A Business woman's Lesson.

A business woman often takes letters
and packages to the general postoffice to
be weighed. AS often as she has done
that she has been impressed anew with
the weak and trivial curiosity of the
male mind, for every time she handed in
something to be weighed the busy men
in charge stopped to turn it over and
read the address
"It certainly beats anything" she said
to herself, Ito think of anything being
as curious as that"
A few days ago she repeated this ex-
perience-up to certain point. The
variation began when the examining
magnate said cheerfully: "Be a good
idea, wouldn't it, for you to put on here
the state these here papers is goin' to?
Yes, certainly. Ill write it for you.
Guess I've saved 500 bundles from being
lost in the last three weeks, lookin to sec
if they was directed all right. don't
bother about the men; don't care so
much about their bundles, and then
they've got more head for looking to
such things; but l always look at the
ladies' bundles. Ten cents" And the
crushed business woman walked away
with all the sad dignity she could mas
ter.-New York Sun.

why He Never Licks Stamps.

One day after coming from the post
Office put a dozen stamps in my desk
and closed the lid. Then went away
and returned again an hour or SO after
ward. Upon opening my desk l saw
upon these stamps at least dozen big,
nasty looking reaches, or ''water bugs,
as they are sometimes called. They
seemed to be SO intent upon some occu-
patton that they did not run away with
the almost lightninglikes rapidity with
which they usually disappeared when
ever the desk was opened.
At first thought that they were stuck
to the stamps. but upon observing lit
tie closer saw that they moved about,
and was finally convinced that they
were eating the gum from the backs of
the stamps. BY placing a large reading
glass so as to magnify the reaches, OBJ
served that they secreted a saliva on the
gum and then when it became soft they
seemed to suck it off. Little bare spots
appeared on the stamps, and these spots
gradually grew larger until the stamps
had the appearance of stamps from
which had imagined the gum had
evaporated.
Since that time you may be sure
never touch my tongue to postage
stamp, and it almost nauseates me to see
any one else do it.-Interview in New
York Tribune.

HUTcH's METHODS.
A Street Contractor Makes a Loud
Complaint.

"A street Contractor Makes Loud
Complaint.
"In the matter of sidewalking Flower
street from Twenty-third to Adams
street, the clerk reported that he had
been notified on the 11th inst. that David
Mulrein had refused his contract for
said work, and it was necessary for the
council therefore to take some action,
as there were advertising bills to be
paid.
"Upon motion OF Councilman Rhodes
the clerk was directed to readvertise for
bids, and, there being some legal OBJ
tion to David Mulrein, he was excluded
from bidding thereon"
Referring to the above statements Mr..
Mulrein says that he has taken several
contracts with the city to do street work
and owing to protracted delays in the
management of the street superintend-
ent's office he is kept out OF large sums
of money. In one instance where he
did work for the city on Bellevue avenue
he is kept out of the cost of the work
and out of $50, and more hard none y
put up for incidental expenses. In an :
other contract on Grand avenue he is
out the cost of the work and $1l5.
And 80 the affair runs. Mr.. Null
rein tried to get the maps and assess
ments, but got nothing but disappoint-
ment. The council is reported to have
ordered the engineer to take all his men
off of all work except the outfall sewer.
Now an average contractor does not
have bank at his back to put up
money by the sack full, as the city of
ficials, like those of ancient Rome, sit in
their lazy dignities and keep poor men
out of their money for weeks and
months. 1t is decided hardship to be
so treated, and injury is heaped on in
jury in this case by barring the con-
tractor from getting work unless he is
prepared to 60 on putting up his hard
earned coin without limit. These
matters, like curses, will come home to
roost. So our street superintendent
will find when he comes before the peo-

CARRIED CLIMBERS.
A SUCCESSFUL PLAN FOR TRAVEL
ING DEADHEAD.
Conductor Sippy Tumbles to Hobo's Lit
tie Racket-A Scheme Which Secures
Free Travel and Free Meals as Well.

Conductor Sippy of the Southern
Pacific discovered the very latest dodge
by which impecunious travellers now
beat the railroads.
On his way into Los Angeles yester-
day Sippy picked up at Volcano some
Western Union company's repair men.
They all had their tools with them and
presented one pass for the party. Sippy
stuck checks in their hat bands and
passed on through the train. AS he
came back he noticed man sitting near
the party who had no check in his
hat.
"Where's your check ?" the con-
ductor queried.
"Why, don't know" replied the
man, taking off his hat and looking at
it as if he expected to see the pasteboard
there.
"Are you with shose Western Union
fellows?" continued Sippy.
'Why course. We have pass that
covers all of u.s." was the answer.
Sippy went to the man who had the
pass and asked him if the first fellow
was OF his party.
"No sir" was the decided response.
By this time the train had reached
Beaumont and Sippy said to the tramp
who had tried to beat his way, "You
get off here You are not mentioned in
the pass"
"All right" responded the fellow, 'if
l must, must" and he picked up a
pair of climbers, such as telegraph men
strap to their legs with which to 60 up
poles.
"What are you doing with these ?"
asked Sippy.
"Why, / am travelling around the
country on these" answered the hobo.
II got these in New York and have
worked all the railroads and section
bosses between there and here by play
ing the telegraph repairer dodge" and,
singing the climbers on his shoulder,
the fellow walked off.
Railroad men will appreciate the eff
fectiveness of this dodge. Telegraph
linemen are allowed many privileges on
railroads, and oftentimes need no pass
or ticket, their tools being their creden-
tials. 1t is the custom also for section
bosses on the desert and in unfrequent-
ed regions to afford them the hospital
ity of a meal when they drop in
unexpectedly. An audacious man with
pair of climbers and coil of wire
could very easily beat his way on all the
roads in the country, as this fellow
Sippy discovered probably has done
ever since he struck the idea.

Ever since the organization of the So

ously gathering all kinds of historical
matter, until their collection weighs
several tons. 1t consists of books,
newspapers, maps, photographs, rare
manuscripts, scrap-books, relics, speci-

title from the United States to the four

Proceedings at Yesterdays Meeting OF
the Committee.
The executive committee of the Cit
rus Fair association were in session the
entire day at the rooms of the chamber
of commerce.
There were present E. W. Holmes OF
Riverside, f. j. Smith of Pomona, E.
f. G. Klokke of Los Angeles and John
Scott of Duarte.
E. w. Holmes occupied the chair; G..
D. Willard acted as secretary.
The greater part of the time was con-
sumed in the appointment of judges.
There were forty-four classes to be pro-
vided for, and the work proved very
difficult, and consumed a great deal of
time. The appointments were at last
all completed, but must be sent to the
various delegations for their ratification.
A number of applications for space
and other matters were considered. 1t
was decided to request Stephen M.
White of Los Angeles, and w. HI. Mills
OF San Francisco to speak on the open
ing night.
a long discussion took place on the
matter OF allotment OF space, and it was
decided to allot the best sections of
space in the hall to those localities
which showed desire to make a dis
play OF a sort that would prove of an
especially creditable nature.
The secretary was instructed to write
to each OF the delegates to ascertain
what was being done in his section and
report at the next meeting of the COM
mittee.
The committee then adjourned, sub
iect to the call OF the secretary.

A CAMPAIGN ISSUE.
Movement to Create the County of
Riverside.

Movement to Create the County of
Riverside.
"The campaign has opened in San
Bernardino county" said George D.
Frost OF Riverside last night, land the
main issue will be the division OF the
county," says the San Francisco Call.
"All of the political plums of all the
municipal government are centered in
and confined to the city of San Bernar-
dino, the county seat, which has sue
ceeded in antagonizing every other Sec
ton of the county by the selfish policy
of the local bosses, who have subserved
every interest to that of their own town.
s'The county, which has an immense
area, has been rapidly increasing in
population and wealth during the past
few years, but in this prosperity and
advancement the district around and
including San Bernardino has had little
share.
Notwithstanding the growth OF the
other towns and villages, road moneys
and funds for public improvements have
been almost entirely expended in and
about the county seat.
s'The general dissatisfaction at this
one-sided policy eliminated about two
years ago in an effort to remove the
county seat to Cotton, small town,
but more centrally located that San
Bernardino. A petition, signed by a
majority of the voters, was presented to
the supervisors, asking them to call an
election upon the removal question. as
required by the political code. The
supervisors, majority of whom were
San Bernardino men, quashed the petit
tion upon technicality, and the mat
ter was temporarily dropped.
"The next step was the attempt to in
duce the members of the last legislature
to pass an act creating the county of
Riverside out of the present county of
San Bernardino. Everyone knows how
the bill was defeated.
"This year the people are so de-
termined to so express themselves at
the polls that there will be no need of
purchasing legislators and no chance of
charge of bribery made. The plan is
to elect an assemblyma and state
senator pledged to county division, and
as two-thirds of the people residing in
the most populous and highly cult
vated portion of the county favor the
scheme success seems almost certain.
"The proposed county will include
Riverside, Ontario, Redlands, Cotton,
Banning, Beaumont, Chino and Alessan-
dro, comprising the most valuable por-
ton of the citrus and deciduous fruit
lands of the municipality. Riverside
will probably be named as the county
seat, and so much enthusiasm has been
created by the movement that the anti
divisionists of San Bernardino are. only
opposing it in half-hearte0 manner"

HISTORICAL SOCIETY.
1t Takes Possession of Its Room in the
Court House,

Yesterday the Historical Society of
Southern California took possession of
its room in the court house. Supervisor
E. A. Forester, accompanied by Col. G.
B. Griffin, the secretary of the society,
and B. A. G.. Stephens, director, went
up to the room, and Mr.. Forester gave
orders to the contractor and janitor to
let the society have possession, which
was done. A transfer company imme-
diately commenced moving the society's
bulky collection from the attic of the
Normal school, where it has been rapid
ly accumulating for eightyears last past,
into the society's room, and by night
had ton or more of books, papers,
relics, etc.. safely landed in the room.
The collection will be arranged, la
beled, indexed and catalogued. This
work will consume several weeks. The
room will then be thrown open for pub
lie use, during certain hours and sub
ject to certain regulations necessary for
its proper conduct.
The Historical society was organized
December 6, 1888, with twenty-five
charter members. Since that time,
meetings have been held in Justice
Austln's court room, through his
courtesy, first in the Nadeau block, and
afterwards in the old city hall.
During all of this time the society
has regularly held its monthly meet
lngs. At each meeiing papers have
been read on historical and scientific
subjects. Many OF these have appeared
in the annual publications of the go
ciety, some 4000 copies of which have
been circulated gratuitously throughout
the United States.
Through the investigation of the
members many important local histori-
cal questions have been settled.
The enterprise of the society has been
manifested by work which will short
ly be issued from the press. This work
contains officially certified copies, and
transletions OF the Spanish archives at
Seville, furnished the society through the
kindness of Adolph SAtro, ESQ. Of San

A Big Connecticut Bowlder.

The approximate maximum dimensions
of the "Sheegan" bowlder in Montville,

ance be made for an immense fragment
which has fallen from its northeast side,
the dimensions and cubic contents Of
"Sheegan" would approximate closely
to 90, 900 cubic feet. One point that goes
far toward substantiating the claim on
