Francisco divided
among the people instead OF allowing
them to be gobbled up by squatters.
Perhaps it would have been better luck
in tins -laudable enterprise II It had
proposed a. sensible method Of giving.
the public the beneft Of the land, In
stead of the absurd scheme Of allowing
every resident TO take possession Of .
lot. It is hardly surprising that people
generally did not appreciate the wis.
dom Of q division by which one person
would get lot that would soon be
worth 500, 600, while others would be
put off with tracts that would not sell
for $500 in fsty years, and late comers
would get none at all II the lands had
been held by the city and rented out for
the general benefit, as the new seswall
lots are to be, the whole community ia
the remotes generations would have en-
joyed the profits, everybody would have
had his just share of the advantages,
and taxation would have been for ever
unnecessary. What would be said II
somebody should suggest that the sea-
wall lots should be given away to In.
dividuals on the principal Of frst come

Thin End of the Wedge in France.

A newspaper devoted to the study Of
economic problems has Just appeared
in Paris, called the Il Essor Social u
welcomes every sort Of discussion that
has direct bearing on the social prob.
lem. That the single tax will be
brought to the attention Of its readers,
one feels sure when he sees among tho
contributors to the FIRST number the
name of NJ. Charles NJ. Garnier, the
youthful and talented htterateur, who
recently brilliantly passed one Of tho
most difficult examinations for ad.
yancement in the governmental literary
department. M. GARNER sees clearly
that the single tax is . remedy for tho
present social ills; and at the interns-
tional congress in 1889 at Paris, he Ia.
bored earnestly for it's success. His
recent long stay in England, In the
neighborhood of London, where he
studied the evils OF landholding in their
direct form, has given him facts and
figures which he Is enabled powerfully

Ell Dorado.

There is nothing obscure in the ETY.
/, mology of this Spanish phrase which
means literally ''the Gilded;" yet to
such an extent has it been abused that
few know that it originally related to a
man and not to a country. In the lat
ter sense it has been applied to almost
every gold bearing district encountered
in America since the discovery; and
there is scarcely q mining camp in our
far west but has named, it's richest
lode or most popular resort, whether
grog-shop, billiard saloon or theater,
Eldorado. AS early as the sixteenth
century it served to designate an imag-
mary region abounding in gold and
precious stones in the interior of South
America; but prior to this acceptation
it had. become a synonym for the most
remarkable legend Of the new world,
the supposed eastern proximity Of which
invested it's unexplored territory with
the glamour of oriental romance. The
term was, indeed, an appellation OF
royalty. and Ell Dorado, perhaps, YER

Warmed into confidence by this "lov-

was very rich man, having fifteen
wives, fifty ponies, and many sheep.
Through the interpreter, we replied
that we were not Spaniards, nor
descendants of Spaniards, and that
we had read with pleasure how his an
cestors had withstood the conquerors;
that we sympathized with his warriors
and knew from these facts that they
were very brave The delighted chief
beamed from top to toe with pleasure,
and whispered something to squaw,
who left the room and presently re-
turned with an armful Of human skulls.
From most of them the face part had
been partially cut away. and all were
worn perfectly smooth. The grinning
chief assured ,,us that every skull was
